I like how Twilight Arsenal is a shift not because of the DPS and debuff it can add but because its universally applicable unlike most of Titan's Supers where they just dont work on like half the relevant bosses in the game.

Really and truly, before Twilight Arsenal the "default option" (ie, none of the six melee supers can work and there's a Warlock in the same post code as you rendering Ward of Dawn redundant) was Hammer of Sol. Which wasn't exactly great DPS but it was at least *something*. Twilight Arsenal being able to present competent DPS at more or less the time it takes Slowva to explode and then the babies to find the boss again, while also allowing Titan to apply weaken at range, basically makes it a solid default because... Like, what else are you gonna use?

@Rios-ov3xiАй бұрын
Edit: I’m kinda stupid and severely misremembered what occurred when I tested this. So, synthocepts do buff the ignition damage of the snap, but only out of the super. I think this makes the melee do more damage out of super than in super. I’m kinda surprised you didn’t talk about synthocepts with the song of flame exotics. It increases the the melee by 2.5x, including the ignition. Though, the ignition only is increased if the first scorch is a melee and counts as melee damage, like with sunbracers. It’s pretty good with acrius if you can be surrounded, like in ir yut. It can also be used with apotheosis, which is kinda nice for an acrius rotation to continue spamming 2.5x ignition melees after song ends or just with a nova (though, in nova without star eaters feels counterproductive). I love the video and the amount of effort you go through to get good numbers

With recuperation you'd have insanely high health regen too, so survivability against non burst damage wouldn't be an issue either. Probably wouldn't be too tier, but would be very funny

Void wall much like thermite has often been one of those historically(talking ages back) “always been solid” effects, I think it’s just realistically the setup and application just doesn’t really pan out often because of how physical time and damage wise it’s not really concentrated the same way as other grenades which can lead to a lot of effect damage off target, 99.9% of the game that you’re going to get with it can be dispatched with other means even if it’s less damage thrown at them, and physically you can’t just plop the grenade on a solid target like a vortex or fusion, there is the canisters angle and bounce that can be goofed. It’s a lot of good on paper stuff the application is where it gets iffy.

a rotation/damage idea that has been bouncing around in my head since pyrogale came out: thermites are one of the better grenades for swap dps, so what if you used roaring flames and pyrogale hoil swap? in dungeon scenarios like avarokk or certain bosses with access to adds during dps like rhulk shadow thrall, it shouldnt be too hard to get roaring flames in a good window before dps, giving 15-20 seconds of a near verity level 73% damage increase to your thermites, alongside a damage super in pyrogale. to capitalize on the short window you have to benefit from roaring flames, the initial cast of pyrogale will generate a sunspot for 12 seconds and you can swap to hoil in menu during the cast animation similar to celestial -> foetracer swap. combining those two scalars and benevolence torches throwing hammer, you can seriously crank your ability uptime. normally the spam of abilities would be dps loss but i am curious if the multiplier from roaring flames and optimized ability timing in something like an izzy/wild/apex rotation could work out. this is probably a huge pain to realistically test, but i would love to hear your thoughts on the premise

From the wording used, it sounds as if you're confused on the subject of Solar grenades stacking their d.o.t. and its function pre-Solar 3.0. Sunbracers were initially underpowered due to Solar grenades at base not doing any noticeable improvement to damage when stacked vs just 1. That functionally changed in Season of the Haunted, where they gave boosted solar grenades the globs of lava that shoot out. The touch of Flame enhance to solar grenades is what allows them to stack on top of each other for massive profit. I imagine if you tested with a single solar grenade, or if you calculated the damage of 4? grenades with apotheosis veil to see a more even comparison

No I'm aware that solar DoT doesn't stack but globs do, I was just surprised it manages to do 200K a nade even with 4 stacked

Something i wanted to look at was heavy and specials doing extra damage against frozen targets, which i always presumed to be negligible but now that silence and squall is so close to nighthawk now and it freezes way more often now, i’m interested to see how it interacts with your fireteam’s damage, if it can surpass golden gun. Let me know if you’d wanna test that sometime :)

Would you consider the rocket dmg from Hazardous rockets ability damage because it procs off of class ability? And would it be better to run hazardous for your rotations or star eaters/cuirass for the bonus dmg??

Dumb question but does Titan’s axes provide a 30% weaken like Tether, Felwinters and Tractor or a standard 15% weaken like with most void stuff?

19:00 Not sure if you know this, but the reason for this is that while the solar grenade DOT doesn't stack (and never has in D2, only in D1), the magma pools they create DO have stacking DOT Now WHY they did it like that, who knows. Maybe they don't like that they changed DOT stacking from D1 to D2, so this is them starting to change it back ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm aware, it's just surprising that each nades outputs like 200K even without the regular solar DoT

Hey Aegis, Thank you for all the testing. I found it very interesting. For DPS purposes, I used to go with my Warlock in Supremacy, Primary, and Apex. I go with Rewind Rounds and Kinetic Tremors for my Supremacy, and BnS and Demo for my Apex. As I wear Starfire Protocol, the goal was to proc BnS with 2 shots of Supremacy (to proc Kinetic Tremors) and then go rocket/grenade/rocket, then reload. I usually shoot my full reserve pretty quickly. I know it's not an optimized DPS strat, but it's so easy to go with. Do you think it's still relevant in the new sandbox or not anymore?

The only thing that I feel was potentially missed here is the damage of verity buffed Gunpowder Gamble. Frankly just curious if it's actually any good, I assume it's not great DPS wise considering you need to enable it through add clear somehow. I'm also curious if Synthos on the class item buffs the Song of Flame melee attack in which case it SHOULD be better than Star Eater Scales IF it provides the full 165% damage buff to the melee, considering the melee is where the majority of the damage from that super comes, compared to only 70% from star eaters. Frankly I assume it just doesn't work which is a bit sad. Very curious to see the DPS setup video and particularly on Warlock how things compare with Euphony. Essentially if it's worth running Apotheosis + Star Eaters with threadling grenade and needlestorm with prismatic to build stacks for Euphony or if you get better overall DPS just using a star eaters Nova Bomb and missing out on those needlestorm stacks. Plus if it's actually better to run Euphony on prismatic with needlestorm and star eaters or if you should just be running Strand with normal Apotheosis and taking advantage of thread of evolution to buff all the threadling damage, considering you don't get the full 70% star eaters buff on prismatic anyway. Not having to worry about picking up 6 extra orbs to buff needlestorm would be nice to know about.

Yeah it seems strong, but mostly a buildcrafting thing not a DPS thing
