The BEST Builds to DOMINATE Onslaught on EVERY Class! (Destiny 2)

[@mybrutaltruth9359]

Hey bub, I don't message often but just wanted to say I appreciate your channel... I have brain damage and difficulty with comprehension and issues with memory... so your videos are extremely helpful to me.... Thanks so much because I know it isnt easy making these videos, (from what I have been told).... D2 is only game I play now because it is so hard to learn a new one anymore.... Keep it up!!! ( I am on fixed income, otherwise I would definitely donate to channel bub... Thought that counts? lol)

[@AboveDestiny]

Dude thank you so much!!! The videos are a lot of effort, but comments like this make it all worth it. Really appreciate it and hope you enjoy the builds!

[@mybrutaltruth9359]

I am 50+ years old, so I say this as an older fella and as a fan, I am frankly honored that you responded... I will always watch whatever you put out on D2... Your hard work is definitely appreciated by many, I am 100% certain, even if they don't understand how much work goes into it... lol. Thanks for all you do for our community... @@AboveDestiny

GOAT Builds all of them! Onslaught won't know what hit it - including the DIM builds makes the process a snap to jump right in, great job as always!

[@AboveDestiny]

Thank you brother!!!

[@SilkyJohnson7]

Ive been using Tommys Matchbook with Phoenix Protocol on my Well build. You can mag dump on a boss and get 1/4 of your super without even getting a kill. Also procs like 3-4 ignitions. Between Rays of Precision, Ember of Combustion and Tommys catalyst scorching enemies, everything ignites

[@AboveDestiny]

Sounds dope dude!!

[@johnalbone30192]

The thing with ember of benevolence is it gives you unlimited nades. Your nade is almost full in 10 seconds.

[@ohdeer2069]

Love the builds. My go to has been Orpheus hunter paired with final warning. Adding unraveling and threadings to a tethered group just causes big damage. Final warning is also a damage monster capable of killing everything besides boss targets

[@AboveDestiny]

Thanks dude! And Final Warning is SO underrated!

[@thebhoy8561]

For gyrfalcons I’ve been using crafted hollow denial with lead from gold and repulsor brace for since it overcharged trace rifle. Then i use levi’s breath for the exotic because its just so good against tormenters. I’ve also just used graviton lance to death with this build.

[@AboveDestiny]

VERY good options for Gyrfalcons as well!

[@miloherring]

I’ve been using a Stasis Titan with Hoarfrost-Z and Verglas Curve. Stasis crystals everywhere.

[@AboveDestiny]

I bet that’s a ton of fun too haha!

[@koldruler]

You gave me some new inspiration!! Appreciate the video!

[@raijinlmfao]

i love that banner of war was both the ad clear build and boss dps build lmao

LMAO it really just do be that good

Ruinous Effigy with Gyrfalcon missed opportunity Above!?​@@AboveDestiny

[@Legendforged]

It's honestly disappointing lol. I like BoW don't get me wrong, but its been *the* build for so long now. I love watching build guide videos and stuff but it honestly feels bad to hear the same build getting re explained because it's just still that much better than other builds. Bungo please buff other builds.

[@ThriveOnEgo_]

[@bull3t209]

@@Legendforgedprecious scars on solar is pretty good and hoarfrost z with glacier nades and salvations grip is really fun for blocking off lines of sight and delaying ads

[@gregphipps7082]

I’m using that on my hunter with graviton lance too. 👍👏👏👏 averaging about 350-400 orbs per 50 waves

[@AboveDestiny]

Dude its nutty right?!

[@kailuun]

I tried out the Hunter build in Onslaught, and it cooks ads. It is a great build. I am going to try out the Warlock build, but I am going to swap out Sunshot for a crafted Zaouli's Bane and either Gjallarhorn/Dragon's Breath. If that doesn't work so well, I will switch back to Sunshot and Apex Predator. One weapon that did surprise me is my crafted Dimensional Hypertrocoid. That thing murdered waves of ads.

[@AboveDestiny]

Glad to hear it dude! Try an Explosive Light Apex if you end up running it. You'll always have buffed rockets with a very easy damage proc.

[@kailuun]

​@AboveDestiny As good as it is, I do likevthe ability to like the flexibility of Gjallarhorn. I will try both do both and see what works better for me. I did enjoy the Hunter build. I ran it will a crafted Retrofit Escapade and that machine gun put in work. With volatile rounds it deleted entire waves.

[@crimsongamingftw3892]

Me getting back into d2 after like 2 years trying to catch up and remember everything and seeing all these build videos: “was it always this complicated”? 😂

[@AboveDestiny]

Haha not really! But I promise once you get into it, it's not too bad!

[@solosnek]

Eyes of Tomorrow has been nasty as well, you can essentially have infinite ammo with the perk refunding if you kill 4 enemies, which is all the time!

[@AboveDestiny]

Oh shit I bet Eyes is awesome!

[@Memo_99999]

Here’s a cool tip, when tormentor spawns, you can just ignore him, he will go directly to attack the decoy, while he does that just clear the rest of the enemies before face him, because if you focus tormentor first, the adds will desimate you.

[@AboveDestiny]

Also, FORERUNNER SLAPS for Tormentors.

[@trichommaster]

sick video and thank u for the dim links awesome

[@AboveDestiny]

Very welcome dude!

[@BREAKocean]

I like buried bloodline with gyrfalcon. The weaken is nice and i go double sprcial with either tusk or supremecy and use special finisher. Tusk is nice for slice and supremecy for boss dps. And inpair it with edge transit

[@223Drone]

I used a suspend/banner of war titan to clear my legend run. The super did decent major/mini boss damaged and suspend spawned trapped the ads. Great video as usual.

Precious Scars on Solar titan was amazing for normal 50 waves onslaught, don’t think I ever went into red health, however I don’t think it’s the play for legend

[@AboveDestiny]

Dude I love Precious Scars!

[@SilkyJohnson7]

Precious Scars on Behemoth is crazy too. Restoration, Resist, Rime and endless crystals. I used Raconteur or Krait with Headstone, Undercurrent with Demo Voltshot (blows up a lot of crystals at once) and with the changes to Salvations Grip and the reserve buff to GLs, it was working nice. Aspects are Tectonic Harvest & Howl of the storm

@@AboveDestiny lol i know, but also 25% isn't just a little bit more damage either.

[@wyguy1712]

Honorable mention, people are sleeping on Strongholds with Lament on strand titan. Absolutely crazy amounts of survivability and ad clear. Just watch out for those cursed thrall lol.

[@Wad3y]

probably bc u get way more survivability on solar with healing nades/sunspots/ember of empyrean and synthos and on strand banner of war with synthos/worm gods, why would u ever wanna use strongholds over them??

[@Wad3y]

dont get me wrong s holds are insane with lament but theres better

[@jonahbrown5669]

​@@Wad3y"u get way more survivability with healing nades/sunspots/ember of benevolence"... All of those on solar titan only give restoration x1. That's it. Strand Banner of War + Strongholds + Lament gives Woven Mail, near infinite restoration x2, Lament damage heals you, and 50-80% (forgot exactly how much) DR by blocking with swords, plus the healing from Banner of War which applies to teammates as well. Synthos doesn't give survivability. Wormgod doesn't give survivabilty.

[@Heroiixz]

Which stats are priority for the gyrfalcon build? I guess mob, int, dis (obviously t10 res)

[@AboveDestiny]

The cool thing is that other than Resil, it doesnt matter too too much. I'd probably say mobility to have dodge available to start the invis chain if it ever runs out, and some discipline. Funny enough, with how much super energy you get from Exotic Weapon super regen you actually don't need a crazy amount of Intellect!

[@AboutTruckDriving]

I loaded the warlock build into DIM and it said there were deprecated mods on it. Haven't explored which ones, but just FYI.

[@freebee95553]

I disagree on Strand titan. To much of a hassle to be constantly moving around, seen a lot of titans using this build dying non stop, though a decent build but to hyper active when compared to meta lock and hunter builds where they can chill with their build. Stasis titan lance build been a better overall experience, non stop freezing with a wave frame Grenade launcher with unrelenting. Gotten led OS 50s with ease without all that non sense zoom zoom. Though other classes will hate you cause they can’t destroy your crystals as fast as you can lol

[@AboveDestiny]

Yeah I guess it all depends on experience levels with the Strand Titan build

[@TreckStrend]

Melee focus strand titan is trash. Unravel, threadling AND melee focus build is top tier. I got 1.2k kills on legendary and beat round 50 while carrying void hunter and Phoenix protocol

dont run phoenix protocol all the time, only run it when you pop well. its useless outside of a well. run your favorite ad clear build and then have phoenix as a swap for when you pop well. for an added level of sweat do this cycle, ad clear build, switch to apotheosis before popping well, pop well, use buff of apoth, switch to phoenix to fill super, switch back to ad clear build. get burst abilities with apoth for of shit moments, get well back with phoenix, keep slaying with your favorite ad clear build. skip apoth in the rotation when you get a tormentor cause it aint gonna help. dont use apoth for damage. just use rain of fire and spam rockets
