The fastest bow build in Destiny 2...

[@HynraCanFly]

Here's gameplay using this build incase you missed it; kzbin.info/www/bejne/inPUg2eLaMyrnKM

We need an actual Strand Bow. New NF Bow shouldve been Strand when we already have a Solar Vanguard bow. We got 2 Stasis snipers back to back for seasonal craftable weapons so hopefully next season we can have a crafted Strand bow perhaps

[@Adam-tu1qx]

Knowing bungie if they did add that itd be a lightweight bow

[@jonahbrown5669]

It's important to mention weapon archetypes. Not only is the NF bow a solar vanguard bow, it's a solar vanguard *precision* bow, the same as the other vanguard bow. Getting 2 craftable stasis snipers in back to back seasons sound bad, until you realize they're different archetype with COMPLETELY different feel. If you were gonna complain about getting craftable stasis snipers, you should have complained about this season's sniper and the season 16 one, since they're BOTH craftable adaptive stasis snipers, where both of them play similarly.

I wouldn't recommend swashbuckler with assassin's cowl. With the lost radar, you have no clue where to hunt the next person, and having only 4.5 seconds to get the swash kill really hurts with that. You can shoot an arrow or melee the air to lose invis to get radar back, but this is only the case after a full second of being invis. So, although you can now see again, you only have 3.5 seconds to get the kill. It's just not worth it.

[@LexiBelleGaming]

Change the magazine on your glaive to Swap Mag, and the masterwork to range. You'll have the same range and a faster ready and stow speed.

[@MusMasi]

kind of cool where everyone else has guns, rockets, lasers/fusion rifles, you will have a bow, glaive and sword.

[@carryofallcarrieslol5338]

Not using the glaive shield against people using the exotic shotgun is so tough. Because your hitbox is larger with the block they can easily apply the freeze or ignition by landing more pellets.

[@miller8886]

They have also fixed assassin's cowl so that your rope dart will track back to you while invisible.

[@DEMIG0D_SHRIMP]

I haven't been able to test it myself for my hunter yet, but I was doing some theory crafting for the bow-grapple combo you put in for the MOTW. I was lucky enough to get an elemental capacitor/swash point of the stag I was going to pair with a slide shot/elem capacitor astral horizon. The exotic I am going to try and build around is the Sealed Ahamkara Grasps because of the +50 AE boost on melee damage along with increased movement speed and jump height. Overall, according to d2Foundry, each one could hover between 70-100 AE after the grapple goes off and/or a melee connects (strand kunai or grapple melee). It isn't immediate in the moment AE like Oathbreaker's, but with the tracking ranged melee, it would allow for some pretty good AE priming before zooming in at mach Jesus. As of right now, as a fellow bow user, I'm continuing the infamy of Monarque with Astrocyte Verse blink-lock and a crafted Deliverance that can remove souls, or if I need to be a degenerate, I use a bow-swap combo with a gutshot straight hand cannon (Raconteur & Exalted Truth or Kept Confidence & Wolftone w/ Harmony). Trying to branch out on the bow builds for other classes, so I love seeing when you put out new videos!

[@TheKillerAxe]

I didn't know Oathkeepers gave AE, now I'm thinking about using them.

[@drewid8909]

Arbor warden is a 30 second grenade for thread of accent. Best airborne grenade(can even keep grapple). Pair it with wish keeper and the arbor warden suspension is always a headshot with wishkeeper (exotic perk). Have not tested with new 30 hp buff

[@katze9912]

Reaper works with endearing slam. I use it with Thread of Wisdom so every dive kill makes two orbs and a tangle lol. Pretty strong with Absolution on boots

[@rosschilds9627]

dang this is difficult to pull off, u make it look so easy, must have played like 10 matches now and havent been able to pull it off once… welp heres to continue trying

[@DrGrinsp00n]

Yea crazy how casually he pulls off something most ppl can even replicate after hours or trying I'm right there with ya

[@pacmanzy]

The “fastest” bow build is raconteur + lucky pants + erianas. You didn’t hear it from me tho :)

[@EmBre15]

AstrxN7 is that you? 😂

[@itskingcactus4618]

Hynra the class item mods do work on the dive, They have fixed this bug a good time ago I tested reaper, outreach, bomber, distribution and powerful attraction. (Pretty much all the mods related to the class ability).

[@roronoazoro8403]

Man you are insane it feels like we are playing different game. BTW I saw your video about nerfing bows (I don't play with bows and I don't like facing them), I don't think they should nerf them because good players like you are insane with them; in my opinion if something is hard to use you should be rewarded for using it well.

[@roronoazoro8403]

Imagine if they removed well skating coz the average player can not do it, That would leave the game bland

[@jonahbrown5669]

​@@roronoazoro8403Ah yes, the entire game would be bland if you removed well skating. My titan and hunter would feel so bland without well skating. Definitely bro. Bows deserve a nerf. Period.

[@exile9024]

We need a strand bow asap!

[@mythe6669]

Do you know if the duration of the availability of the grapple melee is tied to the momentum of your guardian after the grapple? I have the problem that half the time the game won't let me do the combo after I grapple and I just punch the air with a normal melee, especially when I try to pull off a bow shot in between.

[@celsonjunior9376]

dud w the comically large toothpick and scalpel

[@mikekoski7050]

I keep seeing videos of people trying to show off bow builds or gameplay and can’t help but think how funny they are trying to be impressive long lane peak shooting while your here using bow melee living inside people asses, I have started maining the gut shot bow and it’s my favorite thing ever

[@TheRaw31]

Yeaaah... this is the type of hunter I run from in Trials. 😅

[@cheukinator]

After you grapple, you jump and draw the bow. Does the bow have to be fully drawn before you shoot from the hip? You do this so fast!

[@miller8886]

You can consider stacks on stacks on legs and charged up on chest. Stacks on stacks give x2 charges per and charged up increaes total charges to x4. 4 charges and utility kickstart will give you 20%

[@mythe6669]

I wonder if icarus grip does anything on the glaive since it's always hipfire and as I understood it, AE only affects the ads cones? I could be wrong but hipfire seems generally more consistant in air with low AE. That's why I run either freehand grip or quick access sling on glaives.

[@mathieumarcelin8362]

yeeeeaaah thank you i looove

[@ChosenParanoia]

amazing, thx

[@DrGrinsp00n]

Yea now u just need Vengeful Whisper strand bow

[@jacobmckay4011]

Strand bow would intrinsically have better in air accuracy an with that you could rock harmonic targeting. But bungie won't break that wall rn sadly

[@tomakai3460]

When do we get kinetic glaive 😭

[@nevetsgonnaletyougo1940]

Never. I’m sure bungie already said something bout it. Something like glaives being in the kinetic slots screws up the guardians standing or something.

[@tomakai3460]

@@nevetsgonnaletyougo1940 ah that would make sense but tbf theres already some other weapons with goofy standing poses

[@firefly56embers33]

God i need judgement

[@mr_kingpin4835]

do you think the enigma is a viable alternative as glaive?

[@miller8886]

JoK is an aggressive glaive and the increased damage at 146 hps (130 for adaptive glaive) plus the 60 hps makes it so you can combo into a single cleanup shot on the glaive.

[@PEPXI_gkworks]

:) good game in burnout bruv, me and yinzerra faced ya >.< totally cant beat u guys >.< too good!

[@EraOfJack]

Does AE affect glaives?

[@Fr0styFriend]

For trials, would you recommend Wishender with this build? Or do you need the atra drawtime and ae from a crafted bow?

[@TheLogan771]

not sure about draw time, but the added ae will help you more consistently land the bow shot for your combo

[@nevetsgonnaletyougo1940]

The draw time is important. WE is too slow and you won’t be able to do what he’s doing.

[@JoseCastro-qy1js]

7 minutes if explaining when you can deduce this to just typical bow hots swap cheese

[@cheukinator]

Are you dim?

[@simplylethul]

"Cheese" 😂

[@Ghost-fc9hw]

The entire purpose of legendary PvP bows is hot swapping, and is it really cheese if Bungie has said its intended?

[@simplylethul]

@@Ghost-fc9hw "cheese" is a buzzword that whiny d2 players use for weapons or playstyles they don't like.

[@RiskOfRayne]

Stop using bows. Bungie should've never added them.

[@simplylethul]

Using bows to make players like you rage is worth it.

[@leovahn]

does the strand grapple melee activate swashbuckler? if so, biting winds 🫢🫢

[@JeffreyAppSteam]

Yes it does. It counts as a meele and grenadekill. They never changed that. They just change that it spawns two orbs when killing someone
