Hey, Thanks for watching! Find the written build guide here: moba.lol/LuckyPants

[@Pedroceo]

Good work.

[@MALICIOUS330]

Really appreciate you providing the DIM link as well! I like this written version too. I always watch the videos to the end too.

[@Tscarz1]

Is there a seasonal artifact build with this solar build?

[@reddfranzen9072]

@MacticsG1 i need some help mactics, im having a hard time with stats in armor for hunter, but its hard because i dont have a lot of armor for mobility. while looking into it i notice that both main dodges actually have a short cooldown and starting to question why most builds that creators make ask for high mobility stat. even more so i messed around with some mods that reduce mob stat (while only having 1 on) and found that i was able to get my dodge back within 15-25 seconds with 30 mob... so i need to know. why is mob important at all if its possible to get short cooldown with 30 mob and mods??

[@Lambchopprime]

Hey Mactics, did you know you can proc lucky pants simply by pressing tab twice really fast to bring your ghost out and put it away? I'm not sure if lucky pants was intended to work this way or not.

[@EricMalette]

Can we all take a second to appreciate not only the builds but just the slick presentation of Mac's videos? This is just so beautiful.

[@dahSweep]

Apart from the blatant and frankly ridiculous clickbait titles they are great. The titles are starting to put me off at this point. "One-shots everything"? Crimson huh, with it's bursts one-shots EVERYTHING? Just stop...

[@EricMalette]

@@dahSweep lol true I didn't even read the title it's hilarious

This was the single greatest build video I've ever seen so clear and thorough and we'll put together loved the side by side comparisons of with mods and without just awesome stuff man liked subscribed commented just to let you know ya got a fan in me now boss!

[@failfurby]

I think that Solar is the better choice for this build. It gives it a higher ceiling and more survivability. That said, I have a VERY similar setup for Strand, from Plunder's video, and I have completely fallen in love with it! Lucky Pants and Hand Cannons are back baby :D

[@ForeverLaxx]

I think I prefer the Strand version to the Solar version due to the higher amount of CC and the relative "Champion Agnostic" nature of how Suspend essentially deals with every Champion type (though Overloads can still be an issue without adequate burst). In easier content, Solar probably wins out because the need for crowd control and survival is lessened significantly, but in harder content, Suspending everything should win out despite slightly less DPS.

[@MarkSpizzle]

@@ForeverLaxx Overloads need a nerf I swear lol

[@failfurby]

@@ForeverLaxx Chill Clip Heavy weapons solve the Overload problem. I prefer Fire and Forget.

[@EulogyfortheAngels]

I can understand higher dps because of Radiant, but survivability is a wash because Strand can literally turn entire groups of enemies off whereas healing nades aren’t a guarantee to survive incoming fire.

[@failfurby]

@@MarkSpizzle no, in a Fireteam they aren't any harder to solve than the other two. Solo, they just take some adjusting to.

[@stevescruby1343]

As a Lucky Pants main, my heart is warmed by Mactics’ endorsement of this amazing playstyle.

[@-montithedefiant9690]

Don't be. Thats how they get it nerfed. Lucky pants has been the strongest exotic for years

[@Justmemyguy]

Yeah, Monti is right. Give it time. People will start running this build and it’ll gain popularity. Then it’ll get nerfed. Enjoy it while you can. Soon you too will join those of us who have lost our favorite builds to the almighty nerf gods. Haha

[@velmer21]

Anyone know where to get crimson? or a fast way to farm it?

[@stevescruby1343]

@@Justmemyguy I know……You are both right of course. The sun is probably setting on the Lucky Pants…

[@The_0G_Chad]

Yes, please no more excessive videos… my drang was killing years ago w/ 2 free range finder mods, my mini bonk, stackable one hit shoulder charge, dual pulse nade then HOIL ⛈️ nade. All my tools to solo the entire game…. Then streamers, and competitive raiders take a build that solo is awesome, but not game breaking in stacks it with 5 players I need immediately get NERFED. My only warlock build is Sun Brazzerz. The day they changed the snap to instantly come back…. Now almost a year later every video in the world because one famous streamer finally did it properly. But now that the super is amazing… This is my hunter build with a redirection 180 doing 75% dmg+boots and surge and radiant. The only thing I would have left is the girl Falcons+ lightning punch+ Amkhara gloves 3 knive trip grenade Come to think of it hunters and warlocks almost never lose their incredibly OP builds. Death star warlock and old top tree, Dawn blade for the best for like three years. Titan gets Nerfed immediately … stasis titan, shoulder charge nerf x3, Laura, helm Nerfed twice. Mini bonk, and finally HOIL that they absolutely annihilated it. Syntho nerf. One eye mask. Citans Rampart Our exotics pretty much suck now. No one can tell me storm grenade was more OP then this Hunter or sun racers or dual nade Dawn blade

[@Controverze]

This is great! I was already using a version of this, but now going to add some extras to it. I love using Explosive Personality with Disruption Break for extra kinetic dmg when destroying a shield

[@KLionHeart023]

I love your videos man, I'm really new to the game but my buddies and I have started to attempt the higher level content and I hit a wall making builds myself. Your build videos do a better job of explaining why you pick each aspect/fragment/etc and as someone who literally started this season, I appreciate that a ton! Still got some exotics to collect but whenever I get one that I know youve covered for a recent build I jump on it and its a blast to play. I cant wait to try this one out especially, I really havent built anything around a gun yet. Gonna try to catch a stream soon, you're the man, keep it up!

[@ahtopalian]

This build is *insane*- so much fun! Easily one of my fave builds ever. The only thing I’d advise is to think of your hand cannon as your “anti big target” firearm. Run an energy weapon you enjoy using that acts as your main and switch to your hand cannon to nuke big targets after activating radiance with your melee. Great video!

[@RogueSoldier19]

I was thinking of Malfeasance and Zaoulis bane for double HC

[@PeedgeMcDuck]

Your build video quality and clarity is impresive. Thanks for your work.

[@Lighthousegamer]

I love pairing Lucky pants with void & Malfeasance for endgame. It's still such a great exotic!

[@conormil1268]

Yeah for luckypants/handcannon builds id say malfeasance for void/strand, i pair it with a gnawing hunger with subsistence and demolitionist which makes it crazy with volatile rounds. With solar id say crimson feels better

[@imberaeris6768]

Have been running crimson/lucky pants since WQ, and it is really cool to see my favorite D2 content creator cover it! Love the guide! As a sleeper legendary option, seventh seraph revolver with reconstruction/harmony or vorpal is pretty nice.

[@joshuas1834]

Same, and I have that seraph with reconstruction and harmony too!

[@alter6243]

Just wait until we a get a hand cannon with kinetic tremors lmao, people are going to really start using this build

[@san0mad]

I've been running Malf with Lucky for a while now aswell, has never let me down. Getting 6 shots off with that 10x boost for 20k damage precision hits (pre hand cannon damage buff) handled majors and minibosses alike with ease. Especially against taken enemies. However, I have been enlightened to Crimsons capabilities; I will try it out.

[@DDaDoggyDon]

Guess burning thru damn near a whole mag = 1 shot.

[@shoulderpain4213]

This also works really well with Trust when paired with incandescent. Everything will pretty much just blow up. Personally I use a solar build with Trust and Crimson.

[@mystic2689]

Not bad!! I’m doing 7th Seraph Officer Revolver(Reconstruction and Vorpal)/Eriana’s Vow personally

[@enj0ytheride]

You rocking’ double hand cannons?

[@parkerreed8565]

Love the builds Mano! Keep up the epic work!

[@johnsmart1827]

Great Video. I have always been a massive fan of the Lucky Pants but didn't realise that they offered so much to a Hunter Solar Loadout. Keep up the great work mate.

[@dewellsy]

Subbed, liked and commented, amazing guide well written and very clear!

[@RAWKKC]

Sweet video, can’t wait to try! The cinematic shots are clean as hell too!

This is pretty insane!! Definitely subscribing for more builds 😁

[@MrTylerb94]

Absolute S tier content. Very concise and informative. Will definitely be trying this one out.

[@Drodian]

Great build and presentation as always!

[@calvin4848]

Great video thanks for all of your hard work!!

[@rockindoc1975]

Another fantastic build video. I use a similar build with my stasis hunter and malfeasance.

[@Sundance_one]

One of the funniest builds I’ve used in a while, not really sure if it feels over powered since it doesn’t always have an up time and the damage is from guns not abilities but I hope this doesn’t get touched for a while, makes the gameplay loop feel fresh again and I can be a silly cowboy, great video! c:

[@Lone_Wandering0]

(LP pairs well with the SotW cape btw) since it's focused more on gunplay I doubt bungie would touch it until it becomes hard meta,

[@Kinvarus1]

Will have to try this build later. Haven't used Crimson in many years, nor lucky pants either thinking about it.

[@jsheisty8790]

Thanks man! I just got the crimson and this build melts!

[@BapyTheSnowman]

just a quick word on handcannon options, if you want your exotic slot open for something else like a heavy-slot DPS weapon (though idk why you would) then a crafted Austringer with Triple Tap and Frenzy is a great alternative to any of the top 3 HCs in the video git does dummy numbers even outside of this build and will do even MORE in it give it a shot, its very smooth and fun

[@irunthepeg]

150k up soon Mac!!! Another banger vid.

[@jediwheels1781]

Honestly, Ace of Spades is really good with Lucky Pants as well. You can stack Memento Mori w/ the LP damage buff by pulling out your ghost and putting it away to trigger the effect.

[@tsathirtyvods2409]

The only thing I hate about MM is when you swap weapons then swap back you're memento stacks are gone, idk if it's a bug or not

[@vojtadejdar1417]

Another great one! Thanks Mactics!

[@Papoose187]

I’ve seen this build go around and decided to wait for the Mactics vid before I try it out as it’d be the best one!

Nice seeing this as a new build used to use malfaisence in gambit back before the 3.0 classes

[@scott80]

cheers for the build Mac

[@MutatedAmerican]

I actually have a similar build to this and I've been loving it! The only difference is that I only have 3 fragment due to having On Your Mark and Gunpowder Gamble, which is so good for ad clearing!

[@M1BHOMPSON]

This has been very solid and enjoyable for me, thanks for the vid

[@mr_self_explanatory3474]

Half a year ago i started with Destiny 2. I had few exotics. 2 of those were Crimson and Lucky Pants. 30 power levels under legendary.. I cleared my first solo lost sector with this combo. Team mates called me a liar. Since i had my first Flawless after 5 runs i had proof. Funny enough no exotics dropped though. This build was already really strong back then. Now,, its hilarious. Love seeing u push this build on your channel. Its highly underrated. Keep it going.

[@lostprospector7914]

As a a lucky pants enthusiast since the rework void and strand are by far the best subclasses to run it with

[@nathanmoser8914]

I'm intrigued to try it. Been enjoying my Knives + Tripmine Grenades with Young Ahamkara's Spine build. It's super fun.

[@dehdesh]

I feel like this could work really well with strand. That reload on grenade fragment with grenade energy on damage fragment is pretty rad and probably next to nerf unless they decide to go after grapple some more

[@AxisChurchDevotee]

Fact as I just did GM glassway with a crimson + Lucky pants strand build and dear God the damage is ridiculous. Even wyverns get melted in 1 clip after using suspend on them.

[@Kajand3r]

Very nice edited vid!

@mactics you are awesome. Brilliant build as always!

[@sergiocultrerajr4241]

Great video!

[@virulentone228]

I tried this out when i first saw it a couple weeks ago, and I use Eriana's for it at first. But while doing a bit of Titaning (I'm a Titan main) on the Nightfall last night, I got Crimson from a random Arc Minotaur kill. My god, does it tear through everything.

[@ep1cgavyn224]

love the video and the presentation is amazing, one quick question tho, did you use kinetic surge with golden gun, cuz i’ve heard that kinetic surge increases golden gun damage

[@Thunderstar7]

I can’t believe how close I was to already having this build. I just slapped a few kinetic surges on my lucky pants with last word bc I thought “its rootin tootin time” but I didn’t think it could be made actually good

[@marcocerioli9236]

I Tried the Crimson after much time, paired with lucky pants just yesterday and. Can say is impressive, a real game changer, you feel almost unkillable.The damage is even more than I expected, without make attention for mods or everything else. I will try again with this build. 👌🏻

[@mikemikeyz]

TQ sir for the content ❤

[@thecableguyx3558]

Appreciate this build. It's not half bad. Thank you.

[@IASEAGLE5]

Been using Lucky Pants + HC for years with excellent results. I typically run the last word or a dire promise with a bow for that quick hit and swap blinting play style. It's great both PvE and PvE but where this combo shines is Gambit.

[@edmahhhhh]

Mac with the HEAT as always!

[@papaspaulding]

I used to run crimson and lucky pants for so long, even before it's buff a couple of years or so ago they pair so well. although im pretty sure it did get a stealth nerf sometime ago last year as overnight it felt a little weaker (although still strong)

[@sheepy7076]

Ever since I picked up a hunter, I've been running sunshot/lucky pants just for the fun of it! I'll have to try your recommended picks to see if it'll be more fun for me

[@topdeckhelix8450]

YO I Started running this build literally two days ago! Hawk moon w/ surplus is my build and recommendation but can’t wait to try these other ones out too!

[@yeetus-8383]

Hawkmoon’s paracausal shot isn’t buffed by Lucky Pants even if you get to it before the timer runs out

[@neilduncan441]

This intro is literally off the charts! Beautiful video

[@gloriousguru4415]

Great content, thank you

[@taynardo]

don't overlook Last Word for your Lucky Pants builds! with its high rate of fire, smaller mag, and kinetic loader mod you can get in TWO full mags before the cool down hits to really take advantage of that fully stacked damage boost.

[@rakubby]

Another bonus of malfeasance is if you have a teammate running witherhoard. Enemies effected by Witherhoard are considered taken, so you get the damage bonus towards taken enemies

[@nbleface31]

O damn fr? Wth I didn’t know that

[@Arklay_98]

I've been using lucky pants and crimson for a long time and just really liked the combo little did I know I had an awesome build without realizing it.

[@krowbarmagik]

My inner cowboy is in love with this build Mac, thanks for making this video

[@e1357]

I had basically the same build during season 17, and to this day I maintain that explosive knife is superior to knife trick. The ridiculous homing these knives have make it very easy to directly hit targets, dealing roughly the same damage as a lightweight knife on impact then exploding soon after, basically guaranteeing kills on weaker trash enemies all the way through Day 1 raids and even GM's, especially if you land a crit. Your melee is now just a slightly weaker, more spammable fusion grenade that will chase enemies like the briefcase from Hitman. Having tried all 3 of your top picks when putting together my own lucky pants build back then, I found Malfeasance to be the superior, all round better pick. While Crimson builds stacks much faster, heals on kills and even full reloads on headshot kills, it doesn't do nearly as well when you're just trying to burst down a beefier enemy or boss as it relies on headshot kills to mitigate its poor magazine size. You will run out of ammo before your buff runs out, and I'd rather save my class ability for gamblers dodge. Malfeasance's innate extra damage burst is still nice in spite of it not getting boosted by Lucky Pants, damage is damage. Also, you're not running out of ammo before the buff runs out, you can polish off the rest of the mag, reload, swap to your energy to pop off a shot or two then switch right back for more Lucky Pants action. For healing, consider using armor mods to spawn orbs from charged melees, and armor mods on your legs to give a bit of health on orb pickup. This frees up a fragment and allows you to run healing grenades for emergencies

[@villainousgaming906]

Been running this for 3 or 4 seasons now been catching flack for it for just as long i appreciate that finally people are noticing how good it is

[@GLIMMERGANGSTER]

This intro is amazing…I’m curious on how you can get that 3rd person camera angle and cinematic zoom. Is there a instant replay that I’m missing?

[@juggz4287]

daddy mactics always on point with the videos❤

[@sebastianklima]

People suggesting Seraph revolver - on paper it is amazing, but in reality the 40% bonus from exotics against red bars helps a lot in difficult content and the range is an issue also. Because of range I prefer malfeasance, the explosion can take care of some pesky turrets from safe distance. I like also strand for suspension grenades, they make weakspots easy to reach and deal with the most difficult mobs easily (wyverns, tormentors). However, I will definitely be trying this solar version this week for sure.

[@drunkpandalol3718]

I've been running variations of this build since I started playing in season of plunder because it reminds me of borderlands. I came to d2 after playing borderlands games for years.

I started using a build like this but was waiting on a big content creator to perfect it or at least optimize it more. It's very fun since hand cannons are my favorite gun type and who doesn't like being a space cowboy?

[@RC-Sev]

Retraced path with genesis + disruption break. A usually worthless 2nd column perk i feel pairs perfect as trace rifles have an excellent ammo efficiency and fulfills the swapping weapon playstyle without feeling like a sweaty hot swap. I'd recommend giving it a try
