Warlocks Have A Melee Build Now And It's Kinda Crazy (One Punch Lock)

I was very skeptical of this build when prismatic was announced, but it turns out it's actually very good. If you want to one-hit almost every enemy in the game, look no further. Thanks for watching and hope you enjoy!

If you’re wondering where the massive % increase in the thumbnail is coming from, it’s at 4:49. In reality, it’s more of an 8,878% increase. I was eyeing numbers when I did the math first and already had the thumbnail made. To get this much, it takes advantage of every melee buff in the video, including the Monte Carlo bayonet.

[@InsomniacSrategies]

For anyone that doesn’t have this, Inmost + Synthoceps is another really good option - class ability and/or grenade before you slide and it bumps up that slide nicely 😊

[@RoxMySocks]

I've been running a similar build since the expansion came out that I brainstormed before launch. It's astonishing how flexible it is. Feed the Void completely eliminates the need for discipline, allowing you to build into strength a lot more freely. Plus, there's a lot of weapons that can synergise with this build. Khvostov, Buried Bloodline to name a couple. Not to mention the 3 exotic class item combos you could use, heart of inmost light/assassins cowl/necrotic with synthoceps, add variety if you wanna change on the fly. It's one of the most refreshing builds I've ever played on warlock.

[@ImNot5YearsOld]

This is cool! I might give it a shot. My hobby this season is trying to think of a build for every exotic class item I get.

[@Richardlucky]

in my opinion synthos works better with inmost light, as you can juggle between your grenade (storm for jolt or vortex for weaken) and your melee without having to reply on montecarlo as the exotic. Tested it on master content and it melts champions, and when you are transcendent, it's basically your super, as you will be spamming buffed lightning surged, be extra tankier due to amplified/galvanic armor, and if you have needle storm plus heavy handed you'll be getting woven mail on orb picks after lightning surge giving you very good survivavility. Havent tested it on GM though as I'm scared to go that close up, it might work though. Great build nonetheless

[@tCruzin4Lyfe]

Is it possible to get two titan exotic perks on a warlock exotic class item? I’ve never seen a drop like that on any of my 3 classes, they always drop with one of their own exotic armor perks.

[@iraizen5768]

@@tCruzin4Lyfeyup got the same roll. It’s all RNG you just need to keep farming.

[@LizardWizard403]

This looks like a cool build just to goof around. Great video

[@frostmourne1986]

"When you think of melee builds you think of titan" not anymore honestly.

[@derpyjae802]

Aint that the truth

[@Psyshimmer]

Thoughts and prayer from a warlock main

[@derpyjae802]

@Psyshimmer that's what I've swapped too now since titans are in such a bad state. Speakers sight and getaway artist have been bringing me joy

[@BugTypeTrainer]

idk im kinda tired of everyone saying 'titan bad', like we get it. theyre in a bad spot right now

[@frostmourne1986]

@@BugTypeTrainer On the contrary, I don't think titan is bad. I think titan is boring. Prismatic titan is some how even more boring than strand. It is also a fact that hunters are a better punch class than titans.

[@Mark-wr8td]

def gonna try this when i get the class item

[@danrspen]

I think that Synthos work with Song of Flame’s melee so that’s probably a strong super choice too.

[@thereallaser5334]

Unfortunately it does not work.

[@iooiopolooooiiooouil]

Necrotic works on it though I just tried it

[@harryrew8460]

Wouldn't you lose frost armour from power orbs which is quite important I haven't properly looked at the build so I could be wrong

[@JackAnderson-uj9ts]

@@harryrew8460 you do lose Frost Armour since the Orb of Power gives effect based of super equipped and you instead gain restoration.

[@reapsforkeeps6528]

I love your builds vids man. I use them all the time. Very good stuff. Can we please get some Titan builds now? Can't wait to see what you come up with.💪

[@IAmMajician]

whats the point of necrotic if everything dies to the lightning surge melee???

[@MyNameIsNurf]

Use this same build but with Felwinter's. I have been maining this for a few weeks now.

[@diegichan]

@@IAmMajician this build with synthoceps+inmost light for ability regeneration

[@carlosvega211]

really fun build to play thanks

[@JAO_GG]

I found that my roll with apoth/syntho was extremely effective of keeping the gameplay loop alive by using all abilities, getting transcend, getting super, burning it then apoth refills everything or lets you spam the uppercut for short period. 💪🏽 then rinse and repeat

[@Chrjstheshadow]

Personally partial to running spirit of inmost light and spirit of synthos so I can run a weapon like lost signal to pump my darkness meter higher and go off in transcendence more

[@KnightKoR]

I finally just completed Dual Destiny and Necrotic/Synthoceps was my first drop!

[@jvsoloman]

Dope build. Now I just gotta grind to get necrotic and synthoceps lol

[@lilbuns29]

This build also works very well with felwinters helm, it will debuff and stun everything around it

[@alijahmartin9962]

@@lilbuns29this is the build I’ve been running for the last 3 weeks and it’s SO good. Yall…the weaken from Felwinters literally slows and blinds everything in the room on detonation. It trivializes everything.

[@jdotmay]

I literally have mained Monte Carlo since final shape launched and im just now learning about the markov chain melee stab....there aint no way

[@user-pe7iu7zm3l]

I would replace spirit of necrotic with spirit of osmiomancy or inmost for the extra 20% melee damage from frozen targets though. It gives more grenade energy and the grenade itself can stun unstopable champions. Facet of dawn is also a great choice for utility considering the amount of melee we have with this build.

[@harryHanson2708]

I haven’t done the dual mission yet is it possible to get the perk of winters guile and synthoceps

[@Reppen555]

Wow this looks way better than my prismatic titan build

[@KayronTho]

Cool build! I have Inmost/Syntho. Could that be better than a weaker poison than Necrotic grips?

[@michaelknight1458]

I have the same as you. I’m gonna try it. If you do, let me know how it does.

[@Wavmagik]

I would say yes because it means you don’t necessarily have to run Monte Carlo if you want to use a different weapon exotic

[@KayronTho]

@@michaelknight1458 Will do. Won’t be on til tomorrow though.

[@harryrew8460]

Could I just use the synthoceps without the necrotic on the normal exotic if necrotic ain't that important

[@ecguy6]

I made my own build yesterday with pretty much all same fragments but I have felwinters Helm to debuff those few targets who survive

[@iron_serpent_2293]

Been wanting that spirit of necrotic and Synthoceps combo for a while now. Just can’t seem to get lucky enough to get it

[@shanehall23]

Wish you the best of luck I've got a couple of them while trying to farm star eater and apotheosis It's like it doesn't exist I have over 60 class items and it still hasn't dropped yet

[@sethberger1119]

Spirit of inmost with synthos is great too

[@Oplix]

This roll was one of the first I got on my warlock but I play Ager's/Getaway

[@taylormorgan3669]

I made almost exactly this build when exotic class items came out, it’s really bad in gms since it does so little damage which surprised me, you can one hit the taken ogres in the class item mission yet your barely taking out ads in gms which is mental, I some how made it through the gm still but this build is really only good in mid to low tier content

[@hectornieves537]

Should use a weapon of sorrow instead of monte for necrotic. This build would be better with inmost if you want just the melee and more uptime with it

[@theexalt3060]

Lol been running this for a min. Works even better if you have ossiomancy

[@josephbeerer7779]

Ah yes, the real melee centric titan.

[@theburt112]

This is also good if you run trench barrel.

[@GWeekly2904]

Wait isn’t spirit of syntho don’t work with lightning surge?

[@matelovasz9480]

It always worked for me since the class items came out. Only spirit of star-eater is bugged for warlock's needlestorm, that I know of.

[@historyhelp3093]

nice!!!!!!

[@abisnaily]

i like this build i just wish monte carlo didnt hit like a thumbtack

[@Orbitalbomb]

I mean necrotic and syntho is fine but since I got Assasin and syntho I’m gonna use it instead

[@LitCamAct1]

This build is also busted in PVP within the right circumstances. Potentially one-surge kill within an enemy group of 2

[@TheMinor7th]

IMO easier content and exotic class item builds are for basically less than one percent of D2 players. You have managed to put them both together.

[@lolosh99]

When I think melee I think hunter

[@matthewfritsche4870]

i have a fun build i made but with inmost a while ago everyone copying :(

[@HoopleHeadUSA]

HOIL + Syntho for me, shoot I’d even take Assassins over Necrotic

[@virtualshift]

Another build video featuring a certain role of class item I will never get, I can't tell you how happy that makes me to see /s

[@quickdemize]

melee warlock is best warlock

[@livingalife8879]

Sorry king but plunderthabootys thorn build is the same but 1000% better Also i tried this well before the video. Glaive is better defence and damage in most scenarios

[@darrenturner447]

But no! Titans can’t have bonk hammer!

[@VoidChakra]

Titans are just nurfed due to hunters we all know that titans should just be immortal healing tanks that agro enemies, lol while hunters and warlocks are the aoe gods of deatruction and healing.

[@patricksullivan9713]

Poor titan, everyone meles better than them with their synthocept exoic

[@nullpointer5603]

Eh? Consecration is really good though on titan. Thunderclap is also pretty potent. The complaint is that Titan only gets melee builds whereas the other classes also get to do other builds.

[@CHEA7CODE]

Nah I'm cooking on my titan, not as diverse as other classes ofc but got a mark with abeyant and synthos, all strand abilities with consecration and the extra trackin is too fun

[@lorddarkflare]

You don't understand the issue with titans. It is a problem of variety, not power.

[@supercuz323]

Why u tryin this in low level content homie?

[@cwh1944]

can you show your builds in harder content please. In normal content, all somewhat competent builds look ok

[@KayronTho]

Not all content is end game. Stop locking content creators behind serious only builds man

[@jekkin8972]

A similar build I run with spirit of the assassin and sytho works great in most content minus gms

[@griqs]

​@KayronTho it's not about that is about wondering if it's viable in content where you can actually take it in. Just because someone is an endgame player doesn't mean they shouldn't be allowed the variety that a build could provide at a high level.
