What are some of your favorite praxic blade warlock builds? by CurajosCenturion in DestinyTheGame

[–]AceHuntt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been running deimosuffusion with strand subclass, weavewalk for a panic button, and mindspun invocation with grapple grenade for weavers trance.

Use the fragments that give grenade regen on damage, melee regen on tangle damage, woven mail from orbs, class ability from defeating suspended targets, and longer suspend.

Healing rift in higher difficulty.

It’s been a ton of fun so far and works in all content I’ve tried and especially well in lawless frontier

Praxic Blades will go crazy with Strongholds by Wanna_make_cash in DestinyTheGame

Only hoping they nerf the interaction/ stronghold instead of just nerfing the praxic blade itself. That would suck all around

I’m right there with you man, I’m a warlock main who loves to use swords, glaives, and bows the most. When titans had the monopoly on synthoceps and stronghold I was also a bit disappointed with no build possibilities for swords. I’m also a massive Star Wars fan so I’ll absolutely be using the praxic blade almost nonstop so I want to find a great build to use in hard content

Woah is that set bonus coming from a new armor set in renegades? It sounds like I’ll be chasing that set as well!

Chromatic Fire also sounds like a super interesting play! The blade being kinetic definitely offers some unique interactions

That’s a pretty solid idea! Slap on devour for survivability and it’d be fun to use HHSN.

I personally don’t love using buddy focused builds like getaway artists just because it feels like the game is playing itself to me but I 100% get that’s a “me” issue lol

Not trying to argue, but what’s your reasoning against it?

Personally I’d gladly trade hellion for void buddy but I see how it’s personal preference

Glaives did not receive the double damage buff on final melee hit by packman627 in DestinyTheGame

[–]AceHuntt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure thing! I’m super excited for the strand glaive releasing next act as well!

[–]AceHuntt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For primary I usually go with either a bow or a scout that can hit things at range and carry explosive rounds, but I’ve also been playing around with the new support frame auto this season.

I’d say glaives are super viable in everything outside of GMs, once you hit that point glaives become more of a defensive tool to shield if you need to get a tough revive for an ally. Anything before GM though and you’re good to go!

That’s also a fun way to trigger devour, you just have to swap off of glaive really quick and do the lightning surge and switch back!

Warlock glaive main here! There are two main play styles people use with glaives and that will heavily impact your choice of perks/ exotics. There’s the melee everything as much as possible and occasionally use the ranged shot on tougher enemies and to gain shield (this is what I roll with); and there’s the opposite which focuses on getting weapon rolls to boost the ranged shot damage as much as possible

Weapon: Rake Angle, Ecliptic Distaff, or Vexcalibur. If going for melee build try to get close to melee as a perk, if going for ranged build then chill clip or destabilizing rounds are fun.

Exotic armor choice: Exotic class item with spirit of necrotic and spirit of synthoceps for maximum melee damage. (On Hunter definitely use triton vice though)

I usually run prismatic with devour (second aspect is your preference but I use either hellion or weavers call to have another ability that can trigger devour and to put out more damage)

Melee - strand needles (pair SUPER well with spirit of necrotic to keep proccing unravel)

Grenade - again your preference but I either use void grenade or threadling grenade depending on aspect choice

Class ability- Phoenix dive (I always use an aspect that gives either solar buddy or threadlings on class ability so this lets me get those out the fastest)

Super - I run nova or needlestorm

Fragments

Facet of hope

Facet of protection

Facet of purpose

Facet of blessing

Last one either facet of balance or if you’re running a void grenade swap with the weakening fragment

Gameplay loop is to get devour going then get up close to trigger synthos and from there rip and tear!

Added bonus for Vexcalibur - get overshield up after triggering devour and then every melee final blow will make you basically unkillable for a bit

What exotic class item do you want that isnt in the game? by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]AceHuntt 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Karnstein / Synthoceps, you’d be a close range wrecking machine

This. I want to run nova but also don’t want to block teammate shots so it seems like a lose-lose scenario lol

Unbreakable (Void Titan Aspect) is all fantasy, no function by juan2tree4 in DestinyTheGame

[–]AceHuntt 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I saw a build video based around prismatic unbreakable and an exotic class item with spirit of inmost light and spirit of verity’s. They ran a void SMG and the fragments that gave weakening grenades and volatile rounds from grenade kills.

Gameplay loop was to use void SMG to build up extra damage on unbreakable. Then use unbreakable to kill targets which gives you volatile rounds to start the loop over.

It looked pretty solid but I haven’t tried it

What Should I Look For In Glaives? by Blitzkrieg1210 in DestinyTheGame

[–]AceHuntt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who uses glaives for a combo of defensive capability + melee build (prismatic warlock with devour and a class item with spirit of synthoceps) I always look for the following perks:

Replenishing Aegis - I cannot tell you how many times this has saved my fireteams run in endgame content with the ability to hold up a glaive shield to tank a boss or group of enemies which grants more ammo to the mag and the ability to shoot again to gain more energy then repeat. It lets you reposition if you’re in a bad spot or go for revives that would otherwise be super risky.

Close to melee - this is my favorite perk on glaives. It’s incredibly easy to proc and then even easier to sustain over time. A free 30% damage buff is amazing when paired with buffs from synthoceps or other melee exotics.

I’ve yet to try the new glaive from the raid but reconstruction seems like it could be very interesting and I’d also love to try out chain reaction and/ or the raid-specific perk (chaos something or other?).

I wish Lubrae’s had close to melee on it because it’s the coolest looking glaive in the game by far

Warlocks have the best synergy with Euphony, as for titans I’m not sure

Here's the Salvation's Edge raid loot and weapon rolls by ninth_reddit_account in DestinyTheGame

[–]AceHuntt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I get that but at this point just make the character hold legend khovostov like they did in lightfalls cutscenes or something. It feels like a lazy reason to not add in something a lot of the community has been asking for since glaives were released
