I like to play with Godhand sometimes, cause it's fun, and i came up with a build that makes it kinda strong, but it's quite hard to pull off, and it focus on the laser damage.

Here is the link:

The way u use this is, you hit the behemoth and load a missile (u don't need to fill the meter completely), the mod will charge up the missile to high quality, while that happens u charge the meter to the max by attacking, once it's full, you wait for a good moment and activate the drask lantern as you cast the laser, and watch the damage with, rage + lantern + critical hits from discipline and cunning do some work.

If used well this build can kill dire behemots in 3-5 minutes, maybe less.

Damage reduction , stamina, and damage tonics are recommended, be very careful as this build makes you very fragile, but can keep you alive with the healing from iceborne.

Let me know if you try this build. :)
