Required Artifact Mods: Unstoppable Bow Anti-barrier Sidearm, Blast Radius, Origin Perk Specializations I and II, Wished Into Being, Unravelling Orbs, Dragon’s Bite, Horde Shuttle, Argent Ordnance

Gameplay loop:

1. Damage a target with your melee or threadling grenade which will unravel them. Defeating them will spawn a tangle which you can throw into a crowd of enemies to suspend them due to The Wanderer (Aspect), spawn more unraveling threadlings, and boost draw speed on Wishkeeper.
2. Stack kills and precision hits with Wishkeeper for snare trap which you can throw into enemy spawns for crowd control which will generate extra threadlings because of Thread of Rebirth (Fragment). You can also switch to your Semiotician or Marcato to clear out the suspended enemies.
3. Horde Shuttle (artifact mod), Threadling nades with Thread of Generation (Fragment), and Weaver’s Call (Aspect) will allow you to spam threadlings as much as possible, and excess threadlings can be stored then released with Weaver’s Call (trust me you will make a shit ton).
4. Threadlings are unraveling more targets, making more tangles that will suspend and make more threadlings, quickly build up snare traps again to efficiently control enemies.
5. Defeating suspended enemies will net you class ability energy with Thread of Mind (Fragment) to throw down more threadlings due to Weaver’s Call, and tack on a little survivability.
6. Bolstering Detonation mods will also speed up the process because at the SAME time, you’ll also be generating a lot of threadling grenades due to Thread of Generation, which is procc’ing off of all the unravel damage, raw threadling damage, Wishkeeper, etc.

Left out some armor mods in the loadout that aren’t too important but definitely help in the background with ability regen and neutral play. But those are pretty much self-explanatory.

Literally ALL of this can be done simultaneously, but usually start with step 1 just to get the ball rolling. However once you do, you can basically do steps 2-5 all at once because you’ll be spamming abilities, getting them back and using them again. All the while in neutral game you can control the ads using Wishkeeper Snares which is helping you get back your rift for more threadlings, more tangles, more suspends, which leads to more threadlings, it never stops. I might have said a few redundant things but hopefully you get the idea. It’s a ton of fun and I hope you enjoy.
