How it Works

This rotation is MAINLY for DPS, making the general play of the build somewhat difficult.

During damage phases, bait and switch should be proc’d if it is being used, then rockets should be spammed. When a reload is needed, it should be done by grappling the ground. This instantly stops the grapple animation and returns ~50% of the grenade back.

After the first reload, apply an arcane needle for increased grenade regen, then immediately super. The damage from needle storm should return a grenade. Reload your rocket again and shoot off the mag.

From here make sure to constantly apply witherhoard, arcane needles, spam fusion shots and only shoot rockets when grenades are available. This should happen every 3s which allows you to ALSO have 1 rocket in the mag already from reconstruction.

Gameplay Loop
  1. Apply Witherhoard to boss
  2. Shoot once with energy weapon (if B&S Rocket)
  3. Shoot rockets until mag is empty
  4. Grapple Grenade Ground to reload
  5. Shoot rockets
  6. Arcane Needle
  7. Super
  8. Grenade Reload
  9. Keep rotation going from this point on, reloading with grenades when available.
