Build Details

How It Works
  • This prismatic warlock build uses lightning surge paired with spirit of synthoceps to quickly wipe out groups of enemies. Ideally you’d want the class exotic with spirit of inmost light and synthoceps to quickly rotate between all of your abilities.
  • We take lightning surge so that we can slide then activate our melee to warp forward calling down lightning damaging and jolting enemies. When paired with Spirit of syntoceps, this means you can activate this into a group of enemies immediately procing your damage buff to quickly wipe them out. We the make sure to bring the arcane needle melee so that we can have 3 charges of lightning surge to use.
  • We of course pair this with the aspect Feed the Void so that getting any ability kill will proc an enhanced version of devour. With this enhanced version we get 200 HP on kills and restore 15-40% grenade energy. This helps us to stay alive while using our lightning surge.
  • I then love to bring facet of purpose paired with the SoF super so that whenever we pick up an orb, we gain restoration for 5 seconds. That pairs perfectly with the Heavy handed mod on our gaunlets to create an orb every time we get a lightning surge kill to immediately keep healing afterwards. And of course SoF is one of the best Ad clearing supers since it has incredible survivability and damage.

Gameplay Loop

You want to start by getting an ability kill to proc your devour. Then run around spamming that ligntning surge on groups of enemies. In the mean time, don’t forget to keep using your lost signal to quickly build up your transcendance to gain back a ton more ability energy. When you come across minibosses, pull out your LoW or Choir of One to quickly melt them. And if you ever get into a sticky situation, pop your super for safety.
