The full power of Sanguine Alchemy comes from its ability to boost weapon damage by 25%, but only for weapons that match your equipped Super's element. Let’s go deeper into how this exotic works and why it’s a top-tier choice for Solar Well of Radiance Warlocks in The Final Shape.
Sanguine Alchemy + Well of Radiance Warlock – Full Breakdown 1. Exotic Perk – Blood Magic (Full Benefits) While standing in a Rift or Well of Radiance, you gain:
25% weapon damage bonus, but only for weapons that match your equipped Super’s element (Solar in this case).
Extended Rift/Well duration on weapon kills (does not work in PvP).
Greatly increased reload speed when inside a Rift or Well.
This makes Sanguine Alchemy a hybrid exotic, offering both support and high DPS potential, depending on how you use it.
- Synergy with Solar Well of Radiance Warlocks 🔥 25% Solar Weapon Damage Bonus = Big DPS Gains Since Well of Radiance provides Radiance, you get 25% bonus damage to all weapons while inside it.
- Stacks with other damage buffs (Weapon Surges, Weapon Traits, Activity Modifiers)
Best Solar weapons to use inside Well:
Cataclysmic (Solar Linear Fusion Rifle) – Boss melting potential.
Sunshot – Ad-clear monster with 25% bonus damage.
Briar’s Contempt (Solar LFR) – Perfect for sustained DPS in raids.
Incandescent weapons (like Solar Ammit AR2 or BXR-55 Battler) – Scorch spreads even harder.
⚡ Extended Rift/Well Uptime Weapon kills while inside a Healing Rift or Well of Radiance extend the duration in PvE.
In Raids, Dungeons, or Grandmasters, this means: ✅ Longer Well uptime for boss damage. ✅ More team sustain in difficult encounters. ✅ Less reliance on Well cycling in activities where staying in place is key.
Step 1: Use Melee to Scorch and Trigger Radiance. Step 2: Cast Rift and Stay in Rift for Bonus Weapon Damage Step 3: Use abilities as available. Step 4: Cast Well of Radiance early and often (communicate with team to have it available for damage phase) Step 5: Use Glaives to generate special ammo Step 6: Conserve Lord of Wolves (High DPS weapons) for Damage Phases. Step 7: After Casting Well of Radiance, You Could Swap Subclasses and still gain bonus damage with matching weapon types.
