Build Details
Forget Synthoceps, THIS is the ultimate melee build for Titans: it hits even harder, can actually get to melee and sustain itself there, and generate balanced Transcendence energy in no time.
Worm God Caress adds a stack of Burning Fists for every melee kill, which decay to lower stacks after 5 sec with a deccelerating rate. Those stacks will add 55% melee/ 40% glaive melee damage per stack for up to 5 stacks and a maximum bonus of +275% melee / +200% glaive melee damage! It also adds an empowering weapon damage bonus ( so no need for Radiant) of +0%/+20%/+25%/+30%/+35% ( does not affect glaive melee!).
Winterbite's shot ( which already does damage like a rocket launcher with a 3 ammo magazine ) will also benefit from this empowering buff. After a short delay after firing, the energy ball will also fire freezing bolts in a 20m radius at enemies, while it is in the air. So fire 1 shot to freeze the entire battlefield and get to melee in safety. Even better, while the magazine still holds ammo, its glaive melee damage will be improved by 50%(!) and each hit will apply 40 Slow stacks ( which will stun Overload Champions) and 3 hits will freeze ( so you can shatter with the next hit and also stun Unstoppable Champions).
The damage bonus for glaives stacks, so Winterbite can do +350% damage, ending with melee glaive attacks, that hit just as hard as a rocket launcher! Frozen Enemies also take 120% damage bonus from glaive/unpowered melee attacks! If you freeze an enemy first with a Glacier Grenade or freezing shot, Winterbite can hit for +890% damage! Thx to the Lucent Blade chest mod, 1 shot over the battlefields is usually sufficient to completely fill the block energy bar. Glaive melee also counts as a separate kinetic primary weapon, so can progress and proc ammo finder mods! Glaive melee is also affected by the Facet of Grace fragment! With it, just glaive meleeing 25 adds will top both light and darkness bar. Add 1-2 Consecrations and Winterbite shots and you can be transcend in moments again!
- Use Winterbite and fire 1 shot OVER the battlefield to freeze most of your enemies and fill your glaive energy bar
- Use Glaive Block to safely cross the distance without getting shot to pieces
- Switch to shotgun or pulse rifle and use Consecration to get your first melee kills/Burning Fists stacks.
- Switch back to Winterbite and slay away to get further stacks of Burning Fists.
- Use Consecration versus fat enemies with slam attacks.
- Transcend!
- Slams are your main source of death, so...
- When you notice an enemy readying for a slam attack, use Glaive Block to negate it or Thruster to get back!!!
- Keep Glacier Grenade ready to quickly freeze enemies or block sight lines.
- Use the Heavy Ammo Finder weapon mods on your pulse rifle and shotgun.
- In boss fights try to face the inside of the arena with most of the adds when spamming Consecration to get kills and maintain Burning Fists stacks.
- after 3 glaive melee attacks ( 1 combo ), tap Glaive Block to skip the cooldown before the next melee attack to greatly improve your dps!
- Use Finishers to generate Void Shields for 10sec.
- with Burning Fists x4 or x5, the Consecration scorch wave is often enough to slay even regular yellow bars, so save the slam and other half of the charge!
- Glacial Quake will restore your grenade and all melee charges, when it ends, so use them before activating the super!
