Build Details
Exotic Class Item
- Osmiomancy (I tested the build with this the most) or Inmost Light (it should work similar.)
- Any (I use Star Eater when I have no matching weapon to my super, Swarm helps building trascencende, Verity could work if you are taking advantage of matching element to your grenade, etc you get the point) this makes the build even more flexible. I tried back when TFS released with Harmony and Aberrant Action, and it makes even easier to get your super back, to replenish your abilities, but kind of the same idea, any its good as long as the first one is osmiomancy or inmost light at least imo. In general its really flexible the build. You can even swap sacrifice for any fragment to replenish Trascendence depending or what you're lacking, or if using a Kinetic Weapon (Facet of Grace, Sacrifice or Devotion).
Weapon loadout and mods Actually the build its not restricted to the weapons, you could use whateaver you want, demolitionist weapons should work amazing, as well as mods you could match your siphons, surges, resist mods, depending the activity your doing, Just priorize the stat distribution, and matching the needed fragments explained in the next section.
Fragments and Trascendence meter As I mentioned you can work around with this build as its flexible af, when TFS released I was using Grace for kinetic (Khvostov and Outbreak) trascendence meter, but when not using kinetic I try to use Devotion, Sacrifice or Balance cause you can really mess around depending if I feel something is lacking (ligh or dark).
How it works As I said in the gameplay loop its just and endless ability spam, a fantasy I always had since I started playing destiny, in summary you spam you abilities until you run out, at this point you should have Either Super or Trascendence, use any of them so you can keep spaming, I prefer using super to refill abilities and with trascendence get a lot of the meter back with the mods and kills, then super (if you need for dmg phase you can ignore that and use trascendence its fine).
Artifact Mods I made this build when TFS released, but this build really works with any Artifact mods due to being a spam of different elements so at least you take advantage of something when using it.
But currently with Arc, void and strand artifact mods make this again really strong spaming Bolt Charges, unraveling and spamming Volatile with your gl, or more bolt charges with Psychopomp
Mid-Endgame This build definitely works best on Mid-Endgame content like Master or below for raids, dungeons or onslaught and high add density due to the ability regen, but thanks to some Fragments like those I mentioned it can be fixed to almost every content.
Final note I really like this build cause it lets me spam abilities and looping between them, super and trascendence, at some point you have done at least one kind of elemental dmg feeling like an Avatar. Storm Grenade - Arc, jolt Hellion, Song of Flame - Solar, scorch, ignitions Arcane Needle - Strand, unravel, tangles Trascedence "Freezing Singularity" Nade - Void, Weaken | Stasis, slow and freeze.
- Storm Grenade: Use it to jolt targets. Thanks to your Exotic Class item (Osmiomancy in this case, Inmost Light should work similarly), you'll regain a lot of energy. You'll also get amplified and devour, initiating the ability spam loop.
- Phoenix Dive: Use it to cast your hellion. Your class ability should recharge faster due to your light buffs (Amplified, Devour) with Facet of Hope. If Devour runs out because you couldn't get kills with the grenade, hellion can proc it, so if there's any grenade energy left to charge hellion could get it back, or a demolitionist weapon like vs velocity baton.
- Arcane Needle: Use it between abilities to spawn tangles and explode them or throw them.
- Super or Transcendent: After spamming abilities, you'll either have your super or transcendent up with the balance of fragments and your weapons or mods. I recommend using your super first.
- Super: This allows you to spam all solar abilities, making you almost unkillable (tested on grandmasters like a panic button). 7- Ability Recharge: All your abilities come back when the super ends. Spam them again, then use Transcendence.
- Transcendence: Spam abilities with transcendence.
Summary: It sounds convoluted, but it's pretty simple really. Just spam abilities. There you go, an Avatar Warlock Build.
