This weapon generates blight as it deals damage. While not firing, blight depletes, and the magazine is gradually refilled. Reload the weapon to convert stored blight into Blighted Seekers.

Armor

Damaging a powerful combatant or Guardian with an ability temporarily increases weapon damage of the same type. Defeating that marked target with damage that matches the element creates an elemental pickup.

Build Details

How It Works

The build centers around Whirling Maelstrom, meaning you need to be throwing tangles constantly. You essentially have infinite grapple with this as long as you are grappling to the tangles and you can add that as another damage source. The Ensnaring Slam is mostly used to get you landed from the air and provide another CC without sacrificing the grenade slot for shackle. This can be slotted with Threaded Specter or Widow's Silk just as easily, but widow's silk feels like a waste if you're constantly grappling tangles. Foetracer provides a consistent x4 surge to your strand weapons for excellent damage, and the Lotus-Eater adds a chunky way to apply volatile to everything.

The build already feels strong, but will definitely feel even better with the upcoming Act 3 artifact perks.
