Build Details

How It Works

Ergo Sum:

Your primary weapon that never runs out of ammo. Heavy attack whenever it's charged, and despite arc conductor you'll be wanting to constantly swap off whenever your dodges charge to pop a clone and throw your melees and swapping back to do another heavy attack. You should get transcendence extremely quickly.

Multikills with Ergo Sum make you amplified (30% DR) and grant melee energy.

Apex Predator:

A damage option against beefier targets. Never waste this ammo on tormentors.

Blast Furnace with kinetic tremors:

Makes taking care of exploding shanks very easy and breaks barrier shields.

Orpheus Rig:

The backbone of this build. Allows for super spam and allows you to throw out abilities more often. Use your tether on pretty much every round except for rounds that are after a building phase (unless it’s on a side where all of the adds are grouped up super tight). Make sure you put your tethers in the correct places!

Orbs of power:

A source of survivability. Picking these up grants health, regen, overshield and weapon surge.

Withering Blade:

A source of crowd control that you should be using CONSTANTLY as soon as you get them.

Arcbolt Grenade:

It's only purpose is to be thrown and be a way for you to get amplified. If you don't have any arc abilities you cannot go amplified by arc weapon kills.

Threaded Specter:

Your greatest source of survivability and a way to alter the behavior of enemies. Shanks will flock to it. Dodge as much as you can.

Winters Shroud:

A source of survivability (50% DR on cast for 4 seconds) and a way for you to get class ability energy faster. Dodge and throw melees as much as you can!

LUCKY PANTS:

Something to switch to if a target is too large (demolitionists, tormentors, etc.)

In-Depth Explanation

Video Guide
Gameplay Loop

Please get fallen and please at least watch the IDEAL video. Scroll down for swaps

This build was made to fight against fallen. Just keep your distance from explosive shanks and watch out for those shotguns! The IDEAL video below is how you'll want to play as I had more experience in that one. The video above is just to prove that it can go far even when it starts to break, it also showcases every objective.

Video for IDEAL first 10 rounds (post nerf):

Ergo Sum: Wave Frame Arc Conductor

Wave attack to clear adds, sword swipe after to get closer to enemies, arc conductor persists while holding a battery. YOUR PRIMARY WEAPON

Orpheus Rig:

Refunds super and ability energy on tether hit.

YOU ARE CONSTANTLY THROWING OUT MELEES AND DODGING WHEN YOU HAVE IT AVAILABLE TO MAXIMIZE ON TRANSCENDENCE REGEN

You need to be SPAMMING transcendence. You should be transendent at least once per round, two times on harder rounds. I know the sword is fun to hold but by constantly throwing out abilities your survivability goes way up and so does your lethality/crowd control.

Your sword powers transcendence and your transcendence powers your sword, giving it increased damage and ammo. Ergo Sum also increases the duration of transcendence allowing you to use it across rounds.

Lucky Pants Quick Swap:

There is a build swap for larger targets (demolitionists, shielded skybomber, and tormentor) here. It's the same build but with lucky pants instead of Orpheus Rig. https://dim.gg/37fofli/Solo-Legend-Onslaught:-Eliminate

Boss Room Build:

There is also a build for the boss room: https://mobalytics.gg/destiny-2/profile/ab9c8bc5-c7e3-42b6-a9ce-3e61a6d22a9e/builds/153d2539-8f9c-4032-9a0d-c04abc3a8703
