For the build, Orbs of Power generated grant health on pickup through the Recuperation mod on the leg armor!

This build generates Orbs of Power the following ways:

• Attrition Orbs on the Noxious Vetiver SMG
• Heavy-Handed from charged melee final blows
• Arc Siphon and Stasis Siphon on rapid Arc and Stasis final blows respectively

Combining these health-boosting Orbs of Power with the Powerful Attraction mod on the class item allows your class ability to collect all Orbs of Power around you simultaneously - resulting in a giant boost in health regeneration on Thruster activation depending on the amount of Orbs of Power in the vicinity.

Having the Knockout aspect equipped also helps with health regeneration on melee, Frenzied Blade, or Consecration final blow - great for those situations when you need health regeneration, but no Orbs of Power are present.

One of the downsides to having Peacekeepers equipped is using an SMG with a low magazine that does not have a special way to reload itself. Once you stop firing, you lose all the stacks of damage granted from Peacekeepers VERY quickly!

What's very unique about the Noxious Vetiver SMG is it's ability to generate Dark Ether Charges thanks to it's origin trait Dark Ether Reaper! These charges spawn on rapid rank-and-file enemy final blows or ONE final blow on an orange-bar enemy or higher!

If you come in contact with OR shoot these charges from range, an explosion will be set off at the location that damages enemies and the magazine of ALL equipped weapons with the Dark Ether Reaper origin trait will be reloaded from reserves and OVERFLOWED!

This effect allows the Noxious Vetiver SMG to have VERY high uptime - allowing for the retention of maximum damage stacks from Peacekeepers combined with rapid jolt procs and even more Orb of Power generation!

The Dark Ether Keeper has the ability to stun ALL champions types WITHOUT the use of the artifact!

This is by design to ensure the build retains its potency in endgame content as mods within the artifact change with each major release.

This build stuns champions in the following ways:

ANTI-BARRIER CHAMPIONS

• When dealing with these champions, deal damage as you would any high-health pool enemy. Right before they are about to activate their barrier shield, hit them with either a Frenzied Blade or a Consecration slam to become Radiant for 5 seconds (Facet of Dawn Fragment) to grant all weapons the ability to pierce barrier shields!

NOTE: If you are using a weapon that benefits from ANY of the first column champion artifact mods, that weapon will NOT pierce the Barrier Champion's shield! It will instead retain it's ability to stun the champion that that weapon's artifact mod belongs to.

(i.e. using a Pulse Rifle with the Unstoppable Pulse Rifle artifact mod equipped will NOT gain ability to stun Barrier Champions after procing Facet of Dawn)

OVERLOAD CHAMPIONS

• These champions have now become much easier to deal with thanks to the Jolting Feedback perk! Shooting an Overload Champion OR a surrounding enemy with the Noxious Vetiver SMG with the Overload Champion around that target will activate Jolt - effectively stunning them!

UNSTOPPABLE CHAMPIONS

• This build has several ways of stunning these champions!
• Consecration ignites enemies, which stuns Unstoppable Champions
• Throwing a Glacier Grenade on top of an Unstoppable Champion will freeze them! Shattering the Glacier Grenade stuns them!
• Chill Clip on the Liturgy Stasis Grenade Launcher can freeze Unstoppable Champions! Landing multiple hits on a combatant with this Grenade Launcher will apply slow stacks - leading up to the target being frozen. Sliding while holding Liturgy will proc the Slideways perk - refilling the magazine instantly while also granting increases in stability and handling! Do this to quickly load an additional shot to quickly shatter the champion to stun them!
