Destiny 2 Hunter BuildHot Potato Pants

Hot Potato

tldr; Use a solar heavy MG with incandescent as your primary. Swap to Bold Endings to clear ads and deal with overload champs. Swap to Eriana's to deal with barrier champs, yellow bars and bosses. Swap to your MG to take advantage of solar surge or to reset yourself and your timers when you miss a Lucky Pants rotation.

This build emphasizes optimizing rotating through your weapons to make sure you aren't losing out on free damage with Lucky Pants and Solar Surge mods. You want to be using your heavy MG as your primary, it doesn't have to do the heavy lifting on kills necessarily but treat it as your default weapon. If you ever screw up a rotation it can serve as a safety blanket while you reset your timer. The rotation itself starts with slaying with your MG, swap to Bold Endings to clean up kills and generate orbs. Get orbs and swap to Eriana's with surges or after Lucky Pants comes off cool down to deal with champs and higher enemies. Once you dump your mag swap back to MG and start again. The build is fairly flexible, screwing up a Lucky Pants buff is relatively easy to work around, same with accidentally picking up an orb early for surges. Don't be afraid to swap to that heavy to clear the deck and start a rotation fresh.

Weapon Perks

Perks are pretty key for activating stylish executioner consistently through out the build so these are what you want to be running

Bold Endings

• Headstone and Dragonfly for elemental explosions that generate orbs quick.

Eriana's Vow -With the buff in the Final Shape, Eriana's gains some utility as a niche ad clear option. While its main role in this build is to deal with champs and yellow bars

Heavy Weapon Slot

• Any machine gun with incandescent, scorch is a really nice way to activate Stylish Executioner.

Champs

This build specifically deals with Barriers (Eriana's and radiant MG with withering blade) and Overload (Hand Cannon with seasonal mod) and while not the focus of the build you can technically stun unstops with shatter damage from super though its pretty inefficient. Grapple grenade can be swapped with Duskfield to help with unstops by adding to sources of Stasis debuffs to get a freeze and shatter.

Abilities

While this isn't an ability spammy build, abilities still play a key role. Grapple is for movement mostly, the occasional melee is nice but not the purpose it serves. Gunpowder Gamble plays the role of our grenade, make shit go boom whenever its ready. Withering blade is for invis or anti-barrier on our MG.

Overall, it takes a bit to get used to, Eriana's Vow is still a bit awkward to use and the double lucky pants rotation can be a bit much at times. But when you can find your rhythm with it, the build can really shine in any situation you throw it in.
