Destiny 2 Warlock BuildMaster of Threadlings Prismatic Warlock

WHEN PRISMATIC WAS RELEASED I WAS ALMOST CERTAIN THAT THE SWARMERS PERFORMANCE WOULD BE LACKLUSTER WHEN USED WITH THIS SUBCLASS.

IT JUST FELT LIKE AN EXOTIC THAT WAS DESTINED TO ONLY BE USED ON A STRAND SUBCLASS

BUT I RECENTLY TOOK SOME TIME TO GIVE THIS EXOTIC A FAIR ASSESSMENT WITH THE PRISMATIC SUBCLASS AND I HAVE TO SAY I WAS MORE THAN IMPRESSED.

THE SWARMERS PROVIDES THE UNIQUE BENEFIT OF CREATING 2 THREADLINGS WHENEVER DESTROYING A TANGLE.

THIS ALSO GIVES ALL THREADLINGS THE ABILITY TO UNRAVEL TARGETS.

UNRAVELED TARGETS TAKE CONTINOUS DAMAGE OVER AN 8 SECOND WINDOW

WHAT MAKES THESE THREADLINGS SO OVERWHELIMG IS THAT EACH TIME A DIFFERENT THREADLING STRIKES AN ENEMY, IT REFRESHES THE UNRAVELING COUNTER

TO OPTIMIZE THE USE OF THE SWARMERS WE SIMPLY HAVE TO CREATE ALOT OF THREADLINGS

BETWEEN OUR PRISMATIC SUBCLASS, OUR WEAPON LOADOUTS AND OUR ARTIFACT MOD WE'LL BE GENERATING THESE LITTLE GREEN DEVILS LIKE HOT CAKES ON A SUNDAY MORNIN

WITH DEVOUR ACTIVE WHENEVER WE DEFEAT AN ENEMY WITH AN ABILITY

THIS EVEN INCLUDES FINAL BLOWS FROM WEAPON PERKS LIKE VOLTSHOT, SCORCH OR HATCHLINGS.

EACH FINAL BLOW WILL RESTORE OUR HEALTH AND GRANT US WITH AS MUCH AS 20 PERCENT BONUS GRENADE ENERGY.

WE'VE ALSO GOT THE WEAVERS CALL ASPECT WHICH WILL GENERATE 3 MORE THREADLINGS WHENEVER WE CAST OUR CLASS ABILITY.

WE'RE COMBINING THESE WITH PHOENIX DIVE WHICH WILL GRANT US CURE IN THE PROCESS AND IT COMES WITH A MUCH SHORTER COOLDOWN TIME THAN A RIFT WOULD.

WE'RE USING ARCANE NEEDLES WHICH WILL GIVE US ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY AT UNRAVELING ENEMIES AND WE'LL HAVE UP TO 3 CHARGES.

WHEN IT COMES TO OUR FRAGMENTS WE'VE GONE WITH FACET OF AWAKENING.

THIS WILL BE VERY IMPORTANT FOR THIS BUILD. WHEN WE RAPIDLY DEFEAT ENEMIES WITH OUR LIGHT OR DARK BASED ENERGIES, WE'LL CREATE A TANGLE.

WE CAN ONLY DO THIS ONCE EVERY 10 SECONDS BUT BECAUSE WE'RE ALSO USING THE ELEMENTAL SIPHON ARTIFACT MOD WE'LL BE ABLE TO GENERATE 2 TANGLES EVERY 10 SECONDS.

WE'RE ALSO USING FACET OF HONOR SO WHENEVER WE DESTROY THOSE TANGLES WE'LL GENERATE BONUS TRANSCENDNECE ENERGY.

WHEN WE'RE TRANSCENDENT WELL HAVE OVER POWERED ABILITIES THAT WE CAN SPAM SO THIS WILL HELP US GET THERE FASTER.

WE'RE USING FACET OF BALANCE SO WHENEVER WE DEFEAT ENEMIES WITH LIGHT BASED ENERGIES WE'LL GENERATE 10 PERCENT BONUS MELEE ENERGY.

AND WHEN WE DEFEAT ENEMEIS WITH DARKNESS BASED ENERGIES WE'LL GENERATE AN EXTRA 10 PERCENT GRENADE ENERGY.

THE MAJORITY OF OUR FINAL BLOWS ARE GOING TO COME FROM THREADLINGS WHICH MEANS WE'LL BE TRIGGERING THAT BONUS GRENADE ENERGY MUCH MORE OFTEN.

WE'RE USING FACET OF PURPOSE WHICH IS WHAT WE'LL NEED TO GAIN WOVEN MAIL.

WE'LL NEED TO CREATE ORBS TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN AND THATS WHY WE ARE USING HELMET SIPHON MODS AND REAPER CLASS ITEMS MODS TO GENERATE ORBS OFF OF WEAPON FINAL BLOWS.

TO ADD AN EXTRA LEVEL OF SURVIVABILITY WE ARE USING FACET OF PROTECTION.

WHENEVER WE'RE SURROUNDED BY ENEMIES, WE'LL HAVE A 15 PERCENT BONUS IN DAMAGE RESISTANCE BUT WHEN WE ARE TRANSCENDENT THAT WILL BE INCREASED TO 25 PERCENT.

BETWEEN WOVEN MAIL, PHOENIX DIVE, DEVOUR AND FACET OF PROTECTION I THINK WE'LL BE IN A GOOD POSITION AS FAR AS SURVIVAL GOES.

SINCE WE ARE USING GRENADE KICKSTART WE'LL CONVERT ARMOR CHARGES INTO GRENADE ENERGY WHENEVER WE USE OUR GRENADE.

WHEN IT COMES TO THE CHARACTER STATS THAT WE'RE FOCUSING ON, RESILIENCE IS THE BIG ONE TO REDUCE THE OVERALL AMOUNT OF DAMAGE YOU TAKE

AND FROM THERE IT WILL BE RECOVERY, DISIPLINE AND THEN STRENGTH.

WHEN IT COMES TO OUR LOADOUT WE WOULD IDEALLY LIKE TO ENCORPORATE WEAPONS THAT CREATE THREADLINGS.

SLICE WOULD ALSO BE A GREAT COMBO PERK. THIS WOULD NEUTER OUR ENEMIES DAMAGE BY 40 PERCENT.

THE WISH-KEEPER WILL BRIDGE THE GAP IN THAT LOSS OF SUSPENSION ABILITY.

THIS CREATES SUSPENSION TRAPS THAT WOULD PAIR UP WONDERFULLY WITH ALL THESE THREADLINGS.

THE WISH-KEEPER ALSO HAS THE OPTION OF HAVING HATCHLINGS AS ONE OF ITS REFITS.

I LIKE TO RESERVE THE THORN FOR WHEN OVERLOAD CHAMPIONS ARE PRESENT. THIS HAND CANNON IS JUST SO STRONG AND IT PAIRS UP SO WELL WITH STRAND

OUTBREAK PERFECTED IS ANOTHER OPTION THAT WILL SYNERGIZE VERY NICELY.

THIS WILL HANDLE BARRIER CHAMPIONS RIGHT NOW AND ITS GOING TO MELT YOUR OPONONNETS WHEN THOSE SIVA CLUSTERS AND THREADLINGS START GOING TO TOWN.

I LIKE PAIRING THESE WITH THE INDEBTED KINDNESS.

ITS A POWERFUL ROCKET SIDEARM THAT HAS THE OPTIONS OF LEAD FROM GOLD AND PERMEABILITY.

I LIKE THIS COMBINATION BECAUSE IT KEEPS ME LOADED UP ON AMMO AND IT LETS THIS BECOME A STRAND WEAPON.

YOU'LL BE CREATING SO MANY THREADLINGS WITH THIS BUILD THAT YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO SIT THERE AND WATCH THEM DO THEIR THING SOMETIMES.
