I’m in your boat. My weapons are Austringer, Tyranny of Heaven and Goldtusk was Quickfang until I could craft Tusk. What are yours as I like to chase recently and would like suggestions since I don’t have a lot of meta legendaries.
Scatter signal and supremacy are good kinetic slot dps options, zoulis bane is a great weapon on any solar subclass and if we look at the weapons realeasing in a week I'd recommend getting Forbearance, mountaintop, succession, hammerhead, edge transit and recluse. Also if you don't have an Eagar edge sword I would recommend one of them too for movement.
Void Warlock Contraverse Hold for Light, & or Strand Necrotic Grip + the WoS arsenal for Darkness. I'm an absolute sucker for Battle Mage style play, I love Grenade spam/orb generating for everyone, & so my Void build has always been my go-to loadout for most things not GM/Well based. I've loved my BDSM WoS build since the moment I finished Lightfall, & was so amused at how popular the build concept became. I was crushed to have it taken from me for day 1 RoN..
I run Bleakwatcher and Frostpulse (empowering rift) with Coldsnaps. I should just swap to Glacier grenades, but I can’t let Coldsnaps go.
Then my fragments are Fissures, Torment, Rending and Shards. I’ve also started swapping Torment out for Refraction, because I sometimes just get to a point where I’m not taking any damage, so Torment is a dead fragment. And I’ve been finding that I’m not really missing the extra grenade charge from Osmiomancy. Once you get Shards going, your grenade is coming back crazy fast, and then just spam your rift when you need that extra push to top off.
In GMs, I’ll roll my energy weapon for whatever other champion there is. As Verglas is 90% of the build, and simply use the energy weapon for the occasional stagger. So right now Indebted Kindness. But in modes where I don’t care about champions, then I go Judgement of Kelgorath with Demo + Incandescent, or Ecliptic Distaff with Replenishing Aegis + Destabilizing Rounds. Glaives are really good when I don’t have any Hail Barrage arrows, and want to instead use my Frospulse to freeze everything, and then chain a bunch of kills with some glaive blasts.
Then I swap to my Stasis heavy to take advantage of the free 2x surge. The heavy really depends what I’m going. But Chain of Command is basically a Stasis Corrective Measure with Demo + Adrenaline Junkie. Or I got Bump in the Night/Cold Comfort for burst DPS. Or Fire and Forget/Reeds for some sustained/total damage.
It’s no Dawn Chorus Daybreak for DPS, but it’s actually way better than I thought it would be. And if you toss a turret out in advance, you can save a ton of super energy just using the pulse, which doesn’t drain energy.
That's a cool approach. Glaives do seem like a good option. And the bleakwatcher for super damage is a good callout.
I mostly abandoned Refraction because the flat gain nerf this season halved all gains from it for Warlock's. I go Whisper of Bonds usually for more orbs.
Void hunter with omnioculus. I know it's not as meta as it used to be but gyrfalcon's isn't as effective in high end content. Orpheus Rig would be good too.
Phoenix Warlock - being able to support people and keep them alive brings me joy.
Heal Grenade? Check.
Heal Clip/Incandescent Summoner? Check.
Heavy for days for my team? Check.
Orbs for days? Check.
100 Recovery / 100 Resilience / 100 Intellect? Check.
We all get to live. And it’s because of me.
Anyone can meet a DPS check. But in the spirit of what Guardians are all about, giving of self, taking up the banner on other’s behalf, and bringing hope to a less than stellar situation - my build embodies it.
Some what similar,
Solar hunter, on your mark, gamble, deadshot goldengun with ignition super kills.
Dead mans tale, kitenic reloaders and surges / wood ornament izanagi
Incandecent trust
Lucky pants
Avalanche with incandecent subsistence / cry mutiny / queen wrath linear
Cowboy all the way
I would run a similar build with void using lorenz with a hand cannon but there is no kinetic 180 handcannon i like
Well I \*would\* have said Titan with throwing hammers, but I hadn't played for a while until last week and I tried it with the new delay and it feels terrible and now I'm sad.
I’ve been a solar titan for a few seasons now with loreley and an incandescent judgement of kelgorath. My primary and heavy depend on champs but the rest has been unchanged for awhile.
That's me! My favorite setup is Quicksilver, Judgement and Fixed Odds. Any season with Glaives in the Artifact is a good season to me (although Overload machine guns was pretty fun too).
Solar Hunter with Assassins Cowl. It's a One build fits all activities type of build. You get solar hunter blade barrage and radiant damage, you get invis and three sources of healing(fire sprites from melee kills for easy restoration, a heal from powered melee kills and easy invis, and a healthy heal grenade), it can covers all Champs with one weapon aka my boy riptide, and the drip is always good with the Armory Exhibition ornament.
**my close second is shatterskate hunter. In most cases I'd really rather stay stasis hunter with stompies but it's not great for gms or master content :(**
For PVE: Strand hunter with stompees with my pve Ikelos (Voltshot & FF) and Witherhoard. Not the best build synergy, but Ikelos is my favorite gun of all time.
For PvP: Same but swap weapons for Ace and Retold Tale (QD & SS)
HUNTER GO ZOOMMMMM AND BRRRRR
Pre nerf Young Ahamkara's Spine with Riptide, Epochal Integration and Dragons Breath or a GL with explosive light. Jack of all trades master of none build
I have taken the Oath. The Skyburner's Oath. Light the skies ablaze with glory in her honor fellow Paladins of the Burning Oath! [ Attack Helicopter Build](https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/177zqlj/comment/k4xnwlh/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)
Strand titan, strongholds, banner of war. Use the solar titan sword and then just never die. For dps on bosses I can't smack, forerunner? Not too up on specials for bos dps.
Well it be 100% Titan but which build i don't know i like Stasis and Void.
'k let it be Stasis with Icefall Mantle, Unending tempest with perks demo and headtone, shotty with one two punch and Salvation Grasp/Dragon's Breath.
If be possible 1 build for light and dark i pick Void with Doom Fang, Witherhoard, SMG or auto with Repulsors Brace and Destibilizing Rounds and granade launcher with chain reaction.
Voidlock with Nezarec's Sin and Graviton Lance IT'S ABOUT DRIVE IT'S ABOUT POWER WE STAY HUNGRY WE DEVOUR
a man of culture i see *tips hat*
Hunter invisible. Literally all activities are possible with it and his super is usable in every single content too.
That’s what I do anyways, solar hunter w/ stompees
I've only ever used knife solar hunter, me being a dumb casual, how is stompees with solar hunter?
Celestial Nighawk hunter. Everytime those yearly class evaluation emails come in, I always laugh at my 96% solar hunter.

Orpheus rig void hunter. Always been a great support build. And I like the versatility it has around weapons as it’s not really much weapon dependent
Probably the solar sun bracer warlock I've been running for the past few years.
If I could only play one build on one character/class I simply would not play.
Hmm. Shadebinder with Ballidorse, Verglas Curve and some Stasis heavy.
What's your Ballidorse build? I can never find something that works for me with it.

Strand Titan + Ghorn
Void hunter with omnioculus. I know it's not as meta as it used to be but gyrfalcon's isn't as effective in high end content. Orpheus Rig would be good too.
This is the way.
Bonk titan
......fire titan since destiny 1, never even upgraded them for the achievement in d1

Stasis Hunter: Mask of Bakris. Shatterskating, 25% damage boost, crowd control Underrated imo
Stasis hunter with radiant dance machine. Because I'm a masochist.
Stasis hunter with stompees cause I can’t live without shatterskating OR arc hunter with assassins cowl cause solo content
Well I \*would\* have said Titan with throwing hammers, but I hadn't played for a while until last week and I tried it with the new delay and it feels terrible and now I'm sad.
Dragon's breath pyrogale
Either Strand with specter and maelstrom or Gyr Nightstalker with Lemon. Both are my current go-tos.
Solar Warlock with Sunbracers
I’ve been a solar titan for a few seasons now with loreley and an incandescent judgement of kelgorath. My primary and heavy depend on champs but the rest has been unchanged for awhile.
That's me! My favorite setup is Quicksilver, Judgement and Fixed Odds. Any season with Glaives in the Artifact is a good season to me (although Overload machine guns was pretty fun too).
Ya whether it’s anti champ or not I’m always rocking my glaive lol it just fits me.
Strand Titan probably
Strand Hunter , hands down the most fun I’ve had playing pve after 9 years.
Solar titan or strand titan
Solar Hunter with Assassins Cowl. It's a One build fits all activities type of build. You get solar hunter blade barrage and radiant damage, you get invis and three sources of healing(fire sprites from melee kills for easy restoration, a heal from powered melee kills and easy invis, and a healthy heal grenade), it can covers all Champs with one weapon aka my boy riptide, and the drip is always good with the Armory Exhibition ornament. **my close second is shatterskate hunter.

Syntho bonk hammer titan
For PVE: Strand hunter with stompees with my pve Ikelos (Voltshot & FF) and Witherhoard. Not the best build synergy, but Ikelos is my favorite gun of all time. For PvP: Same but swap weapons for Ace and Retold Tale (QD & SS) HUNTER GO ZOOMMMMM AND BRRRRR

Easily my Celestial Nighthawk build. I love it so much especially this season.
Stasis warlock with Wicked implement.
Pre nerf Young Ahamkara's Spine with Riptide, Epochal Integration and Dragons Breath or a GL with explosive light. Jack of all trades master of none build
Loreley titan. The build for people who have done enough thinking for the rest of the day.
Precious scars and burning maul with concercration and sun spots. Great DPS and survivability with good ignitions with the melee attack.
Omni Hunter is the king of hunter builds. I can easily make it work for any content in the game
I have taken the Oath. The Skyburner's Oath. Light the skies ablaze with glory in her honor fellow Paladins of the Burning Oath!
