I’m positive the point of Dragon’s Breath in this build is to focus on killing ads with it. The scorch plus ignitions will keep the uptime of the abilities up, and if you had the catalyst, you’d spawn near infinite Fire Sprites with all the kills you’d get with it, thus you’ll be able to keep restoration up through Ember of Mercy. Come on Mactics get that dang catalyst done

"I don't have the Dragon's Breath catalyst which generates firesprites but I doubt it'll be important" *followed by* "I don't see how Ember of Mercy is going to help me when I'm not generating firesprites" Honestly this is how you can tell none of this is rehearsed. :)

As long Bungie finally figures out how to separate how YAS works in PvE and PvP. It was understandable nerf for PvP, but they definitely need to reverted back only for PvE. Because I do miss coming up with Hunter fashion and running around with my YAS before it was nerf.

I have an idea! Lumina with lucky pants, with healing grenade, knife trick, gamblers dodge, knock 'em down, on your mark, singeing, torches, benevolence, solace and searing. Mods: powerful friends, power preservation, kinetic siphon, heavy handed, 2 impact induction, charged up, (any resistances), recuperation, 2 kinetic surges, bomber, time dilation and powerful attraction. With this, your gun, grenade and melee will give you quicker ability regeneration thru benevolence, and lumina will deal a load of dmg with double surge and lucky pants with blessed with the sky. Searing gives you more grenades thru firesprites, benevolence ofc gives more abilities, torches allows melees to proc benevolence, and singeing stacks with benevolence for even more class ability.

Love the vids Mactics! I absolutely love Sauron, from his lore to his armor he’s just a great villain but the Witch King of Angmar is a very close second. Keep up the good work man!

I think ember of searing might be a better choice than benevolence. You arent always near allies to give them radient, especially running solo. With searing you are creating the firesprites which also grant grenade energy.

I love gimli, the humor, the dynamic between him and Legolas, and plus you have to love dwarves! Sam is a very close second, being the true hero and all

This build does work. The revisions you made are great, I made a few of my own. I recommend double solar weapon surge on the boots, and I also went with ember of resolve so Solar grenade kills cure you, which should be non stop with this build. 100 resilience, 100 discipline, 70 mobility.

I love Pippin the dynamic between him and the rest of the group always made me so happy. I also love how he grows through out the movies.

One thing to add about Dragons Breath: With the catalyst, I can shoot a rocket, swap to Scatter Signal, shoot 2-3 bursts, then swap back to Dragons Breath for another x5 rocket. Catalyst makes it auto reload with full stacks so much quicker

Dude i love how you take the time to go over every aspect of the build keep up the good work bro

I love Gimli, the humor, the dynamic between him and Legolas, The counting game at helms deep is honestly one of my favorite cinematic experiences.

Gimli is my favorite character for sure. Love his jokes he makes during the journey and how hes always ready to fight something or someone

Theoden King of Rohan. He shows much grace to Grima inviting him back to Rohan when confronting Saruman, acknowledging that it was Saruman that turned Grima against him.

The Balrog was awesome. :-) I loved the first time I saw it arrive in the mines... blew my mind. I know, I'm odd, but it's in my top tier for fav characters for sure.

Love the build it’s so freaking good to see it back. 100% gonna build it. Just for the competition Samwise Gamgee was by far the best character, he practically carried that ring himself. He was a true friend from start to finish and even though he never left the shire prior it was the best adventure. Also afterwards he got the girl and lived happily. Samwise the brave is the GOAT. Thank you for listening to my TED talk. 😂

Just started watching your videos and love your content! You should start a video series of how too play each class effectively and the basics of like synergies between abilities and fragments and aspects, and fun game and cover…etc

just so you know 13:21 the reason the melle used to procs multiple times before its nerf due to sorch counting as an abillity dmg as its cast from a abillity. when they changed it to kills since you can get multi kills it procs on multi kills now. the grenade all so used to prock on the grenade dmg and again on the scorch dmg giving 66% grenade back however you only ever noticed it on bosses due to the grenade killing most enemys. the old build rotation i used to have was a rocket with demo on it and the cast order of : rocket - grenade - rocket - melle - grenade - rocket - dodge - rocket - grenade - rocket - grenade. was one of the best solo boss dps options on hunter. paired with witherhoard

You make everything look so easy lol feel like you could go into a gm with a glance and 2 shotguns and clear it haha keep up the great work watching you and your builds have helped me tremendously even able to do some gms now!

I think with the change to YAS (which I hate btw) they should also give us 2 charges of tripmines similar to D1

@Menace-To-Humanity

3 ай бұрын

or just revert the change. because even with 2 tripmines you're still gonna have to get kills with it to get that charge% back. all it needed was a durability nerf on the pvp side, and stacy naded and child STILL TAKES A HALF A MAG TO DOWN!

the melee mod specific makes sense since hunter's solar kit basically makes recurring melee charges a core feature with radiant/kill recharge loop. Easy way to build up a super. get ability kills for grenade recharge, ect.

Favorite Lord of the Rings character is... gosh there are so dang many that I love. I'll go with my favorite character in RotK which was Pippin Took. He lit those beacons so well.

Not sure if it was said, if you remove the overload rockets on the artifact mod, dragons breath will gain anti barrier from radiant and it’s fantastic.

I used to have the previoud build you made with YAS, and I absolutely loved it. But after an update last year, it didn't work like it used to (so I scraped it.) Looks like I'll be reviving that build cuz I loved the ability spamming of this build.

Tom Bombadil is by far my favorite character! He's basically a Bard God. Keep up the great series man, these are gold!🤩

Great video man. Love the subtle changes you made to benefit the build. Also Legolas is my favorite character. Huge fan of the elves in the lord of the rings series!

lol 😂 you definitely only read or watch the hobbit then.

I've always loved Young Ahamkara Spines. Been running them forever. And when they started to become more noticed by the community, I just knew they'd be touched by Bungie. I am really glad someone has found a way to keep them relevant though. Definitely saving this build. As for my favorite Lord of The Rings character, I am not sure. I have a soft spot for Boromir because he is one of the most misunderstood characters in the movies. People seem to hate him for falling victim to the Ring's influence. But that just gives real credence to the Ring's seduction more than it does to diminish the character of Boromir. The more you look into who Boromir is, you will find how noble of a man he is. He has great moral quality and is a beloved leader of his people. The Ring took advantage of these aspects of Boromir, along with his fear of failing his people, and tempted him to act rashly. But in the end Boromir DID overcome these temptations, he let Frodo go, and he gave his life to defend his companions. Boromir is one of my favorite characters out of any media. Not because he is perfect, but because he is not. He is a great window into what it means to be human.

watched all 3 videos on the game. well well you look like your having lots of fun with this one Tennek

I have a solar hunter build that I think would work well because it generates infinite ignitions. Fragments are torches, eruption,empyrean and blistering. Aspects are knock em down and gunpowder gamble, with healing grenade, weighted throwing knife, gamblers dodge and ophidia spathe. Dragons breath is recommended. You make the mod setup, but use s23 solar mods.

Gandalf and the dwarves from the Hobbit, And I was close to getting something like this build, I was one of the people who'd main the spine back then and took a break before the nerf, so glad we found a way to bring it back

I think I can hear yippee when they ran into the scorn with the granade 😂 20:29

Mr. Butts will always be my favorite character. No matter how many times I watch ROTK, I am in stitches and tears when he says "Now THATS a bullfrog!!!"

I love this build really good. I as well did not have the catalyst for dragon's breath but, I used in my opinion the next best thing Skyburner's Oath scout rifle and with firing from the hip lobbing explosives it also scorches targets and dont have to worry about having heavy ammo. Thanks matics keep up the great work love your vids.

My favorite character is Aragorn, one of the things I like the most is like on the first movie he's so humble about his destiny, his afraid of his internal evil because of what happened with the dunedains. I love that he is not a complete hero.

I love Gandalf because he would travel to the shire with gifts for everyone, and he's a bad ass wizard ^-^

My favorite LOTR character is Gimli. One tough dude! I loved his friendship and constant competition with Legolas!

great build will def try it out!!!! Aragorn was my fav character in the Lord of the Rings movies!

yoo this build is crazy good i'm so glad this exotic is back!!

Luthien. The woman is a princess and the most beautiful elf ever born on Middle Earth. To earn her hand in marriage, her Father tasks Beren with stealing a Silmaril from the crown of Morgorth - a literal fallen Archangel. And Beren goes off to do it with a few dozen heavilybarmed and powerful elves,and IMMEDIATELY gets captured by Sauron. Luthien and her pet wolf set off after him by themselves. Defeats Sauron and destroys his fortress, freeing Beren. Then she puts Morgoth and his entire army to sleep so Beren can steal the Silmaril.... This is the ONLY Silmaril that any of the Elves are ever able to recover ahead of the war of the Valar, despite whole armies banging on Mogoth's gates for centuries. AND it's that same Silmaril that goes on to be known as Earendil's star, the light of which Galadriel passes on to Frodo. Later when Beren dies, Luthien 1v1s death to bring him back to life with her forever. She is easily the most OP character in the universe.

Tom Bombadil! He always seemed above and beyond any darkness; a light where there was none

As usual, great video. Legolas is my favourite character. Imagine what he could do with Wish Ender.

Fav toon is Legolas. I've always loved the ranger style, long range bow and arrow fight styles.

That ember of mercy I like to combine with another fragment that helps you generate firesprites and also melee energy (forget the name). I'm not a hunter main and I use the aspect that gives you 3 fragment slots plus the 2 for the other with 5 total it's a build I utilize as a nighthawk hunter to help me stay alive and it works great with healing grenade as well bc firesprites when picked up give you grenade energy it's a build that essentially keeps me alive until I need my golden gun

My favorite character is Sammy Wise Gamji. What an inspiration of loyalty and mental fortitude.

My favorite lord of the rings character is Tom Bombadil. "Eldest, that's what I am... Tom remembers the first raindrop and the first acorn... He knew the dark under the stars when it was fearless - before the Dark Lord came from Outside." He displays absolute power over his domain and treats the One ring as a mere silly trinket. Truly an amazing character and is so full of joy while also being incredibly powerful.

Favorite LOTR character: Elrond. He sees the need to support the Humans while maintaining the need to protect the Elves as his priority. His wisdom, guidance, and support of the Fellowship made its success possible.

Samwise Gamgee is by far my favorite, on another note I've really been enjoying the build vids thanks

Favorite LOR character: I like Aragorn. I think there is a lot from the books they could have still put in the movie about him to reflect just how above average he was. It was barely mentioned that he was Dúnedain. But overall, his tenacity was his best trait.

Sauron was always my favorite mostly becase of the LOTR Conquest game on the 360 where he was a hero in the Rivendell arena he was so fun to play

I think part of the mercy was for you to use dragons breath on adds before the boss rooms on the coil it could work since a lot of them do clump up and you get rally at the end so may it was supposed to be used like that

i love gandolf!!!! love the channel bro

I love the dark side characters like Sauron and Lurtz

This probably isn’t an answer anyone would expect but Treebeard is my favorite. Not because he’s the best character in the series but because he was the first character I was ever exposed to when I saw an illustration depicting him when I was a little kid, many years before I understood where that drawing was from or even knew of Tolkien’s books. As a child, I used to be infatuated with trees hoping I might encounter one that would speak me, all because of that drawing. Thanks for all the build videos!

Nice vid, Gandalf is my favourite lotr character!

I've been using this with weighted knife instead since scorching targets is so easy and it gives me access to more ignitions

Gimli is hilarious in any situation. And I'm excited to give this build a try.

16:33 I can't believe he stuck the landing after being killed

Gonna have to say Legolas something about using bows with extreme persiction is just amazing to watch

Ember of searing creates a fire sprite from defeating scorched targets which you get from melee mercy makes sprites grants restoration

Favorite LOTR is Gimli especially with the extra clips of him in the extended edition.

I’ve been tinkering with my own ahamkara build for almost a month now and I swear to god I’ve made this exact build about 7 times without watching this video.

Fun build! Favorite LoTR character is Samwise, of course!

My favorite LOTR character is Tom Bombadil. There wasnt enough room in the movies to really deal with his character.

I just can't beleive you ran that faster than every run I've ever done, with no resist mods. I get 1 shot by a psion scratching his arse and that's with em on.

My favorite is actually a group which is the ringwraiths (nazgul) if have have to pick a single favorite it will probably be the witch king

My impression was kickstart on the grenade- maybe the fire spite healing since at minimum DB can generate those

Great video definitely going to give this a try let me get that emblem please 🙏

I got excited cause I uploaded a build exactly like this with a very similar name about 2 weeks ago

I know this is more than one but gimli son of gloin, and Legolas of the woodland realms. The interactions of these two are absolutely hilarious

Fav. LOTR char is Sam. He is the best example of the "loyal companion" archetype without sacrificing believability

Firesprites give Grenade/Ability Enegry, Dragons Breath causes a bunch of ignition and gets a bunch of firesprites for restoration, ability charge, and armor charge so yes Dragon Breath catalyst is really important and Ember of Mercy is good survivability

I love Gollum… the goblin that says precious!

FREEZING GLAIVE MELEE STRAND TITAN (Winterbite heavy slot glaive+ Wormgod caress strand titan) Titan Subclass: strand Any barricade I use towering for more cover when I'm caught in a bad spot + rezzing teammates. Any jump. Grapple grenade. Aspects: into the fray. Banner of war Fragments: transmutation, generation, fury, thread of warding. (Could make changes here most are not crucial) Weapons: shotgun for special.. I think rangnhild-D with autoloading holster and 1-2 punch works well and its craftable. (Could use something else but I like having shotgun in hands while doing grapple melee to finish off targets that don't die.. I recommend auto-loading holster so u can go back to glaive asap and shotgun will still be ready for the next grapple melee…) Winter bite in heavy slot. Any primary but you will not need to use primary much. maybe double special ammo to help with boss dps when you are not able to get stacks or if the bosses melee hits too hard. Exotic armor: wormgod caress. Stats leaning towards grenade for more grapples.. charged melee will not be needed as much since grapple melee does not used charged melee nor does glaive. Don't forget the stasis mods on the season artifact since 3 glaive melees will freeze. If using solar primary you can build around radiant as well. Play style: grapple melee in for first banner stack.. use charged melees for tangles and throw tangle for woven mail.. pull out glaive and melee everything with the Winterbite for stacks of burning fist and banner of war which provides lots of damage buff for melees (including glaive melee) and healing. shoot glaive shot at a group to get instant full shield power if needed.. If one bullet is in the glaive mag.. glaive melee will do increased damage and slow/freeze. Then Grapple melee, one two punch, and glaive melee all yellow bars and bosses ect. Don't forgot to put your shotgun in your hand before trying to grapple melee as it doesn’t work when you have the glaive in hands. Use glaive shots for extra dps on boss. save charged melees for tangles to refresh woven mail.. and orbs. Always save 1 bullet of heavy ammo in the mag for increased glaive melee damage + slow/freeze Mods: helmet-siphon mod(s) and heavy ammo finder Arm-grenade Kickstarter and impact induction. (could use heavy handed for more orbs but I don't have the energy) Chest-charged up and resistance of choice or Lucent blades depending on activity Legs- innveration and stacks on stacks Mark- bomber x2 and reaper (Im not master worked on anything so you may have more energy for extra or better armor mods)

Gandolf has got to be my favorite, reliable, wise, badass warrior.

My favorite character is Gandalf. He was pretty much the only wizard who lived up to his mission.

Ability kills only proc for YAS once per use. Gimli: "that still only counts as one!"

I ask that you please show the full build and the changes you’ve made to it at the end of the video so that some folks can copy the build a little easier.

Yeah imma have to go with Aragorn FOR SURE!!!!!!! Hes always caught my interest

Eomer for sure👌 By the way, great video as always ☺️

It sucks because you used to be able to throw enough grenades that you could feasibly use Ember of resolve. However Bungie would rather ember of resolve never be touched by anyone apparently

After the reaper nerf i dont use it a ton either now that there is an internal cooldown before you can generate orbs again.

I missed the Young Ahamkaras! I will try this build in the new dungeon. Favorite character of the Lord of the rings „universe“: Radagast, because of his connection to all creatures and i like that he is kinda crazy Gimli, you have to love him. He is funny, he is a caring character and faithful to his Friends.

Powerful attraction is better served in gambit imo as it can also be used to pick up motes not just orbs of power very useful if you have bounties or triumphs that force you to pick up motes but you struggle bc your teammates steal them

It can't be any other than Sam. Will try this build today 👍

The Witch King of Angmar has always been a stand out to me, especially after playing Shadow of War.

My favorite LOTR character is Merry... he is somehow sane and fully put together while having to deal with Pippin. And he's the perfect balance of immature and mature. He works well with his brother.

Bro, I was thinking about YAS yesterday too

If you didn't know, there's a glitch with gunpowder gamble to throw them right after another with no cooldown. If you throw it as soon as you get it, literally the split second, you won't get a cooldown, and if your gamble kills a bunch of adds it reloads another 1 so you pretty much get infinite gambles.

Damn I'm gonna have to resubmit my lucky raspberry build. It's been a while lol

I love Frodo because he shows us that no matter how hard the task is. We should see it through with our friends and family supporting us.

Boromir of corse. Also try this with sunshot for more heavy ammo spawns and more splosions.
