At last, some love for the warlocks!! Fed up with void hunter and strand titan dominating! Thanks Mactics!

One quick correction: you say a few times that the wanderer aspect suspends when you *throw* a tangle, but it actually suspends any time you DESTROY a tangle. Its the sticky effect that only triggers on throw. That synergizes super well with the rest of the build, cuz you get 2 unraveling hatchlings and a suspension burst that increases your fire rate every time a tangle pops due to any effect. It's incredibly good for the core of the build, especially when your grenade is on cooldown. I saw the thumbnail and got excited, this is almost exactly the build I came up with ages ago and it OWNS. Yours is definitely more optimized, I'll be updating mine to match, but the core loop has been my favorite om warlock since wishkeeper dropped. I've got my Wish-Keeper at level 55 entirely from this build. I jokingly call it my "I dont want to have to play the game" build because of how hard it snowballs through enemies. Great video!

Hey how did you rebuild your bow? Which strings and other options?

@kilojuliet4

2 ай бұрын

@@daocommand85 I think the only legitimately required thing is hatchling refit catalyst (which you and everyone else probably knows, but I'll throw a description at the bottom anyways just in case). The rest is probably personal preference. I haven't experimented with a ton, but here's my set, the stats from it that matter, and my reasoning: Overview - IMO the most important thing to optimize in the whole bow is more arrows per second (APS?). It's more damage, but it also feels better to use, it's snappier and easier to react to things like missing a shot or an enemy rushing you. Accuracy and handling are next, find a balance that's good for you. Technically reload speed increases APS, but you only have 1 option for that and I prefer other choices in that slot. Base stability feels fine, penalties to it do push the kickback up enough to be noticeable so I dont like it getting too low. To that end... Elastic string (+ draw speed, -10 accuracy) - Better draw is better APS. You take an accuracy penalty, which is actually pretty bad cuz you want to be able to use this bow at long ranges, but we can compensate for that later. If you find you're missing headshots you had lined up try polymer string. It's a tad bit slower to draw, but still faster than base and is +5 accuracy instead of -10, which may be pretty significant. Fiberglass arrow (+15 accuracy) - this is just to compensate for the elastic string, which it does with 5 points to spare. This is a comfortable spot for me, I do notice a tiny bit of drift at longer ranges (I'm on PC). It reduces stability, but that's fine. This takes us to the same accuracy as if we picked polymer step 1, so we're getting better draw speed at the cost of some stability which I'm cool with. Another good option may be compact shaft (+10 reload, +10 handling) if you really don't care about the accuracy. Even better APS cuz it trims the reload animation, and with more handling to boot. The accuracy is noticably lower, so it might lose some long-range value, but it could be goated anyways. idk, try it and get back to me. Smooth grip (+5 handling, +5 stability) - honestly this one is 100% up to preference. I picked smooth to offset the stability penalty from fiberglass arrow, but tbh I think its probably better to just take polymer grip (+10 handling) and just deal with the -5 stability penalty. Idk if I'd take textured grip (+15 handling, -5 stability), cuz the handling on this bow already feels really high and -10 stability actually does feel like a noticeable kick. I personally don't like heavy grip, it feels a bit too weighty for my taste and the bonus to stability feels pointless, but on console maybe not. Hatchling - it's 100% mandatory for this kind of build, and probably just the best in general. You already want to be hitting headshots to get extra stacks, and it's so easy to do when you're suspending so much, so getting such a good boost for doing what you were doing anyways is just too juicy.

This is the one I've been waiting for you to put out since you used it live! I want to try this one so badly

Had a whole bunch of fun with Swarmers this season. I do have two suggestions for if you dont have the Bow or you're not vibing with it. Old Sterling with Rewind Rounds & Hatchling OR Rufus' with Demolitionist & Hatchling (Enhanced if you can!) Rufus' goes really well whatever the Aspects you're running you either have your Shackle for Weavers Call or Threadling Grenade ready to go almost always when you have 100 Discipline too. Mess around with Impact Induction? Melee gives Grenade energy (Might have that one backwards!) It gets a bit silly with Unravelling Orbs & Hoarde Shuttle!

Congrats on Full Time content creation Mac! Wish you all the best man 💯🎉

Congrats to becoming a full time streamer! That’s Huge, keep up the dope content.

Watched this live! Great stream, great video, and great build as always! Thanks for sharing

I had this build almost exactly like his that I’ve been using for a while and was thinking of submitting it glad someone got the word out there about how good it is

I was surprised at just how effective Final Warning w/Swarmers was last night. It worked extremely well.

i find it funny that i kind of had that exact same build, just without the swarmers i i didnt have that till i did the wish quests, works like a charm lmao

Montage was a great addition- job well done

Congrats on going full time! That's a heck of a milestone, good sir.

This was great to watch live.

Amazing build and video! Only thing I would change is the fragment that gives orb for defeating suspended targets to the one that makes suspension last longer.

So I have been using a build just like this for a while now. I go between the bow nd and basically any strand weapon that has threadlelings. One thing I see that can make it that much better is you are constantly leaving threadling grenades behind, ones close to you you should throw them as they proc your unraveling, and shoot everything you can see as they also start to proc everything. There are times when my screen just glows green, and nobody can see anything. Old sterling with threading works awesome, and so does a worked perpetulas. I go back and forth just because I get bored and like auto rifles. The final warning works for close quarter maps as well. Definitely play around with weapons. Super fun build.

Brigand's Law with voltshot and feeding frenzy feels really nice..you can really get some super fast reloading

Excellent build and good luck on the new gig!

Dood! Ive been keeping this one to myself, been rocking this exact build for the entire season, and yes it does absolutely SLAP!!! I’ve found this build actually has more crowd control than Tether Hunter. Wish Keeper is such an underrated and overlooked exotic. You should also add that Wish Keeper should have the Threadling refit.

I use this build all the time, and I love it. Totally underrated.

Congrats I just started watching and I love your videos

Best of luck on the new journey, well deserved

That transition and then the “montage” moment was 🔥🔥🔥. I was just listening at work and had to stop work for a minute to scroll back and watch.

Will it build is gonna go crazy with prism. I can't wait! Most of my builds based off your videos, very useful.

i’ve genuinely been running this since the start of onslaught so 🔥

Been looking for a new Strand Warlock build, definitely gonna give this a go!

Yes Weavers Trance does count as grenade kills. If you use triple firepower and the poison warlock build, you make orbs every single second. Pretty nuts. Great vid!

Comedy gold....can't plan for that timing..."This build can handle everything!"....Immediately dies...."huh....neat"

GG, congratulations on becoming a full time content creator and giving up your day job, that's a huge achievement.

I use a very similar build, just using the Eye of Another World for extra 50% + speed at recovery for my melee, grenade and class ability. I like to run Scatter Signal + Indebted Kindness but the problem of running out of ammo is still present so I'm definitely giving a try to the bow.

I actually used this build today with randoms to get the 50 wave Legend Onslaught completion! In my opinion this is a far better Strand Warlock build than the Necrotic Grip/Osteo/Thorn build. The amount of Crowd Control you can do with this build is wild, and the Threadlings do respectable damage with all the Unraveling. Thank you so much for this build!

That's crazy! I use the same build but I use vengeful whisper with archers tempo/Hatchling and buried bloodline. HIGHLY recommend trying this, you're incredibly tanky and the weakening from the BB caty is mental!

I just tried this out and I'm really liking it with a Demolitionist + Onslaught Marcato-45 LMG. Eating the grenade for weaver's trance reloads it. Kill a few adds for Onslaught stacks and rev up for major/boss damage. Also was using Wild Style w/ Envious Assassin and Collective Action + Disorienting.

One of my favorite builds of this season. When I saw Wishkeeper would get Hatchling....I knew this build would be a powerhouse with Swarmers.

NGL: I love the 27-40 montage! killer music!!

This build is awesome. I’m excited to try these variations. Unfortunately I don’t see it being as strong in high level content in the future without horde shuttle, it just makes up such a large portion of your damage output. The crowd control is still gonna be nuts and is perfect for onslaught though.

What a cool build, i´ll head straight into D2 and try it out :)

The crazy thing about this build is you could use something like a rufus with demo to get your grenade back faster and you free up an exotic slot. Obviously the bow and quicksilver are great, but I can't help but think about using rufus+buried bloodline for infinite healing as well plus devour will grant more ability energy regeneration.

Yeah I just tried this exactly with a Well Warlock and Orpheus Hunter, smooth as hell all the way through on Legend, awesome build.

Change to buried bloodline, Vengeful whisper with tempo and hatchling Bloodline gives devour and very easy to keep up time due to unravelling and threadings killing everything

I dare thee to try the amazing invisible cricket build!! Which revolves around the Final warning exotic, the sixth coyote and enemies not being able to see you! Use this to clear the 50 waves of legend onslaught 🤘🏼 Weapons: -Final warning -Disorienting grenade launcher -Strand heavy with hatchling or anything you like (if it’s a rocket you could cover all three champs with this build) Subclass: -threadrunner -gamblers dodge -shackle grenade -whirling maelstrom -threaded specter Fragments: -isolation -warding -evolution -last one can be generation, binding or rebirth :) Mods: Helmet: -harmonic siphon -heavy finder -dynamo Arms: -harmonic loader -impact induction -focusing strike Chest: -resistances Legs: -recuperation -innervation -strand surge Class: -reaper -bomber -powerful attraction Artifact: -unraveling orbs -horde shuttle Fill in the blanks as needed, resilience and discipline as priorities. Game loop: Blind enemies with your gl, throw your melee to unravel, tag enemies with the final warning, hit stronger and surviving enemies with precision shots to clean up and get that bonus damage. Use the dodge to leave the specter and become invisible when needed as well as your grenade. Create maelstroms, threadlings and have a blast doing so :) Posted by Charlie (TIMELOST)#8226

Tusk of the boar with slice + hatchling , might also be solid , and the strand rocket sidearm we are getting ...

I use that same strand tangle build except with necrotic grips, thorn, and usually a forbearance and an edge transit. The DOT from thorn and necrotic means I dont need to focus as much on small ads and they auto tangle everything else

I can attest to this build being OP. So much so, that my clan mates request it when we’re doing 50 waves. When I saw hatchling was a perk on this bow, I immediately knew how nasty it would be with swammers

Dude congrats that your making this a full time gig. Fuckin proud of ya!

Alt weps Rufus with demo/threadling as you mentioned but Eyes of Tomorrow for the heavy. In onslaught you basically get your rocket back for free [only need to get 4 kills] and it's hilarious with weavers trance.

Using it right now and its amazing. Should be great in final shape

It's a great bow. Awesome on hunter with sixth coyote too. I usually run something aimilar to this build with thorn+necrotic grips. Eat grenade, throw melee, blast away.

I dunno why I I didn't think of this yet. It's basically the old Osteo striga build. Swapping the necrotic grips for swarmer's and the striga for wish keeper. thanks!!

i just realized that mactics looks like hayama from tokyo vice and now i cannot unsee it. cool

Congrats Mactics on the last day well deserved!

I totally didn't think of using that build holy cow

Omg its what i been using in legend/master lostsectos, lol also because of antibarrier side arm lol works so good!

Those mindspun explosions from each weapon kill - they get the boosts from veritys brow as well - fun fact

Final warning would be good for this too with the artifact mod that spawns threadlings for damaging unraveled enemies

congrats on the full time content creation!

I completed my first legend onlsaught with this build. My fireteam couldn’t believe how much it was good. My friend I did my run with prefers threadling builds instead of suspension, but he changed his mind after seeing me cook everything on the field 😂

Mactics is one of The Best Destiny guide guy..😊

The synergy for the ashes to assets “might” even work with demolitionist, therefore, I think a marcato with demo and golden tricorn will synergize nicely with this build, cause if it works the way I’m thinking of, tricorn would be up times 2 most of the time!

The extra suspend from bow can be overkill. Can replace it with weapon of sorrow (osteo,thorn etc) + necrotic arms for more aoe damage instead + just throwing a melee once in a while to start unraveling a whole lane lol.

Been rocking this build and the ONLY thing I changed is get 100 discipline with the new demo chain forbearance so you can swap thread of generation for thread of rebirth. EVERY bow kill spawns a threadling. Sometimes 2

Threading or chain reaction tusk of the boar instead of the bow is great too.

Awesome video! Can you whip up something similar for the Titan?

I swapped out strand leg scavengers with grenade regen on orb pickup. Makes getting shackle nade back faster

I have been using a very similar build to this and I always take it into my GM runs

congrats on being a full-time content creator!

Pretty solid build, especially when you can hit the right notes on the gameplay loop (sometimes you're still competing with teammates for kills or to proc certain things). But man, one it rains it pours. The entire screen turns green!

This looks awesome

Onslaught has sick ammo economy. Ive been using buried bloodline as my main weapon. Going to try double special

"when u eat ur grenade.." ah yes, the titans will love this

Fun fact too, if your hatching threadling(specifically) gets a kill too it also gives a stack for the bow

As a Warlock main I will be trying this out immediately. Unfortunate that there’s no Dim link though so I have to build it piece by piece

I just have to fiddle around with my Swarmers build a little, but I'd love to run this with my "Bones of the Threadling Queen" Warlock fashion. I wonder if the build will also help carry my friend through Legend Lightfall. Testing will begin.

I've been using this since day 1 of starcrossed. He's def not lying.

You only get orbs from siphon mods on weapon kills, so you can't get an orb from both a siphon mod and a firepower mod at the same time. Rapid ability kills will occasionally give orbs at base of the game so you likely got the grenade final blow... one for that reason plus one from firepower and one from your subclass spec.

A more common sidearm with volt to craft is Brigands Law as good alternative

I can see myself using this build and switching out to well and dragon's breath for boss fights.

Will have to try this, been using Thorn/Necrotic on lock to carry

I think I have half of this build set up. I need to finish it off and actually use the bow. The bow might be one of my favorite weapons.

Got my first 50 wave clear on legend with this build. If you’re on the fence, try it. It’s really a strong build

I run something similar with some slight differences. I'll admit i never thought to use weavers trance as i like using the threadling grenade but i may try this. I'll miss my grenade tho.

Been using this exact build since wish-keeper came out, finally we have a video presenting it
