Class Tips

I'm surprised there isn't a thread like this up yet, but here goes. Title says it all. A place where you can post your class tips and builds for PvE (Raid/Strikes) and PvP. Anything can be included. Do you play cover the whole game and stack speed bonuses (passive skills) on a Singer Warlock and rock a melee fire shield for reliable revives in "squishy" strikes? Maybe advise the new exotic Hunter piece that Xur sells for raids (Radar always on for Primary)? Let's keep the griefing to a minimal. If someone's build is funky to you and you'd like to give a suggestion, that's understandable.

  • I can offer some tips for Warlocks, Idk this is mostly me tho. Void walker: first all I feel like this is the DPS or "Nuke the crap outta of stuff" subclass! If you personally prefer always out on the attack this maybe for you. First I will say that all grenades work but these two should be always thought of on a high note and they are Vortex and the Axion. I use them both but Vortex i use more for PVE for throwing at mobs and setting up damage on bosses ( I do this same thing on Sun singer) but Axion is nice as well! To make em more useful put on Vortex Mastery so they get the max benefit. Also now for melee this is another personal choice but I would go with Soul Rip. Surge is great too, but I like Soul Rip because u can get your Nova Bomb faster ( Plus if u stack Int and strength it will work faster too). For the nova bomb picks I say go with whats more better in your eyes. Sure the Nova bomb vortex is nice for shutting down areas in PVP and inflecting more damage in PVE Bosses but I like to switch from time to time to Lance so I can shoot it straight and hit Tanks in PVP or Shatter. For the Ability I suggest Annihilate, it will increase your Nova bomb explosion and even your nades! Tho Angry Magic is nice but I will warn you that the follow effect works mostly when one is NEAR the nova bomb and they manage to escape it and the thing will follow, If u want to do that I suggest Split + Angry Magic. Last of all the stat boosters. I would go with Arcane Wisdom and Chaos Order, I picked these because I feel like Void Walker is a all out DPS class, so I would prefer to be Recover HP Fast and running out of things asap! Sun singer: This can be a DPS class too but it has a lot of things that are helpful in PVE and Raids like your Radiance perk for giving people near you a boost in Cool downs and even....wait for it.... COMING BACK FROM THE DEAD! ( Which FYI is great if u do Raids or even hard weekly stuff that you suffer a squad wipe) For your grenades there is two I recommend: The Solar Grenade on PVE settings and the Fire bolt for PVP. Solar nade is great for pve due to the same effect as Void walker's vortex but its much shorter (Unless you have a Exotic named The Sunbreaker) and Fire Bolt can be worked too in PVE but i prefer in PVP due to it shooting out fire bolts to 4 targets. For their bonus I suggest the Touch of Flame, because for the Solar nade if u stay in it your going to get burned and for Fire bolt most of the times in PVP the nade gets a kill...but if not it will leave a nasty burn that will kill em if lucky enough. ALSO if your going to do the DoTs I suggest Viking Funeral....if you read it its kinda explains all. For your melee: Scorch is mostly stuck with Flame Shield due to it being very useful for staying alive in PVE and PVP. Now for the super....Radiance. This one has a big choice set but I mostly stick with Fireborn which when you have your super and die, you can use it to come back from the dead, or Song of Flame to help nearby teammates with their cool downs on Melee and Nades. Fireborn is great for PVE due to a squad wipe and you just come back and save everyone ( and you will become a hero! Just don't die when trying this because its a good laugh) So is Song of Flame as well cuz if you keep near your teammates you will help their C.D rates so more spamming nades at bosses or anything in your teams way! For your stats I would suggest pick what you feel like is a win (Tho its good if you keep your Recovery as high as it can) That is all the tips I can offer for Warlock! But I suggest try to Mix and match things you learn and just get something that would fit your style! I play mostly all classes but I will need time to learn the others (Tho I got a good grasp about Hunter but I bet ill be shot down by people who prefer blade dancer) So Good Luck and have a good day! PS. I didnt add anything bout Jumps cuz I always use on both sub classes Focused Burst!
