Handy Warlock/Hunter Gambit Trick (Titans will thank you)

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share a recent strategy I started testing myself in gambit to help alleviate both miserable solo-queue team composition and must have subclass picks in Gambit (i.e Sunbreaker/Melting Point Titan, Spectral Blades/Shatter Point hunter). We all know that one of the fastest ways to LEGITIMATELY kill a primeval is to get your stacks quickly up to x2 (by quickly killing witches and blockers), have a titan or hunter defense debuff with melting point/shatter point, then burst DPS with Blade Barrage or Chaos Reach (with geomags). The issue with this strategy is it heavily relies on both team coordination, composition, and everyone being in the right place at the right time. This makes it so 4-stacks can steamroll randoms and people are forced into playing a subclass or exotic in order to not punish themselves. In comes the Tractor Cannon (and the downvotes). It's able to provide a defense debuff giving 33% more damage (50% with void damage) which is lower than the 50% melting point/shatter point debuff but still very effective. On top of that as long as you have at least 4 shots you can debuff each witch once, have your team focus them, then you can debuff the primeval to melt and one debuff left incase extra damage is needed. One Tractor Cannon boop will remove the witch's shield and after one grenade and melee its health is almost gone letting you move onto the other one while the team easily finishes it off. Even more you can do debuffs on the primeval servitor between each of its invulnerability mechanics for increased damage. I would recommend running a special weapon (Sniper/Fusion Rifle [Hello Loaded Question]) in your secondary slot to make up for you having a debuff cannon for a heavy. I'd run a solid auto-rifle (hello Breakneck) or pulse in your primary to give you good ad-clear. With a highly coordinated and hand picked team this method is less effective but when solo queueing or when your titan doesn't want to sunbreaker anymore (or used his melting point already) it makes for an excellent backup plan.
