Made 84 orbs in one strike! With the Heroics this past week having brawler as a modifier, I knew I had a winning combination here:
- Sunsinger subclass
- Tier 5 Strength
- Scorch w/ Brimstone
- Sunburst (instead of Radiant Will or Lying Funeral)
- Claws of Ahamkara exotic gauntlets
- Artifact to generate orb on grenade/melee kill
I could also have used Monte Carlo to get my Scorch back quicker, and my artifact was grenade based rather than melee, so the maximum orbage is even higher!
Sunburst now guarantees an orb when you kill an enemy with your charged melee, and kills from the explosion caused by Brimstone qualify as well!
I think I may have generated 4 orbs in one Scorch kill, it was awesome!
Also cool is that selecting Brimstone now reduces Scorch's cooldown, so with tier 5 strength you get it back QUITE quickly.
I think perhaps the only competition we have now is potentially Defenders with a clever loadout.
What are your orb generation methods? And, how many orbs have you managed to wring out of a strike? Leave your brain thoughts in the comments below!

Nah. Defender with increased force barriers duration, make orbs with melee, and no back up plans. Its more reliable and survivable. I have run strikes with 100+ orbs generated.
