My guide to Support Warlock

TLDR; I am not promising to raise your k/d or win/loss%, I do give advice that... MAY (Win matches FASTER, stay in Radiance LONGER, and if nothing else increase your assits/bonus points a game" So hello, let me tell you a little about myself. My PSN gamertag is Moppytheshotgun, i currently have max friends, but i LOVE to play crucible. My problem is that with the new Hunter subclass, soon each class will have a support class. Well everyone seems to forget about the warlock when we talk about support Why not, like every subclass in destiny, both warlock subclasses have the ability to absolutely overwhelm 2 even 3 guardians at a time "at times when played right" But Nova bomb can nuke an enemy team in seconds, Radiance on the other hand is probably the hardest subclass in destiny to define. We have everyones (favorite/least favorite) Self-rez. The second that comes to mind is Radiant Skin, for those whole like the glory of being in Radiance, but don't need to die first. That leads us to the start of this guide. Song of flame. Song of flame.... is perhaps the most under rated ability in destiny. I say this because there really are not many things in the same that reward you for just standing near your fireteam while using your super. Everyone likes super, its just a fact, but sometimes your team mates will make poor choices... that is not what this is about. Song of flame gives you a (support +10) whenever your teammate kills an enemy with an ability that recently came off of cooldown (while being in your vicinity). Support +10 might not seem like much, but if you can average 5 in any one of your supers it is the same as scoring 2 assists... but you do a fraction of the work. Song of flame is the definition of support for a warlock, any plain old warlock can get assits, but only a song of flame radiance can give you the support + 10 in a match. So you might say to me "moppy, it doesn't take a genius to realize that support +10 means you know how to support" and i would agree with you, but the point of this guide is to make a class that just supports way to hard, and allows you and your team mates to get plenty of bonus points during anymatch. (The Forever burner) This is my example build of how to get more bang for your buck as a supportlock Class: Warlock Subclass: Sunsinger Grenade: Firebolt perfered Super perk: Song of flame Melee perk: Sheild Subclass tree 1: Personal preference Ability modifier 1 : Personal preference Subclass tree 2: Personal preference Ability modifier 2: Touch of flame Exotic weapon : Bad juju Exotic armor : Heart of the Paracix Fire Other Notes: Get a Legendary helm that has the perk "increased super energy from grenade/melee kills" So i had finished this guide earlier, but it got deleted in an accident so i will finish it later (THINGS TO ADD) Build explanation Support role explanation Snowballing Burning Brighter and Longer To team or not to team
