Normal Raid Warlock Strats
Hi everyone. I posted recently asking about good weapon loadouts for the King's Fall raid, and now I'm wondering more about which subclasses work best.
The first and last time I ran the raid we made it to Golgoroth before someone had to leave and it all fell apart. I ran a fireborn sunsinger with the Tlaloc as my exotic, cause holding my super = OP. I found that when I died, there was rarely really a good time to self res and I feel like it was sort of a waste. So I'd like to know what kind of warlock might actually be useful. What I'm currently thinking is sunsinger with song of flame and basically pop my super as often as possible for ads to generate lots of orbs and spread all the fusion grenade lurv. Then I won't use the Tlaloc and I'll have my exotic slot open for something else. Thoughts? Thanks :)

Edited by kklathan8613: 11/16/2015 9:18:46 AM[b]Weapons:[/b] Scout Rifle /Pulse Rifle High Impact Sniper Rifle (1000 Yard Stare) Machine Gun (Solar preferred. Raid HMG very preferred) [b]Sunsinger Build: [/b]- Max Armor / Max Recovery - Solar Grenade - Flame Shield - Self Rez - Radiant Will - Gift of the Sun [b]Stormcaller Build: [/b]- Max Armor / Max Recovery - Storm Grenade - Rising Storm - Superconductor - Pulsewave - Electrostatic Mind [b]Opening the Gate: [/b]- Run Stormcaller Shotgun || Sword instead Sniper || HMG Doesn't matter if your are right left or center; clear adds and open doors once adds are down. 1 shotgun blast will kill Taken Phalanx and open a door on normal mode. [b]Jumping Puzzles:[/b] Max agility and Sword. That is all. [b]Totems:[/b] - Personally I run Sunsinger from here on out. Stormcaller works too but Self Rez can be clutch. - Boomer Knights die from 1 precision hit. Kill them before you run to the center if you were the brand holder. - Take out the Wizard with your HMG, if you have lots of heavy ammo take care of the knights that spawn in with it as well. [b]Warpriest:[/b] - Black. Freaking. Spindle. It is love. It is life. It. Is. The. Very. Best. DPS. You. Can. Do. Use it. - Take out adds with your primary, save grenades for Knights. - Black. Spindle. - Did I mention Black Spindle? Golgoroth: - Black. Spindle. - If you are on add control during Taken phase, use Stormcaller. Otherwise Sunsinger. - Black Spindle. - I think I forgot Black Spindle.... So... Black Spindle. [b]Sisters:[/b] - Touch of Malice is King in this fight. If you don't have it... Spindle works fine but is harder to use. - Watch timing, watch the snipers. [b]Oryx:[/b] - Touch of Malice is King in this fight. If you do not have it that is ok as the fight is still doable. - Do NOT use Spindle on this fight. Oryx does not have a crit spot so the exotic perk is worthless. - Watch your timing. _ Watch lots of youtube videos before you attempt him - The mechanics are not hard... just involved. The timing is tight and if you fail the team fails. Edit: Don't worry about orb generation as a Warlock. Nightstalker Hunters are king of orb generation in Kings Fall.

Normal, voidwalker all the way Hard, storm/void on preference until oryx then sunsinger.

2 RepliesOn normal I'm stormcaller all the way. Add clearance is amazing especially when clearing the acolyte parts on golgoroth ( you can get almost all of the spawn wave). Hard mode and its self res from war priest on...

2 RepliesGo with stormtcaller all the way to Golgoroth. Pretty important that you get a stormtrance for the taken rounds on Golgoroth. It'll help your team a lot if you can kill those thrall with it. For the rest of the raid, self rez is the way to go. Also, from beginning to Golgoroth use Black Spindle as your exotic. For the rest, Touch of Malice

Sunsinger-song of flame for Oryx, Daughters, and such Stormcaller-superconductor for golgoroth

3 RepliesI run storm trance. Great for clearing adds. I switch my weapon load out throughout the raid. Apple of dischord is my primary until deathsingers. When I switch to ToM. My secondary is 1000 yard stare on war priest. Then switch to black spindle for golgoroth. And back to 1000 yard for the rest. Heavy is void exotic sword for war priest. And then raid rocket from then on.

2 RepliesFor normal mode I would run stormcaller up to the death singers. Then switch to self res
-
4 Repliesas far as golgoroth, id say go stormcaller to help wipe adds. then use sniper, sleeper simulant, then a solid scout or pulse rifle

1 ReplyStay with sunslinger, two grenades is really helpful especially at the sisters and Oryx. On normal there isn't really any issue controlling ads till the last 2 sections.

1 ReplyTlaloc 1000 yard stare (or something similar) Machime gun (Probably NM one)
