Important Warlock Loadout Questions
I don't think I am a scrub (been to Lighthouse twice with some buddies around my skill level) but I am still curious to what the popular perks are to run while being a warlock, sunsinger and voidwalker.
Usually I spec as much recovery/speed as I can for either class (exception being going for max armor with ram for voidwalker)
Sunsinger: I use Viking funeral and the perk that makes all grenades ignite enemies. Is this ideal or is something better?
Voidwalker: I like to use bloom and the vortex effect for my Nova Bomb.
Let me know what everyone's preferred loadouts are as well as any good exotics that compliment them.
Thanks.

Sunsinger: spec for armor and recovery. Use viking funeral and touch of flame. Voidwalker: spec for recovery and agility.I use bloom and annihilate, but thats just preference.

3 Replieswhen level advantages are on i normally run specs for Sunsinger with as much armor & recovery with the ram. which i know is really weird since its a voidwalker helmet but it makes you into more of a tank since radiance whether its self rez or radiance skin to reduce the incoming damage just makes it more op like otherwise without level advantages i run armor, recovery and agility and keep viking funeral with touch of flame for the firebolt grenades

1 ReplyFor your voidwalker do you use angry magic? I ask because annihilate doesn't actually do much for the vortex void bomb and you get a little more armor from the angry magic perk so you can ear the ram and have max armor. That is a big deal as you can survive trip mines, flux grenades sticking you, 2 melee attacks if you are also hitting them with a melee (due to the heal effect of ram), 2 THORN HEADSHOTS, or a shot from an exotic hand cannon and then a melee ( this happens very frequently with the last ord users.). As for your sunsinger question I would say that the sunsinger grenade burn is great...if you are aggressive and are using firebolt grenades (this is a must as burn is not worth 2 perks for the other 2 grenades). You can easily take out a crowd with a single shot to each individual burning target. If you use your grenades in a more defensive manner you might be better off using the 2 grenade perk and throwing them as you see yourself being closed in on by enemies. the viking funeral burn also has great synergy hile trying to defend bases with another players as you can throw a firebolt grenade into the point and you and your teammate just need to mop up 3/4 dead players, even the ones trying to run will die a fiery death if they have even taken any other damage.

I play only a sunsinger in trials and do this with full burn loadout and self ressurection. But in regular cruic I am a voidwalker be heard. I prefer to go for a novabomb with a big and long lasting vortex, I can't count the times people have died from the vortex because they just walked in it after the initial blow. Other than that life steal has saved my life more often than I'd like to admit. For my full loadout you can always check my carecters :)

Void walker should almost always go Nothing manacles with maxed armor. You'll have pretty good stats in everything else. Then just play bloom because you can literally kill 2 birds with one stone, sometimes 3. Fireborn sunsinger doesn't really matter what you go because its weaker then people let on. Radiant skin should always use max armor+ The ram. It makes you impossible to kill. Use viking+touch and gg nade everything that moves.

Bloom is good for pve but for pvp id run extrnded/bigger vortex and -blam!- agility

5 RepliesFor Sunsinger, you may want to consider running a full armor build with the Ram. It makes you super tank and lets you survive two headshots from Thorn. You should also try using Viking Funeral and the Gift of the Sun, the two grenade bonus, so you can have two firebolt grenades you just fling around and hit enemies for a lot of DOT. If you don't have the Ram, try using the Voidfang Vestments so that every time you die, you get another two grenades. I know thats a Voidwalker exotic, but it pairs really well with the two fireboat grenades. If you're playing ToO y
