One thing i learn is that using the exotic gauntlets sunbreakers with solar grenades and touch of flame... With so many people with that mentality i can basically get free kills because of how strong the grenades are and how people are stupid enough to rush someone with a super... And i'm proof of how fun it is to wear those gauntlets, pop a radiance and watch as the entire enemy team runs into grenades that last 8 seconds and deal burn damage, and oh boy is it fun in control to rush b flag with a radiance and absolutely obliterate the team. Ps. It only works if you don't get sniped but if you know how to stop that you're fine. If you have sunbreakers on a warlock try them out

  • I dont have sunbreakers. But what I mean is compare it with other supers. Rushing b line with arc blade, HoS, Stormtrance(1 second takes to get 7373737 kills with it) and golden gun.

  • It takes a second or 2 to kill someone with touch of flame solar grenades but since you have radiance it only takes like 1 and a half seconds if you bombard enemies

  • It's still the weakest super... besides maybe defender (in a random team. Defender in a coordinated team is beast mode) I run storm and I only got shut down maybe twice in super this IB? One was a fist of panic and the other was ionic blink on vertigo lol

  • Sunsinger is still good in PvE. Voidwalker is still better in alot of situations, but sunsinger can be very effective as long as you have sunbreaker gauntlets. In pvp you might as well be a deranged flower girl throwing toasted marshmallows at everybody.

  • But not competitive by any means. I mean for God's sake sunsingers already had the 3rd worst KD in just about every game mode. (Even elims) BEFORE the nerf. Now they are utter garbage in pvp

  • I mailed sunsinger for quite a long time. But the recent nerf was excruciating. First they cut off our appendages (viking funeral) And then they held them in our face and began mutilating them (nerfing firebolt and flame shield) Currently in pvp Radiant skin is basically worthless. Song of flame is worthless unless with a team who will utilize it. Basically every melee option excluding flame shield is useless. VF is basically pointless because the burn doesn't last long enough to actually get it to stack properly, and the increase isn't enough to matter in any situation at all. The only semi viable options are double fusion pleb nades. Or sunbreaker/solar nades which are really only good for area denial or maybe clusters of enemies insistent on hanging out directly on a capture point, in which case a single Voidwalker scatter nades with NM will be infinitely better. Or just a nova bomb for that matter.

  • I like sunsinger and that's all if you think it's useless i'm sorry but i have to disagree, sure they nerfed flame shield but i always saw it as a way to win a melee fight so i'm not mad, viking funeral was changed pretty hard but i still found a use for it... In boss fights, put on solar grenades and touch of flame and Viking funeral and just delete bosses, the perk that makes sunstrike kills explode is pretty fun in pve so i wouldn't say flame shield is the only good melee, then again in my post i mentioned that song of flame can only be used if you're in a fireteam and that's true so i don't pick it at all, radiant skin is so the super lasts longer, the little extra damage reduction is nice tho it helps sometimes. I'm going to end this by telling you to at least try sunsinger again if you have sunbreakers if you still hate it fine i can't help you i guess our play styles are way too different

  • I still use sunsinger. In PvE, especially hard raids where rez is actually usefull. Or a nightfall with a solar burn. Sunbreaker gauntlets are the only reason I still use that subclass.

  • So slower than if you just used your primary weapon while in radiance.

  • Yeah but it normally takes 4 seconds to kill with a solar grenade normally plus i'm chucking 4 to 5 grenades in the general direction of the enemy and with sunbreakers they last 8 seconds, 2 grenades per second and you can cover an entire room or hallway with fire in the duration of your super if you aren't using fireborn, plus if the enemy can't rush you with a shotgun cuz you're literally surrounded by tiny suns... I played sunsinger this entire iron banner week and only got shut down mid-super once and it was a sniper

  • Just got sunbreakers from an engram. I tried them out. It makes sunsinger MUCH better. But still weak against other supers. You cant win on a 1v1 against other supers but If I already covered area with little suns the other super will be -blam!-. If Im not ready I'll lose. It is funny to use sunbreakers btw. Normal solar grenades dissapear so quick.
