Liar’s Handshake Build (Must try for any PvE hunter!)
[b]Edit:[/b] Apparently this has been a thing for a while and I didn’t know about it…. so enjoy the text wall I guess.
I’ve been using these gauntlets all week. They’re fun in Crucible, but I decided to take them into a NF today with Way of the Warrior on Arcstrider. With this combination, you can effectively stun-lock almost any boss or powerful enemy in the game (still testing, not sure if it’s 100%).
Not only that, but the healing burst will out-heal pretty much anything that gets thrown your way, as well as the boss slam.
If you dodge before beginning your attack (which consists of spamming your melee), you can also extend your reach. If the boss knocks you away, you can easily pull yourself right back into melee range and continue your “assault”.
All this allows your teammates to go nuts on the boss in the meantime.
I don’t think it’s overpowered considering how much focus you need to put on the boss. But if you haven’t tried this yet, I’d suggest giving it a shot. It’s a lot of fun.

1 ReplyAs others have also said, pair this with Liar's Handshake and a One-Two punch shotgun to get some insane DPS on bosses.

Arcstrider melee in general has a sort of "glitch" or maybe intended feature which allows you to stun-lock some bosses and bigger enemies as you said. It works on all grounded Gambit bosses for example, but obviously it's not going to have the same effect on enemies with a strange hit box (like Minotaur bosses) or raid/dungeon bosses like Morgeth probably or Kell Echo (at least I don't think it does, haven't done much testing, but know it dosen't work on really big enemies).

I really Liars Handshake for Gambit or casual PvE encounters. I use that or Assassin’s Cowl with a one-two punch shotgun and an arc well build and punch my little heart out. Any weapon with swashbuckler would help too.

4 RepliesInteresting how I posted a build for this a couple days ago when somebody challenged me to make an outside-the-box Hunter build as a Warlock Main, and suddenly you're talking like you were the first to discover it...

1 ReplyOnly problem is, nobody sane is gonna take an arcstrider into a Grandmaster, over a stasis or void build, cos it sucks hard in endgame content. Whats good in low tier content doesnt always work well in gms.

Yeah it's been a thing since Liars Handshakes were released. Back when 1 2 punch wasn't nerfed.

Will try it on a legend lost sector. Thx for the info. I don't see anyone using this in a GM, since you do not want to get up close and personal with any boss, unless is the lame lake of shadows fat guy. Same with dodging, the only dodge I ever use in a GM is to go invis.

Imma try this setup, good watchin out
