Best subclass

[tawdry niche]

im new to warlock and i want to know the best subclass for it, i have all the dlcs and i need to know because it will deter what exotic armor i will try to go for

also what are the main stats to focus warlock on

[atomic trail]

tbh it depends, most people use solar for raid content

[tawdry niche]

well?

[atomic trail]

yeah

[tawdry niche]

im kinda lf a offensive warlock

[atomic trail]

solar has offense too

[tawdry niche]

my playstyle is up front and trynna kill as many things as possible

[atomic trail]

pick the fragments that do stuff with scorch

or just do void

[tawdry niche]

now that i say that, i sound like a titan

[atomic trail]

devour is pogchamp

get yourself a weapon with incandescent and use fragments that buff scorch

[tawdry niche]

whats that?

[atomic trail]

void subclass keyword

[tawdry niche]

i have a shotgun with that

thats it, i dont pay attention to elements on guns

[atomic trail]

void warlocks have devour, meaning they heal on void ability kills

[tawdry niche]

oh ok

[atomic trail]

tbh all warlock subclasses can be good

if it's pure extreme aggression you want, arc is a good choice

[tawdry niche]

i just need one to stick with

[tawdry niche]

i want chaos

[atomic trail]

void for sure then

get a Nezarec's Sin exotic helmet

[tawdry niche]

i dont have that

[atomic trail]

spam grenades

[tawdry niche]

damn

[atomic trail]

you can get it as a random drop, xur might sell it, or farm a legend lost sector when the drops are Helmets

[tawdry niche]

i have crown of tempests

[atomic trail]

great for arc

[tawdry niche]

yup

i think i might go with arc until i can nez

[atomic trail]

arc is excellent for add clear on low difficulty content, not as useful in stuff like raids though

[tawdry niche]

oh

[tawdry niche]

so its bad

[atomic trail]

nah

just less useful in more difficult content

[tawdry niche]

so its bad

[atomic trail]

guh

[tawdry niche]

first thing ima do it lightfall

legendary for rewards

[atomic trail]

bro if you have lightfall just use strand

[tawdry niche]

whats the best class for that?

well yeah i plan to get strand but ima do legendary

so i need a class in the mean time to carry me through that

[atomic trail]

probably void or solar

[tawdry niche]

solar might be the way to go

so i use healing rift

whats the best jump

[atomic trail]

user preference

I prefer balanced glide

[tawdry niche]

grenade?

[atomic trail]

fusion

[tawdry niche]

dont have that one yet

[atomic trail]

zamn

go to ikora lol

[tawdry niche]

ill work on that, and what aspects?

[tawdry niche]

i will

[atomic trail]

as far as fragments go I use Ember of Ashes, Ember of Char, Ember of Torches, and Ember of Searing

ashes and char buff scorch, which is very good when paired with an incandescent weapon

[tawdry niche]

aspects?

also i have fragments, i just dont the ability to use them, theres nothing there. do i have to do a specific story or something

[atomic trail]

touch of flame

and user preference

you need to meditate at the armillary thing next to ikora

[tawdry niche]

did it alr

got the build set up

i have most exotics guns

is there a specific solar exotic i should use?

[whole zealot]

Seems like you're already good in here so imma just tell you nice pfp

[tawdry niche]

[atomic trail]

my honest reaction to this information

[whole zealot]

I love batukam

[tawdry niche]

either of u got any recommendations for solar exotics i should use

[atomic trail]

tbh it doesn't really matter

[tawdry niche]

well i need some gun ideas

[whole zealot]

Exotic guns?

[tawdry niche]

any really

[atomic trail]

quicksilver storm

[tawdry niche]

but mostly exotic, cause i dont got alot of solar guns

[atomic trail]

catalyst makes it strand

[tawdry niche]

got it alr but thats not solar

[atomic trail]

idk calus mini tool

[tawdry niche]

guess ill just run my hunter gun builds

[tawdry niche]

dont got

[atomic trail]

tbh you're gonna be using strand for most of the campaign

[whole zealot]

I mean you don't really need solar guns afaik

It just helps to have

[tawdry niche]

i dont have strand

[atomic trail]

yeah but due to spoiler reasons you will be using it during the campaign

[tawdry niche]

alr completed it

[atomic trail]

oh

[whole zealot]

Trustee is still currently craftable, it's nice with full auto and its got good perks

[tawdry niche]

did it on hunter

[whole zealot]

Only thing is it's a raid weapon

[tawdry niche]

ill just run my reg builds

ikelos smg and wither hoard

[atomic trail]

yeah that'll work

witherhoard ol reliable

[tawdry niche]

sad they nerfed it, still a swiss knife

[whole zealot]

Witherhoard and Lemon just synergize so well

[tawdry niche]

lemon?

[whole zealot]

Nerf only affected the pool duration, direct hits will still grant same duration as before

[whole zealot]

LeMonarque

[tawdry niche]

[tawdry niche]

me when i cant use two exotics at the same time

[whole zealot]

Yeah I'm just saying both work

[atomic trail]

me when tormentors

[tawdry niche]

hate em

[whole zealot]

Also that emoji somehow crashes my discord when I click on it lmao

[tawdry niche]

[atomic trail]

skill issue lmao

[whole zealot]

Indeed

[tawdry niche]

sanguine alchemy, starfire protocol, karnstein amlets, apotheosis veil, eye of another world, and crown of tempests

which one should i use?

[atomic trail]

starfire not even a question

or karnstein ig

karnstein because it will still work with strand

[tawdry niche]

using starfire rn

now what stats should i focus on?

[atomic trail]

resilience because imagine dying

discipline

recovery

uhhhh idk

[whole zealot]

Yeah just those 3

Recovery only because you don't really wanna run healing rifts

You could lowkey neglect discipline a bit too

[atomic trail]

i run healing rifts lol

[tawdry niche]

i dont have good gear rn but ill keep those in mind

[whole zealot]

Since the starfire regen buff is a direct percentage and not like a "300% recharge rate" kinda thing

[atomic trail]

true

but starfire will be useless when you are strand empowered

[whole zealot]

If you're running healing rifts then yea you need disc

[whole zealot]

True, but campaign strand doesn't even need an exotic unless you're doing legendary

[atomic trail]

he is doing legendary therefore karnstein is probably the better option

because strand melee is really strong for some reason

[tawdry niche]

why is warlock fashion so hard

hunter was like a quick and easy one shader

i have to use 3 diff shaders for this look to be ok

ok well thanks to both of you @atomic trail @whole zealot you both helped alot
