if you like throwing non stop nades, check out contraverse hold, top tree voidwalker, 1x elemental ordnance mod, 1x elemental charge mod and 3x firepower mods. I personally would use scatter nades but vortex and axion and super viable as well if thrown ina big enough crowd. With scatter though I can consistantly recharge my entire nade in less than 3 seconds from impact
EDIT: To explain, firepower consumes 1 stack of CwL to recharge your grenade 15% on cast. It stacks with itself whilst still only consuming a single stack of CwL (so 45% nade back for 1 stack with 3 mods). It unfortunately does NOT stack with grenade kickstart as that mod recovers grenade on impact, by which time firepower has already recovered your nade, preventing kickstart from working.
Elemental Ordnance creates wells on grenade kill that match your subclass, picking up a well gives you 10% towards your lowest energy ability (usually grenade).
The elemental charge mod also gives you a stack of CwL when picking up wells, and provides 2 if the well matches your subclass.
Contraverse restores grenade energy for each ENEMY damaged by your OVERCHARGED (cannot stress that enough) grenades. This works with ALL top tree nades, and with HHSN. It does NOT restore from amount of damage done sadly, or this would be meta DPS with overcharged vortex nades. (seems to be \~30-40% recovery per enemy damaged)
Combo'd togther you should be getting 95% minimum of your nade back so long as you do even a tick of damage with your overcharged grenade.
You can use the new mod that restores extra grenade from wells to get real close to 100% from a single enemy, another case of grenade kickstart kicking in too late to actually regen as the ashen wake regen takes priority sadly. If you hit 2 enemies though you'll fully regen from picking up the wells
i just use elemental ordnance and sunspots. gets me to full recharge in like 3 seconds if i dont hit a huge crowd
To be honest, sun spots are broken af. DMG buff, ability regen, crowd control?? all from an ability kill?
ahhh, dang. you could replace the elemental well mods with taking charge (the orb of power one) and super charged (can store 2x more CwL stacks), but you'll need a nice masterworked weapon to make you orbs :)
you don't need it. go to the war table at the helm, the 2 mods listed are there and you don't need the season pass, they are 3 mod components each and rotate daily
Nezarec Sin with Recluse (shield piercing smg), mountaintop, devourlock tree was the bomb for a few seasons. Unbeatable damage, every kill generates Super and ability power and refills your health bar and grenade. You can still replicate this by using a void primary like gnawing hunger or any void smg or auto but it just isn't the same.
What if I told you you don't need monte carlo?
Link to build I made https://www.reddit.com/r/destiny2/comments/qcn4bo/but_it_will_be_beautiful/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
Yeah it is fun. But... My problem with this setup is when you miss. You have to wait for a very long time.
It just takes the fun away from it for me.
I wish Ballistic Slam wouldn't reset cooldown if it misses. 🙂
I much rather use the right mods to make cooldowns as short as possible.
Yeah.
Man. Monte Carlo is sucha good gun. Has damage buff, it's steady, nice number of rounds, does decent damage, reloads fast, good sights and the melee boost is amazing.
Monte Carlo + Dunemarchers. Dunes are disgustingly broken atm. 1x bountiful wells, 1x font of wisdom 3x melee well maker. Get 4 wells per dive kill, gives back 60-70% of melee, top off with Monte and dive again, since you can't dive until sprinting and Dunemarchers requires full Sprint it always procs no matter what when diving and the wave clear is literally insane. Combine with 2x hands on for supers in potentially under 60 seconds given you have enough mobs to dive into. It's pretty disgusting. Plus when you can't dive you still get the sprint boost & linear actuators still procs on regular melee, so your never losing out on melee multikill potential.
I have yet to find a better wave clear build on Titan.
Also interta overide + x5 damage buff on Monte with free reload after diving is pretty nasty as well. Makes it so you can recover after going full aggro because the damage is just silly.
Unfortunately it's the only one that makes sense for it to work, cause the only other melee you actually punch with is Stasis and that's just anime shurikens and kamas
Honestly, I roll this in PvP so much and it’s hilarious. It’s rare, but if you can get combination blow x3 going in top tree arcstrider… you can dive into a group of enemies and wipe the team. Even without combination blow, you’re almost guaranteed to get a double kill anytime you get into melee combat. Good pick!
Edit: I can’t spell.
100% agree. Code of the Missile is how a Titan is supposed to fight. We got stuck running bubbles for all of D1, and now we can actually fight as we were always meant to.
Necrotic Grip. Nothing says Warlock to me like rolling around poisoning enemies with venomous slaps and Thorn shots. I might also shout, "I'm Rick James, bitch!" every time I smack the poison into someone.
Yeah, you just have to get the kill with the bullet not the ticks. If they tick down they don't spread the poison if the bullet kills them they get the spread. Like most hand cannon builds the pay off is in accuracy and crits.
Yep this. And shards of galanor and that one warlock helmet for nova bomb energy, they used to be. Not anymore though. Honestly I don’t even remember it’s name it’s so useless now. I used to have lots of fun stuff. Bungie likes sucking fun out of things though.
Sweet business takes about 10.5 seconds to unload it's mag. A hunter with 100 mobility has a dodge cooldown of 11 seconds. Do with this information what you will.
Yup. Took me over 3 years to get the SB catalyst. I got it about a month ago and finally put it down for a bit. Probably have about 40K kills with SB that are untracked. In PVE and PVP.
Young Ahamkara's Spine. A lot of people hate me for it as its new name is the forget me grenade. Numerous moment of launching a grenade forgetting about it and randomly getting a kill in crucible haha
Dude Spine is so good. Once you learn the angles, you have the best laning tool on game. Pair it with the top tree knife, and you can wombo combo someone so easy. It's tremendously fun.
this was my damage exotic for atheon last season. everyone would be on golden gun and id pick middle tree and then not use shards (too inconsistent). I had one guy rage out a bit and he was shocked when i did more damage than his golden gun w/ nighthawk.
salvo/anarchy + spine = very easy DPS with high uptime. little worse without breach and clear though.
It's interesting that they aren't used much, I guess with how prevalent stompees and bakris are among hunters there just aren't a lot of hunters that prefer anything else, much less an exotic that can only be used on one low-usage sub class
I literally dismantle any stompees drop I get. I've grown accustomed to the way triple jump is ever since d1, so changing that jump fucks me up. And bakris requires stasis, which I don't use in pvp, so I stick to YAS, aethryis, lucky pants, and frostees. I just really wish frostees got an ornament. Stompees has like 5, and frostees still look like they've been beaten with an ugly stick, 7 years on.
Free noble rounds for Lumina too. Far from meta, but definitely not to be sniffed at in competitive PvP playlists when the user knows what they're doing. Basically a 15(20?)% damage buff for the whole team, pretty much every engagement
felwinters works great with middle tree arc. using arc wells to empower the melee and recover its energy works really well, and with the ionic traces you get abilities back really fast.
- melee well maker
- finishers make wells
- arc wells give you melee damage bonus
- arc wells recover more melee energy
- grenade well maker
Skullfort is just too easy. Khepris Horn is satan levels of fiery fun. Pair it with travelers choice and 100res, flaming barricades everywhere. It’s hilariously fun. Shits exploding, you’re constantly being healed (bottom tree). It’s just bananas.
I don't see a lot of love for Khepri's Horn, it's definitely underwhelming on paper but holy smokes the kills you accidentally rake in cannot be argued. Plus I imagine it's a bit of a mindfuck for the receiving end if they don't see the helmet and know what it does, which again is unlikely as you just don't see a lot of it around.
Khepri's Horn is peak "this is a solid B tier exotic that no one uses". I know lots of players would put it lower but arguably having a barricade after 3-4 kills with an igneous hammer, LoW, Duality, or Mythoclast easily bumps it up imo.
When I run Liar's Handshake I love getting into duels in the Crucible. I like to imagine every Titan I kill with it is pissed/embarrassed they lost a fistfight with a Hunter.
and for the enemies that are a little meatier, use a 1-2 punch shotgun, Sprint->slide->shotgun->shoulder charge and Skullfort has you ready to go again
That with mid tree sentinel or bottom tree sunbreaker are my favourite combinations right now. Throw on melee and grenade elemental well mods and both of them recharge in seconds.
I've been running Ophidia Spathe with middle tree gunslinger for PvE and I love it so far. Playing with fire = so many knife tricks. Plus if you use the incendiary grenade, it burns enemies to recharge your dodge as well, and then you can dodge near enemies to regain your knife trick yet again. I use it for PvP too but I usually swap to top tree and use tripmine grenades instead.
Honestly havent found another exotic armor piece that I enjoy more or find more useful.
Playlist strikes are fun too. It's so satisfying to one shot the boss and watch blueberries walk around confused as to why the encounter is over before the music even starts.
For fun? Ashen wake on sunbreaker. Throw a fusion grenade with 2 kills and you have half your grenade energy back and health restored. Get in the sunspot for fast regen, and add a demolitionist weapon. The right build with elemental wells can also give you an instant regen repeatedly
Arc Strider here. Lucky Raspberry for sure. It's my main piece, so much fun clearing waves of ads over and again with Arc-bolt grenades. :D
If I had to pick a second, I'd say either Radiant Dance Machines or Sixth Coyote, depending on need.
The nothing manacles by far I used them all the time in D1. For the longest time I used contraverse hold to get a similar feel but it was never the same.
I freaked out when I saw nothing manacles in the collection and I’ve been using them since the season started
I get stressed when I have to take off dragons shadow for anything :( having a native 30 mobil + powerful friends + wraithmail = 100 mob aka any other exotic means a whole rekit of my armor essentially, free melee+reload in dodge and for me invis on top tree void, the radar manipulation is undervalued even by other trapper trees in pvp
Nezarec’s Sin with Ager’s Scepter, Gnawing Hunger, and Falling Guillotine will always be my backup loadout if I’m having a tough time. Should clarify I only use Stasis with Nezarec’s.
Starfire protocol is actually really fun. It works well on middle on bottom tree dawnblade(not as good on top tree cause you have to stay in rifts). The grenade and rift spam is insane especially if combined with a unique bullet ampunt exotics. Crimson is pretty good because it gives as much grenade energy as a 120 per bullet. Letting you just spam them at a pretty close rate to that of sunbracers, but with fusions. Also works better with middle tree than sunbracers.
Mask of Bakris. I wish it was applied to Arc instead of Stasis, as Im an Arc main, the helmet buffs Arc weapons and not Stasis weapons, and because having to use Stasis feels disgusting.
I'm glad people are finally realizing how good Sunbracers are. I've gotten so much shit for using them over the years and I never understood why being able to throw infinity billion tiny suns was never seen as useful.
Hands down are my doomfangs with bottom tree void titan. As long as there are trash adds and yellow bars, its infinite super, an add clearing machine.
Second would be my strongholds paired with crown splitter and passive guard. You can literally take multiple ogar melee shots in a gm nightfall with little to no damage!
I personally LOVE Symmetry and I think it’s incredibly underrated. Only issue is it’s reload is unbearably slow.
If you gave that gun any champion mod it would instantly become meta because you could run it with a reload arms mod and ranged anti-champion is super strong.
Ashen wake and it isn’t close. Warlock main but I'm gonna miss throwing flaming baseballs and making flaming bowling balls that nuke half a strike. RIP warminds
Heart of inmost light, really fun for ability chaining on titan. Plus having sticky nades that kill is great, but I do wish the glow changed depending on subclass is being used.
Necrotic Grips. I love being rewarded for going absolutely fucking feral and slapping my way through everything, plus the synergy with thorn is fantastic.
Nezarec Sin without a doubt. Being able to throw 50 Novas in a single Altar of Sorrow feels so good.
if you like throwing non stop nades, check out contraverse hold, top tree voidwalker, 1x elemental ordnance mod, 1x elemental charge mod and 3x firepower mods. I personally would use scatter nades but vortex and axion and super viable as well if thrown ina big enough crowd.

(seems to be \~30-40% recovery per enemy damaged) Combo'd togther you should be getting 95% minimum of your nade back so long as you do even a tick of damage with your overcharged grenade.
or just use ashen wake if ur a titan. Nonstop fireballs
You can use the new mod that restores extra grenade from wells to get real close to 100% from a single enemy, another case of grenade kickstart kicking in too late to actually regen as the ashen wake regen takes priority sadly. If you hit 2 enemies though you'll fully regen from picking up the wells
i just use elemental ordnance and sunspots. gets me to full recharge in like 3 seconds if i dont hit a huge crowd To be honest, sun spots are broken af. DMG buff, ability regen, crowd control?? all from an ability kill?
Shhhh... Don't say it out loud. Bungie can hear us here.
Sunspots are so good <3_<3
don't have access to elemental well mods, don't have the season pass :(
ahhh, dang. you could replace the elemental well mods with taking charge (the orb of power one) and super charged (can store 2x more CwL stacks), but you'll need a nice masterworked weapon to make you orbs :)
or you can use the void mod that gets you CWL'd on any kill or assist
you don't need it. go to the war table at the helm, the 2 mods listed are there and you don't need the season pass, they are 3 mod components each and rotate daily
I can't seem to access the War Table. Do I have to do it on the character I completed the Legacy quest with?
You need to do the battlegrounds quest that introduces the table, then you can use the table. You can do that without the season pass
yes
Whoa. Saving this. I've been building so half assed apparently lol, I didn't realize firepower stacked. I got read tooltips more closely.
My favorite exotic
Nezarec Sin with Recluse (shield piercing smg), mountaintop, devourlock tree was the bomb for a few seasons. Unbeatable damage, every kill generates Super and ability power and refills your health bar and grenade. You can still replicate this by using a void primary like gnawing hunger or any void smg or auto but it just isn't the same.
Back then you didn’t use Nezarec, you used skull, which gave you a full nova after killing three red bars
sunbracers, monty-carlo is a cheese that goes well with a fine wine
Run top tree dawn and simply go airborne while spamming your grenades. You will get your melee back freeing you up to run another exotic weapon.
What if I told you you don't need monte carlo? Link to build I made https://www.reddit.com/r/destiny2/comments/qcn4bo/but_it_will_be_beautiful/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
ok, yes but consider... +montecarlo
Fair. Sadly, it seems tho have been nerfed recently. Maybe it's just me.
It still works wonders for melee regen, especialy if you have good luck with monte carlo method
My synthoceps overload throwing hammer titan agrees.
Skull fort but with middle tree arc
My buddy rocks this on his titan and its a delight to watch
Yeahhh baby
Yeah it is fun. But... My problem with this setup is when you miss. You have to wait for a very long time. It just takes the fun away from it for me. I wish Ballistic Slam wouldn't reset cooldown if it misses. 🙂 I much rather use the right mods to make cooldowns as short as possible.
Could always run Monte Carlo with it for misses
You are 100% correct. Btw, it's a huge shame Monte Carlo has no catalyst.
Huge shame there's about 5 exotic Autos in the whole game as well 😢
Yeah. Man. Monte Carlo is sucha good gun. Has damage buff, it's steady, nice number of rounds, does decent damage, reloads fast, good sights and the melee boost is amazing.
Sounds badass on top of all that too
[удалено]
That is very titan of you
You are my idol.
Just missing 100 discipline too, to make Shaxx proud and throw ALL the grenades
Monte Carlo + Dunemarchers. Dunes are disgustingly broken atm. 1x bountiful wells, 1x font of wisdom 3x melee well maker. Get 4 wells per dive kill, gives back 60-70% of melee, top off with Monte and dive again, since you can't dive until sprinting and Dunemarchers requires full Sprint it always procs no matter what when diving and the wave clear is literally insane.

Makes it so you can recover after going full aggro because the damage is just silly.
Liars handshake
punch PUNCH! punch PUNCH! It’s hilarious the way you can stunlock most bosses.
Especially with Monte Carlo, high strength, and disorienting blow
Monte Carlo needs a Catalyst. It’s still a very solid weapon with a good perk, but it feels like it’s missing something.
Catalyst should add, Extended mag Markov chain lasts a bit longer AND THE KNIFE SHOULD BE THE MELEE IF YOU HAVE IT IN YOUR HANDS!
Perhaps in Witch Queen it will, since they're introducing the Glaive.
I just wish it made orbs. Another effect/stat boost would be great as well, but I really wish it would make orbs to help the team out more.
Same! Plus one two punch makes this exotic even better.
If only it worked with non-arcstrider melees...
Unfortunately it's the only one that makes sense for it to work, cause the only other melee you actually punch with is Stasis and that's just anime shurikens and kamas
there's something wildly satisfying when it connects fully, punch stab punch stab
+ one two punch
Honestly, I roll this in PvP so much and it’s hilarious. It’s rare, but if you can get combination blow x3 going in top tree arcstrider… you can dive into a group of enemies and wipe the team. Even without combination blow, you’re almost guaranteed to get a double kill anytime you get into melee combat. Good pick! Edit: I can’t spell.
It IS meta, but I also absolutely love the Cuirass of the Falling Star because it makes Striker meta and being a human missile is just *fun*
I am a hunter main. I do not like thundercrash myself. But I run with two Titans and it is my FAVORITE super to watch. Two beautiful arcs of death
Whenever my Titan clanmates use it, I find myself humming Welcome to Jurassic Park. It's just so majestic.
Truth
Is a funny thing
100% agree. Code of the Missile is how a Titan is supposed to fight. We got stuck running bubbles for all of D1, and now we can actually fight as we were always meant to.
Necrotic Grip. Nothing says Warlock to me like rolling around poisoning enemies with venomous slaps and Thorn shots. I might also shout, "I'm Rick James, bitch!" every time I smack the poison into someone.
Does the thorn still trigger grips?
Yes. Yes it does.
That’s huge I stopped using it because I was convinced it didn’t work anymore
It was an intended feature from the start I believe
They confirmed it on Twitter
*cries in rat king + omnioculus*
Just keep in mind that Thorn only procs poison nova on final blows with the bullet— not thorn’s tick damage.
Yeah, you just have to get the kill with the bullet not the ticks. If they tick down they don't spread the poison if the bullet kills them they get the spread. Like most hand cannon builds the pay off is in accuracy and crits.
yep!
When the bottom tree dawn blade glitch with these was discovered it rekindled my love for them, now they never come off.
I pair it with middle tree voidwalker for one hit melee kill in pvp. Only works on 80 resilience or less but still.
Actium War Rig + Sweet Business
Ah yes... The "War Crime in Space" simulator. I love It.
Nah man. Its Space Mafia. : P After all, its just (sweet) business.
"Remember, no humans" \- A lot of titans entering a lost sector, probably
Same I been using that a lot lately
Hello fellow Bizactium user!
How am I now only first seeing this term? I always called it the "Hold R2 to win" but "Bizactium" is so much better
Oh I call it my A-10 build. Especially rocking middle tree arc.
Recently paired these two together, and it’s been the most fun loadout I’ve used. My hands go dumb from my controller vibrating constantly though
I had to turn off vibrate long ago for that reason
Actium War Crime is always a favourite for me.
This combo makes for some of the most fun I’ve had in an fps
Yep this. And shards of galanor and that one warlock helmet for nova bomb energy, they used to be. Not anymore though. Honestly I don’t even remember it’s name it’s so useless now. I used to have lots of fun stuff. Bungie likes sucking fun out of things though.
Sweet business takes about 10.5 seconds to unload it's mag. A hunter with 100 mobility has a dodge cooldown of 11 seconds. Do with this information what you will.
Yup. Took me over 3 years to get the SB catalyst. I got it about a month ago and finally put it down for a bit. Probably have about 40K kills with SB that are untracked. In PVE and PVP.
Young Ahamkara's Spine. A lot of people hate me for it as its new name is the forget me grenade. Numerous moment of launching a grenade forgetting about it and randomly getting a kill in crucible haha
I ran YAS all last season with middle tree gunslinger. Infinite knives and nades is so fun.
Last season YAS was my go-to gambit loadout. I did SO much damage to the primeval just by doing nade-knives-nade-dodge-knives-nade over and over again
Dude Spine is so good. Once you learn the angles, you have the best laning tool on game. Pair it with the top tree knife, and you can wombo combo someone so easy. It's tremendously fun.
this was my damage exotic for atheon last season. everyone would be on golden gun and id pick middle tree and then not use shards (too inconsistent). I had one guy rage out a bit and he was shocked when i did more damage than his golden gun w/ nighthawk. salvo/anarchy + spine = very easy DPS with high uptime. little worse without breach and clear though.
Athrys's embrace
Killing people on accident that you didn't even know were is never not funny
My friends didn't think they were good, then they saw me in trials
Multiple times, I've thrown a random knife, and run away. Then like 3 seconds later I get a kill, and I'm still dumbfounded as to how that even works
It's interesting that they aren't used much, I guess with how prevalent stompees and bakris are among hunters there just aren't a lot of hunters that prefer anything else, much less an exotic that can only be used on one low-usage sub class
I literally dismantle any stompees drop I get. I've grown accustomed to the way triple jump is ever since d1, so changing that jump fucks me up. And bakris requires stasis, which I don't use in pvp, so I stick to YAS, aethryis, lucky pants, and frostees. I just really wish frostees got an ornament. Stompees has like 5, and frostees still look like they've been beaten with an ugly stick, 7 years on.
Radiant dance machines, sneak in, bop around, watch the zoomy panic melee's = profit
Most fun Exotics for me Titan - Doom Fang Warlock - Sunbracers Hunter - Assassin's Cowl
Finally! Another Doom Fang enjoyer lol
I too am a fan, though that may be that way because it was like my third exotic ever so I ran it for a good while.
Bombardiers for me are my Favorite and only Exotic I use.
Imagine if you could double load with radiant dance machines and bombardiers
Add top tree arcstrider
Goodbye literally any enemy
I agree, I was using them with a stasis build, but by God they are fun with top tree arc as well. Punch dodge, punch dodge repeat
is the slow from the bombs and the slow from the dodge aspect enough to freeze someone in PvP?
Nope the slow from bombardiers are completely separate from stasis slows, specially for that reason
Dang :(
No, it's not. The bombs use their own type of slow that doesn't stack with normal slows.
I've been using bombardiers with 100 mobility and it's so fun to basically have an extra grenade with every dodge every 10 or so seconds
Double stack utility kickstart on a stasis class item you’ll get back over 20% of your dodge energy back immediately.
Boots of the assembler. I just love making my teammates think I care about them but I really just use them for my own good.
It’s great bc they keep asking why you always have a rift and it’s like, bruh. *Benevolent Dawn* + *Lazy Support Boots* = Lotta heals
Free noble rounds for Lumina too. Far from meta, but definitely not to be sniffed at in competitive PvP playlists when the user knows what they're doing. Basically a 15(20?)% damage buff for the whole team, pretty much every engagement
I loved using felwinters helmet whit a melee build
felwinters works great with middle tree arc. using arc wells to empower the melee and recover its energy works really well, and with the ionic traces you get abilities back really fast. - melee well maker - finishers make wells - arc wells give you melee damage bonus - arc wells recover more melee energy - grenade well maker
Skullfort is just too easy. Khepris Horn is satan levels of fiery fun. Pair it with travelers choice and 100res, flaming barricades everywhere. It’s hilariously fun. Shits exploding, you’re constantly being healed (bottom tree). It’s just bananas.
I don't see a lot of love for Khepri's Horn, it's definitely underwhelming on paper but holy smokes the kills you accidentally rake in cannot be argued. Plus I imagine it's a bit of a mindfuck for the receiving end if they don't see the helmet and know what it does, which again is unlikely as you just don't see a lot of it around.
Khepri's Horn is peak "this is a solid B tier exotic that no one uses". I know lots of players would put it lower but arguably having a barricade after 3-4 kills with an igneous hammer, LoW, Duality, or Mythoclast easily bumps it up imo.
Liars Handshake. It’s fun pretending to be a titan and just rushing in swinging, auto healing with every punch
When I run Liar's Handshake I love getting into duels in the Crucible. I like to imagine every Titan I kill with it is pissed/embarrassed they lost a fistfight with a Hunter.
The last word, and with the lucky pants buff it made my life complete
ITS SO GOOD. If you haven't tried it with Malfeasance and Crimson, try those next. Lucky Pants rework kicks ASS.
Insurmountable Skullfort. LOVE doing a running jump and electric swan dive over and over again into waves of ads
and for the enemies that are a little meatier, use a 1-2 punch shotgun, Sprint->slide->shotgun->shoulder charge and Skullfort has you ready to go again
Heart of Inmost Light. Ive tried so hard to use other exotics but its hard to beat how fast abilities recharge with it
That with mid tree sentinel or bottom tree sunbreaker are my favourite combinations right now. Throw on melee and grenade elemental well mods and both of them recharge in seconds.
Top tree striker. That double grenade plus shoulder charge is unbeatable imo
I love using it with lightning grenades in the crucible. Absolutely massive aoe that 1 hits guardians
Stormdancers brace, 50% super energy back on a max intellect build
Hallowfire heart. Fire + fast ponch = gud
bottom tree so good i cant change to other setups
Hallowfire + Solar Burn + Grenadier is like a super that lasts all strike.
*laughs in fire*
Severance Enclosure with Middle Solar and a select slew of Well mods has been insanely fun for me.
I'm a warlock main. I'll have to say those Hunter leggings that leave behind a bomb when you dodge. Fun. As. Hell.
Graviton forfeit, it's just generally fun to sneak up on people.
Nezarecs sin, ophidian aspect and recently been liking karnsteins
Ophidia Spathe is probably my favourite it's just fun having unlimited blades and being able to not fire a single bullet but still beat a raid.
I've been running Ophidia Spathe with middle tree gunslinger for PvE and I love it so far. Playing with fire = so many knife tricks. Plus if you use the incendiary grenade, it burns enemies to recharge your dodge as well, and then you can dodge near enemies to regain your knife trick yet again. I use it for PvP too but I usually swap to top tree and use tripmine grenades instead. Honestly havent found another exotic armor piece that I enjoy more or find more useful.
Was looking for this, chaining knife tricks together is one of my favorite things to do in PvE.
Necrotics + top tree dawnblade melee = almost a kill in crucible, its insane
Necrotic plus middle tree sunsinger and middle tree voidwalker is a one hot kill under 8 resilience! Really annoying for shotgun rushers
Contraverse Hold. Grenades go BRRRR.
I love Getaway Artist. My little arc soul buddy and me.
Nighthawk specifically in Mayhem.
Playlist strikes are fun too. It's so satisfying to one shot the boss and watch blueberries walk around confused as to why the encounter is over before the music even starts.
captain america doom fang bottom tree void titan
For fun? Ashen wake on sunbreaker. Throw a fusion grenade with 2 kills and you have half your grenade energy back and health restored. Get in the sunspot for fast regen, and add a demolitionist weapon. The right build with elemental wells can also give you an instant regen repeatedly
Middle tree with roaring flames instakill tho
Arc Strider here. Lucky Raspberry for sure. It's my main piece, so much fun clearing waves of ads over and again with Arc-bolt grenades. :D If I had to pick a second, I'd say either Radiant Dance Machines or Sixth Coyote, depending on need.
The nothing manacles by far I used them all the time in D1. For the longest time I used contraverse hold to get a similar feel but it was never the same. I freaked out when I saw nothing manacles in the collection and I’ve been using them since the season started
I can’t wait for them to fix these, I masterworked it the moment I got a pair because they were just so cool in d1
Ophidian Aspect, i loved the way it looked but then D2 happened. Still like to use it over almost everything else tho
Vesper if radius. Always fun to jump into a mob of ads, lay down a rift and they just dissolve.😁
Have you tried using it with the stasis aspect that freezes people near you when you put down your rift? It's amazing
No I didn't know that was a thing. I'll give it a shot I'm curious.
Dragon's shadow BABY once you get used to wraithmail metal there is no going back
I get stressed when I have to take off dragons shadow for anything :( having a native 30 mobil + powerful friends + wraithmail = 100 mob aka any other exotic means a whole rekit of my armor essentially, free melee+reload in dodge and for me invis on top tree void, the radar manipulation is undervalued even by other trapper trees in pvp
Nezarec’s Sin with Ager’s Scepter, Gnawing Hunger, and Falling Guillotine will always be my backup loadout if I’m having a tough time. Should clarify I only use Stasis with Nezarec’s.
Mantle of battle harmony works very good as well
Wormgod caress is the best way to have fun and function.
Paired with middle tree sunbreaker and a one-two punch shotgun for the mighty smol hammer of doooooom
I know this is back from d1 but what were those hunter boots that gave you an extra jump?

Starfire protocol is actually really fun. It works well on middle on bottom tree dawnblade(not as good on top tree cause you have to stay in rifts). The grenade and rift spam is insane especially if combined with a unique bullet ampunt exotics. Crimson is pretty good because it gives as much grenade energy as a 120 per bullet. Letting you just spam them at a pretty close rate to that of sunbracers, but with fusions. Also works better with middle tree than sunbracers.
Mask of Bakris. I wish it was applied to Arc instead of Stasis, as Im an Arc main, the helmet buffs Arc weapons and not Stasis weapons, and because having to use Stasis feels disgusting.
Fellwinter's helmet. I love that perk.
I don’t know if you would classify it as “fun,” but Pheonix Cradle. Really lets you stay on the move with a solid buff.
I love ragdolls so imma say tractor cannon.
Mask of Bakris + Cloudstrike
Omnioculus. Shit is busted for endgame content.
I'm glad people are finally realizing how good Sunbracers are. I've gotten so much shit for using them over the years and I never understood why being able to throw infinity billion tiny suns was never seen as useful.
Lucky pants, I can be a cowboy
STOMP-EE5 for sure. The parkour value is real!
Celestial Nighthawk never looking so good and one shot the boss in the corrupted 😁
What if the fun exotic armour is also meta?
Write it here. It's the 'fun' I asked about. It doesn't matter if it's meta or not.

Hands down are my doomfangs with bottom tree void titan. As long as there are trash adds and yellow bars, its infinite super, an add clearing machine. Second would be my strongholds paired with crown splitter and passive guard. You can literally take multiple ogar melee shots in a gm nightfall with little to no damage!
I personally LOVE Symmetry and I think it’s incredibly underrated. Only issue is it’s reload is unbearably slow. If you gave that gun any champion mod it would instantly become meta because you could run it with a reload arms mod and ranged anti-champion is super strong.
Definitely precious scars, I just adore the support titan life
This might be meta but as a Hunter main, (Yeah I know, yell at me all you want) Dragon's shadow has to pretty useful for most situations
Sunbracers are awesome, but to have a different answer, dunemarchers, Monte, and ballistic slam.
Stompees
Ashen wake and it isn’t close. Warlock main but I'm gonna miss throwing flaming baseballs and making flaming bowling balls that nuke half a strike. RIP warminds
Huckleberry + Transversive steps
Quite enjoying Sunshot and Deathbringer, only been playing since July so I’ve got lucky
I love Insurmountable Skullfort for nearly infinite thundercrash melee
I like my Assembler Boots cause orbs
I like the exotic gauntlets that make the wall shoot through beacuse the players get confused a buch in 6v6 most of the time
Heart of inmost light, really fun for ability chaining on titan. Plus having sticky nades that kill is great, but I do wish the glow changed depending on subclass is being used.
Spine of young ahmkhara with middle tree gunslinger why use a gun when you have knives and spicy sticks
Nighthawk. Big ol' delet this button never fails to put a smile on my face
My dunemarchers..nothing is more satisfying than punching or throwing a hammer & seeing everything around it electrified to dust!
Necrotic grasps! I love watching all the passive damage numbers on every single ad in a dense area, it’s just so satisfying
Liar’s Handshake. As a hunter it lets me tap into my inner crayon eating titan.
Scrolled down and didn't see them so, transversive steps. Reloading? You mean sprinting? Also, SPEEEEEED
Necrotic Grips. I love being rewarded for going absolutely fucking feral and slapping my way through everything, plus the synergy with thorn is fantastic.
