Best Weapons for Warlocks in Destiny 2: The Final Shape

PvE Favorites: Necrotic Grip with Osteo Striga, Sunbracers with Monte Carlo [2:5][2:1]
Fun Builds: Fighting Lion and Nezarec's Sin, Prometheus Lens/Jotunn [5:6][5:1]
Versatile Choices: Crown of Tempests with Stormcaller, Void weapons for Nezarec's Sin [5:2][5:3]

Top PvE Weapon Choices

For PvE, the combination of Necrotic Grip and Osteo Striga is highly recommended. This setup is praised for its effectiveness in clearing enemies quickly and efficiently [2:5]. Another powerful build involves using Sunbracers paired with Monte Carlo, which allows for high grenade uptime and makes you feel like a raid boss [2:1].

Fun and Unique Builds

Some players prefer to focus on fun rather than strictly meta builds. The Fighting Lion combined with Nezarec's Sin offers a unique playstyle that many find enjoyable [5:6]. Similarly, Prometheus Lens or Jotunn can provide an entertaining experience, especially if you're not concerned with high-end team activities [5:1].

Versatile Weapon Options

Warlocks have versatile weapon options that complement their abilities well. For instance, Stormcaller paired with Crown of Tempests is a popular choice due to its synergy and ability to maintain super energy [5:2]. Additionally, saving Void weapons for when Nezarec's Sin becomes available can be a strategic move, as it offers a simple yet effective gameplay style [5:3].

Community Recommendations

While some players suggest sticking to meta builds, others emphasize the importance of playing with weapons you enjoy. Whether it's experimenting with demolitionist perks [5:5] or running top tree dawn with Martyr's Retribution for ad clearing [5:4], the key takeaway is to have fun and tailor your loadout to your personal preferences.

Geomags with delicate/Cold Heart. Slidemelee lock for efficiency, but also sooo boring

But please also try Barrow Dyad with Swarmers and full strand artifact. With Weavewalk and rift aspect + grapple.

Or maitidoxia with Mindspun and wanderer on a shackle grenade.

Or go for fun with Briarbinds full void artifact and Lemonarch

Definitely not meta, but I'm having so much fun running a Vampiric Melee build w/ glaives, mostly using the Enigma. It's SO much fun. As long as there are enemies to kill/eat, it's hard to die.

Sorurus · 3 months ago

Try using Geomags with Microcosm instead. Combined with the artifact perk that grants bonus damage to traces against enemies debuffed with a matching element, Microcosm deals 20% increased damage to ANY debuffed target. Plus, since Chaos Reach jolts, you’re guaranteed to get that bonus.

Warlock you want the new stasis arm exotics, there is an insane build that I used for the day one raid with it, to level stuff.

Sunbracers are also insane pair it with high strength stats, monte carlo and ashes to assets and your a raid boss basically lol.

I love making builds so if you want I can send you some insane stuff :) but that is by top two for Warlock, day one raid tested :)

Discussion - What’s your IB Chase?

Posted by WFJohnRage · in r/CrucibleGuidebook · 6 months ago

Having pretty much gotten every IB weapon roll I wanted over the past season/episodes. I was just curious what everyone else is grinding. Any off meta or “sleeper” rolls that don’t get a lot of discussion? I figured it could help players with a ton of engrams that have already gotten there 5/5s in the final shape.

I’m personally looking for a strategist / slice Guiding Sight. Main reasons that I play warlock and the rift cool down is a bit longer than most other classes and the second reason was that I was absolutely getting my butt handed to me a few weeks ago by a player using it in comp. I felt like I was “severed” the entire match.

[Fluted/accurised/slideways/adagio/range MW] Crimil’s

Slepprock · 6 months ago

I feel stupid. I got a slide/adagio crimils a few days ago and broke up down because I thought adagio sounded stupid on a 120 HC. I thought everyone was going for a precision instrument one.

1 upvotes on reddit

detonater700 · 6 months ago

PI is also a popular choice, adagio is just better imo on 120s however since it turns it into a 2 tap (does the perfect amount of damage where it just about doesn’t break shield on the first hit too so people often don’t realise the next shot will kill). Even ignoring the 2 taps, for team shot purposes doing 120dmg on a crit with a HC is insane. It also allows you to headshot melee for a fast CQC kill. The snowball potential is just crazy too, it lasts for 9seconds enhanced IIRC. It can be helpful especially when you’re trying to do a bit of a carry when paired with OEM for example, winning a duel can give you a 2 tap + over shield which makes the next fight (even if it’s peek shooting against 2 people) quite winnable indeed.

I'd generally start with Weapons from Onslaught if I were starting out.

Lots of great stuff from that loot pool and it's currently focusable at Zavala.

Dares of Eternity has some solid weapons as well.

A good roll of anything in either of those activities will still work pretty well.

Sarevok's Sword is good for survivability/tankiness but of course piercing weapons like Duelist Prerogative are mega-damage if you wear the Bhaalist Armor.

Alternative mega-damage is Shadow Blade with Resonance Stone.

1 upvotes on reddit

Real_Rush_4538 · 5 months ago

If not using the Shadow Blade, your best bet is to combine the Bhaalist Armor with Great Weapon Master. Any piercing 2h weapon works; as much as some people may insist Shar's Spear is mandatory, you can get away with any Spear, Pike, or Trident you like - a huge chunk of your damage per swing is the 20 piercing damage from the aura+feat combo.

4 upvotes on reddit

haplok · 5 months ago

I really liked Bladelock multiclass with Sword Bard for Slashing Fluorishes.

For this multiclass, pikes, like the Breaching Pikestaff, were absolutely the best choice, as their reach would allow to reliably "skewer" through 2 enemies (one in front, the other further back) with each strike.

Far more reliable then trying to hit 2 enemies standing nearby.

1 upvotes on reddit

Real_Rush_4538 · 5 months ago

That's an excellent note. I'll add on to this: It's entirely viable to take this route with a Half-Elf or Human Swords Bard in the early game, since Civil Militia gives Pike proficiency and the Unseen Menace from the Creche is the best Pike for a huge chunk of the game (due to its built in advantage, it doesn't really get upstaged until you're paralyzing entire rooms for auto crit, or at all if you aren't).

Final Shape, what weapons should I be using?

Posted by RedHawwk · in r/DestinyTheGame · 1 year ago

Returning player, I got the Still Hunt on hunter with celestial hawk but for everything else I just have no clue what to use. Every time I come back I go through this struggle, the amount of weapons and methods to acquire them is just totally overwhelming.

I typically just use whatever legendary primary and heavy I have picked up. Anytime I look up videos on best weapons or highest dps they’re all exotics.

What are a handful of good legendaries I should focus on getting? Anything from the arena breach? Or even exotics, are there any must haves?

My list is not exhaustive, but rather covers the vast majority of situations and necessary components of loadouts. There are some weapons which are side-grades or work for specific strategies not listed below. (Ex. Cataphract is a sidegrade to edge transit, but strand). Here’s my list:

Rocket sidearms The Call - TFS destination Indebted Kindness - warlords ruin dungeon

Auto Rifles Khvostov - TFS quest (also has an exotic version) Rufus’ fury - Root Of Nightmares raid No Hesitation - TFS destination

Hand cannons Midnight Coup - onslaught Fatebringer - vault of glass raid Zaouli’s bane - kings fall raid Sun shot - exotic Malfeasance - exotic Wardens law - nightfalls (only needed if you’re a hunter) Ace of spades - exotic Thorn - exotic

Pulse rifles Blast furnace - onslaught Nullify - Salvation’s edge raid Outbreak perfected - exotic (zero hour mission)

SMGs Riskrunner - exotic Calus mini tool - season of the haunted/ banshee Submission - vow of the disciple raid

Sidearms Forerunner - exotic Drang - season of the haunted/ banshee

Scout rifles Hung Jury - onslaught

Bow Trinity ghoul - exotic No denouement - salvations edge raid Leviathans breath - exotic

Sniper rifles Supremacy - last wish raid Succession - deep stone crypt raid Izanagis burden - exotic Still hunt - TFS quest exotic Whisper of the worm - exotic (whisper mission)

Shotguns Heritage - deep stone crypt raid Conditional finality - root of nightmares exotic Ikelos SG - season do the seraph / banshee Tractor cannon - exotic

Trace rifles Agers Scepter - exotic Appetence - season of the wish / banshee Acasias deception - root of nightmares raid

Fusion rifles Riptide - crucible Cartesian coordinate - world drop/ banshee Bastion - exotic

Swords Ergo sum - exotic sword from TFS The other half - eager edge sword from 30th anniversary pack Falling guillotine - onslaught Lament - beyond light exotic

Grenade launchers Mountaintop - onslaught Forbearance - onslaught/ vow of the disciple raid Witherhoard - exotic Edge transit - onslaught

Machine guns Commemoration - deep stone crypt raid Xenophage - shadowkeep dungeon exotic THUNDERLORD - exotic

Linear fusion rifles Euphony - Salvation’s edge exotic Briars contempt - root of nightmares raid Cataclysmic - vow of the disciple raid Arbalest - exotic

Rocket launcher Apex predator - last wish raid Gjallarhorn - 30th anniversary

Hope this helps.

No prob. If you’re looking for general loot, my suggestion is to start with onslaught as there’s a lot of good loot there. Then move onto TFS destination weapons. Then try and get some raid weapons. Deep Stone Crypt and Root of Nightmares are the easiest raids to do and both have plenty of good loot. Then go for the Vow and Salvation’s Edge when you’ve got a bigger arsenal.

Rockets are right now really good. I would recommend in the long run trying to get an apex predator with reconstruction bait and switch. In the mean time you can grab an Ascendancy from the exotic kiosk (it's legendary). Use impulse amplifier explosive light. It's good enough for most things.

For granade launcher and sword (because in some cases they are preferred) I would just do some onslaught and try get an edge transit and a falling guillotine. They drop often. Just try get bait and switch on the edge transit.

Apex is awesome but yes it takes a bit of getting. Excellent and easily attainable is the Marsilion-C bought from Banshee. I personally prefer:

Quick launch

Mini frags (augmented drum is good too)

Envious Assassin

Impulse Amplifier

Backup mag

With the right setup you can put out a stupid 32 grenades (I put on double solar reserves) in less than 15 seconds!

Cataphract GL3 is also a solid choice. And can roll with envious/bait and switch. It’s a Trials weapon though so it’s less easy to get a good roll, unless trials are your thing.

1 upvotes on reddit

Goose-Suit · 1 year ago

You can also go explosive light or cascade point instead of impulse amplifier. I think it’s 8 shots that can be fired off when cascade point I activated? Strong option to run the still hunt combo if you don’t have Apex Predator unlocked.

Best weapons for warlocks in Destiny 2: The Final Shape

Key Considerations for Warlock Weapons in Destiny 2: The Final Shape

Weapon Types: Warlocks benefit from a mix of weapon types. Consider using:
- Pulse Rifles: Great for mid-range engagements.
- Fusion Rifles: Effective for close to mid-range combat.
- Sniper Rifles: Ideal for long-range precision shots.
Subclass Synergy: Choose weapons that complement your subclass abilities. For example:
- Void Warlocks: Weapons with Void damage can enhance synergy with abilities like Devour.
- Solar Warlocks: Weapons that deal Solar damage can benefit from the Radiant buff.
Exotic Weapons: Some Exotics are particularly strong for Warlocks:
- The Witherhoard: Great for area denial and damage over time.
- The Bastion: A powerful fusion rifle that can deal with multiple enemies effectively.
- The Traveler's Chosen: Excellent for sustaining your abilities and providing healing.
Perks and Mods: Look for weapons with perks that enhance your playstyle:
- Rampage or Kill Clip: For increased damage after kills.
- Demolitionist: To help with grenade energy regeneration.
- Vorpal Weapon: For increased damage against bosses and champions.
Loadout Balance: Ensure your loadout includes a mix of primary, special, and heavy weapons to handle various combat scenarios.

Recommendation: A solid loadout for Warlocks in The Final Shape could include:

Primary: A high-impact Pulse Rifle like the No Time to Explain.
Special: The Witherhoard for area control.
Heavy: A Sniper Rifle like Succession or a Rocket Launcher with Cluster Bombs for boss damage.

This combination allows for versatility in both PvE and PvP scenarios, maximizing your effectiveness as a Warlock.
