Have you ever thought to yourself, my build is absolutely carrying this fire team? Many guardians believe that, which is why we've started this series, Build Battles. You see, coming over to our Twitch channel and submitting your build, will immediately put you in a one-on-one with someone else who also submits their build.

And whether it's PvP or PvE, whether playing as a solo player or with a team, your builds will go head-to-head with others. You too will know. where your build stands and if you win you get 3 000 silver if you lose you get banned from my stream and the people who decide which build is the most potent is you welcome to build battles geomax real i mean this is interesting haven't used arbor listen forever but could be kind of good pulse eddie current jolte feedback i actually have that exact role all right all right we'll try it and see how this goes man geomag actually slaps yeah yeah i don't understand hold on do i not own a pair of geomax what the and you guys call me a warlock man dude i don't even own a pair of geomax do you need any more proof than that by geomax right here please be a good roll that's dick how did my geomax get deleted also dick you oh my god all right so no one is redeemed that's completely fine we're gonna go find a random squad this is really gonna put this build to the test everybody this is the build right here it's geo max it's completely arc we're also using an old exotic you haven't seen in ages arbalest as well as the two new legendary weapons right here for this season vantage point this one having eddie current and jolting feedback you're wondering why i haven't enhanced these you That's why this is my life right now. We're working on it.

I made some bad investments. We're also using this weapon right here. Bait and switch Envy is assassin. It could be better.

I wish I had a different mag perk, but we're getting there. All right, I'm readying up. Let's do this, man. Skazam, what's my gameplay loop? Shoot things, don't die.

I know. But what else? Throw grenades, pop my rift.

I have not watched Arcane. I've been waiting for Liam to get back this week. Okay, hold on, hold on, hold on. Oh my God.

Oh baby, okay, okay. Oh my god, dude. What in the world? Tell you what guys we're doing a shitty job Oh my god, oh my god dios are you gonna do this? Oh my lord All right I didn't know it was gonna finish it like that Chat didn't the Harblitz get like a like a nerf inside of PvE?

Like it doesn't do as much damage Got jolting feedback on this as well. Wow. Wow.

All right, feed me the moors, baby. Feed me There we go, there we go. Dude, we got three supers right now.

Oh my lord, I was not look we don't even have what it was the surge this week is what is it stasis and something else It's not even art. We're playing into art starvation though. That's the weekly modifier The super regeneration is wild stasis avoid is the surge this week.

Yeah. Yeah, right, right So we're not even dipping into that but we're dipping into art starvation though We're creating on it traces on them punch up and we're feeding into our super. That's why we just got three supers back-to-back Do look out and we have our abilities man i'm gonna be honest glad that when i first saw your bill submitted i thought just going completely arc isn't the way to go but i stand i stand corrected at least at least for that first initial area it's working well Oh, I'm a little weak right now.

Very nice guys. Very nice We're just making so many onyx races though, even if we do make a couple foolish mistakes, I think we should be okay If I just threw him down Not quite not quite he came out that he got unstunned a second ago Oh my god, I killed myself! Dude, I almost don't want to rock a GL anymore because of that.

It happens way too often. Oh sh- Dude, that guy just ate that f***ing super though. It seemed like he didn't do any damage.

Was I doing any damage? Crown of Tempest is better? Absolutely not.

Not for Chaos Reach. Tickle Fingers is better with Crown? Yeah, but Tickle Fingers is ass.

Tickle Fingers is worse than Chaos Reach. That's why we don't call it Tickle Fingers for no reason. I will say though, Sklasm, this is part of putting this build to the test though. It should be able to stand on its own. Right now, it doesn't really seem like it could do that.

It seems like it does okay, but definitely it's dependent on teammates. Alright, alright. Yes, yes. I'm feeling it now. I'm feeling it.

Yes. Yes. I swear I feel like I'm the only one that has that's the anti-barrier on Please don't drop in front of me. oh man that titan is carrying hard right now though good stuff brother all right so we could stay back here we should There we go. Excellent. Y'all are feeding orbs as well.

This is so good. That's so hot. So hot, dude. That super definitely been right there, which I didn't exactly set it up as good as it could have been set up. There it is baby, there it is.

There it is, hell yeah. I'm doing all right. I will say the Titanator team is doing a lot of like the heavy lifting with the big damage, you know.

Nice. There we go. Oh my god.

That scorn is definitely trying to corrupt the submind and using some weird interface to copy out files. Why have we not done a review on this thing yet? I suspect the witnesses treating this scorn as a living archive are being important information to its mind.

That blind right there. Look at this. Look at this.

Just eating him. Eating him. God, come on, come on. Oh, brother. I'm rocking a GL out here.

It does so much damage So much damage God that's embarrassing. I know it's not the surge, but good lord And I almost got killed in that. That's the other thing If anybody's putting these things in there, I'll go put it in. Here's the thing, like, I'm getting my abilities back so fast. It's just, everything I do, though, feels like it just lightly tips the enemy, you know?

did my grenade launcher get shot while i was shooting did my grenade no no no no did my grenade i didn't even i didn't even hit the we're gonna have to go back and look at the tape on that one all right i'm gonna i'm gonna i'm gonna finish them off with my super right now here we go baby Wait, hold on. Where did he go? There we go. Oh, f***, dude. There we go.

There it is. Alright, we actually cooked in the boss room, though. 15-minute run, not bad, not bad. Alright, let's take a look here. Alright, we had the highest score, but let me just say this, guys.

I felt like I was getting hard carried by this Titan. And he's rocking double prime. up timers we definitely like have the higher score but he had substantially higher kill count and i felt like he was doing the chunkier damage like anytime like i ran into something where i needed to kill fast i felt like i just wasn't doing enough damage here's the thing i do believe like the arc regeneration is is really really nice i like that a lot it's just because we don't have an arc surge going on this week we are satisfying art starvation everything just seems like it's just tickling The two standout things from this build so far for me was actually these two weapons.

This Vanish Point with Jolting Feedback. Eddie Kern. I don't even have it in hands.

Really, really good. And this Bane Switch. Envious Arsenal.

Bittersweet. Very, very nice. I was liking it.

I was enjoying this, man. I was enjoying this a lot. These two weapons are really, really good. We need to review them.

Oh, wow. This is an interesting build. Cold Heart. This is a build we're considering.

It's Roger's Harness and Cold Heart. I mean, it is Roger's Harness. I'm just surprised to see Cold Heart here.

believe me you can run this build solo you'll mainly use it in the second room or more all right you've won me over i'm game let's do it roger's harness is bugged like a good bug or a bad bug like inconsistent what's the stat distribution 100 discipline 100 resilience all right and let that refresh and then i'll pull it back up any build with a unique exotic that isn't meta is such an interesting build to me i also like cold hard i haven't used cold hard in ages though it's been a long time but i mean it does have like intrinsic Target lock. I mean, it actually does good damage. Now, we don't have anything boosting it.

Let me ask you something, family. Would you rather me do Hung Jury or Randy? I personally think Randy's way better. Randy is the better scout rifle for PvE for barrier champions with under over and kinetic trimmers, but I can also do Hung Jury.

I have a kinetic trimmer roll. I've got this roll right here we can roll with. You want me to rock Windigo? Interesting.

Here, here. I even got a 2010 upgrade for it. Look at that. Boom. Boom.

All right. That moves. If there's anything I'm missing, let me know.

Turkey with the stuff. Thank you. Thank you.

Switch out kinetic reserves mod for the arc or solar resist mod. Okay. Everything else looking good to you though, huh? Here's the thing.

Why not Tempest Strike? I feel like... Leave the... current is just so weak you could do it mainly in the close quarter and uptime okay family i'm gonna bag us out and put on tempest strike bam is this is this is this a change you think we should make i personally think just base melee is just you know if we were rocking something like we're on prismatic maybe something different but temp tempest strike literally applies jolt i just feel like it plays into this better it's hard because you won't get that close but you can switch i rock either what do you mean i won't get that close lethal current i'm having to get even closer do you want flow state tempest strike or lethal current tempest strike which one would you prefer flow plus tempest strike okay by the way again i just want to i want everyone to understand like how modifiers work now you've got arc hunger which if you deal arc damage it makes your abilities come back very very fast but notice that you have stasis search and void search these modifiers really boil down to is that prismatic is really good with this because take our getaway artist build we consume our grenade we've got arc soul that's doing arc damage we've got ergo some with it it's satisfying our hunger in the process though it's making all of our abilities come back extremely fast and we're also able to dip into that search but keep in mind like coldheart is not getting any buffs This seems to be flowing much better.

Oh my god. But right there, Roger's Horn is in a big prog comp. I think I'm melting my cold heart. I, like, can I just say, can I just say, I felt so much better with that melee.

Like, I felt so much, I felt like that right there allowed me to play into the weapon more. Like, play into, like... the different aspects and and i i could safely apply the melee and we got the extra joke damage in there too Taking advantage of the tonic, getting the blind off.

Oh, arc hunger still not satisfying. Wow, man. Hunger.

I just, I feel like this flows a lot better. Still not done yet, like still still getting our starvation built up. I still not built up yet.

That's crazy Damn dude, I had no stuns on that. I got no regeneration on that, no orbs, no nothing. That's a shame dude.

Thank you. Thank you. okay what i will say is that it's very interactive like i feel like i'm always pressing some input of some sort we'll see how it handles the boss room yeah i'm gonna control this area that flashbang grenades are so good here no he said he would go between the two Hmm. We'll see.

We'll see how an animus balls room. There we go. Good stuff, guys. Not that that's gonna do anything.

Oh, I love that it still stays with him. I love that the stab is still with him. That's amazing.

I keep shooting a projectile. Like I wasn't that close. I shot a projectile or they shot my shit.

That's crazy dude Got that battery Got one more There was two of them? Wow. Isn't that something? Got the blind going off.

How do we feel about this, guys? What are y'all's thoughts? The build definitely got a lot better to me with the change. We definitely got a lot more kills. But the change there that we made to the melee, FanMail, of course, said that that was the option.

He said there was a swap off between the two melees. If you wanted to go combination blow, you can. Or if you wanted to do the other one, you could too. That build was ass. I actually think the build was good.

I see problems with both builds. You know, here's the thing. Geomag's chaos reach is not the strongest thing either. You know what I mean? Roger's Harness, as y'all pointed out, has some inconsistencies.

I'm also being told the way to work around this is to just be close to the target. So with the update in Revenant, Roger's Harness was fully reworked. It's perk right here, Mobius Conduit.

It states that activating Gathering Storm calls down lightning and all nearby targets, jolting them while also amplifying allies. Defeating arc-debuffed targets grants a small amount of Gathering Storm energy. And you can see where this plays into... what we're doing here especially with tempest uh strike doing the jolt we've got you know all these different arc artifact mods that are that are right here rapid precision hits or rapid final blows and targets affected by jolting blind will generate onyx traces and picking up onyx traces grants an armor charge rapid arc weapon precision hits consuming armor charge to blind the targets we're leaning into The Coldheart, which essentially has like intrinsic target lock, if you will.

So we're blinding as well. Dude, for us not having like Arc Surge, this is doing much better than I expected. I thought we were going to be hurting there, not having an Arc Surge. I mean, Arc Starvation is the main weekly mod. I tell you what's going to shake things up more than anything is really the Roaming Supers next week.

That right there is going to shake things up a bunch. But we do need to do a bet. Guys, based on what you've been seeing, what do you think is the best? This Hunter build with Roger's Harness? or chaos reach wow 73 say the warlock is the winner okay person who did get the win today it was scholasm with the dub gg scholasm uh we'll get you the the silver fam i'm sorry brother we must issue thy ban i hate to be that guy you know i don't enjoy this right yeah slap that like button like your mama told you right
