This build is a lot of fun, but a couple of things to note. First up, I had a few comments telling me you can skip the first Champion and still get Platinum reward. It didn't seem to work here, maybe it only applies to Master or something. Secondly, I shot like 2 Riskrunner bullets coming out of a super. It didn't change anything about the run, but it was so negligible that I didn't bother resetting. Lastly, Hammers are currently bugged and throwing way slower than they should be able to. It hurts the build a lot with how it feels and annoyances when dealing with Champions, but it stil works for now. As for the build itself, there's 2-3 different exotics you can pair with this and make it work very wekk. The first being Dunemarchers as you see here, which works extremely well for large clusters and add clear, but kind of sucks for single target damage. You could make up for that with having a One-Two Punch Shotgun paired with this, and you'd have the best of both worlds. But as I was sticking with Hammers only, I just opted for the lack of single target instead. Hence why I also needed to use the Hammer Super to deal with some of the Barrier Champions, as the Barrier Servitors are very inconsistent to handle without that (and the Spider Tank would be much slower than it already was). Otherwise you can use Synthoceps of Wormgod's Caress, both of which work very well. Basically a passive 3x buff from Synthoceps which is more than enough to one shot most enemies. Wormgod's would work if you don't mind keeping up the 5 stack buff, and you want even more damage single target damage. The rest of the build is shown at the start, basically everything combined keeps you constantly healing and surviving everything thrown at you. It's also viable on Master if you have a little bit higher power, but for now the Barrier Champions are a problem if you want to stick with Hammers only. One-Two Punch would make the difference on that though.
can you please make a solo 100k nightfall for new players useing wepons and exotics that can be optained with most of new players -with normal armor stats
I think his greatest strength is his patience. I can't imagine doing this and not flipping my table after missing my first hammer throw and having to pick it up on the other side of the map.
Hahaha! Eso, you are really an insane freak :D Every time when I think, ok, I know this game, you come around the corner and show me how diverse this game can be. And how skilled you are. Thank you for doing that for the D2 community, and please keep it up!

@@kylehoffman7396 Been trying to do master and the dude teleported into my face so I ate my own rocket. I wouldn't have finished it in time anyway but losing 15s to that isn't fun
@@pluto3194 I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been yeeted into the ceiling because he just teleported from one end to the next and I couldn’t react fast enough to jump back up.
@@kylehoffman7396 Yeah I've seen it do some pretty weird teleports, though I haven't put enough runs into it to see some really crazy stuff. Seen him just from the opposite end of the room to behind me and just give me a lil smack twice now though. Very annoying losing time to stuff like that especially when I'm already coming into the fight low on time
Esoterickk you're just built different. Your gameplay is always top notch and I love the builds you showcase. I can't say I've done any only hammers runs but I've definitely incorporated the throwing hammer more after seeing what you've done with it. I think my favorite iteration is still Synthoceps or Wormgod though. Dunemarchers seem to be fantastic for add clear but you're missing out on a ton of damage with Champions and bosses. Doesn't mean I'm not gonna give Dunes a try lol! Thank you for the sublimely entertaining gameplay yet again.
I have been loving Dunemarchers and tiny hammers. So much carnage and I had no idea they were bugged, Gonna be so OP when fixed. They do seem slow now I watch this back. Weird how things seem normal unless you are shown otherwise...
On the note of hammers being thrown slower. This isn't a bug, this was an intended change they made at the start of the Season when buffing the hammer in PvE (I guess to balance it out?) The problem is that it was such a dumb unnecessary idea that it *feels* like it's a bug. But ya it was in the patch notes at the beginning of the Season and everything, something to the effect of "added a 0.5 second cooldown between hammer throws". That said I wouldn't be surprised if Bungie already forgot about this and treats it as a bug that needs to be fixed (which would be for the best tbh).
Phenomenal work this by far my favorite strike/nightfall the most fun ever had was running this back to back. especially with my Vex mythoclass an particle deconstruction especially melt. Overload an Barrier champions EZ couple hits with fusion an debuff.
been a hammer throwing titan for a long time...but got burnt out on titan and have been on warlock last season and this one....but i do miss my hammers..with severance enclosure on the chest the explosions from hammers was just ridiculous ad clear and war mind cell goodness...not sure what the potential there is with the changes...but with the new mods im sure there is some carnage to be had there..hollow fire heart and severance were my go to's since i dont think i ever got any dunes...going to have to jump back on titan and level it up realy quick this season and get my hammer on....wish there was a stat tracker for how many enemies killed with the hammer...if there was i am not even sure how many enemies i have killed with a hammer..but it's allot....your a beast bro...be well brother.
I am slightly confused, where did you get space for a 13th artifact mod? You have all the champ mods(6), fusion reloader(7), hands-on(8), passive guard(9), Withering Heat(10), thermoclastic strike(11), thermoclastic blooming(12), and particle deconstruction(13). Isn't 12 max, I can't get anymore mods. Or did they update it to get 13?
I love this build 👏💯💯 I'm definitely going to give it a try. Something I saw Ehroar mentioned was bottom tree dawn with fellwinter's helm which I really want to try out with this NF oppressive darkness but on solar + chain reaction + overload grenades because all the solar burning now counts as a powered melee. What weapons would you pair with that build for this NF ?
It's a lot of fun! I haven't seen his build, but depends on what you need overall for the strike. Most likely for solo I'd still want a bow for the ranged parts needed, Le Monarque or Ticuu's both are good. As for other weapons just depends on what you need to be doing, ie if you need anti-barrier or not, or something void to deal with the annoying shields on the boss, or something arc for the captains. Linear Fusion would pair well for overall damage
Smart. Incredible movement skills and reflexes - I am way to old for this shit. By the way: Since when do those protective mini-servitors come down to the ground?
I did not realize dunemarchers worked with little hammer. I mean it makes perfect sense but in my mind that is a projectile and not a melee. I have to try this in PvP now.
All right guardian you’re all set to take on the devils lair. What guns will you be taking? I take hammer. Ok yes, but what guns will you also be using? Hammer No no, g-u-n-s, you know the boom booms Hammer (Is this guy dense?) Sir, what bang bangs will you be shoot shoots with? Hammer Oh geez, ok hope your ghost is up to the task He on vacation ……….um…………
@@itzme2252 charged vs uncharged melee? I must be slow, I was only able to change the button, not weather or not it throws or just swings a punch. I have been unable to throw the hammer if the enemy is right in my face, only punching, which doesn't proc health gen or damage buff.
Imagine seeing this as the Fallen. Imagine getting reports of one single Guardian storming your base. Imagine those reports ending with one feed after another going dark as he goes through each area killing everyone and everything. Imagine those reports also saying that said Guardian is not using any weapons, but only his hammer. Why does he do that? Cause he has fought so many wars, he died so many times, he has used so many combinations of weapons, abilities and tactics, that he has grown so bored and numb that something like this seems like the only way he can feel any sort of rush anymore...
Until bungo nerfs dunemarchers, Im not taking them off my titans. Shit like this is why I'm pairing it with middle tree hammer especially with the hammer buff
Next time you do this can you please do me a huge favor? Please put in a hilarious sound effect for every time you bonk something with your hammer hahahaha that would be epic
Could you do a hammer and nade run? Using ashen wake. It might be easier and fun for you to play and i am ngl i wanna see you oneshot things with it lol

Hitting the robot in the nuts... is the best part.
This build is so sick
I thought bungie seriously nerf how fast you can throw the hammer but good thing to know it isnt.
can you please make a solo 100k nightfall for new players useing wepons and exotics that can be optained with most of new players -with normal armor stats
The name of the build is "feet don't fail me now".
The Vanguard: We have a situation.
Esoterickk: Pass me my hammer.
I'm getting me mallet
I think his greatest strength is his patience. I can't imagine doing this and not flipping my table after missing my first hammer throw and having to pick it up on the other side of the map.
This guy is doing no hit melee only bloodborne runs in his free time... and then comes back to destiny to embarrass these bots. I fear this man
You finished both of the Brigs with Hammer Nutshot … and thats impressive 😮💨
Looking forward to Eso soloing Savathun blindfolded with no limbs.
The fact that you took the time to complete this nightfall solos with only a hammer shows true mastery of the game.
The entertainment value of this video and the commitment to his hammer is UNmatched!!

I love he took every nightfall with a tiny hammer
The instantly disappearing enemies really need to be dealt with. We get that some mobs have a teleport but c’mon Bungo.

Love seeing titan builds in these videos 🔥
Those hammers hit harder than my Sleeper Simulant.
At this point, every video of eso soloing a GM nightfall or doing some insane challenge like this one is just a way for him to flex his power

My team: I'm arc subclass! We don't need arc weapon!
Also my team: Can't shoot arc shields even if they have arc weapon.

They are bugged?
What are rhey doing?
Awesome as always! I love how Everytime you lost your hammer you put yourself in timeout in the corner lol jk, great run!!!
Finally, a true Titan.
watching those shank's xplosion chaining is satisfying
the synergy of the build is insane
Savathun when our guardian runs up with nothing but a riskrunner and a glowing solar hammer
When everyone thinks the bar can't be set any higher, he proves them all wrong lol.

That was pure madness!
Barney's movie had heart, but hammer to the groin had a hammer to the groin.
That servitor at 14:21 is like RNG whenever I want something
This build is actually really fun even in casual gameplay (strikes, gambit, etc.)
5:04 glad its not just me who cant hit ranged melee's from 2 ft away
The feeling when you throw your hammer and it goes off map 🤬🤦🏻♂️😭

Turns out Thor was a titan ...
May I ask why your Wayfinder’s compass available slot is -1?and you have one more skill enabled than my compass. Thanks
Holy shit dude so many closed calls I would have gone crazy
The entire premise of this video is hammer go bonk
This build is for when you wanted to play an Avengers game, but you only have Destiny.
Slightly off topic, but I notice you're at -1 Available unlocks on your relic.. how'd you do that? is it a seasonal reward on the way to 100?
How do you have 13 modes unlocked on your wayfinder compas and be -1?
Eso how good would u argue frenzy and rapid hit is on threaded needle? I had no idea it could even roll with that
How did you chain the arc when u kill the enemy with your hammer. I dont see you shot your riskrunner that time
Smart. Incredible movement skills and reflexes - I am way to old for this shit. By the way: Since when do those protective mini-servitors come down to the ground?
Hi the strike Intro text is covering a few of your armor mods, is there a list you could compile?
Should be able to see all of the mods that are covered by the text in the second box that appears to the left with the extra details of them
I did not realize dunemarchers worked with little hammer. I mean it makes perfect sense but in my mind that is a projectile and not a melee. I have to try this in PvP now.
Notice that Eso, changed the name to Guardian and yes, he is The Guardian.
"i Will bonk them all"

Good ol hammer of thor build. Elemental wells make it so much more resilient!
I think Esoterickks Titan was an carpenter in his previous life.
Looks like fun!!!
i thought they fixed hammer throw speed to match regular melee, then nerfed by 25%? i forget
23:28 A bit disappointed you didn't slam.
Really fun to watch 👍👍👍
A lot of fun to play with
Wow! Always knew where spawns were.
Wait so i didnt know RR would proc off of melee like that? is that with any class or spec? thats awesome
I don't know why but I got a huge kick out of you missing and having to go fetch the hammer lol

9:00 lmao 🤣🤣
You sir, are ridiculous...🙇♂️
