Legend of Acrius is Now a DPS MONSTER
they are definitely gonna make a void shotgun that can roll with repulsor brace in the left column and discord in the right column
Why?
@@soulofseph9680just for no backup plans
The RoN shotty
Repulsor destabilizing on RoN shotty is perfect for no backup plans
Tell me you don't raid without telling me that you don't raid 😂
I do have to say, I like the balance of different weapon archetypes for what they're meant for. Each of them have their respective place, and don't outshine the others in their respective places 100% of the time.
Well, that's just untrue. There are a lot of weapons that dominate over everything else in the game to the point that using anything else, regardless of archetype, is an actual detriment to your character. Regnant will perform very similarly to Acrius (probably better because of range), it isn't an exotic, it's void (so it plays into the build he's showing), it doesn't need an exotic to boost it's damage, and it's craftable for enhanced perks. There isn't a single situation where you wouldn't use Regnant, honestly.
@@williameldridge9382 First off, you need to re-read my second sentence.
Second, you really have an elitist way of thinking if you honestly believe that. Jesus Christ. "Using anything else is a detriment to your character." Really bro? It's not that serious.
@@williameldridge9382 Really? you're gonna use Regnant for Ecthar? The best 4th column trait for damage also maxes your blast radius, you're either gonna have to be apart from your team in your own rift, or have one teammate taking aggro so you can do ranged damage. GLs are not good for every scenario, and Regnant gets shat on by rockets.
@@moldytaters4190 certain weapon archetypes are objectively worse than others, thats not to say you cant perform with them but to claim the game is in absolute balance (then to get heated when someone disagrees) is ridiculous
@@DaisyBallz I never claimed ABSOLUTE balance. You should re-read what I said.
Balance of choices, not the game.
I also didn't get heated? Don't know where you're going with that.
i saw the no backup plans update in the twab way back, i knew i was gonna use them for sure, this season ive been using nothing but no backup plans with 3 shotguns, mixed with a bastion + Offensive Bulwark void build that can weaken, suppress and annihilate. its definitely the most fun build ive played lately
this weapon destroys the tutorial lost sector
Nessas Oblation is a void slug that’s beastly if you have the crafted one. The current strand shotgun is what I am using with Acrius and then the strand arc siphon. Makes the middle shotgun or whatever more optional. My build uses one charged up on the chest and special finisher. That way you can put arc loader on your gloves for Acrius too. I’m doing less damage though as I use absolutionX2 for much faster abilities. Like my weakening grenades but I’m discipline low.
Using voltshot gunnora's axe with the NBP damage buff seems like pretty strong ad clear as well, but I had no idea Discord actually refunded ammo, that's crazy.
You really should consider switching your test subject to a boss instead of Carl (a major), just so any tuning quirks don't skew the numbers for DPS weapons.
Would love to see the dps for all shot guns archetypes, plus swap combos with back up plans
Just swap your crafted heritage and nessa shotgun. Slug shotguns hit the hardest. Nessa is the strongest legendary w vorpal and reconstruction
@@DaBurrs7 what about duality? With max black wings
@Glizzy Lord takes up the exotic slot + getting that perk to proc isnt worth it (even if the damage is insane) fyi.
@@ChaosAtlantis33 I mean taking up an exotic slot isn’t an issue. More so when one of the best pairing weapons is a legendary rocket. I just want damage numbers, doesn’t have to be meta. 💀 idk why you going off like that.
Example Izzy takes up the exotic slot. As a primary but helps w having some of the best damage in rotation
@@Black2overlord "idk why you going off like that." ??????????????????
I never realized how similar the firing sounds of sleeper and acrius were until this vid 😅
Before the rework and back when Void 3.0 came out, I fell in love with using the Comedian with Subsistence with No Backup Plans + Volatile Rounds.
Remade the build this season and it’s super fun still, but it’s not as good as before because of the lose of some mods with the buildcrafting rework that helped keep ammo up, but it can still work you just need to use the special finisher mod. I still miss a lot of the mods we lost tho.
If Comedian returns with Discord or any void shotgun comes out with it, it’ll fun to incorporate to this!
I am SO glad Acrius is so good now, same for Levi Breath. Both have been not great in the past but recently have been buffed to be incredible at their roles. Levi is king at destroying Champs and Acrius feels like a SHOTGUN that will clap anything up close
Probably because acrius is a shotgun
Since being back on Titan this season, does anyone else feel nostalgic for the old Ogre damage test boss?
Thank you for making this video. I asked for it specifically and you delivered.
I wonder if we'll get a shotgun like the root exotic but instead it causes volatile and jolt. Which would be godly for ad clear.
Should be destabilizing rounds first so everything around becomes volatile, then the jolt hits and activates volatile explosions
Aight hear me out Conditional Finality catalyst that adds this as an alternate firing mode. I would nut
@@gengarclefairy3475 would be an awesome ritual weapon
Doesn’t have to be a shotgun but I hope we get 2 more one for void/strand and the other for arc/6th subclass
Was Running Fourth Horseman with NBP and it was pretty crispy on Nezarec. Only issue was ammo reserves, which even then wasn't too bad since special anmos easier to come by.
That seems like a good combo. You can also rock a DPS heavy (rocketor linear) with this setup, in case you run out of ammo
I’m on pc and everytime I use a shotgun and sun perfectly on a target it never hits or registers the hit and it’s annoying. I can go around a corner and hit a guy in his face and it will say I didn’t hit him even if my crosshair is on him the entire time.
the overshield from shot gun multi kills gives you a bigger buff to shotguns rather than using barricade
Try an overflow+cascade point setup on the new strand shotgun from the HELM. All the pellets from acrius should proc cascade point on every shot. I know when I use trinity ghoul with it, I can shoot on shot At the head and it procs cascade point. Just a thought
Bows need 2 arrows to proc cascade
shotguns need 2 aswell but when a shotgun crits I think it only counts as 1 no matter how many pellets land I'm pretty you'd need 2 acrius shots to proc cascade point
@@jacob-2271 I’ll have to do a little testing, but In my head a swap combo of the two could be absolutely mental. You never how shit stacks anymore I swear 😂😂
alh is good too
No backup plans in pvp got nerfed because they changed the overshield activation from just a single kill while having a melee to needing to get multi kills which is not likely in pvp with the current roster of legendary shotguns. But it slaps in pve
Seen a few people using discord shotguns now to make up for special economy lol.
@@boneidle8420 gonna try this
ikr the exotic wasn't even that good in pvp. It's usage is niche, and requires a kill and ability.
One of the shotguns of all time
Ah yes, it’s definitely on of the shotguns.
Yup, it will again be good, until it's not.
Shotgun of one all the time of
One time all of the shotguns
The bot response responds
I might try to hybridize this into my doomfang build for a DPS version. I already run a decent shotgun in my kinetic slot, I might add Hollow Denial in there for some range.
which shotty in the top slot?
@@shotty.Maybe Heritage from DSC
You forgot that Acrius has extra dmg numbers that appear under the boss. The buff this season was only ammo and pellet range, acrius got trench at The launch of lightfall. I have always been a fan of acrius and its nice to see another boss to farm with it.
It got trench barrel in season 18 not lightfall
He didn’t forget them. He added all the damage numbers and subtracted the 15% debuff from divinity
honestly i feel something like either the mindbender's, the ikelos or the no remorse with incandescent would be even better for ad clear
Forget shotgun apes, Imabout to be shotgun King Kong!
Nessa's Oblation or Heritage would be a better option for this build. You free up your energy slot for a primary with heritage.
No dps buddy😂😂
? the whole point of last man standing is discord which makes you have infinite ammo
Please try ager's sceptor for dps with the new exotic cenotaph helmet on warlock. I did some damage testing on carl and it shredded. I can see it being a possible new dps meta, especially with well, bubble, surges, and tractor
I was flabbergasted when I saw the champion damage lmao
Where are you doing your damage at outside of Carl? What level was that nightfall?
Grand Overture would like a word. For basically any type of boss damage.
have Cascade Point on the new kinetic shotgun, can't wait to pair it with this build
im pretty sure NBP does stack with worm byproduct, might be worth a mention
The exotic works with no pullets shotguns? Like the new raid void shotgun?
Void Surge + NBP + Trench Barrel = fun
what about heritage and tractor cannon? i was thinking of running this
See,here's the thing. That implies I have enough raid spoils to get it.
Have you tried a Basso Ostinato w/ Envious and Trench + NBP build for dps?
I don’t have this weapon unfortunately, what is the best way to acquire spoils without having to rely on a fireteam all the time
Bro no back up plans with conditional finality is about to be GODLY
It already is
It will be when I get it
Does the melee lunge animation take longer vs the melee whiff animation?
Could we get a check on the changed Salvation's Grip, been playing around with it and enjoying it but can't say if it is actually good or am I just gaslighting myself with crystal shatter damage. >.>
what about the root of nighmares shotgun with reconstruccion and destabilizing rounds? i think is the best option for that build
Now THIS is titan power fantasy
i thought trench barrel was supposed to be a 50% buff? did it get changed recently cause i did some testing myself and got 50% just a few days ago
How does this compare to lament? As i imagine tbat will be the weapons main competition
Does anybody else here
something that sounds like rain on tin in the background when ehroar speaks
I'm thinking the until it's return shotty with cascade point and overflow paired with acrius, baby 4th horseman and acrius.
Could you revisit Salvations Grip for the rework.
Debuff the enemies for more damage with a void grenade also, that should be a fragment to do so
I would use this gun but I unlocked it years ago and for some reason in my collections it’s greyed out. Like I have to use my tokens on it.
What about the strand shotgun and then using funnel web or unforgiven
Shield throw will give you an oversheild
I may have heard wrong but i through surges didn’t stack with armor perk buffs ,like how Path of Burning steps new rework is suppose to operate now. Am I wrong in thinking running the 3x arc is a waste of time or did I miss something?
Certain armor perk buffs, no backup plans doesn’t fit into those changes. So you can double dip into damage buffs
@@Sicdirewolf thank you bro,feels good to be wrong sometimes. As in me. I’m wrong. Again. For the first time:
Can you test new raid shotgun?
Fyi for anyone that’s hunter main, you can use sealed ahamkara grasps with legend of acrius and it will automatically reload and proc trench barrel each melee
Won't deal the +40% dmg that No Backup Plans gets though.
Just use surges lol you literally have to prime up no backup plans dps= more ammo wasted, however I do agree it’s better for a run and gun situation. But from a stand point of extended dps hunter would be the better option you literally auto reload your weapon
but that's pointless, you can reload in between firing the weapon anyways
@@Jc-go3mz my man it takes longer to reload than to melee a enemy lol u must be trolling
You quite literally auto reload the entire magazine, reproc trench barely just by using a unpowered melee
Ehroar made a vid for the god roll no reprieve that with acrius and no backup plans is MEEEEEEEETAAAAA
You should use nessa oblation with destabilizing rounds or one to punch.
Poor Warden got deleted in that first clip
Not being able to stack damage anymore really sucks a lot of the fun out of the game😩
Don’t sleep on shotguns that have lead from gold and swashbuckler. I just farmed the one small step and it wrecks when you get times 5 swash + NBP
ALSO for the reload speed part trench also gives ou reload speed
You're making me want to reset my artifact on every build lol
Doesn't heavy ammo scout ONLY work with heavy ammo finder? It just lets your ammo finder perks drop for teammates.
Ok but on a real note that drip is SEXY on that warlock. SHEEEESH
im curious to see this tested against explicator solo
So does trench barrel stack with no back up plans ?
Yea coz it's weapon buff not ability buff and it stacks with surges coz they are armor buffs
Could you test whispers again since sniper got 10% dmg buff
Hear me out... 4th Horseman + Cascade Point shotgun (the strand taken shotgun has it)
“The buff this season” is that it’s got the arc surge buff this season
Legend of Acrius makes me question why nobody has made a shotgun with the power of a 50 bmg sniper irl
Wait so it stacks with Surge mods and Overcharge shotgun?
But what if I use this with double slugs plus Anarchy? Would that be equal if not better?
I dont think so but I'm gonna guess, probably not. Slugs have been nerfed and so was anarchy, quite a while ago, while acrius got trench barrel.
Go back to beyond light dude. Double slug anarchy aint been meta for a damn long time
@@heavymusicguy8227 it is still good dps idk what your on about 🤣🤣
@@sauceinmyface9302 anarchy after gl buffs is 4.something% weaker than old sealth just ammo isn't as big
@@Zefrone you use every single one of your weapons just to have good dps when you could just use a rocket instead lmao
What's the point of using ammo scout without an ammo finder? Isn't the entire point of scouts that it makes ammo for your team when your finders make ammo?
Is this build better than bonk hammer for solo content?
I think their both really good, but personally I do think this build is better if you can proc everything correctly, hammer build you just gotta like go burr 😂 so in the end it’s just a play style preference
Could run lead from gold trench basso ostinato with a kinetic blinding GL
I'm a simple gamer. Me like health bar go down. Me like video.
What about collective obligation with destabilizing and repulsor?
Is it possible to get the catalyst in 2023 for the legend of acrius?
Yenos
Does NBP stack with trench barrel?
Yea
Vs all strike bosses?😢
6:12 nice 😉
doesnt it still crit so the divs making it really easy to hit crits? i mean realistically youre not criting without a div on there right?
Has anyone tried 4th horseman with the new changes to the No backup plans?
I think some damage is missing because aren’t the damage numbers for 2 of the pellets hidden.
Yes, there is a dmg pulse like tractor that does dmg as well and the numbers are located far under the boss so its easy to miss
@@CPWS_The_Stingray I know about that but there are 15 pellets that come from acrius instead of 12 like other shottys
good thing i just spent all my spoils on tarrabah :DDDDDD
So doesnt this buff stack w surge mods tho?
So now that bungie is hopefully done messing with acrius can 1k actually get the love it needs to not suck. It actually blows my mind that they thought acrius needed a reserve buff before 1k.
I haven’t played with the build but I feel like survival abilty would be lacking in high end content and it seems like having to put your barricade in front of a champion would be awkward. Tell me if I’m wrong though.
Combine with Iron Banner shotgun with voltshot. You're welcome.
For ad clear I have found that the new strand Shotgun is also good with overflow and trench barrel plus it’s craftable with enhanced perks
yh tryna get surrounded on it
Anyone know where the catalyst drops from now?
You have to buy it from exotic kiosk, the game doesn’t consider you owning it if you never got the catalyst
Nightfalls only. Pretty sure the odds increase with higher difficulty, but I got mine off the guardian games competitive nightfall, which I believe is just a hero difficulty nightfall.
@@grippygripper wait really it said I didn’t own the gun so I had to rebuy it from kiosk
@@Pineapple_Papi They're talking about the catalyst not the gun. When the raid launched they released 2 versions of Acrius the first version is the quest one and doesn't count 2nd version was the actual weapon. After you got the catalyst from doing prestige leviathan however this was later changed when they removed the raid to nightfalls.
@@wintereclipse3263 ah I see I got the quest one and was wondering why I had to get the exotic from kiosk for it to be officially owned for me
for reloading if you're on warlock you can use rain of fire to dodge reload and save time, dps goes nuts
I'm using this on my hunter
Just use double special and incandescent shotgun not the shitty new one
That build sounds awesome but honestly discord doesn't make it in any way. Surely a void shotgun especially one with trench barrel or destabilising rounds or something would be better overall??
The thing about discord is that you literally get infinite ammo and constant over shields. Another shotgun like nessa’s might be nice but unless you’re fully specing into special ammo finders and void scavengers, you run out of ammo VERY quickly. With this build, you’re able to use your shotgun as a primary and pretty much play DOOM in destiny.
I’ve been using basso ostinato with trench and lead to gold with heavy finder, and special finisher and I pretty much never run out of ammo
I dont have acrius but im going to try this with 4th horsemen
I like this shotgun a lot but the reload speed is always been an issue for me. For some reason bungie is too scared to touch the real issue with this weapon-the reload speed. I would rather they give me 3 bullets and make the gun reload normal like other shotty. For a heavy it just doesn’t feel satisfying specifically for solo DPS.
"is now a dps monster" it has always been a dps monster, just no encounters that favor it. cmon man
Just like 4 horseman. Ppl hypeing nbp and shottys but forgeting that right now there is maybe 2 encounter that they r viable
@@kryhcho Slugs? Slugs have plenty of viable encounters.
the range boost makes a big difference
I love you videos man but I’d wish you would drop a dim link some times 😢
I've been using Until Its Return, the Takenified version of Last Man Standing. That with overflow, trench barrel and a special ammo finder makes for some ridiculous damage output. Can then use repulsor / destabilising age-old bond to generate overshields without needing to use your abilities
i do have to ask why the single ammo finder scount on the helmet, it would not find ammo as you dont have any other ammo finder mods equipped
