⚙ DIM Loadout: dim.gg/tqxb3gy/Ergo-Dance EDIT: Apparently I was using the Wave Frame's heavy attack wrong and you can follow up with a free eager edge light attack. It's a new frame, so I didn't know. Can't blame me.
Reaper does activate on every dance machine dodge. Only aspects and abilities dont activate on multi dodge. So you could dodge and then activate the arc conductor and dodge multiple times for more orbs.
I got 2 of these swords last week... thought they seemed kinda useless by description, so I never tried them. Like you, I assumed you had to take arc damage for them to activate like the Riskrunner. Glad I threw them into my vault!
fyi, Ascencion + Solar Siphon + Ergo Sum Perfect Fifth + Radiant Dance Machine + Radiant = Infinite Ascension that is affected by Radiant, procs Perfect Fifth, jolts and procs ignitions. Probably a bug, but you should try it
I've used the caster frame version of this too but I still love the wave frame version so much more because that free light attack you get after your heavy attack lets you close the gap on any remaining adds and your arc conductor cleans everything up that survived, and with the artifact mod you're getting all this free ammo back
@@MavenPhoenix No problem, it's such an awesome sword. It's become my new favorite add clear weapon in destiny and so far there hasn't been too many situations where I had to swap it out for something else. Love your videos by the way!
@@MavenPhoenix It'll get like 3 hits (on one target) every heavy attack for 4 ammo: 1. Use heavy, the uppercut hits if it connects 2. Wave 3. Follow-up light attack
In a similar vein, I made an arc hunter build using double swords and Ascension. The Ascension kills count as sword kills for some reason so you can proc things like Strategist to get your Ascension back, Chain Reaction/Incandescent, as well as some of the Ergo Sum perks like Insectoid Grenades, Stormbringer, and even Gathering Light which lets you spam more Ascensions as well when you combine it with Flow State. You just turn into an electric helicopter generating tons of orbs from siphons and you don't even need to swing your sword. I cleared Dual Destiny like this very quickly only using ammo on the bosses and tormentors.
@@joyce_rx If you're using gifted conviction and holding a sword whatever kills you get with Ascension trigger those perks. I don't think it's intentional but it works. Chain Reaction and Strategist on False Idols works really well because it refills your class ability and lets you keep spamming it.
I have a Lightweight Ergo Sum with Arc COnductor and I love it, so when I saw this video I knew I had to watch, and I'm glad I did. I copied your loadout (with a minor tweak here and there for my playstyle) and almost literally walked through a lost sector with it. So good, I saved it and plan on using it for a long time. Thank you, you've earned a follow from me.
On prismatic, use ascension…it does the ergo sum intrinsic abilities without even swinging sword. Works with a few of the ergo versions like robots/lighting strikes ect… combine with dance machines & combination blow for infinite flying
I've been using my ergo sum with ark conductor on my warlock. I used it to complete the legendary campaign for final shape along with an ark caster frame temptations hook with Vorpal weapon. I cruised through the legendary campaign with this setup along with osteomancy and stasis freezing everything and chaining ark lightning everywhere. Who made the legendary campaign feel like a cakewalk. Loved it!
Fun fact about the Arc Conductor perk, its proc condition is a heavy attack, it says nothing about *_dealing damage_* with said heavy attack. You can get Arc Conductor on any frame (I like Lightweight for the speed boost), pop a heavy attack on nothing in particular, and waltz around the corner blasting everything with your magic lightning.
I have been rocking a prismatic variety of Thai and I’m so so glad it’s getting some attention here! This is awesome. I didn’t even think of arc surge! Can’t wait to retool mine
Hey great video as always Maven! Ergo Sum also works with the Hunter aspect Ascension. Using Ascension while holding Ergo Sum causes the kills to proc Ergo Sum's exotic perk (Wolf pack, cloud strike lightning, parasite insectoids, etc.) Idk if it's intentional to be this way. With Radiant Dance Machines, dodge near an enemy and then you'll have unlimited Ascension uses as long as you're getting kills.
I have that exact same role but im using it for an ARC warlock build using geomags. I am a walking nuclear bomb and get my super back extremely quickly. It has to be some of the most fun on destiny ive had in awhile.
I got a 50 with this build last night and I think it works on expert onslaughts pretty well. You can basically do whatever you want up until around wave 40. As long as somebody stayed close to and protected the ADU you can run into most spawns and survive. Even in the boss rooms I could just run around and do whatever. The only thing I noticed is in situations where you're not invisible or in devour it can be rough in the last 10 or so waves. The lack of damage resistance armor mods made it even tougher. Best advice I could give would be to back off and go to your gun when you can't get the dance machines going. Also I tried it in the GM hydra strike and it worked fine. If anything it was a carry on my part because the people I took from fire team finder died a lot...
I've always been a big sword user in the game and since the buff Castor Frames have shot straight to the top of my favorite Sword variant to use. I main banner Titan so im always looking for that proc and Castors are perfect for it Lately I've been using a double castor set up with my beloved 4/4 god-roll Dragoncult Sickle (Chain-Reaction/Slice/Balanced Guard/Hungry Edge) paired with Arc Conductor Ergo Sum. Such a fun set-up and I never die, like barely ever (Stoicism Titan mark with Spirit of the Scars helps with that).
You're the real deal here cuz you're always first with these crazy ass, top tier builds. Seriously, I think it was a couple days after seeing your Warlock Getaway Artist build before seeing it everywhere. And nobody really gave you credit for being first. Damn. Probably gonna happen again here 😂.
Definitely an interesting take with the sword. You can get so much more use out of the sword with transcendence. It’s actually designed to be a prismatic exotic. I’m gonna give this a try & maybe mess around with the subclass 👍
I'll just use strand titan, stronghold, banner, into the fray, thread of warding, thread of wisdom, thread of transmutation, thread of generation with shackle grenade if i want to use ergo sum
Recently discovered you on youtube, I watched your sparrow flying tutorial and managed to fly high with it, not as good as slipstreaming though LOL anyway these build videos and explanations are really clear and concise and I have just put this together myself and Looking forward to using/trying it out.. Thank you maven. earned a sub and a thumbs up.
I believe Reaper does work on RDM dodges, you just got to bypass the cooldown by using multiple reaper mods. 1 mod is a 10s cooldown, 2 mods is a 5s cooldown and 3 mods is a 1s cooldown.
I have this roll on my Ergo and the build is a lot of fun. That said, Mavens Triton Vice Arc glaive build is the most fun you can have on Hunter; and now it's even better since Tritons recent buff!
Finally a video praising the power of Ergo Sum’s (Arc Conductor + Caster Frame)! I was lucky enough to land this in my first drop and I cant put it away.
Caster 5/5 thou the waveframe is for faster burst CQC clearing. The caster allows you to project out to very distant targets. So get both? But I often find the need to hit distant targets and the upclose arc works just fine as long as you take other actions.
Literally watching your video this morning while completing an overthrow only to be rewarded with a caster frame Ergo with Arc Conductor. Only if I could luckily like this for the class item perks I want.
What was the reason for Radiant Machines ? I didn't see multi dodge being used much. If we just need 1 or 2 quick dodges, frostees/6th coyote would be good enough 🤔
Rhe reason in the video is just more so because it gives you leniency in when to use Ascension. But I mean your lowest cd is 28/29 seconds. If you don't use Ascension or your class ability every 28/29 seconds then theres no point in RDM, more so when you also have class regen mods. Only reason to use RDM is to spam it like a helicopter.
I've been using this exact weapon setup on my warlock but I've been using edge transit. Nearly have 8k kills on my sword already caster frame is deffinately the way to go!
The prismatic aspect “Ascension” actually works with radiant dance machines, you gotta make a video on it You can literally be an infinite lightning helicopter of mayhem
Great video but you forgot to talk about the artifact, you can get infinite special ammo from rapid sword kills with the artifact which procs off the arc conductor
I found out today the arc lightning stuns overloads. I have no idea how (counts as blinding damage?) but it’s a monstrously effective tool in solo lost sectors. I’ve got all 3 frames; there is a vortex as well. I haven’t played onslaught in months but I’m guessing this sword is like a cheat code in there.
I use this on my Getaway Artist warlock. the stasis turrets freeze everything and its effortless to clean it all up with this version of Ergo Sum. Wave Frames let you get a light attack in for free after the heavy attack.
I have aggressive and its pretty okay except against flying bosses and such. I use it with mask of bakris and its pretty good with an infinite dodges on prismatic for freezing decoy dodges.
i'm a titan main but this build sounds fun as hell. the ergo i've been using is a vortex frame with unplanned reprieve. it's more of a burst dps option than your build though
I run x3 reaper mods w/ RDM to make the reaper cooldown 1 sec making the build an orb farming machine everytime i dodge (I have play tested it and yes x3 reaper creates orbs every dodge from arc conductor kills w/ RDM)
I love ergo sum. The only rolls I am not loving are gathering light, storm bringer, and sacred flame. The colony, telesto, ghorn, polaris, and arc conductor ones are super fun and I have come to realize caster or wave frames are the best frames for pretty much every ergo sum. I am SOOOO happy caster frames have been getting love. I have been a big fan of them since sola scar. I never really sued them but I always thought they had potential and then bungie forgot about them. I have only made like 10 posts on the bungie forums. I only do that when I feel like something is important and I made a post about a year ago talking about caster frames and how I would love to see more of them. Little did I know we would get multiple new caster frames, some decent buffs, a ritual caster frame, and ergo sum. How many seasons was it until we got a new caster frame? 10 seasons... Anyways something people slept on last season was dragon sickle with unravel. This combo was an add clear machine. There is one other thing I want them to play with and that is sword shields. I think a reflect shield would be really cool. It can have a short guard time of like 3 seconds or something but have it reflect incoming projectiles like the hive relic sword does or arc staff.
Hey maven, you don't need to land a hit to activate arc conductor, also if you have the wave frame you should use the follow up heavy charge attack, it doesn't consume extra ammo.
I been using a castor version of this for ages now . Was wondering is it essential that u have swordmasters guard ? I’m using one with balanced guard atm. Love the builds 💥👏🏻
So apparently that aspect can also proc Heavy sword perks like Cold Steel. Havent gotten around to try anything fun yet but sounds like there coule be some fun Hunter Helicopter builds to do, assuming this isnt an unintended bug and gets fixed by Bungie because we’re never allowed to have fun :[ lol Edit: Didnt even realize this wasnt to do witb Ascension. Its the only reason to showcase RDM here.
A little bonus note, About the reaper mod only working on that first dodge: The reaper mod was also changed to be like the other orb maker mods with it's own 10-sec internal cooldown. Most people never noticed because we usually don't spam our class abilities like we do our melee and grenade, but if you put on multiple copies (just like the other orb makers) that internal cooldown can be reduced from 10 > 5 > 1 second. That being said, that doesn't seem to be necessary on this build, as those other slots seem to have been taken care of anyways. But keep in mind for future reference!
@@MavenPhoenix tailor your boss videos towards non-hunters. despite the FOTM my hunter sits in her damaged red war armor and will always sit there never played since day 1.
Warlocks outdamage stillhunt with euphony (not rly accessable but has to be said as stillhunt is mentioned). Best ergo sums are discussed in aegis' video. best dps is casterframe, jagged edge, swordmasters guard and the perfect fifth. this outdamages even enhanced frenzy/surrounded on guillotine best frame for dps not perk related is wave frame. other good frames are aggresive and caster. best default perk is wolfpack rounds worst perks for ergo: collony, cloudstrike, riskrunner, travelers chosen it is strongly recommended to go for prismatic as transcendence gives you increased damage (no cat) and gives you ammo back for damage dealt with you grenade (cat). when I tested it it was like 6 ammo every other second
I only have stormbringer for arc swords so far. Nice RNG? Looking forward to finding these perks so I can try this out! Thanks for the info and the build!
I have been trying to farm for this damn roll for so long. I cant get waveframe on the superconductor man. 50 Ergo Sums, only 3 waveframes, 2 Solar and 1 Void
Day 1. I have 41 Different Ergo sums. At least its always a different one but the search continues for arc conductor caster frame or at least the waved frame since I already love using my crown splitter.

Only aspects and abilities dont activate on multi dodge.
So you could dodge and then activate the arc conductor and dodge multiple times for more orbs.
@@RandyVoortman-gz7pc true it just has a cool down so you have to run multiple copies of reaper

how would you manage to make ascension inherit procs like strategist or incandescent? just hold any weapon with the perk?

Hey, do you have a DIM for this ? I'm very interessed to try it please

doesnt seem to trigger arc conducter for me when i use ascension while holding ergo sum. Seems i need to use my heavy atttack

Can you post up a dim of your build? This sounds like a ton of fun!
i swear her builds are always insane, such good ideas i swear
77 Ergo sums later and it was absolutely worth every second. Thank you so much for this info 🙏 I feel like Static Shock. ⚡️
Thank you - can’t wait to try this

I've been using this since day 3 tfs while everyone was spamming getaway builds. I'm kinda mad she made a video lol. Bungie nerfing this 100%
I’ve been using the gold tusk build you recommended for a while now! I love it
I just got the Caster Frame version of this. Pissed me off. Gonna keep grinding for the Wave Frame.
I'm in the opposite boat where I have been farming long for days for the caster version and have only gotten many wave frame drops... 😅
Been using this Ergo Sum on Verity a lot since I got it. Keeps me clean while i'm doing the mechanics, especially in the solo rooms.
Definitely an interesting take with the sword. You can get so much more use out of the sword with transcendence. It’s actually designed to be a prismatic exotic. I’m gonna give this a try & maybe mess around with the subclass 👍

"Broken" and "infinite" are like my least favorite words to hear in a D2 build video.
I have over 15,000 kills on my arc conductor sword lol, nobody listened to me when I told them it was God tier. Now they're all listening!
I used the arc conductor vortex frame and it was awesome as well .... I was surprised how good arc conductor is on these swords!!

Awesome Build. First video of yours I've seen. Instant subscribe.
thanks ^.^

Have any titan ideas? Right now im using this tHing cal ramparts with fire hammers and this cool cerberlus gun after a while i can kill some adds
The prismatic aspect “Ascension” actually works with radiant dance machines, you gotta make a video on it
You can literally be an infinite lightning helicopter of mayhem
Awesome build!
I use the frisbee frame so I dont have to worry about the eyes or flying object, for the rest, if I found this roll it will became my new favourite
got that roll on my second ergo that dropped I'll have to give this a try
Caster arc conductor was my first roll and I was disappointed as first. They way everything just kinda died around me was really wild
Great video but you forgot to talk about the artifact, you can get infinite special ammo from rapid sword kills with the artifact which procs off the arc conductor

Its from the artifact mod overload sword perhaps
I had faith that at least you would come up with some unique builds and you did
I use this on my Getaway Artist warlock. the stasis turrets freeze everything and its effortless to clean it all up with this version of Ergo Sum. Wave Frames let you get a light attack in for free after the heavy attack.
Ive got lightweight frame, caster frame and a couple of vortex options.
I haven't gotten the arc conductor one yet but ive been running double sword on strand titan and its been fun. This artifact is amazing for sword play
I was mad that all my Ergo Sums were arc conductor last night until I saw this vid
Best ergo sword build I have found , very fun, no catalyst needed like she said
Radiant Dance Machines + Acension
Its fun AF and very effective for movement and addclear
Pretty sick! Thank you for sharing!
Awesome vid!
Oh this looks cool, I need to keep on the ergo grind. I havent gotten many good ones
What do you think about Special Ammo Finder on the head gear instead of Heavy Ammo 🧐
I have aggressive and its pretty okay except against flying bosses and such. I use it with mask of bakris and its pretty good with an infinite dodges on prismatic for freezing decoy dodges.
That's pretty good! I'll definitely be on the lookout for one of these. 😃
i'm a titan main but this build sounds fun as hell. the ergo i've been using is a vortex frame with unplanned reprieve. it's more of a burst dps option than your build though
I got the wave arc conductor but still looking out for the caster arc conductor
My first ergo was this on caster frame. Been having a ball with it ever since
Excellent, thank you
:)
I can’t believe i had a roll sleeping in my vault, it’s in fact super broken.
This sword definitely cooks, I'm gonna attempt as many GMs as I can with it, wish me luck.
Wow, paused the video when I needed an ergo sum caster arc conductor. The next overthrow, I got it. Thanks Maven!
nice!
I knew there was a reason I have saved up 15 ergo sum's lol, I have the same one as you so will give this a go after work
Thanks for the video and explanation. I am going to give it a go. Looks like fun and I can get that catalyst done as well. 🤠
Request: Is there an insane build around a Void Ergo Sum with Nightstalker/Gyrfalcon's/Vanishing Step/Stylish Executioner?
btw maven if you attack after the wave you get a free lunging light attack that costs no ammo
I run x3 reaper mods w/ RDM to make the reaper cooldown 1 sec making the build an orb farming machine everytime i dodge (I have play tested it and yes x3 reaper creates orbs every dodge from arc conductor kills w/ RDM)

Can you use this with a Warlock? I have versions with both frame types. Just discovered your channel , some great videos thank you.
Hey maven, you don't need to land a hit to activate arc conductor, also if you have the wave frame you should use the follow up heavy charge attack, it doesn't consume extra ammo.
I been using a castor version of this for ages now . Was wondering is it essential that u have swordmasters guard ? I’m using one with balanced guard atm. Love the builds 💥👏🏻
I got this sword. But sometimes the heavy doesn’t do the attack, he just wifs. Doesn’t seem to be related to my charge either.
I use this sword with ascent on arc with the new exotic chest. I'm a bomb dropping, lighting rod, helicopter of death.
I'm using the aggressive frame instead with the power slam. Now, that's nasty! 😊
Can you make some lists of builds that don’t need any sort of expansion pack??
I really like this channel now.
Did they recently need the arc conductor?
Fantastic build however i would probably slot in frosteez instead of dance machines
So apparently that aspect can also proc Heavy sword perks like Cold Steel. Havent gotten around to try anything fun yet but sounds like there coule be some fun Hunter Helicopter builds to do, assuming this isnt an unintended bug and gets fixed by Bungie because we’re never allowed to have fun :[ lol
Edit: Didnt even realize this wasnt to do witb Ascension. Its the only reason to showcase RDM here.
I've deleted 2 of those ergo rolls early on because I thought the only "good" one was the one with wolfpack. 😢
I have so many ergo sums and dont even have one thats arc the rng is crazy
I noticed it not proccing on cursed thrall as well, I'm guessing not targeting explosive units is intentional.
I have to try it in the moth cyst for the under 4 min run
you don't need to do damage for most of ergo sums exotic traits. you just need to use a heavy attack.
Can you do titan stronghold build with solar ergo sum sword ?
I have about 20 of these swords and haven't used one. I'm really feeling weapon fatigue in this game now.
What’s the best 2 legendary weapon to go with this? Can this handle 2005+ nightfall?
On prismatic, would stylish executioner proc with winter's shroud slow when arc conductor kills enemy?
A little bonus note, About the reaper mod only working on that first dodge:
The reaper mod was also changed to be like the other orb maker mods with it's own 10-sec internal cooldown. Most people never noticed because we usually don't spam our class abilities like we do our melee and grenade, but if you put on multiple copies (just like the other orb makers) that internal cooldown can be reduced from 10 > 5 > 1 second.
That being said, that doesn't seem to be necessary on this build, as those other slots seem to have been taken care of anyways. But keep in mind for future reference!
Maven pls do a updated grapple spam build on hunter prismatic
Shrug add clear is a non issue at this point. Would like to see more accessible boss damage videos
Celestial Still Hunt is the only thing u really need
@MavenPhoenix sad but true. Just fyi though stasis is doing wild boss damage atm. I just used it to clear riven the easy way.
if you want an actual good breakdown on DPS rolls check out ageis's video kinda braindead to use this for ad clear ngl
@@MavenPhoenix tailor your boss videos towards non-hunters. despite the FOTM my hunter sits in her damaged red war armor and will always sit there never played since day 1.
Warlocks outdamage stillhunt with euphony (not rly accessable but has to be said as stillhunt is mentioned).
Best ergo sums are discussed in aegis' video.
best dps is casterframe, jagged edge, swordmasters guard and the perfect fifth. this outdamages even enhanced frenzy/surrounded on guillotine
best frame for dps not perk related is wave frame. other good frames are aggresive and caster.
best default perk is wolfpack rounds
worst perks for ergo: collony, cloudstrike, riskrunner, travelers chosen
it is strongly recommended to go for prismatic as transcendence gives you increased damage (no cat) and gives you ammo back for damage dealt with you grenade (cat). when I tested it it was like 6 ammo every other second
I only have stormbringer for arc swords so far. Nice RNG? Looking forward to finding these perks so I can try this out! Thanks for the info and the build!
I have been trying to farm for this damn roll for so long. I cant get waveframe on the superconductor man.
50 Ergo Sums, only 3 waveframes, 2 Solar and 1 Void
That’s one weapon I am going to spend all day grinding for! As usual, I think I dismantled a previous one :(
Day 1. I have 41 Different Ergo sums. At least its always a different one but the search continues for arc conductor caster frame or at least the waved frame since I already love using my crown splitter.
