I have a feeling Graviton Forfeit was updated out of foresight by Bungie for Nightstalkers when Void 3.0 comes out. Looking forward to customizing my Gunslinger.
Jester Gemini can stop someone from regening shields, and works thru walls in the middle of the map. If they get away from your guns and grenades and are about to hide for shield regen, dash once and they have to wait more. They rule for chasing people down. double good for getting away as top tree void cuz your invisibility is actually pretty effective when their screen is all blurry. ALSO you can dodge under a roaming super and watch as they wander off to the wrong side of the map.
Infinite blade barrage in pve would be fun
Sixth coyote, regen dodge and bombardiers
Radiant dance are C
“If Wormhusk Wasnt So Ugly I Probably Would Never Take it Off” Lmao That’s Literally Exactly How I Feel
So glad I got the ornament for it
@@nickburton3919 It's not much better looks like big red anus
@@rousrouslan4023 nah man you just look like Loaderbot from BL2 and tales from the borderlands and it makes the item even better :D
@@nickburton3919 yea you ahve to make ypur whole hunter golden to match it
@@rousrouslan4023 nah it can look nice with the right gear and shaders easier now with Ada-1 making it able to make armour ornaments
6:15 “If it wasn’t so ugly, i wouldn’t take it off” this is relatable on a whole new level
I do agree - but I still never take it off. 😊 I've got an ornament on there though.
It looks good with abhorrent, but you can't get that armour anymore so... yeah.
I actually kinda like the look with certain cloaks, always liked the "boney" armors like in taken king, but without a cloak it's horrifying to a whole 'nother level
@@sleepy6372 yeah, there's a couple cloaks that doesn't have a hood right? I put that on once and couldn't swap it out fast enough. My eyes!
For me that's Sixth Coyote. It would be my number one if it weren't so horrendous looking.
As a Young Ahamkara Spine main for PvP I appreciate someone finally giving them the respect they deserve. Thank you, Castle
YEET
*enemies rush in mayhem*
*4 bodies fly into the air bc they didn't see my 4 trips I forgot I threw*
SAME. Thanks castle
@@nobodie9996 now shaax can stop saying MORE GRENADES
@@BlitzDeera the one time I made our dude proud 🤣
Young Ahamkara's Spine has a special place in my heart. It was my first exotic in both Destiny 1 and Destiny 2.
It was a blast to work on this with you my friend :) thanks for the opportunity!
yooo your the guy, from that one discord server, with a great pfp, and awsome scrims! wowzers
YAASSSSSS
Hahah thanks Fred!
What HC did you use at 0:09 gjerda?
One thing to be aware of with the Celestial Nighthawk is that it can destroy a ward of dawn and kill the titan inside the ward with a single shot, and do it from a safe distance; all you have to do is aim at the titan inside the bubble. It also breaks wells and behemoths very nicely, and I use it as a swap during trials if there is a bubble titan on the enemy team. Yes, I run Celestial Nighthawk in Trials; yes, I am a maniac.
Its really not a bad exotic for guaranteeing super shutdowns.
@@jollabang9564 Yeah I was just thinking this. It's essentially just an uno reverse for any super seeing as how it's it just instant death for any one thing. Plus the super regen is nice so you can shut down more supers than you would without.
@@paynevess8822 facts. Plus it doesn't look halfbad
it doesnt kill the titan, just breaks the bubble.
Bones of Eao made me main hunter for a bit, double strafe jump and shade step was one of the most fun ive had in crucible. Hope they bring it back one day
you mean double Better Control? xD
@@iaxf1256 no he means double strafe jump,
bones of eao quite literally gave you an extra jump regardless of what jump you had equipped
it's obvious how much work you put into these videos! S+ tier content
Thanks so much Kuts! Lots of help from Gjerda and Godin for sure.
Another thing about dragons shadow: once you put them on, it's very hard to take them off.
Besides situational stuff like celestial nighthawk for boss DPS I almost never take it off. I'm SO used to the huge handling and mobility buffs And automatically reloading everything for me that it's reached a point if I use any other exotic I become uncomfortable and out of my zone. I took them off once and went into a match and I was dodging after emptying my magazines and I was confused why nothing was reloaded. So yeah be aware you'll Crutch them hard.
For me its stompies, without them I feel like a slug
Same goes for Wormhusk.
I think it actually hinders your learning curve, because you don't get punished as harshly for bad positioning.
Yep. I use Dragon's Shadow in raids and everyone hates me for it.
I use dragon shadow on hyper aggressive cqc pvp builds. So usually smg, sidearms, and shotguns. Getting in quicker and getting the dodge back after an engagement to quickly reload my weapons and kill the next player. I like it on bottom tree strider as dodging and then sprinting gives my dodge back quicker and dodging makes it easier close the gap to avoid damage or disengage as it's harder to hit me.
@@ShadowDestiny i started using Dragons Shadow because of you and now my went from 0.8 to 1.2
This is comprehensive. Thank you for putting this together. I personally can’t take off Wormhusk Crown in PvP.
Glad you enjoyed!
the words of a shttr
Castle Content is always S+ tier. So much thought and diligence into each upload. No clickbaits. I doff my hat to you sir!
Thank you Viking
graviton forfeit also has increased invisibility on top of the increase that it originally gave. also, if you're lucky and get 2 invisibilities one after the other (which is possible with GF), the invisibility can last up to 28 seconds.
I use them with top tree and travelers I literally run around invisible the entire match. They are for sure s tier
This with rat king and a bow
I'm glad I was able to help out in the making of this video, great vid Castle!
Thanks again!
Got Bones of Eao in D1, never took them off
I like exotics that in one way or another change an aspect of how your class functions and gives you a big buff when capitalizing on that change. Ashen Wake, Mask of Bakris, Boots of the Assembler etc.
“Support”
Hunter mains: “What does that word mean?”
😂 😂 😂
F you bro just kidding
Awesome video!!! Glad somebody finally gave sixth coyote some love. Very underrated exotic. Keep it up
Castle is the most slept on content creator in this community I swear
“Bungie fix that and take my money” about dragon shadow taking shaders. Love this
Honestly man you out out such good content. Love your stuff, joy to watch.
Thank you! Please feel free to share with others :) haha
This video makes me sub to your channel. love it, great thing
Relatively new to destiny so thank you ssooo much for the visual representations of how the armor pieces work !!!!
Good video, really helped me thank you
No problem!
Also Omnioculus’ perk procs anytime you go invisible, and if you use it with Rat King you will get 4 resist stacks. I basically only use them together because I feel pretty confident that I can always survive whatever is going to happen after I get the Rat King kill and I may be able to get another kill without dying. I also suppose it would work great with Travelers Chosen but I find that it works a whole lot better with Rat King
Love my sixth coyote in pvp, especially with invis dodges and gambler's dodge for instant smoke bombs
This was a good video. Thanks :)
Thank you!
When I got omni, I actually used it in an aggressive way with a kickstart plug1and rat king. It was surprisingly effective
This video was extremely helpful and very well put together, so sincerely thank you very much.
I mainly only play Warlock, fairly exclusively for years, with only a dabble here and there on my other characters. But with the recent void 3.0 changes, I'm actually really loving my Hunter, so much so that I have been playing my Hunter as my main, and with Iron Banner this week, I am determined to crack some skulls with my Hunter. However, since my Hunter has collected a bit of dust, this video really helps explain each exotic, including what each exotic does as well as their individual strengths/weaknesses in the crucible. I also enjoyed the bit of humour sprinkled throughout, so thank you again.
Hey Michael! Thank you for the compliment and glad you found it helpful!
@@CastleContent You're very welcome, thank you for the content. This video alone earned you a subscriber. 😊
This was great! thanks for all the hard work that went into this.I can't wait for you to do Titan and warlock.
Glad you enjoyed it! I did Titan a couple months ago if you're interested!
That's right! I did watch that.
21:28, you are not getting enough credit for that transition. You had me trippin' out for a min.
I'd love to see the Bones back. I don't think I took them off in D1 when I switched from Titan to Hunter. You could stay in the air from one side of a map to the other.
I love Godin's stuff. I listen to his and Nomad's stuff on repeat.
One thing that was missed with Young Ahamkara's Spine is that it also allows you to stick your trip mine grenades to teammates.
Oathkeepers do have an additional bonus to them that wasn't brought up. Bows have a gimmick where they will do additional damage for about half a second after being fully drawn. Oathkeepers essentially keep bows in that state when fully drawn, meaning you can pretty much always do max damage. This is very noticeable with the Le Monarque exotic, as headshots on a perfect draw cause an explosion. Furthermore, you will note that the purple glow that normally dims on it will remain lit. As mentioned though, these are less useful for people who are already good at bows. I think they need some sort of buff.
I think the best way to run Aeons in a 6-player activity might be to have only half of the team running one of each of the mods while the other half on the team are free to specialize their build. For example, there is a lot of potential synergy between Sect of Vigor and the Stag. Ooh, it didn't occur to me until just now, but you could also throw in a warlock with Boots of the Assembler and Lumina. A bottom tree void Hunter with Graviton Forfeit would fit in nicely with that when combined with 6 Rat Kings.
New subscriber. Video is well thought out and wonderfully done. Great job. I learned a lot
Welcome aboard! Thanks Ricky.
Creepy god damn castle love to see ya still making content even after all those setbacks btw it’s a me 420noscopedl from twitch or I guess lolnoscoped from PlayStation
YOOOO NOSCOPED! RAFFLE RIGGER!
Great video
Assassin's cowl also procs with stasis stars and finishers on any class. Also when you do finishers, the invisibility lasts longer and can make your already invis last longer
Yay! The dance machines was my first exotic in D1.
I personally like it when exotics buff a very specific thing. It makes it feel more personal that you chose the exotic you are running
That second knife throw in the beginning had me drop my jaw
I would love to see another tier list with the changes coming this upcoming season.
i run ophidia with blade barrage quite a bit, the fast recharge between kills from the fan of knives added to the double charge gives it an almost 100% up time as long as you have fodder- amazing in PvE, with red bar enemies, and after the final stage you can comfortably throw ~12 rounds of knives back to back without hitting anything before the buff goes away
Your dog taking up your time is forgiven. So cute!!!
with bombardiers the good thing with them is on stasis you can swap out winter shroud with another aspect that could potentially give you two extra fragments
Shinobu vows where my first exotics when I started playing crucible frequently while I ended up switching to wormhusk down the road but I still rock the skip grenades , like u said there great to either flush opponent out from hiding or even find out where they are by following the trackers
The "my dog did it, I love him" made me lol!
one cool thing about the foetracer;
if ure rocking the thorn and have the perk active u can actually 2 head (I think any resilience?) so thats kinda cool :3
11:54 this is exactly what I felt with not only Shards but also with the Warlock Skull exotic for Nova bomb. I either got a insultingly small amount for killing one or two, or half for killing like 5. There's no way it's percentage based, or if it is it's got some Bungie RNG jank in there.
Bones/Strafe/Mida-Winters was soooo good. Literally hit a 2ish minute rumble game back in D1 with them
Cant for for you to blow up brother you are by far one of the best destiny PVP reviewers
Very detailed and concise video. I now feel like I know enough now to really reap the benefits of a hunter. Thanks for taking the time!
No problem! Thx for your feedback
So I'm you are big into tier list and I love it honestly I rlly enjoy watching them but, now I know bows aren't very pog but I would enjoy watching what someone else thinks Abt bows in pvp!! (Legendary and exotic obvi) I love seeing ppl try out bows or weapons that are anti meta!!!
Im a bow main and theres nothing more fun in my opinion lol. I rock a quick swap hand cannon and le monarque, its so satisfying
Awesome video
Thank you!
Glad to see my Bakris got the recognition it deserves
Love them so much, regular dodge feels awful in comparison. I’ll keep wearing a flayed captain’s face and get their fallen shift.
I love these vids! Extremely thorough, well scripted and great visuals! Castle content going strong! You will get where you deserve to be - and I’ll be here for the ride 😁👍
I recently fell in love with young ahamkaras spine - I rarely play hunter, but these with the six shooter goldie, the new IB sidearm and the trials of the nine pulse is extremely fun. Nice placing for those!
Thanks you Again Pete!
I love your dog too. Good doggo!!
As someone who’s been running foe tracer for seasons ever since season four I find it invaluable in crucible. Especially since I run handcannons and Scouts. It’s a lot better than what it was portrayed as but it takes a little creativity to use. Information is power depending on its use.
Other than that this list is well done. Top tier content my guy.
4:40 they work really well with Thorn. It lets you two-tap so often
You can already two-tap with Thorn on anyone with less than 6 resilience as long as you've picked up a Remnant. I feel like this is what you're actually experiencing.
This is a good list so far, but I think you massively underrate graviton forfeit w/top tree NS, it’s my go to combination this season
I will admit, every exotic in the game can be elevated with very specific, niche builds, like the one you mention. It then becomes tough to rank them all perfectly. I appreciate the feedback!
I used to run Knucklehead Radar a lot when I first got it around the launch of D2 and it was great for me when I was but a blueberry. I'm still a little blue here and there, especially in pvp but I've now become adept to utilizing Dragon's Shadow with pve builds and Wormhusk Crown in pvp
I’ve seen Hunters run Revenant with Frosstees equipped, it’s actually a pretty great build to use.
Great Video! But i thought it was missing a little clip from Cammys bulli boots video.
I always try to include what I can but also always forget some gems out there haha
Pls do this with Warlock too. Very informative Vid. Love ur content
Eventually I will once I feel I’m good enough to provide the proper info on them all 👍
@@CastleContent
I found wedding veil useful with bottom tree gunslinger: several hopeless battles where it's me and two enemies in elimination that I either won with point blank knife headshot, or drew by healing from knife kill and then trading with the other enemy
25:30 Finally! Someone else who uses Bad Juju! Thank you!
Why not just be unique?
Would you be willing to do a Warlock exotic tier list? These are super helpful! Thank you!
Eventually yeah but I want to get a handle on all of those first so I’m confident
@Castle Content the “more dodges than intended” line about Dance Machines in the TWAB was referencing a glitch.
You could do a setup where the Multi-Dodge perk would let you keep the last dodge charge it gives you after the timer ends. This would let you avoid having to wait another 9+ sec. for dodge to be off cooldown, and go back to using the Dance Machines perk on loop. It was unfeasible in PvP but would let you have 100% dodge uptime fairly easily in PvE with no cooldown, so it was patched.
Ohhhhh my god is this the one I saw from Cheese Forever?
@@CastleContent yessir that’s the one
I just came across your video, via recommended, and you are now my new main. Absolutely blown away, by your professionalism, knowledge, and ability to explain everything in a way everyone understands.
Thank you so much for the kind words; let me know if any other vids catch your eye - cheers!
This guy said “quick play” and a single tear shed from my eye
Great vid son
Lucky Pants, Fr0st-EE5 and Stomp-EE5 absolutely MELTS
Been running Assassin's Cowl on Revenant with good ol' Monte and invis is up pretty often
Heads up on oathkeepers. I know several very good bow players that swear by them for uptime. As a decent (not amazing) bow player myself just enabling perfect draw on LeMonarque for poison is enough to make them a must run.
One of the better comedy's. You should write for Netflix!
Great video but MAN that new thorn ornament is fire
one thing ill say about celestial; can one shot and kill through titan bubble. can be swappable for trials if you know its coming
The ornament for wormhusk is sick. I'm a menace, I never take it off.
Ophidia spathe is overlooked...it looks great with the right shader and double knives is great now for 3.0
I like niche exotics, but I almost never take off Dunemarchers. Looking forward to the Titan version.
Dude Geomag chaos meta was sick lol, but before there was geomag there were the original Shards, I remember getting back like 75%+ of my super energy when I popped when they first came out, it was sick! Of course this was in pve and I don' t think it was ever super crazy in pvp.
Quick reminder that utility kickstart now exists and rocking even the one means you will have 100% uptime on wraithmetal mail, same as what it was before it got stealth nerfed in beyond light. This also means you can get away with 50 mobility on hunters so you can focus your build elsewhere.
I never swap my exotic. I ALWAYS have stompies on. Only time I switch is when I’m running a night fall and I have on 6 shot goldy, I’ll switch to nighthawk. Either Frost-e55, or Stomp-e55 are always on. Because of this video now I understand these a little more so I think I’ll start playing around with the other exotics. I have ALL exotics on all my characters which is 1 of each. Only ones I don’t have are the ones released with Beyond Light. I could probably focus on getting better rolls, I didn’t really know the exotic rolls rolled with different perks, NEVER knew that, I was oblivious to it until when I came back to Destiny in Season of the Chosen I believe or Arrivals, I came back the last 3 weeks of the season before Ruineous Effigy came out. I quit back before they even released curse of Osiris and Warmind, so I missed out on a lot. I’ve been a Destiny player since Day ONE of D1. Then just got tired of the same thing over and over again but I’m happy I came back with all the content, I’m still playing catch up lmao
7:16 i believe these are either glitched or have been shadownerfed for this season. I use these on the regular for my pvp builds, and i usually run it with "the messenger" pulse rifle which used to proc the perk as long as i hit all three rounds of the burts, yet in this season it seems to require at least 4 bullets to hit for the perk to proc, which forces me to use vigilance wing or a different weapon in general just to be able to proc the perk. Very sad
Foetracer is waaay slept on. I can attribute a fair amount of kills each game with the tracking thanks to pairing with hawkmoon.
Halfway through. Love the video! And I like you and Gjerda a lot Castle. But I will NOT accept any Graviton Forfeit slander. 🙅🏻♂️ It’s the ULTIMATE “min/max” exotic. Think about it:
- You can run really low Recovery (in favour of Discipline or Intellect), and still get MASSIVE gains in Recov (like you shoot up to 9.5 Recov)
- If you’re aggressive and recharge your melee near enemies a lot, you can just swap to Marksman’s Dodge straight up
- Extra Invis time that’s ACTUALLY multiplicative (imagine using Mid Tree in Momentum, or Bottom in Trials, though I prefer Top Tree)
The only downside is, if you wanted a Graviton Forfeit Armor build that has 80-100 Mobility (100 w/ a Lightweight Weapon) / ~60-70 Resil / 70+ Discipline and 70+ Intellect, you’re gonna need good armour splits 🤷🏻♂️
I’ve been playing middle arcstrider since release and it has a big big problem: u can die from self dmg like antheus used to be. This bug never got fixed, and considered that middle arc is a super u can activate face to face to an enemy (the animation of the activation IS a deflect), sometimes happens to die from misadventure. When u die earlier, idk why but Raijus gives u back some super like u deactivate it. I’m not sure if it’s a bug but it’s really good.
Please do a warlock tier list please!
Will you do warlock tier list too?
Raiju’s Harness and Graviton Forfeit are my favorites.
Graviton Forfeit: looks really cool and, paired with top tree Nightstalker, enables me to stay out of bad situations in both PvP and PvE after using my dodge to escape.
Raiju’s Harness: looks awesome and is just convenient, especially in things like Mayhem when I can cancel and get the super back that much faster. And did I mention it looks awesome?
Edit: oh yeah, and Oathkeepers. They look really cool, and they make Le Monarque an absolute nuisance to the enemy team.
When I first got exotics I just chose whatever looked the coolest but now I'm using the frostees pretty much exclusively now since I got stasis just to be op in pve
Ophidea Spathe also reduces the time it takes to ready another charged weighted knife if you land a head shot with your first one.
I've been pairing shinobou's with le monarque and it's a lot of fun.
Ophidia spathe is amazing with the blade barrage knives in PVE, if you keep getting kills you practically have instant unlimited knives.
Had a guy at the tower named "THE HUSK STAYS ON" and well.. I wasn't let down upon inspection.
Been dragons shadow main since it dropped and don't really ever catch myself using my dodge before gunfights
I’ve been using the knuckle head radar with a box breathing hung jury in the crucible. Needless to say it’s a very strong combo allowing me to kill people across the map in 0.67 seconds while still retaining my radar to answer imminent threats. You should give it a try, it’s literally a turret build that rewards good aim.
That’s what I use as well, radar is the most important thing in this game and having it up during a gunfight is super powerful.
i have a friend that WILL NOT take off his box breathing hung jury. It gets annoying sometimes, but I understand why he won't use anything else.
I miss bones of eao, but with stompies out there it kinda has its niche filled to a degree
