for opening encounter, don't shoot last node until you have completed all other nodes for each 4 sections. Shooting last node spawns supplicants so by saving the last node for all 4 at a time, you avoid supplicants. For ascend spire, killing hydra spawns supplicants so your decision on whether u hate hydras more or supplicants more
Hydras can nuke me from as far as they want, supplicants can’t. Hydras will take a while to kill, supplicants won’t. Turns out I hate both, so I’ll just go psycho on both of them anyway.
I *love* the fact that you included spawn triggers in this video. It's the single most important piece of information and a lot of guides miss it. Great work!
Solo flawlessing the dungeon: easy Solo flawlessing the dungeon while using what you actually want to use: fucking insanely hard Mark my words. I'm going to solo this dungeon with stormcaller only. No witherhoard. No cataclysmic.
Of note: supplicants don't explode on death under any circumstance, not just disintegration damage. It's stressful, but you can melee kill them in a pinch on hammer titan or even arc hunter.
Can confirm They visually sound like they explode when you kill them, and have an animation that looks like it too, but they don't physically do any damage
As you said at the end, lots of this stuff comes down to skill(skills that I desperately need to improve). However the spawn information about the adds and the little details that are less apparent are really helpful, so thanks. Hopefully I can get a solo, and later solo flawless of this dungeon eventually.
@@Hefergon. pit is a good start. you probably don't have to worry about dps because its old and power creep, but you get the hang of like how to keep your cool navigating parkour sections and managing add spawns while managing the weird gimmick for a dungeon (and the emblem for SF is dope)
@@HebgryI agree. Pit of heresy is the easiest one. The hardest part of that one is the chamber of suffering, but once you figure out how to deal isn’t it, even that isn’t that bad. Then I would do grasp of avarice, and then prophecy which out of the ones I’ve done is the hardest. I don’t know how duality fits in there because I took a break when season of the haunted started and just came back a few weeks ago. From my experience with Spire, I think it shouldn’t be too hard, especially later in the season once people are a higher power level. The trickiest part of this one will be the final boss, and having enough patience to go through more damage phases than the bosses of the other dungeons, as none of those ones took me more than three or four phases.
@@Hefergon. this may sound crazy especially since most people will say pit but for me I went 1: Grasp 2: Prophecy 3 Pit I think this is just a personal problem but that encounter on pit with the ball deposits after ogre encounter killed me way too much
I kinda dig agers on the last boss. Every shatter staggers him, so he ends up standing in place not shooting. It’s not great damage, but it ends up being pretty nice support for less experienced teammates, where it keeps the boss from rushing them down so they can do damage. This guide is great, one thing I will say though is restoration is super helpful in the last boss. Using a dps agers build, I had no trouble with the first boss, but during the last boss, it’s difficult to have a moment to breath where you can heal up, and one moment of the boss catching you out of position would mean death, which really wasn’t fun. Thanks for the solid content!
Ran the dungeon last night with a fireteam and being the only solar class I had more than enough restoration to keep myself alive when my teammates were fighting for their lives if I was unable to throw a healing grenade their way.
@@NoVACorpsGaming yeah, that’s what I’ve been using. Trying to solo the final boss though, it would have been an 11 phase with the damage I was doing. I’m not the highest light and I don’t have any of the dps artifact mods, but it still felt on the low side of good dps. Solo runs really need some absolutely cracked dps in order to not feel miserable. Like, I can do about a sixth of the first boss’s health with no debuff using agers (font+HEF), which is great on a team of 3, where there will be a debuff and time extension for a really solid damage phase. But solo, it turns into a 6-7 phase slog, where I’m just wishing I was doing more damage. I really should have been using other setups, but I really don’t feel like setting up armor with the right stats while dim is down ;-;
@@Rios-ov3xi from what I’m seeing 5-6 phases seems to be most peoples cap while doing it solo and without those mods at the end of the artefact and then for the last boss, you’re looking at a 20-25 minute boss phase which is kind of absurd at the minute! Definitely gonna wait until I have more power and maybe one or two of those mods. Either way, good luck out there guardian! Sounds like you’re doing great.
for the first boss, when hes about to explode youre meant to drop down into one of the holes infront/behind you. prevents any knockback and can get up as close to him as you want for dps :D
A better primary to use is voltshot After the first damage phase, u can easily proc voltshot shot and tag a hydra. One wither shot and it dies while jolting nearby ads
A suggestion for Akelous: instead of jumping below to get font of might on the goblins below, breaking the head of a goblin before damage phase will make him chase you to your damage spot. Killing a goblin immediately in front of you will save a lot of time. This is not something I used during my run because I had not thought of it until later, but it works very nicely for all my regular runs.
This solo flawless is wayyyy easier than duality. Not even close really. I did it on my second ever run right after getting my first clear. Theres isnt really anything in particular that can kill you. Duality has physics, bugs and its mechanics are a lot harder and the consequeces of failing any of the mechanics are a lot worse. The only thing making this dungeon hard is that the bosses have a shitton of health. I didnt even really set out to do flawless bc it dont have any of the 5th column artifact mods unlocked yet but got it anyway.
to be honest, dodging shots is really the only way to do it. He fires kind of slow, but without well, it's tough. That would be a case i may suggest rockets on, since you could fire while hopping around.
@@belliebun4529 would recommend a hothead with either clown cartridge or autoloading with a special weapon. You could also try merciless, since that thing shreds pretty hard - just make sure you stay somewhat close to get max damage
@@belliebun4529 if you can't get a hothead then try crafting a good palmyra or a red herring. if you have the patience for it then you can also farm nightmare containment and sever for a bump in the night with chill clip which is a surprisingly efficient option in the heavy slot
Hey, do you have any idea if cellular suppression works with echo of domineering? Could basically grant an ikelos SMG infinite reload, and maybe could even proc volt shot if echo of domineering counts as a reload unlike transversive steps.
For the final boss i'd recommend the starfire build with a rocket launcher with demo. Worked better for me since the crit spot isn't that big and i often missed shots cuz of the flinch. Good luck everyone😁👍🏽
Can I recommend Forerunner for the Harpy boss? Because like, I can clear eyes almost instantly with it. It one shots eyes, and it has 12 rounds, one round for each eye. Even if you miss one and have to reload, you need to reload anyways so you can hit bait and switch for cataclysmic users.
The final boss, if you're a titan, you can one shot the boss randomly while his shield is up with a storm grenade and rapidly passing jolt between a goblin and the boss
How well does the sunbracers build hold up with icarus dash instead of touch of flame? I've never really considered using the sunbracers build because I don't like heat rises, but icarus dash would certainly help to make the movement less frustrating.
Still works really well to the point that I stopped noticing the difference. Im sure it does less damage or applies less scorch or something but in a practical sense it doesn't really change the function of the build or its effectiveness
Just a PSA for starfire warlocks who don’t wanna die but still want infinite nades with empowering rift, just run a combo of heal thyself and well of life. Personally I run mine with seeking wells, elemental ordinance and elemental charge. As long as you’re getting grenade kills you will have nonstop healing.
Just posting the link to the Sunbracers build video because I didn’t see it in the description: ruclips.net/video/MBvEzaZ03nU/видео.html Great vid, and good luck to anyone going for the solo flawless. It’s definitely challenging, but totally achievable if you put your mind to it.
I've honestly found akelous to be way easier on stasis with karnstein, ager's, and clown cartridge rocket. just takes way longer to do. persys is still a bastard though.
Imo this dungeon solo flawless isn’t hard at all. About on par with pit for me. I think most people just need to improve their situational awareness and evasive movement. Once I focused on those things the final boss was a piece of cake. Seeing as game difficulty has been non exists t in recent seasons, I’m enjoying bungie forcing us to practice skills we don’t need that often.
Of All the dungeons This dungeon is just a miserable experience to solo. The final boss just has way too much health for a solo run. It’s pretty easy otherwise but it just gets tiring at the end
If you’re trying to do this, please don’t waste your time trying to use sunbracers lmao. If you want to run an actual “build” use star fire as it basically serves the same purpose just 10x better because double exploding fusion nades are way better than solar nades, and while you can’t really use them for damage on harpy they’re at least actually helpful during the in between phases, and if you want just general survivabilty over a specific build, just throw on karnsteins with healing nades to help keep you alive. Also if you’re doing it this season, wait until you get weakened clear and the solo fire team mod, it’s doable without but you’re kind of just wasting your time not taking advantage of a free plus 30% damage.
i found akelous a lot easier than persys personally. big crit spot. low ad density. no supplicants. spawns are trigger based and deterministic. With persys ads spawn the moment you clear an entire wave and the supplicants are really fucking aggressive meaning you're constantly either killing them, spawning more, or baiting them and jumping over them, meaning more spawn eventually anyways. my solo flawless took me an hour and a half and an hour of that was JUST the persys encounter.

this dungeon is just a patience game imo, it's not super tricky or challenging as far as ads or mechanics are concerned. just solid dps
Hunter survivability 😞
@@oh_for is extremely good with the right Arc build.
@@juddgeshredd that’s true, I’m mainly talking during the dps phases, idk, it’s specific
I *love* the fact that you included spawn triggers in this video. It's the single most important piece of information and a lot of guides miss it. Great work!
Solo flawlessing the dungeon: easy
Solo flawlessing the dungeon while using what you actually want to use: fucking insanely hard
Mark my words. I'm going to solo this dungeon with stormcaller only. No witherhoard. No cataclysmic.
"The most important weapon to have in this dungeon is cataclysmic."
Whelp, fuck me i guess lmao.
I flawlessed it with using submission/lorentz/stormchaser. Just took alittle longer against the wyvern boss
Of note: supplicants don't explode on death under any circumstance, not just disintegration damage. It's stressful, but you can melee kill them in a pinch on hammer titan or even arc hunter.

I recommend you running other dungeons (especially grasp and prophesy) solo. It may be tough on your first run but improves your skill tremendously

My man's coming through with another awesome ass guide! 😎
8 minute in depth guide is my kind of in depth guid.
During boss fight remember to complete the last circut after the boss entered the room, or it’ll reset the yellow wires.
I almost got depression trying to solo flawless Titan this dungeon for 12 hours straight on day one
For your mental health, it's OK to admit day one solo flawless is a bad idea.
I did it with ToM, retraced path with subsistence/golden tri and bait and sw cata works amazing with lorelys and baby hammer
For my mental health I’m just gonna wait until next reset when I’m 1590-1600 something
How would you keep alive in the final boss with a Tether Hunter? It’s kinda tough to stay invisible while shooting it.

Step 1, play as a Warlock
There are no more steps
No more steps, just floating.
I NEED THE MACTIS CROSSOVER
If I'm being honest this is probably my favorite dungeon, right in front of grasp, then duality

Look up xmultyx. He did it on all stasis subclasses, including titan
i know that going to orbit ruins a flawless run, however i did not know it negates a solo run. rip to the five hours i just wasted
