So a quick tip. The damage of the actual multiple solar nade centers DOES NOT STACK, similar to multiple Witherhoard shots. However, by throwing one solar nade directly at a target and then multiple others around the target, the touch of flame little fire balls with increase your damage, and also give you a larger radius.
I really like the restoration x2 tech though. If you didnt know, landing all fire bolts from incinerator snap on an enemy will cause an ignition with ember of ashes. Incinerator snap and pheonix dive (enhanced) with embers of ashes has enough to ignite an enemy. Since the last source of damage before the ignition was melee, sunbracers will proc. This will also trigger and instantly increase the timer for rest x2 upon landing with enhanced pheonix dive. Pop on a sword that has incandecent, and you're an unkillable tank with rest x2 with the aspect that increases duration with kills.
With heat rises you can have infinite restoration x2. Works as following: - eat nade - jump up and use snap on enemies - press phoenix dive immediately after snapping so you land on the ground roughly when enemies die - you gain restoration x2 with 7-12 sec. duration What you need: Heat rises, snap, ember of empyrean, phoenix dive So I recommend swapping between icarus dash and touch of flame but having heat rises equipped at all time. Use touch of flame when you need the damage, if you want the movement go with icarus dash. Also you can use strafe glide for it feels the best with heat rises active and you will have that active all the time.
^^^^^ Note this is optimal medium end content and sometimes on slightly higher end due to restoration 2x and cure always being up so you won’t die as long as you have both up unless you take too much burst which is rare and you would have well for.
This was what I was using and it definitely wasn't as good for me. I died way more often. Relying on orbs+grenade kills to generate consistent healing is working much better for me.
@@Coonazz791 a few weeks. I had a pretty garbage set of armor with random/low stats, so that may have been part of it, I changed it a bit and was able to survive just fine without phoenix dive. Of course then arc became the new warlock meta, so it doesn't really matter now.
Not using heat rises with Phoenix dive is out right criminal. With heat rises, you gain restoration 2x and scorch targets for 40(+20). Scorching a target with your melee and then igniting that scorch will count as a melee kill for sunbracers. So the combo is basically, activate heat rises, snap and dive. Everything explodes, you gain resto 2x and sunbracers activates. You can do that until the sun burns out as long an your can set an ignition with your melee. Which will become much easier next season with the snap fix.
Ive been wondering why my sunbracers have been having issues all season. My team keeps asking me to run my sunbracers and they dont understand it's a coin toss if they proc or not. Thank you also for posting the dim link. It earned you a sub. Some streamers dont post it at all and i usually skip the video. As a Warlock main I love any effort to improve my toys.
With sunbracers, I've been landing nades on walls and ceilings for the lava blobs. Serious damage in the process, as well can cut off enemies at doorways. The glassway gm is a good example
i will add, that heat rises when you do phoenix dive you get 3 seconds of restoration x2, and if you can get that going, you get EVEN more healing. and eating a nade heals you with heat. but your trade off is getting rid of ici dash. so use at your own risk.
For sure! There are multiple ways you can play this class, I just prefer the movement of Icarus Dash personally. With the build we put together, we were able to have easily survivability and chain abilities no problem!
I'm a new player and I struggled with this game until I got these bracers. I have Starfire protocol but I love my Sunbracers. I definitely feel like a glass cannon
Starfire is such a stationary build you have to be in your rift for it to be effective . With sunbracers you can run from damage phase get a snap kill and spam boss with solar grenades. If your team keeps killing your ads than that’s a communication problem. I take sunbracers into raids/dungeons all it takes is a “hey leave an ad or two alive at damage phase for me” and you’re golden
Swap in Heat rises in for dash and the fragment that extends radiant/restoration instead of more scorch. Proc sun bracers, eat first grenade, phoenix dive and throw grenades and have never ending restoration x2.
Cooking the unstop? Above with the puns! Love it! I was tired of starfire when needing to run well with my clan for raids as well. Glad for another epic choice!
Use a glaive and karnsteins on any class for infinite health and great add clear. That is the most unkilable thing I've ever used and have used it for 700 master caiatl clears and is goated
I’ve been using that glaive/karnstein since last season while my mates say glaives suck but my survivablity rocks while they shoot from behind cover - with yellow health bars its not going to work as well, but a well placed grenade before going in with the glaive does the trick 😅
@@MultiTaskZA there's tons of applications you can use winterbite for freezing and you can use a restoration nade with lubras ruin for infinite restoration with graverober and swash for a basically perminant 33 percent damage incrase
I've been maining Sunbracers since they were Sunbreakers, their rise allows me to keep them on no matter what and not feel embarrassed or the need to switch to something else.
Sunbracers will never be Starfire. It works fairly well in solo content but if you are in a fireteam with other guardians…good luck getting Sunbracers to proc on a regular basis. No where near as reliable as Starfire but we had a good run with Starfire and it’s time to move on.
To be honest a lot of the footage in this video is from helps I was doing on stream in Root of Nightmares. I was able to spam abilities just fine. BUT, you can definitely get your ability rotations messed up by someone killing something you’re looking to use your snap melee on.
@@AboveDestiny to be fair it’s easy to get it to proc in something as ad dense as a raid, if you try doing a nf or any other content it’s gonna be pretty hard unless you solo, which sunbracers does a pretty good job at
To be fair, in a known fireteam I am perfectly fine calling out an ad I want to proc on. LFG, maybe not, but even then I haven’t found it to be too bad. If I’m running with Rambo, sure, but good luck finding Rambo on LFG consistently.
I’m not trying to be ugly or disrespectful. I mean this in the absolute nicest way possible. You and a bunch of other RUclips guys have the same exact cadence in the way you speak on RUclips. There’s no way you speak like this in person, I personally think your normal speaking voice, which at times I can hear come out, I’d more than fine…it’s better. Your content is great so keep it up. I wish you’d drop the act though.
Ember of Benevolence is a good replacement for Resolve, it makes it so if you apply select buffs to allies, it regenerates all abilities. The only downside is that it's ally reliant so you can't really play solo on everything. But it's a good idea I think.
One trick i found for this build: if you consume your grenade with heat rises, hit an enemy with your melee, then kill them with the empowered phoenix dive, it will count as a melee kill instead of a PD kill. It's not super necessary, but if you're having trouble getting kills with your melee, it may help a bit.
Heat rises with the dive is definitely amazing for the additional scorch! There are for sure multiple cool ways to approach this class. With that said, the fragments I recommended actually allow you to switch without having to use heat rises, which I think is pretty cool!
They should’ve taken the nerf in steps. 10% instead of 20% and then adjusted from there if it needed more tuning. 20% all the way down to 2.5% is way too much. I understand that it’s been overpowered for a while, but they’ve gone and killed another exotic instead of letting it keep its niche and tuning how effective it is so it’s not the Jack of All Trades.
@@AboveDestiny Starfire made well more than the obligatory support role. Now it will not be better than Lunafaction boots or boots of the assembler in raid DPS phases. Sunbracers and necrotic grips beat it for add clear. Contraverse will probably help more with major damage and champs in GMs. Just can’t really justify it for anything anymore when it’s going all the way to 16 seconds per grenade (maybe down to about 12 with max discipline, but running kickstarts will eat all your surges so that’s out of the question)
@@ForTheViolence it could’ve been reduced to 7 or 8 seconds per grenade and still kept its DPS role. Sunbracers are already coming into the meta. This just makes it so there’s always one or two definitive picks instead of letting every exotic excel in its own role. Which is how we end up in these situations of “_____ is sucking all the air out of the room” well yeah, because everything gets nerfed into oblivion as soon as it starts to get a lot of use. Don’t make it irrelevant. Tune it to the role it’s being used for and then reduce the potency until it feels good. Don’t kill it outright.
Welp, I'm glad I decided not to spoil myself with Starfire after all these years except for a handful of times. Probably going to continue rolling with Sunbracers, Verity's Brow, and even Dawn Chorus builds for Solar. Enjoy branching out, fellow Warlock mains!
Personally i think Felwinters Helm is an underrated choice especially on void. Not only do you weaken but you also suppress. You can also make nearby enemies volatile while also going invis and healing yourself depending on what finisher armor charge build you run.
@@Metarortiz Not everything will be used in boss battles. I just mean for pure survivability in content thats not quite GM but not quite free roam EDZ. Like a raid or dungeon is where it really shines. Even matchmade seasonal stuff its very good.
Trying this field now, looks like it’s been nerfed after only three months. Normal grenade region, regardless of whether or not you get a kill with snap.
Combine Snap with Phonix dive and it will kill any red-bar enemy, even GM. This means you can use it in high level content. This is the hardest part. And if you use heat rises you can get restoration x2.
I would like to mention that sunbracers is actually BETTER than starfire in single-target DPS. With touch of flame, the blobs of lava do CRAZY damage. You put one solar grenade on the target and then throw the rest at the ceiling. When the grenades are on the ceiling, the lava blobs pour down in a focused spot and do CRAZY damage. Don’t believe me, check youtube!
I use Monte Carlo with my sunbracers so I don't have to worry about too many melee mods. Sunbracers were my first warlock exotic and I made a 3 Stat over 100 build and my sunbracers build is just stupid

This was just the gear I had at the time, definitely would recommend high strength if possible. Though I will say, with the build setup we had I had zero issues with ability uptime whatsoever.
3 months playing, ive gotten 5 starfire's, all terribly rolled, usually with 20 strength and terrible dist. 4 veritiy's, also terribly rolled. 1 pair of geomags, and a Nazarecs sin. Ive run i dont know how many lost sectors ive run, and seen neither hide nor hair or Necro Grips, no sunbracers after every nightfall, gambit, crucible, or daily runs. At this point, im operating under the perspective of "these are drops only available in certain regions, so ill never see one".
Is it me, or does Bungie just want us to play the game the way they want us to play. And not the way we would like to. I'm not against nerfing op builds, but what's the point of nerfing it to the point that no one will ever use it.
I was saying this to my friend the other day .. the problem with this game is they always want to force a meta … why can’t multiple things be meta .. it’s even worse for PvP you force people out of stompees now we will be plagued with young ahamkaras.. starfire was broken yes but it was very fun nerf it to 10 percent don’t destroy it and force sunbracers meta
I agree. It’s almost like things under the radar for them, are used in the meta for a be try long time, and then absolutely gutted to the point where that playstyle just isn’t an option anymore
Is it just me or did he miss out on what armor mods he used for his chest I'd like to know as I'm reaching for either font of endurance or charged up and can't decide?
Sunbracers was nowhere near as fun and reliable as Starfire due to having to proc it which can be annoying to at times even in raids and GMS Sometimes when you Proc it your teamates killed all the Ads anyway or there are not that many nearby or all the ads are too tanky. Also I liked how you needed to use an empowering rift for Starfire it switches up the gameplay a bit because 90% of the time rift is kinda useless.
Are actually using touch of flame and icarus dash? Wouldn't touch of flame and heat rising be better? Because if you used heat rising with phoenix dive you get a X2 restoration buff and if you replaced ember of resolve with ember of empyrean you would get an infinite restoration X2 buff and an infinite radiance buff as long as thing keep dying which they will you would also get melee energy from heat rises. So for me heat rises is far superior than icarus dash is this build.

it's been a great addclear or Solo build for a while. Best part is that it doesn't debuff you with -100 fashion pts like Starfire does.
Starfire isnt really ugly. I also find it funny that it looks almost exactly the same as iron companion robes but nobody complains about that.
"Starfire isn't really ugly" 😂
Nice joke. 🤣🤣🤣

Phoenix Dive also applies scorch while heat rises is active, which can guarantee a kill if snap doesn't get them for some reason.

This was just the gear I had at the time, definitely would recommend high strength if possible. Though I will say, with the build setup we had I had zero issues with ability uptime whatsoever.
No dim link??
Sorry brother was on an airplane when this was posted! Will be adding it in a few minutes 👍🏻
i despise how essential well is, i just want to play void warlock.
What mods do you put on your chest armor
Just resist mods!
I personally think the nerf was way too hard. Oh well. Time to experiment with different builds.
I agree, I suppose we’ll have to wait and see though. Hope it’s not unusable.
9:01 How did you reduce ashes to assets and solar surge cost?
It was from an artifact mod from one of the previous season
@@Shiroyasha830 wait so how was he still using them ? Cause my season of the deep mods became inactive after start of season 22.
@@Toasted_Buttons the video was recorded during the time the mods were available
@@Shiroyasha830 ah okay
3 months playing, ive gotten 5 starfire's, all terribly rolled, usually with 20 strength and terrible dist.
4 veritiy's, also terribly rolled. 1 pair of geomags, and a Nazarecs sin. Ive run i dont know how many lost sectors ive run, and seen neither hide nor hair or Necro Grips, no sunbracers after every nightfall, gambit, crucible, or daily runs.
At this point, im operating under the perspective of "these are drops only available in certain regions, so ill never see one".
Is it me, or does Bungie just want us to play the game the way they want us to play. And not the way we would like to. I'm not against nerfing op builds, but what's the point of nerfing it to the point that no one will ever use it.
I was saying this to my friend the other day .. the problem with this game is they always want to force a meta … why can’t multiple things be meta .. it’s even worse for PvP you force people out of stompees now we will be plagued with young ahamkaras.. starfire was broken yes but it was very fun nerf it to 10 percent don’t destroy it and force sunbracers meta
I agree. It’s almost like things under the radar for them, are used in the meta for a be try long time, and then absolutely gutted to the point where that playstyle just isn’t an option anymore
Is it just me or did he miss out on what armor mods he used for his chest I'd like to know as I'm reaching for either font of endurance or charged up and can't decide?
Go for whatever you'd like there! I just went with resist mods.
You lost me at, “I wouldn’t use this in Grandmaster nitefall…”
✌🏻
Sunbracers was nowhere near as fun and reliable as Starfire due to having to proc it which can be annoying to at times even in raids and GMS Sometimes when you Proc it your teamates killed all the Ads anyway or there are not that many nearby or all the ads are too tanky. Also I liked how you needed to use an empowering rift for Starfire it switches up the gameplay a bit because 90% of the time rift is kinda useless.
I'm still having trouble with the snap. I've been aiming at their feet and it still makes me charge them. Is there a setting to help this?
You can rebind your powered melee (ie Incinerator Snap) to a different mouse button/key than your unpowered melee.
How do I get solar melee kill grant unlimited solar grenade energy
Are actually using touch of flame and icarus dash? Wouldn't touch of flame and heat rising be better? Because if you used heat rising with phoenix dive you get a X2 restoration buff and if you replaced ember of resolve with ember of empyrean you would get an infinite restoration X2 buff and an infinite radiance buff as long as thing keep dying which they will you would also get melee energy from heat rises. So for me heat rises is far superior than icarus dash is this build.
You can use either or. It's not like the build revolves around Icarus dash; it's just a preference.
@@ChibiOnVR is it just a preference when heat rises makes the build a lot better?
What mods would you use in your chest Armor?
Just resist mods!
Am i the only one who didn't see chest mods used?
Idk I’m loving dawn chorus and you don’t have 2 rely on getting a melee kill
u didnt do chest mods
Good luck using this in GMs. Viable for low end content but most definitely not very good in endgame content.
