On the stream he basically said he can’t ban les because les is on his raid team. He temporarily banned him and revoked his mod privileges because he got a shorter ban than other people who lost.
Damn, no kidding. I really enjoyed Dawn Chorus when it released, but the nerfs made me go back to Sunbracers, but I've always kept a decently rolled DC on my warlock just in case. Looks like I'll have to try it out again.
@@lordgrub12345 They might just be thinking about how Dawn Chorus used to be, because it was straight up garbage before the buff. Or at least, it was garbage after solar 3.0, no idea if it was ever good before that tbh.
@@chrisb.2028basically you ad clear vex in waves and do side objectives like earn heavy ammo, defend a spire, take down high-health targets, or charge a portal into the vex network.

That's how I've been getting to level 50 legend lately. Is aeon souls with the third recently changed exotic selection. If I take that off trying to get to level 50 I cannot do it with my team
Drang with incandescent and wellspring paired with dragons breath and Dawn chorus and whatever primary special you want is actually insane. My drang has over 15 thousand kills on it and most of that is from this season.
@@Wad3y I urge you to try Dawn chorus, even with a well build. It's benefits to scorch are insane, and in onslaught you get your super all the time from team orb generation and just getting kills. If you put on just one heavy handed mod, you'll have your super up A LOT. Not as much as Phoenix, but the trade off is 5 times as many ignitions, so you won't need your well as often. It's a lot more fun in my opinion, and it looks cooler 😎
Yes the tormentor can move the turrent and if it moves it into the ADU the machine will register it as an enemy. I have a clip where we hit level 50 but before that we had a tormentor to fight before the portal. Tormentor got a hold of our blueberry and unleashed his blow onto him when he was grabbed and blew the turrent into the ADU we went into the portal and as soon we were about to rally the flag we failed cuz of the turrent being in the ADU.
Les' build needs the buried bloodline instead of the graviton, its exactly what ive been using. More stopping power for tankier enemies. Can also run a round robin or rufus' fury in primary for champions and unraveling rounds and threadlings. This is the way.
2nd build needed actual good onslaught weapons like GL and machine gun amd switch for boss wave. The first build no doubt was the better performer but it seems a little weapon roll dependant, not everyone has a strand soecial GL godroll.
The problem with achieving HOIL’s effect on warlock is hoil rewards ability usage with both more ability potency/damage AND more ability energy. Nezarec’s sin locks you into using void weapons and doesn’t have the feedback loop of rewarding abilities with more abilities. There’s a lot of weapon-based ad-clear downtime to get those kills to activate the exotic. Even at its best it still doesn’t have the same effectiveness, ease, or efficiency that HOIL has.
My version of the Strand/Graviton build; I use Scatter Signal or Tusk of the Boar in the top slot, Cataphract, Semiotician, or Retrofit Escapade for heavy, and adjust my surge mods accordingly. I think the shotgun was a significant oversight, and while yes, technically Apex Predator is the best rocket for damage, doesn’t matter if you can’t get Bait & Switch going.
Les used a similar build to what I've been running, except I use scatter signal and edge transit on voidwalker, and it goes insane. Tons of overcharged vortex grenades, vorpal rounds, graviton for ad clear, scatter for majors, edge for mini and full bosses.
Les's void build was alright i could see where he was coming from when hes trying to accelerate the super gains and its not a bad idea but in my opinion it needs a bit more void damage output maybe Retrofit Escapade or some other void heavy in the heavy slot would have helped the build out and a little more ability regen would of helped as well .
@34:34 truth, plus the first build not utilizing heavy slot better out side of the boss, sure it worked but not used enough (task or boar and super was its main stay). For both builds Giving em an A/b listing. - or + based on the situation . Mothyards will be a different monster . Les knew what had to be done lol.
For Les's build, i would try to find a decent void rocket. that way when you get the huge groups suspended, you could just send a rocket in and still get the Nezerac proc instead of waiting for the GravLance to tickle the chunky enemies down.
@@bull3t209 that would be the worst place to test. The question isn't "what single raid boss could be one phased" it was "how many and which could be one phased" Atheon probably would be a one phase. But it isn't the most mind-blowing because, as you said, he takes more ability damage.
It does, but Deconstruct helps you save so much ammo that you can afford perfectly fine to fire it two or three times in a row with no problem, so I still think it's the best perk combo.
Use Necrotic Grips and Thorn, rocket sidearm, and a rocket launcher with the artifact perks that give you overload. You get your grenade back plenty fast and do more killing than Graviton because the poison also procs from Arcane Needle. You get Mindspun suspends plenty and more add clear, plus all three champs covered. The only weakness is tormentors but Thorn is a reasonable substitute for an auto.
Eyes of Tomorrow + Precious Scars solar titan for ad waves. Swap to pyro or yeet titan with dps heavy of choice for boss room. 1 person with Eyes of Tomorrow can solo a spawn point so you can have 2 people running EoT and the third protecting the ADU from anything that gets through or teleports randomly.
Have you ever thought to yourself, “my build is absolutely carrying this fireteam”? Many guardian believe that. Which is why we started this series build battles. You see coming over to our twitch channel and submitting your build will immediately put you in a one on one with someone else who submits their build. Whether it’s pvp or pve. Whether playing as a solo player or with a team. Your builds will go head to head with others and you too will know where your build stands. If you win you get 3000 silver! If you lose you get banned from this stream and the people who decide which build is the most potent is you! Welcome to build battles!
For the waves I use Tusk of the Boar, Sunshot and Hullabaloo. For boss fights I switch to Supremacy and Dragons Breath. Using Void tether build with rigs boots.
I got to say, the longer you played with Les' build, the better I liked it. I think you got better with it as time went by. Maybe the skill gap was much bigger than the, relatively simple play loop of the Dawnblade build.
finishers near a turret can also move it, especially the scythe one. it can ruin your run if the turrent lands inside the ADU circle as it will register as an enemy and ultimately kill your ADU.
The Braytech Rocket with Destabilising Rounds is pretty good for add clear. Similar deal to what Les was going for with Graviton really, it can easily take out most adds then the beefier targets get the Volatile Explosions making it easier to clean them up.
Les’ build should probably swap out for Supercluster since you’d be able to get unraveling rounds with the artifact perk (unless they add a third enemy type, is only barrier/unstop or barrier overload)
The strand, Nezerac's/Graviton Lance is actually a nasty build. I've been using similar for a while. Not as great for harder content though where things take a lot more of a beating.
I'm surprised there has not been a whole lot of Felwinter's Helm. It has the same problem as Whisper, both are incredibly strong on what they can *theoretically* do, problem being that there's straight up not a single place in the game where you could take full advantage of them. In Onslaught is where Felwinter's Helm can finally shine, we just had to wait until literally one season away from Destiny's ending to finally have exactly *one* activity where this exotic can actually do it's thing.
Ive been loving Pyrogale Gauntlets with Monte Carlo: since Monte doesnt require kills, just damage to reduce Melee cooldown, it can put in some serious work in Onslaught
I use stasis warlock with osiomancy gloves and max discipline. Wish keeper, disorienting void special gl with auto loading, and a void heavy gl with spike and auto loading. Triple void reserves. Never reload, always trapping or freezing. It literally changes the whole pace of legend.
Sounds fun, but what's the reasoning behind Wish-Keeper over Verglas Curve? both are CC bows but Verglas would synergize a lot more with the subclass and the artifact.
now that i think of it, the second strand build could actually be used with any subclass combination. arc would probably be the most interesting with a voltshot gun and crown of tempests. i would also make a case for secand filaments, since using your rift with it grants you devour. sure you cant extend it but its still very powerful.
You didnt use the build right! And i am not referring the exotics, the strand subclass buil: you consume your grenade then use your malee (you didnt use it at all)!
@@thif4722 I have. And I've done damage rotations before. I'm just not very good at them. And bro didn't make a mistake either. Kept track of everything. Knew exactly when to switch to graviton for bait and switch. Not everyone is doing raids every damn week.
If you replaced Graviton with Buried Bloodline in that strand build it might be okay. Coldheart and 'those' booties might make an even better pair for using tangles like that.
I made a bill that I didn't realize it was so popular on RUclips. It's that stasis one with those stasis gauntlets on warlock. Except I don't use the stasis Trace rifle. I use travelers chosen
When cross starts playing Les’ build, he’s saying he kinda woulda helped more for ability regeneration, meanwhile look at his melee charge going up crazy fast 😂
What about Buried Bloodline instead of GravLance? Devour on StrandLock for survivability and extra nade energy + Nez's Sin for increase ability regen you lose a bit of ad clear power but i think as long as you maintain weaver's trance (which should be hella easy with devour feeding nade energy + nez sin ability regen) you should be able to control the crowd to some extent + weaken stronger enemies/bosses from BB's catty. the only thing worrying is the ammo economy i guess thoughts?
@@charliefielke721buried bloodline does not kill the suspended enemies since its single target one kill from graviton will suspend and cosmology will kill the suspended targets thats the point of the build
Ive been running a gl build too with : tusknof the boar envious assasin chain reaction, loreley titan, sunshot, but with a hvy gl. Edge transit w envious assasin & destabilizing rounds, been doing almost twice as many kills as the other players in fire team
Honestly, the Strand build is better. I would have used as heavy the Commemoration machine gun and maybe Tusk of the Boar in the kynetic slot but Scatter Signal is very solid too. Keep in mind Cross died and he almost had same amount of kills with this build, many waves before the boss room, so he would have got around 1k kills, which is very similar to Mantics build with Strand using Wishkeeper and The Swarmers. Just let the Flood kill and suspend for you, generating orbs left, right and center. Interesting damage with Dawn Chorus vs Tormentors, those ignitions were hitting it hard.
Cross the point of nezarec isn't for the regular abilities but specifically for super abilities. If you take a look at your super meter it jumps up like crazy but you rarely ever used your super
The void build seems like a good idea, however since the suspending burst from Weavers Trance counts as grenade kills, I assume that's why the ability regen doesn't seem great, because that damage is getting kills instead of Graviton Lance.
Right needed to have firepower and ashes to assets. And the the pickup orbs reduces grenade cooldown one I have this build and he made like half the orbs.
Imagine not using skyburners girth instead of sunshit more range, scorch on hit, can be used to chain ignitions on higher health targets, the better 150rpm of the two
I feel like Les's build intent wasn't suspension, it was needles. Unfortunately, needles aren't that strong on warlock. They really need to buff the needle ability to be on par with pocket singularity and celestial fire. In theory, you're supposed to be getting kills with graviton lance to refuel your needles but the regeneration time is so low and the output is so minimal, its just not good. I do see the vision though.
I wonder why Cross doesn't aim Dragonsbreath at the legs of enemies?? It's affect sprays from the ground like a geyser. Use it to burn off their butts.
No one running Mountain Top!?!? I thought it was the UTIMATE grenade launcher to have. I just got my first shinny Mountain Top and not overly impressed. I'm still slaying with Salvager's Salvo with Spike, Demolitionist, Chain Reaction. Will still keep trying to get a better role with MT. And if you are running Warlock, everyone expects you to use Solar with Well of Radiance.
I’m thinking for the boss rooms switch off of tusk and run KT Rewind Supremacy or Firing Line Succession with Dragons, or even overflow control burst Fusion for the Wave 50 boss since he’s more mobile.
The suspend build with Swarmers that Mactics showcased from a community member of his is much better than this Nezzy Sin build and does what it tries to do. At least there you get threadlings and suspend at the same time which leads to ridiculous ad clear. Also Ashes to Assets does work when consuming the shackle grenade so it's better than hands on.
Graviton lance just doesn't have the fire power it used to. It can't consistently get the kills to proc sin. Maybe swap it out for something with destabilizing rounds and put the exotic somewhere else, maybe the one that drops the debuffs I don't have it so I'm not sure what the name is
anyone else feel super weirded out by a Rift icon on Solar Warlock? I'm never off Phoenix Dive. The image makes me so uncomfortable LOL also Deconstruct on Tusk still can work in that "buggy" state we had before - body shots STILL count for two hits, so you can abuse it where you don't have more than 2 enemies lined up. Just a PSA :)
i dont know, why no one uses a blinding GL. It would have been great for both builds imo. And for the Dawn Chorus build i would have used more spicy fragments to juice up my ignitions like ember of char and ember of eruption.
At the end, the “BaaaaAAAAAANED!!!” showed me that Aztecross is practicing for the apocalypse and will become the host of a real life build battle arena.

So what’s the difference between this dawn chorus build and every other warlock dawn chorus build?
I guess weapons 😂
If you replaced Graviton with Buried Bloodline in that strand build it might be okay. Coldheart and 'those' booties might make an even better pair for using tangles like that.
I made a bill that I didn't realize it was so popular on RUclips. It's that stasis one with those stasis gauntlets on warlock. Except I don't use the stasis Trace rifle. I use travelers chosen
I run that strand build with a void lmg that has well spring and demolitionist. It defo feels better for energy regen
You've gotta admit that Nezarecs recharges supers super fast. Like, that super regen was nuts.
When cross starts playing Les’ build, he’s saying he kinda woulda helped more for ability regeneration, meanwhile look at his melee charge going up crazy fast 😂
Royal entry with field prep and clown cartridge would’ve been great for Les’s build… precision rockets have more ammo and total damage
Gravaton lance is the goat for add cleaning. Its such a great weapon that goes so well with all classes .
Same with Sunshot
What about Buried Bloodline instead of GravLance? Devour on StrandLock for survivability and extra nade energy + Nez's Sin for increase ability regen
you lose a bit of ad clear power but i think as long as you maintain weaver's trance (which should be hella easy with devour feeding nade energy + nez sin ability regen) you should be able to control the crowd to some extent + weaken stronger enemies/bosses from BB's catty. the only thing worrying is the ammo economy i guess
thoughts?
This is my version of the build. It works so much better than GL.
Think it needs a strand weapon also to get the artifact pumping unraveling. Otherwise looks different
ammo econ isn't too bad since special finisher is a thing but perhaps the build maker doesn't have bloodline?
@@charliefielke721buried bloodline does not kill the suspended enemies since its single target one kill from graviton will suspend and cosmology will kill the suspended targets thats the point of the build
Ive been running a gl build too with : tusknof the boar envious assasin chain reaction, loreley titan, sunshot, but with a hvy gl. Edge transit w envious assasin & destabilizing rounds, been doing almost twice as many kills as the other players in fire team
Seems like precious scars would be better swap than lorely. Give your whole team resto instead of just you.
@@alaskayoung3413 ill give it a try
Honestly, the Strand build is better. I would have used as heavy the Commemoration machine gun and maybe Tusk of the Boar in the kynetic slot but Scatter Signal is very solid too. Keep in mind Cross died and he almost had same amount of kills with this build, many waves before the boss room, so he would have got around 1k kills, which is very similar to Mantics build with Strand using Wishkeeper and The Swarmers. Just let the Flood kill and suspend for you, generating orbs left, right and center. Interesting damage with Dawn Chorus vs Tormentors, those ignitions were hitting it hard.
Cross the point of nezarec isn't for the regular abilities but specifically for super abilities. If you take a look at your super meter it jumps up like crazy but you rarely ever used your super
The void build seems like a good idea, however since the suspending burst from Weavers Trance counts as grenade kills, I assume that's why the ability regen doesn't seem great, because that damage is getting kills instead of Graviton Lance.
Right needed to have firepower and ashes to assets. And the the pickup orbs reduces grenade cooldown one I have this build and he made like half the orbs.
Suspend build with commemoration and tusk of the boar or buzzard with kinetic tremors has been my go to all season. Carries hard
I've been running a very similar build to les, it shreds, especially when your team are a bit lackluster
Ah. Dawn chorus, my beloved.
Wouldn’t eye of another world be better than nezerac helmet? Also don’t have to use void? What’s the doing cooldowns?
For les' build, swap out heritage in favor of supercluster of a strand fusion instead so that you have anti barrier.
How do you listen to graviton lance for an hour and not lose your mind?
Because 😂 of the sweet, sweet kablumies my man 💪🏿
@@joshuaedwards3955 Lol fair enough
When he popped the super on the Adu I knew it was over got to keep the well away from the adu
For bosses swap off tusk and go Succession with Reconstruct and Vorpal or Supremacy with BnS RWR
Shake it on me Cross
Hol up
Pause
Sus
Imagine not using skyburners girth instead of sunshit more range, scorch on hit, can be used to chain ignitions on higher health targets, the better 150rpm of the two
I feel like Les's build intent wasn't suspension, it was needles. Unfortunately, needles aren't that strong on warlock. They really need to buff the needle ability to be on par with pocket singularity and celestial fire.
In theory, you're supposed to be getting kills with graviton lance to refuel your needles but the regeneration time is so low and the output is so minimal, its just not good.
I do see the vision though.
I wonder why Cross doesn't aim Dragonsbreath at the legs of enemies?? It's affect sprays from the ground like a geyser. Use it to burn off their butts.
No one running Mountain Top!?!? I thought it was the UTIMATE grenade launcher to have. I just got my first shinny Mountain Top and not overly impressed. I'm still slaying with Salvager's Salvo with Spike, Demolitionist, Chain Reaction. Will still keep trying to get a better role with MT. And if you are running Warlock, everyone expects you to use Solar with Well of Radiance.
I’m thinking for the boss rooms switch off of tusk and run KT Rewind Supremacy or Firing Line Succession with Dragons, or even overflow control burst Fusion for the Wave 50 boss since he’s more mobile.
Tdt build. Been strong af. Just rocked it in hypernet and it dominated
I bet Cross has been dreaming of this day for a long time. 🤣
People hanging around the defense point during a tormentor... gets under my skin lol
I use the iron banner GL with xeno and it was pretty good for the shriekers and ogres and knights
God Light slayer is my fav boss to fight hes so good and his voice and 1v1 him with lament and stronghold is just beyond satisfaction for me
The apex predator is a weak link in Les' build should be using a void heavy to dip into the helm also and a different dmg perk then bait
The suspend build with Swarmers that Mactics showcased from a community member of his is much better than this Nezzy Sin build and does what it tries to do. At least there you get threadlings and suspend at the same time which leads to ridiculous ad clear. Also Ashes to Assets does work when consuming the shackle grenade so it's better than hands on.
Graviton lance just doesn't have the fire power it used to. It can't consistently get the kills to proc sin. Maybe swap it out for something with destabilizing rounds and put the exotic somewhere else, maybe the one that drops the debuffs I don't have it so I'm not sure what the name is
Swarmers w/ Tusk CLEARS the ad rounds of Onslaught
anyone else feel super weirded out by a Rift icon on Solar Warlock? I'm never off Phoenix Dive. The image makes me so uncomfortable LOL
also Deconstruct on Tusk still can work in that "buggy" state we had before - body shots STILL count for two hits, so you can abuse it where you don't have more than 2 enemies lined up. Just a PSA :)
Just run swarmers for strand. With the seasonal mods threadlings are insane.
Braytech rocket with envious/ bipod and reserve mods gives 18 rockets. Not sure of what overall damage would be but dats alot of rockets!!
I wanna see chat reaction on the site of screen so bad. It's 1000 times funnier when you see someone get banned on stream
Les’s build he needs to switch nezerack out with swarmers and I use edge transit and tusk of the boar or I just use midnight coup
i dont know, why no one uses a blinding GL. It would have been great for both builds imo. And for the Dawn Chorus build i would have used more spicy fragments to juice up my ignitions like ember of char and ember of eruption.
