Damage Testing the New Perk: Elemental Honing (Destiny 2, Episode Heresy)

Quick glance into how the perk work and its percentage values. I look forward to Aegis possibly making some rotation with this perk.

I think from this desc and explanation on these, the prismatic turret warlock would be at consistent up time damage proc with these perk. Because the grenade has 2 element (stasis(bleakwatcher) and arc (electric soul turret)) + solar or void prismatic ult + needle storm + 1 weapon hit either from kinetic or element damage.

Thank you for this video!
For minimal elements I was thinking
Pris Rotations for Elemental Honing:
Hunter: stasis/solar grenade, void super, Strand melee, hezen
Warlock: stasis/void grenande, strand super, witherhoard, hezen
Titan: strand/arc grenade, void super, witherhoard, hezen

[@Sunfirea]

Hold up 35% for 20 seconds just for basically taste the rainbow damage? Lol shit is free on pridmatic then

[@razer-crypt]

this perk basically solidifies that we won't be getting another subclass/element which is sad

[@mutantraze3681]

Comments here are dumb. Elemental honing is much better if you build around it. Also ffs dont use explosive light. Hezen gets bait and elemental honing and both are leagues better considering you are only running this rocket for envious arsenal

[@hahayay1086]

since explosive light is an easy easy easy perk to use, people will always use it.

[@WeLoveAspect]

@@hahayay1086 Oh but BnS isn't? lol EL is ass and has been for a very long time

[@superblahman]

4 Prismatic Warlock with Getaway Artist build.
Praedyth's with the perk.
Finality's Auger turret
1Titan on Darci/barrier build.
Spam Praedyth with Darci boost.
So with Elemental Honing + Well + Darci + Bolt Charge
That's a lot of damage.

[@The_Capt.]

@@superblahman I saw bog on my dog do the 1 phase witness kill with sniper rotations with the finality augers turret. Definitely an interesting exotic both in its game play and in its dps abilities. I just wonder how it compares to anarchy with bolt charge? (Although it’s a great way to get solar damage for the elemental honing)

[@superblahman]

@@The_Capt. Bolt charge anarchy or qb is far stronger by itself.

[@guigui4432]

Wonderful on prismatic😱

[@yangthao1795]

keep it up, good work, seems like a lot of work to get to 35% get, and its just the one shot?

[@firstlast7632]

It lasts 20 seconds, not 1 shot.

[@The_Capt.]

Thank you, I am looking forward to other people creating rotations with this new perk.
I do think that it is a lot of work to get 5 stacks, but you do get multiple shots. You get 20 seconds of the damage buff which I hope will maybe make the perk more useable. (I think it might be 22 or 23 seconds when the perk is enhanced too)

[@Yippa]

very niche perk for high total dmg, demo x bns needlestorm fits better for most scenario

[@rhiys]

Prismatic warlock rotation.
Pop Needlestorm
Pop Prismatic
Grenade (void/stasis)
Melee (strand needle - also debuffs enemy and DoT)
Sniper shot
Arc primary shot
Solar Hezen mag dump to proc Honing.
(Leave 1 rocker left. We will use this to reproc Honing for the sniper)
Grenade (void/stasis)
Melee (strand needle)
Rocket Shot
Arc Primary shot
Praedyth mag dumps
Gg.
Can even add a loadout swap too.
Class 1:
Star Eater bond
Class 2:
Sanguine Alchemy
Rotation would be:
Pop Needlestorm (star eater)
Swap to sanguine
Pop Prismatic
Grenade (void/stasis)
Melee (strand needle - also debuffs enemy and DoT)
Rift
Sniper shot
Arc primary shot
Solar Hezen mag dump to proc Honing.
(Leave 1 rocker left. We will use this to reproc Honing for the sniper)
Grenade (void/stasis)
Melee (strand needle)
Rocket Shot
Arc Primary shot
Praedyth mag dumps

[@jagan9235]

Should be 50%

[@TonyScimeca]

It appears the gun, on its own, doesn't generate a stack? So the 6 damage types are kinetic, solar, arc, void, strand, stasis?
that makes this take a lot of work if you also have to hit with a kinetic weapon, since you can't rely on subclass abilities

[@The_Capt.]

The weapons on its own do trigger the perk. In the clips I switched to different rolls to get an accurate base damage number which I am sure might have caused confusion for a lot of people. (sorry for lack of clarity)
Although I do agree with you that it is a lot of work. I hope this perk might be used in speedruns where every input is already planned. Although in the upcoming day 1 dungeon, I will probably be running bait n switch instead of elemental honing.

[@centrix9425]

does this perk work with wolfpack rounds

[@The_Capt.]

Not sure yet, I can test later tonight but I really hope it does.

[@supanjibobu372]

how do u get 5 stacks

[@centrix9425]

Abilies and weapon damage count, I imagine it was from the prismatic grenades of each class and then filling in with a melee ability and whatever element is left.

[@subdemon.]

you have to do damage with all elements.

[@andersbylund2753]

Seems like a lot of work

[@nightismonochrome]

it’s basically another version of bait and switch, but with elemental damage where you can probably use your grenade and melee.
But yeah. It does seem like a lot of

[@thetoolie5917]

if ur using prisma then its pm a perma 30%

[@iambenutzungslos3136]

Soooo…..Just use BnS.

[@itzcowb]

Prismatic Warlock can easily get to 5x. Transcendence Grenade will give Void/Stasis (Nova Bomb can also give Void), Melee will give Strand, Pyscopomp will give Arc and Helion or Hezen can give Solar. You can easily use fit this in

[@carnage9536]

@@itzcowbor just use bns since you should be doing an envious arsenal rotation with hezen anyway

[@Seylle.]

@@carnage9536I wanna see the overflow with bipod and the trait perk

[@carnage9536]

@@Seylle. you can use both
