Its been in the game for over half a year now. Waveframes are not free kills if you know how to counter them. Airplay and baiting shots are a good way to ensure they waste their special ammo. The launchers have no proximity detection and frequently go in the wrong direction. Aside from the questionable AOE, they arent good at long range. This playstyle focuses on closing the gap. If you die, your teammates are looking at a 2v3 every round.
@@haloboy817yeah but in air play is a death sentence for most classes, excluding this one and solar lock. And dying leaving your teammates in a 2v3 is true for everyone in the game
For anyone that doesn't have the grenade launcher: Harsh Language and Truthteller also roll Disruption Break in the 4th column. Good luck with your rolls!
Video quality is insane. Really informative. Think I've reached the point of the season where I may chill until the new season, but you might've persuaded me to give this build a go first
You hit the nail on the head at the start of the video, Ima Wallah fan and have been using explosive personality with a hc since his tournament video. Thank you so much for breaking down the playstyle for us!
I ran it today, dmt or Ace seems like the best fits but I enjoyed Hawkmoon the most. The only downside was any of the reloading perks cancelled my paracasual shots. I had to decide at points that if I wanted to grapple or go for that high damage final bullet.
Really appreciated the video format and information, came across the video while looking for strand builds based on wallah and now you sir have a new sub! Thank you
Great video! Been maining warlock for long time but this made me want to work on my strand hunter play. Just finished getting the build together and combined with the month long break I took from the game, I am having a blast in Destiny! It’s been a while since I could say that. Thanks for the inspiration.
I was waiting for someone to cover the one shot combo with spike lol. If your playing a smaller map one of my fave combos is a slideshot Lonesome just cause how fun it is, and I can’t wait for next season to try it with Warden’s Law. Hard recommend you obviously run Thread of Generation, Kickstart mods for your grenade and impact induction alongside with bomber and outreach, you almost always have your grenade for an engagement it’s beautiful. Also remember your super gives you unlimited grapples and dodge charges so the super actually has use for topping off your abilities once you’ve used it as best you can.
As a long time ophidian/stasislock, I CRAVE the freezes. Rift, bleak watcher, or melee... this build actually looks really fun and I may just have to bust the rust off my hunter this weekend! Great video!
By the way, there's a very minor misunderstanding about guardian health here--a max resil guardian has 200 health, not 202. I am guessing there are some rounding or display errors going on if you're getting resil gated by EP->140HC body. Gonna do the math as I type this out. A 140HC does 46.50 bodyshot per d2foundry (Destiny always rounds damage numbers up, so it displays 47). Multiply that by 1.5 for Disruption Break and add 131 from the wave frame and you get 200.75, which SHOULD kill all resiliences. d2foundry shows wave frames doing 130 damage, not 131, but it also displays some of that as direct impact damage for some reason, so I'm not completely inclined to trust it there. However, if it does do 130.00001 damage or whatever, then it would do under 200 damage and get resil-gated by titans, despite displaying more than 200. Hope this helps!
I think I matched with you this weekend on midtown. I dont remember how the game turned out but I remember inspecting you and noticing strand hunter with dmt and explosive personality. ggs
lmao no way lucio and doomfist were brought up, that caught me so off guard bring back uppercut :( I recently ditched overwatch for going back to destiny lmao
I main hunter but haven't played strand or with a wave frame in crucible. I took both into Iron Banner and had players chasing me down with malice in their heart. 😂 Admittedly, my movement is awful right now and i don't use the full strand potential in some scenarios but now I see the potential. I did watch some players running in groups understand the wave frame play style and adapt. I'll have to change load outs to counter. New sub
There's a good chance I have the most kills with wave frames in the entire world... That scares me. Once you start bouncing waves off walls and getting consistent hits, you know you've played the game too much. Great use of Home btw
@@Izanamii thanks man, one of the best tips sections of wave frames I've ever seen. At this point i still don't understand why they aren't used as much. Disruption break is stuuuupid, but so are waves in general. I think the biggest advantage of using one over a breach GL is that you don't have to hold the trigger or wait to swap after the detonation; you can swap immediately, which helps with lower handling weapons and overall muscle memory. DMT makes so much sense too, it's uncanny. I'm so bored with the game though, idk really what to think anymore. But I appreciate the comment, even if it's hard to keep up the content nowadays. I'm so disinterested that I'm literally unsubbing from YT channels, but not here. +1 for you boss
@@Izanamii it's funny getting these videos because I don't even have strand fully unlocked, I don't even have it on warlock. I haven't even used strand hunter once in pvp, but now I'm more motivated to.
Hunters for a while now I've taken a backseat to both titans and warlocks in the speed department. but don't get it twisted it's not a equipped, strand and instantly profit ... you have to not only build into it, but you also have to know the points of when you have to release the points where you have to engage.. it's not a set it and forget it situation.

its actually balanced, the counter is very accessible and thats being mobile
doesnt the new void wave frame also have it

Wallah is one of the sickest strand hunters I’ve seen. You are up there as well.
Wallah is washed ayy ?

I like your narration, personal story telling at the end, and just overall the level of chill in your voice and detail in your explanations
. Nice!
It’s like you said at the end, this build is a breath of fresh air and I love it.
Awesome gameplay!
Edit: Wow! This video was really well done. Organized, thoughtful. Well edited and musiced. Keep it up dude.
Some slick footage going on in the background. 😘👌. I will have a little play around with this build when I get home from work. Cheers for the upload.

An amazing breakdown of the subclass.
Wow. This looks really cool! Awesome video 🔥
Nice video! Will try this out for sure

Bruh ive been using this for so long, i dont want others to understand the way it goessss
Harsh language can also roll with disruption break, for those that don't have EP
Great vid, love the pacing and how informative it is but where’s the fashion bit?
This guy is a poet
I can only ever dream of being that good at pvp
Fellow hunters, do not sleep on Frostees.
Is it just me that’s awestruck by this peak performance gameplay? Dude is nuts at this game jesus….
I think I matched with you this weekend on midtown. I dont remember how the game turned out but I remember inspecting you and noticing strand hunter with dmt and explosive personality. ggs
First time watching your content, great clip bro.
That video description 👌
lmao no way lucio and doomfist were brought up, that caught me so off guard
bring back uppercut :(
I recently ditched overwatch for going back to destiny lmao
Love this video, the feels are feeling lol😂
I loooooove launching people off the map with the grapple melee
I suck ass at PvP. But when I play, it’s usually with Explosive Personality. Then probably Crimson and Arthrys Embrace. Just fun.
great vid bro
i use this with wave frame for consistency and shotgun or snipe for flashiness and fun
10/10 vid man
Feel like they talked about changing disruption break to work with any primary ammo
Does the build fall apart at the seams if I dont have an Explosive? I didn't play during whatever season the GL dropped
You could get away with using a disruption break prodigal return or another tube launcher, using a normal wave frame, or just using a shotgun
I use this but with snap skating warlock and no matter what else high I just keep coming back to it
Awesome bro!

wish i had disruption break on explosive. I only got that destabilizing rounds on my void wave frame GL
farm Vox Obscura from the rotator! you should be able to get the pattern soon enough
Loving strand hunter too ^.^
great video with a cool thumbnail
hmmm delicieux AIM 2:35 :)
ive ran into a few ep strand hunters lately and now i wanna slap whoever created wave frame gls
Very good one
came for brownbag, stayed for the sexy voice
Came for the build...the vibed to the music the entire song.
You got 2 view from me, keep up the good work...i enjoyed the plays you did here!
Absolutly amazing playstyle! Gonna try that out. Btw, what shader do you use in this video for your armor? That one looks so clean with stompees
Metro shift on the helmet, precursor vex chrome on everything else
@@Izanamii yoo, thanks a lot!
I appreciate the level of detail you went into to explain the functions of the build 🫡💯
and now we gonna be able to craft dmt next season
im getting the armor pieces
and going for it i love it and i loved to use handcannons and shotguns but i didnt use strand that much
It gives handling??? That’s insane
What are good weapons to use
@Izanamii you know stuff like harsh languege a wave frame has disruption break
What if you don’t have explosive personality
Going to try this build even on controller.... wish me luck. Is auto loading the recommended first perk on explosive ?
Yes definitely run auto loading, hope you have fun with the build!
@@Izanamii sweeeet ^_^ thank you much appreciated
bro really put the “i can fix you” audio in here
This is awesome! Curious - what do you think of threaded specter with bombadiers/geminis vs suspending slam?
Ive been a titan main for PvP since.. I started (Aka I went in as hunter got punched a lot. wanted to punch too. made a titan LOL) Melee is even my most kills in PvP @_@, Anyway.. ive been trying to get above 1.2 KD and shotgun/melee just didnt help. Swapped to this because strand hunters just shit on me constantly andddddd MAN IVE NEVER HAD SO MUCH FUN PLAYING PVP IN YEARS. So. Thank you :)
Is this build still good??
what’s your spare rations roll?
is thread of generation actually good in pvp or not worth the minus 10?
This was awesome, super helpful bc I cannot find a good feeling pvp build and couldn't figure out how to play strand. Just one thing, is there a decent sub for explosive personality? I don't have one :(
Idk where to get one
@@dominicsmeal-ne6bu It was from season 16, I wasn't playing then
what mods do you have on the armour
I missed the time to get EP. Is there another GL that can work decently in it's place for this build?
Great video, you sound like joe rogan’s producer btw
Are there any other classes that you think the weapon pairing would work well with?
Anything that can get to a lane first, probably just icarus dash warlock
The mods what u use?
Do you have any substitute ideas for Explosive Personality? I only recently picked up the game again and that gun is only available sometimes if Xur happens to have it.
I like this guy
Would disruption break with harsh language work for this as well?
Yup!
I was never able to get explosive personality crafted, are there any alternatives while I wait to be able to craft it overtime
nice video :)
Can I do this with prodigal return using same perk and turn about and not to mention the bonus for reviving dudes during this?
If u dont have the laucher, what should u use then? In the energy slot
how do you set up controller binds to be able to suspend and punch for movement and stuff tho
can i sub explosive personality with forebearance and still 1 shot combo?
Nice
Hello, now that DMT is craftable what do you recommend on that.
Arrowhead/fluted + ricochet + moving target/vorpal + short action stock
@@Izanamii thank you for responding so quickly I love the video. Thank you so much.
Does harsh language work in place of explosive, mine has disruption break field tested
Should work fine
Found your channel recently and have been enjoying the content. I'm interested in trying the builds and would love a build card I can refer to.
is there any alternate for the grande launcher, is pretty hard to get atm
