We love to see personal growth. Also, gunpowder gamble has an additional benefit other than giving you another nuke to throw out: it lets you run resto grenade to keep you alive while still giving you a damage grenade
@@MacticsG1 now remember we are getting a second frag slot on it plus halving the cd in 2 days. I'm sure you covered that but I don't have time to watch rn
This is my go to build. Ever since Coolguy reviewed the Calabans. Drop a healing nade, throw a knife and you get restoration and radiant for like 12 seconds. I also use Calus with unrelenting/incandescent. Auto/chillclip riptide and whatever legendary heavy there is.
Just be sure to NOT pick up another firesprite when your restoration timer is extended (around 10 seconds or more), because it will reset the timer to 3 seconds
I just came into the comments to say this. This has been my favorite solar build for a while but I never really thought about using firesprites with it; I always run it with healing grenades since your knife is essentially a melee and grenade in one. I tried it with firesprites after watching the video, noticed this interaction where picking up a second firesprite resets your timer, and immediately switched back. Firesprite healing seems just a bit too finicky to be worth two fragment slots, when I can have basically unlimited healing grenade uptime with little effort, and there isn’t an offensive solar nade I’m dying to use.
@@j.b.1903 I know bungie won't fix this in a short term. But if they do, picking up a 2nd firesprite shouldve reset it to 10 or 12 sec based how much we have extended. So it's rewarding for generating so many firesprite.
For what solar weapons to use, perhaps exotics like Sky burners or the solar trace rifle might be good since you can almost always scorch targets. Else, weapons with incandescent will always be good for spreading scorch and getting potential ignitions
I’ve been using conditional finality (because it’s good and also does ignitions) and calus mini tool with incandescent with a build *very* similar to this one and it’s incredible
Also crafted BXR. You can get not only enhanced incandescent but you can get enhanced Demo to make it an even bigger grenade party. It compliments not only the gunpowder, Caliban builds but the Young Ahamkaras as well!
Legitimately the best build videos out there. Well written, beautiful presentation, clear breakdowns and a genuine interest in getting people to check out new ways to play their fave classes. Keep doing what you're doing, I'll be here for them all.
I've been using this build since season of the haunted and anything below Master content, it's absolutely cracked. Normal raids and Dungeons are trivial and it's very fun to use. Where I struggle with it is in really hard content as the proximity knife kills need a lot of prep before hand. Otherwise a very fun build and as always a very slick video.
Try it with Monte Carlo…that’s been my build for a while now. Constant melee refresh, constant increased kinetic damage and explosions everywhere. Calus mini and the cannon ball chucker in power is just so fun
I was just about to say the same thing. Even if you miss on occasion, the Monte Carlo is there to help pick up the slack, and with it being on the seasonal mod (for now), it's an easy choice.
screw monte, with the update to tommy’s next season it will scorch, there’s a fragment that grants melee energy on defeated scorch, then 1-2 punch primary shotty with pugilist for increased damage and refresh. Gamblers for unlimited grenade too…next season bouta be so fun
You don't need Monte. Knife is constantly up. Pugilist if you struggle. I can't get off stasis with Verglass ATM. Suppose I could still use it as Solar. Hmmm....
I REMEMBER watching that tier list and saying BRO Calibans hand is NOT C tier its so much fun and the ignitions are good in high tier stuff too i'd say A tier!!!
Perhaps the most important hidden buff of Caliban's Hand is the fact that it takes shaders and glows well. Brooding red glow for the daytime and RGB for the evening.
I don't really run with Hunter to often and when I do, I stick w/ Void. Decided to give this build a shot and was not disappointed at all. Still tinkering with weapons. Anything with incandecent is a plus, sun shot is great. Haven't tried Xenophage, Gally, or Lament to see what I like best yet.
my issue with this build is it falls off really quick in higher content and especially if you have teammates, as any of them can kill the target you're trying to prime to kill with the knife. At that point I much prefer ophidia spathe with skyburners oath and weighted throwing knife. You can ignite anything without a kill required (at the cost of an exotic slot but it's becoming less common to always need a heavy exotic these days)
@@virtual-adam thats why arc titan with pulse nades, void warlock with contraverse and the old starfire are so op bc their neutral game is beyond broken and you dont need kills that means the more health the enemy the more abiliies
I finally got my hands on Caliban's Hand, and I gotta say: this build is fuckin' amazing. I was waiting for arm day Lost Sectors, and I finally got it on Bay of Drowned Wishes on Sunday. These builds help me enjoy D2, so thank you for making videos on them. Have a wonderful day.
5 months later this build still slaps. I prefer it with healing grenade rather than fusion because your knife does plenty of work and healing grenade allows for relative invincibility.
Caliban's has been my favourite exotic since I first had them drop for me. Nothing quite compares to blowing up an entire room full of ads with a couple knives and they look awesome to boot.
Mactics thank you for your build videos. They're always fun to try out different play styles. I have a new idea for a build I would like you to work around. The new Arc Auto Rifle that dropped with Season of the Deep (sprinting creates charges for auto rifle), plus Frost-33z leg armor (sprinting gives ability energy, dodging speeds up sprint) , with arc mods and generating power orbs by getting a kill after using dodge....I think they're could be a fantastic combination here...please help me find it!
Healing grenade - Gunpowder gamble pair VERY well together. Faster uptime on a large ignition grenade plus healing on demand. Use 6 shot goldy and get a knife kill and you have almost unlimited shots. Super fun.
Another fun fact. The grenade from gunpowder gamble counts as an ignition, so that creates interesting strategies involving fragments surrounding ignition, for example, ember of blistering, getting grenade.cooldown based on ignition kills. (I'm going to try replacing mercy and searing with blistering and use healing grenade)
Oh, this is basically the build i made last week when i first found Caliban. I was wondering why i didn't see this in the sandbox more often since bosskiller setups are only used in raids/dungeons (at least for me). Used it to finish the gambit marathon i did to get malfeasance.
I've recently invented some wierd shit with this exotic. I have a grenade-like melee, a usual grenade, one grenade from gunpouder gamble dynamite and one additional grenade from forerunner's catalyst. And that's not all. I have 6-shot goldy with a fragment that makes a boom from every super kill. Hands on and ashes to assets are highly recommended. Ashes to assets work with all 3 types of my grenades, so I get my super very quickly making an endless tally of explosions. I cleared a GM with this build last week and it performed very good😊
I've played with the gunpowder gamble since last seasons end game. It makes it easy to take down large amount of enemies. The only thing I don't like is that you can't choose when to toss it. It'll be first to go as soon as it's ready, which may have killed me couple times.
Really Lole running this build with conditional, acasias and briars - three solar weapons, conditional gets the benefit from eruptions, and next season it’ll cover untops (conditional) overload trace) and barrier (radiant).
I am so glad you made a video on this build. Been maining this and young Ahamkaras Spine for the fun factor now. Pair either builds with Conditional Finality and it turns that to 11 from 10
Yeah, I love switching between the two builds based on whether I’m doing boss damage or ad clear and if I need a healing grenade for survivability. As much as I love the YAS build, it is lacking in survivability and that is really the only downside to the build.
Throw healing grenade at your feet, throw knife at low hp enemy, profit. No need to quickly get kills within a 2 second window of picking up a firesprite to extend restoration.
I've been using this build for a long time and have had the most fun. It doesn't work in higher end game unfortunately where knife doesn't kill. You have to whittle the health down and then use the knife but by then it seems gimmicky. Great in lower end repetitive content though
I would add an alternate mod setup that I like goes into grenade and utility kickstart instead of surge mods, I like it with gamble and kickstart mods for healing grenades for more survival in higher end stuff
I ant to extend an olive branch and say, that mobility yes, however should the timing be off on radiance, would it make more sense to focus on recovery?
Yeah I'd run a YAS build for higher-tier content, if you're going to do solar hunter at all. Caliban's is amazing for add clear in any other scenario though, including non-Master raids and dungeons.
Im keeping an eye out for a Hoarfrost Z titan build from you. Ive been running one for a while and im just curious if i can squeeze a bit more out of it. Love watching your vids and learning new tech. I really appreciate your hard work!
How would i get hoar frost .... I just unlocked stasis ..and oh god i spam crystals with it ..... I have played it till master content ! Im a new player
@@abdulrafaykhan203 assuming you have Witch Queen purchased, you have to first get Hoarfrost from a legend/master lost sector. You can Google the lost sector rotation in order to know which one gives chest pieces
Hey Mac, which is your most recommended Solar build :) I usually exclusively play void hunter, and I'm a bow fanatic and have finally gotten Tyranny of Heaven. I wanna possibly make a solar build around oathkeepers? And recommendations?
I'd love to get a new Caliban's. It was my absolute favorite build back in season 17/18(?) when the solar rework was fresh, but I came into season 20 super late and legendary lost sectors seem impossible on hunters when you're not already at or at least close to the power cap and min-maxed. In Witch Queen, I had no issues, but with the apparent changes to scaling, it just seemed pointless to even try so late in the season.
Glad to see you've come around to caliban's. Here's to hundreds of selfkills cause you knife someone point black 😆 can't wait for next season giving GPG another fragment slot (edit): if you can get your hands on one, a graverobber/swashbuckler royal executioner is revoltingly good on calibans. permanent 33% buff uptime and reloads on a fusion.
I am totally going to use this and pair it up with my Monte Carlo or Sky Burner's Oath with a weapon with Pugilist depending on my mood to expidite those melee gains so I can play the game of who can make the enemies go boom more. I also had a mental Freudian Slip and called you Mantics once instead of Mactics. It's late but my bad.
Ngl it feels like I'm doing something wrong in this build. I'm just not doing high numbers of damage with the knives and it feels like because of that I'm always out of knife charge and using my dodge to get it back.
Same. Imo the build just isn’t as solid as the people say. It absolutely won’t hold up in endgame cuz prox knives don’t kill unless you fill the red bar with lead, and you’re still tasked with picking up a sprite and killing something within 2 seconds to even get the “infinite resto” he loves throwing around. Prox knives hit like puddy
You can use Ophidia but you'd have to sub in the weighted throwing knife. Plus you'll need a weapon that scorches like skyburner's oath. It'll function similarly to this build but it shoehorns you into using a weapon that applies scorch on demand.
Is ember of mercy still bugged? I remember using a similar build but if I picked up a firesprite while my restoration was at say 10 seconds it would drop down to 3 seconds again.
The new mod system is much more convenient, not needing to change ammo mods for each weapon type etc. But I do miss the complexity of the old system, even if it was a pita sometimes.
How are you just finding out that Caliban's hand is good?? I knew it was good since the season it came out in with the Leviathan rework. I mainly watched this to see if you found anything that could improve the build from what I currently know. At least some great weapons/exotics that can synergize and improve this play style. But nope. 1 tip that I can offer to help with this play style, Parasite can easily help with dealing strong DMG to tanky enemies while using this setup. Blade Barriage is great yeah, but it's still a 1 time use super. Parasite will also buff you special weapon dmg if you get caught in it's blast which could boost the DMG of a trench barrel ikelos shottie or solar Vorpal fusion rifle

Proximity Explosive Knife detonation is going to get nerfed tomorrow from 105 to 90 . Think this is going to impact much the explosions ?

Looks nice, I will definitely be there.
huge build. totally going to use that
What’s the gear your wearing in the beginning of the vid
For some reason I can't add impact induction to Caliban's, despite having enough energy
Did they ever fix it only scorching a single target with the explosion rather than all targets hit with the explosion?
Yeah
There's always so many things missing from your dim links in terms of mods. Sometimes even fragments...

I've been running Calibans for the last 3 seasons
How are you just finding out that Caliban's hand is good?? I knew it was good since the season it came out in with the Leviathan rework.
I mainly watched this to see if you found anything that could improve the build from what I currently know. At least some great weapons/exotics that can synergize and improve this play style. But nope.
1 tip that I can offer to help with this play style, Parasite can easily help with dealing strong DMG to tanky enemies while using this setup. Blade Barriage is great yeah, but it's still a 1 time use super. Parasite will also buff you special weapon dmg if you get caught in it's blast which could boost the DMG of a trench barrel ikelos shottie or solar Vorpal fusion rifle
Well just checked and I don’t have Caliban’s time to get it for sure!
