Clan build for high-level defense missions. Potentially EDA/ETA.
Description:
The name of the game is just snapshotting high strength before alt-fire spam with maximum range and strength while keeping high fire rate. Your alt-fire gains range from both range and [Primed Fulmination] and ignore LoS. Due to how fast this build can spawnkill, it gains limited value from a teammate on [Nova] and would rather have a [Wisp] or a [Volt] to provide even more fire rate and some decent movement speed to move around the room
Build notes and variations
You want to purely run hildryn with a Raksa Kubrow (https://druids.live/member/builds.php?view=106&published=1) To help you keep your shields up. Try to also run Madurai for the chain sling strength buff which will be used for snapshotting Aegis Storm. You also would prefer to run a grimoire with Vome Invocation (https://druids.live/member/builds.php?view=105&published=1). The post will be for 2 different setups and 2 variations on subsumes dependent on your preference and how much you wish to invest in this build.
All in all this setup is by far the fastest ways to clear defense fissures and one of the fastest way overall to crack relics, allowing a solo hildryn with random teammates clear a wave roughly every 45 seconds, and you can definetly fit in 2 in a squad.
Playstyle
- Find a group of enemies, spam your grimoire at them with alt fire to get the 60% buff
- Chain void sling
- Cast Aegis Storm
- Redo when you get double strength to snapshot that strength into Aegis storm for the rest of the mission.
- The occasional Pillage cast will be used to just reset your shields but it shouldn't be needed with correct gameplay, otherwise just hold alt-fire and watch as shit dies.
Archon shards
5 tauforged strength shards for 75% more strength
Arcanes
Arcane expertise for a bit more shields, feels less awful to use with this equipped, second arcane is either Molt Augmented if you are going for the cheaper setup or Arcane avenger if you are not.
Subsumes
Comfort option: Elemental ward electricity, lets you spam much more without having to worry about expending all your shields and having to re-cast your Aegis storm.
Max damage option: Eclipse, this is picked above roar because you are unlikely to not have a team member that can provide roar. Roar can be used as a cheap option as you are more likely to have it laying around.
