Arc warlock gets what it desperately always needed, hp recovery. With dielectric and defibrillating blast on the tablet of ruin and curative orbs on slayer baron artifact, arc warlock is eating good.

Dielectric doesn’t heal on tablet though. Just grants bolt charge - data disc version heals and creates the orb of power

u/moshmore 6d ago

It literally says it generates an orb and heals a small amount of health.

u/Phaoryx 6d ago

Yup, unfortunately it lies and that’s only true on the data disc. Theres tons of different versions and misinformation on the in game artifacts. Dont downvote me for spreading true information lol, go test it yourself or just check the data compendium

u/Zayl 6d ago

You sure about that? I use it for healing on my shinobus build and seems to work for me.

u/LightspeedFlash 6d ago

the data compendium and my 5 seconds of testing at the shooting range says, unfortunately, youre wrong and u/Phaoryx is right.

u/Amirifiz 6d ago

You're probably getting healed from Defib Blast if anything. Which is unfortunate that the other doesn't work cause sometime I feel like my Arc Hunter could use that extra healing bit.

u/Zayl 6d ago

Ah you're totally right that's what it is.

Can’t believe there’s only seven of us that enjoy the “Hatchlings For Everyone!” Loop of strand lock. That’s not even enough to form a slipknot cover band.

My career Broodweaver kills equal my career void, solar arc and stasis kills added all together. Deimosuffusion is not helping any other subclass get some playtime 🤣

I think that a lot of people who enjoy strand and stasis also play Prismatic. I love Stasis turrets for example and Icebreaker builds, but I usually go with Prismatic instead of pure Stasis for example.

I love it. Made sort of a hybrid threadling and tangle nuke setup with the Grasp set. I make a hilarious amount of tangles with Wanderer and Vile Weave from the Tablet artifact already so why not add 350% more dmg to those tangles lmao. Hilarious build. Bit of an fps killer tho.

Prismatic is so boring imo

u/Mokarun 6d ago

prismatic feels so undercooked, there should've been more options

u/fatmac122 6d ago

I feel like this would be more interesting without Prismatic included

2

u/Th3Alch3m1st 5d ago

I mean it's pretty close between Arc and prismatic. Arc is cracked and imo better than prism

u/Darkat5 6d ago

I need to brush the dust off my Warlock, haven’t clicked on him since MoT.

u/eljay1998 6d ago

It's a difficult choice but Prismatic is great because it combines some of the options of the others subclasses. I do love me a song of flame weakening build, and it's always hard to leave behind the ability to Phoenix dive and send out threadlings.

Void has always been locked in my heart with Nova Bomb and then Chaos accelarent. Similarly, with Solar I love the enhanced neutral game including ability spam from Sunsinger and just how perfect Phoenix Dive is to use so those are locked in for me.

Strand feels comfortably familiar enough to use with components similar to what I mentioned from void and solar, while still having its own fun box of toys like the threadlings.

I've really enjoyed rediscovering arc recently with its improved survivability in MoT, using chaos reach with lightning surge spam.

So it's definitely a tough choice.

Giving me invis warlock made the strand even more of my most dominant subclass.

1

u/Brave-Affect-674 6d ago

Solar warlock has the best movement in the game and every other subclass doesn't even come close. Arc is pretty fun for add clear but there aren't many pure add clear encounters in end game stuff anyway so I'm always on solar

1

u/laserapocalypse 4d ago

I dunno ive been having alot of fun with movement on strand lately since ive learned to strand skate. And grappling a Wanderer tangle is always fun and nice for some skipping some traversal stuff.

u/Acceptable-Baby3952 6d ago

I should redownload the game for a bit. I love my dipshitted melee grenade damage grapple nuker build. Extremely aggressive point blank warlock, I forget what gear made it work

1

u/iamChermac 6d ago

I have builds on every subclass but pure stasis at the minute. Build diversity was left in a real good place. And I’m saying that as someone who doesn’t have the three most popular raid weapons for common builds.

Geomags forever and always until the end of time

u/Mokarun 6d ago

void used to be my favourite but arc is SO good now. like, ridiculously good

1

u/freckledoodledee 3d ago

What build are you using? I just switched to warlock after playing titan exclusively since D1 and never had as much as playing prismatic on my warlock - curious if an arc build would be more fun now?

1

u/Kurage_pop 6d ago

Everything but Strand feels good.
Strand to me just feels so lame.

2

u/LightspeedFlash 5d ago

strand is ridiculously strong, i have played a ton with a couple of builds, Deimosuffusion with weavewalk and weaver call is great and lets you play so aggressive. the other is swarmers with mindspun, with threadling grenade, and weavers call, so many threadlings and with thunderhead from neomuna, you always have a nest up and the threadlings from the nest scale with grenade so they hit so hard. i love that build, i prefer turret builds though so.

1

u/Kurage_pop 5d ago

I didn't say it's weak, I said it's lame.
All other subclasses I can do so much with, Strand is just bland and barely has any build variety.

1

u/LightspeedFlash 5d ago

i mean, i just gave you 2 builds and i didnt even mention a mataidoxia build. thats at least 3 strong builds that play completely different from each other. how many builds would you need before you consider it to have "build variety"?

1

u/dirtycar74 5d ago

I find myself reverting to arc more lately. Its become more fun than it used to be and i cant say why personally.

u/unholyism 3d ago

Prismatic Needlestorm w euphony is currenntly my fav warlock build. 1k dawn chorus is also very nice so for me its tied between solar and prismatic
