Destiny 2 “ErgoLOCK” build makes mincemeat of Grandmaster Liminality

Destiny 2‘s weekly reset on July 23 marked the debut ofGrandmaster difficulty for Liminalityand it’s proven to be a tough nut to crack.

Guardians seeking Adept versions ofThe Slammer– essentially the Stasis equivalent ofFalling Guillotine– will have to brave The Final Shape’s only Strike on its hardest difficulty to get their hands on it.

Fortunately, the advent ofPrismatichas led to substantial power creep, but it speaks volumes that Liminality is still going to require a solid build before taking the plunge.

For Warlocks, at least, YouTuberAztecrossreleased a video on July 23 showcasing a tweaked build that should make life easier for Destiny 2’s resident space wizards.

An altered version of Primastic Getaway Artist Warlock, the build centers around one key ingredient:Ergo Sum, or more specifically, one with Riskrunner’s Exotic Perk.

As Liminality is packed to bursting with Taken and other enemies that dish out heavy Arc damage, Arc Conductor on Ergo Sum remains active without end during most encounters.

Paired with Getaway Artist Exotic gauntlets and the Bleak Watcher Aspect allows Warlocks to generate Stasis and Arc turrets frequently. Combined, all three damage sources are automated. Aztrecross can be seen defeating entire groups of enemies in their showcase without firing a single bullet.

For survivability, Feed the Void is the second Aspect recommendation, as both turrets will proc Devour on kills.

Per the build’s loadout onMobalytics, these are the Fragments you’ll want to equip:

Destiny 2 Update 8.2.5 patch notes: Heresy Act 2, Guardian Games, Redrix’s Estoc nerf, more

The caveat? It’s highly recommended to get Ergo Sum’s Catalyst before putting the build together for the improved ammo economy it provides. For that, you’ll need to clearGrandmaster Excision, no small feat in itself.
