In the world of Destiny 2, Exotic armors tailored to enhance roaming Supers have recently gained significant traction, thanks to impactful buffs introduced with the Revenant Act 2 update. These changes aim to encourage Guardians to favor roaming Supers over traditional one-time-use abilities.
As outlined in a blog post from November, the goal was clear: enhance the effectiveness of roaming Supers. The subsequent damage buffs are now live, and players have quickly identified a particularly powerful combination that stands out in the gameplay environment.
The weapon Bad Juju, which was refreshed in a previous balance patch, allows players to generate substantial Super energy through its Exotic perk, String of Curses. This perk is especially effective when synergized with other gear that offers similar benefits. A prime example that fits this description is Stormdancer’s Brace.
Endless Supers: How It Works
You might wonder how this dynamic new addition has found a place in the Warlock PvE meta. The answer is quite straightforward: it only requires the combination of Bad Juju and Stormdancer’s Brace to unleash its potential.
To provide a bit of context for players who may have overlooked Stormdancer’s Brace—a staple Exotic—you’ll find that it not only boosts the damage of Stormtrance with each enemy defeated, but it also refunds a portion of Super energy upon its conclusion.
This refund mechanic is crucial; when paired with Bad Juju, it dramatically increases the uptime of the Warlock’s roaming Arc Super. For enthusiasts of Warlock’s Chaos Reach Super, this combination rivals the effectiveness of the pre-nerf Geomag Stabilizers.
Bad Juju and Stormdancer’s Brace are essential to maximizing this build.
While Bad Juju’s Super generation is fundamental to this setup, players have flexibility in choosing weapons for their Energy and Power slots. The only requirement is that these weapons must have the Thresh perk to grant 1% Super energy for each kill.
Moreover, to optimize your armor Mods, consider equipping Ashes to Assets, which enables grenades to produce additional Super energy. Additionally, using Dynamo will decrease your Super’s cooldown when casting your Rift near enemies.
You can further enhance your uptime by incorporating cooldown reduction mods such as Innervation, Orbs of Restoration, and Absolution, which will help reduce the cooldowns of your abilities.
