Void Souls all over the place
Destiny 2 Season of the Witch is here, as usual with some adjustments and new content. If you are looking for a Void build for your Warlock here you have one very powerful, thanks to the exotic arms Briarbinds.
The focus of this warlock build is the Void Souls, enhanced by the Briarbinds. You be able to deploy 2 or 3 Void Souls at the same time, weakening multiple enemies and replenishing your abilities. Don’t forget to see our other guides, like Strand build with Monte Carlo.
Warlock Void Abilities, Aspects & Fragments
Abilities
Super Ability – Nova Bomb Cataclysm
Class Ability – Healing Rift
Melee Ability – Pocket Singularity
Grenade Ability – Vortex Grenade
Aspects
Feed the Void – Defeat a target with a Void ability to activate Devour. While Devour is active, final blows restore health and extend Devour.
Child of the Old Gods – Cast your rift to create a Void Soul. When you damage a target with a weapon, your Void Soul flies to them and drains them, doing damage and weakening them. When a target is being drained, you are granted grenade and melee energy (if running healing rift) or health (if running empowering rift). Defeating a target who is being drained by your Void Soul grants class ability energy.
Fragments
Echo of Instability – Defeating targets with grenades grants Volatile Rounds to your void weapons.
Echo of Undermining – Your void grenade weakens targets.
Echo of Starvation – Picking up a void breach or an orb of power grants Devour.
Echo of Harvest – Defeating weakened targets creates an Orb of Power and a Void Breach.
Recommended Gear: Briarbinds
The Briarbinds are the key element for this Void Warlock build. They not only increase the Void Soul duration but also increase the damage and durability by killing targets. You are also able to collect your Void Souls to redeploy them. When you grab one, a timer of 25 seconds starts, it’s the time you have to send it again to a target, if you pick up the same Void Soul again you get 25 seconds timer again. This allows you to grab Void Souls before they expire to use them again as a new one, so you are able to get 2 or 4 Void Souls active at the same time. Beware that the damage doesn’t stack on the same targets so is only worth spreading Void Souls to target different groups of enemies.
For this build you want Void weapons, if have the Repulsor Brace perk, even better, this gives you an overshield by killing Void-debuffed targets. Other great choices are the Graviton Lance, The Title, or Traveler’s Chosen.
