Create an army of Threadlings with Weavewalk
The Season of the Witch (S22) is here, bringing to Destiny 2 some additions, like the new Weavewalk aspect for the Strand subclass. This new aspect is very powerful, helping a lot in survivability and creating an army of Threadlings, check here this Warlock Strand build.
The Weavewalk is a Warlock ability activated when dodging while airborne. It makes the Warlock more resistant to damage, similar to the Hunter’s invisibility ability. The Weavewalk is perfect for repositioning on the field and getting out of sticky situations. While the ability is active, Threadlings are generated up to a maximum of five. The Swarmers legs give all Threadlings the ability to Unravel targets and generate more Threadlings. This Destiny 2 build is intended to be used with strand weapons, like the exotic Quicksilver Storm.
You activate Weavewalk and summon 5 Threadlings. Next, you exit using your rift, which generates 3 more, and then you send all 8 of them towards your targets. You can also use a grenade to summon an additional 3 Threadlings, creating a powerful Threadling army that can deal massive damage.
