How it Works

If you want to be the most destructive hunter out there with 5 on demand ignitions while still getting that infinite restoration and healing, with a 400% ability regen to our healing grenade and dodge, then this build will do that and much more!

This is the way I enjoy playing solar hunter the most and I think in most activities especially as you move up into harder content, the build starts performing better and better. The reason for this is we have 5 sources of on demand Ignitions and you all know how strong Ignitions are. They are room clearing explosions and when combined with revitalizing blast and solo operative when your're solo, that adds a 30% damage buff to all these Ignitions and since we have so many on demand, that's what makes the combo truly powerful this season and even when your not solo, you're still getting the bonus from revitalizing blast and the infinite 400% ability regen for our healing grenade and dodge ability.

Now the harder content you push the more our knife trick melee starts to fall off, you have to be really close to land all the knives and they normally won't kill in master or Grandmaster content. So we go with a weighted throwing knife instead because hitting a scorched target will cause an ignition. With this season's artifact any Solar weapon we choose will be able to scorch targets thanks to the mod. We're always radiant from our knives so this is easy. Our knife is now a guaranteed ignition and we can scorch a target and hit them with our knife from a safe distance in difficult content. Next we add in gunpowder gamble. Which would make the 5th ignition to the overall build. We also have this available all the time as we are getting so many ignition kills from the 4 knives.

Gameplay Loop
  1. Use your melee for an Instant Radiant Proc.
  2. This allows any solar weapon to scorch on hit this season thanks to Kindling Trigger.
  3. With your weapon Scorching, any throwing knife hits will cause an Ignition.
  4. Our Exotic gives us 2 knives per charge and when we dodge near an enemy we can get 2 knives back instantly.
  5. That’s 4 knives to cause ignitions with and our dodge is up infinitely thanks to ember of singeing.
  6. Those ignition kills or your solar weapon kills will quickly stack gunpowder gamble for a 5th ignition that will be up every 6 seconds!
