Why Should You Play Strand Warlock?

Strand is the newest subclass part of the Light Fall expansion for Destiny 2. This subclass offers great mobility, survivability, and Damage. Strand is very strong and has helped me clear content that I was extremely under-leveled for. Follow this guide to learn about the Darkness subclass and how to become the strongest Strand Warlock.

Strand Warlock Playstyle

 First consume your grenade by holding down the grenade button this makes it so we have 5 perched Threadlings right at the start of any fight. Next activate your rift to create an army of Threadling. Your Threadlings will seek out enemies to take them down; if they do not find a target, they will return to you in a perched status. While they are perched they will detach from you when you deal damage to an enemy or when you recast your rift ability. The mods listed will help you sustain your grenade cooldown. Remember the more armor charges you have the more grenade energy you will get refunded.

You are going to need strand weapons preferably with the perk Hatchling. This perk allows us to create and have a constant army of Threadlings. Our helmet siphon mods will enable us to make orbs of power which will feed into our grenade to give us that big bump of grenade energy back. Make sure to use siphon mods on your helmet that match the weapons you are using as listed below in the mod section I use weapons that synergize with my siphon mods.

Abilities

To get the Strand subclass, you must own Ligthfall expansion and complete the entire main campaign to get access to all abilities. Additionally, to unlock Strand aspects and fragments, players must buy them from the special vendor, the Pouka Pond, with new currency.
