ADestiny 2player has shared their surprisingly effective Void Hunter build that leverages an Exotic weapon that often ends up getting overlooked in endgame-tier builds. The player’s Void build is so effective, in fact, that it may well end up leading to the weapon getting disabled, meaning Hunter players ought to use it while they still can.
Whiledeciding which subclass to main inDestiny 2generally boils down to personal preference, it goes without saying that most of the subclasses' respective builds simply cannot be replicated by others. Warlocks and Titans do sometimes end up providing more utility in endgame-tier content than Hunters do, but this isn’t always the case, and Void Hunters in particular may be the most powerful of the bunch.

Destiny 2player an18ftsloth has demonstrated the remarkable effectiveness of their Void Hunter, with the Exotic Wish-Ender bow being its highlight feature. Specifically, an18ftsloth combines the Wish-Ender’s unique thrice-applied punch-through damage with the Orpheus Rig Exotic armor piece and the Deadfall Void Super ability. Since Deadfall tags a group of enemies and doles out damage applied to one of them to everyone that’s been tagged, this leads to the Wish-Ender’s punch-through hitting three times for each affected enemy. This Void Hunter build is upgraded further still through the use of Dynamo and Kinetic Siphon, which leads to near-instantaneous Super regeneration after just a few hits.
The end result is predictably effective, as an18ftsloth demonstrates in their gameplay video. As nice as it is to seeDestiny 2’s Wish-Enderin such a powerful build, the fact that it regenerates Super so quickly means it may end up getting nerfed or outright disabled in short order. Bungie has historically been eager to do away with outliers that return Super abilities at a rapid pace, which means this build may get taken out of the equation soon.
It’s worth pointing out that this Wish-Ender combo is, in fact, working as intended at this time. It’s the specific interaction between Deadfall’s damage application and the Wish-Ender’s own Exotic perk that leads to such ridiculously effective results.Destiny 2’s Osteo Striga is broken, on the other hand, as it can lead to an infinite damage bug under specific conditions. Bungie may end up treating both of these damage-dealing instances in a similarly drastic manner, however.
In the interim, Void Hunters may wish to use the Wish-Ender, Orpheus Rig, and Deadfall combo while they can, especially with an18ftsloth’s recommended mod loadout. It’s particularly handy in endgame-tier activities, though it’s also worth highlighting thatDestiny 2’s Legend rewards aren’t that greatat this time, anyway, making the whole thing a bit of a wash.
Destiny 2is currently available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
