hey yo if you missed my video earlier today yes I have played some of the final shape in advance and yes it is cool for me to make content on it the Embargo is now over check the previous video if you want to learn all about new exotic weapons and armor but right now we're going to have a quick talk about supers there are three new supers coming in the final shape and if you've seen every promo or teaser ever put out by Bungie you've already caught a glimpse of what they look like they are Twilight Arsenal song of flame and Storm's Edge I've used all three and I'm going to give you a run down of each General opinions and tell you which one I enjoyed the most which you can actually just find out by looking at the chapters of the video cuz my favorite one is saved for last do I think it'll be hard meta probably not but I thought it was fun as hell very quick note out of every pre-final shaped video I end up making I don't have a ton of super footage to go through we were on a really tight schedule and also weren't allowed to record absolutely everything we were shown but for now we'll make do with what we got first up song of flame make no mistake AK just because it's up first does not mean I dislike it song of flame is extremely fun and will definitely have a place in both PVE and PVP when activating your super you basically go Super Saiyan for a short time and gain the ability to do other unique things first you can release a supercharged melee attack that launches additional projectiles think of a Juiced up incinerator snap that launches seven Embers instead of just five you can also create a sentient flame wisp that seeks out nearby enemies and blows up dealing Scorch damage then seeks out other targets quick note on the first two factors the recharge timer on those two ability spam options are ungodly quick in the footage I have recorded I do spend some time shooting as well but if you wanted to you could just go back and forth between the firebird and the melee back and forth and never really need to shoot your gun at all until song of flame runs out it is quite literally solar ability spam the super but wait there's more when song of flame is active all your equipped weapons are radiant you and nearby allies regenerate their abilities more quickly are more resistant to incoming damage and your solar and kinetic weapons automatically apply Scorch damn song of flame is going to be a very fun clear the room super if you're into those but there's potential for being a DPS super as well because of the whole regenerate abilities more quickly for nearby allies type thing I'm wondering if there could be situation where one song of flame warlock empowers other nearby warlocks wearing Starfire protocol to maybe capture a little bit of the glory of the old meta unfort it would have to be other warlocks with Starfire and not you because remember your grenade ability gets converted into the solar wisp ability which likely wouldn't hit as hard as a fully beefed up Fusion grenade at the very least depending on how good the damage resist factor is this could be a potential solution to the upcoming radiant well Nerf for example one warlock drops a well which is getting nerfed in the final shape but maintains the damage buff while a song of flame warlock also activates granting everybody near the well some prote protection via the group Dr factor from song of flame that also has the combined benefit of being able to hit the target with free Scorch damage provided you're using a kinetic or solar weapon but hey last time I checked apex predator is goddamn solar good enough for me go ahead and keep all that on the mental back burner could be important final note the recharge time in the menu has song of flame listed at a base recharge time of 9 minutes 16 seconds which means this is officially a tier 2 super AKA putting it in the same recharge category has Daybreak Nova warp storm trance and Winter's wrath moving on to the hunter Ark super Storm's Edge in a nutshell throw an arc blade immediately teleport to it and do an AOE attack rinse and repeat all in all you can do that attack exactly three times at Max if I slow the footage down a little bit you can see the exact range of the AOE attack by the outline of the blue circle on the floor when the hunter spins again didn't have a ton of time or the ability to really go in with a fire team and do actual DPS testing on a real boss or anything like that but during the event we were able to play some PVP as you can probably imagine the super was likely designed to specifically to shine in PvP and it very much does every time somebody activated Storm's Edge it was not quite a panic attack but rather an almost certain feeling of oh yeah we're dead difficult to deal with due to the blink factor and if you don't kill that Hunter before they approach you you are dead I did not get a chance to test if you can use Storm's Edge to teleport into a Titan bubble which which I'm extremely curious about go ahead and add that to the list of things I can test when final shape drops again I don't think this will be a go-to PVE DPS super could be wrong though but I would be shocked if it outperformed Gathering storm pun not intended by the way but I'm leaving it in the goddamn script deal with it I'll be sure to let you know if it turns out to be a PVE Powerhouse but watch out for it and PVP for sure oh and for the record the storm's Edge coold down is 8 minutes and 20 seconds making it a tier three super finally we come to the super that I had the most fun using Twilight Arsenal here's how it works when you activate it you Chuck three gigantic void axes in any direction you want and they all deal big damage on impact after you're done throwing the three axes you've chucked will sit on the battlefield waiting for you to go over and pick them up you or any of your fire team members can grab them and swing away your axe has 10 ammo on pickup which basically is how many times you can light swing the weapon before the axe goes away if you use a heavy attack you literally Yeet the axe away completely dishing out damage one final time so if you want to be efficient about it light swing nine times then when you have one ammo left Chuck it because you're going to end up losing it anyway a little extra info on impact the void axes actually pull in nearby enemies kind of similar to the initial pull on a Vortex Nova bomb but they also detonate in a weakening explosion swing in the axe will also apply weaken directly to a Target as you can see in the following clip of me throwing down with a giant taken in the pale Hearts the weakened swing effect should be about 15% putting it on the same level as Divinity or heart Shadow I don't exactly know how long the weaken effect lingers for but that's one of the things I aim to try and figure out quickly after the final shape drops now will this super replace curious Thunder crash or pyroil Hammer Titan in the burst damage super Department probably not have I done proper damage testing no but I'm going to and thunder crash and pyroil would be really hard to beat either way that being said incredibly fun and I'm sure specific uses of the super will come into Focus the more time we get to play around with it other fun facts about Twilight Arsenal if you're rocking this in PvP enemy players cannot pick up the void axes you leave on the ground you can only pick up axes if the player who activated the super is on your team by the way there were two groups of people playing PVP at this event and in the group I was not in I was told a team of four went in with all void Titans and when it reached super o'clock this was apparently brutal to deal with also keep in mind the axes will not remain on the ground forever short testing I did show that they stick around for 19 to 20 seconds before going away you'll know they're about to disappear because they'll Shimmer briefly before they vanish out of every Super Twilight Arsenal was definitely my favorite the axe chopping and chucking was damn satisfying in a way I really can't explain again I don't know if it's going to shake up the top of the meta but it was damn satisfying and I'm really going to look forward to doing testing with both it and song of flame in particular when final shape drops no love lost to Storm's edge of of course I'm sure it'll make plenty of people cry and PvP with little testing required go ahead and let me know your thoughts down in the comment section and more tomorrow peace
