Warlock builds?

[Warmanreaper]

What are the best statistical/visable build for PVE and PVP? Currently I'm using Contraverse hold with vortex nades for PVE

[Zireth]

Contraverse hold W vortex nades for PVE

What?

Don't, please don't that in PvE. Best build for PvP is either top tree dawnblade, preferably with wings of the sacred dawn, or pretty much any arc tree, for bottom tree, use crown of tempest, middle tree either crown, escape artist, or geomag stabilisers(kinda meh but can work if you get lucky), and for top tree either crown or escape artist. Middle tree void with contra is still solid too, just a bit more risky.

For PvE either well of radiance with phoenix protocol or lunafaction boots, or top tree void/bottom tree void with nezarecs sin. Sunbracers are also fun with any solar tree. Crown of tempest is also VERY good in PvE with any of the arc trees, though geomag is definitely the best for middle tree because damage and well over double duration.

These are my opinions at least, I play warlock a good bit.

Could've swore that top tree of dawn was the worst one to use out of every warlock tree, Same as if you paired it with that exotic, the class already did what the exotic does.. pretty sure this was confirmed a long time ago

For PvE it's Transversive Steps and Lunafaction boots, for PvP it's Transversives, sometimes wings of sacred dawn or contraversive depending on what subclass you play.

I dont see why these would be any good at all for pve. or pvp

High level content: contraverse hold bottom tree voidwalker. Or using nezarecs sin. High survivalbility.
Lunafactions or Phoenix protocol with middle tree dawnblade also verY reliable.
For funs this season only: fellwinter helm sadly it been disable for now with middle tree stormcaller with seasonal mod (Tyrant surge). Monte carlo as weapons and demolitionist perks weapons for energy slot.
Pvp: without a doubt transversive steps. Top tree dawnblade.

Crown of tempests with max discipline, top tree stormcaller, and slap on two enhanced ashes to assets for non stop grenades and quick supers.

Any void class with Nezarec's Sin and Recluse as void kills give you ability energy.

Top tree dawnblade super is trash compared to bottom unless you have the skill and aim to make full use of its neutral game.

Very good if you can snipe, if you can't reliably snipe and don't have fast reaction time, it's not very good.

For PvE specifically, I'd say Dawnblade's Attunement of Grace, Stormcaller's Attunement of Control, and Voidwalker's Attunement of Chaos.

For Dawnblade you're primarily supporting people during boss fights with Well of Radiance, so that's where Lunafaction boots and Phoenix Protocol become useful. Don't underestimate the healing grenade. If you're on your own, Sunbracers is a very good exotic to build around with high Strength.

For Stormcaller, you can either go high Discipline and Lightning Strikes Twice mod for grenades, or Strength and Thunder Coil mod for Ball Lightning. Top two exotics are Crown of Tempests for overall regen, or Geomag Stabilizers to increase the damage/duration of Chaos Reach.

For Voidwalker, you rely heavily on grenades so high Discipline with Nezarec's Sin for overall regen, or Skull of Dire Ahamkara for refunded super energy on Nova Bomb. Attunement of Hunger is also quite good for basically becoming invincible during Devour, but it's better suited for large waves of regular enemies since it loses out on charged grenade damage and has a weaker Nova.

First helpful comment so far... but can you explain why for void you would take Nezarec's sin with high discipline, instead of Contraverse hold? (if i fully charge vortex nades and use em on groups or the boss its practically infinite grenades) Currently for pve, im looking for BIG dps on bosses which is why I use top tree void if its just me and a friend, since the dps it gives is insane, I use Well of Radiance when im in raid (not in a very long time) or for public events or if i have a full fireteam

Nezarec's Sin works with any void damage kills so you could use it with something like Recluse, Retold Tale, Hardlight to charge your abilities. Devour + Sin + Recluse is really good.

Strictly dps wise tho (I usually dont have trouble staying alive :<) What would be better? I'm looking to just pump out damage and melt bosses. Currently when im on im usually farming the ordeal at 970 for the exotics, so that boss for example I try to melt soon as he spawns and get about 1/3rd~ of his hp in the first few seconds if i use everything at my disposal

i hope i aint pair up with you,since i aim for 100k scores.
