While Radiant, final blows with your equipped Throwing Knife fully refund your melee energy. It takes some getting used to, but the power of this combination is worth the effort.īuffs your Super. This works with Eriana's Vow and any Primary Hand Cannons you're using, making it feasible to hip-fire targets at close-range and ADS quickly to deal with long-range threats. Lucky Pants turns your Guardian into a space cowboy, drastically improving the handling and accuracy of your Hand Cannon for a few seconds when it's drawn. You'll also want to be mindful of your positioning staying at mid-range is recommended for this build. Good weapons for this build include Biting Winds, Accrued Redemption, Steady Hand, and True Prophecy. Make sure your Primary has the Quick Access Sling mod equipped.

With a Hand Cannon, you typically want to do the opposite. If you have a Bow, you'll start the engagement with the Bow and finish with Eriana's Vow. This pairs well with either a Bow or 120 RPM Hand Cannon to help kill the target. It has excellent range, deals immense chip damage to the body and high headshot damage, and it auto-loads itself with the Catalyst. If the Hand Cannon doesn't kill them, the poison surely will.Įriana's Vow is an underutilized Exotic in PvP yet surprisingly good. Fire a poisonous arrow at a target, immediately swap to your Hand Cannon, and deliver the final blow. Le Monarque is downright oppressive with its AoE arrow explosions that deal DoT damage, acting as a slow-firing Thorn with nigh-infinite range. Le Monarque is what we recommend for most players, but Eriana's Vow is a good pick if don't want to use a Bow. If you don't like Gunslinger, Arcstrider and Revenant are solid alternatives.

The On Your Mark buff is great for smoothing out this playstyle, and you get access to Radiant and Restoration buffs. This build doesn't rely on any specific subclass spec, but we highly recommend you use Gunslinger while starting out.
