Was trying to make a solar hunter build with the weighted knife, it says you get your class ability back on precision final blow or your knife just on kills when radiant with knock 'em down fragment.
But testing in the firing range neither happens if you cause an ignition which is built into the weighted knife. WHY DO I GET SCREWED FOR TRYING TO USE IT FOR ITS INTENDED PURPOSE.
everything I read something or try to make a build half the time nothing works as intended in this damn game, every patch just breaks the game more and more

Edited by Reith: 12/1/2025 3:59:02 PMFor hunters I really enjoyed the Prismatic Mask of Bakris builds. Using this exotic with gamblers dodge and knife trick it feels like infinite dodges and knife throws. When you dodge and get around 2 kills (a good stasis or arc weapon since the exotic boost those after a dodge) your class energy is practically refilled completely. And of course with gamblers dodge as long as melee is over 75 it refunds in its entirety. I use tinasha's mastery and forgiveness. Those two weapons work well. Plus with the one aspect that turns invis on debuff kills tina's is a life saver sometimes. 😃👍

1 ReplyNothing works as planned because nothing is planned anymore and nothing is tested. On friday night, I did 6 objectives from the portal to use my bonus drops up. So I had 6 drops from 6 objectives which gave me 36 rewards, not counting the ones that drop during the encounters. I got a B+ rating on every encounter, yet [b][i]NOT ONE[/i][/b] reward was above my light level, which was 521 at the time. I swapped characters, did one match of crucible, and got 5 drops, ALL ABOVE MY POWER LEVEL. Slightly off topic to the OP, but why does this happen in a game that is 11 years old??? It's an utter disgrace 🤬

It's dumb but that is how it has always been.

Welcome to Bungie's bad decision to continue building on a system that was put together in around 2 years compared to D1's 5-6 years. Not to mention the reconfiguration of the Tiger engine into the Blam engine which is just Halo's engine repurposed for live games. It all starts to make sense as to why things don't or won't work as intended. The engine is held together with duct tape and a prayer at this point.

2 RepliesBetter off with a build with the three throwing once where it’s basically instantly refunded every time.
