Attention Guardians! Prepare yourselves for an explosive new addition to the Destiny arsenal that is set to revolutionize your rocket rotations. In the latest TWID update on February 8th, a brand-new grenade launcher utilizing the highly sought-after double fire frame has been unveiled. This game-changing frame, currently exclusive to the Wilderflight (the Spire of the Watcher GL), is about to become the go-to choice for swapping out your energy slot grenade launcher in the Izzy - GL - Rocket rotations.
So why is the Wilderflight the top pick for damage maximizers? It's all about that base damage. The double fire frame packs a powerful punch, dealing a whopping 30% more damage than a standard single-shot GL. But the real magic happens when you pair it with a solar GL like the Empty Vessel, which boasts three solar surges, resulting in an additional 22% damage boost. While the Wilderflight may not match the surges of the leading Auto Loading rockets, it still outperforms them in terms of overall damage output.
Currently, the crown for legendary rocket DPS belongs to the Impact Casing, Bait and Switch, Reconstruction Apex Predator (solar). Guardians running the Izzy - GL - Rocket rotation should team up their Apex with a Wilderflight armed with Spike Grenades, Vorpal/Frenzy, and Auto-Loading Holster (ALH). It is also recommended to have three solar surges, or as many as your build allows. The rocket damage in this rotation accounts for a significant portion of the overall output, making it unwise to sacrifice Apex damage for a void surge just to boost Wilderflight's damage. Rest assured, this rotation consistently delivers top-tier damage numbers, despite the mismatched surges.
But hold onto your helmets, because here's the truly exciting news: the new Wild Style GL mentioned in the TWID update will be SOLAR! Finally, we can match our surges and not miss out on any damage, all while taking full advantage of the double fire frame. While we can only speculate on the perks this new GL will bring, it's safe to assume that Auto-Loading Holster (ALH) will make an appearance, considering it was absent from the last three GL releases. It's about time we receive a little love in the perks department. Personally, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the inclusion of Vorpal or Frenzy to further enhance the damage potential.
In conclusion, mark your calendars for the arrival of the upcoming Solar GL in March 2024. With its coveted double fire frame, it is set to become the premier option for swapping out your GL in the Izzy - GL - Rocket rotations. Keep an eye out for this game-changing addition and get ready to level up your damage output. The future of Destiny is looking explosive!
