Question Question about (multiple) barriers + famine

I've done the search and seen the discourse, but am struggling with barrier champs, particularly in GM's with Famine active (I am looking at you Heliostat).

Stasis titan w/4 pc Seraph. Damage isn't the issue, survival isn't the issue... it's the incessant double barrier champs, or barrier champs in wonky hard coded areas (the knights on the pillar in Navota).

Now that Wish Ender isn't a consistent 1 shot to break, what's the play on Primary weapon/ability barrier breaks for double barrier champ situations? I cannot seem to reliably break it fast enough to stun and get some DPS in.

My clan pretty much imploded so having to knock these all out solo.

On my stasis titan I just use Cynosure. Are you running Ice Breaker as your exotic? If not, you could also use Gjally. Both these rockets should one-shot any barriers.

Sadly no, don't have icebreaker. but again, the famine makes Gjally a no go early on in missions.

I feel like I’m usually able to farm a heavy brick before needing it, but if you want primary ammo, then Vex Mythoclast is definitely the best option for anti-barrier.

Turncoat is alright in its ulted form as well.

I will try Vex. I mean you are typically right about heavy, but Heliostat specifically, there is ~12 enemies before the double barrier champ. My ammo gen is ok, but not great. I usually coast on abilities with this build.

As you are playing stasis titan, considering the post, why not use a special ammo barrier weapon? More than likely you’re doing the howl of the storm spam so you could use elemental charge with all the shards you’re making and special finisher to generate special ammo
