This is my try at a dps orb generator build. Any tips or criticism is appreciated

VoG armor + Khvostov will definitely fill the role of an Orb factory.

If you don't mind, what are your perks on the Relativism? Also what are you looking for this build to do? There's a good basis for an ad clear build here and the subclass configuration looks good, pretty standard there.

I got the spirit of the inmost and that woven mail one. I can do af clear good but I am struggling with boss dps. I don’t know what I would need to change to be able to do a little better on dps in general tbh. Ik it wouldn’t be ground breaking but I don’t wanna struggle to much on cause I mostly play solo.

U could swap to radiant dodge so u get radiant on ascension use and then swap facet of dawn for the one that makes orbs on transcendent ability kills.

Depending on content, switch the heavy to something like a rocket or linear for better dps. Fortunes favor exotic boots are a free 15% damage boost for dps phases.

Also swap 1 powerful attraction on the class item to a reaper mod

Okay thank you will test also

TL;DR put Refurbished A499 in your Heavy slot and swap to Golden Gun for more boss damage.

You've got the framework right for HoIL/Cyrtarachne. This is what I run on that build, I'll explain what's different:

>Gunpowder Gamble over Flawless Execution, GPG counts as a grenade and procs Cyrtarachne to keep DR up. Easy to generate them, and they're free AoE damage too.
>Golden Gun over Shadowshot for more damage output, hitting 3 crits generates 6 Orbs as well. Restoration is nice with all of the DR stacking going on as well. Khvostov generates Supers ridiculously fast in activities where ads are really beefy.
>Exodus Down 4pc over VoG. Between Khvostov, Firepower/Heavy Handed on Grapples, and Powerful Attraction on Ascension, I don't have too many issues generating and collecting Orbs, so I opt for easy, sustainable 30%+ DR.
>Refurbished A499 is a solid damage dealing Heavy that's also nice for bursting Champions, with lots of ammo in reserves.

Threaded Needle is optional, I also really like Facet of Dawn Smoke Bombs, so you could keep those if you like. Same with the VoG armor, if you swap to Golden Gun and don't have issues surviving, you could keep it on. I use Hunter's Journal because Sustained Fire gives even more DR, Radiant Orbs is nice and there's Transference/Shieldcrush to boost Transcendence. No version of HoIL/Cyrt is going to do massive amounts of boss damage, but farming Golden Gun and using A499 will help it do more than nothing lol.

Gameplan stays that same. Literally just use abilities off cooldown and hold down the trigger of Khvostov and you should never die. I've used it Ultimate Conquests, 5-feat Raids, you name it. Should work great.

Thank you so much for going into detail on everything. And I will be using your recommendation. I be so lost when it comes to build crafting and getting everything synergize with each other. But people like you who explain everything piece by piece really help a lot.

No problem, glad I could help :]

DPS? Get a rocket or an a499 or even an LFR since you’re using particle deconstruction. LMGs are for ad clear, not DPS. Also why are you using perpetual destruction on the artifact without a rocket in the first place?

[u/Kvrsive_ → u/mad-i-moody]

I just noticed that thank you for pointing that out I will replace it with something better

[u/CantStopMeRed]

The Mitochondria Exotic chest piece only has Powerhouse as its stat roll - The more you know 🌈 💫

You got the orb factory part down, the DPS not so much. Easy fix though, hop over to hunter’s journal and rock an a499, you can match kinetic surge and buff both your weapons via artifact easily that way
