it's worth mentioning that if you're low on special ammo when running double special, simply get a few kills with your heavy. Like, really few, you're pretty much guaranteed a green brick within the first 5 kills, and considering just how much heavy ammo you get with double special it's usually well worth it.

I tend to find special finisher on the class item helpa ton as well. With how easy it is to generate orbs, you can quickly get 3 armor charge, and with the mod that gives an overshield durring finishers (also a class item mod, forgot its name), you are practically unkillable durring the finisher. The times I find I run out of ammo is when there are fewer adds in an encounter, as my team usually kills them before I can get a finisher.

Double special feeds you heavy - but heavy kills also feed you special. Destiny seems to give you ammo much more frequently if it's not the gun you're using. If you have a heavy that can also be used on ads, that can help give you green, so you can then use that and go back to making purple. There are a few activities where you burn through so much ammo that double special can be tricky but not many.

Additionally we've gotten two exotic ones in the kinetic slot since your hiatus (Ager's Scepter is currently in the Monument to Lost Lights under Beyond Light, and The Navigator drops from the new dungeon; both are great) and some minor updates to the old ones to give them synergy with some of the new Light subclass mechanics introduced during Witch Queen.

Double special is 100% the play, I like to use the cenotaph mask on warlock with prometheus lens to substitute for my primary: - It has a base inventory size of 100 (holds 600 total, including the loaded mag) which allows for slightly more ammo to be picked up per brick, lasting longer. - It has an AoE attack and also incandescent - It has decent single-target thanks to applying scorch over time for ignitions, also giving it anti-unstoppable capabilities. I could see hollow denial being excellent too due to having the lead from gold perk available on it, here's a quick breakdown: - Enhanced Killing Tally + Enhanced Battery grants 104 mag size. - 2x Void Reserves mods will get you to 100 inventory size. - The above 2 combined results in a total ammo count of 624 - Enhanced Lead From Gold grants you 35% of your special weapon's total ammo count upon heavy brick pickup. (halved if you have 2 weapons with lead from gold equipped) - Per heavy brick pickup, you will get 219 ammo. Or more than 2 full clips, which is crazy. Then there is just generic good synergy between killing tally and cenotaph mask. Oh God now I have to go try this. Great video you earned yourself a subscription!

There is also an internal cooldown for Heavy Bricks and Special Bricks. Changing load zones (ie running out to reset a lost sector, assuming no one in the open world kills an enemy that drops a brick when you enter that world state), then re-entering a load zone after 30-40 seconds will engage special ammo guarantee on kill, up to 2x on first kill when 0 special equipped, and 1x heavy brick when no heavy in slot. When running double special and heavy, doing the same thing will net you same results with 1-2 bricks/kill + possibility of 3x total bricks (2x special + 1x heavy) from that mob.

LOL I absolutely love this data. Usually the only primary slot weapon I will ever have on has kinetic tremors, headstone, or demolitionist depending on build, but if I'm in content that has champs, 99% of the time I'm running riptide, yet i still put on a primary in my energy slot. I do have some God roll lead from gold hollow denials, forbearance, but i get ammo anxiety lmao😅

Give it a try and if you have trouble just switch mid-game. Unless you're doing GMs you should be able to safely swap anytime.

Got my sub! I didn’t learn much from this that I didn’t already know but I learned a bit and it’s an absolutely amazing video! I hope you keep making content and keep doing this well!

Buuuut there is also a very unique game setting that reduces drops. Base easy content gives heavy galore, while harder content spawns significantly less. Source 2700hrs of Destiny.

So I would assume, things that have less ammo but big damage benefit more from the finder mods, as you have rockets getting the higher increase, so: Rockets, grenade launchers, linears, swords, mgs.

Yeah that's exactly it, but the drop off would be drastic. No other weapon benefits even close to how much rockets do because of rounding.

Excellent video, love to see a data driven approach instead of operating on vibes and clickbait

I just don't personally enjoy double special loadouts. Just haven't found that pairing that I like yet. Mostly because I enjoy sweet business too much.

Recently tried running double specials, wondering how exactly it worked. I think I found your video before trying it, but only watched it afterwards. That said, it's good to hear the math on the subject, and maybe this might become more common loadout for me.

Don’t forget that chaining melees and grenades spawns a hella ton of heavy.
