Why This Exotic

Every Arc melee kill heals you and refunds melee energy, so a Thunderclap kill immediately returns another Thunderclap.

Why This Set

2pc Iaido: freshly-drawn or reloaded weapon kills heal 35 HP; 4pc Unfaltering Focus: bow/shotgun/sword kills grant ~10% damage resistance. Fits the in-melee Thunderclap playstyle — a shotgun or sword swap-kill tops you off and the DR buys survivability while you stand in melee range charging the next clap.

  1. Drop your barricade — Storm's Keep creates an ionic, Jolting field that keeps you Amplified with faster melee and class regen.
  2. Charge Thunderclap and release it into a target.
  3. An Insurmountable Skullfort heals you and refunds melee energy on the Arc melee kill — so you immediately get another Thunderclap.
  4. Knockout adds healing and an empowered melee after a shield break or melee kill.
  5. Punch, heal, refund, repeat — keep Multimach CCX kills up for Amplified between punches.
  6. Save Thundercrash as a panic button or burst DPS.
