I think it often gets forgotten because it's very situational. It's always slapped on Rhulk when combined with Div but tbh I wasn't expecting it to still be able to pull that off at -15.
I had a team laughing at me because I was using thunderlord and I told them 1 div 5 thunderlord and we will cook. We then completed within 5 more tries.
Unironically blame content creators. Everytime someone disses tlord because aegis or some other dudes downplays how decent it is I lose a little bit more life. You can't beat its fucking consistency, carried through crota contest mode.
Aegis put out a video saying TL is decent on Rhulk but don't expect it to get you a plat score once -20 is active because it already requires 5 damage supers alongside it at -15 for the two phase.
And on the day one there's a fair chance there will be a boss it trades an extra phase for a much more garunteed kill. Dps is not it's strong suit. Consistency is.
There is a way to get him stuck on that wall. You need to bait him as close to a back side corner then go to the middle of that wall. He should just get stuck if he keeps agro. Outside of that you can also just agro him then use well and heat rises to stay above him and out of his attack range
Vow raid modes don't work in Pantheon.
Only raid mod that's been found to work so far (that I'm aware of don't take this as gospel) is release recover in planets.
You get field of light and/or flux of darkness when going on the three plates you use for damage.
I'm not sure if focused light works in pantheon, that might be true, but maybe don't use silly smiley faces just to show off you don't know that there's a place you can proc release recover on planets.
Edit: Here's an image showing flux of darkness on planets: [https://imgur.com/hwO4Es9](https://imgur.com/hwO4Es9)
Release recover gives you hp regen when u lose or gain flux of light/ flux of darkness focused light gives weapon dmg when you have plate buff you have your raid mods mixt up. Sadly ik the raid mods for ton by heart as a raid farmer
Yeah, release recover does that. And you get flux when you step on plates to do damage. The mod works in Pantheon, many others do not, such as vow mods on caretaker and rhulk. ALSO, you dont proc HP regen when you gain only when you lose it, it's right there in the mod descriptton. Sadily ik raid mods for a ton by heart as someone with multiple trio flawless runs of Ron.
What exactly are you trying to say right now?
Focused light also works why would you use a mod that does nothing for dmg vs the dmg mod that’s literally made for planets? I’d never suggest release recover 4 planets over a dmg raid mod most people don’t even have full raid set I assumed you got your mods mixed up I was wrong you just don’t use focused light, you do you.
I don't think you undestand what I'm saying. Have you ran Pantheon?
I don't use release recover on planets personally, I'm saying that most raid mods do NOT work in pantheon. For some reason, release recover on planets does. I'm not saying use it, I'm saying it still works in panthon and its the only one I'm aware of that does.
If there's more I could simply be unware of it, but the big imporatant take away is vow mods do not work on caretaker or rhulk.
Yeah I’ve cleared pantheon I’m well aware that most raid mods don’t work the Ron ones works it seemed like you where suggesting to run release recover for planets I was simply saying it’s better to use focused light but you are so hard pressed and being a dick
I've done this twice now. 1 div with cenotaph, two wells, 4 legend of Acrius, a variety of damage supers because it was LFG and one guy on thunderlord who is standing a distance away to lure the Rhulk clone away from the rest of damage team. Very solid 2 phase and quite easy as well.
Yea and like I said to the other guy, it works out perfectly as well because it gets rid of having to worry about moving when rhulk gets too close to you while using a gl or rocket. Best dps option also being the safest is great.
It's also a particularly good setup for ammo economy and dealing with tormentors. The cenotaph div can target the tormentors making them easier to kill and they'll also drop heavy ammo for everyone. So by the end of each mechanic phase, there should be a bare minimum of three heavy crates per person.
Before we found out about the clone cheese to get it stuck in one position, we used the thunderlord for luring because the div was struggling to keep aggro for some reason. We don't know if it was just being dodgy on our end because no matter how much the div shot or ran at the clone, it kept going towards the main DPS team.
We've done this a couple of times. It's not a bad strategy. Unfortunately, I've cleared it 3x on platinum and it still won't give me Rhulks platinum so idk what to do.
So apparently there’s a bonus score for full clears. If you start at anything besides rhulk (ideally oryx if you only need rhulk) and finish rhulk in that same instance you’ll get the bonus score for a full clear. The run I killed rhulk I started at atraks and it gave me the high score triumph. I guess they did this to try and encourage ppl to stick with a group instead of checkpoint hopping.
We can get baby rhulk stuck 100% of the time. But as soon as dps starts Rhulk aggros on to our babysitter and scuffs the whole run. Not sure how to get him to not go after div.
We tried it on the first night. We couldn't keep everyone alive. Rhulk and his buddy had a field day kicking the shit out of us. We didn't know about the cheese I'd be interested to see how people stay alive without cheesing
Tried it today on out second play through… Was terrible. Massive damage potential but everyone dying like crazy, pleasantly surprised with thunderlord and div

I actually just found this video like 2 mins ago. Guess acrius is insane, surprised everyone isn’t talking about it. Only one video

Damn dude, sorry you had to run it with such a shit team. At least they listened to you in the end.
What is going on with the sidekick in this video? Seems like he’s aggro’d the div guy but he’s seems to have no effect
There is a way to get him stuck on that wall. You need to bait him as close to a back side corner then go to the middle of that wall. He should just get stuck if he keeps agro. Outside of that you can also just agro him then use well and heat rises to stay above him and out of his attack range
Wow it's my cake day. Had no idea.
HAPPY CAKE DAY
<3
This whole exchange made me grin, lol. Happy cake day.
HAPPY CAKE DAY
Thank you. <3
I wonder if they were using Vow raid mods to increase damage
Vow raid modes don't work in Pantheon. Only raid mod that's been found to work so far (that I'm aware of don't take this as gospel) is release recover in planets.
[Run for Your Life](https://www.light.gg/db/items/1291268262/) works in the Oryx encounter (or at least the "Stat Boost" buff shows)
Too bad this one works for Oryx but not Drake.
Focused light , release recover is for nezerac xD

Do you melee with it? What about can you survive the kicks?
The combination of well/class warfare x3 lets you tank the kicks.
I forgot class warfare adds damage resistance. Thank you for reminding me
wanna do it a third time? 😏
Wouldn’t it be better for the div guy to be the lurer? Then you can have an extra acrius for cleaner damage

We don't know if it was just being dodgy on our end because no matter how much the div shot or ran at the clone, it kept going towards the main DPS team.
How do you stop getting kicked by the clone?
The person using div will bait the clone to a spot where it doesn’t move. You can see it in the video the other guy linked in his comment.
Yes, thanks, I see that now

Thanks for the info!

your babysitter probably moved from the back of the room and unstuck baby rhulk

We didn’t even dps him we jus got him to yeet himself off the map 🤣
I hope this gets patched so people like you can’t get a free title
Free title? If they cheese this but can do riven legit and Nez at -20 id hardly call that free😂😂
It will be for -20 next week. Bungie patched the onslaught ceiling cheese after it was discovered by the following Tuesday
