GENERAL STRAT
So for the new strat you are gonna wanna be using heat rises, i personally use strafe glide as well since i am in heat rises 99% of the encounter. Running is the same, just grab your planets and move them to the correct spots while keeping the ads cleared enough for the next set of centurions to spawn. The main difference now is the damage strat, it is completely different as you'll see in the video. We still use Merciless with double impetus for the 1st plate(paired with the light buff if its a light plate). For the 2nd and 3rd plate tho you are using witherhoard with apex predator(recon/B&S) and heat rises for 2 icarus dashes to reload the rocket(rain of fire is the exotic used). For 2nd plate i do witherhoard then dump 6 rockets to push to 3rd plate, then dump the rest of my ammo there and the damage is cracked. For 3rd phase dps the idea is to SAVE WELL FOR FINAL, so i try to use my rift in place of where my well would be, but in this clear i did not do so because i almost died on 1st plate. I then use radiant for the dmg increase. Final stand is basically the same as normal dps phases just gotta have the ammo. GL to anyone running this, ill link the DIM builds below!
Running - dim.gg/jcrgeja/Raid
Ammo - dim.gg/ovgspty/Trials
1st plate dps(Merciless) - dim.gg/7s65ygq/PvP
2nd and 3rd plate dps(witherhoard/rocket) - dim.gg/ny6y34i/Delta
1st Phase - 0:00 - 4:10
2nd Phase - 4:10 - 8:10
3rd Phase - 8:10 - 12:20
Final Stand - 12:20 - 12:50
Reaction - 12:50 - 13:16
