all right my friends today we're going to glaive
school i'm going to answer some questions that i've seen in some of my other glay videos
and i also talk about some other stuff it's kind of a long video but it covers a lot of
important things when it comes to the glaive so give it a full watch through my friends i
will appreciate it now let's get into the video all right my friends tease monkey we're back with
another video and i'm making this video because i've made a few videos talking about exotic
glaives and other glaives in the game and i always refer to especially when it comes to the exotic
glaives the energy bar and you have to fill it up to be able to use the special ability on the
exotic glaives and the number one question i keep getting is where is the energy bar and i keep
saying it's the half circle in the reticule so if you're looking at the screen right now we've
got this big this little circle right in the middle with the three little lines coming off
of it in like the 12 o'clock position the four o'clock position and the seven o'clock position
right under that is that half circle so you'll see as i do range attacks now range attacks is the
only way to fill this up that it will fill up so pay attention here my friends so you see it boom
fills up boom we're almost at hat little over half and now it's full now when it comes to the
exotic glaives once it's full you can do the special move this is also your shield duration
so if you hold up your shield you will see that deplete so as you see i hold up my shield it
starts to deplete i'm back down the half right so to use my special ability i have to get it
back up to full so we will get some more kills and we're at full now to use the special
ability when it comes to the exotic leaves you hold in your reload boom he does it
for this one it's a lightning shot across the ground so hopefully you saw that again
we're at empty so we got to fill it back up so as you see as i get ranged attacks
it fills up i'll show you that melee attacks don't count so if we run up
here watch the bar bar stays the same so hopefully that clears that up for you let's
head into the next topic when it comes to glaives okay and the next thing we're going to talk about
is blocking so i've already filled up my energy bar there and i'm going to show you when it comes
to bosses most bosses have a stomp mechanic so if you get too close they stomp it knocks you back
does big damage with the glaive as you'll see here so there's a regular now if i stand up in his face of course i can block the damage
and you see i blocked the knock back gotta pay attention to your shield energy make
sure you have enough shield energy so once again boom blocked it and get some more
energy hit him a couple times boom now if i don't use the shield you
see knocks me back i take damage of course you can shoot while you got it up to to
keep your energy going as long as you have ammo in the gun so remember that because that can be
very helpful for certain things i know in the raid i've seen several people on the caretaker
encounter specifically if they're on stun duty of the caretaker they use a glaive for that
simple fact because you have to trigger him to do his slam move before you can start shooting his
face and shooting his back so they use the glaive to just stand there right up in his grill and
eat those slams so that's blocking my friends the next thing let's talk about the different
glaze in the different perks so right now we've got three exotic glaze
so you've got the hunter the warlock and the titan they each have their
own special perk when it comes to those exotics of course these are class specific the other
glaives are the enigma which is the craftable one and then you have lubria's ruin which is the drop
is a drop from rock the final boss in the new raid now when it comes to the enigma that's the
easiest one to get right because the game sends you through a quest on crafting
it so let's talk about perks here if you go and look on light gg and read and
stuff people are going to tell you do this do this do this this is the best combination but
in my opinion yes some of those are correct but it all depends on what you want to do with the glaive at that time so for example
let's take a look at some perks here the first one is going to be different things
considering around do you want your masterwork you can see it like that so if you see up at the top
this one says 10 handling 10 range 10 reload speed 10 shield duration and as you highlight them you
can see the stats down on the bottom start to change they need to make it so that this doesn't
cover it up but you can see the little green bar on the range there when i go on this one how it
adds 10 right so you can do that depending on your play style the next perk is going to come to
the half or what we like to call it is the shaft different things do different stuff so as
you can see you have to level your glaive up a certain amount in order to change what
you're looking for if you're using your sh glaive mainly to block and use the shield then
you're probably going to want to go with something like shield durations increases if you're looking
to actually shoot the range attack at far away enemies then you're going to want to look at
increasing the range so that your damage drop off is a greater distance when it comes to the
magazine of course it's pretty self-explanatory the one thing to pay attention
though is it's still on here okay appended mag and extended mag do
the same amount so if you unlock it so if i show you on a different one let me
do one of my higher level glaives here finally equipped so let's look at this one my opinion here is to go with something to increase the range i like or the reload
speed i like light mag because like i said appended an extended mag do the same
thing they each give you one extra bullet unless they've changed it it doesn't really make
sense to go with one of those now when it comes to your last two perks of course as you know through
the crafting system you get your basic ones that just cost neutral element and
you get enhanced versions so let's take a look some of these change some of these
don't so for example the enhanced grave robber melee final blows or load this weapons magazine
from reserves okay there's nothing really different there i think you might get the reload
speed okay yeah you get reload plus 10 versus actually it's four so the basic one you see
same thing let's just look at that reload speed it's a difference of four unrelenting as you can see this is
the enhanced one rapidly defeating targets triggers health generation guardians and
powerful combatants count as more than one target improves handling so pay attention to that stat if
i go down here and i look at this this would be 48 versus 52 okay these are expensive they cost
2 000 neutral element one alloy and then 70 of the corresponding other element so what
should you pick like i said it depends on what you want to accomplish with your glaive are you
going to be using it more like a sniper rifle well you probably want impulse amplifier and maybe
frenzy here okay so you get that bonus damage are you gonna be blocking a lot with
it well if you're going to be blocking may want to use tilting windmills feeding frenzy there's different combinations
you can use but the main thing with blocking is you want to set yourself up for shield
duration here so that one and this one now when it comes to my hunter of course if
you know with suppressing glaive and if you put the right fragments on on your hunter you can
basically go in viz every time you get a kill with the glaive so for my hunter i did grave robber for
the simple fact that i get in up close i'm using the melee attack a lot so what this can do for
me is you know if i want to shoot a couple ranged attacks and then bam finish them off with a melee
then i get an automatic refill of the magazine i also use unrelenting because again i'm in there
up close doing melee attacks and if i'm getting little red bars and clearing them out then this
is going to trigger some health regen for me now i've tried this in some higher end content
like master wellspring and i'm starting to think unrelenting may not be as good as because you're
gonna have to specifically target the red bars and there's a lot of more stronger enemies in
there big chunky knights yellow bars and stuff like this so the amount of times unrelenting
actually kicks in in that kind of play style may not be as beneficial as something like frenzy
frenzy may be a better option here so grave robber frenzy if you want a just pure out melee stick
okay so those are the perks so think about how you want to use it rampage could be another option
there as well but i feel like frenzy in higher end content is going to be the better combination
so think about how you want to use the glaive and then set your perks up accordingly as you
can see i have several different ones this is kind of like my ranged attack shooter and this
is my melee one like i said we're probably gonna change that unrelenting and this is a third
one that i haven't um really worked on yet so that's basically the perks and
how to set up your glaive like i said if you go on light gg people are going to tell
you oh use impulse amplifier and frenzy yeah that's all said and good if you're using it
for mainly ranged attacks but if you're using it for like the hunter play style where you get
in there and you're using suppressing glaive to stay invisible because anytime you kill something
that's suppressed you go invis then you're gonna want a different setup than that in my opinion
so set your glaive up to how you seem fitting okay and if you're still here with me my friends
we're gonna put a little bonus clip at the end and talk about the glaive specifically when it
comes to the hunter now this works with any glaive but i like the enigma the most because the enigma
works with volatile rounds on the range attacks but you can use the exotic if you want you
can use labrey as ruin same concept applies excuse me now the thing we're
going to talk about here is you may see hunters like they're always
invisible right in the pve stuff and if you're a hunter and you haven't figured out
how this is happening i'm going to show you so if you look in the void class you have to
start off with the aspect stylus executioner defeating a weakened suppressed or volatile
target grants invisibility and true sight keep that in mind weakened suppressed or volatile
targets so you can get weakened targets by using your grenade and running this right here echo
undermining so your grenade if it kills something it's gonna make you invisible you can also
go invisible from your dodge by running this this is why i run six coyote for two dodges
mainly but there's other benefits of it as well the other thing you have to remember is your
smoke bomb your smoke bomb weakens targets as well so if you throw your smoke bomb and the smoke
bomb actually kills them you'll go invisible or if you throw your smoke bomb weaken them and then you
kill them while they're weakened you go invisible when it comes to the glaive specifically you
have a couple of you have an artifact mod right here for the feet glaive or i'm sorry suppressing
glaive on the class item damaging combatants with your glaive suppresses them preventing them from
using abilities for a short time so this happens on ranged attacks and melee attacks so if you
see watch what's about to happen i run up to this guy and punch him boom i go invisible because
he got suppressed and killed all in one shot sometimes you'll see it doesn't kick in for
whatever reason but majority of the time when you're one-shotting stuff
you just go invisible every time and it looks like i never come out invisible
sometimes because i'm already in this and i get a one-shot kill it suppresses
and puts me in biz all in one so that's how that works like i said it works on
ranged attacks as well so if we let this wear off boom or suppressing streakers
makes them close up like that like i said you see there sometimes it doesn't
kick in for whatever that's probably most likely some kind of bug but the majority of the
time if you get a kill with the glaive you'll go in viz as you can see you just
keep it rolling sometimes it doesn't kick in on those range attacks when it's a one shot but
sometimes it does it should kick in all the time but it's just a problem when it comes to
one shotting with a range attack if it was a tougher enemy and you shot him to where
he was suppressed and then you shot him again then you would definitely go invis just like i
said it's an issue with the range attack sometimes doing the suppression and the kill all in one
but the melee seems to work pretty consistently and that's gonna do it for this one my friend so
hopefully you learned something and you figured something out hopefully i answered some questions
that people had give the video a thumbs up don't forget to subscribe as it's free and come on
over to facebook and join in on a live stream at fb dot gg forward slash tease monkey i'll see
you guys in the next one peace out guardians
