The video offers an in-depth tutorial on optimizing the Orpheus Rig build for the Hunter class in Destiny 2, emphasizing rapid super energy regeneration and effective enemy management. The build revolves around the Deadfall tether super, supported by Orpheus Rig exotic boots, which significantly enhance super energy returns and ability energy through defeated enemies. Key elements include utilizing specific aspects, fragments, and mods, such as Echo of Reprisal, Echo of Harvest, Echo of Starvation, and Trapper’s Ambush, to maximize energy gains and survivability.
Weapons like the Wish-Ender bow and Bad Juju are recommended for their synergy with the build, but the setup relies heavily on strategic mod usage: Reaper, Firepower, Dynamo, Utility Kickstart, and others enhance energy and orb collection. High resilience, mobility, and intellect stats are prioritized. The importance of coordination, especially when multiple players use similar builds, is underscored to ensure efficient energy refunds.
The video also highlights a strategic approach to team composition, recommending a blend of defensive and offensive supers, such as Warlock’s Well of Radiance and Titan’s Thundercrash, to maximize the Hunter's tether effectiveness. This team setup ensures safety, buffs, and consistent enemy clearance.
In conclusion, the video provides detailed guidance on creating a powerful and efficient Hunter build, emphasizing equipment, mods, and team strategies to excel in Destiny 2 gameplay.

In this part of the video, the creator introduces a powerful build for the Orpheus Rig tether in the game, emphasizing its exceptional ability to recharge supers very quickly, potentially within five seconds under optimal conditions. They explain that while constant super returns won’t always be this fast, a tether can typically be fired every 20 to 30 seconds, which aligns well with the 25-second duration of the Deadfall tether anchor. The video proceeds to detail various elements necessary to maximize this setup’s effectiveness, including aspects, fragments, mods, and weapons.
The creator then shifts to discussing a sponsor, War Thunder, highlighting its extensive vehicle collection, impressive graphics, and free-to-play availability on multiple platforms. After the brief sponsorship mention, the video returns to focus on the Deadfall Hunter tether super, describing its mechanics – a void anchor that pulls and tethers enemies, weakening and suppressing them, and increasing damage shared between tethered enemies. Next, the video explains the importance of the Orpheus Rig exotic boots which significantly boost super energy return and refund energy for other abilities, emphasizing their crucial role in maintaining constant tether use.

In this segment of the video, the focus is on optimizing the use of the tether ability in gameplay. Key points include the importance of targeting untethered enemies to maximize ability energy refunds and the need to use fragments and mods to enhance super energy gains. The Echo of Reprisal fragment increases super energy from kills when surrounded by enemies, while the Echo of Harvest creates power orbs and void breaches when defeating weakened enemies. The Echo of Starvation grants the devour buff for extended survivability and grenade energy on kills. For grenades, the Vortex grenade is recommended due to its synergy with the Deadfall tether. The segment also discusses two additional fragment options: the Echo of Expulsion for offensive play via void explosions and the Echo of Persistence for a defensive strategy to increase buff durations.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses their preference for persistence, particularly in endgame and contest mode content, highlighting how it fits their play style better than alternatives like expulsion. They suggest experimenting with both to find personal preference. Key gameplay strategies are outlined with recommended aspects such as Trapper’s Ambush for melee invisibility and quick fall moves, and Vanishing Step for dodging to go invisible, which synergizes with the Gambler’s Dodge to refund a smoke bomb for added invisibility. The speaker shares that these cooldowns allow for close combat effectiveness and maximize the Echo of Reprisal fragment for super energy gains when surrounded by enemies. They argue against using Stylish Executioner due to its circumstantial invisibility and highlight the importance of readily accessible invisibility for situations without a tether. Finally, they discuss weapon choices like the Bad Juju for its “string of curses” perk and the Wish-Ender exotic bow, emphasizing the latter’s buffs and efficacy in endgame content due to its infinite ammo, long-range damage, and anti-barrier capabilities.

In this part of the video, the focus is on the exceptional performance of the Wishender bow when paired with the Orpheus Rig setup. The Wishender inexplicably generates substantial super energy just by hitting enemies, without any specific exotic perk. Additionally, it has the ability to over-penetrate, making it highly effective against groups of enemies pulled together by the Deadfall tether, as it can hit multiple targets with one shot.
While these weapons enhance the build, they are not mandatory. Key elements for the build include a specific mod setup: Reaper on the class item, Firepower on the gloves, and a weapon siphon mod on the helmet to generate orbs of power. Powerful Attraction on the class item, along with multiple copies of Dynamo on the helmet and Utility Kickstart, increases super energy and ability to collect orbs through frequent Dodge use.
The boots should have two Absolution mods and one Innervation mod to boost energy for all abilities when collecting orbs. Additional mods on the gloves like Momentum Transfer and Bolstering Detonation enhance melee and class abilities by dealing grenade damage. The build prioritizes high resilience, mobility, and intellect stats.
The segment also advises careful coordination when multiple players use the Orpheus Rig build to ensure optimal energy refunds.

In this segment, the speaker emphasizes the importance of timing and location when using Hunter tethers in Destiny 2. They recommend a team composition involving a defensive super (such as Well of Radiance from a Warlock) and an offensive super (like Thundercrash from a Titan). The strategy involves using the Hunter’s tether to group enemies, employing the Warlock’s Well of Radiance for safety and damage buffs, and utilizing the Titan’s Thundercrash to eliminate enemies, with the Hunter collecting orbs to prepare for the next tether. They also suggest alternative super combinations for both defensive and offensive roles. Finally, the speaker invites viewers to ask questions during their live stream and thanks War Thunder for sponsoring the video.
