This is a build aimed at one-shotting Graveward, without glitches, crit-swapping or forcing action skill ends. The same principles can be used to one-shot any boss, though different timing might be needed.
The main principle here is that Violent Momentum damage is added when shooting, not when the projectile hits. Because of this, weapons that spawn a lot of extra projectiles (like the Hive, Scourge...) will have Violent Momentum damage added to all spawned projectiles. This makes these great for mobbing too: just slide, shoot your Scourge into a mob, and watch them melt.
Basic strategy:
- Jump down to the arena, activate the barrier as you're landing (make sure to NOT activate it too soon and cancel the action skill)
- Activate the Clone immediately after.
- Run forward, slide and almost immediately shoot. You have to get a feeling for the timing a bit, you basically want to shoot when you're at your fastest.
- At the edge of the platform, swap with your clone.
- Immediately after swapping, you hold down the key to destroy the clone with doppelbanger.
- The clone should explode just before the projectiles hit Graveward, for added 'on action skill end' damage.
Gear you need:
- A Scourge with elements specific to the boss you want to kill.
- An infiltrator class mod. Any points in Violent Momentum or Super Sonic Man will do.
- A Snowdrift relic, any one will do.
- A shield and grenade mod that have elemental damage on action skill end. Elements specific to the boss you're killing.
