Glitch Infinite flechette storm in portal activities during solstice

With solstice releasing we’ve got solar flares in (all?) portal activities and there’s a slightly unintended interaction with flechette storm. Disabled aspect incoming.

Edit:

Well, it was fun while it lasted. Pack up your things everyone.

Close enough, welcome back melee upgrade from coil

Portal Coil is so much better than regular Coil bc of this. You still get the activity upgrades plus the portal modifiers. I was getting 5 second grapple grenades with grenadier plus the 500% grapple regen speed from Riven

thats odd because when i did the run for data pads it felt like the 300% melee/500% grenade charge wasn't really doing anything.

Used to be able to get unlimited melee in Scorn Onslaught too, brought my frame rate grinding to a halt doing it with Wishful Ignorance

This happened one time with the kindling balls for the bonfire. It was very fun.

u/Killerrobotkai Aug 05 '25

is this weirdly inconsistent for anyone else? sometimes when I pick up the ball it activates fine but then I can't get it to activate ever again

u/SourSeaPickle249 Aug 05 '25

Your keybinds for auto melee, uncharged melee, and charged melee might be different. Try to disable auto and set charged/uncharged to be the same.

Sorry, should have clarified, only works once per ball

u/fairy-wale Aug 07 '25

You need to have at least 1 fully charged melee before picking the orb.

Bruh they decimated Speaker Sight for existing... Prepare yourselves Bungie is on a warpath again

Edit: Ofc it's only one person that gave me an actual response lmfao this sub is a fucking joke

"Decimated for existing"

First of all, it was one of the strongest Warlock exotics without a doubt, and making it not shoot until you're damaged didn't do anything to its power.

Second, it went down to 9 seconds, which is still 3-6 potential full heals + Regen x1 on the grenade with the shortest cooldown in the game on a subclass that vomits grenade energy. The exotic isn't dead because the uptime for a single turret is no longer so long you could have 2-3 active at once.

Flechette Storm is very obvious overtuned but the most we can hope for is that they let us have fun with it for a little bit, which they have a lengthy track record of doing.

Every class is a walking nuclear bomb right now and yall still cry about a healing helmet

u/DatBot17 Aug 05 '25

Yes because everyone i play with sucks at keeping themselves alive so it was my job and now it is so much worse than it was

u/otakudave Aug 08 '25

THIS EXACTLY

u/ComfortableBell4831 Aug 05 '25

I'm gonna save this comment of yours when hunters start bitching and moaning when Warlocks stop support healing y'all because our niche Support exotics keep getting nerfed lmfao

u/SVXfiles Aug 05 '25

Bungie doesnt want any support from warlocks except dropping a well, but not right there because then the sword is in the way and i have to move 2 inches

u/BaileyPlaysGames Aug 06 '25

I've never once given a damn if a warlock support healed me on hunter. What're you talking about?

u/Magenu Aug 05 '25

You cannot seriously be defending this.

u/MookieV Aug 05 '25

Noooo keep it hid

u/Wanna_make_cash Aug 05 '25

For some reason it doesn't let me use flechette storm when holding the ball

4

u/Edit-The-SadParts Aug 05 '25

You need to unbind charged and uncharged and bind auto melee. I’m not bothering lol

u/Ryan_WXH Aug 06 '25

You can press both buttons at the same time and that works.

Doesn't seem to work for me on xbox.

u/gnappyassassin Aug 07 '25

This may be because I split my melee controls off default.

u/DerpDeer1 Aug 06 '25

If I had a nickel for every time a slide melee had a weird interaction with a relic from a seasonal event, I’d have a suspiciously large amount of nickels

u/Steeldragon555 Aug 06 '25 edited Aug 06 '25

So it seems inconsistent or you can only eo 1 infinite flechete storm per ball. Because i have used it. Stopped using flechete storm then tried to use it again and it won't work

u/bikpizza Aug 06 '25

the boss damage lmfao

u/QuintillionthDiocese Aug 06 '25

Solar Flares also blow up the Mounds in caldera without having to shoot the vex boxes

u/pandacraft Aug 06 '25

Strand tangles do it too

u/PlatformTraditional5 Aug 09 '25

Does this work with the ruinous effigy ball too?

1

u/TheTrueClockWork Aug 09 '25

So as it turns out, you (MAY) be able to cheese like 2 of the 4 mythic keplar capsules solo with this combo.

u/euivanov 28d ago

You can get the solstice ball in Kepler outside of the Solo Ops mission?

1

u/TheTrueClockWork 28d ago

Sorry, just now seeing this. Ya, you were able to. Dunno now tho

u/Loud-Bit-5927 25d ago

Still works, just have to have someone toss one to you WHILE in the air

u/futon_potato Aug 06 '25

I mean there's nothing really competitive you can launch pve wise from the portal so meh. Be different if the modifier was available in dungeons or raids.
