Solo Flawless Master Duality on Warlock
159yeah it happened.
loadout timestamps + explanations:
0:00 start to colossus room
usual stuff. just a sniper, eager sword and tsteps. this is just to get from point A to point B and hit the bells without shooting them for 12 damage with an SMG
2:06 colossus room
I switch to riskrunner to tank colossus missiles and break their arc shields, nothing crazy here
3:10 galrahn
this is probably the most brutal encounter because your dps window is pretty tight and this encounter is just boring. there's a lot of death potential due to how quickly you can get stacked out by a lot of different enemy types, so I heavily suggest going for an arc resist mod + armor of the dying star. make good use of your void and glaive of dreams, and this can be a very comfy consistent 2-3 cycle in solo.
equip witherhoard, enigma (for void shields) and a void LMG (i use commemeration from DSC (perks don't matter, but I use reconstruction so I never have to reload and always have a 150+ bullet mag) - this is so that I can melt down the shades + the bellkeepers without needing to switch to the glaive, therefore enabling me to keep glave of dreams active
switch to glaive mods: finder, scavenger, unstoppable glaive and glaive of dreams (this mod just gives your "nightmare essence" buff a huge increase on timer and this buff makes you do big dps
switch from tsteps to starfire protocol so I can spam nades & rifts for safety
rally and win
25:15 galran to vault
eager sword, sniper, transversive steps, you know the deal here by now
28:10 vault
this encounter is a pushover in normal, this one has a deceptively high risk of death in master just due to how many enemies shoot you at once and how quickly. I argue that having arc resist (+that solar/void resist this season) is imperative, same as at galrahn.
switch to forerunner + sidearm perks (scav, finder & anti barrier sidearm)
switch to unforgiven + smg perks (loader)
keep eager sword on or else this isn't happening. you can see how close I cut it even just doing single flag realms. when I place the standards, I will do hotswaps from forerunner to witherhoard so I can nade spam the minibosses and try to maintain some ad density control. you can even see how quickly i bail on the well of radiance and how I'm trying to also nade ads at the same times dealing damage to the ultras, just so I don't get absolutely melted when I step out of the well
48:24 vault to caiatl
again, just kinda putting on zoomie boye gear so I can get through it quickly. I take my time on this with the succession sniper just so I can kinda deal with everything safely and not get shield glitched or something and lose the run 50 minutes in.

this one was the most brutal, because I really wasn't willing to risk it super hard during my dps phases since this was my first solo flawess master. I switch back to glaive mods, but you could realistically get away with an SMG or even a fusion rifle (reminder: null composure is still QUITE good and is void!). double special is not awful here by any means and I borderline recommend it. eventually, I just give up on the glaive and go SMG and it works out more long term for me. general approach was to try to have all my CDs up every time I went into the nightmare realm and after each dps cycle, try to clean up some ads so i don't get stacked out too hard in the event I fail to upkeep classy cancelling
1:32:02 push the win button
bad helmet drop
all for all, this is easily the most difficult thing i've ever done in destiny and I doubt i'll ever do anything harder than this ever
