Ghosts of the Deep Ultimatum Guide - Best Weapons/Builds & Thoughts

Datto continuing to only ever call for nerfs on other classes besides the class he plays challenge impossible.

In order to give the other two greater freedom to move around and perform their duties, if you want someone to use divinity as the final boss, they can also use stronghold to aggro the boss or gain deepsight.

Doing this dungeon solo on explorer mode was PERFECT
Literally needs to be in every dungeon from now on

A strongholds titan is a game changer for the final boss. Just have them tank the wizards attacks while the other two players do mechanics. Then for dps have him on div.

Divinity makes your damage LESS do NOT use div

as one of the seven glaive user (please start using more glaives it's really good), just a tips : do not block while you melee, the third attack do way more damage now so it's better to do a full combo rather than just spamming the first 2

Ran an warlock ignition build with 1K Voices for ekthar for my team for large amounts of staggers and stuns which helped my team almost 1 phase with 2 LoW

Also you can't do navigator catalyst in explore

The glaive cancel thing is actually lower dps now because 3rd hit is 2x dmg

why does he keep saying "THEEE banner of war"?

Sorry, I’ll have to disagree on the explorer version. The directions compared to the spire of watcher left a lot to be desired.

THE banner of war aspect

Thanks for getting this out

Hope Bungie adds in an Explorer mode to all dungeons going forward. It'd be nice if they could also incorporate it retroactively to existing dungeons too but that might be too large of a feat for them to complete anytime soon.

How the hell do u get barricade energy back like these chunks ???

tried explorer mode with randoms and it went surprisingly well!

On ecthar since it’s a real easy 2 phase either way on arc titan may as well use skullfort if you aren’t doing the mechanic

I just did it for the first time. Solo, Adventure mode. Sorry, but this dungeon sucks. Spire felt way better to play. Most of the tip/info boxes were way too hard to read while being shot at by constantly respawning adds. To the point where I ended up running to opening section 5 times because I didn't know what I was doing. The tips/info should be something that just comes up on the side when you pull out your ghost so you can read what to do before starting the encounter.

I really hope they backport the changes they made to Ghosts into the normal dungeon once Rite of the Nine is over, would make it a lot more fun to run overall. Hopefully this isn't like Riven in Pantheon where they fixed the cheese but only in the Pantheon version.

Ran ghosts for the first time ever yesterday in explorer solo and thought it was super easy and straightforward to understand

We love hunters continuing to be the choice you make if you just wanna play hunter lmao. Bungie… please do something…

why with Lord of wolves we didn't do all of that damage?? Do you need any special solar fragment or artifact mod?

the changes have made this dungeon so much more tolerable imo. it was super cool lore wise and it looked insane but the encounters were so frustrating especially with ftf. its so much better now, even on the harder modes

I'm really sick of having to use the same weapons to DPS because it the best strat like..like to me choir of one is smacking too with and bait and witch fallen gulitine with vorpal or surrounded..with song of flame and whatever the other members want to use but I do not like having to put on the same weapons as every one else..

The problem with the final boss in Ghosts is the fact that she moves around a lot, For the average player they will miss some shots making queen breakers a little less optimal... In my opinion a safe strat would be to you Microcosm it wrecks the Final boss in Ghosts.

explorer mode made this dungeon much, much more enjoyable. This needs to be a thing for all PVE content.

I just want to talk to people who got upset that Bungie didn’t remove traversal section

Like do they work or are in school or college? Like do they know how world works? Or they just live off welfare/parents money

What void auto is he using?

In both bosses, what does the lighter portion of their health bars mean?

add DIM Link plz

After seeing your Titan at the end there I'm never following any shader advice from you ever again 😂🤣

Agree on the explorer mode. I skipped this dungeon entirely when it came out due to people saying it was a particularly difficult one. I was able to complete it based on the explorer mode with no outside help having no prior knowledge of the dungeon, so it is explained well enough, it’s just a touch awkard to stand in one spot reading while being bombarded by enemies.

This event seems so pointless theyve already said this gear will be mid in the new DLC and the content is the same.

IMAGINE STILL SUPPORTING THIS DOG SHIT STUDIO 🫵🤡

The issue I found with explorer mode was there waypoints don't seem to work after the second encounter. When I was doing it it would just highlight where the symbols are under water so many people Ive done it with don't know where to go to find how to get to the next section.

Thumbnail looks like they’re holding hands 😳

My take away from all these rite of nine tutorials. Basically don’t run hunter if doing it on ultimatum.

Why aren't you shilling for your overlords at Bungo?

how do you complete the second encounter without a titan?

You can actually one phase ecthar with two storms keep winterbite titans and a tractor, trench barrel perfect paradox, song of flame warlock

Why are you still playing this game?

There's a slight change you missed, but it's easily missable: you have less time when you start cracking the screen underwater due to lack of Oxygen. If not mistaken you have 2 less cracks before dying, which takes 1-2 seconds. But it's only noticeable in the 2nd encounter, if you're finding the runes and you consider the usual time (as I did)

hopped in to do the explore mode, finished first encounter, incandescent heal clip on No Survivors. Haven't taken it off since...

I have gone through this dungeon tons of times and holy God damn crap ultimatum is no joke. I get shot one time and my health goes down half way

So the game shouldn’t cater to casual gamers?
That’s fine I’ll unfollow you and your content as I have no use for you anymore. Thanks for the last 10 years

Ghosts was always a few tweaks from peak. Now it is easily in the top 3 (with Vesper’s Host and Warlord’s Ruin)

I think the issue with explore mode this time around, is that it's not always obvious where you need to go during the underwater traversal (walking off the edge at the red lights). It then leads to being really far behind your team and if you're matchmaking then you'll get pulled to the next encounter with no chance to rally or change your loadout.

Worst advice and repugnant dialogue in gaming. What a tool

Couldn’t even make it past the first encounter on LFG ultimatum
