The Flying Support Warlock
What kind of build is this? In this build, the Warlock, in combination with Solar 3.0 and the noble exotic hand cannon “Lumina,” turns into a diligent medic.
This build is not DPS-focused and primarily cares about the lives of its fellow Guardians, buffing them and eliminating weaker enemy groups as needed.

- Exotics
- Legs: Stomp-EE5

How does the build work? In this build, your focus is clearly on support and handing out buffs to your teammates. With your Lumina, you eliminate enemies from a distance and collect the remnants of your foes. By collecting, you gain Noble Rounds for your support. To utilize these rounds, you simply need to shoot at your teammates from the hip.
This creates a white seeker sphere that seeks out your mates, heals them, and provides them and yourself with a temporary damage buff. Whenever Light Spheres are generated, you should always collect them. Using your healing grenade will return energy at the cost of your previously collected Light Spheres.
You can also consume the grenade to activate the perk “Heat Rises” and create a healing wave around you. The heatwave allows you to stay in the air longer and deal fire to your enemies as you get kills, recharging your melee.
In between, you can also use your rift. Thanks to the exotic boots, noble rounds also appear in your rift, seeking out your teammates and providing them, depending on the selected rift, with a damage or healing boost.
This is not an OP enemy-destroying build, but rather a warming support build. So, if the Well isn’t enough for you and you prefer noble performance with a hand cannon, this build might just be the right one for you.
