Broodweaver subclass background

The Broodweaver is a Strand-based Warlock subclass featured in the Lightfall expansion.

Lore

Broodweaver

If it's an army I want, it's an army I get. Little friends on demand, allies on speed dial. No accomplice is more loyal than the one I pluck from the sprawling weave of the universe.

Am I my creations? I fill their minds, though I remain undivided. I feel their movements and their pain, yet I stand still, unharmed.

The sensations of manifestation are odd. I understand where my body begins and where it ends, but the lines are now stretched, as if I am wound into the very air around me. The strings of my will extend in every direction, and when pulled taut, the puppet master begins their show.

Abilities

Super

  • Needlestorm:Conjure a hail of deadly woven needles. After embedding themselves in the environment, the needles will re-weave into a host of Threadlings. Threadlings you create will return to you and perch if they can't find any nearby targets. Damaging targets with your weapons or melee will send out perched Threadlings to attack.

Grenades

  • Grapple - Creates a thread to swing over wide gaps or to quickly traverse the battlefield. It can also grab onto enemies to pull you closer to them, objects in the environment, tangles, and even other Guardians. During and shortly after grappling, melee to perform a grapple melee, dealing bonus damage and unraveling them.
  • Threadling Grenade - Summons 3 threadlings to fight for you when thrown.
  • Shackle Grenade - Creates a bola that then suspends nearby targets and creates secondary suspending explosions when thrown.

Melee

  • Arcane Needle: Sling a woven needle that will embed in your target, unraveling them. Activate your melee ability again to chain up to two additional attacks.

Movement

  • Balanced Glide — Glide jump ability provides bonuses to both speed and control.
  • Burst Glide — Upgrades Glide for strong speed boosts.
  • Controlled Glide — Glide jump ability provides better directional control while in the air.

Class Abilities

  • Healing Rift — Conjure a well of Light that continually heals those inside it.
  • Empowering Rift — Conjure a well of Light that increases the attack power of those inside it.

Aspects

  • Weaver's Call (Your call weaves a path into existence. A chirp rings out, eager to answer.): Cast your Rift to weave three Threadlings and deploy any Threadlings you have perched. Fragment Slots (2)
  • Mindspun Invocation (Formless, shapeless… until you say otherwise. Shape reality as you see fit.): Your grapple, Shackle Grenade, and Threadling Grenade have enhanced functionality. Your grapple melee spawns three Threadling eggs. Shackle Grenade: Hold to consume your Shackle Grenade and activate Weaver's Trance. Final blows while Weaver's Trance is active create a suspending detonation. Threadling Grenade: Hold to consume your Threadling Grenade and immediately generate five perched Threadlings. Fragment Slots (2)
