Voidwalker is a subclass of Warlock. Voidwalker is a damage dealing focus of the Warlock, turning the class into a glasscannon. It excels in solo-play and AoE damage. Voidwalker's super ability is the Nova Bomb, a ranged attack that causes an explosion of Void energy that can wipe out a group of enemies. Voidwalker's focus is their abilities such as Energy Drain or Axion Bolt.

  • Hurl an explosive bolt of Void Light at the enemy, disintegrating those caught within the blast.

Voidwalker Builds

PvE Builds

1. Nova Bomb Build: Obsidian Mind, Scatter Grenade, Blink, Shatter, Soup Rip, Arcane Force, Annihilate, Chaos Order and Bloom.

2. Energy Drain and Grenade Build: Scatter Grenade, Blink, Shatter, Surge/Life Steal/Soul Rip, Arcane Force, The Hunger, Chaos Order and Embrace the Void.

  • This is a well-rounded build suitable for various purposes. Fight at mid range, throw grenade whenever possible to activate Energy Drain. Use Energy Drain to reduce the cooldown of your grenade. Use Nova Bomb on a large group of enemy whenever it is up. Note that Energy Drain buff/effects do not stack nor refresh. Stagger your Grenade, Energy Drain and Nova Bomb at about 8 seconds (the duration of an Energy Drain buff/effect).
  • For armor use Skull of Dire Ahamkara if possible. It allows the player to spec into Annihilate instead of The Hunger. Legendary Helmets and Gauntlets with grenade energy from melee", "melee energy from grenade" and "super from grenade kills" are also useful. Weapons with Grenadier perks are also useful.

Recommended Stats

Skull of Dire Ahamkara is good for most builds.
