Hey everyone! I’m looking for some solid recommendations on class and weapon setups for tackling Raeniks and Puppeteer in the Vespers Host dungeon. I’m mainly focused on getting those exotic drop boosts and really don’t care about going flawless. Any tips or strategies would be greatly appreciated!

From a Warlock’s point of view, I swear by Riskrunner with Feed the Void for staying alive during encounters. For the second one, I go with Star Eater Nova Bomb and Dimensional Hypotrochoid for the damage boost. I’ve also swapped to Sanguine for the third phase, using Queenbreaker for maximum damage. Rat King can be great for handling mechanics without getting in the way, so keep that in mind too!
If you’re going solo, the Titan class is your best bet for this dungeon. For Raeniks, try running Star Eater Glacial with a Tractor Cannon to deal some serious damage. Pair this with a rocket launcher and a good sidearm to quickly handle those pesky Exploder Shanks. You can usually go for 3-4 phases depending on RNG. For Puppeteer, an Arc Titan with Queenbreaker will make things smoother; a well-timed Falling Star helps for an efficient three-phase fight. Skullfort is great for mechanics but use whatever helmet feels right to you!
Is Star Eater Glacial really better than Syntho Glacial for damage?
I managed to get pretty close to a three-phase on Raeniks with an Arc Titan setup, using Storm’s Keep, Queenbreaker, and Supremacy. Just be careful with your timing on T-Crash (especially with the Cuirass). I stayed right behind the nuke bunker for cover, focusing on extended damage phases and timing my T-Crash for the second one after depositing.
I actually used The Call with Beacon Rounds for the Raeniks fight, and it was pretty effective against the shanks!
