Allies also shooting the target doesn't really make it better, in the end it still results in needing lots of hits to strip - likely more than it's required to kill.

It still sounds like this is all more due to Verglas being OP than anything to do with Citrine, if it alone accounts for instant 80% armor strip. With a companion, shards and corrosive weapon even Loki can fully armor strip then, it has nothing to do with the wf or prismatic gem.

I'm not saying it doesn't help, each free corrosion stack when near Citrine helps a bit even if you dont equip emerald shards. In my experience though, in practice, it's easier to just cast pillage, immediately fully strip that thrax centurion and oneshot him than depending on corrosive stacks building up. It's just too slow.

edit: You mentioned mutlishot boltor, I dont think prismatic gem triggers off multishot otherwise shotguns would be completely busted with it. Shooting an enemy with a single shotgun blast doesn't proc the gem a dozen times afaik, maybe it has an internal cooldown.

The perfect warframe.

DR: check
Self heal: check
Energy generation: check
CC: check
Damage: check
Status priming: boy do i even need to say it
Synergy with other weapons: check (both status and crit)
Decent default range and duration of abilities: check

She's one of my main go-to frames for difficult endgame content and she never lets me down. The only thing she lacks is armor strip but this is easily solved by helminthing pillage over her #4, if you don't want to build around it anyway. I've also seen people talk about doing it with green archon shards and corrosion status but the math never checked out for this for me, it takes way too many hits and too long to fully strip an enemy this way.

I didn't know people had issues with her acquisition, I got a few parts out of the mirror defense and then bought the rest with the currency. It was one of the first frames with the pity currency mechanic and i thought people were happy enough with it ngl

Also, we're really due for a skin for her! Wish we get a deluxe soon

I know it works well, I just personally really dislike the concept of shieldgating. what do you even dump in favor of pillage, her #1 ability?

[-] Kaldo@dormi.zone 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I never got her to click with me but I recently took her into a SP circuit and holy hell... that was a wild ride, electricity procs for ages all over the map. Tons of energy to spare, electricity procs from various weapon decrees, it was amazing.

The only issue, as usual with frames that don't have any built-in defenses, is lack of DR to tank higher level enemies, so you either gotta shieldgate or dodge and toggle operator like a chipmunk on heroin I guess. I do like how all her abilities fit together though, none are free helminth slots.

I've been procrastinating obtaining these for years but now I'm thinking that I'm missing out. I was hoping someone needs any mods from syndicates I'm friendly with and would like to exchange some.

I am negative with New Loka / Perrin Sequence so I'm offering any syndicate mods (or other items) from the other 4 syndicates in exchange. I'm missing 13 mods from Loka, not sure if there are any unique ones in Perrin.

Can be available in afternoons, central EU timezone

I just took anything synergizing with cold damage and put it on Frost and it works pretty well!

Frost

  • Biting Frost augment
  • Arcane Ice Storm
  • Freeze Force augment
  • Icy Avalanche ofc

Tenet Glaxion

  • Shivering Contagion
  • Primary Frostbite arcane
  • Photon Overcharge (still missing this one but soon I'm adding it too)

Glaxion melts everything in front of you, spreads cold like crazy which also adds ability strength and duration due to arcane ice storm, you have huge crit chance and dmg, you have excellent armor strip and can easily generate overguard.

Since no merciless on glaxion you have to run serration but if I had max rank arachne I'd maybe try that instead of arcane grace once I have photon overcharge from NW. Am I missing anything else thats fun and that could be added to the mix?

Not sure if I should go with vile acceleration on glaxion or maybe add something like hunter munitions or bladed rounds instead.

In any case, it takes a bit to set up the whole build but it feels very thematic and flexible, Frost really becomes even more of a powerhouse with it, I only ever used him for his bubble until now.

edit: I'm also thinking about what to subsume over his #2 since it seems kinda useless, it is low damage and you have plenty of cold procs even without it. Nourish might be the boring but safe option?

I guess we're waiting for the akmagnus incarnon adapter? :P

[-] Kaldo@dormi.zone 3 points 2 months ago

I remember reading that Secondary Encumber only works on the first target hit, not on any other chained beam victims, so its not that good on nukor though

[-] Kaldo@dormi.zone 5 points 2 months ago

I am so on board a 1999 boyband / 2k virus infestation crossover, it's such a good idea to connect these 2 places/times and introduce the long awaited liches too

The city open world looked amazing, I just hope they kept it not too big, and they never add archwing to it

Other than that not a lot of solid announcements or even news, but tbh I've been feeling pretty confident and optimistic about WF since Rebb took over so I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt and let them cook.

Onos thoughts? (dormi.zone)
submitted 6 months ago by Kaldo@dormi.zone to c/warframe@dormi.zone

The entrati armcannon doesn't really seem to live up to its hype - the normal fire is just slow rifle-like fire with no aoe or punch through and the incarnon mode seems to be a big short lived beam with low damage, short range and width, and can only fire a few times before running out of charge.

Am I missing something, like how to build it, or is it really underwhelming?

[-] Kaldo@dormi.zone 4 points 6 months ago

Yep, it's been really painless! I even got all other weapons after a few hours of grinding (onos and ruvox). As a thanks to DE I then spent 50 plat to rush the foundry which I usually never do๐Ÿ˜

[-] Kaldo@dormi.zone 4 points 9 months ago

Absolutely, you can completely ignore melee efficiency now since you get free fast heavy attacks every few seconds while attacking.

It's busted as hell but I really like it. It's a simple change in the overall gameplay but having to look out for this quick popup and being rewarded with a free heavy attack is such a neat addition to the experience.

I've pretty much switched to Naramon on all frames because of it.

[-] Kaldo@dormi.zone 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Then both my ingame experience, and the wiki that says

Strike Doomed foes with Wyrd Scythes to trigger Phantom Wrath, while refreshing Doom on the targets hit and spreading the curse to other enemies within a AbilityRangeBuff10 / 12 / 13 / 15 meter radius around the Doomed foes.

are wrong I guess. I can't test it rn but will later, but it doesn't really change the original point that much, just makes it harder to apply if true but not impossible since it isn't that hard to press 2+1 on a group of enemies

edit: Played a bunch with her and the doom effect definitely spreads on hit, not on kill.

For example the new grimoire needs to kill enemies in order to proc its bonus. Trumna needs to kill enemies to get alt-fire charges. You need to land the killing blow to proc Merciless.

For those who don't know, the Wyrd Scythes+Doom combo places a mark on enemies that gathers/stores damage for a few seconds and when that damage exceeds the enemy's remaining HP, it triggers and kills them with true damage.

If you're playing Dagath and using your doom abilities, are you inadvertently kill-stealing and making it impossible for your allies to complete these on-kill challenges? Or for that matter even for yourself?

[-] Kaldo@dormi.zone 4 points 11 months ago

I love Ember, she's got it all. Energy economy with the augment that makes her #4 generate orbs, high damage reduction with #2, armor strip with #3 and all the fire going on... She's good all around (well, unless you go for high lvl corpus missions) The resource management is satisfying and the rework was a huge success IMO.

Her #1 is the only outlier that seems kinda boring and useless, I tried replacing it with nidus's larva to group enemies together for her #4 but it has such a short pathetic range by default lol, and its even less useful nowadays with all the CC-immune eximus units running around.

I really like her abilities but to be completely honest I haven't figured out what kind of a build to go for on her. Damage seems good even if you just spam and spread doom around, #4 is a really good "ohshit" button when you find a large group of enemies that need killing, but her survivability seems a bit low, she doesn't have any damage reduction or even healing abilities by default (and low base armor value as well). She seems overall solid but doesn't really excel in anything and doesn't do anything extraordinarily fun?

I kinda mitigated the low defense with a few blue armor archon shards, as for healing her signature melee weapon can restore health but it seems like bad synergy - her #3 boosts crit weapons but her Dorrclave is a status weapon? So that seems like a trap.

Adaptation, arcane grace and her #3 lifeguard do a lot of heavy lifting but all in all, it doesn't seem as reliable as other frames. Maybe subsuming gloom would help but I'm not sure what to replace, and that's kind of a boring thing to do anyway.

So anyway, any thoughts, how have you been playing Dagath so far?

Now that we're not locked into 1 or 2 companions that can't die, we can finally start using them to fill the gaps in our warframe's arsenal! Did you find any good uses like that yet?

Looks like Helios is a pretty good armorstrip bot now, combining the Deconstructor with Vicious Bond.

Dethcube seems like a good fit on energy starved warframes thanks to its energy (orb) generator, possibly combined with Duplex Bond? Dunno if companion weapons ever get strong enough to kill high level enemies on their own though

I was thinking about trying out a Chesa for survival missions when you don't have a Nekros but I dunno if Retrieve helps at all since it only fires off every 10 seconds with a 45% chance of success

What kind of stuff have you tried?

[-] Kaldo@dormi.zone 8 points 11 months ago

Also, we got new redtext very fast!

Can't believe 44 mad lads actually bought it for 10k plat
