Would mirage prime count?
Yareli (yeah fr)
Ooooh I see a man of culture here :D
Well, she sure counted in the video xD
0:41 Cyte-09
4:16 Harrow
6:41 Gauss
9:11 Mirage
12:00 Saryn
14:33 Volt
Honorable Mentions 17:00
I’m a dirty gauss player
I sense a lie, a real gauss player knows we move far to fast to get dirty, any dirt that can mange to get on the frame is burnt up by the sheer speed we move at
G a u s
Speeeeeeeeed
I’m proud of you though
@@join-the-Hive-mind facts bruh
A "run and gun" video and Frost, Hydroid or Gyre not mentioned not even once is pretty wild
I was actually surprised that Blacky didn't mention Nyx/Eleanor as a weapons platform/gunner since with a specific mod you just press 4, become literally immortal for all infinity while moving around, albeit slowly and just go guns blazing, nothing can touch her. But she's also an amazing Crit damage dealer, personally I opted to use Reconifex with her, I have like 9x Crit multiplier on it and above 80% Crit chance (further multiplied by her Crit chance increase passive and other sources). Yeah, her as an immortal Crit gunner, she's pretty much like a literal Terminator :D
This. I’m fairly “new” and strictly play solo with no trading to see how far I can advance in the game and my Wrathful Advance Nyx lets me solo The Circuit to get both incarnon rewards. She’s dummy strong 💪
Not mentioning Nyx, frost and citrine is a crime for weapon platform warframe😢.
11:32 Sorry but I have to put on my Mirage-fanboy hat for a sec here
There is a complete gamechanger mod for Mirage that you didn't mention - there is an augment called Total Eclipse for her eclipse skill, which gives all allies within 15m the eclipse buff as well. It just so happens that her hall of mirrors duplicates count as allies, and are within 15m of her at all times. Therefore, for serious Mirage weapon platform builds, this mod is a must. In most of my testing, this build for Mirage (with Molt Augmented, not Arcane Avenger, because I'm rarely trying to get hit) will outdps any build I have come up with for Saryn. I currently run Mirage with Pillage and Saryn with Roar, and I consider Mirage to be the ultimate weapons platform, while what Saryn lacks in damage, she makes up for it with insane speed (max strength molt makes her go flying).
Mirage also comes with ease of use because her 1 and 3 have equal durations and can be recasted together, whereas Saryn's Toxic Lash and her Spores Augment (and Roar) all have awkwardly different durations.
Total Eclipse is also a great support mod in general, especially in defense maps where the team stays together, or when players camp in a room for survival. Sharing that Eclipse buff with everyone else is no joke.
thank you joe will be trying this
@@JoeSmith-st9lc Oh wow really? I use that augment all the time on my Mirage Prime but never knew that, thx man :D
Ayy my girl Mirage ❤
She still is my main to this day, there isn't much she can't do besides spy missions and the odd strange thing on steel path like solo interception missions.
Archon hunts, peanuts
Duviri steelpath circuit maxing(1 run), peanuts
1999 content, peanuts
I just love dealing 100's of millions of damage or hitting damage cap with her it's so satisfying 🥰
I have 3 mirage primes lol, she is such a versatile warframe when you build her for certain things.
I genuinely don't understand how Banshee missed this casting. Causing, with with beginner friendly build, enemies to take x11 damage from gun for all your team is beyond broken both as a weapon carrier and as a good teamate. Slap on it that it's 100% Helminth compatible with Rhino Roar or Mirage Eclipse, and that she come with added benefit of Silence which deactivate every eximus enemy in a huge radius, and I genuinely don't see what's not to like
Cyte09s 2 works on incarnon. Just fill your incarnon bar, transform in incarnon go on an ammo pack and press middle mouse button. Cancel the reload with your operator and boom. Enjoy before next hotfix arrives
Jade is one of the best.
She fully armor/shield strips an enemy and then also makes that same enemy 50% more vulnerable to all damage. And on top of that she increases weapon damage by alot.
These buffs work for the whole team. Bosses just dissappear.
She also slows the boss and heals allies so the boss can't do anything back.
Jade is quite the powerhouse, not gonna lie :D
Mirage with Hall of Malevolence augment and Total Eclipse augment does crazy damage.
Y'all sleeping on Gauss. Replace thermal sunder for energized munitions and build for duration.
Kuva zarr has 80 shots, virtually no reload time, no self stagger. The only thing it kills faster than your enemies is your fps.
Cyanex if you don't care about aiming or the need to see.
Exergis fires as fast as you can click.
Snipers are just hyper damage Letrons.
'Insert weapon with big drawback' + Gauss = fix + fun
Just use arcane aegis and subsume over kinetic plating. Thermal transfer is too good to pass up even with negative range.
Quick note about subsumes on Cyte. If one is wanting Roar, it will have to go over Ammo ability. DE doesn’t want us having two strong buffing moves on one frame.
I mean it would be pretty wild, wouldn't it :D
yeah cept lavos exist and does element infusion better and can have roar...
I use Lavos with valence formation, I don't care that Cyte-09 can do the same with a skill, I'm over here priming fool 24/7, he is just a Saturday guy
I'm looking forward to Lavos Prime :D
@@MHBlacky_ENG I see you are a man of culture as well
Nah Lavos can use more than a mags worth of element and cooldown abilities means you'll never NOT have that bonus damage and status.
fyi, you can’t replace cyte-09’s 4 with roar because his 2 is in the same category of damage buffs as it, eclipse, and xata’s wisper. nourish, shock trooper, and smite infusion are your only real options for damage buffs
I got so used to playing Gauss it got to the point where no other frame is fun because it feels like I'm playing in slow motion.
I’m surprised that Volts interaction with Melee influence wasn’t mentioned.
The electricity provided to your melee weapon with Volt can provide melee influence even if the melee weapon has no electricity damage modded on it.
That's a fair point ;)
I didn't go into it because I wanted to focus this vid on guns but I did talk about it in my dedicated Volt Guide ;)
@@MHBlacky_ENGfair enough - good video btw
Another thing to point with Mirage is that her augment "Total Eclipse" also works on her clones, giving them even more damage.
Yeah only problem is that it scales off of your frames range so if you don't build any range you can't really share it
@Darkkingdom666 34% range is enough for clones.
@@spakeschannel unfortunately I just wanted to hit 1,000% or higher which I did achieve but I use no range haha. I do have a weaker build that allows for more range.
Voruna is absulutely amazing for melee heavy attack crits
I personally like to use her with the Corufell, which goes something like this:
1- Build Corufell for as much crit chance and damage as possible
2- Build Voruna for as much strength as possible
3- On Corufell, equip any tennokai mod, though I prefer Dreamer's wrath or Opportunity's reach
4- When you get a tennokai opportunity, use her 1 to go invisible and get more damage, then fire the Corufell
(you can subsume her 4 for Roar)
Small correction on mirage: Hall of malevolence is fine, but it's Total Eclipse augment you want for that purpose unless you want to spend 2 mod slots and run both. Total eclipse spreads your eclipse % to every ally in range (base 15m mod by range both + and -). The clones are always within 5m of you so if you're solo or greedy, just slap as much eclipse buffing as you can on.
Edit: Prism guard augment is also beast mode for speedrunning fissures or playing her as a melee frame with like the dual ichor incarnon. First build you use infested mobility and praedos, second build viral tempest subsume with equillibrium and energize. Third build that I prefer to play for nuking: Kuva ogris heat progenitor with mirage total eclipse build and energized munitions absolutely demolishes everything. Make sure to have Heavy Calibur on the ogris instead of any other base damage mod. Makes it AOE harder (a truckload harder, test it and you will immediately see the difference) and Nightwatch Napalm makes everything burn to death.
Second edit: Total eclipse also buffs spectres, which means your Kuva Zarr crewmate now crits for 70m. Have fun!
I used Rhino Nourish +Roar to level up weapons for MR. Almost all of them are done by him. The combination of the two can make guns without builds killers. Him not getting mentioned hurts.
no koumei is wild considering her passive can be insane on a weapons build, same with her 2
Her 2 is incredibly circunstancial though, the only thing is her passive and she pales in comparison to these frames mentioned here.
An underrated part of sevagoth is the vulnerability and the added crit chance he inflicts on enemies with his first ability
Makes anything that doesn't die to the nuke take tons of damage with a weapon
Sevagoth is definitely a great Frame. Wish you much fun with him ;)
Nyx is just about the best frame for gunplay. Armor/Shield strip makes guns perform *so* much better, as long as you apply some radiation you get +200% crit chance and on top of all that the augment for her 4th (Assimilate) makes you literally invulnerable to all damage.
The only problem is that a lot of people don’t really like assimilate gameplay. I got 25% of my in game time on Nyx Prime, and I love how she makes you feel like a heavy juggernaut, but I think it’s understandable that it won’t appeal to everyone
Subsume wrathful advance on her 1 and you can teleport around even while in assimilate.
Frost with his augments is my definitive go-to. Boost to crits, gaining overguard, and freezing enemies makes him a strong contender for a gunrunner with my Miter or Chakurr
The one i have been having most fun to turn any weapon up a notch has been Jade.
Her whole kit outside of 4 is just more damage on any weapon for you and your teammates get the exact same benefits so you can turn their garbage into something worthwhile.
Now just helminth roar/nourish to replace 4 and look at the funny numbers.
Though 4 is still fun, but weapon buffer Jade is criminally underrated
Saryn turns any gun into the Geneva Suggestion
So good video, but I have to address a point you made about Saryn and Shield Gating, because it is just simply not true. Also, Saryn is my main and I have two Saryn Primes, one dedicated to making Weapon Buffer builds, and one to experiment with her Spores and Miasma for AOE builds.
Brief Respite and Blind Rage is all you need to make her viable for Shield Gating, as long as you use Molt. It allows you to be constantly running and gunning all while restoring your shields on cast, since it doesn't use any part of your Warframe's body for it's casting animation. Even without Catalyzing Shields, it has been a main staple for Shield Gating.
Xaku left the group ah moments😂
Rhino prime, only OGs will understand
Darn I payed sooo much plat back in the day for the Prime xD
Rhino mentioned. Giving me iron in another part of my body 😉
A few other honorable mentions I think are good:
Trinity- This one is a little bit of setup but using arcane battery combined with her passive, helminth parasitic armor, and champions blessing augment lets you get tons of crit chance when healing with your 4. You need to bring an animal companion as it gives you an easy heal target when you activate your parasitic armor. You are also incredibly tank and armor strip everything with your link. Currently my favorite gun runner other than Mirage.
Dagath- HUGE viral damage on any gun with her spectral spirit augment. Its fun running around invulnerable but the down time makes it a tiny but unreliable
Chroma- Very good health tank and the damage from vex armor is very good damage even though its only additive with other damage mods. Very nice to use if you dont want to run damage arcanes
Wisp- Its Wisp
What about Jade? Her Deathbringer ability can increase her and her squads weapon damage and her third ability also lowers armor/shields and slows.
Gauss is like coke. You can switch it up by trying others but you’ll always go back to your classic
You forgot Nyx, Critine(specially with aug spreading giant crit spots) and Dagath buffing CD.
Oh yeah, crit nyx is a thing now... can't believe I forgot... must have been mind controlled or something.
invisible every shot is a crit is wild. but do have to prioritize a lot of headshots
With Harrow? For sure ;)
gyre is absolutely my favourite weapons platform, with her augment shes able to keep up her 3 and 4 without needing to recast. now thats something every gun runner wants
Volt (built for max strength and range) + Capacitance augment (for suriviability) + subsume Norish (I chose the first ability) = monster in Höllvania.
It's crazy good on SP bounties. I like to pair with high forma Amprex for CC + CD. This build goes pretty hard for me :D
My face while waiting for Lavos to appear 😀
Forgot lavos with augment 😢 I tested it with a build for shield regeneration, Nourish and augment, arcane avenger... It's good!
I tried shield regen, but honestly i found that building for health and armour on him is better, ofc if you aren't going level cap
Revenant to never have to headshot or be afraid while invisible
Everyone please use Zephyr she is soooo underrated, she has survivability, crowd controlling she's great in defense, deep archimedia and so on❤
I just build her prime version. I am so excited to play her 🔥
Nah. She ain't bad but I will stay with Nyx.
Not putting zephyr on the solid list is wild. She turns every weapon into an aoe machine. What other frame can make the same use of single target weapons as effective
I love my boy Rhino. My current build I'm working towards an Umbral set up with Arcane Truculence and his Iron Skin augment with the ammo efficiency helminth ability and 4 duration archon shards. Makes guns that have a high fire rate insane for almost 10 seconds at a time at time of writing and trivializes Archon Hunts with Burston Incarnon and Roar
Where is snake boi? Where is Lavos with his Valence Formation?
No Kullervo? Pretty sure he is still only Warframe that can clear whole room with 1 non AoE bullet.
Collective curse works with every melee and gun.
My boy Rhino deserved to be here
100% should have been there, you build him for strength which gives him one of the highest buffs in the game, I'm kind of sad to not see him on videos talking about "best warframes" he's super tanky too, 😥 he may not be the top of top but he's great to play if you like to not panic about every thing
11:33 id use total eclipse instead of hall of malevolence, the clones from mirages 1 can actually benefit from total eclipses buff and even with negative range, 6 meters is more than enough to cover the clones. and the damage is actually higher than if you were to just use hall of malevolence.
Thank you, didn‘t know that
You forgot to include Revenant and replace his mesmer skin with cyte-09's invis for better survivability
looking forward ur Mirage video. Hope to see it soon
Lezzz go you made the harrow build
@JackDressekie I don't play Harrow and can't tell if his build is any good. But judging by his Saryn and Mirage (+ deleted and remade Wisp) builds he has literally no idea how to build anything. His builds aren't bad, they are doodoo trash.
Something to note with mirages 1, is that eclipse dosnt apply to the clones unless youre using total eclipse
Not using zephyrs increase in crit chance passive is a crime 🤣
Something I tend to do with Saryn is:
Replace 4 with nourish
Give her a Torid Incarnon (gas + rad) with galv aptitude and Primary Blight (can be replaced with a Kuva Nukor)
Run Venom dose
Watch as the armorstripped enemies recieve the bonus damage for every status efect they have (corrosive, viral, toxin, gas, radiation) and the beam bounces, killing heavies in 2 seconds
@@omoriperocondrip9130 sounds like very weak build. My Saryn can oneshot level cap trash and kill lvl cap demolists in 2sec
@@sadpug9398 "Very weak"
Still perfectly fine for 99% of content.
@ considering Torid kills enemies up to lvl 5000 in less then 2sec in hands of literally any frame, for Saryn this is pathetic damage. Gosh, I stopped using her with incarnons outside disruption, because her damage is so high you literally can't charge incarnons.
And tbh there are only 1 reason to use nourish on Saryn - for energy economy for shieldgating. If you really want to boost her damage there are only 2 options - Roar (if you play solo or selfish) and Eclipse (in pre-made team, where someone else can buff you with roar).
Roar is the best for her, since toxic lash triple dips from faction damage, leading to single dot doing more damage, than 10-20 bullets. You also don't need nourish for viral. She has raw damage and DoT's from her 3, armor strip from 1, so going for viral on your weapon is obvious choice. Using gas + radiation is a waste of mod slots.
UPD: yes, this guy's build is prefectly fine for most of content. WF is piss easy game. But Saryn is that type of frames that made for SP and lvl cap nuking, and this build doesn't show how absurdly broken she is.
Most missing frames were already mentioned in this comments section. Lavos can use all elements! This alone makes him a decent weapon platform. Revenant is also pretty nice since you can mod him completly for the weapons you want to use, since he doesnt really need anything, if you want to fight mostly with weapons.
You promised an updated Excalibur build. I need that in my life :X
Just run statstick ceramic dagger, with melee doughty, kullervos subsume on 4 and start one shotting everything with 1
Cyte's best subsume option imo is Ophanim Eyes. Perfectly complements his kit. You get armor strip and a nice slow effect to help you land those headshots better, especially on less accurate or low ammo weapons.
"some kinda fetish for big large integers" never thought id hear someone describe my warframe situation so accurately! (I'll add red to that as well, even though I can't manage to get those consistently half the time)
Kullervo and voruna the melee monsters 🤝
As someone with a Mirage that has a 1,174% eclipse, I can say she is amazing
How??? Best i can get is like 800 something lol.
@@bricevanderhoef4677you can look it up on overframe. Search "1000% eclipse mirage"
@bricevanderhoef4677 I use empower subsume and I have 5 tauforge red shards for ability strength and every strength mod on
To me, anything that full armor strips is a good weapons platform.
Caliban Enjoyers rise up!
Zephyrs passive is awesome too, you gain 150% crit chance while airborne
Pretty much every warframe is a good weapons platform for one specific weapon or all of them. Excals 2 blinds and makes enemies open to melee finishers, making it great for his already good passive buff to sword attack speed. Protea can buff shield tanking and provides endless amounts of ammo, energy, and health and slap on equilibrium and it's way easier to sustain with dispensary.
Revenant & Rhino: Am I a joke to you???
revenant CAN be a very good weapon platform but on default he doesnt give any buffs. rhino is definitly missing
Revenant + Helmith = Solved.
NEW VIDEO YEAH!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
I love you blacky
As a distinctly mid-skill player, Eclipse is still my go-to infusion to add defence to frames like Saryn. In addition to needing to get headshots to keep it up, invisibility feels very fragile to eximus nukes and infested poison clouds that don't need to see you to kill you. Whereas the 75% DR and a healing return weapon work great for the level of content I do (up to netracells) and if you aren't under attack, you can always switch it to kill mode.
With Yareli you forgot about her Merulina Guardian augment, gives +200% fire rate and reload speed effectively tripling your DPS.
I personally hope that one day someone will make detailed video about Kullervo and his possible builds and shenanigans. But unfortunately hope is jut a hope...
For Mirage, Total Eclipse (3 aug) gives the Eclipse bonus to her clones in addition of her 1 aug and full strenght she does so much dmg its ridiculous
omg finaly the video I was waiting for so long ( since begin of WF )
*Sigh*chroma gets no mention
Chroma for when you want to make sure you dont really need to press ability keys.
I'm a chroma main. We're rarely mentioned. Lol
I'm a Yareli main.
I'm good at using K-drives and can out maneuver many Gauss and Titania players and I do not like the fact that I am good at it.
I throw nourish onto Nezha (the most underrated speed frame) and zip around on steel path no problem
Both banshee and lavos can be great weapon platforms
Lavos mainly due to one of his augments
But banshee is weird that she didn't make the list, she has a option to armor strip, she can stop eximus unit abilities, she can masively boost weapon damage enemies take
Hell sonar can stack on itself and increase the damage further if the same spot happens to be highlighted twice by sonar, wich is not hard as its one of those abilities banshee does spam a lot when in a team
I love Banshee...I have always said she is higher on the tier list than we see players put her. Most players issue with her is she is too much of a glass canon. I disagree but that's me. She is not easy for a starter on Survivability. Later when you start learning how to survive you realize her silence is strong with helping aide you with survival. That alone will not save you. It most definitely can help a ton.
Lavos definitely goated
@@TPCvsJDU definitely She's my most played Warframe, and is a regular on steel path. 12X damage multiplier makes any weapon amazing. For me it's what weapon can I just paint over the enemy fastest with. I go back and forth between Prisma Gorgon and my custom Kit gun.
My girls Mirage and Saryn!! Mirages Eclipse is so powerful it literally carried me through Steel Path Vay Hek and the Tank Boss in Warframe 1999 lol and Saryn is my frame that I always pick if I don't know what I want to do because yeah she is just broken, I just don't have the perfect mods and archon shards yet lol
Since I'm not a gun player, this was quite helpful to give some ideas on what to do. Could we also get some "melee runners" ideas in the future, for melee players? Would be very nice to have that option too!
I've liked chroma for the tankiness and the dmg boost on weapons for a long time. And i think (haven't tried yet) that Banshee would be an interesting pick with her sonar augment now that all warframes can go invisible
Maining mirage since 2017, always know thats she can make every weapon work
Stug: "Challenge accepted" :P
I generally use Nidus as a weapon platform. Most of my weapons that I have built up are good enough not to need extra buffa from the frames. I just like him because of how easily he tanks damage with little to no setup.
since his rework, Inaros is just a better Nidus. the only thing Nidus had over Inaros was arbitration immortality, and now that Inaros got it, there's no reason to use Nidus over him. not only has he always had several times the HP of Nidus, he can now recover HP much faster, and negation armor makes him even better than Nidus
@dr.robotnikgaming9218 So?
@@shii5795 grow up by 11 years when people are trying to have serious discussions. Nidus lost the inkling of worth he had, and he was always rather squishy and needed a ton of building to be viable
@dr.robotnikgaming9218 I neither insulted you or told you are wrong. I just said 'So.' You may need to grow up instead.
@@shii5795 you used a word that's used exclusively by gen alphas in that context, as a means of not addressing my points. chances are, I'm at least twice your age, based on the conduct you're displaying
Nyx singe the rework has been my weapon platform frame :3
I understand that the warframes listed make any weapon STRONG but i was wondering if there are any specific ones that really go well with saryn and the other frames ?
Harrow is an absolute monster yet i only ever see him in duviri. Such a slept on frame.
as someone who has him as his top 5 favourite frames, there is a good reaosn for that
he is support, that doesnt work, and needs to be the main character in order to support, makes no sense
he is amazing solo warframe, which is an absurd thing to say for, again, a support warframe
He's weird to play in groups. He is amazing though
Surprised Garuda isnt on the list. Her passive increases all damage by 100% after killing some mobs and is very is easy to maintain this buff
honestly gun runners are my favorite frames in the game, harrow is my main, i just find the gameplay more interactive than a lot of nuke frames (not all of them though, there are definitely interactive ability-focused frames)
The guy did God's work in this... I'm new and really wanted to enjoy weapons more rather spam abilities... Thanks alot for this video 🙏 Here's hoping you make a video on best weapons per archetype soon 👍
Just a little add on Harrow:
Play him with Kunai incarnon, like..for real. SPECIALLY if you use Cyte's helminth, cuz Kunai's incarnon is aimbotted on headshots, so you could guess that its pretty good with his already op kit
Edit: Btw, dont forget he is not a SP room clearing frame, he is just chill and kill. Dont expect him to kill lots at the same time on steel path with his abilities.
I remember, i was using chroma while i was Mr 6-7. I didnt have any good weapon but it was my first prime warframe so i kinda had to use it. its %60 percent kit was useless for me and i didnt realize it. Welp now however i love using Cyte i even got his gemini skin and i get most damage every game 😆
Totally see that. Cyte is an absolutely awesome addition to the game :D
Wish you much fun with him ;)
I don't think Mirage's eclipse effects her clones innately, it does however effect them if you have the Total Eclipse augment.
I think. Not to sure, I could be wrong. I'm sure you'll find out when you look more into her for the video.
Wisp is the best because she makes my firerate somehow even better.
I like using Saryn with the 4th replaced with Xata's Whisper to get three gun buffs and the void procs give some survivability because of pulling bullets. But I run it with a lot of shields and Arcane Aegis. But my favorite frame in general is Lavos and he does a good job of buffing guns with whatever element I need and also being very survivable
Yeah, I'm not sure why she'd want Cyte-09's ability. Not built for shield gating? Molt's ludicrous for shield gating! Instant cast, no animation! For a weapons platform Saryn, putting Roar or Xata's over Miasma is just better, assuming you're willing to put up with shield gating.
@manoflead643 I mostly use Kuva Ogris with Nightwatch Napalm and just stay back and make zones that kill everything with it. I don't want to use a forma to lock her into brief respite and have other frames that I would rather put aura forma on so far
No rhio? The OG weapon buffer?
What about my boy sevagoth, he can literally turn any weapon into a Critical spreading machine
Rhino def should have been in honourable mentions section. Basic, but very strong gun buffing potential, especially if you subsume nourish.
Octavia have both damage buff and firerate/atkspd and she bring her own invis for crepuscular.
While all true, she's not really known for being a gunner, her disco ball does all the damage for her while she just stands at a distance watching it all happen, dancing.
Wait she has invis?
I tried Cyte-09 but was a bit disappointed. I think it works best when playing solo. So I subsumed it right after maxing it in Sanctuary Onslaught.
If playing in a squad. Team mates will be nuking the rooms before the player can pull out the exalted sniper rifle.
Then there is the difficulty getting headshots when enemies move too quick or frame skip animations. Some enemies are difficult to tell were weak points are. Or some are difficult to hit Grinner with their backpack blocking the back of their head. Because I prefer to play on controller, it's slower than a mouse to aim.
This is exactly why I believe Cyte is garbage the moment I read his abilities. Why would I ever bother with headshots, when Octavia has unconditional invis? Teammates can't ruin my life by nuking everything.
Gosh, my glue eater Wisp with Magistar literally ruined my teammate in void cascade run. He cried so much how he can't stay invisible because I killed everyone, so he stopped being 2nd attacker and went defending.
For disruption his wallhack is just a gimmick. By the time he'll cast his 1st skill, my Saryn will get to demolist and kill him.
In exterminates? In normal starchart there is no reason not to use Titania. In SP once again Saryn with Akarius nukes everything so fast that in past 4 months no one could get even close to my kill count. What can this camper do in speedrun modes?
In defense or excavation he is completely useless.
In team modes like survival or arbitration he has no place because of meta.
He's fine for solo play, as many other frames. But there is faaaaar better frames for literally everything in the game. Well, may be except Netracell, but I doubt he'll be better in solo than my Saryn
@@sadpug9398 I mean it always comes down to speed in non-endless modes. Probably like 75% of the frames are weak in Exterminate, Capture etc, starchart or SP. You could almost say normal missions don't even count, because so few frames are actually top notch at them, and those who are outshine all the rest.
That being said, his 1 and 4 are pointless most of the time, but his passive, 2, and 3 are good. I think people should discuss if he's better or worse than Loki, Ivara, Ash, etc. Also, the starting point of even making an evaluation should be that you can maintain his invis.
My favourite weapons (and overall) Warframe is Ash Prime. You get a ton of crit chance when invisible, combine that with the new crepuscular arcane for flat crit DMG and it's just INSANE.
honestly, cyte-09's survivability is criminally overrated. evade is his sole source of innate hp recovery, and you need to be constantly landing weak points, which means if you're playing warframe on anything other than a mouse and keyboard, your downtime will be at least 4x that of the uptime as warframe's aim assist is so bad that it makes no difference at all, in addition to evade's astronomical cooldown, on top of cyte-09 having abysmal durability. honestly, mesa is a better pick for a gun monster frame. she may not be able to innately bolster gun damage, give any non-battery gun infinite ammo, nor have innate hp recovery, but she has adequate durability, her regulators outperform cyte-09's neutralizer in raw dps, and her shatter shield blocks all ranged attacks, which is most of the types of enemy units
Does it work with banshees sonar?
@@jhemp no idea, but that would require either coop or a warframe specter with Banshee in it's loadout
@dr.robotnikgaming9218 I've not used it but isn't evade the skill that you subsume from cyte-09? And by putting that on Banshee you can do that solo, no?
@@jhemp that's like saying you can put petrify on inaros' dessication and he wouldn't be gutted...
banshee can't benefit from cyte's passive, use neutralizer, or give guns unlimited ammo. think before you say something so impeccably dumb next time. also, evade still has an insanely long cooldown and minimal return no matter what frame you use
@dr.robotnikgaming9218 I don't what climbed up your ass buddy. It's more about whether or not banshee can maintain a permanent uptime on invisibility. I don't give a rats ass about cyte-09s other skills which is why I asked about banshee. Think before you act like an asshole.
As a melee enthusiast, I'm kinda surprised that my boy kullervo didn't make the list. I love tanking everything with lycaths hunt while also dealing !!! red crits
Hey man I absolutely love your videos!! It'd be really awesome to see a similar video where you talk about the ability focused frames! I've really enjoyed the play styles of frames like Dante and Gyre and I'd like to know what your opinion on what the best ones are currently
I don't think gauss is perfect, he needs to scale his mach rush speed off of ability strength and sprint speed, and the slam should do more damage for the sillys. (I want to be able to out run a titania on a open map while they have full flying speed)
Mach rush only scales with sprint speed afaik so praedos sprint boost amalgam serration are go-to's
Zephyr is def way too underrated. my all time favorite frame :)
Yeah, she really got it going on :D
@@MHBlacky_ENG Zephyr's tornadoes turn any single-target monster killer into a room-clearing nuke. I've taken to using Stahlta modded for gas to fire a big charged blast at the tornadoes and putting a huge gas proc on everything in the blob, along with the blast itself hitting everything in the blob, and anything new that gets sucked into the tornadoes also gets sucked into a bunch of stacked gas clouds. Tornadoes work great for any weapons with blast damage, too. That was one of the first things I did with the Prisma Twin Gremlins when I got them. Blast damage, fire rate, and tornadoes, makes everything just explode.
I've actually taken to using Zephyr to level up ranged weapons instead of Saryn, because tornadoes can turn any single-target weapon into an aoe weapon for a Steel Path dark sector infested survival farm, and even with a non-potatoed leveling weapon with no other weapons equipped I can usually deal with the specters that show up, as long as they don't disable my powers.
