Lots of people commenting about using his augment for primary weapons so I'll just pin this here.
Use a different Warframe that's better at that instead of forcing Nidus.
facts!
I am using it but want to change to this one cause it is way better i did change larva for ensnare to have a easier time with acolyte :D
I made a no forma all Umbral build that works fine in SP. of course dummies complain that there was an empty slot, haha.
Different warframes such as? what are your recommendations!
rhino chroma protea there’s a lot more
Worth noting: You can't recast his 1 while it's still traveling. However, if it hits a wall, it stops sooner. This lets you cast it faster over a period of time and therefore build stacks faster. I would recommend that when you're playing Nidus, you try to bunch up enemies near some kind of wall-like surface that you can use to speed up your stack gaining.
good shout!
Nice thanks
I was wondering why I couldnt spam my 1 in certain situations. thanks!
or use natural talent?
@@darndang6050 Natural Talent has a pretty big opportunity cost. Nidus wants a lot of things (HP, armor, damage reduction, power strength, even range), and you can negate the problem of his 1 being locked out by how you position yourself.
For comparison, a Warframe like Limbo is always going to take the same amount of time to cast his 4 regardless of how you position yourself. That's not the case with Nidus.
So it's more advantageous for Nidus to just pay attention to how he positions himself, and then have that extra mod slot for something else, rather than run Natural Talent (which still ends up locking out his ability for a significant amount of time if Nidus screws up on positioning).
Legit i had no idea those "hold 1" functions existed. That's super dope
I played Nidus for two years without knowing until Brozime made his Nidus Deluxe video
I wish simulacrum had an option to give enemies steel path stats
Level 150 is pretty much laughable compared to 300 in this game.
It really should
Your wish has been granted
I've been using a similar build on him. I prefer augur reach over secrets. The range I feel is a lot nicer for larva
tbh replacing larva with ensnare is another good option
@@セツノナナシ ensnare > larva all day. You can lock down multiple groups and they sit still after you group them. So much more efficient
@@BANANA42k what about Airburst?
Great video, Nidus is great and I threw 2 umbra forma on him to play around with builds.
I have a second build that goes all in with strength and his teeming virilance augment to make a lot of primary weapons do ridiculous red crits. It's overkill but fun.
8:11
Brozime: Nidus can’t kill acolytes
Me: Laughs in Teeming Virulence
Highly recommend using Hunter Adrenaline as it completely negates any and all energy problems on Nidus Prime for me. Love the build though, I've only got 1 umbral in my Nidus Prime and I've been able to take him into deep SP survival runs
I was surprised he didn’t use hunter adrenaline, I can’t imagine not. Especially against infested where you get energy drained a lot if you’re not careful. You can get full energy back incredibly fast no problem.
If u have negative efficiency on nidus his 1 can recharge energy so fast that hunter adrenaline is a waste of slot
some cases like energy drain tho
@@themaninthewall2726 you're gonna be using larva more than virulence to kill. Virulence is good for stacks but it's not going to match the damage of a spray and smack from weapons.
@@1000HoursAtTheLibrar Recently I have been considering to take hunter adrenaline off. 90% of the time I don't actually take enough damage to make hunter adrenaline worth it. Enemies are either CC'ed or I take so little damage with high armor, adaption and his link that I don't get enough even when I get attacked from everywhere.
Getting ready for the release of Ridge Wallet Prime though.
I would really recommend using vazarin with nidus or really any tank based frame that also has a way to supply themselves with energy.
I usually use vazarin with magus cloud and hop out of my frame, dash through my frame, and hop back in and I get 5 seconds of invulnerability and 60% health regenerated. Zenurik does pretty much absolutely nothing for warframes like nidus that never need to worry about energy.
Also if you're using nidus for anything other than steel path, or even non-endurance steel path missions, I would really recommend replacing adaptation with something like constitution so you get a nice duration bump and don't get knocked on your ass and then killed if you get caught without your 3 up, OR use hunter adrenaline so you definitely never have to worry about energy.
As for his exilus, I'd highly recommend a movement mod. Firewalker, maglev, or endurance drift if you're a weirdo.
Nidus is my 2nd most played frame and building him like this has pretty much never let me down.
Also I know somebody else said something about abundant mutation not being good at higher levels, but if you use a vulpa with their sort of "health gate" ability mod on them, and use vazarin, and just.. avoid sucking.. then you pretty much never have to worry about dying as nidus EVEN WHEN hitting the level cap, and EVEN WITH abundant mutation. The diminishing returns the enemies get on their damage output really just adds up to mean that they can absolutely never touch nidus. The absolutely outrageous amount of DR paired with the constant CC and rediculously high constant health regeneration just means that nothing in the entire game can actually take you down as long as you have even the slightest bit of self preservation.
Simply put, surviving with nidus at level cap is like surviving with banshee against level 20s. It's only difficult if you suck.
Alternative Title: 21m 22s of Nidus ASMR
Nothing quite like the "eeeeaaaiaiageeeeeeaaaaggghh" every time you cast his 4 to remind me that I am alive.
It still amaze me how good the Cetus Armor looks lol
A note, nidus is a good support in some content with the secondary effect of his 3 (strength multiplier) and can achieve similar values of roar subsumed as rhino himself for example.
ok, weaponsplatform.warframe made me chuckle.
Gara and Wukong in a nutshell
He's worth two umbras, possibly the only frame I feel that way about.
I think my build is 95% 100% 190& 190%, something along those lines, full umbra. He feels great doing steel path incursions, some simple SP survivals. He's had the majority of my recent playtime actually.
Fun fact: your smeeta kavat (or other pets if you're doing it wrong..) will love you for playing nidus. Link health+armor work very well here.
Would you recommend just replacing augur secrets with hunter adrenaline? That way you have enough energy if you're on a team
Hey Brozime!
I've been inspired by your free to playthrough and made my self a new account to replay the game in the same way - I'm not as well knowledged about how to level things from the early game though, so i've struggled a bit with mastery rank grinding on it (for weapons, mostly - seems like a very slow uphill climb to level these up!)
Is there the potential that you'll make a tutorial for new players in 2021 on how to rank up their weapons/warframes effectively, or has this already been done?
Either way, always appreciate the new videos!
Thanks a lot for the build man! Just tried it after watching your video - it's the very first time I'm enjoying steel path missions cause my weapons are kinda poorly built for the mode, but Nidus clears rooms so fast
I put 3 umbral forma in my nidus prime.
My build ended up the same except that I used Steel Charge, Hunter Adrenaline, and Transient Fortitude instead of Growing Power, Adaptation, and Abundant Mutation. Plus I managed to slip an Exilus in there, too.
Still don't have any maxed arcanes though...
Why Transient Fortitude instead of blind rage? Blind Rage gives better strength and nidus doesn’t really need efficientcy
@@NinjaMaster23145 ...Huh, I actually never considered that. I might change over to it now.
I generally like the safety net of the extra efficiency since I felt powerful *enough* already. Would be more willing to try Blind Rage if I bothered getting a maxed arcane energize.
ive been waiting for a nidus prime for some time to even use the forma on. now the monster is in progress.
i replaced his 4 with Gloom. for a mobile AOE instead of static that does something similiar with different side effects. so awesome.
a decent alternative to Augur secrets is Rage OR hunters adrenoline, makes it so you dont have to use arc Energize or void child.
Personally would replace PC with transient fortitude, because duration isn’t really an issue on nidus. As a matter of fact, i’ve had more issues with positive duration than negative duration, because of his larva not being able to be recast, and enemies occasionally getting stuck on walls.
After that you can replace augur secrets with augur reach for more range on larva, since you have the strength from transient. Though, sometimes i’ve found range to not be ideal as well, because for whatever reason you can’t cast his 1 until the last cast has finished traveling, and it keeps a constant speed no matter how much range you put on him. Because of that, you can’t cast his 1 as fast with too much range.
You could also use his crit chance augment there if you wanted. That augment is STUPID good.
I'm not sure why anyone would build Abundant mutation over Teeming Virulence paired with Arcane Avenger. You'd be red critting with every weapon in the game.
Completely agree for steel path I can’t accept the 30 second undying cool down. Once you get an hour into survival you can’t guarantee everything will always go perfectly. Especially for example is teammate revives against infested and you’re caught without energy.
Should probably just play other Warframes at that point imo.
don’t need to red crit to deal massive amounts of damage
@@Brozime But why though? You still get the benefits from having ridiculous damage reduction, but you also don't have to build up 300 stacks and you're actually being useful right from the beginning of the mission with no build up. If all you wanna do is just spam 1, play Saryn instead lmao.
I need your Fashion frame. Looks better than my Halloween Nidus from last year
I love nidus so much. Spamming 1 as his only means to get stacks gets pretty boring fast but it's satisfying just being virtually unkillable.
My nidus is built to get my friends Octavia double Power strength. My Link gives 100% power strength with help from pax bolt and growing power
I remember when I first got nidus I was in fucking love.
Just a pet peeve about nidus' 4....it's crowl control is way TOO good sometimes. enemies get distracted by the maggots and if there are objects around, enemy pathing being interfered from maggots will make it hard to larva up a big group of enemies. Honestly. You don't need the big maggot explosion to do dmg, build stacks or the healing in survival. In reg missions though. It's great. Like for objs and stuff. Honestly it's the one ability that should be changed in helminth.
As a guy who had 2 default nidus' with vastly different fully forma'd builds, nidus prime has not disappointed
One trick I don't think you mentioned is that you can pop in and out of your operator to instantly count up your stacks to what they actually are, instead of having to wait for that annoyingly slow counter.
Such an easy frame to mod. He's like playing easy mode. Speaking of easy the MIGHTY SEER makes everything easy
Put preparation on nidus's exilus slot for the sake of short missions.
@Brozime Dude, we have to adress the "elemental mods interfere with Tenet weapon's innate elemental". If I have a Radiation Kuva weapon, I can still add Toxin and it will not mix with heat nor electric on it. If I have a Corrosive Tenet weapon, by adding cold it will merge with an element from Corrosive thus removing Corrosive from the equasion. Just an example.
Corrosive isn't an available inherent status so the inherent is just combining with a separate inherent status
@@Brozime Hmmm... So the corrosive on my tenet sword and shield is just a bonus toxin on innate electric? That explains it. That's how I gotnit from the store.
Good info. I neve considered arcane victory over grace. A nice budget option
Guess I'll finally get around to farming it then
Are most of these builds late game stuff? Think I'm missing most of that stuff only because i just casually jump in and out of war-frame.
Steel path so yeah late game
i took his 4 off for gloom with a more consistent heal and his link on a enemy energize and his 1 refunding energy i forget to build stacks its such a comfy build
What I’ve noticed playing with him is that when I attach my 3 to the ball of enemies that’s collected with larva it creates more stacks when you hit with your 1
Nidus basically has to play solo because when he's on a team everyone steals his snacks. Maybe if they got a health multiplier in larva like they do in well of life it would fix it.
nop you get stacks when team mates kill them in larva
I’d like to see recommend helminth ability’s in these vids. Not very familiar with nidus but sounds like his 4 would be the best to take off for something else, what else I don’t know. Roar, elemental ward, pillage just for the armor strip, idk what else would go well.
Gloom might be a decent option. Would try it if I could get sevegoth parts to actually drop
i normally replace 3 with gloom since i don't like the duration and I constantly forget out it
but my nidus is basically, group with 2, tombfinger blast the group, profit.
Unless I’m forgetting and it’s not an exhilus slot, I personally _would_ put a second umbral forma on so I can fit Primed Sure Footed into the exhilus slot.
your link makes you status immune tho
@@underatededm93 getting knocked down is a status?
@@TheEvanDude112 Yep! Knockdown, stagger etc is an actual status. So ANY abilities that give you status immunity = immunity to knockdown :)
Can nidus be good agains eidolon because no shields so magnetic wont really affect us ?
At 13:55 i noticed his stacks start to degrade. Is that because you interacted with the arsenal and it forced a reset on him or does he have a timer that causes stacks to fall off sort of like saryns 1 if it's not active?
Yea that's just the arsenal doing that
hey broz did you ever think about a helmith combo for nova?
I like subsuming gloom over his 3 and running hunter adrenaline.
Do you even get hit enough to make hunter adrenaline worth it? Seems doubtful with all the CC; damage redirection and slowed enemies....
this shit looks like my nidus runs in that i find myself more often than not running around looking for more enemies to stomp than anything :| its worse when i have a room full of enemies, hit 4, then everything dies and nothing comes back because the maggots basically take over the world 😂 i love this warframe so much.. the soloist in me cries for the prime version soon.
Whats your weapons Mods ? that you can strip enemy's armor
what blues did you use to get your infested grass to look like that?
Nidus is the only frame of mine with umbra forma, and he has 2
The only changes I'd make are Rejuvenation for Growing Power, Armoured Agility for Augur Secrets and Speed Drift. I like to have a sprint speed of 1.25 minimum.
What's happened to the Free to Play videos?
They're coming, he's just been very busy the last few weeks.
Face to the wall or object when using his one
Which color pallet is that blue from :o
what shoulder plates are those?
Brozime -- don't you think it's funny that you mention (over and over again) that Garuda's 1 locks her down to a single area and how this isn't a fun play style... yet for Nidus you do the exact same thing and yet you mention how fun he is and how you liked it... Nidus 4 and 3 basically lock him down to an area and just like when Nidus gets fully healed you can leave the area and move on so can you do that with Garuda... I find it funny how you say its a problem for one warframe and yet for another warframe its fine...
It's because if Garuda leaves her little spot she dies, if nidus does it he just gets tickled. Also his play style want him to just stand around and do things, Garuda's play style wants her to leap around with her one, but she can't because she dies in 2 hits. Nidus is fun because you can do the thing he wants you to do with no issue, Garuda can't.
@@dootdadoot2278 well your wrong but that is fine... garuda won't die if you play her right and use her powers and last time I checked most people run survival in mostly one spot... hour survival with garuda isn't a problem... second, and more importantly you can play your health spires anywhere there are enemies so you have a constant moveable health resource...
Just use teeming virulence instead of abundant mutation. I don't need to do extra damage with my 1 when I have 200%+ crit chance on my primary hitting red crits.
can you link weapon builds?
and here was i thinki i had alot of plat...
Not a fan of handspring or prime sure footed?
Only good if you are going to be using an AOE explosy launcher.
Link makes you immune to status - thus also immune to knockdown.
Wait… you can get multiple Umbral mods? Dupes, I mean
Ye buy extra from Simaris
how are you getting over 200 stacks?
He's using the Abundant Mutation augment for Nidus
"Creep" heh
Should I like? Or should I leave it at 666? I feel like I should leave it at 666. Just sayin'.
fashion pls🥺🙏🏻
Excalibur is borken
how
No finishers with radial blind don't know if it's fixed yet
whats that armor piece?
The ones on his shoulders come from Hok on Cetus.
Ostron, talk to Hok in Cetus.
@@Cross1nsan1ty thanks ^^
This has to be one of the worst Nidus builds I've ever seen. Use hunter adrenaline or rage, like this is basically a no-brainer. Why the fuck would you need arcane nullifier on him? This was kind of embarrassing to watch.
Also range is not going to affect the width of virulence.
@@shiddter it's because in later content, it hunter adrenaline doesn't matter, you hit 5 enemies with his 1 and you get energy, and since Steel path gas tons of enemies, you can't run out of energy unless you get hit with a magnetic proc, hence why he suggested arcane nullifier. The only reason nidus used hunter adrenaline before is because in normal content, he can't constantly hit tons of enemies.
@@dootdadoot2278 There are plenty of lulls in enemies on SP, idk what you're on about. Honestly if you're going that far, using 1 is pointless. Using a larva to group enemies and put them out with a weapon is what you're gonna be doing at higher levels.
Like on top of choosing arcane nullifier? Nah. Just put Hunter Adrenaline. There's really no justification to not be using it.
@@shiddter Sorry, but I don't seem to be getting enough value out of hunter adrenaline at all. Enemies either don't hit me at all (stuck spinning upside down in a noodle ball) or so much of my damage is redirected or negated that I don't take enough damage for it to be worth it (adaption, high armor, link). Seems much better to just go negative efficiency and use 1 or use an arcane energize or something. At least, that is my impression having come back to the game after a year break.
don't get those wallets they suck, WAY too tight
ez
