as a gauss main, no, not really. gauss has the 2nd highest base sprint speed already, second only to gauss prime, and he comes with 2 built-in polarities for the best sprint speed mods. redline affects stats dynamically based on your battery meter, so if it affected sprint speed then your sprint speed would be changing with the battery and it would mess with your muscle memory for movement. if his already insane sprint speed isn't enough, you can just tap or hold his 1.
Hey! As you probably clearly can tell... this is a part 1! I realized I really just wouldn't have enough time to get this out by the end of the day so I decided to cut the Expedite Sunder Nuke from the video. Thank you for your patience, I apologize for the delays, life has just been a lot lately. - kyaii
Can you please tell us in the next video why didn't you use tenet Livia with magnetic status although it has more heavy attack damge? I want to copy your build but with smeet kavat so I ask is there's any anti- synergies or the magnetic status isn't consistant or it will effect on slash status........etc
Ran this in my 5 netracells tonight. Did about 60% of the damage in my main group of 4 (which I usually do about that) and it was very fun to play. For sure going to share this one
Kyaii, thank you for posting your amazing guides despite having to balance time with all your other stuff! Hope you get to make time for everything you wanna do and achieve.
Just tested this build and this build is no joke Ive been getting exclamation points at the end of my dmg numbers back to back- 3yrs and this is the first time ive reached that far up lmao. Thanks for this hella solid build!
I came up with a good idea for a dagath build: 1. Use whatever mods you feel are good for your style 2. Replace her 4th with lycaths hunt for better energy regen, use equilibrium for this 3. Use 2 emerald shards for armor striping, the rest of the slots can be used for any other shard Lastly use good weapons, kuva Nukor, tenet cycron, or Torid is great for hitting and striping there armor quite fast
Sorry for the very long reply, but I've asked Kyaii about his Dagath a few times, and ended up making my own, because he doesn't want to do a video. Subsume Nourish over her 1. Aura: • Brief Respite Exilus: • Power Drift Mods: • Blind Rage • Transient Fortitude • Augur Secrets • Equilibrium • Archon Stretch • Primed Continuity • Primed Flow • Catalyzing Shields Arcanes: • Molt Augmented • Arcane Guardian (I'm using Guardian, because I personally have a hard time keeping her alive, even with all these shield-gating tactics) Companion: • Diriga: - Arc Coil - Manifold Bod - Momentous Bond - Animal Instinct - Vacuum - Guardian - Synth Fiber - Synth Deconstruct • Weapon: Sweeper - Toxic Barrage - Frigid Blast - Shell Shock - Atomic Fallout Notes, so far: • Archon Stretch will be triggered by Diriga's Arc Coil proccing Electricity. • You want to build up Molt Augmented, so her 3 will be stronger. Primary: • Torid: - Galvanized Chamber - Galvanized Aptitude - Amalgam Serration - Hunter Munitions - Firestorm (or Primed) - Critical Delay - Vital Sense - Thermite Rounds (I'm going with Gas/Slash build, because I already get Viral with Nourish) Her Secondary and Melee don't really matter. Secondary should be equipped with Augur Seeker, and Augur Pact for more Shield regen on casts. You could run a Melee Influence Xoris build, or a Slash/Crit with Melee Exposure build for Venka Prime. My Venka build: Stance: • Vermillion Storm Mods: • Sacrificial Steel • Primed Reach • Condition Overload • Berserker Fury • Weeping Wounds • Blood Rush • Organ Shatter • Relentless Combination I build up combo pretty quickly, and tear through everything, especially with Nourish active. My Melee Influence Xoris Build: Stance: • Astral Twilight Mods: • Sacrificial Steel • Primed Pressure Point (normal is fine) • Amalgam Organ Shatter • Killing Blow • Reflex Coil • Volatile Quick Return • Voltaic Strike • Virulent Scourge And of course, Melee Influence. When you heavy attack a thrown Xoris, it'll give guaranteed Electric damage/procs, allowing the 20% chance to spread the Corrosive to all enemies within 20m. If thrown in a crowd, it'll do the 20% chance to spread for all enemies hit, so higher chance of Melee Influence triggering. Also, Amber Shards for Casting Speed, is such a QOL choice.. spam those horses to your heart's content.
if you go on overframe and use the new build tool and click on apply conditional it gives you the calculation for critical chance without the need to calculate it
If your using Thermal Sunder to group you may aswell just kill instead. Magus anomaly requires going into Operator and Nautilus means we can't get Diriga for 1000% condition overload
@@kyaii I don't understand your point about TS grouping. You don't have to build it any differently for it to work for grouping, it would just save you the slot for the mach rush augment. It doesn't prevent you from killing. Yeah I understand how magus anomly works, that's why i recommend it as an option. it has higher range than anything you showed in the video and doesn't require you to build your weapon and companion around it. Also you can still use nautilus as a primer. It may not be as good at priming as diriga, but it provides more value since it can also be used for grouping, and there are diminishing returns on how many status effects you inflict.
@@Always.Smarter When it comes to thermal sunder grouping he’s saying that you might as just kill the enemies since TS is so strong (since if the enemies are in range for the TS group, they’re range to just die by it) and he already did showcase a replacement for using Mach Crash in the video. He probably mentioned magnus anomaly having to go into operator mode meaning that it slows or interferes with his gameplay loop as Gauss (yeah it doesn’t take up that much time and is easy to do, but he can’t play what he’s not comfortable with). And lastly that’s the reason he uses Diriga over Nautilus because Diriga is the better primer and with Duplex Bond is a great grouper as well.
I'm not sure if there are any "perfect" warframes, but Gauss is one of the few that is at least in the discussion. Kullervo, Xaku, Voruna, and Hydroid would also seem to be candidates. They are all immensely strong, have only good abilities, and are very versatile.
That was by far the best Gauss prime videos I’ve ever seen!! He’s been my main since his release and I absolutely love using him. I’m always trying to optimize his build from everything I read whether it’s Reddit, google, wiki, games radar, etc. But this video just perfect, especially since I already use NIKANA prime as my main melee but had no idea about this method you use! I joined your Twitch immediately and tried to join your Discord as well but it keeps saying the invite link is either invalid or expired? Please lmk how I can join your Discord as well! 5⭐️ video hands down! Ty for sharing it.
Something about Gauss just doesn't click with me, he feels like a walking contradiction. You are fast, but if u want to generate energy u have to stand still so enemies can actually hit you. Unless u are playing solo, gl with getting enemies to hit u before someone kills them. You are fast, yet u gotta wait like 20 seconds for Redline to kick in, and u have to wait for it every time u cast it. He almost fully scales with duration, which doesn't leave that many options for helminth, unless u want to mod ur whole build around the helminth ability, at that point might as well play the frame that has that helminth ability... Idk, he just doesn't feel like a frame that would help me with anything, there isn't a single mission type where i feel like Gauss is the frame to pick, and i feel like making a loadout for every type of content is important part of the game, it's what makes the grind enjoyable, having just the right frame for every task the game throws at you, i don't think there's a single task i'd prefer to do with Gauss... There are frames that kill bosses faster, there are frames that kill hordes of enemies faster, there are frames that tank better, there are frames that defend better, frames that nuke better, even frames that can navigate through tilesets faster and more precisely. Idk, if he generated Energy by moving and had a way to maintain 100% Redline, he'd be a sick frame, like this his Redline feels like an old man's boner, and the way his 2 generates energy contradicts with the rest of his kit...
You’re probably not playing steel path or something cuz I generate energy like crazy when the enemies shoot me, you don’t have to wait for redline? Idk what you mean by that you always have to move with him. And yea there r other frames that can do that but gauss by himself can do all of that at once jack of all trades
Ah damn it man, I literally refuse to helminth gauss. Yeah, his first is kind of useless, but it's also the most fun ability to use in game. Still trying to find a now helminth gauss build, the search continues!
there are literally frames/builds that are borderline unviable in SP and the sole reason for that is that they have dated and bad casting animations there is a reason people use fused reservoirs on wisp even though at face value it doesnt offer anything except convinience so yeah, casting speed is definitely a key aspect of wf, as speed is generally important in this game, but not just speed in literal sense but almost any sense, the less downtime you have the more fluid and practical your build is in the actually challenging content atleast, in your base starchart you can run 10 seconds reload weapons with mirage/nekros like 4th ability casting speeds, and with banshee-like squishiness and youll still be fine. but in any remotely challenging content, casting speed is definitely a huge factor
one gauss weakness I keep coming upon is how hard it is to build defense stripping. Armor stripping is great if you fighting Grin but everything else its only going to help so much. There are helmint methods of defense stripping but they all scale of ability strength, which outside of a very small collection of builds, is the least stat you want to build for.
Its like armor stripping but takes shield along with armor. Its superior to armor stripping but usually affects less of the stat in question and is harder to increase with power strength. Pillage is a example.@@PAGRlO
I went through a Gauss phase when he came out I enjoyed him for a while. I think hes cool. BUT. His DR doesint scale well because he isint at 100% all the time so automatically that makes him a mid levelcap frame. His gameplay loop while fun at first, can get old after a while. His 2 and 4 are passive abilites, his 1 is a obnoxious movement ability that you feel pressured into constantly casing, his 3 is a obnoxiously spammy nuking ability with ok range that feels kinda out of place on a speedster weapons specialist frame. There are tankyer frames, there are beter nukers, there are better weapon buffers, there are better melee frames, there are more versitile frames, there are more fun frames, there are faster frames. I wouldint change him personally but at the same time I wouldint call him perfect, if that makes sense. Also, wrathfull advance isint that good, atleast compared to roar. Roar double dips on slash procs and TRIPLE dips on melee influence (which is what you should be using in 2024), worst case scenario if you arent using influence and you are using a primed faction mod roar is just barelly worse (probably not, im just being generous) other wise its better or i your using influence (you should be using influence cause its just too good) its actually a no brainer. I guess if you are using a low crit weapon then wrathfull advance pretty good.
what did you end up replacing natural talent with? ik it doesnt matter but i cant think of something for the life of me so was just going to run like adaptation or rolling guard
since this is full on melee should we be running Dexterity arcanes on our weapons? Then also on those missions that dont have hardly aoe wouldn't it better to run melee dupl on the melee wepaons for more damge?
Also maining him since release but still don't have Thermal Sunder because i use ALL 3 OF THEM! 1 for Speed, 1 for Normal missions and now Prime is out! And i need 2 of them! Why? Because my 1'st prime is for speed. . . WHY? BECAUSE HE IS FASTER AT 0.1 THAN REGULAR ONE! I NEED THAT 0.1!!! NOW I CAN BE EVEN FASTER!
Hi, is Gauss good for every steel path mission? i know every kind of diffrent mission got it´s own ``Best frame`` but i rly want to make a frame that i can main, and that i can do all steel path mission with bcs i just unlocked steel path.
@@kyaiidoes this build full strip? Or should i put like 2 green archon shards for full strip. For like level cap. Sorry returning player if this is dumb question lol
Gauss is eh, most warframes have jobs and niches they stick too. Gauss is fun but the burnout is real once you get tired of being a weapon platform and pressing 1 to keep your Battery Up. General Warframe gameplay loop he is a solid A tier, you use him to feel OP not to play the game for its relevant content. The perfect frames are the frames that do their jobs exceptionally well. Xaku/Saryn, Nekros/Khora, Kullervo/Equinox, Frost, Wukong/Nova, Citrine/Protea. Ranging from DPS, farming, Nuke potential, Defense, Speed running, Support. Guass is in the same place Voruna is amazing for weapon platforming but him being the perfect frame is eh, a stretch imo. Citrine might be the perfect frame, infinite energy regen, Damage Reduction and Healing + Crit Status buffs making her a support Weapons platform. Guass is kit is the best designed but his functionality goes out the relevant/efficient category quick asf. Volt is better at moving then him, maybe with prime base sprint speed not as much. But volt feels like button mashy as Gauss does. But i guess personal opinion. I do feel like part of the charm is that Gauss is just cool.
@@fameparadise5083Different opinions can have different levels of validity and strength. Just saying two arguments are both "just opinions" is dumb and reductionary.
L take Gauss sunder nuking is if not the fastest one of the fastest way to clear any mission that requires moving and killing. Its a non-line of sight, armor strip, mobile nuke with exponential scaling. You can easily get upwards of 200KPM with a good build all while being mobile
When I use Wrathful on my gauss (I replaced Thermal Sunder) it resets my Nikana’s combo. This has to be a bug. I don’t recall it resetting when I used Kullervo. Warframe devs please please fix this ASAP
@kyaii I point at an enemy, tap the Wrathful Advance ability, and it resets my combo to 0 when the enemy is hit by it every time. What do you mean tp at ground? If you aim wrathful at the ground it won’t do anything. I copied the same setup you have in the video. Did I do something wrong or is it bugged? What’s going on here?
Dude my Helminth is also bugged?? It won’t let me feed him any more resources and I’m currently stuck at rank 3 and need to get to r4 for the 10 open subsume slots ?? Thought I was the only one this is happening to?
@@justinfrench8358 nah it's so weird because I haven't seen anybody else with this problem lol Mine actually works now, the last time I went to feed and gav it resources it prompted me to confirm it with the right trigger on the bottom right of the screen. Which it never did before. Maybe check for that? There might be prerequisites that aren't stated I really am not sure
@@noahedenborg4221 well in the build guide he replaces 3 with wrathful advance which is what i was going to do as well. but he also uses corrosive projection. so im not sure what i need for full armor strip.
I just can't get into his playstyle. He seems like the perfect frame for me, I find movement speed and DR to be some of the best feeling warframe kits... Except I just CAN'T like gauss. I've tried, I even forced myself to put forma into him and to really narrow down on the aspects I like.... but I just can't I don't like constantly having to move at mach 2, I'd rather use volt for mach 10 when I wanna move fast, I don't like how his thermal sunder is a mostly stationary ability that is counter intuitive to his entire kit. "SO we have a movement based frame right? and the rest of the kit is based on constantly being in motion right? lets give him a completely stationary ability that does absolutely nothing WHILE HE'S MOVING THROUGH A MAP." it's completely contrary. Volts shield can be picked up for exterminate style missions, they need to add an augment for thermal sunder that reduces effectiveness but you can pick it up and it acts like the duviri Decrees. That would make Melee even better on him, but it would also help with aiming and moving with the aoe slow following him. I just can't like him. People keep talking him up but... god damn does it frustrate me to play that way. Power meter based on distance moved? that's even worse for when you are using ANY weapon that you actually need to aim with. It brings back the AOE meta. I actually enjoy garuda more than Gauss, and I only built her because I randomly got the prime parts.
Garuda comparison is funny, as she even has a meter that goes to 100% to make you better at killing things, but unlike Gauss you raise the meter by... killing things. Older less complex frames for older less complex people like myself, I guess.
TS is not counter to his kit. using cold will build his battery, and it has enough damage/duration that you can cast it while moving and just keep moving if you need to. casting heat then cold will pull in enemies for easier melee, which also builds battery for each melee hit. if you are having trouble building battery, then just spam his cold 3, or his 1, or hit enemies with melee.

Redline not increasing the sprint speed is honestly a sin.
True
This guy gets it, should be an augment fr
@@FrakisThings Gauss reaching The edge of Solar system then back all under 60sec.
as a gauss main, no, not really. gauss has the 2nd highest base sprint speed already, second only to gauss prime, and he comes with 2 built-in polarities for the best sprint speed mods. redline affects stats dynamically based on your battery meter, so if it affected sprint speed then your sprint speed would be changing with the battery and it would mess with your muscle memory for movement. if his already insane sprint speed isn't enough, you can just tap or hold his 1.
ABSOLUTELY AGREE!
Hey! As you probably clearly can tell... this is a part 1!

Gauss is so fun to play. I was missing out waiting for his prime to build him up.
Incredible! Thank you for the content!
Gauss is very versatile and cool WF.. thanks for the video
Thanks bro
perfect warframe youtuber
Just tested this build and this build is no joke
Ive been getting exclamation points at the end of my dmg numbers back to back- 3yrs and this is the first time ive reached that far up lmao. Thanks for this hella solid build!

Subsume Nourish over her 1.
Aura:
• Brief Respite
Exilus:
• Power Drift
Mods:
• Blind Rage
• Transient Fortitude
• Augur Secrets
• Equilibrium
• Archon Stretch
• Primed Continuity
• Primed Flow
• Catalyzing Shields
Arcanes:
• Molt Augmented
• Arcane Guardian
(I'm using Guardian, because I personally have a hard time keeping her alive, even with all these shield-gating tactics)
Companion:
• Diriga:
- Arc Coil
- Manifold Bod
- Momentous Bond
- Animal Instinct
- Vacuum
- Guardian
- Synth Fiber
- Synth Deconstruct
• Weapon: Sweeper
- Toxic Barrage
- Frigid Blast
- Shell Shock
- Atomic Fallout
Notes, so far:
• Archon Stretch will be triggered by Diriga's Arc Coil proccing Electricity.
• You want to build up Molt Augmented, so her 3 will be stronger.
Primary:
• Torid:
- Galvanized Chamber
- Galvanized Aptitude
- Amalgam Serration
- Hunter Munitions
- Firestorm (or Primed)
- Critical Delay
- Vital Sense
- Thermite Rounds
(I'm going with Gas/Slash build, because I already get Viral with Nourish)
Her Secondary and Melee don't really matter.
Secondary should be equipped with Augur Seeker, and Augur Pact for more Shield regen on casts.
You could run a Melee Influence Xoris build, or a Slash/Crit with Melee Exposure build for Venka Prime.
My Venka build:
Stance:
• Vermillion Storm
Mods:
• Sacrificial Steel
• Primed Reach
• Condition Overload
• Berserker Fury
• Weeping Wounds
• Blood Rush
• Organ Shatter
• Relentless Combination
I build up combo pretty quickly, and tear through everything, especially with Nourish active.
My Melee Influence Xoris Build:
Stance:
• Astral Twilight
Mods:
• Sacrificial Steel
• Primed Pressure Point (normal is fine)
• Amalgam Organ Shatter
• Killing Blow
• Reflex Coil
• Volatile Quick Return
• Voltaic Strike
• Virulent Scourge
And of course, Melee Influence.
When you heavy attack a thrown Xoris, it'll give guaranteed Electric damage/procs, allowing the 20% chance to spread the Corrosive to all enemies within 20m. If thrown in a crowd, it'll do the 20% chance to spread for all enemies hit, so higher chance of Melee Influence triggering.

Roar double dips on slash procs and TRIPLE dips on melee influence (which is what you should be using in 2024), worst case scenario if you arent using influence and you are using a primed faction mod roar is just barelly worse (probably not, im just being generous) other wise its better or i your using influence (you should be using influence cause its just too good) its actually a no brainer. I guess if you are using a low crit weapon then wrathfull advance pretty good.
ayo spoilers bro. let the part 2 roll. no need to ruin it for the rest of us. ;)
Ayyyyyy I've been doin that
goated
Wait, how you got excilus slot in your nikana?
Me like funny running man. Running man go fast weeee
Gauss Gaming
what did you end up replacing natural talent with? ik it doesnt matter but i cant think of something for the life of me so was just going to run like adaptation or rolling guard
My gauss with my incarnon hate slaps. With my riven infinite red crit
“discord linked down below in pinned comment”
>no pinned comment
😟
since this is full on melee should we be running Dexterity arcanes on our weapons? Then also on those missions that dont have hardly aoe wouldn't it better to run melee dupl on the melee wepaons for more damge?
well melee dup doesn't work with wrathful and if you're constantly using the melee you don't need dex aecanes
will a prisma skan incarnon be better or bleed procs are better with a nikana?
Ive outran 3 gausses as hydroid
Imagine Redline was Helminth skill. . .
Also maining him since release but still don't have Thermal Sunder because i use ALL 3 OF THEM! 1 for Speed, 1 for Normal missions and now Prime is out! And i need 2 of them! Why? Because my 1'st prime is for speed. . . WHY? BECAUSE HE IS FASTER AT 0.1 THAN REGULAR ONE! I NEED THAT 0.1!!! NOW I CAN BE EVEN FASTER!
Can I use larva instead of wrathful advanced for grouping and add crit mods to make up for wrathful advanced
I like complicated Warframes tbh
I love gauss except that he's a bit too spammy for me to play longer than a few missions
Hi, is Gauss good for every steel path mission? i know every kind of diffrent mission got it´s own ``Best frame`` but i rly want to make a frame that i can main, and that i can do all steel path mission with bcs i just unlocked steel path.
It will work for most everything besides bosses in which you'll need to use ranged weapons for some
what is your korumm build? or where can i find it
What’s the diriga gun build?
hey could you share your diriga build?
Yo where's the nuke build
What build did he use on the Epitaph? can someone tell pls
how did you do magnetic status please ? i didn't understand this part
from diriga
Normal gauss was already insanely busted, but his prime just makes it completely broken lol
Idk this warframe Is not for me I don't see him fun I will just sell him
Ppls are paying him for 100 or 110P 😂.
@@saimyintmyat9373 I will try to sell it for 130 140
I’m only MR 6 and I can’t to buy his Prime version
can i finish steel path with this fully
Is there a perfected non helminth build? And still maintain red crits?
No
my question is how the hell did you add an exilus and arcane slot to the nikana???
new with the whispers update
Can you do the same thing with roar and a traditioanl nikana prime build? or this will be better?
it'd be worse
@@kyaiidoes this build full strip? Or should i put like 2 green archon shards for full strip. For like level cap. Sorry returning player if this is dumb question lol
For some reason inverting the ability doesn’t switch anything it really sucks using heat Garuda having to hold cast every time
Iirc u have to invert the frame it's on
Example thermal sunder Titania
@@noahedenborg4221 there is no invert for Garuda though
it inverts it on any frame you have it on
maybe a stupid question, but why cant i put an arcane or an exilus mod on the nikana?
havent done whispers in the walls
Gauss is eh, most warframes have jobs and niches they stick too. Gauss is fun but the burnout is real once you get tired of being a weapon platform and pressing 1 to keep your Battery Up. General Warframe gameplay loop he is a solid A tier, you use him to feel OP not to play the game for its relevant content. The perfect frames are the frames that do their jobs exceptionally well. Xaku/Saryn, Nekros/Khora, Kullervo/Equinox, Frost, Wukong/Nova, Citrine/Protea. Ranging from DPS, farming, Nuke potential, Defense, Speed running, Support. Guass is in the same place Voruna is amazing for weapon platforming but him being the perfect frame is eh, a stretch imo. Citrine might be the perfect frame, infinite energy regen, Damage Reduction and Healing + Crit Status buffs making her a support Weapons platform. Guass is kit is the best designed but his functionality goes out the relevant/efficient category quick asf. Volt is better at moving then him, maybe with prime base sprint speed not as much. But volt feels like button mashy as Gauss does. But i guess personal opinion. I do feel like part of the charm is that Gauss is just cool.
Again this video is opinion based just like yours.
@@fameparadise5083Different opinions can have different levels of validity and strength. Just saying two arguments are both "just opinions" is dumb and reductionary.
@@fameparadise5083You must be a Gauss only player
Not saying much, but you can reach dmg cap with under 5 ability casts with gauss, sounds fun if not else
L take
Gauss sunder nuking is if not the fastest one of the fastest way to clear any mission that requires moving and killing. Its a non-line of sight, armor strip, mobile nuke with exponential scaling. You can easily get upwards of 200KPM with a good build all while being mobile
Which ability did you subsume for wrathful advance?
Thermal Sunder aka the 3
What’s the diriga build?
im fast as fuck boiiii
yo can you show the build you were using for the korumm?
that build is coming soon
@@kyaii nicee, the archon weapons are super cool and nobody really talks abt them
When I use Wrathful on my gauss (I replaced Thermal Sunder) it resets my Nikana’s combo. This has to be a bug. I don’t recall it resetting when I used Kullervo. Warframe devs please please fix this ASAP
are you teleporting onto enemies to proc it? that's a heavy attack and will drain combo
tp at ground
@kyaii I point at an enemy, tap the Wrathful Advance ability, and it resets my combo to 0 when the enemy is hit by it every time. What do you mean tp at ground? If you aim wrathful at the ground it won’t do anything. I copied the same setup you have in the video. Did I do something wrong or is it bugged? What’s going on here?
you need to hold cast to ONLY teleport at ground
OMG I’m an unstoppable beast, thank you for clearing that up! Good lord this is OP
Is this build still good without the kullervo ability? My helminth is bugged so I can't level it up at all to subsume
Its fine without it
Dude my Helminth is also bugged??
It won’t let me feed him any more resources and I’m currently stuck at rank 3 and need to get to r4 for the 10 open subsume slots ??
Thought I was the only one this is happening to?
@@justinfrench8358 nah it's so weird because I haven't seen anybody else with this problem lol
Mine actually works now, the last time I went to feed and gav it resources it prompted me to confirm it with the right trigger on the bottom right of the screen. Which it never did before. Maybe check for that? There might be prerequisites that aren't stated I really am not sure
@@justinfrench8358easy way is to remove any subsumed ability then feed again
No one uses adaptation anymore :(
why use that when you have 100% DR alrdy
Which ability would you subsume on gauss for wrathful advance? His 1?
3rd
@@kyaii Oh wow really? Ppl tell me his 3 is broken, just not used in this build.
If it's not used then why keep it

@@noahedenborg4221 well in the build guide he replaces 3 with wrathful advance which is what i was going to do as well. but he also uses corrosive projection. so im not sure what i need for full armor strip.
anyone got a extra gauss prime bp
I wish I saved the 120$ bucks I had right now 😢
What did u spend $120 on???
!
is there anyway you could make overframe builds for this
The perfect frame is Ivara.
She literally makes everything easy mode no matter what your loadout is.
C bête je maîtrise pas assez l'anglais pour comprendre toute ta vidéo 😑
translated subtitles
I just can't get into his playstyle. He seems like the perfect frame for me, I find movement speed and DR to be some of the best feeling warframe kits...
Except I just CAN'T like gauss. I've tried, I even forced myself to put forma into him and to really narrow down on the aspects I like.... but I just can't I don't like constantly having to move at mach 2, I'd rather use volt for mach 10 when I wanna move fast, I don't like how his thermal sunder is a mostly stationary ability that is counter intuitive to his entire kit.
"SO we have a movement based frame right? and the rest of the kit is based on constantly being in motion right? lets give him a completely stationary ability that does absolutely nothing WHILE HE'S MOVING THROUGH A MAP."
it's completely contrary. Volts shield can be picked up for exterminate style missions, they need to add an augment for thermal sunder that reduces effectiveness but you can pick it up and it acts like the duviri Decrees. That would make Melee even better on him, but it would also help with aiming and moving with the aoe slow following him.
I just can't like him. People keep talking him up but... god damn does it frustrate me to play that way. Power meter based on distance moved? that's even worse for when you are using ANY weapon that you actually need to aim with. It brings back the AOE meta. I actually enjoy garuda more than Gauss, and I only built her because I randomly got the prime parts.
Garuda comparison is funny, as she even has a meter that goes to 100% to make you better at killing things, but unlike Gauss you raise the meter by... killing things. Older less complex frames for older less complex people like myself, I guess.
TS is not counter to his kit. using cold will build his battery, and it has enough damage/duration that you can cast it while moving and just keep moving if you need to. casting heat then cold will pull in enemies for easier melee, which also builds battery for each melee hit. if you are having trouble building battery, then just spam his cold 3, or his 1, or hit enemies with melee.
I hope your life is going ok? All the delays are making me wonder if you are ok?
Gauss with syam is insane too..
Does it increase heavy atk speed?
I hate his prime helmet
That is your opinion I like it
