      ​@@kes_pocoin theory yes, but the big changes come in the context. Because the abilities are made specifically to go against you but are now directed away from you, the apparent advantages you would get for such a thing are more or less stripped. Having the specters as just specters isn't really worth it because most specters of enemy units will barely do any damage, even bombards and heavy gunners, purely because of how enemy health and armor works compared to our own. Meanwhile eximi such as the energy leech as shown in the video are borderline useless because they are specifically geared to render YOU useless, because no other entity in the game has a UI to fuck up or an energy pool to decimate.

      @@kes_poco Warframes have hundreds or thousands of health and can survive being shot by enemies. At the same time, Warframes have to deal hundreds of thousands or even millions of damage to kill high level enemies. Because of this, turning an enemy which deals maybe-lethal damage to a Warframe against other enemies with vastly more hitpoints, they become comparatively weak.

For the accuracy, beams, weapons with impact detonations, and projectile waves help a lot and cover for this problem. That gives us options like: a ton of kitgun set-ups, Tenet Cycron, Basmu, Bubonico, Shedu, and a few others I imagine. Status based set-ups, particularly heat, work pretty well like this. Hopefully that helps if you like messin' around with Wukclone/Duality/Umbra.

    I feel like it's important to note that because Specters can benefit from auras, stacking Power Donations in a coordinated squad can make the Nidus specter give significant Power Strength bonuses. This is often utilized in the meta Arbitration groups, where everyone but a Wisp takes Power Donation, the Wisp has subsumed Roar, and the Wisp pops a Nidus Specter in order to lead to extremely powerful Reservoirs and Roars so long as you cast while linked, and the link has surprisingly high uptime when you stay in place.

Plasmor is pure rad, has body PT and a wide projectile...and will kill a few things too.

Even when people try to use him, they use weapons and mods that don't work as well since the clone can't trigger buffs like the galvanized mods or get combo.

Imho, can't wait to see your breakdown on the new shield gating, and the mod that makes the whole thing a waste of time. XD

    Cosmically are generally not worth the effort but the other warframe spectres are easily replaced so eventually ended up with a protea (unlimited resources), wisp (any boost is a nice boost),vauban in those slots. A few frames refuse to case a load of their abilities but these always being something to the table. Core issue it that with the ammo changes finding a good weapon can be a PITA, battery weapons they bug out and s lot if kitguns have abominably low ammo reserves once an NPC starts firing at max rate continuously.

    While the specters do use primary ammo, they seemingly have infinite secondary ammo, i've been using a nidus bramma/akarius specter for the last couple of years and i've never seen him run out of ammo for both (albeit i only use him in long defence/interception so he's constantly having enemies die and potentially drop ammo around him)
    On an additional note, the maggots from nidus' specter provide great distractions/cc at any level

    Something not mentioned here I think is worth noting is that warframe specters while active contribute to the time played on said warframe on your profile, currently one of my most played warframes is nidus due to how much ive used his specter despite almost never actually playing him. So if you want to for some reason heavily boost the time played on a warframe, activate a specter of said frame and also play as them.

    My favorite specter to use is Trinity. I'm 100% convinced that dang thing is literally IMMORTAL.
    Back when Kuva Survivals were still rather new, I went in there with a full squad; and spawned a 2 star Trinity specter almost immediately after loading in for the additional firepower, her kit, and to get some additional Corrosive procs from the Scourge I had equipped on her.
    And she NEVER died. Even when the Grineer got to a point that all 4 of us were getting one-tapped, Trinity was standing tall and at full health. And she was SERIOUSLY trolling us too.
    There were multiple times where no one in the squad caught sight of her in a while, leading us to be convinced she finally got killed; only for her to come running around the corner STILL alive and STILL at full health.

You can then watch how the enemy Specter will perform and use their weapon and abilities.

    Honestly the syndicate specters aren't bad the Lancer blast can proc cascadia flare (and all specters/companions benefit from flares damage boost) and will usually peel off to distract enemies in survival. Shield ospreys are perfect for keeping defense objectives constantly shielded and Rollers draw far more attention than you might think with thier jump attack hitting/aggroing multiple targets (plus any specter that gives energy is a win in my book). Though my favorite is clearly khal my a mile, his constant uptime paired with the possibility of a osprey deploying corpus spawning in with him makes him extremely versatile. Oh and since the Lancer is grineer and has no shields the osprey will tend to stick with him and randomly fire bursts of inaccurate lasers to attract more enemies, turning the Lancer into a mobile support platform. Given how often non-sentinel pets tend to wander off and die in the back end of the map, I've found most times my pet will run into the tag team fighting a small army in another room and have a much better chance at survival with continuous shield support
