results in you losing a chunk of effectiveness if you get an enemy in yo face

brisk gyro
#

Well then

weary yacht
#

otherwise I did have the plan of keeping the dual toxos as my melters and getting the jupiter, but alas I ain't high enough with the hex for that yet

brisk gyro
#

If u want to keep the toxos try using bramma for hord clear, works pretty well. What warfrme so u use in the setup?

weary yacht
#

lazy tank chroma

#

gloom with heat ward

brisk gyro
#

Ah well u do get alot of dmg with chroma.... ye bramma would work great then. I did got weaker in comparison for the aoe meta but if u buff it just abit u can use it easily in the current content. Just don't try eta with it ExcaliburLUL

But from the few days I've been here the ppl that are typing alot are how it feels the same

How would one build trinity if one wanted to make use of champions blessing abating link and vampire leech and roar over her first ability

potent bramble
#

@solar reef yo, back to our talk abt ash build, i did as u said, i replaced the augument from his 1 to 2nd one, and on top of that i occasionally infused eclipse into his 1

#

the config im using

brisk gyro

#

Alr tyty

solar reef
#

you would benefit much more from Roar, Nourish, or WA

potent bramble
potent bramble
solar reef
#

Eclipse will give you less damage than Roar will on headshots unless your weapon is abusing multi co

#

this also implies you’ve done a lot of priming

potent bramble
#

actually its pure aeolak

solar reef
#

then eclipse is just a direct downgrade

potent bramble
solar reef
#

you’re misunderstanding me

potent bramble
solar reef
#

Eclipse only does silly shenanigans with Multi CO interactions. Aeolak IS a multi-co weapon but you said there was no priming

#

in which case, you would do more damage with Roar

#

I personally use nourish on him for weapons platforming

potent bramble
quiet laurel
#

never heard of that before

solar reef
quiet laurel
solar reef
#

i mean it double dips, if thats the right word

#

I don’t really know how to explain it

quiet laurel
#

double dipping would mean it applies twice

#

i. e. [eclipse]²

solar reef
#

I may just be wrong

#

it’s always just been explained to me that Eclipse scales higher with CO and Roar with faction banes

#

I understand why Roar works better for faction bonuses of course

quiet laurel
#

when it comes to the math you'd deal more raw dmg if you used eclipse with banes instead of roar with banes cause roar stacks additively with banes while eclipse multiplicatively

old marsh
quiet laurel
#

when you deal DoTs its different tho cause of the multi dipping

solar reef
#

earlier

quiet laurel
#

the thing is eclipse would be used more if xatas didnt exist

solar reef
#

Xatafluence 🤑

quiet laurel
#

xatas has much more things that affect its dmg so its better in 99% of cases

solar reef
#

we LOVE blast

quiet laurel
#

only time you'd use subsumed eclipse for its dmg purposes is also multi dipping

#

so on zaw and glaives (raw dmg builds)

#

for DoT/Influence roar is better again

#

so eclipse kinda deadge

old marsh
#

Only good thing about eclipse is energy economy and Damage reduction u can get

quiet laurel
#

energy econ?

undone dust
quiet laurel
#

with eclipse?

old marsh
quiet laurel
#

I mean thats like such a little difference tbh

#

one cast a minute thats a bit more expensive isnt even noticable

brisk gyro
compact hill
brisk gyro
#

the high investement i am currently using is this one

subsume is from nokko (gives 100% str when u have 500% already)
i use power drain on paizon + madurai

#

the end result when everything is fully stacked is an 155% fire rate buff what corresponds to 782,75% str

#

you can push this one further when using 3 umbra mods and energy conversion to ~820%

#

or go even further with dipping umbra mods for other str mods + archon strength but there u will have to use sth like hema to get the buff

#

and all that for ~900% str is imo to much work

#

(everything is without nidus specter)

compact hill
#

and i dont have any of the arcanes

brisk gyro
#

more budget i would go in direction of this, if u dont have primed ones u can use the basic ones

#

energy conversion + augur secrets are completely optional

#

for intensify take the one that gives more strength

#

arcanes are nice boosts but nor required

#

growing power is optimal but optional rn u can use whatever fits

#

since u dont have many str mods i would try using adaptation + vitality for survivability if u dont have a good equilibrium + companion with synth deconstruct

compact hill
#

btw whats a good primary to use on mr11

near vortex
mighty flare
near vortex
#

The 3x crit multi while invis works on surge sparks and the 30% strength is nice

brisk gyro
#

overall i would try using about 145% range for qol, duration for about 100% i have 128 through continuty and then as much str as u want (depends how much slots u want to sacrifice for the better buff, usualy more than like 300-350 is overkill but some like big numbers to go up)

I do as much strength as possible with roar over 4

2 is very valuable survival

near vortex

Unless you want to do a 4 with augment build subsuming off 2 but survival is harder that way

brisk gyro

her 2 casts breach surge while active and if u double tap it its a free 3 sec of invunrability

#

its a free rolling guard

for survivability

Breach Surge being a blind is also nice for survival too

Her 3 is too good for damage to replace if you’re using the 4 augment

does anybody from u have a fun build for banshee? i want to try some stuff out

why do i have the urge to try out smite rhino ExcaliburLUL

mighty flare
#

not good

brisk gyro
#

hmm

#

why tho, shouldnt it be a nice nuke with the better roar?

novel bear
#

You need a lot of strength without rad procs

#

Better roar doesn’t decrease the strength requirement that much

mighty flare
#

smite aoe needs full strip & viral / roar / ability damage, rhino only gives strong roar

grave cloak
brisk gyro
#

hmmm fair

novel bear
#

Reave rhino is better

alongside chroma/limbo/loki/atlas tbh

if you just want a strong single target nuke, itll work but it works on everyone

  • with augment its free hot shot
near vortex
grave cloak
#

smells so bad even I can smell from behind a screen

near vortex
#

I can think of a couple funny Limbo builds
Breach surge plus glaives means you triple dip the Rift Torrent boost which makes for some big damage

#

Well of Life plus Zymos lets you sit in the Rift and pump out Zymos bees to hit everything cross rift

#

Uhhh
Null Stars with the augment kind of works with Rift Torrent

#

You can do high range high strength for most missions and go low range high duration for defense missions

#

In Arbitration Defense you can just Banish the defense target into the Rift

grave cloak
#

tbh at this point I'm not even sure how limbo can get reworked without his entire identity being changed tbh

#

they removed his ability to troll teammates ig?

near vortex
#

I can name two changes:
VFX updates
Allies in affinity range gain Rift Walk

#

God, Limbo NEEDS VFX updates

novel bear
#

Rift is just a slight sepia filter right now

#

Very bad

near vortex
#

His VFX are as old as he is and it shows

And on a frame where visual clarity is paramount, it doesn't pass in a world where Zarr Mirage makes more VFX then there are enemies on the tile

near vortex
#

It's just on the buff bar where you already have a lot of buffs to look at

novel bear
#

The buff bar is bad design in general

#

Galvanized mods shouldn’t be on it, for one

near vortex
#

Limbo is so close to being great in squads
VFX changes and giving allies Rift Walk should be more than enough

Can I get some advice on making this set up better, even if I have to swap out some weapons?

Get volatile recompense augment

Mod for viral on epitaph, and use fulmination if you have it

#

Ok thx

novel bear
#

Take off buzzkill on guandao and replace it with an elemental mod

#

Replace gladiator vice with berserker fury

umbral spear
#

Which element?

novel bear
#

Ideally, electric with melee influence

#

But without influence, it doesn’t matter too much

without influence I'd just go for the forced bleeds from the stance and not go any element at all

is it better to use roar or nourish over kullervo's 4?

for a dual weapons platform build between guns and melee

for dmg, roar
for utility, nourish

roar on kullervo kinda hit or miss cause influence sometimes doesnt proc cause you one shot

wintry olive

my riven got damage,toxin,status chance and negative puncture

quiet laurel
velvet pulsar
#

Status application is a later priority to damage, normally.

#

But in case of forced procs, status application is first priority than damage

quiet laurel
#

without trying to be rude I barely understood any of that

velvet pulsar
#

Mecha Set doesn't proc on eximus marked enemies if u one-shot them

However, if the proc is forced, it has worked IIRC

#

So what I'm trying to say is that Xoris or Falcor might still work even when u one-shot

quiet laurel
#

ok now I understand

velvet pulsar

Or any other forced electric melee

but idk if that works, should be easy to test

strong quest
#

Hey folks, do Elementalist mods affect the additional damage instance from Oraxia's 4?

#

Ah, cool, then additional question, if I already have, say, 3 tauforged emerald shards boosting that damage and am using a status weapon, would it be better to just add another status mod or would it still be worth it to use elementalist over another element?

#

To be more specific, im considering this for my Ocucor and my Tenet Ferrox

quiet laurel
#

for ocucor try to get as many useful elements on it as possible

#

aka a rainbow build

#

idk what to do with tenet ferrox, never even heard someone speak of the gun before

strong quest
#

Its a good weapon, even without oraxia's 4 it deals good damage, mostly single target though despite having AoE

#

Probably the best speargun if I had to pick one

#

Which I did, which is why i have it

#

Anyway thanks for the advice on the Ocucor!

Hey, im a new player, would really like advice on my khora prime build, as im struggling to kill level 35-40+ enemies

fresh surge
#

you can drop the strength mods on her as she doesn't need it do decent damage

#

also consider swapping dmg type to viral on her whip

novel agate
#

Like condition overload? I changed the damage type. And cumulative whipclaw isnt good?

#

Are any other mods worth it? Im trying for overextended at the moment and Augur reach

fresh surge
fresh surge
#

the most important thing for dmg is accumulating whipclaw augment

#

the bonus it provides is additive to power strength that's why we don't need power strength and we can even go below 100% without harming our dmg

#

do note that her 1 needs to hit 3 enemies+ for the augment to stack

potent bramble
#

do anyone have the nepheri build that works?

novel agate
fresh surge
#

and when it comes to her weapon for lv 40-50 it would be a good idea to swap galvanized elementalist for more combo duration to make it easier to keep it up

#

or you can get get rid of [reach] if you get more ability range

novel agate
fresh surge
#

oh yea sorry mb

#

i would personally get rid of rush then

brisk gyro
#

yea thats why i was thinking having a lil duration is nice with it so set 3 and forget for like 15 sec

keen moat
brisk gyro
#

ok it depends if u want to play status of critt boar

keen moat
#

Honestly either would be fine

maiden geode
#

you can and should go for both.

brisk gyro
#

for critt one its basicaly the same just instead of an element ud rather accept critt change

#

i would try getting a critt dmg, multi shot or dmg one to have a generaly good riven

#

i myself went status since i got this thing

keen moat
#

I see, thank you. then something like this would be a no go?

brisk gyro
#

its funn having a good status chance number xD

keen moat
#

thats quite alot indeed

maiden geode
brisk gyro
#

boar has a base status chance of 120%

#

its ridiculus if u go status

#

yea ik its a small disadvantage but the other 2 stats are fine for a status build

maiden geode
#

anything is fine, playing a boar rivenless with 4 mods is fine too, heck even playing it modless is fine and can clear level cap with all the free stats, but thats not the point here, negative status chance is bad on a weapon like the boar. you'd much rather want a harmless - stat

brisk gyro
maiden geode
#

Just far better to have -dmg against infested, or something that matters even less like physical damage types you dont need, max ammo on most weapons, recoil, zoom. there is absolutely no reason to stick with neg status which is one that actually hurts its damage output.

brisk gyro
#

i completely agree with u but here i was comparing the two rivens he got. Sure its better to continue rolling to get better one but the comparison of the two rivens imo the neg status gives u more free room for building

keen moat
#

Thank you both for the help. ill keep cycling and try my luck

Have you gotten to 1999 content or Arbitrations yet?

hmmmm
The build SHOULD do just fine for where you are at

#

If you want easy upgrades, Galvanized Chamber and Galvinized Aptitude should be large boosts to damage

#

Those come from Arbitrations

#

You should have Arbi unlocked if you're at New War, so if you want an upgrade you can farm some of those

#

You don't have Steel Path for the Incarnon adapter and you aren't at 1999 for an Acuity setup

Breach surge hits heads

shell tundra
#

Suffering, agony

novel bear
#

And gets the crit bonus from worthy comradery

#

Also, on a caster build, use arcane arachne, and replace energize with universal fallout if you have it or alternatively use arcane crepuscular

shell tundra
#

Why would I use Arachne? Does Breach Surge tag enough radiation procs to make Universal Fallout either a side grade or an upgrade to Energize? Does Wisp’s 2 proc invisibility enough to make Crepuscular worth it? Sorry for the barrage of questions

novel bear
#

Arachne affects both cataclysmic gate and breach surge, so it double dips, and is a major damage increase if you don’t have a similar bonus from another source
Cataclysmic gate procs a lot of radiation, and is definitively better than energize
Crepuscular vs fallout is mainly a question of if you have problems with energy or not
With blind rage, you probably want fallout

coral crest
#

ahh, that coveted club of universal weapon bonus damage abilities

#

(Temple is a part of it but is still crying in the corner)

shell tundra
coral crest
#

everyone can use pyrotechnics better than Temple now

novel bear
shell tundra
#

So Arachne for buffing 4 and 3, is Crepuscular an option?

novel bear
#

Yes

shell tundra
#

And Universal Fallout I’ve already wrapped my brain around, not entirely sold but that’s because I’m dogwater at casting 4 often enough to warrant farming radiation off of it

novel bear
#

Are you using wisp as a caster or a weapon platform? Or are you trying to do both simultaneously?

toxic cypress
#

how could i improve this?

mighty flare
proper stone
#

does oraxia extra instance count as ability damage?

coral crest
proper stone
#

ok
i just though that since it is a different damage instance it wouldnt count as a buff
for example dagath 2 seems the same

coral crest
#

You can increase the percentage with strength, but they won't interact with anything ability dmg related

proper stone
#

any special interaction with damage instance?
or is it just worse roar?

coral crest
#

Dagath is different, so much so it will actually steal kills from your weapon and prevent stacking of arcanes and galv mods

coral crest
#

Her effect adds a projectile over an enemy that stores damage dealt to said enemy

#

After some time (or if there's enough dmg to kill an enemy), the projectile drops

#

So it's pure ability dmg, not coded like a separate instance

proper stone
#

ok got it
but i mostly care abt oraxia 4th rn

coral crest
proper stone
#

yea but it only applies toxin status right?

coral crest
#

I should rephrase that

#

It's affected by weapon mods separately

#

Instead of being a straight buff to the weapon damage

proper stone
#

so...i triple dip with faction mods?
or did i not understand right?

coral crest
#

Double dip

proper stone
#

i mean the status

#

toxin status from the instance

#

mb

coral crest
#

I think?

proper stone
#

so i need to get toxin damage on my weapon mods?

coral crest
#

You get multiplier for final weapon damage, then second instance based on the total weapon damage also gets a faction bonus

proper stone
#

i hate faction mods tho :(

coral crest
#

I mean using it as an example

#

I hate faction mods as well

proper stone
#

so roar double dips too?
on the instance damage

coral crest
#

You can't place roar and silken stride together

proper stone
#

oh yeah

#

xata?

coral crest
#

No

#

1 sec

proper stone
#

oh

coral crest
#

Only Saryn can have that combo

#

Since for some reason Toxin Lash doesn't conflict with roar/xata's

proper stone
#

back to the other question
does the instance get affected by every elemental mod?
or just toxin mods?

coral crest
#

Wiki goes very extensively on it

proper stone
#

why does the new instance deal the same damage?
i have an ax-52 without mods
dealing 6 damage and the toxin instance deals the same
when i crit tho, it deals 1 damage more than the weapon from 14 to 15 on the instance

tawny nova
#

For a solid melee weapon based on Crit, which would be better for general use? Tenet Exec or Fragor Prime?

lunar blade
#

Still you have the extra element choice on exec, you could go viral influence with primed fever strike

mighty flare
#

do not influence with pfs

lunar blade
strong arch
#

I found a way to combine and use melee influence on a pure heat build in a way that my companion can use it to multiply it's damage with the already multiplied damage in one hit that spreads to do billions.

lunar blade
mighty flare
strong arch
#

Heat influence is neat

storm sable
#

Would kompressa be nice with oraxia gun platform build?

lunar blade
# mighty flare you said this, you dont go pfs for viral influence just in general

I hadn’t connected PFS to Fever Strike but to the shockwave "projectiles" fired by the exec sorry. 🤣
It depends on what you use, Weeping Wounds with Naramon + 60% status chance from Vicious Frost. Other than that, it only has Slash and Impact, both surpassed by the extra 60% Electric element. It procs Influence easily, and you don’t give up the damage from Primed Fever Strike, which you can feel when you hit an Acolyte with a 12x Tennokai heavy attack. I agree that it doesn’t work on all melee weapons though

strong arch
#

With my companion it does the funny dmg cap spreading after 2 hits.

lunar blade
# strong arch

I also have the Hate as a Heat Influence, different build. If you like that combo, there are also the Tonkkatt, which get Heat that can’t be combined with the mods '0'

any claw mod suggestions for panzer vulpa?

tawny nova

wind kettle
#

my gyre build, i thinks its ok. subsumed tharros strike instead of the commonly chosen pillage for bc personal preference

#

use power drain for some extra ability str if you want to min max a bit

#

gyre works well with armour strip, if you like helios, helios can do that with surprising effectiveness

grave cloak
#

First time I heard that pillage is the common subsume on gyre tbh

coral crest
#

Because she has no survivability tools

#

Outside of cc

grave cloak
#

I mean if you want survivability tools omamori is the more reliable subsume over pillage, no?

coral crest
grave cloak
#

also trusting overframe😔

wind kettle
#

I chosen to subsume off her first instead of her 2nd just because the second is really power CC and group enemies which is also good in general for her abilities and tharos strike. and helios gets a bit of benefit too

#

no, not tanking at all

coral crest
#

I mean you have adaptation and armor

wind kettle
#

thats just mild dr in higher levels.

coral crest
coral crest
wind kettle

better than nothing unfortunately

coral crest

I mean if she gets hit through the shield she may as well die

grave cloak
coral crest
#

Armor doesn't affect shields

mighty flare
#

mismanaged resources, if ur tryna ehp for like eta you can do better

#

if you mean above that, then theres no point

wind kettle
#

I find most of the time with my build deaths are due to tox procs from eximus or slash procs.

#

unfortunately armour wont stop those

coral crest
#

You know what could do the job instead of adaptation for this

wind kettle
#

but eh. ill take dr for a rainy day

coral crest
#

Rolling guard

#

Or... pillage?

wind kettle
#

;p not a fan of rollin guard, personal preference

coral crest
#

I mean this armor shard just does nothing

#

It's like barely any dr

wind kettle

use blessings or something

I mean as long as it works for you

gyre is now (somewhat) tanky

grave cloak

Does essentially the same thing

mighty flare
#

or just use fortifier

grave cloak

or just use vazarin

coral crest
#

Are you using vicious bond?

#

Or what was the one for crit

wind kettle
#

sacrifical mods?

grave cloak
versed harbor
#

the mod sacrifice not sacrificial steel

wind kettle
#

oh pff lol

mighty flare
#

helios is useless nowadays
ur using armor strip subsume which make helios x2 useless

versed harbor
#

hes good with some abilities tbh like qorvex

coral crest
mighty flare
#

not really

#

rather run nautilus to actually give good grouping

versed harbor
#

full strips rly quick and lazy

#

so you can strip with helios and group with a subsume

coral crest
#

I hope you know that

mighty flare
#

if you're grouping with subsume then you have easy setup to actually strip with 2
making helios useless again

wind kettle
#

:p helios is pretty active regardless, even if i have a group + strip combo doesnt mean helios isnt doing anything

grave cloak
#

Just use oxylus

wind kettle
#

plus i got to fill out that codex :p

mighty flare
#

having another form of armor strip makes helios useless

mighty flare
#

?

versed harbor
#

1 and 3 are good

mighty flare
#

??

coral crest
#

My subsime slot is 54

#

Don't ask what my other 53 abilities are

mighty flare
#

3 becomes useless with fused crucible augment and any form of overguard

versed harbor
#

if ur solo ig

#

I just prefer any other group/strip alternative to 2 cuz it saves a mod slot and its faster

mighty flare
#

if ur going at support angle then you have better options

versed harbor
#

and 2 range is rly annoying

grave cloak
coral crest
grave cloak
#

Pensive

mighty flare
#

qorvex 2 is also dmg vulnerability which isnt something you get easily

coral crest
#

Yeah damage vuln and grouping

#

That's universally useful even if a bit janky to use

#

And armor strip if with an augment

versed harbor
#

id rather just have a larger range proper grouping tool like coil horizon, larva etc cuz the enemys being closer together will give more dmg anyway cuz of how his 4 works

coral crest
#

But his 2 does that too

#

And applied vulnerability regardless of OG

mighty flare
#

larva makes 2 extremely consistent, if ur using 4 aug then 3 becomes useless

astral tinsel
#

it's really funny when you get the void fissure range bonus

mighty flare
coral crest
#

Fair enough

mighty flare
#

needs help to effectively group

coral crest
#

If only it got wider instead of longer

versed harbor
#

I just still like 3 tbh but I dont perma beam rly

mighty flare
#

so using a grouping subsume / nautilus / magus anomaly immediately makes his 2 somewhat okay again

#

i refuse to call anything from qorvex better than okay

versed harbor
#

the idea of using grouping ability -> wall -> priming -> beam is just alot

mighty flare
#

priming is done automatically

#

unless ur still in stone age with no companions

versed harbor
#

I mean ye but also companions are kinda slow

mighty flare
#

use better companions

versed harbor
#

the only one that would prime quick enough would be like hounds or maybe diriga

#

but then you lose nautilus/helios

coral crest
mighty flare
#

nautilus is amazing primer with assault mode on one of those

coral crest
#

Weapons do most of the work when priming with sentinels

versed harbor
#

helstrum is slow without rly rly tight groups and tazicor chains like what 4 enemies?

coral crest
#

It's only hounds and diriga that spam status with abilities

mighty flare
#

larva/cordon

coral crest
#

Uhhh

mighty flare
#

you mentioned alr using larva which solves helstrum projectile speed issues
cordon solves that issue itself with cordon

versed harbor
#

cordon isnt tight and like ye larva works

#

but bubonico or w/e still faster

versed harbor
#

more reliable when companion decides to shoot the eximus thats not getting cc'd or decides not to shoot atall

mighty flare
#

sounds like you have temu companions

coral crest
versed harbor
#

ye

mighty flare
#

yes

coral crest
#

Oh nice

mighty flare
versed harbor
#

it takes a fraction of a second to fire a bubonico or ogris or w/e primer u want

mighty flare
#

it takes less with companions primers, what you are describing has never happened to me
or the very least, never happened consistenty enough to say that companions are slow/inconsistent primers

#

theres also reload speeds on sentinel weapons

versed harbor
#

just a preference thing

#

it might be cuz the distance cuz ill group fairly far away from me

mighty flare
#

i mean, there are several reasons against qorvex 3 while 2 gets better

versed harbor
#

and there are several reasons against 2 too

#

its just preference, qorvex is cool cuz he needs lots of stuff and you gotta solve it

wind kettle
#

@drifting oracle unfortunately havent filled out archonshards

drifting oracle
#

Maybe I should try use him for something that isn't an Eido carrier lmao

real sluice
#

What mods should I have for nuke builds? I’m using things like blind rage, transient fortitude, and umbral intensity for maximum strength and I’m only cracking 4-5k. Something isn’t adding up

real sluice
#

Most of mine lol

#

Chroma, equinox, the whole lot

#

I see people exist with these characters and everything goes bye bye

#

I use all the buttons in the world and an enemy at lvl 110 doesn’t dies

#

(also theyre all primes at max rank)

#

Like I’m at 250+ ability str

#

And things ain’t even close to dying at 110, let alone high rank steel path

wind kettle
#

thats a bit of a loaded question unfortunately

wind kettle
#

strength alone is not the soul determing factor for a nuke build

#

and varries between frames and how the frame operates

real sluice
#

I’ve tried nuke build I’ve seen that are frame specific and it still don’t work lol

#

Idk if it’s cause I’m 1pip from max on umbral intensify or something 🤷🏻

coral crest
#

Different frames do it differently, you know

real sluice
#

I know, I’m just wondering why it’s working for others and not me

coral crest
#

You need to provide specifics

wind kettle
#

chroma is a bit of an odd ball for being a nuke frame, maybe he has changed but not a frame i would consider large aoe enemy damage dealing

coral crest
#

Yeah nuke is not exactly the right word

#

He buffs weapon damage into heaven

#

But his best ability damage is...

#

2000 I think

wind kettle
#

Valkyr ill use for example, melee frame, not a big aoe frame either but high damage and very fast with some cc. i got full crit and with melee range and use tennokai to nuke enemies around me

coral crest
#

You can't just press all buttons and kill everything

#

Especially on Equinox, for an example

astral tinsel
coral crest
#

Don't fall into "nuke this nuke that" mentality

#

Actually learn what the frame does

astral tinsel
#

and for equinox, strength only affects the slash tickle

coral crest
#

If you don't know why it's not working, then you most likely don't know how the abilities interact

real sluice
wind kettle
#

gyre is a enemy density dependant frame and requires modding to a point where without adquate energy restoration from orbs or abilities would choke.

coral crest
real sluice
#

Cause I just got out of bed and haven’t logged in yet

#

I need coffee before I’m able to write an essay like I normally do lol

coral crest

Then I'm not sure why you're asking such a broad question

lunar blade

Anyways I gotta go

real sluice
#

Like, what specifics you need? I might be able to get the answer if ya prod my brain

coral crest
#

Byeeee

real sluice
#

Ah, well damn

coral crest
#

You can't just slap the same general build on Chroma and Equinox and expect it to "nuke"

wind kettle
coral crest
#

Now I'm gone

real sluice
#

Equinox, Titania (know her builds are different lol), xaku, wisp

#

Valkyr too

grave cloak
wind kettle
#

xaku i konw uses their 2nd, 4th , gaze for armour strip and the first to be silly. essentially becoming a mobile turret. anythign low level usually dies pretty quickly to that

#

wisp is likely using breach surge and some headshot silliness to take out multiple enemies, not a traditional nuke frame but good regardless.

#

titania, press 4 and have decently modded weapons

#

i dont play much of equinox so abilities are nto fresh in my mind but the diea is storing up damage then releasing it

real sluice
#

Titania is legit so fun, and idk why I don’t see many play her outside of relic missions

wind kettle

I mean fair. If you don’t like archwing movement then yeah she’s not for you

crisp pine

the roar setup is serious feast or famine.. even with energize and equalibrum it barely get energy back. Sometimes, you just run out of energy entirely on sevagoth. Equalibrum + energize is BARELY enough to cover the cost..

crisp pine
velvet pulsar
#

Huras or Shade?

crisp pine
#

shade.

velvet pulsar
#

Shade doesn't attack enemies with regular attack precept while invisible?

crisp pine
#

does it?

velvet pulsar
#

If it can, then tazicor can help with health orb spawns

coral crest
#

It can't

velvet pulsar
#

Oh not even regular precept?

coral crest
#

That's the main difference between shade and huras. Huras can attack

velvet pulsar
#

I know shade has its own precept which disables it from attacking when you're invisible

#

Didn't know regular precept also fails that

coral crest
#

Coolant leak for an example would break invisibility

severe bough
velvet pulsar
#

But that won't proc synth Deconstruct

severe bough
coral crest
#

And it also won't give invisibility to duplex clones

#

Leading to stray shots

velvet pulsar
#

And I doubt that duplex bond clones spawning energy orbs will be enough

coral crest
#

Huras can go invisible and attack meanwhile

severe bough
# severe bough It doesnt?

I mean clones dont apply to the mods but iirc when 1 dupe is on the field your on invis shade also attacks so it should still work with snyth

coral crest
#

And proc deconstruct reliably

crisp pine

yeah the whole issue is that I am still running out of energy with sevagoth even with energize and equalibrum. I am using shade and can't proc deconstruct..

coral crest
#

Use huras

quiet laurel

I have 2 unconventional suggestions if you're not using zenurik

efficiency on sevagoth is so important

It forces orbs out of corpses

quiet laurel
#

pls tell me you are not for real 😭

strength shards

and strength arcanes

that is expensive

coral crest
#

Grimoire with energy regen?

quiet laurel
velvet pulsar
#

What other arcane u using than energize?

crisp pine
coral crest
#

Ah, right

#

You're using invisibility

velvet pulsar
crisp pine
#

I have tried to make it work with passive shield gating (both with big shields and small shields). It did not work well.

quiet laurel
#

way too mod expensive for sevagoth

#

sevagoth is kinda forced to active gate

#

or do invisibility shenanigens if that makes you sleep at night

velvet pulsar
#

Broken Scepter spawns health orbs from organic dead bodies and energy orbs from robotic dead bodies

quiet laurel
velvet pulsar
#

More like remembered

crisp pine
velvet pulsar
#

I'm sure several people don't remember Magus Accelerant

coral crest
#

Magus accelebad

velvet pulsar
#

There's zenurik

#

Operator arcane

quiet laurel
#

if you consider scepter an option idk what to tell you 😭

#

zenurik on sevagoth also kinda eh cause it messes with shield gate

velvet pulsar
#

And if u wait more than a week, then focus school ultimates

velvet pulsar
weary lily

Anyonge got a good mid game (just starting steelpath) excalibur umbra build

coral crest

#

then its fine ig but holy this is a scuffed build

coral crest
#

It really is

quiet laurel
#

like best solution is just get rid of blind rage and invest into him more

velvet pulsar
#

Honestly I think a Hound with guardian can also offer good survivability

quiet laurel
#

you cant get around to investing much into sevgoth for the good results

quiet laurel
#

as a standalone option that is

velvet pulsar
#

It covers Synth Deconstruct
Unconventional survivability via radiation priming, which does affect eximus as well
Viral priming is always welcome, specially against eximus, but sure if u want cold priming for more survivability.

#

sorry for teh confusion

#

I would need to sac either flow or overextended

crisp pine
velvet pulsar
#

I never bothered to understand the sevagoth tech

#

I only know that u slap 2 augments together and u get a true dmg lvl disrespecting nuke

quiet laurel
#

both augments are basically must slots

#

1st augment gives you more shadows which means bigger AoE coverage

#

2nd augment spreads sow

crisp pine
quiet laurel
#

tbh range isnt as important as you would think

#

just stretch will do tbh

velvet pulsar
#

Aura and Exilus also offer STR

#

exilus also offers range

#

(scratch the aura, growing power won't proc in ur case)

grave cloak
#

if you are playing with pre made squad could be easier ig if you have a pocket rhino and nokko

crisp pine
#

I got it to 255 already now after taking out overextended

#

although the build is now matching the rate energy i get with brightbonnet now but with more damage. Issue now is dealing with the acotyles.

#

sevagoth is just such narrow frame to design around

distant jackal
#

How does one build lavos?

I also recommend going passive gate route since it scales better

you can also subsume omamori on top if passive gating isnt enough

Ill just do wp platform

#

Never asking chat gpt for builds again holy

coral crest
#

Lavos is pretty easy to build, only thing you have to decide on is how you're going to survive

fresh surge
#

warfame has to many elements for gpt to give anything usefull

coral crest
#

Because he has probably the most horrid example of a health tank expiration date syndrome

fresh surge
#

lavos is the only frame that has shield but can't shieldgate DagathLUL

coral crest
#

Where he can tank in his sleep at one point and then get slapped and explode at another

grave cloak
#

I can't tell which is worse for asking builds tbh, chatgpt or in game qna chat

coral crest
#

Cc = survivability most of the time in DE's eyes and he's a health tank

#

Death sentence

charred gale
fresh surge
coral crest
#

There are worse places but I won't mention them

#

There's also one worse place I can mention (Grind Hard Squad)

distant jackal
#

Both my protea builds arend 230 str

fresh surge
#

well how much do they have bc that one had less than 100% DagathLUL

coral crest
#

In all fairness, if they let Lavos have some sort of scaling survivability he'd probably be too good to exist

fresh surge
#

and he argued the passive alone is good enough to cover for that

charred gale
#

Or any invisible frame

coral crest
#

I'm not talking about strength or usefulness

#

More about game design

fresh surge
coral crest
#

Lavos is a cc frame with a nuke ability that has huge range

fresh surge
#

but bellow 100% is vile 💀

coral crest
#

DE never gives those any sort of survivability

#

But he's a health tank, so they gave him no in-kit ways to scale that survivability

#

Unlike literally any other health tank

#

All he gets is status immunity

charred gale
fresh surge
fresh surge
#

if you are not going for level cap he is easy to survive with imo

distant jackal
coral crest
#

Unlike most health tanks, again

old marsh
coral crest
#

Due to having no internal DR/armor sources that you can put on top

#

Look at Grendel, even he has that

#

And he has status immunity as well

#

And shield gating

fresh surge
#

yea but most playerbase doesn't see levels above the 400

coral crest
#

Very fair point, it's more of a personal gripe

#

I think if they let Orphidian Bite flow into shields/overshields it would've made Lavos like a billion times better for endurance without making him too strong for normal play

#

So it could be a form of proactive defense instead of picking your exploded ass up and gluing it back together

It’s ok. Be mindful Archon intensify only procs when u actually heal something. U can slot in Umbral for consistent STR. And u may wanna use fused reservoir for Exilus. And I got no idea why is there a Amar mod. Might as well slot something else based on comfort. And given there is bellicose, u can either pair it with arcane blessing or have an HP mod to boost your HP more so with her 1, u can hit that sweet 3k HP threshold

#

Point of the build is to get as much STR as u can. Adjust based on preference.

Biggest problem with that build is your energy economy will suck
