Such an awesome and informative video. I love how you go through absolutely everything - focus school, companion, weapons, synergies, everything. Very very nice
20:24 - 20:41 This right here is important. Only certain enemies can produce those juicy 2.1 Billion dmg numbers. i was in the simulacrum for hours trying to figure why... whyyy cant I hit dmg cap. I'm glad I rewatched the vid and listened to this part.
My favourite frame at the moment, I'm playing with melee crescendo as well currently to stay at 12x combo. Trying to see if I can while nourish is active, just use 3 then 1, and just use diriga to prime. Use vazarin school, group with no2, kulervo 3 to hit all and no1 to melee kill all which procs ground finishers to build crescendo.
I recreated a very similar build for my kullervo with all purple shards and it made me hit my very first damage cap Took me a good week to get kullervo hate with Adapter the helminth Segment and tons of bile to remove old shards but it was 100% worth it this warframe is simply amazing imo
Best tip for Kullervo: switch his abilities to inverted. That way all you have to do is tap r1 instead of holding down r1 for wrathful advance. Makes it a million times better 🙏
Just a reminder that Syam has a funny gimmick (or a few) First, it's bugged, CO multiplies Base damage mods, so you want Preasure point Arcane fury and Steel Charge Even tho it may sound weird, you want gas electrick on it, with melee influence The shockwave traves 70 mts, it has 40mts terrain punch through, so after a wall, it goes 40 meters straight, ypu can kill more enemies that what ypu can see Collective curse shares damage between enemies, so if it hits more than one linked dude, it's almost like if they took more than one hit of the same attack that has no fallof nor follow through reduction, meaning, rolm nuke, and far hallway nuke too Meaning, basically, it's the META kullervo melee, period Unless you put Titron into the question, then it can rival for single target (nuke with CoC) damage, but not for easy nuke, since Syam removes the need for any buildup or the actual requirement of CoC
I bought Qorvex recently to main as since i lost my old account, after seeing Kullervo and what he could do though I decided to switch mains lol, still love you tho Qorvex
Absolutely love this video i was unsure of the Rauta shotgun and how it actually works within this setup and now i know. Im looking forward to trying this out soon only issue is my shard count is near 0 at the moment so may have to wait 3-4 weeks to build em back up... DE fix Netracells!!. Seriously though another great video with some KEY information if you don't know how primers work you need to watch this! Keep it up dude and I look forward to the next one!
i know,It's been a few months. But using a Zaw is also very interesting, since Exodia Force if it has a hit with status, it has 50% to deal 200% damage to enemies within 6 meters, so another opportunity to deal more damage with Curse
This build got so much better with the Jade update giving us the Harmony scythe and its BULLSHIT OP heavy attacks, and thats even before adding on Melee Afflictions. Also, I opted to put Nourish over Collective Curse, as i find the ability pain in the arse to use given that you HAVE to be aiming at an enemy for it to work, and if they move or you miss it still casts the ability costing the energy but does nothing. If it was just a "every enemy within the 65 degree cone is chained together" effect, i wouldnt have subsumed it off. That, plus i like Wrath of Ukkos constant combo counter build up and time scaling. have enough enemies and you can cast it once and have it run until the end. It just feels nice.
Hey man this is just what I was looking for!Where's his survivability? I noticed he's really struggling with over guard in just an hour long SP surv. You should do a video on surviving with him. If I missed something crucial in the video please let me know :)
Survival comes from Overguard + Priming mostly. OG Gating -> Rolling Guard if needed -> Priming with Radiation & Companion Radiation should be good enough for most cases. It's a similar-ish style to Shield Gating. Combination of Gates + Crowd Control
I really hope you come back to Kullervo and revisit him with his augment that lets you extend the duration of his 4 and move it to wherever he casts his 1, its amazing and made me subsume his 3 with nourish so I can easily spam the 1 and clear hallways with semi relative ease just slash procing everything
Damn great video! Just have a question though, at 15:30. Would it be better to use Coaction Drift rather than Power Drift? Oh, and I use both mods in my build because, well, why not?, But I just want to know. Kullervo's fun as fuck to use, hell he's strong even without Archon Shards, that's how strong he is.
Good video tenno. I been studying this frame since release. I pushed it a bit further. On the frame I found that holster amp and vigorous swap is a much ( hidden damage) also I didn't put any elements on my weapon only the melee arcane exposure cause the amount of damage your dealing armor doesn't matter
If you ignore his range, efficieny, and continuity and build into max energy and strength, he's literally invincible unless you forget to refrensh your over guard, between strength and zenurik i have his overguard at 33000 which can refresh in an instant and be spammed in mobs. Never once been downed with him in steel path or netracells.
I'm looking for a build like this. Do you mind sharing. I have looked all over for a good build and found nothing I like. But your build seems right up my ally and In my wheel house.
Hey Rukey - I have a video on my channel which shows most of my fashion. However currently I am redoing all my builds for 2024 then I'm redoing my Fashion for 2024 as-well. If you prefer to join my Livestream and ask I don't mind quickly showing a request here and there
I love Wrathful Advance. I just recently started using melee weapons after account linking and switching from console to PC. I put Wrathful Advance on my Gauss Prime and go full blender with Guandao Prime and all the red crits. Im curious which frame is the best pilot for Wrathful Advance subsume. I really want to try it on Baruuk, but i inly just built him. Saryn is another one that seems would be good. I'm excited to see more melee builds on this channel!
Critical Damage & Damage are the better ones to roll for (when in Kullervo's hands) An Elemental like Toxin isn't a bad thing to have on the Riven as it's a good flex into two combinations: Corrosive & Viral. Overall though, it's mostly Critical Damage/Damage you're looking for if you want raw power and are building up your Combo Counter naturally
This is one of my favorite builds I've ever seen, but just a quick question. If I wanted to not helminth Nourish because I like the combo building mechanic of his 4 and it's QOL, what would change about the build? I know viral might have some effect that could tamper with some stuff you've modded. Or does it just stay the same? (Besides of course just swapping in arcane energize for one of the arcanes to compensate for the Nourish loss.
Hey dude, thanks If I kept the 4 in: I would adjust my build for Primed Flow + Equilibrium + ENERGIZE to make sure I can sustain my energy needs. That being said, with extremely high costing casts due to the low efficiency, I may need backup elsewhere like Azure/Amber shards to help. It's one of the reasons why I decided to go against his 4th for this build in particular. Viral is a nice additional from Nourish but definitely not a full requirement. If you wish for bigger amplification then it will definitely help with extra damage, but this is beyond overkill anyways haha. Viral can build up faster from the Primer regardless and then helping your energy as I mentioned above would arguably replace the Nourish and allow you to keep the full Kullervo kit instead. Either way, there is a little wiggle room so definitely take the time to trial and test. Hope this information helped in some way
I use a build that focuses on his 4, It have great coverage and kills anything if you pair it with roar, I subsumed his 1st unfortunately. But I have no issues with survivability.
@@ihatescamo as much range and strength with a little duration. I have some archon shards for cast speed but otherwise i have 128% duration 50% efficiency 280% range 225% strength. I increase strength with other arcanes and whatnot. I could send you the build if you want. I dont know how I would though
hunter adrenaline says ally overguard counts as health if no shields are preasent... doesnt that mean he has infinite energy? what am i missing and why doesnt everybody run that mod?
Not entirely sure what you're asking - but Strength continues to buff anything else that scales off Strength values. In this build that would be Overguard from Recompense and Nourish on-top of Wrathful. I don't utilise my 3rd that often so the Redirection value doesn't mean anything to me personally so I continue to scale other abilities.
Not really unless something is bugged/unintended. Hitting Damage Cap alone would be such insane strength that everyone would use that weapon. An example of this was the Melee Weapon named "Harmony", it used to be able to do 2.1b in a headshot hit with no buffs or primers needed - this however was patched recently
Where did you see it's capped at 0.80? Unfortunately that information isn't correct. Fire rate mods do affect the fire rate. Try entering a mission (or simulacrum) with no mods and shoot, and then pop on Barrage and Frail Momentum and shoot. You will feel the difference immediately
Condition Overload is worth using if you are noticing at-least a good 3 to 4 Status Types being procced often enough to make it reliable. This can come from any source, not just your companion by all means. If you aren't finding something that outsources elements enough, then you can stick with Primed Pressure Point for that reliable damage increase. CO just scales better.
Has anyone tried the furax wraith/incarnon with breach surge over his 4th If don’t correctly with the curse ability belonging to KULLERVO damage will disintegrate most enemies leaving only a shadow of where they once were. I’m running a heat,radiation,magnetic + melee arcane for corrosive damage on melee attacks. I haven’t quite figured out chaining other weapons to move damage around I’ve simply focused on one weapon to kill all or most things.
I havent played in four years because I had a switch account. Got back into it by merging accounts on my ps5 and everything sucks. My warframe builds and weapons do shit damage. Should I just delete the game? Im frustrated as hell
It's part of the learning curve - as is with any game. Things are frustrating because they don't make sense. So, best solution is to put in time to help make it make sense. There's plenty of guides, walkthrough's, playthrough's, websites and streams that help players. So if you need help, seek the information you need help with and there will always be someone there to help guide you
Can we take a second to appreciate that warframe has power creeped so much that the damage numbers are literally reaching the integer limit for how high computers can count XD
Just reminder that Kullervo is extremely good for gunplay as well. You can clear whole rooms with single Rubico bullet.
Facts
How?
@@ihatescamo His 3 (the curse ability) Links every enemy cursed so that if you hit one. They all take damage. Its his best ability by far
Your comment lives in my head rent free. Using his 3rd ability with my nataruk is crazyyy
Remember, AOE weapons ramp up like crazy too! Each instance of damage done to any linked enemies applies to all of them
Awesome guide! I played the game 10 years and never hit damage cap before and with this build I was able to.
Just built my Kullervo. Time to put up some big boy numbers. Great informative video, thanks Clarke!
Have fun taylor!
Such an awesome and informative video. I love how you go through absolutely everything - focus school, companion, weapons, synergies, everything. Very very nice
Thanks Lucas
Thanks for going in depth with everything really helped me get back on the saddle for modding

Ty for the build, Just got him loving his playstyle

You could also subsume Titania with the augment and flip it to cast on you incase you jump into the wrong fight
Best tip for Kullervo: switch his abilities to inverted. That way all you have to do is tap r1 instead of holding down r1 for wrathful advance.
Makes it a million times better 🙏
Pretty sure you can tap r1 on an enemy (ps5) anyway to teleport and perform finisher and holding down u can teleport to any location within range of
@KingBob-l1y super late to the party but invert allows tap to finisher as well. Just put reticle on enemy to finisher and aim away from enemy for tp.
Ah, so that's why I see so many people using Epitaph.
This is the kullervo video I have been looking for
Subbed. Thank you for actually explaining what the mods do and why youre using them and not just acting like everyone already knows.
Really enjoyed this, very informative and educational :)
Just a reminder that Syam has a funny gimmick (or a few)
First, it's bugged, CO multiplies Base damage mods, so you want Preasure point Arcane fury and Steel Charge
Even tho it may sound weird, you want gas electrick on it, with melee influence
The shockwave traves 70 mts, it has 40mts terrain punch through, so after a wall, it goes 40 meters straight, ypu can kill more enemies that what ypu can see
Collective curse shares damage between enemies, so if it hits more than one linked dude, it's almost like if they took more than one hit of the same attack that has no fallof nor follow through reduction, meaning, rolm nuke, and far hallway nuke too
Meaning, basically, it's the META kullervo melee, period
Unless you put Titron into the question, then it can rival for single target (nuke with CoC) damage, but not for easy nuke, since Syam removes the need for any buildup or the actual requirement of CoC
I bought Qorvex recently to main as since i lost my old account, after seeing Kullervo and what he could do though I decided to switch mains lol, still love you tho Qorvex
I did the same thing. I love Qorvex gameplay but kullervo just destorys everything so far
Absolutely love this video i was unsure of the Rauta shotgun and how it actually works within this setup and now i know. Im looking forward to trying this out soon only issue is my shard count is near 0 at the moment so may have to wait 3-4 weeks to build em back up... DE fix Netracells!!. Seriously though another great video with some KEY information if you don't know how primers work you need to watch this! Keep it up dude and I look forward to the next one!
Good news, netracells are high on the list to be fixed according to Reb
i know,It's been a few months. But using a Zaw is also very interesting, since Exodia Force if it has a hit with status, it has 50% to deal 200% damage to enemies within 6 meters, so another opportunity to deal more damage with Curse

Damn removed the best ability
@DangoPower when i did that, it was bugged and only worked if I was aiming directly at an enemy. Got fixed, so now it's back.

I'm looking for a build like this. Do you mind sharing. I have looked all over for a good build and found nothing I like. But your build seems right up my ally and In my wheel house.
Slapping nourish on his last ability was the first thing I did
also what's the stats on the riven?
what incarnon modes did you choose?
My fav melee frame right now is volt using shock trooper wraithful advance and melee influence on a slash weapon with status damage modded on
do you think Kullervo's subsumable ability could produce a Baruuk red crit build ?
everyone in doubt about kullervo just has to try him with the corufell, it’s insanity
Stropha seems so much better to me. nothing comes close
Please show the fashion frame kullervo! I really like your kullervo ❤

Can you tell me how Did you do your Kullervo Drip? Please
does it matter what parts is hound made of ?
also
does that hate build works on dark split swords ? or i need to do some changes
Ahhh yes... my top favorite arcane is used here! 7:54 xd
do you think you'd be able to make a video for valkyr? I want subsume kullervos 1 for her 1 but don't know how I should build her
I'll definitely be getting around to this! Got lots to cook up, forgive me but it'll take a while to slowly release all of them lol
Got one more question...... Now as for your Hate riven..... What stats are on it? or do you think are "best" for Kullervo's sake?
Critical Damage & Damage are the better ones to roll for (when in Kullervo's hands)
An Elemental like Toxin isn't a bad thing to have on the Riven as it's a good flex into two combinations: Corrosive & Viral.
Overall though, it's mostly Critical Damage/Damage you're looking for if you want raw power and are building up your Combo Counter naturally
What’s that fashion frame I need to know
if you dont have the riven mod, what mod should i use?

Would you still use Helstrum on the Nautilus or would you use something else?
I prefer Helstrum because of it's Micro-rocket splash AOE. So it's mostly for that reason solely
Can it also work on wolf sledge?
are the melee builds universal? like can we use them on every warframe or are they kullervo-only?
I use a build that focuses on his 4, It have great coverage and kills anything if you pair it with roar, I subsumed his 1st unfortunately. But I have no issues with survivability.

What melee are you using in the video
Hate
is that riven Hate Crita-Acriada or is it called Hate Crita-Acriata
hunter adrenaline says ally overguard counts as health if no shields are preasent... doesnt that mean he has infinite energy? what am i missing and why doesnt everybody run that mod?
Use his 3rd with felarx or phenmor with xata whisper, long range build
Would it be possible to hit damage cap with corufell? Also what stats does your hate riven have
Crit chance crit DMg with atk speed and a neg.
I used redeemer with it and it felt illegal.
Is kullervo good for endurance runs now?
He is really good at killing,but if you look away for one moment you will die, his survivability is awful
question why are we going over 200% on ability strength everything caps at that for melee?
Not entirely sure what you're asking - but Strength continues to buff anything else that scales off Strength values. In this build that would be Overguard from Recompense and Nourish on-top of Wrathful. I don't utilise my 3rd that often so the Redirection value doesn't mean anything to me personally so I continue to scale other abilities.
Is it possible to hit dmg cap with out priming? Using kullervo and a pennant the highest recorded dmg I have gotten is 366 million.
Not really unless something is bugged/unintended. Hitting Damage Cap alone would be such insane strength that everyone would use that weapon. An example of this was the Melee Weapon named "Harmony", it used to be able to do 2.1b in a headshot hit with no buffs or primers needed - this however was patched recently

Guys Condition overload worth to use over pressure point if i only use the diriga for primeing?
Condition Overload is worth using if you are noticing at-least a good 3 to 4 Status Types being procced often enough to make it reliable. This can come from any source, not just your companion by all means. If you aren't finding something that outsources elements enough, then you can stick with Primed Pressure Point for that reliable damage increase. CO just scales better.
Allright thanks
Yes. Diriga + your own melee weapon will provide enough status effects.
Is that a syandana on his back? Ive seen this in a few vids now.
Yeah it’s kullervos syandana
I just kept seeing it everytime I went to syanadanas so I decided to get it. It goes well with every skin for me
Does anyone know if the energy gain is still enough with this build if i don’t subsume any of his abilities?
i want to hit damage cap xD what was the hate riven btw
Oh did I not show it? Oops! Critical Chance & Critical Damage pretty much.
cant u use red shards bc u dont even need energy for the buff?
the question - why purple?
@@spiori7552purple gives crit damage and its doubled with over 500 energy
