Viral and slash... Of course I enjoy using it because of your guides. I also have the corrosive/toxin and the radiation builds when I want a bit more of a challenge. Thank you for in depth guides and wonderful content. I always enjoy your videos and have a lot saved so that I can watch them while playing and actually use the guides, not to copy, but I have the memory of a goldfish. Keep up the great work and thank you again for such amazing videos.
I like that you put a damage type symbol on the top of the screen -- that makes it very easy to find and re-watch info about a particular damage type without timestamps
I think DE should remove the simulacrum enemy level cap being tied to your mastery rank. As an MR16 I'm capped to 125 while regularly facing lvl 225 enemies
No, they shouldn't because no one is casually or even grinding at that high of a level in any casual capacity for any real reason the game offers You losers just want to show off niche builds that are for level cap to then say something is useless because in the sim it doesn't 1 shot a lvl 9999 enemy
@@kassaken6521same but I purchased the deluxe of final shape thinking it was going to be smooth with no massive issues. Now I regret purchasing the deluxe when I could have used that to get multiple Warframe packs but I didn’t play Warframe till recently thanks to Evanf1997. Because he said in one of his videos that he was trying it out and I now play it each day.
@@shadowbush5021 Same, but not really regretting the deluxe. I'm still gonna go play the new content and get the godrolls for the good new weapons. That being said, if you want to actually keep all your stuff and level your MR in warframe, you really don't have a choice but to spend money in the game. I've gotten 30 hours in without spending anything but I can see the writing on the wall.
i just started playing last week after a three year break. i’ve been watching your videos almost exclusively for help. and this time i didn’t even get two minutes into the video before i learned something new. i appreciate this so much 🙏🏾
Thanks for the updated guide Blacky! I was really looking forward to it. I'm also really glad that not all Warframe creators switched to The First Descendant. :D
again a very informative and nice explanatory video with great visual elements! damage and status types have always been extremely complicated from me starting warframe up to this date and they have constantly been changed from damage 1.0 to 2.0 and now with the damage/status type reworks. it's really hard to keep up with all the changes if you took a break or if you just started out playing warframe.
I have seen people talking smack on mhblacky but this guy was my first wf creator I watched, and i can't fault his content your the goat, there seems to be some spiteful players who view certain channels as bad?! keep on keeping on love from scotland.
my tenet cycron build does around 150 heat every second and basically instantly puts 10 radiation and viral on at the same time. status beam weapons go crazy.
IMO, magnetic is now one of the best options for progenitor elements for Kuva and Tenet weapons. Previously, toxin or heat were generally the best, but being able to easily add on a status that makes eximus units much easier to take care of goes a lot farther than just "adding more damage". I have found that magnetic works better than toxin against Corpus as well, as while toxin bypasses shields, it does not bypass armor, which some Corpus units have. Of course, if you have a specific build in mind then it might not be best. I'm currently using a Kuva Quartakk with heat and turn it into blast, and it does really well, even for steel path.
MH, I stopped playing warframe for about 5 years (2019-2024) and so much changed that I felt overwhelmed. I just finished the new war and wanted to say that your videos have made my return rather pleasant. Sad to see some of my old creators not around but the player base is as healthy as ever which is nice, I feel like an OG
Note, Caliban can deal tau damage. It just makes other status effects 10% more effective per stack, up to a max of 5 i believe. It isnt crazy but its nice if youre running status weapons with him.
We have missions with rooms filled with eximus. At least in belly of beast missions. I wouldn't say that magnetic is nieche due to the abundance of overshield enemies we currently have.
To be precise, The last 2% armor for full armor enemies is 54 which means ~15% dmg reduction. So using 2 normal shards give you additional ~14% dmg boost after full corrosion status applied.
In addition to blast being good with grouping enemies, it is also very good on AOE/Chaining weapons, since the status effect is multiplicative with the amount of enemies affected. The same is true for electric and gas as well.
impact is not useles since it allows for mercy kills on eximuses giving you time for shield recharge during the animation, it stops dots like heat and electric from damaging you, quick way to instakill the eximus and trigger all the parazon mods which may include more power strenght, aoe blind, health/energy drops etc, sure dont build around impact but it is always nice to have, and there are mods that can convert impact status to slash :) i would always rather have some impact on a weapon than to have none
12:23 annoyingly, the void damage from the amp is different than void damage from xata's whisper. this kind of synergy been purposely coded out is really annoying.
Hello, noob here. Idk why DOT damage is so lorded over. Isn't warframe a fast paced game? Naturally, you would focus and gun enemy till they die before switching to the next target. Doesn't that then mean DOT is one of the worst type of thing to rely on? You don't shoot enemies and wait till they die, would we? The only way I think it can shine is on bosses.
For the basic star chart you can do exactly that, but once you get to steel path (basically new game +) the health numbers and armor on enemies get a high enough that its a challenge to just gun them down unless you have really good weapon buffs. At least thats what I think. I dont play steel path for that reason. Edit: You can also build for crits but that’s pretty dependent on the weapon you use, and the builds tend to be more expensive
Less things to worry about if your DOT does a good amount of damage enough to kill the enemy without you constantly shooting at them then it’s less enemies to worry about especially on steel path or mid game, and with a lot of Warframe abilities relying on you killing a lot of enemies to keep up stacks, duration and damage it just makes sense. Standing and killing one enemy is optimal nor will it help you a lot especially on infinite missions like survival
To better answer your question dot damages often deal a percentage of health as a dot and stacks. And depending on the patch/status they also sometimes ignore armor values. And when armor and hp values get insane like steel path having percent health damage that ignores armor is extremely helpful.
at high levels the majority of the damage comes from conditional overload (and or gun CO), which gives you more damage on an enemy depending on the number of status types you have on your enemies. Might as well have more damage on those statuses (DOTS) if you're gonna put them on anyway!
I went from pure crit and 90% dmg elementals to high status heat procs in the hundreds, fire rate and 20% crit is good enough. Almost all enemies can be killed with enough heat procs, you should be worried about steelpath zealoid, idk what that thing is made of because holy fire doesn't work.
Heat viral slash and radiation seem to be my go to universal build lately. Seems to shred the best against all factions. Still playing with blast but i don’t feel i’m getting amazing results with it. Could be a me problem though.
@@Faze_Obama53 not necessarily thanks to the new radiation mods(focus radon?). The setup works best with a base stat of heat or toxin though. Then you can just run toxin, cold, radiation. I’d have to go back and look at what weapons i’ve been able to effectively run it on and get back to you. Currently i’ve been playing around with Excal Umbra and my exalted blade is running. Viral, Heat, Rad and that seems to be giving me the best results of all the combinations. Viral electric and slash are also solid with melee when you add melee influence
Before the rework, Heat, Viral, and Slash were my go-tos. After the rework, they're still very useful, so I haven't changed up very many of my weapon loadouts.
@@ErikMikkelsen1 same here. Still trying to make some blast corrosive builds work but it still seems like i’m getting best general results from viral slash heat builds.
i dont know if its possible considering the limited mod slots and then also base elements combining into other elements like corrosive. but regaurdless it wont be a very good damage build generally because of being unable to narrow down on a specific damage type or base damage. plus certain factions are weak to certain elements so it isnt efficient anyways. hope this helps :)
I like how he reused his intro from his first video on damage types xD Good call back Also I find it funny u use genshin to show other games eith less elements when genshin has Physical Geo Electro Pyro Hydro Dendro Cryo Superconduct Shatter Bloom Hyperbloom Burgeoning Freeze Melt Vape Burning Etc😂
Something I’ve been curious about but haven’t seen anyone talk about yet is the mod boreals contempt, and how it stacks with the new status damage mods
Wait wait wait, I thought the "Elementalist" mods only worked on ELEMENTAL damage, (so not IPS) have I been missing out on slash!??? I'm gonna go tweak my new concectrix build really quick, thanks!
Yall don't know how much I cried when I tried banshee 4 with the new blast just to realize it doest inflict status procs it just does blast dmg ;-;...banshee is ass
Disagree... I use her routinely. Crowd control, finishers, sneaking and damage options, plus total armor strip aug and extra damage? C'mon, it's practically boring.
@seethlaemmert5175 womp womp cope harder No u right..and I I should have been more specific I meant she is ass for me I don't play meta stuff As a quadratic scaling oberon main I like janky weird synergies so I was just disappointed I couldn't do weird blast stuff with her Ik she is good ...just not good for me lol
@@jenex7623 if nothing else, get Ban's helminth power, silence. I have that on protea, wth the aug. Either one of them are fast, so you can just instant finish lots of mobs, then (Bansh again) use your sonar for ridiculous damage with about any weapon... With a partner getting the same benefits from you just being there. I've done steel path with Ban like that, and mine is made of tissue! It is a bunch of fun. Mod for duration, give it a try!
You forgot one special dmg type that only applies to Nukor. Microwave damage type. It only expand the limb you damage for 5 seconds, and it stays on the enemy until they die. It doesn't show up on the stat symbols when you damage an enemy though, but it does count towards condition overload and other mods that does extra damage by status types.
I hope that the system will be adapted a little more in terms of the elements. I would love it if you could decide whether the elements can be used in combination or individually. For example, I would like to be able to use an electro and ice effect at the same time. This would allow many new builds and offer more depth. Hope they improve this after 11 years.
Since you recommended to skip a second emerald archon shard for the corrosive procs, does that mean full-strip isn't necessary even on max level enemies now with this rework?
like he said, the difference between 98% armor reduction and 100% armor reduction is not noticeable in game. full strip is great, but if you're going for the specific type of build he was discussing, then it's not really necessary and that archon slot is better used on something else.
I like to put the Elementalist mod on my Companions weapons since I usually use Companions to status prime the enemies I prioritise modding my companions weapons with Cold and Slash but I also try to get staus effects such as Gas, Radiation, and whatever I can get more of I usually use viral and heat on my weapons and recently been trying out magnetic wich feels quite strong especially against Corpus and Murmurs
Love the genshin start 😂❤ playing the gane since 3.3 , also spend more real money there. In this year was my first time using real money since 2018 to get the harrow operator suit ❤
FYI magnetic is bugged when it comes to the electric proc on shield/OG break. The dmg it deals are based on the weapon used, the % mentioned is currently not working.
okay i looked it up on wiki and it says that for example slash deals 35% of base damage over 6 second, so its like that, burn deals 50% and you need to look on wiki to see other.
Man, I still remember the old days when people laughed at me for using Blast element because of how useless it used to be compared to almost any other option. My opinion was that every enemy knocked off their feet was one less enemy shooting at me. Not great enough to justify it over Radiation, back then, but hey, I was a newbie. Still, I'm super happy to see it getting such a massive boost to its usefulness. Especially on Deimos. That place is hellish & anything to make it less sucky is okay by me; the solution being one of my og fav elements is icing on the cake.❤
@chainsawplayin Well, that & its ability to actually do meaningful damage has been boosted into the stratosphere, now that the blasts apply to stacks and deaths in a respectable range. I'm gonna enjoy using this on those damn splitters & centipedes on Deimos. Now if only it was useful in Eidolon hunts.😅
Bro the game drops me the most obscure mods like Amars Anguish but won’t give me Condition Overload and pistol status chance which I actually need lmao
The only thing I am confused about is slash damage vs status effect. Does the status only bypass armor or the instant damage from the shot aswell. My guess would be that only the status bypasses armor because it would be way too strong if the dmg would bypass armor
nowdays it doesn't really matter as slash doesn't have a negative bonus, but slash damage itself didn't do much damage to armor, but its status effect "Bleed" bypasses armor
Hopefully Blacky or another helpful Tenno sees my comment and can answer my question. Which of these things are most impactful in a loadout? By loadout I mean the whole spiel: Warframe, Primary Weapon, Secondary Weapon, Meele, Companion, Operator. What should my priority for acquiring those be? Which of these things will help me get the next significant boost in damage and survivability?
Bro focus on ur quests for now focus on primes and so on later, get inaros and do the sacrifice for the umbra mods, slap hem on inaros try and get an adaptation from trade chat for like 15-20 P and slap it on boom u won't die in two hits do all ur quests and gather mods like blind rage transient fortitude and so on before you try and get a fully loaded archon shard saryn prime nuking steel path XD
That's a tricky question to answer and i am just someone who have 1k hours so i will try my best, my goto for telling beginners is "Grab Rhino, Get Hek and Xoris, then start building for endgame" But that's not the answer you are looking for. First of all priority wise Frames>Weaps(Yes all 3)>Companion>Operator(i assume you are talking about amp and focus school) Their relationship feel like stacking deck of card to make a pyramid without the other it will fall apart, but here is the logic for my placements Good frames with bad weapon will get you overrun since you can't kill but you can compensate with some tanky frames like Revenant or Rhino to tank but eventually you will still get overrun. while "bad frames" with good weapon can go through some part of the game, their weakness will be apparent since you will start to struggle since your frames ability doesn't support you. I don't believe there is bad Frames for say more like too niche to be used or you use it in the wrong mission like Revenant might be immortal but those defense objective aren't or Nyx ability might be cool as hell then you realize isn't as useful in like 80% of the situation XD companion are impactful in what they do for example Carrier for those weapons that have ammo issue, Panzer Vulpa for those Viral, or Smeeta for those random buff. But as long as you have Vacuum/Fetch you can sideline them for a bit and focus on the other stuff first. Operator is a weird ones since you can just slap Zenurik for like 80% of the content and call it day. Then you have Madurai for Cascade and Eido. Amp and Operator Arcane will be more impactful when you finally reach Zariman to kill thraxes and void angels, while the amps you got from the questlines (Sirocco, not Mote) is decent enough it doesn't hold up to what you can make and WILL falloff at higher lvl. This is just my opinion tho, also i am talking about casual/new players not the Shield Gate lvl cap master that can literally go in mission with anything and it will work somehow. Still this is an opinion and feel free to question me about this.
Wow wow wow im a reterning player and o my god, DE cooked, you cooked, and im loving it all, instant subscriber, Iflynn held my hand for the past 10 years and now im excited to see more ahh!
if you want exalted melee (so melee weapons as a ability) use excalibur or baruuk if you just want regular melee weapons then use frames like wisp or rhino for buffs also kullervo is good as he gives your weapons alot of crit with his abilitys
I would assume Magnetic is the new option because magnetic has a bonus against all corpus now, including health and robotics. If your weapon has magnetic innately like a Kuva weapon you could add viral for self explanatory reasons
Id say blast is better in general but in a niche case where you use rakta dark dagger to survive which was shown in MHblacky's volt/saryn build then gas is better
Blast and Gas are optimal in almost the exact same circumstances, so it's hard to answer that question. My current take on it is that Blast is easier to use, but Gas can be stronger in the most optimal scenario. Said scenario being grouped up, armor striped enemies, in a narrow corridor, and procing the status effect from head shots. Mostly because in that scenario, Blast will kill everyone, and you will need to wait for them spawn and be in a good spot to continue killing them, but Gas clouds will just clean the corridor until their time runs out, and only them do you need to group and proc it again, so there is less maintenance of grouping for at least a couple seconds after every culling.
Hmmm... I'd say if the enemy has a weakness to either then of course pick that. Beyond that, for Blast you need to keep shooting to get the chain reaction, Gas creates the cloud and then you can stop and wait for a couple of seconds. Whatever fits your build best 😉
Viral doesn’t go through shield it only increases the damage you do to something, which is why people use slash and viral since slash goes thru shields and stuff
Which Damage Type is your Favourite?
cold and blast or heat is pretty good
viral or corrosive of course
Heat + Viral. It works universally with everything.
Viral and slash... Of course I enjoy using it because of your guides. I also have the corrosive/toxin and the radiation builds when I want a bit more of a challenge. Thank you for in depth guides and wonderful content. I always enjoy your videos and have a lot saved so that I can watch them while playing and actually use the guides, not to copy, but I have the memory of a goldfish.

I'm gonna go tweak my new concectrix build really quick, thanks!
Always appreciated
Happy I could help ^^
Thank you for the nice feedback
Great job ❤
Thank you :D Glad you liked it ^^
Yall don't know how much I cried when I tried banshee 4 with the new blast just to realize it doest inflict status procs it just does blast dmg ;-;...banshee is ass
Disagree... I use her routinely. Crowd control, finishers, sneaking and damage options, plus total armor strip aug and extra damage? C'mon, it's practically boring.
@seethlaemmert5175 womp womp cope harder
No u right..and I I should have been more specific I meant she is ass for me
I don't play meta stuff
As a quadratic scaling oberon main I like janky weird synergies so I was just disappointed I couldn't do weird blast stuff with her
Ik she is good ...just not good for me lol
@@jenex7623 if nothing else, get Ban's helminth power, silence.
I have that on protea, wth the aug.
Either one of them are fast, so you can just instant finish lots of mobs, then (Bansh again) use your sonar for ridiculous damage with about any weapon... With a partner getting the same benefits from you just being there. I've done steel path with Ban like that, and mine is made of tissue!
It is a bunch of fun. Mod for duration, give it a try!
Weird that another ytuber (Kengineer) has the same video released, not to long ago...
😂 Nvm just read description and saw that you shouted him out.
You forgot one special dmg type that only applies to Nukor. Microwave damage type. It only expand the limb you damage for 5 seconds, and it stays on the enemy until they die. It doesn't show up on the stat symbols when you damage an enemy though, but it does count towards condition overload and other mods that does extra damage by status types.
That's a status effect, not a damage type
Exalted umbra blade with blast damage is incredibly strong. I wish theyd add a mod like accelerated isotope mod that added the other elements
I hope that the system will be adapted a little more in terms of the elements. I would love it if you could decide whether the elements can be used in combination or individually. For example, I would like to be able to use an electro and ice effect at the same time. This would allow many new builds and offer more depth. Hope they improve this after 11 years.
That would indeed open up tons of options :O
What about Archons? Did their damage resistances change and should I mod now for Toxin slash instead of Radiation?
Since you recommended to skip a second emerald archon shard for the corrosive procs, does that mean full-strip isn't necessary even on max level enemies now with this rework?
like he said, the difference between 98% armor reduction and 100% armor reduction is not noticeable in game. full strip is great, but if you're going for the specific type of build he was discussing, then it's not really necessary and that archon slot is better used on something else.
I like to put the Elementalist mod on my Companions weapons since I usually use Companions to status prime the enemies
I prioritise modding my companions weapons with Cold and Slash but I also try to get staus effects such as Gas, Radiation, and whatever I can get more of
I usually use viral and heat on my weapons and recently been trying out magnetic wich feels quite strong especially against Corpus and Murmurs
Love the genshin start 😂❤ playing the gane since 3.3 , also spend more real money there. In this year was my first time using real money since 2018 to get the harrow operator suit ❤
FYI magnetic is bugged when it comes to the electric proc on shield/OG break. The dmg it deals are based on the weapon used, the % mentioned is currently not working.
So your saying i spent a week trying to build a fun to turn corpus to dust
Just for it to not work
G r e a t
@@namedless everything other then the electric proc works as intended from what i been able to gather and test
one thing that im still confused about. when u proc any DOT like slash, on what exactly is the damage the proc deals based off?
okay i looked it up on wiki and it says that for example slash deals 35% of base damage over 6 second, so its like that, burn deals 50% and you need to look on wiki to see other.
Man, I still remember the old days when people laughed at me for using Blast element because of how useless it used to be compared to almost any other option.
My opinion was that every enemy knocked off their feet was one less enemy shooting at me.
Not great enough to justify it over Radiation, back then, but hey, I was a newbie.
Still, I'm super happy to see it getting such a massive boost to its usefulness.
Especially on Deimos.
That place is hellish & anything to make it less sucky is okay by me; the solution being one of my og fav elements is icing on the cake.❤
Blast was terrible against any type of armor. Now with health types gone, it works against everything.
Blast is really cool now, indeed :D Enjoy!
@chainsawplayin Well, that & its ability to actually do meaningful damage has been boosted into the stratosphere, now that the blasts apply to stacks and deaths in a respectable range.
I'm gonna enjoy using this on those damn splitters & centipedes on Deimos.
Now if only it was useful in Eidolon hunts.😅
I love your videos
Thank you so much
That IS a helpful vídeo.👏
Hey blacky!! Nice vid. Could you make a guide about wich element is the best for some kuva weapons like kuva nukor? Plss
impact should do ramp up damage
the more stat procs the more damage impact does.
thats a very simple rework that makes it a good damage type.
-Mom, can we have viral?
-No, we have viral at home
Viral at home:
What Syandana is Protea using around 18:30?
Is there also a timer on the corrosive armor reduction, or does it stay reduced indefinitely?
There is a timer on corrosive status procs, though the Hydroid warframe with his plunder ability can make it permanent
very helpful / knowledge is power - literally
Bro the game drops me the most obscure mods like Amars Anguish but won’t give me Condition Overload and pistol status chance which I actually need lmao
So early here bro it is like only 0:00am here 🥲
India? o.O
@@MHBlacky_ENG no VietNam :)
you can also just run viral + hunters munitions for everything and itll work just as good if not better
14:10 universality great in specific situations doesn't make any sense
Eyyy that Raiden Ei in the introoo
Would like to see a showdown between her and Excalibur.... Excalibur would not enjoy this :P
Excellent.
The only thing I am confused about is slash damage vs status effect. Does the status only bypass armor or the instant damage from the shot aswell. My guess would be that only the status bypasses armor because it would be way too strong if the dmg would bypass armor
nowdays it doesn't really matter as slash doesn't have a negative bonus, but slash damage itself didn't do much damage to armor, but its status effect "Bleed" bypasses armor
You forgot Nukor unique status effect "Microwave" =)
I also heard that Limbo's 2nd is considered as a status effect. Surprising, wonder how it'll work with mecha set.
whats your chakkur build, it does so much aoe
Maiby with primed firestorm
Check out his assault rifle video he posted 3 months ago, he talks about kuva chakkurr there around the 6min mark
This 😉
Could we get a run down on collecting and building archwing weapons?
I havent even played the game since garuda came out
Been a while, indeed xD
Fortuna burnout is real also took a 3 year break and came back last year these days I play in small doses
Hopefully Blacky or another helpful Tenno sees my comment and can answer my question.
Which of these things are most impactful in a loadout?
By loadout I mean the whole spiel: Warframe, Primary Weapon, Secondary Weapon, Meele, Companion, Operator.
What should my priority for acquiring those be?
Which of these things will help me get the next significant boost in damage and survivability?
Bro focus on ur quests for now focus on primes and so on later, get inaros and do the sacrifice for the umbra mods, slap hem on inaros try and get an adaptation from trade chat for like 15-20 P and slap it on boom u won't die in two hits do all ur quests and gather mods like blind rage transient fortitude and so on before you try and get a fully loaded archon shard saryn prime nuking steel path XD
@@MegaJo123456789 Just answer the question and not tell the person how to play the game lol
That's a tricky question to answer and i am just someone who have 1k hours so i will try my best, my goto for telling beginners is
"Grab Rhino, Get Hek and Xoris, then start building for endgame" But that's not the answer you are looking for.
First of all priority wise Frames>Weaps(Yes all 3)>Companion>Operator(i assume you are talking about amp and focus school)
Their relationship feel like stacking deck of card to make a pyramid without the other it will fall apart, but here is the logic for my placements
Good frames with bad weapon will get you overrun since you can't kill but you can compensate with some tanky frames like Revenant or Rhino to tank but eventually you will still get overrun.
while "bad frames" with good weapon can go through some part of the game, their weakness will be apparent since you will start to struggle since your frames ability doesn't support you. I don't believe there is bad Frames for say more like too niche to be used or you use it in the wrong mission like Revenant might be immortal but those defense objective aren't or Nyx ability might be cool as hell then you realize isn't as useful in like 80% of the situation XD
companion are impactful in what they do for example Carrier for those weapons that have ammo issue, Panzer Vulpa for those Viral, or Smeeta for those random buff. But as long as you have Vacuum/Fetch you can sideline them for a bit and focus on the other stuff first.
Operator is a weird ones since you can just slap Zenurik for like 80% of the content and call it day. Then you have Madurai for Cascade and Eido. Amp and Operator Arcane will be more impactful when you finally reach Zariman to kill thraxes and void angels, while the amps you got from the questlines (Sirocco, not Mote) is decent enough it doesn't hold up to what you can make and WILL falloff at higher lvl.
This is just my opinion tho, also i am talking about casual/new players not the Shield Gate lvl cap master that can literally go in mission with anything and it will work somehow. Still this is an opinion and feel free to question me about this.
Cold is underrated

Whooooop :D
Absolutely fantastic video
Then there's also true damage
Edit: he does mention this. Wrote the comment too soon
Which I have mentioned 😉
@MHBlacky_ENG yeah ur right. You do mention it. Spoke too soon.
Wow wow wow im a reterning player and o my god, DE cooked, you cooked, and im loving it all, instant subscriber, Iflynn held my hand for the past 10 years and now im excited to see more ahh!

Welcome to the game ❤️
Happy I could help 😉
So i'm a brand new player and I was wondering what frame is the best for melee combat
Volt. Then wisp imo.. you can use many melees without attack speed mods. Late game you get shards and can add crit. Still those two hit hard.
if you want exalted melee (so melee weapons as a ability) use excalibur or baruuk
if you just want regular melee weapons then use frames like wisp or rhino for buffs
also kullervo is good as he gives your weapons alot of crit with his abilitys
Melee in warframe equals Kullervo
@@vellent2424correct answer
as a brand new player, rhino. the health and overshield is great. next up, kullervo.
Is Radiation still used in the index after the Status rework, or are their other options for elements?
I would assume Magnetic is the new option because magnetic has a bonus against all corpus now, including health and robotics. If your weapon has magnetic innately like a Kuva weapon you could add viral for self explanatory reasons
Fire
The vid or your favourite element? :P

Is Blast or Gas stronger against grouped up enemies? Does the answer change in different scenarios?
Id say blast is better in general but in a niche case where you use rakta dark dagger to survive which was shown in MHblacky's volt/saryn build then gas is better
Blast and Gas are optimal in almost the exact same circumstances, so it's hard to answer that question.
My current take on it is that Blast is easier to use, but Gas can be stronger in the most optimal scenario.
Said scenario being grouped up, armor striped enemies, in a narrow corridor, and procing the status effect from head shots.
Mostly because in that scenario, Blast will kill everyone, and you will need to wait for them spawn and be in a good spot to continue killing them, but Gas clouds will just clean the corridor until their time runs out, and only them do you need to group and proc it again, so there is less maintenance of grouping for at least a couple seconds after every culling.
Hmmm... I'd say if the enemy has a weakness to either then of course pick that. Beyond that, for Blast you need to keep shooting to get the chain reaction, Gas creates the cloud and then you can stop and wait for a couple of seconds. Whatever fits your build best 😉
@@MHBlacky_ENG thank you!
@@abysswalker7712 thank you!
Does viral also go through shields, or is that only raw toxin?
onlymtoxin goes to shield, thats why peaolo always suggest viral + slash/toxin
Viral doesn’t go through shield it only increases the damage you do to something, which is why people use slash and viral since slash goes thru shields and stuff
