@Elias-gs7wo Layzar the Troll and several other channels that I've looked into, they so often either have no charisma and terrible build explanations or are shock mote trolls or it's obvious thay don't actually play anymore and are just copying builds from pub chat
this is hands down the best video about xaku on youtube, you properly shown their 3rd ability that's normally either subsumed for "pillage" or else, or just used as armor strip only
For the speedrun build, I really do recommend going infested mobility or molt. I've used it on several frames especially when I got tired of using Volt, Wukong, Titania, Gauss. Good frames for speedrunning low level fissure runs would be something like Mirage Prism Guard, Gyre, Xaku, Protea Temporal Artillery, all with Infested Mobility to catch up with any character. Combine it with Praedos, and you are probably just as fast as Gauss
Dude found this video from suggestions, NEVER BEEN HAPPIER TO CLICK, so good guide and explanations especially on different helminth possibilities, crazy well done work, good job!
as an avid Xata's whisper enjoyer, Xata's whisper like the other damage buffing helminth (stares at you CO-like abomination Eclipse), hide so much interaction and mechanics. Beside like mentioned double dip headshot & faction damage -faction mods triple dips on blast proc+xata -elemental damage mod like Elementalist double dips on xata -it counts as weapon "primary fire" damage (inflicted by which weapon) as status proc less & critless damage. -So its can trigger Laetum Overwhelming Attrition buff even when Laetum build to >100% crit chance. -Trumna alt fire also can recharge by itself when enemies killed by Xata's additional damage instance -Scourge alt fire takes priority when both xata and scourge bubble overlaps -etc, that's what i can remember now xD. Great video very informative
This is the best guide ever, form a quality standpoint. The nostalgic music paired with your great audio quality and calm way of speaking made me drift a way cause I was so chilled I had to rewatch it
And still watchi.g build videos, I love it. (Me who had 10 forma and 1 umbra put into normal xaku who I fed to my helminth last week. Time to rebuild 😅.
as a xaku enjoyer i really love this video.I start playiing warframe again because of this video.Thanks a lot my man for the all the information and knowledge.you and kyaii is my go to cc for warframe from now on(props to lgv for amazing video too).I just love the warframe community so much.
Xaku has been one of my favorite frames to play since i started playing this game. Love how you go into so much detail, very nice video. Definitely gonna try that decoy build, looks insane.
Tempest Barrage is so underrated man. Amazing viral proccing ability without relying on Nourish or companions, and that green shard boosting ability damage is smth I never thought of for Xaku before!
I really loved null star with the neutron star augment and an Archon vitality on Xaku too (and building for the 2 with perma invis). So many amazing options!
As an experienced player who does endgame content it’s nice to see there are creators who know the important details. Tired of all those big creators on yt doing at best mediocre builds with so many small or bigger “mistakes”. Sadly they have the biggest audience. Good job, subbed and will watch ur other vids!
That was absolutely amazing! Personnaly I replaced augur reach with rolling guard for more confort (I use 2 augur mods on my secondary so I can still regen full shield by casting 4 once) This damage decoy tech is cool :D
P really appreciate the effort of explaining with details and i have to also mention the quality of the video and the montage, it really shows how much hard work was put into making such an easy to understand informative video. Keep up the wonderful work, stay awesome and have a Prime Day.🎉🎉
The vampiric grasp works well with a rage build + archon intensify and relentless lost makes it so you can invest in stuff like efficiency or survivability keeping at 100 and getting full armor strip on the fourth cast of your third. If you pair all that together you spread abilities and can cast the 4 really often to constantly gain energy. The only thing I would say is that it can be hard to start up lol but I like that it forces you to play aggressive.
I don't need any survivability apart from Prime Sure Footed, so I'm no using Shade/Huras, I use Panzer instead. Quick tip for Panzer, if you mod it's claws for Electricity dmg, it will proc Archon Stretch with it's Viral Quills, and yes, I'm well aware that it makes no sense.
@@saladgaming4339 yes, Diriga and Hound proc it too, but they are electric abilities so they are kinda obvious. Panzer is not, and this video mentioned Panzer, Xaku usually mods for range and likes the viral procs from Panzer, that's why I mentioned this additional synergy between them.
We really need a hold to recast functionality for Grasp of Lohk, just like we can hold Vast Untime and cancel it. 😢😢 Not only for when mobs scale up to higher levels but for Molt Augmented "x250 refresh", since it scales up with ability strength too.
Also would be nice if DE could implement something like "Choose a default skill you start mission with", for those flip skills that has 2 or more skills in it. For example now #3 u always start with Accuse. Kinda wish you could change it to Gaze.
thank you so much, even with the beginner build, it works great, working my way up with this frame. You forgot just one thing and i have no ideas what to do : how do you mod the shade weapon please ? (and also, wich school do you use ?)
I really appreciate the content liked and subscribed. BTW have you experience grasp of lohk not targeting thrax's while invis with shade? it's been happening a lot and id have to in and out of my operator
@@KeesieOilcorner I happened to find your video while i started my xaku prime build and was able to get to void cascade level cap solo without shooting my primary or secondary once the whole game. Aside from my operator only the grasp oh lokh did damage XD thanks! edit. but once shade goes down things get scary lol
Great video. As funny as Viral Tempest is, you can achieve a similar, if not better effect, with an Epitaph without spending energy. Yes this does mean you have to sacrifice Grimoire's energy regen, but to be honest i don't think Molt Efficiency is as good as slotting Energize. Molt Efficiency's power stat value is just too low at 36%. Compare that to Augmented which has the value of 4 tao strength shards, Molt Efficiency is only slightly more valuable than 2 tao duration shards, and is LESS valuable than 4 regular duration shards. You could even still go the corrosive ability damage shards route by running Nourish as your subsume instead and modding the Epitaph for corrosive. Nourish's energy multiplier would even allow you to slot Molt Efficiency back on again instead of energize. For my build i instead run Pillage over his 3 since i prefer a mobile armor stripping ability instead of needing to hunker down in one spot, and Xata's is still a helpful weapon buffer for whenever i occasionally pull out my own weapon e.g. to target a Thrax. The status cleanse is also very helpful for Xaku as getting hit by a heat proc can be very annoying on a frame that is otherwise dodging most of incoming damage. Though i will say, for fissure missions, being able to snapshot both Gaze and Grasp of Lohk with double strength and range is pretty insane.
Good points, efficiency and augmented need to be swapped around in your argumentation. Main point that I wanted to get both corro and viral from an ability is because it keeps invis from huras or shade for mega easy survivability on levelcap :)
@@KeesieOilcorner true, i didn't consider the factor of tempest barrage not breaking stealth at all ngl. I suppose because my main build focuses more on shield gating and dodge chance than invis. I'll definitely make a config for it. You've earned a sub
Great video! Quick question: I'm running the tempest barrage build, and it's been great, even without green Archon shards. However, I keep getting killed on netracells, even when I'm invisible. Any recommendations? I like the comfort of Xaku, so the constant button pressing of shield gating isn't my thing. Thanks!
Are you getting killed by enemies or the netracell debuffs? The latter can be easily countered by arcanes that heal you (e.g. when casting abilities). Against enemies, invisibility only really prevents gun fire, you still have to dodge out of ground AoE, which some murmur enemies have (e.g. they explode after you killed them). Easiest solution is keeping a safe distance while slowing with your 4. edit: Personally I run Harrow's 1 as helminth which CCs large groups of enemies while giving you overshields. Slightly less dps but very relaxing to play
So i didn't want to leave this info to my self but the grasp of loke skill I don't know if im spelling that right but the guns on that skill shoot through windows when you have line of sight and i think that is kinda funny
Amazing video! I really want to use Xaku prime but i struggle hugely with survivability, is there a way to make all warframe really good at surviving? Perfect video though, im subscribing right now!
you can try shield gating by subsuming Condemn + use arcane aegis, Condemn to CC enemies and regenerate shield, and consistently keep the shield up to proc Arcane Aegis. When Arcane Aegis procs you'll become invincible to attacks (except for status effects that pass through shields) as your shield will regenerate as soon as it depletes which is very strong cuz of shield gating. Alternatively you can subsume Ivara's Quivers, invisibility is one of the best way to survive as enemies will not attack you if they can't see you. Down side of this is that you can't really move around a lot so you can just stay in 1 spot. Another way to go become invisible is by using Kubrow or Shade Prime. They have the ability to make you invisible when enemies are nearby, however you cannot attack enemies with any weapon other wise the invis will break and it'll go into a 8s cooldown. Attacking with abilities (except exalted weapons) will not break the invisibility. So for Xaku this works welll, but you're essentially just walking around and attack using her 2. Lastly, bring Dante into the mission as a specter. Dante specter will consistently cast his 2nd and light verse 4th to generate overguard when he is under attack. You will also gain overguard from it while within his range so it'll help you survive greatly. No subsume needed, no extra mod needed, no restrictions. All you need is to get Dante, level him up, do some rescue mission to get some specter blueprint. Don't even need to build him cuz your mods doesn't apply to specters. This is my go to way to survive for any frame that isn't good at surviving.
Genuinely shockingly high effort and well put together video! I was wondering, does the Viral Tempest build have any issues with survivability near level cap without Huras or Shade? The slow mixed with the dodge chance from Vast Untime seems relatively reliable but it might still be too risky. I mainly ask as id prefer to run panzer for Viral Quills and all the other panzer mods and peace of mind. (Also im obsessed with staring at Xaku during missions and would rather not be cloaked if realistically possible haha) Your content is amazing, im looking forward to your next videos!
@@melonboi2522 thanks! Should be okay if you manage to fit in some kind of shield gating or maybe rolling guard. Everything will die from the guns almost straight away and the cc from barrage should be enough
I've been playing with Xaku recently and using a bunch of these builds. (Currently subsuming hydroid rn) Just rlly curious on how to have Grasp of Lohk grab 25+ guns. The wiki says 16 is max and that seems to be the case but in this video there are multipl times when I see you running around with like 30+, and I have also had that happen, but idk how I actually got it to work/proc
I swapped out Xata's, you could consider swapping out The Lost if you want to keep Xata's for your regular weapons, but towards levelcap your Grasp Of Lohk will be pretty much killing everything almost immediately. :)
How is corrosive applied to benefit from the green shards on the tempest build I either wasn’t paying attention or am more sleep deprived than I thought
wouldn't it be worth to sacrifice one of the increased damage shards for a +stacks of corrosive shard? Or does the math work out to it not being better?
You can consider it ifyou want to keep Xata's otherwise there's gaze + armor changes mean that full strip isn't really needed on Xaku anymore and 10 corro stacks will be generally fine :)
Yess, check out my vid on how to make warframe look like dogshit. Then make sure to take the beginning graphics settings, as those are optimal for visual clarity, quality and performance. ;)
Weapon on the shade won't matter super much you can either go vulcax so you can easily hit the requirement for tenacious bond or you can go verglas with a ton of status chance for extra damage :)
@@ezthicc4296 yes always try to build as much range as possible :) more guns = more damage. Make sure to recoup some strength you lose from overextended with arcanes/shards or other mods :)
@@KeesieOilcorner okay okay, i replaced their xata's whisper with roar for more damage with their 2. Then i went for a max range setup and have like 230% strength. However I didn't use a flow mod so i added 2 tau blue for energy. Then go invis with shade/huras kubrow. Might remove an augur secret tho for equilibrium and, do you think Xaku needs the relentless lost augment? Or not?
i would never use my xaku for SP. one of the reasons i gave up is the amount of high level stuff you need to do high level things :( shards, arcanes, etc.
hey, i am a small warframe beginner (only 2000h of playtime) with a big question. i am seeing xaku oneshotting lvl 1200 with the second ability here and my xaku struggles to kill lvl 150 heavy gunners with a similar setup. only thing i didnt do was green shards. is that such a big deal or does xaku just scale insanely well with higher levels to the point that he can kill higher levels easier than lower levels? i am happy for anyone who is willing to help me.
You're right on track. The scaling ramps up towards higher levels making it easier to kill high levels compared to low levels, which is what I tried to fix with the green shards and viral tempest. At lvlcap the difference becomes smaller :)
@@KeesieOilcorner one more thing, would you say it makes sense to put one of the tauforged green shards on more corrosive stacks for the extra armor strip? because of armor scaling better the more you reduce it (that was at least my thought process)
@@schneesammler3036Depends on what you subsume over. If you keep Gaze you don't really need shards for armor strip but if you want to keep Xata' Whisper it might be better.
Is normal Xaku much worse then Prime? I mean the farming for Xaku prime is just painfully terrible... Been doing missions for like 10 hours still not a single Prime blueprint...
@@KeesieOilcorner What do you think is it worth it to farm him If I have normal? Or just mainly cosmetics? Im pretty new to the game thats why Im asking..

Nice video, btw, which skill of Xaku we need to change when we subsume tempest barrage.
I swapped out Xata's, you could consider swapping out The Lost if you want to keep Xata's for your regular weapons, but towards levelcap your Grasp Of Lohk will be pretty much killing everything almost immediately. :)
what is the survivability method when not using huras or shade? do we shield gate with vast untime?
@@bobjoe2604 yes
How is corrosive applied to benefit from the green shards on the tempest build I either wasn’t paying attention or am more sleep deprived than I thought
@@benaiahheise1325 barrage applies corrosive
I never know how to use decoys effectivly till now
Skill issue
Can you explain why people use +15 ability damage on corrosive vs why not just getting +15 ability strength thanks
@@edddzw7430 it's a seperate multiplier, which scales damage higher than investing into a single one. (10x(1+2)x(1+0.6)=48 is more than 10×(1+2.6)=36)
I can bring maximum 16 stolen guns. How did you get 33 stolen guns?

Void buff when opening relics that doubles range
Best build in the video for lvl cap is tempest barrage ?
@@vesmoper i'd say so yes, but any will work
wouldn't it be worth to sacrifice one of the increased damage shards for a +stacks of corrosive shard? Or does the math work out to it not being better?
You can consider it ifyou want to keep Xata's otherwise there's gaze + armor changes mean that full strip isn't really needed on Xaku anymore and 10 corro stacks will be generally fine :)
Do you have a video on your graphics settings?
Yess, check out my vid on how to make warframe look like dogshit. Then make sure to take the beginning graphics settings, as those are optimal for visual clarity, quality and performance. ;)
Haven’t finished the video but does anyone know is grasp of Lohk triggers arcane victory/headshots?
@@cypher_black9852 good question I'll test
In the build with decoy do you use the same 4 tau green shards and one tau yellow shard ?
@@goncalobarros9822 on the decoy build it's one yellow then 4 of your choice. I'd advise 4x duration :)
Thank you for replying to my comment. By the way, what weapon do you use in Shade? What if you could say which build would be wonderful?
Weapon on the shade won't matter super much you can either go vulcax so you can easily hit the requirement for tenacious bond or you can go verglas with a ton of status chance for extra damage :)
We don't build exactly the same but close. otherwise, great fukin video my dude! ❤
Skill issue.
Will the build for the tempest barrage will work fine if those green shards do not exist ?
@@HinoD13thyou'll miss a x1.6 multiplier, but it should still be ok in most cases :)
Can the trmoest barrage buikd do level cap even without the shards?
Yes
Should i go with a lot of range? Does the number of guns of grasp of lohk matter?
@@ezthicc4296 yes always try to build as much range as possible :) more guns = more damage. Make sure to recoup some strength you lose from overextended with arcanes/shards or other mods :)
@@KeesieOilcorner okay okay, i replaced their xata's whisper with roar for more damage with their 2. Then i went for a max range setup and have like 230% strength. However I didn't use a flow mod so i added 2 tau blue for energy. Then go invis with shade/huras kubrow.
Might remove an augur secret tho for equilibrium and, do you think Xaku needs the relentless lost augment? Or not?
@@ezthicc4296 Relentless lost is not needed if you have 230% strength :)
i would never use my xaku for SP. one of the reasons i gave up is the amount of high level stuff you need to do high level things :( shards, arcanes, etc.
why corrosive shards? where does xaku do corrosive dmg?
@@lux452 tempest barrage
@KeesieOilcorner so that gives viral and corrosive?
@@lux452 yep!
Really confused on how you added the viral tempest to the build
hey, i am a small warframe beginner (only 2000h of playtime) with a big question. i am seeing xaku oneshotting lvl 1200 with the second ability here and my xaku struggles to kill lvl 150 heavy gunners with a similar setup. only thing i didnt do was green shards. is that such a big deal or does xaku just scale insanely well with higher levels to the point that he can kill higher levels easier than lower levels? i am happy for anyone who is willing to help me.
You're right on track. The scaling ramps up towards higher levels making it easier to kill high levels compared to low levels, which is what I tried to fix with the green shards and viral tempest. At lvlcap the difference becomes smaller :)
@@KeesieOilcorner okay thanks a lot
@@KeesieOilcorner one more thing, would you say it makes sense to put one of the tauforged green shards on more corrosive stacks for the extra armor strip? because of armor scaling better the more you reduce it (that was at least my thought process)
@@schneesammler3036Depends on what you subsume over. If you keep Gaze you don't really need shards for armor strip but if you want to keep Xata' Whisper it might be better.
That Syndana looks sick, what's it called?
@@ogod5985it's from the styanax deluxe skin :)
Thanks a lot! (Also it was an excellent video)
am having problems keeping the last build alive any suggestions ?
@@supremesenpai8932 maybe lose stretch for catalyzing shields to shieldgate
What price the corrosive shards on the build
Can't trade for the shards sadly
@ I meant procs auto correct fucker me lol I put the same shards as u but idk what procs them should I change to red shards or what
what companion weapon should i pick?
64.5 k plat 👀👀geezzzz
Operator fashion?
How do you have different aura polarities on different configs?
@@sanyanyugger9836 aura forma :)
are the 4 shards required ? the corrosive dmg shards
@@supremesenpai8932 not neccesarily, just adds a nice bit of extra damage
how do u get invisible with xaku prime?
how u get that overguard fast !
Skill issue
@ i mean what is he using to get overguard
@bryansakamoto6859 maybe Secondary Fortifier
Dantes specter
@ that makes sense
Don’t you dare call my boy decoy memey :(
@@GD00000 his powers must remain among the elite so I tried to hide it by calling it a meme 😉🤫
@@KeesieOilcornerDon’t worry, there are elite builds that you didn’t even mention :P
Is normal Xaku much worse then Prime? I mean the farming for Xaku prime is just painfully terrible...
Been doing missions for like 10 hours still not a single Prime blueprint...
Normal xaku is also grindy af
@KeesieOilcorner
Yeah thats why I bought him...xD
@@KeesieOilcorner
What do you think is it worth it to farm him If I have normal?
Or just mainly cosmetics?
Im pretty new to the game thats why Im asking..
Mainly cosmetics, you'll most likely get him at some point so better to focus on quests or resources early game
@@KeesieOilcorner
Thanks for the help!
how do you have overshield?
i mean overguard
Secondary fortifier and/or dante specter
Guys how do i add Viral tempest on Xaku it says Hydroid
@@Melvin-f7u you need to subsume tempest barrage on with the helminth system :)
