Fun fact; dispenser is now an S tier subsume for her assimilate build. Not only does it give infinite energy sustain for absorb but it also returns your ability to sprint AND crouch while it's active, because reasons. Combine this with the fact that she can now jump and you can bullet jump around. Add enough sprint speed and you can run at a normal pace. So yeah, basically, use dispenser, become Thanos.
@@T8-TR Don't grind Protea, just grind relics to sell stuff for platinum and then buy Protea. That's how I got the base form of Equinox and Trinity as well. It's a lot more enjoyable than the intended farms for those frames.
One important thing to note with her 4 augment, is that your speed penalty goes away if you steal overguard from enemies, but your 4 doesn't protect that overguard, so it *can* be taken away by damage.
Maybe worth considering: I’ve found some success on running two Tau Forged red shards for strength, so her builds can hit that 100% strip on her second ability with no mod slots used on strength. I used two tau yellows for parkour as well, and one more for casting speed which helps for spamming her third ability. Really enjoy her rework, I agree she’s not gamebreaking but she feels fun to play now, solid choice for newer players for the easy survivability
Of note, I think Nyx is going to be so much better at Void Cascade now since they removed that 8 energy per 1000 damage taken bs. Some frames might objectively be "better" at it, but as long as you have decent weapons, being able to just not die and having a really easy to use armor strip is just so comfortable. My personal go-to for it now.
Void cascade is where she shines the most in my opinion also, in my group if we are doing cascade SP, I’m being Nyx and a sporelacer AOE kitgun along with dispensary subsumed over my 1. No questions asked. lol 🎉
First time seeing this aura, but I also noticed the new summon arcane does *not* work with Nyx, which is annoying, because it sounds like it was *tailor made* for her, given the timing of her rework, dammit...
I liked the quick rundown of her abilities at the start - usually people look at a build for a frame they either haven't played in a while or are new to, so this is very useful, especially with the way things are - or rather aren't - explained in Warframe. I had no idea about effect her radiation stacks have on her 1 for example ^^
You can use dispensary and gain full movement in her 4. Also she is insane at archon defense missions as you can just hug the defense target and they will never go down (super useful if your clan isn’t on and you have to go public matchmaking) also she is completely insane at void cascade and if you combine that with the AOE kitgun, you can’t be knocked down, also operator can void sling and jump back into assimilate if you don’t have dispensary subsumed. I main Nyx. Never stopped loving her since way back in the day, good to see a spotlight on her again.
Its a real shame that instead of a propper rework to FINALLY make her a "mind controll" minion frame. They just slapped BIG CRIT on her and called it a day.
I think balancing a real minion frame is a massive pain in the ass. There is a reeeeeeally narrow middle ground where minions are worthwhile but not so strong as to basically be an AFK build, and not so weak as to be a default subsume.
@@chriskieta8725 I completely disagree. In Warframe, where you have point and click map anihilation weapons. If you remove the players agency to direct the damage - you have 10x the damage that your ads do. But then again - this is why THOUSANDS of rework sugestions on the forums, mine included, all mentioned some form of controlling your ads.
Couple of things you forgot to mention in the video about her 4: - You also get a % damage buff from all the absorbed damage when you release your 4, at a moddable duration.(It has a cap based on powerstrength I think?) - Once your 4 ends you get an additional invulnerability timer of maximum 6 seconds.(also based on damage absorbed I believe, but could be how long you kept the ability up too)
Dude on steel path hex bounties i just had tons of overgaurd & felt no need to use assimilate. I was status immune & had amazing damage thanks to pasive & 4 buff. Shes a different frame dude, so strong. & relatively effortlessly. I couldn't be happier. She was already my 5th most played. Now i see her being 3rd or 2nd most.
Personally that's how I see her. Assimilate makes her too slow on normal missions (exterminate/capture) even with 2 tau parkour so the stolen stats from her 2 are more than enough, but missions where enemies scale hard and fast (SP Cascade) make great use of being nigh invincible with assimilate.
With the new armor and shield steal on her 2, you can totally drop assimilate for...oh idk, nourish? No need for efficiency or flow and it also buffs the guy you mind control, which is nice! Been doing great on steel path with this build, tho it's less flashy for sure
Hey Brozime, could you maybe do a video about the weirder, less obvious mechanics and such that are good to know? I'm an MR30 with like 1200 hours, so I'm basically a noob in Warframe time, and I don't really understand or even know of certain, more niche mechanics. The "attenuation DR" you mentioned, for example. I don't really know what it does or for which enemies this is in effect. Things like that, explained in detail, not just in passing, in a dedicated video would be fantastic to watch and go back to every now and then.
There's a long ass wiki page for it, but damage attentuation basically takes your fire rate and damage, puts ot through a formula, and reduces the damage you do such that you can't kill the enemy too fast. Generally higher fire rate weapons are better vs attenuated enemies, also faction mod layer damage bonuses are not reduced. Basically newer special boss enemies are given attenuation, such as the fragmented ones or the oni from the koumei mission.
I personally think using her 4 all the time is overkill. Her 2 and 3 keep her pretty safe particularly if you use the augment for her 2. This isnt even considering the armor, shields and overguard you get. Her 4 is better suited to ohshit moments and big boss fights.
Worth testing- I believe the patch notes or ability description or something I'd read mentions that your MC target is inclined to attack enemies you're aiming at. Maybe test that? I'm wondering if he'd have dropped his current target and attacked Torment if you aimed at him for a sec or two. At work so I can't rest this ATM.
With the changes with enemy armor scaling cap...but with enemy damage scaling indefinitely, 'friendly fire' is not of the board. And now that she has rad procs in caos, increasing friendly fire damage, it becomes even better. She has armor/overguard strip on her kit already...I'm curious about subsumed equinox rage to haste mobs AND debuffing them even more with damage vulnerability.
Or don't replace any because she's handling steel path like it's nothing with her base kit. Great damage through passive & 4 buff, overgaurd so status immune & crowd control is useful too.
@@TifffanyTaylor her lowered mobility makes her much less fun to play imo. I'd rather focus on the other aspects of her kit and use a synergistic power like Rage
@StarfieldDisarray Eximus are constantly spawning at higher levels so you'll always have access to overguard or you could just do a rolling guard shield gating build. Or just a separate build where you use her 4 if it's that big of an issue
2:18 - AznvasionPlays mentioned Parkour shards do not change her moving speed at all. Who is right between you two? Also, if you want to make Eleanor move faster, you can equip a mod called "Amalgam Serration" on her Primary which increases your natural speed, and ALSO equip Tenet Grigori for a melee. The Grigori has a passive which allows you to switch-teleport to your target from afar, meaning you can play Ash and teleport around if you don't feel like running.
I'd trust Brozime on this. He deep dives this game like not tomorrow. Parkour Shards increase you Parkour Velocity so Rolling Speed + Distance and Jumping Distance are increased. Amalgam Serration only increases Sprint Speed, you should always be sprinting but sometimes game turns it off.
Went into the Sim to test a no parkour mod vs parkour mod build. It does indeed affect your rolling during 4. So its more of a question if its worth the mod/shard space for people
Proven & easily tested fact that +parkour velocity gives you massive rolling distance. Same reason why a bunch of people use them with Mesa's waltz, bc moving is a pain and can't be arsed to recast her 4.
In addition to summoners wrath, arcane camisado is also not working with mind control targets. Abilities that take dnemies in general like enthrall and avcuse just arent working
I hate having to turn off abilities, so I tend to dash around as the operator if I need to climb a building. That's right, Transference doesn't interrupt Absorb.
Her powers have screen effects that are doing that because of my dark energy color so it’s either can’t see through absorb or the darkened look unfortunately
Huh? I thought the summoner aura was made *for* Nyx, given that it came out with her rework and her intended playstyle. And you're telling me it doesn't even work on Nyx? Bruh.
Not much has changed compared to the old build. Just slap on good ol' Praedos for that extra parkour velocity. Your secondary can melt anything with her new passive. I have been liking the Atomos incarnon (beam weapon, kind of aoe). For your main, anything goes. I prefer the Braton incarnon for fun, since her 4 still counts as a channeled ability, which will buff its damage considerably. Walk around invulnerable and kill stuff, basically.
Soon or later the small reworks ain’t gonna be enough even tho all these years they managed but brah banshee use to be super op l, Valkyr could use love, limbo, Atlus is still booty I mean yeesh
MC isn't worth it on any current tileset, AI just isn't there - constantly getting stuck and looking into walls. Works great in theory, terrible in practice. Assimilate is hella annoying and not fun at all. Don't recommend, she doesn't need it. All she really needs: 1) slap on Catalyzing Shields and Pacifying Bolts 2) add some strength (regular intensify is enough) - you want regain from bolts to be over 93 and you're good 3) bring a good crit weapon and go wild Everything else is gravy, though I personally run a high power, high duration build with Blessing and double Umbral mods (vit+int) for 2k health+2.5k armor just for fun.
I still think her 4 is garbage and doesnt fit the game anymore. My prefered 4 for her would be something like cyberpunks suicide hack in an area. Buff every enemy in a radius and everyone just offs themselves. Not instakill, just buff damage like mindcontrol for effected enemies and bam.
I hit 10,000%+ damage on the Mc minion and he blew up an eximís in a second . Unfortunately he then started running into a wall. Nyx experience
You literally melted their brain to become a roided out berzerker! Of course there would be some.. side effects.

Zime is being respectful to Aoi working on bikes by just getting off of it instead of exploding it.
small fun tech: if you use dispensary during assimilate you regain full move speed and are able to slide, sprint and bullet jump
Good tip
I feel like this is forbidden black magic DE is coming to exorcise as we speak.

First time seeing this aura, but I also noticed the new summon arcane does *not* work with Nyx, which is annoying, because it sounds like it was *tailor made* for her, given the timing of her rework, dammit...
Could be a bug, hopefully it does work with it
That arcane is doo-doo anyway since it only gives the Strength for *next cast*.
@@StarfieldDisarray Bro that's still per damage by a minion it might as well not be a downside unless your mind control target goes dummy stuoid

Pistol acuity has been very good for scaling up mind controlled enemies with the dual tox. Provided you can easily weak point the enemy.

Dark energy cuz the abilities can be extreme visual clutter
