I bet you can't do a 30min steelpath survival with only a stug as a weapon. You can't use any other methods of killing enemies. You can mod your stug and frame however you want
I got to mr 17 in 70days and stopped this game is too much after u get main questline stuff done zarimon and everything for arbitrations by the time i got them i was burnt out
@@elevated9744Saran with toxic lash to help stug……..it has the potential to go up against demolists if you put in expedite suffering from helminth, if you want to do other mission to kill basic mobs, you can try marked for death for some aoe.
@@bemusedlist924270 days? Damn you zoomed through the game! And you burnout is much too understandable…..
Did u seriously have to sell out to raid
Ivara was always my comfort frame
There was just something nice and calming about setting up a web of wires and watching enemies die while listening to music
Which weapon do you use with her? I'm interested to try it
Any AoE Weapon.
@@drysniorany Silenced AoE weapon works, but glaive prime is pretty broken on her.
Same. That and I just find headshots satisfying to do. And she revels in it. So her formula is just a match made in heaven for me.
Having a lot of diversity in gameplay has always been a good point on Warframe. Being a power fantasy game, most content can be done with almost anything if you know how to use it and the tools you can use.
Bro honestly please make this a series!!!
With frames, weapons, specific build combinations that aren't "meta" and not a lot of people use.
Super fun way to play around with stuff and finding styles you enjoy the most!
This guy is the reason I grind other warframes. I don't really care about meta. I just wanna make every warframe steel path viable
Oberon is expensive yeah but when he works, he is so satisfying and massive dopamine hit with his 4👌
The fact that they finally fixed his augment ( I spoke to Pablo on Twitter about it several times ) and it now does quadratic damage is so refreshing.
I had to literally tell someone I don't care about what they think is fun (when talking about voidrig vs bonewidow, as I'm currently grinding for bonewidow) because they were just 100% focused on what's meta, effecient and that's what they find fun. The fun i derive from the game isn't always gonna be the same as yours, so if you see someone playing a frame you don't enjoy, uses a weapon with an alternative you think is better, or is just generally doing something unoptimally, leave them be. Of course if they're looking for what an optimal build is, or what the best tools for a specific job are, go ahead and let them know! Just PLEASE don't try to gatekeep fun in warframe, it's a game for everyone and people like different things.
So true. I am curious though, you mentioned grinding for bonewidow, and were discussing voidrig vs bonewidow. Which is your favorite? Cause for all one knows, you might've just been after mastery fodder for bonewidow, and prefer voidrig. Or they could've been saying voidrig is better, but you prefer bonewidow.
Bonewidow with the necramech skin looks cooler than any amount of damage the voidrig could do
Bonewidow? Why? Really asking. Not retorical. What it adds to the table over Voidrig?
@UmbraFulgur Ah yes, the type of person OP was talking about, sadly.
@@UmbraFulgur the meta-est meta in whole metaframe, looks. The shield fits so damn well with that skin, even the regular helmet looks awesome. Why deal thousands of damage if you don't look cool? Besides, necramechs are so niche that operators see more combat than them
Exact reason why Loki is still my 3rd most used frame only after my main and former main. Quick missions, rivens challenges, incarnon unlocking, fishing, mining etc, I wouldn't think about bringing anyone else other than him. His kit has certainly been showing its age for a good few years since DE started making more frames with multi-purpose abilities, but he still feels great to use.
This. Loki is till this day my most used WF (+/- 6 years of gaming) along with Soma prime as primary and Scoliac as melee (guess it's because of meta of the past) :D For a reasons u exactly described. "Just slap max duration possible and do those chores mind-set".
Would it be possible to see you do a reflection/retrospective on the characters added to the game via the community like Clem or John Prodman?
Quickly becoming one of my favorite Warframe channels. I especially appreciate the long form content.
Ivara is underated indeed!
From Endless survival to Archon 2-hit Hunts, not even mentionning Spy, she scales really well as long as you accept a more relaxed playstyle.
Broberon does work, for all intents and purposes, but I find doing SP missions with him rather painful.
He can do them, but more often than I would like, I find myself having to go in FFYL mode because an adaptation stack dropped, which isn't great for a tank.
I'd love to see some number tweaking on the fairy king. Maybe lessening the energy strain a bit or improving the damage on Hallowed Ground and Reckoning could do him some good.
Chroma works better than people give him credit (no pun intended) for, but I have to admit that he's very clunky to use.
He's definitely on my list of frames that could use a rework, if only to make it so that his kit doesn't remind me constantly of the old days of Warframe. Hydroid comes fist tho, which is fortunate since DE seems to have FINALLY decided to look into that.
I personnaly try to vary my frames and weapons often, but I do have clear favourites, including Ivara, Limbo and Vauban.
Based Limbo user 👌
Ngl my trio is zeph wisp and ash but it is fun playing with frames at random, especially because i see the fashion frame i spent an hour to make on each frame lol.
@@Few_dinner yeah, Fashionframe is important 👍
I barely see any Ash players (not talking about his invisibility) even tho he's the only true space cyborg ninja.
@@tapirdebain bladestorm with rakta dark dagger riven goes brrr, basically, quite fun
Frost still needs a rework, not more augments that are a mandatory install for functionality. The base frame need to be steel path viable, without augments. Biting Frost should be the passive, and the overguard should be the baseline functionality too. His augments are buffs, not augments. And since the base is lacking, you need those buffs to even survive or deal enough damage. By taking those mods, you are restricting your build because augments take up valueable modspace. DE always seems to forget that augments supposed to AUGMENT abilities, not just straight up buff them.
When that Terraria underground ice biome music hit 🥶🥶
I'm glad to see my boy Oberon get a bit of love and a bit of a rundown on him from you. Now the only thing left to do is a full video on him lol. Once again you put out another informative video with a bunch of insights offering a different prospective of frames mentioned.
I was actually quite worried because this vid had a really tight turnaround (Cos of the sponsor) I had planned to incorporate 5 frames here for a more full essay. But I'm glad people are finding value out of this shorter insight
Our boy's got sponsors! They grow up so fast. 🥲
Raid shadow legends
yes
To be fair, Raid Shadow Legends would even sponsor a dead horse if they thought it'd make them some money.
😢 yea
@@gamrage Oh, absolutely! It's not a qualitative assessment. It's just good to get some points on the board, ya know?
Ivara is awesome if you're doing anything but conventional "kill/defend thing" missions.
Dashwire can be great for fishing, as you can walk above the water. Sleep arrow is often a better tranq rifle. Prowl is great when you don't want to be harassed by enemies while doing other things.
Navigator can let you guide sleep arrows to targets flying away if you messed up a capture.
Built right she can oneshot archons too, tho a kuva hek is needed to do the actual shooting
..and that's not mentioning spy missions. With the augment, you can do any level spy mission effortlessly. I admit it's not the fastest, but it's almost guaranteed to work if you don't bump into a scanner drone
For the archon thing I've found that the Felarx does it better due to how dumb Xata's Whisper is with one of the evolution perks. High strength Ivara with subsume Xata's whisper and the Felarx makes archons a complete joke.
@@TheCoLDKanadian I didn't say Hek was the only option, it's just what I use
@@jackgamer6307 Fair enough, it works for both anyways.
The only con about Sleep Arrow from Ivara when compared to tranq rifle as a substitute is the fact that, if I remember correctly, it will count the animal as startled upon being claimed this way.
@@alruneblake Also it is not an indefinate stun, the naimal will wake up once sleep arrow has run down
I use Oberon for Archon Hunts, and he's actually a supreme frame for those if you build him correctly:
- Smite with Smite Infusion is a massive damage buff to you and your squad. Plus it's Radiation which is effective against the Archon's Alloy Armor.
- Hallowed Ground to prevent knockdowns, status, CC the adds the Archon spawns, and give us a pinch more armor with its Renewal synergy.
- Renewal to heal, yes, but also to LITERALLY PREVENT DEATH with Phoenix Renewal. Which is very useful in an one life no respawn mission. Did I mention it extends bleedout duration?
- Eclipse subsumed over Reckoning, with the Total Eclipse augment to extend the buff to our allies. We all know how good Eclipse is.
Pair this with some strength, Rolling Guard to prevent even more deaths and Brief Respite to keep your squad up and DPSing.
Yes, this build is a bit gimmicky due to the triple augments, but it works like a charm.
My guy, congrats on the sponsor. And also I love these retrospectives. I’m an old returning player and seeing the history of changes that I missed out on is amazing. Here’s hoping our tentacle pirate boy gets the rework he deserves and I see an upload of yours that gives him the redemption he needed.
Time for another masterpiece.
I mean, I don't have every frame. 3 are missing.
And my favorite frames are Baruuk, Ivara, Loki, Volt and Nidus.
Thanks for the video!
Thats the reason why 30% of my entire usage is on Valkyr and her Prime. She isnt as good anymore, but still decent. I just love her kit (With a subsume)
A thing I like to do is randomize a loadout, then go solo on a void fissure. It's a good way to reconnect with older frames you might have forgotten about.
My dude got a sponsor **Grabs PopCorn**
Nice one my dude, now I got to enjoy your content and your ads
Yeah, totally agree. It's all about time and dedication, but I think very few people have been playing long enough to have mastered every frame and keep them mastered through buffs, nerfs, meta changes, and other updates. I know I'm only good with a few frames (that aren't ez branded) and I'll never dismiss anyone for using a particular frame, not even Inaros.
I love warframe when i got them they werent popular like banshee nyx and Pre-rework Garuda, with even recently playing some Frost with using his 4, although my favorite warframe is mirage, this game offers you alot of things, and you can do so much nowadays compared to before especially with the helminth system.
Ivara has one other thing she's great at, she is the best conservation frame as her sleep arrows can do what the tranquilizers do but better
titania razorflies + citrine's 3rd combo
wisp's 4th scales its damage while aiming the same enemy
vex armor can buff effigy's damage
nidus can mulitply roar with parasitic link
gara can debuff enemies with 3 different vulnerabilities if you use a helminth vulnerability on her 3rd (2, 4 and helminth vulnerabilities, and vulnerabilities multiply with each other wich is strong AF)
theres just a ton of stuff the game doesn't outright tell you, its up to you to find out and have fun with EVERYTHING (because almost everthing can be enjoyed)
Ayyy shout out to my girl Ivara. She became my most played frame because of how many different tasks she can do herself. She can do Spy Missions easily, Archon Hunts easily, or high-level Survival runs. The fact that she can use Glaive or even Stropha on an Empowered Dashwire is great. You name it. Heck, you can even Navigate a Sleep Arrow to catch wildlife. She's like WF's resident Batman or something.
And also shout out to Oberon too. I don't use Chroma as much anymore tho.
Sadge ivara needs an augment to walk through a laser when a tophat and monke press 1 button
@@noahedenborg4221 Better than playing literal monke. It's just preference dude.
@@SenseofNoneYT yeah ik
this is how I know youre the best, you gave Ivara the love I and many others have always known she deserved, and then followed it up with doing the same for Oberon, I swear Im the only person I know who likes him but hes one of my favorites actually, which is wild because I usually am not a fan of the paladin archetype
Oberon is a classic frame. You are not the only one who likes him. I love Oberon and have several different builds for him. It's just that there are many frames and Oberon has been around for a while.
I got tired of Warframe again, but I still keep up with these videos anyway. You have a bit of that old energy the old YT crew had when things like Kuva Liches came out, and it's a hit of nostalgia.
Maybe in a year or so I'll come back and play again.
As seeing as I'm basically a Hydroid main I'm hoping the rework doesn't ruin him, if they get rid of his tidal surge or his undertow I'm going to be upset.
Give this man a Nobel peace prize for maining Hydroid.
Terraria ost
Very happy to hear the underground ice theme one of the best
10:56 looking at that sweet sweet hydroid rework on the horizon
Ngl i hated the change on void fash to void sling at first. I got used to it now but i still prefer the void dash
I'm so pumped seeing a Raid Shadow Legends ad on your video!
Not because i think this game is amazing, but because i know one of my favorite content-creators is getting a BAAAGG🤑🤑🤑
Fun fact you didn't mention for Oberon - Renewal is NOT centered on YOU. It's a zone placed in mission. Meaning, your teammates don't need to be in your range immediately when cast, and it lasts infinitely.
The only downside is, if Renewal is nullified as an effect on you, you can't just run through the zone again to reapply it. You need to recast the ability, which robs the rest of the team of your renewal.
Upside, though, you can put this zone ANYWHERE. Which means you never have to worry about it getting nullified if you're smart about where to put it, and that doesn't even mean always putting it out of the way for teammates to get.
One of the most satisfying things in this game is watching the frame you one trick that got ignored for so long get an insane buff I've been playing frost prime for years and this happened recently I got so excited the day it was announced, not to mention due to the changes to icy avalanche he technically has 2 shield gates
When arbitrations dropped, it made me want to use a lot of warframes. I wanted to give them a chance, and a lot of them surprised me after using them for something else than MR fodding, like Banshee, Titania or Atlas. Then, when duviri and circuit dropped, I pretty much always have a good built frame ready for the action. This is one of my proudest memories since I play this game.
If you're reading this, give a try to that frame that's getting dust in your arsenal. It might surprise you. ;)
I highly recommend trying Frost, he has come a long long way
I love limbo when you get into the flow of things its so satisfying. A shame there isnt too much to buff your weapons or armour strip
Ivara, Oberon, and Equinox are genuinely some of my favorite frames ngl
Ivara is my chill farm frame, including for Statues.
Great to see this instead of the boring meta videos ;D I love my max duation aquablade ash btw xD
So when I joined WF loooong ago I played very close to my roots as a stealth player so Ivara is and always will be my go to stealth frame. If theres ever a mission I don't want to seen in its always Ivara, and even her downside of "being slow" is so easily mitigated with proper movement. Is she as fast as if she was uncloaked....no....but you can still schmove.
Also, on my account I have every frame as I like to have variety and thanks to creators like Mrwarframeguy and his meme builds its caused me to look deeper into frames and find some genuinely fun playstyles I may not have checked out. The world really is your oyster now in warframe with 50+ frames, helminth, and archon shards to the point that anyone can find their favorite playstyles and potentially rival a "meta" in preformance.
Oberon was one of the first ones I really invested into two Umbra Formas because I love him. Archon shards really make him better and then helminth was pretty ridiculous too
I remember when I first got Nova, I hated her, and ditched her quickly.
Then I got Nova Prime, made a point of learning the kit, and now she's my favourite frame. Sure she's not good at everything, but she's good enough for me, and that's all that matters
I really like this kind of video!! It would be really cool if you made this a series and highlighted more non-meta builds for different frames and weapons. I’ve never cared about meta much. I care about what feels fun to play. This video really focuses in on that mindset and it’s nice :)
I make it a habit to collect the prime of ever warframe when it’s released, and I’m caught up so far, so I’ve played with lots of different warframe, and have modded them for lots of specific playstyles. For Ivara, I typically use her when I’m doing conversation Hunting or Spy Missions, I use frames like Frost or Gara for long defense or mobile defense, and of course I enjoy supporting friends occasionally as Trinity or Harrow. That said, more often than not, since I play on bad internet, the warframe I use more often than is the God-King of The Desert Inaros! Since I have to play a lot of time Solo, I enjoy being to play at my own pace with tons of survivability!
Ivara is my ultimate comfy frame.
I run her with the Quiver augment and a high crit weapon then just vibe, she's also nice for relaxed (albeit slower) spy runs, and Cloak arrow is nice when running with friends who play squisher frames and can't/don't shield gate.
Oh and Archon/Demo nuking is stupid fun
I put some archon shards onto loki and found it very funny to watch him survive archon hunts.
I did the Some with Ivara.... She Still Dies 😐
Oberon is QOL incarnate, he doesnt need rework, he needs number/mechanics/synergy changes. All of his abilities can stay, but they need tweaks, some small ones but others big ones, and he will be amazing
Ayo he finally talked about mah boy, oberon.
People underestimate him a lot. Some say his kit is outdated and I do agree in some ways (coff coff Smite coff) but he is a health+anti-status+anti-armor support frame and he does what he does well
I've always said with both Warframe's and weapons, that it's more about the mods rather then the actual frame/weapon itself. If you really enjoy how something plays, you can make it pretty busted with enough investment. Hell even MK1 weapons can do insane damage if modded right, which I think is the beauty of Warframe's modding system.
As an Ivara main, you hit the nail on the head, she really only struggles at missions where she has to defend something, everything else she can just kind of sit back and chill
Instructions clear, preparing to make a Steel Path nuker Loki
I tell people all the time that Nyx is a wonderful warframe with CC and invulnerability. Plus she has 100% armor srtip with +60 power strength. Yet she always gets shafted. I will always love her and still to this day play her in end game content with little to no problems.
Iirc it's less then 140 strength needed to full strip tho its not permanent and only hits 6 or 9 with augment
I usually play Gauss, but sometimes I return to my Volt Prime that I've had and used since 2016 when I started playing.
As weird as it feels to not have high running speed off the bat and being knocked by everything, I've played Volt so much in the past that at this point it gives me comfort.
For bonus nostalgia points I've made him look exactly like how my original Volt did with the starter pallette and my first Syandana while wielding a Paris Prime as Paris was my started primary.
In any case it's not as efficient as my Gauss with a Kuva Ogris, but it's fine nonetheless.
When I first got into warframe I just loved ivara primes design, and now im finally getting her after 88 days, only 2 days left till she’s done building :D
7:00 TERRARIA SNOW BIOME Theme
Man am I glad I got Ivara. Being able to 2-shot archons is great so the hunt doesn't take super long. The gameplay for her of just being a gremlin on her dashwire is nice and chill, and I can also use her invisibility to res or just help out my friends. She's one of my favorite frames I just gravitate towards playing, maybe it's just how chill her kit is.
Its easy to get caught up in the meta and power gaming, when the real key to enjoying any game is play it the way you want to.
After hitting legendrank I started to notice the usage% in my profile of certain gear pieces being in the high 20s to 30s while a lot of stuff not I would swear I loved using not even hit 5%, which made me realise how much I tunneled in on some stuff while mastery binging or first time conquering steelpath, e.g. my sporelacer kitgun was at 45% at a time in both primary and secondary most used slot, now I reduced it back to 21% by diversifying my loadouts. Duviri also helped reopen my eyes to many guns and frames that I just level to 30 and binned or left to collect dust.
Warframe is a content and option rich game, but we all tend to tunnel in either on the "meta"/best in slot things or most versitile can solve any mission options.
I absolutely hate shield gating, so recently I've started looking for frames that don't particularly need it. I did a nourish styanax buikd which can get massive massive overguard and I did the same thing with frost. I've been loving frost so much with Icy avalanche and biting frost augment. Another one I've been loving is Nekros his kit has a lot of synergy with gloom and omg it's so much fun. I never stay past 30 mins in steel path because I get burnt out, but recently with Nekros I almost made to a whole hour and I was so happy. Warframe is truly about playing how you have fun.
With oberon if you run quick thinking, rage, nourish and the healing arcane with abilites you never run out of energy or health
Babe wake up, new NovaUmbral Upload
If oberon gave a bigger armor buff than what he currently does and smite infusion was worked into his kit he'd be way better than wisp.
There's another problem
His 4 only armor strips if enemy is on grass and I mean ON the grass
This is me and Valkyr. I still need to retune my build on her, actually. Increase her range so I can use the augment for her 3, slap in some arching shards to make up for the lost duration, and boom.
I’ve been here sense the first episode ❤️❤️❤️
I recommend coil horizon on oberons 1. Build just enough str to full strip and have the augment for his 4 and he melts with pretty comfy sustain from equilibrium. Plus archon stretch while not being alot is still extra energy rec. I use brief respite just because his 4 is a spammable strip nuke that generates hp-energy and has enough cost to shield gate. I use 2 cast speed and 3 tauforged duration shards. Molt augmented and energize arcanes.
I love ivara for eidolons, im able to sync the first lure with one vom. Had to record her in action, so cool.
Chroma. Nourish. Hunter Adrenaline. Umbral. Adaptation.
Everyone's Gangster until the Chroma face-tank revives and then melts the Archon.
Except revenant
Yooo sponsor.🎉🎉🎉 Your are getting big
I cannot say how many times I've been in a call for long endurance runs with friends and us laughing at how I always tried to blow myself up as close to death as I could to gamify vex armor and self damage, long live the lizard man
chroma feels great now, killing to increase the buff
Just yesterday I crafted Inaros for the first time. Even with my incredibly limited mods and Arcanes, I easily got him up to almost 3k HP and like 600 Armor, if his Abilities weren't what they are, I could absolutely see myself running him all the time in Survivals or Open World for his survivability. But even then, I had a Harrow Prime in my inventory that I crafted and got to 30. . . really just for the Mastery. I didn't like how I needed to constantly use his abilities on a rotation and even beyond that, I didn't really have a chance to use him all that well since I originally got him around Jupiter where the mobs weren't dense enough for me to really feel like I could stack up his buffs and get a good chunky Critical boost from his damage negation, however after watching your Harrow video I decided to come back to him to try him out and now he's a mainstay in my gameplay. I still most of the time use a one button win condition like Khora with Strangledome, Mesa with her Waltz or Volt with his 4, but it's been a lot of fun to stack his Shields high as I can, or watch the Red Crits roll with his 4. Definitely glad I gave him a second chance.
Run Inaros with a Dagger and use that 1 a lot. The finisher damage is insane. Make it faster by adding speed to the dagger to get finisher off quick.
This is why I really liked grendel pre-buff. Everyone thought he was shit, even worse than inaros, but I got him to be a consistant powerhouse in steel path. With the buffs he is objectively better but I miss messing with his builds and trying out weird stuff to see if it works
I like to choose which warframe I wanna get next by just looking at the equip screen in the arsenal, and/or looking at youtube videos of warframes. if I see one that I think looks "cool", I'll think about getting it.
(KAPPA SEDNA CAN KISS MY SHINY METAL EQUINOX PRIME'S ASS. 10 MISSIONS AND NO GAUSS CHASSIS)
Out of all the Warframes I currently have. None can come close to the drip and comfort Ivara provides me when I use her, maybe at some point into the future, she might become my most played frame instead of Mesa who has carried me ever since 2018.
This was a cool video to watch, as it got me thinking about why i play the frames i do
loving the ivara and oberon appreciation 😊
I'm a pretty new player and I've crafted my own Oberon Prime, he is very expensive but god do I love him. Very quickly became my most used frame and I don't want to stop anytime soon. I find it funny because I didn't like like Saryn or Octavia or Wisp felt.. but Sevagoth and Oberon Prime? God they're too fun.
Oberion is my favorite frame! but ya i wish he would have a few changes to make him better. like the grass moving with him. and his enegry cost be lowered a bit.
Oberon uniquely can trivialize Defense and Excavation.
While Wisp can give both of these objectives health, it's just pure health.
Oberon's armor buff gives mad EHP to these objectives making them very hard to kill.
Thought I was the only person on earth who knew about that bit of trivia, good on you for doing your research. That fact has been a lifesaver for Excavation and Defense in Duviri against lvl 500+ enemies
Wait, objectives also gain the oberon buff? Never knew that
*Me, stabbing my Rhino with a 5th Armor Stat Archon shard:* Wait, there's a Meta??...
I played Mag before people started playing her more bc of shield gating. I play Caliban the most nowadays bc he is actually very good but HIGHLY misunderstood. He can nuke rooms at lvl cap with the sobek and his summons can do amazing smg on steel path with Nourish buff. I hope he stays in the shadows bc I dislike when people only play a frame bc they are good. It's a slap in the face to all of the players who play them for every other reason. It's like Wukong before his buff.
Ivara is also one of the frames I enjoy playing. Specifically with concentrated arrow and ensnare.
I use Ivara for all spy missions. I get her to max efficiency with 2 mods. Then equip her "prowl" augment, followed by Prime Flow and i go.
I know its slow as all heck, but i like it :3
Why don't you just Subume Wrathful Advance to Teleport Passed the Lazers ? 🤔
I gotta admit when I started playing Warframe I instantly fell in love with Saryn. I became a one trick and didn't bother trying other frames at all. Only recently I tried frames like, Citrine, Yareli, Mag, Valkyr and I have so much fun for different reasons! Same goes for weapons.
Oberon’s iron renewal (armour boost) should have its base amount doubled because 200 armour is literally useless
Ivara's Navigator is so fun and it's absolutely criminal how DE has made so many weapons lately have their projectile time arbitrarily limited, preventing Ivara from controlling them for more than a few seconds.
Oberon with nourish... he crapped all over steel path. I was able to spam my final so many times with a massive armor buff
I used to play conclave 1.0 all day and night long and my setup was Ash, Vectis, Marelok and ceramic dagger and to this day I got a full set up and I take it out to fast missions just for the memories even when the Ash build is just speed and hp/shields mod setup
I remember when I was a noobie on warframe, maybe 4 years ago, when Nezha Prime came out I did obtain him and thought that this warframe was pure bullshit, now I've spent around 3500 platinum on fashion frame for my nezha and gave 5 warframes to the helmith so my child nezha can be strong 😺.
Ivara really is the most versatile frame with all her builds being so unique. I love seeing them in my missions to see how they've built her, but it ends up just being infiltrate augments instead of any of her fun augments, so I normally get disappointed after being excited to see ivara.
Oberon is my main warframe. I'm working on making an umbra version of Oberon to do my steel path run
Honestly, trying to play with every weapon and warframe this game has to offer has got to be my best decision ever. I've made specific "loadouts" where I color some warframes and weapons the same color, and I force myself to play with that set (That all started from the "Signature Weapon" mechanic, which I believe to be one of the more fun mechanics in warframe, that might push some players to experiment with a warframe, that might not be meta levels, but good enough, while the weapon is strong). That might sound quite weird, but honestly, I've come to love almost every weapon and warframe there is except for certain passive ones, like Inaros, Loki and Hydroid (Lord Pablo please deliver, I am waiting with bated breath for the Hydroid Rework). I simply like to be active with my abilities, and drenching the entire room in a cumjitsu of radiation, corrosive, heat and viral as Lavos has never been more fun. I even made Trinity into a death machine with helminth's Marked for Death. I always was a bit of a hater for the meta strategy, but mostly because I am playing solo basically all the time I am not cracking relics, so for me it is kinda pointless.
I strongly urge people to experiment with stuff! If they wish to, that is. Because what is fun for me will SURELY 100% not be fun for everyone else. But picking up and dusting off a warframe you haven't used in a while, taking a weapon in the furthest corners of you arsenal-wardrobe and even taking that damn Wyrm Prime for a walk outside is, in my honest opinion, worth it, because who knows, maybe you've missed something? Maybe it could be a bit more fun to punch your enemies to death with Atlast, infused with Pillage for the ultimate punchage, while having Korrudo as a boost and an emergency tool to spin kick your enemies to Pluto and back? I know killing stuff is the biggest point of the game at this point, but maybe it shouldn't be 10000% overkill everytime. Maybe building Wisp for her 4 might be more fun for some, rather than boosting your speed and health into oblivion.
Again, not forcing anyone to do what I recommend, it is just what is fun for me.
An Oberon Main's Desired Rework:
Passive: Grant All Allies, Frames and Companions, Armor, Shield, and Health-Link, as well as one free instant revive per mission.
Ability 1: "Aspects of Nature" Rotate between 4 togglable (channel) buffs:
"Bear's Claws": Increase Armor, Weaponry gains innate Slash damage, Slash Procs hemorrhage enemies, dealing additional bleed damage and drop Health Orbs.
"Eagle's Talons": Increase Shields, Weaponry gains innate Puncture damage, Puncture Procs hinder enemies, slowing their movement drastically.
"Ram's Horns": Increase Health, Weaponry gains innate Impact damage, Impact Procs knock enemies away with immense force.
"Rabbit's Foot": Increase Sprint and Bullet Jump Speed, Weaponry deals extra Elemental damage (no effect if weapon does not have elemental damage), enemies affected by elemental statuses have increased loot drop chances. How Lucky!
Ability 2: "Hallowed Ground":
·Increase base Range and Duration, cast in a 360° around Oberon.
·Change Radiation damage to Heat, and add Thorns that deal Slash and Puncture damage to enemies.
·While standing on field, Renewal grants full health targets Overguard.
Ability 3: "Renewal"
·Allies that come within Oberon's Affinity Range while Renewal is active gain the buff.
Ability 4: "Reckoning"
·Innate Armor Shred
·Drops Health Orbs upon damage to enemies, instead of enemy kill
·When combined with Hallowed Ground, Damage is doubled and DoT statuses on enemies are triggered in one burst.
For Oberon, unless you are specifically needing radiation damage (for archons/eidolons), you are better off subsuming Nourish over his one instead of running the augment. It doesn't cost you a mod slot and also gives you a much better energy economy.
3:44 Personally, I use Molt Vigor over Molt Augmented since it synergizes with how Vex Armor works a lo better than Augmented. Temporary power strength is essentially infinite power strength if you can continuously recast Vex Armor. Also, I like to use Zenurik with Chroma, so I’m creating Hardened Wellsprings pretty often anyway.
I do wonder how good Nourish is on Chroma though. I’d love to start using it, but I rely way to heavily on Spellbind for status immunity (especially for knockdown effects, which can sometimes cause you to not recast Vex Armor before it runs out).
Personally I play whichever frame I feel looks the best. Valk was my main for ages, only getting supplanted by voruna. My go to weapon is a pandero because it's satisfying to fan the hammer on it. I'm all style when it comes to Warframe.
speaking of spectral scream i jsut did a electric scream chroma build and i bassicly become a walking taser
In a perfect world every frame would have a use or niche, other then just being a persons favorite. If everyone is using a frame over another because they do what the other farm does, but better, i feel that DOES mean the left out frame is bad in some sense and needs to be look at and changed.
Oberon is my comfort frame. Objectivly Wisp is the better support. Putting an arcane on lets me heal everyone regardless of frame. and on and on and on and... I just keep coming back to the goat. He's been that nice old pair of broke in boots I wish i could get new insoles for years now. Thanks to the archon system I'd been able to sorta patch oberon's range issues and running a 200% strength 235% range build is just.... Nice especially with hallowed reckoning.
