This was my Melee Status Queen build before Lavos was released. The design was to have as many statuses that could be applied as possible.
With this build;
- Corrosive Spores and Corrosive weapon damage boost.
- Toxic lash adding toxic damage to weapons.
- "old Gas" damage from the Lash augment. (as in a cloud that does toxic damage and not useless gas damage)
- Viral damage from Miasma.
and then...
- Thermal Sunder adds Cold, Heat, and Blast. As well as push/pull knockdown and freeze.
- [Lightning Dash] is squeezed in to allow electrical damage.
With Saryns passive, the effects all last 25% longer.
Now that Lavos is here, this build has fallen out of form and function, but...
- It is still has good click and forgets abilities with spammable AoE with Sunder, Miama and toxic lashes gas clouds doing nice damage and cover a good area.
- 1 Heat Proc (from Sunder) and 10 stacks of Corrosive (from Spore) results in a 90% reduction in armour.
- Paired with a condition overload/ healing return weapon (I use the https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Keratinos) survivability is good but not face tanking worthy.
This is an active play-style build. You will be spamming powers, melee attacks, jumping and moving. You stop or get in a bad position and you will eat the floor.
