Protea - High DPS, great survivability

Another Economy build that is Steel Path Tested.

When I say it is "steel path tested" I do not mean I went with a big boom stick like the [Kuva Zarr], [Kuva Bramma], or [Tenet Envoy], then dropped a bunch of specters and railjack member and hid behind them. NO. What I mean is that I went with this 1 Forma Cedo and primarily used [Protea]'s abilities to really test her offensive strength and survivability.

Offense

I am a big fan of big Power Strength numbers. If you are too, Molt Augmented is just for you. This is great for long missions. After 250 kills, you get an extra 60%. power strength. It makes your [Blaze] Artillery initial and stackable damage from 1,190 to 1,615. And that is not even counting the EXTRA 100% power strength from her passive. This also takes into consideration the [Growing Power] effect that is basically ALWAYS active because of your Cedo.

The turret damage also counts towards her Temporal Anchor implosion. Thus, having a significant synergy with this ability.

Survivability

Shield Gating is a great tool to use. The great thing about shield gating and [Protea] is that you don't need [Brief Respite], Dragon key, or even the Augur Mod set (even tho I am using them in the build because they are great). You can just (hold) cast her first ability for Shield Grenades and it immediately gains a ton of overshields and extends your shield gating by 2s.

I equipped the ol'reliable [Rolling Guard] to get out of a pinch if it gets too bad (you know how Steel path can be).

You should have a Dispensary constantly active to maintain your energy up and continue casting your grenades and [Blaze] Artillery.

Operator

As per usual, I recommend the revamped Unairu school.
When the acolyte starts talking, start using abilities until you activate the 100% extra power strength passive. Once it appears, cast Caustic Strike to strip its armor, transfer to your warframe and cast [Blaze] Artillery at him. Watch him turn into dust. Also, remember that [Protea] can have up to 3 turrets active at any time soooo, massive damage output.
