Max Survivability with Deconstructor Healing

INTRO

This build is part of a 4 set build to maximize survivability and damage of Wukong's Primal Fury. It can easily deal upwards of 200-500k damage with 3x+ combo streaks while surviving for 2 hours any high level endless. If a teammate is using [Melee Guidance] or [Swift Momentum], even better but don't count on those trash auras. [Corrosive Projection] is what the other three should be running.

[Deconstructor Prime] entire purpose is to provide the Gladiator Set buff, which boosts critical chance per set mod, per combo built. You will not gain the actual mod bonuses (like the +6s combo duration). But you will use [Drifting Contact] on the [Iron Staff Prime] build to give yourself 13 seconds of combo duration. This is the only melee sentinel weapon to do this with.

Helios Prime Survivalist build is to maximize the HP/Armor/[Regen] so you can do longer missions without the sentinel dying too many times. [Helios Prime] is not the tankiest sentinel but it can generally survive 1.5 hours before it has died 4 times as long as you manage it properly. It also heals [Helios] which means you can do longer missions and keep your little buddy alive.

[Iron Staff] CO + [Reach] build is to give you a nice balance between range and damage, while gaining massive crit from Primal Rage and Gladiator set. Unfortunately you cannot put Bloodrush or Maiming Strike on it.

GUIDE START


This build is designed to keep your [Helios] alive during long 2h runs, or at least for 1h runs on endless missions. It synergizes with [Wukong]'s survivability and the fact Deconstructor Prime can help with healing. So many of the mods here are focused on defense.

First the must haves:

Animal Instinct - Enemy Radar/Loot Radar big enough so you dont need Thief's Wit for regular missions
Vacuum - So you can actually loot shit
Primed Regen - So if something bad happens, you have basically 4 lives with Helios.

Second, the defensive mods:

Calculated Redirection - Shields are a nice buffer even when enemies do big damage
Metal Fiber - Armor for EHP (effective health points)
Enhanced Vitality - Bigger health pool to synergize with Armor
Repair Kit - Constant 6hp heal goes a long way over time (this can be a flex mod)

Third, synth synergy:

[Synth Deconstruct] and Fiber allow extra health orbs to drop, that you can pick up at 100% hp, which double the armor of [Helios] giving it a huge boost in EHP.

Fourth, [Assault Mode]:

You need this so Deconstructor actually shoots it glaives out. See the build linked above. The status chance will help proc gas/viral, which then heals [Helios] every single time this happens. The guide goes in depth on variations. We do not use [Targeting Receptor] because its bugged and causes Deconstructor to have long "reload" periods.

So when deconstructor attacks, it will heal itself around 22-33 hp every few seconds, which pairs nicely with [Repair Kit].

If you think you don't need [Repair Kit], feel free to swap it with:

  1. [Investigator] (to scan stuff with)
  2. [Shield Charger] (the shield boost isn't much but the recharge boost will help you if you have lots of shields for your frame)
  3. [Coolant Leak] (it has a shitty slow aura but some people use it)
  4. [Guardian] (again for shield frames)
  5. [Sanctuary] (for those who like pretending they are medics or whatever but you won't really need this because [Wukong] is tanky)
