BUILD SPECIFICATIONS
This build is very versatile and Steel Path viable; survivability is achieved without effort.
Stats are prioritized as follows:
- Strength: ability strength increases the Roar buff, the number of Mesmer Skin charges and the damage output of Reave.
- Duration: ability duration grants a longer uptime to the Roar buff and the Mesmer Skin stun.
- Range: a neutral ability range is more than enough for all the abilities.
- Efficiency: this warframe doesn't necessarily have to spam abilities all the time, so the fact that it's slightly negative will not impact the quality of life too much.
Natural Talent allows to refresh Mesmer Skin very quickly and within the period of invulnerability provided by shield gating. It represents a quality of life component of the build, therefore it can be replaced with other mods. Good options are:
Umbral Intensify can be replaced with Archon Intensify, provided that the aura mod of choice is Combat Discipline, which forces health loss on kill and allows Reave to heal the warframe consistently.
SUBSUME
Rhino's Roar over Enthrall, for a heavy damage boost on both abilities and weapons.
AURA
EXILUS
ARCANES
- Arcane Energize for the energy sustain; it can be replaced with Molt Vigor for even more ability strength, as long as energy is not an issue.
- Molt Augmented for more ability strength over time.
ARCHON SHARDS
- 4x crimson shards on ability strength: because it's never enough on this warframe.
- The last shard is up to personal preference, if using the arsenal below a violet shard on primary weapon electricity damage might be a good choice.
FOCUS SCHOOL
Both Madurai and Zenurik are good options.
ARSENAL
A badass warframe requires a badass arsenal.
