Royal blue banshee
This is a magnetic, electric arcs build which synergize with resonance augment.
Why electricity?
- The electric arc can touch any body parts and thus touch Sonar and proc Resonance on kill.
Why magnetic?
- Killing an enemy or breaking his shield with magnetic DMG guarantee an electric proc of elemental damage.
- The electric DMG scale by 3% of the shield/overguard of said enemy, per stack.
- it can stack 10 times. (30% of the total shield/overguard when said shield/overguard break, into guaranteed electric DMG)
Good to know:
- [Banshee] doesn't require to use crit mods at all with the use of her sonar. Status are still mandatory to proc & spread as much electricity possible with her weapons.
- You can use sonar mid air or while sliding to keep momentum.
- You can use sonar, silence and omamori while in Shade's stealth. But not sonic boom.
- Since you won't mod with crit, it free slots for fire-rate, more multishot, faster reload, body penetration. Raw damage and status are your friends.
- Ammo mutation mods are your best friends.
Optionals elements:
- radiation: for cc (kuva, tenet, coda, etc.)
- explosion/gaz: for more weakpoint proc from Sonar and Resonance (kuva, tenet, coda, etc.)
Requirements:
- 2 purple tau forged: +% primary electric DMG
- main weapon must have:
- A pure electric element (doesn't matter the source, can be only from the purple shards)
- magnetic (example: 1999 mods)
- lot of status chances (around 60% at minimum but the more you can proc elemental damage, the better it is)
My setup for archon shards:
- 2 purple tau forged: +% electicity DMG on main weapon
- 2 yellow tau forged: +% cast speed
- 1 red tau forged: +% primary status chance (optional: power duration or strength) (synergize with the purple tau forged shards)
Here are a few recommended weapons:
- ax-52 (with the augment mod)
- phage
- phantasma prime (example build): https://overframe.gg/build/840954/phantasma-prime/phantasma-example-shotgun-for-electric-magnetic-banshee/
- recommended shotgun primary arcanes:
- primary crux (great on beam or fire rate focused weapons that can proc status)
- fractalised reset (great on shotgun and other weapons with high reload time. Remember that you spam sonar.)
- shotgun vendetta: nothing better than faster reloading time and more multishot (synergize well with [Shade] [Ambush] augment. Requires to take a bit of risk but should be fine as long as you don't attempt level cap. U'll get squished by a slap.)
- Grimoire: electricity and/or magnetic, gas, explosion.
- Okina Prime (example build): https://overframe.gg/build/842069/
- Anything that can proc melee influence
Subsume:
- Pillage or Molt: for alternative to shield gating
- Omamori: heal you instead of taking DMG (50/50) (my favorite so far)
- Gloom: extends Silence CC
- Chyrinka pillars: great to lockdown entire area (synergize with Arcane universal fallout)
My fav companion for steel path and survivability, EDA/ETA :
Primer:
- hound companion (Synergize with Arcane universal fallout)
- [Epitaph], [Nukor] (really, anything that you are comfortable to play with as a secondary but it must be able to dish out status)
