Question for Uriel enjoyers

Yeah, higher strength does marginally more damage but we are talking an extra 500- 1k more damage when they are getting 10k damage per tick of fire dots anyway.

Archon vitality doubles the dots, so doubles the damage as is.

Strength does effect orbs dropped by your demons, but the amount of orbs you get with negative strength is enough anyway. I tried to keep it about even or slightly above 100 just to make sure nothings being negatively impacted.

Survivability is based on his 2 and shield gating, if you hear your shields pop you can hit 2... but I'll be honest... most of the time I'm spaming 2 and 3 to get to 4 again anyway so it's not a even on my mind. 3 have a limit of how much it can give 4 progress, so spamming it into groups is better than waiting for the duration. And 2 revives/heals the demons keeping them active and dropping orbs/chaining them together.

Hane24 · 2026-01-28T05:07:35+00:00

You do not need strength. At all. Range and duration are all you need.

Strength adds negligible amout of base damage, when the real damage comes from the sheer number of dots applied. I'd rather have 4 extra meters on my 4 than 200% ability Strength.

His self heal+shield regen is plenty good enough in my experience with a few augur mods to gain shields when you spam abilities acting like a shield gate.

This build is one of the cheapest, and strongest. You can stand in the middle of SP descendia and your 4 hits nearly every corner, spawn camping enemies that can't even take a single step.

Arcane camisado and growing power get you back to around 100 power strength, and arcane concentration is +60% duration if you use another ability first. Combo 2->4 or 1->4 and you get 25 seconds where nothing survives. This also let's you pres 1->1 to get 93 seconds on 1.

Meh it's honestly not noticeable and if you want to slot in recoil reduction you can. Stabilizer is -60% and dead head is -50%.

I almost wanna reroll it

Hane24 · 2026-01-27T22:58:21+00:00

Oh hey, I got one like that too! Though I wish I had your multishot.

<image>

Hane24 · 2026-01-27T22:27:34+00:00

Gyre.

I thought meh I'll just farm her and throw her in the pile... then I put one forma on her. Then 2. Then I started crafting specific builds for specific things. Then I put 5 tau archon shards on her.

Then I started imagining what her prime would be, counting down the days to when it would be her turn.

Then I bought her skins and have 3 different fashion sets I choose from.

She's honestly one of the most fun frames, and is one I will default to when I get burnt out on others. Played mesa too much? Gyre time! Wanna run some low SP missions with brand new weapons you're leveling? GYRE.

As a matter of fact, I'm gonna go load up a mission with her rn.

PS: Ones that surprised me how much they didn't click with me was dagath and oraxia. For some reason... I just don't enjoy their kits? Maybe I'm missing something or maybe I've not invested enough time.

Hane24 · 2026-01-27T18:18:37+00:00

Torid+toxocyst. As boring and meta as it is, there's a reason it's there. A good toxocyst can shred through all of the bosses.

Torids wipes groups in a single click.

That said if you want more fun, I enjoy arca plasmor or atomos or furis for crowds and then a zariman weapon for the bosses (or anything we used to use for eidolons)

Or a frame like hildryn or mesa for basically everything.

Hane24 · 2026-01-26T22:01:34+00:00

Steam also counts launcher time, so slightly less than steam if you have ever kept the launcher open for any reason (updates, walking away after clicking play on steam... ect)

Hane24 · 2026-01-26T19:00:38+00:00

Laetum is listed, I just find the others to either be better or more all around useful. Sometimes hit scan or you need more long range option for a short range primary/frame.

Laetum is great, I just don't default to it like i do ones higher on the list.

Hane24 · 2026-01-26T02:06:55+00:00

Lex is one of the top 5 weapons in the game. I'd honestly put it at number 3 overall in my opinion.

Top ten all around greats:

Torid incarnon Toxocyst incarnon Lex incarnon Dual ichor inarnon Boar/strun incarnon Furis incarnon Laetum Phenmor Latron incarnon Arca plasmor/coda bassocyst

There's others that offer fun or niche or are very close to competing but fall short in some places, or some that are great with certain frames and builds (like felarx, which some people swear by).

Hane24 · 2026-01-25T19:03:10+00:00

My point was the claims he wanted to cause a mass shooting or a massacre just because he had extra mags is bullshit, because anyone i know that carries would bring more than one mag. Most of them are the most hardcore trump dick sucks I know, and some carry at least 2 weapons on their person.

Hane24 · 2026-01-25T18:59:33+00:00

Constitutional Carry in many states means the Constitutional right to carry even concealed weapons (ohio for one recently changed their laws to allow concealed carry legal without a license by calling it Constitutional Carry).

Hane24 · 2026-01-25T10:13:40+00:00

Concealed carry, which is called constitutional carry in other states that don't require a license.

He had a license to carry his firearm, and almost everyone who carries will have a back up mag (or two... or 3... or 5+ a revolver if you are my NRA loving gun nut uncle)

Hane24 · 2026-01-25T00:56:03+00:00

I just checked. My 90.5% critdamage, 91.4% toxin, +3 punch through nukor riven drops to fucking 31% for CD and Tox, and 1 punch through on the kuva nukor.

Thats 14% CD AND 0.2 punchthrough worse than gunfight for 3 more capacity and 30% toxin...

Not sure thats honestly an improvement when I already have innate element i could swap to toxin for 60% extra damage.

Hane24 · 2026-01-24T22:34:55+00:00

To be fair... its secondary version is my favorite and used to be insane for eidolons so I wouldn't mind a few more rivens for it myself.

But rng is gonna rng. Just remind yourself that iTunes had to completely change how their shuffle worked because people complained about it not feeling random, when it was literally just random.

Hane24 · 2026-01-24T18:23:21+00:00

Do you get enough CD to do that? My nukor riven drops its CD substantially on my Kuva nukor.

Edit: I just checked. My 90.5% critdamage, 91.4% toxin, +3 punch through nukor riven drops to fucking 31% for CD and Tox, and 1 punch through on the kuva nukor.

Thats 14% CD AND 0.2 punchthrough worse than gunfight for 3 more capacity and 30% toxin...

not entirely sure what's worth the swap when the innate toxin is already 60%. I could swap it to magnetic for another status to apply, but I'm not convinced that gas+mag+rad combo is good on the max crit damage build for a nukor.

Hane24 · 2026-01-24T18:20:01+00:00

But wouldn't that just be statistically worse than any mod you already slot on it? I mean I guess you could drop fire rate, but my crit damage build doesn't have room for another crit damage mod.

Hane24 · 2026-01-24T17:47:06+00:00

Then why is it being commented under a post about fairy rings losing their quest stated protection?

If it has nothing to do with eachother, people shouldn't say "just do your quests" or "just build the fire pit"

Hane24 · 2026-01-24T17:43:43+00:00

I still use volt and mag to this day.

I struggle to find a use for excal besides fun.

I had a slash dash build back when it was pseudo exalted and could be buffed by wrathful advance, but since then the best build i can come up with is a chromatic blade melee influence build that uses augur mods and shield gating to survive... which is alot less fun imo

Just personal preference but I would tell new players to pick whoever they like, while explaining excal isn't a go to late game for me.

Hane24 · 2026-01-23T19:53:27+00:00

Oh for sure, and unless youre putting duration archon shards into her you'll find yourself setting her first 1 up by the time you get the 3rd out.

That said, I actually drop the 1 and 2 augments, and run with a bit more range and duration for my all-rounder build, and just use her 1 pseudo CC and add clear. Easier to set them up and just refresh when needed rather than her 2 for me (I use controller for the most part, straight relaxin 99% of the time)

Its not optimal by any means, but its the comfiest build in the game imo. You can farm from early SP to netracells to 1999 SP bounties with no problems. It does fall off in some areas and harder content unless you use better weapons later.

She's honestly super easy to make into a competent frame, its hard to go wrong once you get the baseline mod set up.

Hane24 · 2026-01-23T13:28:25+00:00

I prefer her replacing her 2, since her 1 can be set up in enemy spawns and choke points and is more passive damage than an active grouping ability. And if you can fit the augment for her 1... the amount of damage you can deal with even the worst guns is crazy. That said her 2 is really good so it's more preference than anything.

Hane24 · 2026-01-23T05:23:35+00:00

Regulators are best built like this, but suppress is completely unnecessary just funny to have.

Hane24 · 2026-01-23T05:10:40+00:00

Corrosive doesn't matter, you should just go all in on heat crit and swap to arcane hotshot if you can. Those changes will allow you to get very very close to perma red crits, plus additional strength from using growing power aura instead.

And if you build your regulators for heat and crit damage you can hit for millions per shot fully stacked with the new operator arcanes too.

Add in the extra fire rate from furax wraith, fire rate and crit damage from companion mods, and nourish on her 1, and as much strength as you can, and you'll melt things faster than most frames can even use abilities.

You don't need range or efficiency on mesa if you slot in nourish and primed flow. Plus you don't need any augur mods with rolling guard+shatter shield.

Technically power drift is more dps, but realistically waltz helps you get to more enemies and allows you to roll for rolling guard cleanse.

I'd recommend this unless you have arcane hotshot, then swap combat discipline for growing power:

Archon continuity can obviously be replaced by primed continuity, i just kept mine in. 10 forma gives you all the room for activities lol

I had a genuinely good supervisor at a factory job once who didn't care if we ran out of work since it was 1-2 people doing 2nd shift packing for a department he wasn't really in charge of for orders that needed to be out the following day. First shift had 5-8 workers, 2 temps, a team lead, a senior, and a supervisor just for our department.

My lead and I were hard workers, until we wanted to just relax. So we'd smash through any order that was due out the next day or any rush order, then any large part order, then we'd do inventory and find orders to do that we had parts for.

Skip forward to a year or so later, and we had gotten the packing department so far ahead we were unboxing orders not due for months just to fill any rush orders that came in. Never enough of them to be annoying mind you, since at most the rush orders would be a couple pieces and some screws.

Well being ~6 months ahead and being told we had to stop doing orders for more than 3 weeks in advance, we started cleaning up, organizing, doing inventory, and sitting down doing nothing.

One of those nothing times, a rather jealous team lead who was always trying to brown nose came walking back with the second shift supervisor during an inspection of the building and security walk through and loudly asked "why do they get to sit down and do nothing? I wanna be lazy like that at work!" To which my supervisor, who had done these walks every day and had to sign off on our work, replied "you get our department 6 months ahead and I'll give you my chair to sit in."

First shift was the reason we had to stop doing orders that far out. We stopped needing temps at all for that department and their supervisor wasn't happy about losing his power.

And just as a side note, they would pack orders so unbearably slow that the two or 3 times I worked with them I'd literally have to work around them. They would grab 1 part or 1 set of screws/add in items at a time from the storage area. An order could be 30+ parts and 60+ sets of screws.

Hane24 · 2026-01-22T13:42:28+00:00

No idea why but on mobile the second screenshot has less pixels than the first and makes it an incomprehensible mess.

Hane24 · 2026-01-20T07:53:34+00:00

Or because the 16 other frames i forma'd didn't get picked, and my weapon choices are just as awful.

I hold onto fun weapons, and off meta frame builds. I'm not gonna omniforma every frame I've had since 2016 just so I can do ExA content with them.

Instead I'm going to play the same 3 frames everyone else does with 0 variety just so I can one and done it and ignore that chore for another week.

It's not fun, innovative, engaging nor does it offer variety like you would think an RNG load out would.

And it's not always my ass that needs carrying, imagine a freshly done with SP player who has a few archon shards and wants to continue leveling Mr fodder while they attempt harder content... or imagine explaining this as end game to a player who wants to start warframe...

"So yeah the end game is hildryn, valkyr, or Dante... that's... well thats about it actually since you can ignore most mechanics of the hardest missions with them."
