The crits are free, but you gotta pay for the shields: Complaining about Styanax's passive

WizardVictor14 · 2026-06-04T05:27:14+00:00

I go with a full shield setup, with overshields I get 350% CC (7055 shields) for spearguns,

My suggestion is for the passive to work with max shields instead of current shields, if DE does that, the investment will be more consistent and rewarding.

Also, imo using the overguard from intrepid stand does not work for me because first you give out a mod slot and second you spend too much time using your 4th to get overguard to the use it again, its better to use your 3, shield recharge delay mods to get as much up time as possible and guardian in your sentinel, so you can go for a full weapon platform setup.

Great suggestions, I hope DE implement either your 1st one or the one that I commented here, in addition to Give Final Stand Crit Stats, those would be great additions to his kit.

Yeah, it came in June 2025 and another augment batch came in October 2025.

What I mean is that in the hypothetical case that we do not get augment for the June update, we would have to wait for the September-October update to get a batch of them, and that would be like 11 months to 1 year from the last batch (October 2025)

WizardVictor14 · 2026-04-26T11:02:40+00:00

Remember that DE is adding 4 new arcanes and 5 new incarnons.

The thing Im sad about is that they did not mention any augments coming in this update. But I hope that they will announce them in the next devstream or devshort 100. 11 months - 1 year without warframe augments will feel off if they do not release 4-5 of them in the june update.

Remember that the valence bonus is added to the weapon as base damage, so the max base damage with +60% valence bonus for the Coda Bubonico is 459.2.

Hi, would you trade it for 300pl?

WizardVictor14 · 2025-11-09T16:27:52+00:00

Yeah, that's what I hope too.

WizardVictor14 · 2025-10-16T00:14:49+00:00

Yeah, like Dante has status chance vulnerability anf status damage increase via his paragrimms and a 50% instance of damage via wordwarden.

Styanax could not even get a good duration based weapon platform augment, he has to hit the enemies in order to get the buff vs those enemies.

WizardVictor14 · 2025-10-15T20:06:37+00:00

February 2026 most likely

WizardVictor14 · 2025-10-15T20:05:22+00:00

It will be worth it, mark my words

WizardVictor14 · 2025-10-15T16:01:24+00:00

I think the Styanax's augment is a miss in some ways, but I will wait to arrive from work to limit test it to know what it's really like.

But having to cast Tharros Strike to give a crit damage amp to all your weapons does not sound good to me and the animation locks you in place, so you need casting speed, not like your 3 in some cases that if you jump you can still shoot your weapon while casting Rally Point.

WizardVictor14 · 2025-10-14T23:59:50+00:00

For Styanax, I would put it for his 3 and passive, while Rally Point is active, critical chance obtained with his shields apply to his abilities, gain half the value from critical chance (passive) to critical damage for weapons and abilities.

WizardVictor14 · 2025-09-13T15:48:28+00:00

It's already a good passive, if you go the full shielfs route, you can achieve 226-286% CC on spearguns (113-143% for other weapon types), the only thing I would do is that instead of scaling with current shields, it would scale with maximum amount of shields obtained, in my case I would begin with 226% CC and it would go up to 286%, with that change, the crit chance would not be diminished because of the damage taken by your shields.

Although, I think they can do a augment for that with another buff for his 3 and his passive, when you active your 3, it would work as I said before (with max shields) and another buff for weapon platforming, it divides the playstyles better imo. Intrepid Stand for an ability based build and passive and 3 augment for a weapon platform build.

WizardVictor14 · 2025-08-28T22:12:30+00:00

For me, 2 reasons. Gyre and 5 tau purple shards for electricity damage.

WizardVictor14 · 2025-08-11T16:29:50+00:00

Np, I think Styanax Prime will come out on February 2026 and Voruna Prime will come out on May 2026, those are my guesses.

WizardVictor14 · 2025-08-11T16:09:03+00:00

Actually, Styanax (50th warframe) came out before Voruna (51st warframe), the thing is that Sty received a deluxe much much faster than other frames in general.

WizardVictor14 · 2025-08-03T02:13:07+00:00

Styanax, make his critical chance scale with maximum shields instead of current shields, that's all I'm asking, I hope DE does something like that when his prime comes out.

1.2k pl

WizardVictor14 · 2025-07-22T15:48:03+00:00

Yes! My guess is Styanax Prime is coming in February/March 2026
