Uninfluenced honest opinions about the gaming industry and its current state. Currently we focus on Warframe & other formats like: News, Updates & Game Reviews
The first time I tried The Ferrox I didn't think it would amount to much, but as the speargun category is rather slim I decided to give it a shot.
The weapon performed much better than I expected, and is fully capable of melting high level targets with the appropriate build. Speaking of which, you do have a bit of an option in how you build the weapon. You can go for a classic corrosive / elemental build, or you can opt for a slash build made possible by the overpowered Hunter Munitions. Both builds performed admirably well, so it will come down to your personal preference.
It's not all fun and giggles however, while the weapon packs one serious punch it does suffer from usability issues. Most notably being the fact that the charge cannot be held and the weapon automatically discharges upon reaching full charge.
Everything considered the Ferrox is a potent critical weapon fully capable of dealing high amounts of damage but at the cost of fire rate and overall usability.
The Latron Prime is one of the weapons that I simply cannot use as it's constantly annoying me. That said, it doesn't mean that the weapon is not powerful and has everything it needs but usability. I feel that the Latron Prime is dated and would somehow need an update to better compete with other lower MR rifles.
The best build was Slash based through Hunter Munitions and plenty of Critical Chance and Critical Damage. While the weapon does have a good status chance it still fires a low amount of bullets so corrosive builds are a bit underwhelming.
Overall the weapon is powerful but a pain to use, it's simply not fun (Subjective) and I don't recommend it.
When it comes to burst rifles we do have a couple of options to chose from but none can restore health like the Hema.
I've tested several builds and at the end of the day a straight damage and elemental build proved the best and it's not very expensive either. Only High Voltage from the Naeglar - Eris which is a Hive Infestation mission.
Per shot the weapon will consume three ammo out of the magazine so effectively you are getting twenty shots out of a full magazine. The weapon will drain zero point zero five health from your warframe with a full magazine draining three percent out of maximum health.
Outside of its gimmick the weapons strong point is the base status chance of Twenty Five percent and default Viral Damage with critical chance being low at only eleven percent.
Overall the Hema is a strong weapon as far as burst rifles are concerned but you will have to look for a clan that has the research done and it is the hardest research to complete thus far.
I finally managed to get to the Lato Vandal and the weapon performed pretty much as expected. Mediocre performance with an elemental setup with sixty or ninety mods. Slash build not viable due to the low amount of base status chance, resulting in a small amount of slashes applied to a target.
The weapon's one saving grace is its riven disposition of five out of five which will result in insane stats on riven which in turn can make the weapon competitive. But that only with a riven. I'd recommend you look for CC, CD, Multishot, Damage in any combination with a harmless negative such as - zoom.
Please check the video below for the full build / guide
To make a long story short, mediocre without a riven, good with a riven and that's pretty much it. Plenty of other secondary weapons that will offer much better performance than the Lato Vandal so the only appeal it has (from my point of view) is it's former heritage.
I didn't see a lot of players using this weapon so I didn't hope for much but thankfully the Secura Dual Cestra surprised me! This secondary is fully capable of shredding high level targets in record time but it does have some severe drawbacks. Heavy Recoil, weak ammo efficiency, very long reload and relatively low accuracy. Even with all these negatives I still love how the weapon plays as it's very similar to something like the Supra or the Dera.
Hello and welcome back, as always, my name is Leyzar and today we will be diving deeper into this Mastery Rank 10 secondary weapon - Secura Dual Cestra. As per usual, we're gonna be covering a standard build, something affordable that anybody can get into, but of course, we also have the classic endgame set up with a Riven.
Mod capacity is 60 out of 60, and if your weapon only has 30 out of 30 then jump into actions and plug in an or Orokin Catalyst. The Orokin Catalyst can be found from alerts, invasions, especially after a Dev stream, or you can get it from the daily sortie, or you have the option of paying 20 Plat for it.
My weapon has been format a total of 5 times but this was done for the purpose of testing. For the weapon build I'm gonna be recommending you guys, you can get away with 3.
First of all we are checking how the weapon behaves without any mods equipped. (video) and take a look at the stats, following with recommended mods and the actual builds.

Conclusion: The weapon can be obtained from the Perrin Sequence for one hundred thousand standing and it's more then worth the acquisition and build. You can either go Hybrid or you can ignore critical chance and damage and simply go for raw damage and status chance through the dual stat mods. The Secura Dual Cestra is another weapon that surprised me and I highly recommend it as it's fully capable of annihilating mostly any enemies that would stand before you.
I was one of the fortunate players that got the Dex Sybaris at low MR so it came as a huge upgrade. At that time I didn't know much about building weapons so for a while it laid dormant in my arsenal but now it's finally time to unlock it's full potential.
Hello and welcome back, as always, my name is Leyzar and today we will be diving deeper into this Mastery Rank 7 primary weapon - The Dex Sybaris. As per the usual, we're gonna be covering a standard build, something affordable that anybody can get into, but of course, we also have the classic endgame set up with a Riven.

Next, we are taking a look at the mods, starting with the mandatory ones. Serration - 165 % extra damage. Next we're gonna go into Multi shot with Split Chamber and Vigilante Armaments, and this will total a hundred and fifty percent Multi Shot between these two. That means that I'm gonna be getting a guaranteed second bullet with each and every shot, and a 50% chance at a third bullet. Also, considering the fact that the Dex Sybaris is primarily a Crit weapon, I will be getting some benefit out of the set bonus from Vigilante Armaments as well.

In terms of build you do have an option but my recommendation would be to work with the weapon's strength and go for a critical build focused around slashes obtained through Hunter Munitions. You can go for either Viral damage or simply amp-up the critical chance and damage depending on what mods you have available, both builds being very efficient.
Another awesome burst rifle that can pack one hell of a punch, the only issue being availability since this one can only be obtained from the yearly Warframe Anniversary celebration.
