With the arrival of the Plague Star event I decided to give the Atlas Warframe a try and I was pleasantly surprised of the gameplay and effectiveness of this frame. After a fair bit of testing and research I understood how he works and what effects him, it really depends on what exactly you want from the Warframe. My option is more of a balance setup that ca make use of all his abilities but primary focus remains on punches. The Build is power hungry but that can be fixed with Arcane Energize R3 or if you don't have that one look towards Hunter Adrenaline or Rage.
Overall I enjoy the Plague Star event and I believe that Atlas is a bit overlooked, give him a go as he is very strong and can be tons of fun!
If you want to talk about Crossbows in Warframe then there are two contenders, a crit version and a status version. The Zhuge being the latter of the two.
The weapon posses the highest base damage of all fully automatic weapons and it also boasts a huge base status chance of thirty five percent and a critical chance of twenty percent. It was clear from the get go that this weapon would be able to shred targets.
The build options are rather straight forward. You can go for an elemental setup with something like Corrosive damage or you can take the Hunter Munitions approach and try to get the weapon to a solid critical chance. Both builds performed admirably well but my vote goes to the elemental setup as I'm tired of Hunter Munitions on everything. The cheapest build would be through HM and a viral elemental combo using the ninety mods and it does provide good results.
The Zhuge is a strong weapon, one capable of taking-on high level enemies regardless of faction but it has some rather stiff competition from the Attica. As always, the choice is yours.
When the first part for the Brakk dropped for me I got super excited, thinking that I got a hold of something really special, and of course I asked my friends: "Hey man, what is this all about?". They explained that I'm gonna need all of these parts that only drop from the Grustrag Three, and I thought ... "Oh my god I'm gonna get this legendary weapon!" Was it worth the wait? Well ... we're about to find out!
Hello and welcome back, as always, my name is Leyzar and today we will be diving deeper into this secondary weapon - The Brakk. As per usual, we're gonna be covering a standard build, something affordable that anybody can build, but of course, we also have the classic endgame set up with a Riven.
Mod capacity is 60 out of 60, and if your Brakk 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, 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, 2-3 forma should do it.
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.
Please check the link below to view the full Build / Guide Video:
The weapon has a lot critical chance and low base status chance and since it's a shotgun it makes it very hard to get a real benefit from Status or Crit and sadly in Warframe that usually spells a weak weapon with rather limited build options.
I cannot call the Brakk an endgame weapon and considering the process of obtaining the weapon I believe it deserves either a buff or an easier way to acquire it. As it stands now The Brakk is little more then mastery fodder.
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.
