Acceltra Build 2019 (Guide) - She's Critically Special (Warframe Gameplay)

With the introduction of Gauss we got two new interesting weapons. The primary version is the Acceltra, a mastery rank eight automatic rifle that fires explosive projectiles which arm after seven meters worth of flight time.
The weapon presents a sky-high base critical chance of thirty-two percent and a fantastic critical multi of two-point eight. The main drawback is the low base status chance of only six percent. This would be a larger issue on secondary weapons but for primary weapons, we have Hunter Munitions which adds a lot of viability to a crit focused weapon.
The explosions that the Acceltra generates have a guaranteed push-away effect which will make it more difficult to get consistent head-shots. These explosions do more damage than the projectile physically hitting the target but not enough to justify full-on ground shots. The Acceltra shines when you can get your target damaged by both the projectile and explosion.
That said, the build for the Acceltra becomes rather straight forward and I would recommend you pair Hunter Munitions with a bit of viral damage with one ninety mod and one sixty-sixty mod for consistent viral applications.



It should also be said that the ammo efficient is atrocious on it and Carrier is basically a must for any high-level content. You can also use an ammo mutation but that's not ideal from my point of view. Ammo pads are also a thing.

Overall I find the Acceltra to be a powerful yet fussy weapon that can deal with most content that Warframe has to offer. It's up to the individual player to decided if her attributes are worth putting up with all the hassle. From my point of view, it's totally worth it and I recommend the weapon!

Twin Vipers Wraith Build 2019 (Guide) - The Fangless Serpents (Warframe Gameplay)

Mastery Rank seven brings the Twin Vipers Wraith, a pair of automatic secondary weapons with impact base damage. Not the best start huh?
The weapon features a base critical chance of nineteen percent and high fire rate but the magazine capacity is only forty which means frequent reloads are mostly unavoidable. Base status chance is only nine percent and the weapon overall acts like a bullet hose. One advantage is the high Riven disposition of five out five so with a bit of luck we can get the weapon to perform decently well.


Without a riven the weapon is basically toothless and the performance rather poor. It takes a bit of resources to make something out of it and there are plenty other options in the game that will be outperforming the Twin Vipers Wraith. All of them in the same bullet hose vein.
Five forma for a riven build are required so I'd recommend you go all out and invest only if you're a fan of the weapon. If not than just level and forget as the weapon simply doesn't pack a big enough punch.
You can safely skip this one.

Exposing Harpoon on the Harpak - Hunter MuMu Love (Warframe Gameplay)

New weapon Augment for the Harpak brings three hundred percent critical chance for ten seconds after using the secondary fire of the weapon. This will add sixty percent critical chance on the weapon considering the base for primary fire is twenty percent.
If we factor-in Point Strike, Argon Scope than we are looking at a critical chance of almost one hundred and forty percent which is great for any Hunter Munitions base build. Let's also keep in mind that the weapon has a riven disposition of five out of five so you can amplify that critical chance, critical damage even further by some crazy values if you manage to get a bit lucky with the roll-on your riven.



In my opinion, this is a great weapon augment for a weapon that doesn't see a lot of attention and it does add a good amount of power for all the Slash lovers and not only. The only issue I have with the augment is that you have to remember to use it but that's a small gripe.

Grattler Build 2019 (Guide) - Ye Ol' Monster (Warframe Gameplay)

Arch-Guns in Warframe are still not that popular. Most likely because of their limited usability but that doesn't mean they don't pack a punch.
Today we will have a close look at the Grattler, an automatic rocket cannon. The weapon features a twenty-five percent base critical and status chance with a two-point zero critical multiplier. The main feature of the weapon is the projectiles it fires. Fast traveling rockets that explode on contact and deal area of effect damage.

The weapon surprised me with how much damage it can do when going directly for ground-shots and just focusing on the AoE portion. Thanks to the good fire-rate even high level enemies fall in just a couple of second. The Arch-gun also features base blast damage alongside it's IPS values but in this case blast damage works well in applying crowd control to a group of enemies giving you the few seconds of breathing room that you might need to finish the job.
The Grattler does have a few issues thou. The explosions can damage your warframe so that may put some players off. There are ways to deal with such issues but it can be seen as an annoying hassle.
We also should keep in mind that the Grattler is an Arch-gun and that comes with some strict limitations in terms of usability. Finally, the weapon sports a punch-through of five meters which works against the projectile mechanics, being the main reason we should focus more on ground shots.




While I'm fully aware that this may not be the most "ideal" weapon I can't help but love it! It handles very well, does tons of AoE damage and looks subjectively cool while doing so. Riven mods are also cheap at the current time and we are looking of a Riven disposition of three out of fine. I'd recommend you give Grattler a try and build it, for the lols if not anything else.

Meticulous Aim on the Vulkar Wraith - Borderline Pointless (Warframe Gameplay)

Level twenty-three of Nightwave - The Emissary brings a new weapon augment for the Vulkar Wraith called Meticulous Aim.
The mod offers one hundred and five percent headshot damage and minus forty-five percent bodyshot damage. It's clearly aimed at precision players.
After some testing, I came to the conclusion that I would rather recommend Lasting Purity over the new augment as it provides a more flexible and realistic benefit.



I'm not one to rant but this is not what the Vulkar Wraith needed in my opinion. The main use for Sniper Rifles in Wraframe is Eidolon Hunting where the Vulkar Wraith falls short of several other weapons. This was a great opportunity to allow the Vulkar to compete and broaden the scope of Eidolon weapons. A critical chance bonus additive after augment would have done wonders for the weapon and it would have given us another viable option for hunts.
As it stands now, I don't see much point to this augment.

Warframe - My Favorite Fashion Frames Part II (4K 60FPS)

This is the second part of my favorite fashion frames. Since you seem to like this type of content we can make an entire series out of it.
For today we have fashion for Rhino, Mag, and Nezha!
Bear in mind that fashion is one hundred percent subjective and should be taken at face value.

Revenant Build 2019 (Guide) - My Comfort Pick (Warframe Gameplay)

I'm still a bit shy about these Warframe builds but I wanted to give Revenant a go since you guys requested it. I love this Warframe so my opinion is a bit bias.
Revenant is a fantastic frame capable of great area of effect damage and also poses great survivability through the use of Mesmer Skin in combination with Reave.
He's not on the level of Saryn or Equinox as he doesn't scale that well but up until levels 130-160 Revenant can hold his own. Another use for the frame would be in Index as a tank with a higher emphasis on power strength for a higher stack count per cast for his second ability.



I only take fault with his first ability which I believe to be too cumbersome to be used but other than that this is an awesome frame!
I should also point out that the optimal way of getting your energy back is through Arcane Energize R3 which may be a turn-off for some players.
Recommend sinking two forma in him and if you like him like I do you can go for the full seven forma build.
