Uninfluenced honest opinions about the gaming industry and its current state. Currently we focus on Warframe & other formats like: News, Updates & Game Reviews
Today we'll be revisiting one of the best Area of Effect Primary weapons in Warframe, The Ignis Wraith.
Considering the latest changes, more specifically the Galvanized Mods added with the Sisters of Parvos expansion a few tweak are necessary to the Build.
Galvanized mods have done a lot for range weapons and while I still don't fully agree on the way that ranged weapons wee buffed there's no denying they are significantly more powerful than before.
With the Sisters of Parvos weapons came a lot of weapons. Some great, some less than that and some even bugged. Huge Surprise? Maybe not but because of these issues the Ambassador started off with a bad reputation. Now, with most of its problems fixed we can properly review it.
The weapon features tow fires modes. One is your standard assault rifle affair and the second is a charged shot that can be held until the opportune time. This also features an small six meters explosion at the point of contact that deal similar damage to the projectile making contact with the target. For this reason, shooting for the feet is not the optimal way of using this weapon. If you chose this route than you're renouncing about 40% of the damage. Not to mention the six meters drop off.
In terms of base stats this one is also a tad on the puzzling side. Base critical chance is low at fourteen and sixteen but the multiplier is high at two point eight. Obviously, bonus additive after effects such as Arcana Avenger will synergize beautifully well with this weapon.
Time for another mastery rank test. This time for 26. Only after finishing what is a fairly simple test did I Realize that Limbo makes it even more trivial. Realistically speaking thou, any Warframe will do fine.
Today up for review, one of the better secondary weapons of the Sisters of Parvos update, The Tenet Cycron!
This one shares a lot of similarities to the Kuva Nukor both in use and functionality. Beam weapon with a limited twenty eight meter range. This can be increased with Ruinous Extension in the weapon Exilus slot for a gran total of Thirty six glorious meters. The weapon will also chain to two additional targets and the range of the chain is seven meters. The chain beams will be dealing only sixty percent of the damage of the main beam.
Critical Chace has been increased to twenty percent but the multiplier has been left at only one point eight. Good news for the status chance however, increased to forty percent. Base damage is mostly the same, this does not take into account the Progenitor Bonus.
Since we are on the subject of Best Element for the Tenet Cycron there are a few options. You can go magnetic and help Galvanized Shot since magnetic is more rare of a proc. You can go Impact and get slashes through Hemorrhage and get even more damage and double procs for GA. And you can also go toxin for a brute force approach. The choice will depend on your own playstyle. The objective better choice is Impact unless you get slash on your target through some other means, like a melee strike.
