Alone, she fights.
100 Primed Chambers were given out in an event, and for a short while you could transmute it before they patched it. There are barely any in circulation, and today I saw someone trying to buy one in trade chat for 3000p.

Primed is strictly better than Charged, giving +100% rather than +40% at max level.

A primed chamber vectis is a dream of mine. They've said they might release more in the future, it's kind of ridiculous to give out such an OP mod in such limited numbers.

Edit: Misunderstood. Run through T1 Void missions, which each drop over 10K credits. (Watch the Recruit channel and clan chat for this.) Alerts are also useful, though beware high-level defense/rescue missions.

My understanding is that during a recent blizzard in Japan somewhere a news crew was going around interviewing random people and one guy sharing an umbrella with his girlfriend earnestly said something sappy and incredibly embarrassing like "Sharing an umbrella in the snow with your loved one gives that special feeling" or something like that. Cue everything involving any characters at all having that meme done for it.

I thought it would be time to level up an Oberon and here I was worrying about not being able to use my abilities and be really weak for the first few levels. Thanks Rifle Amp!



Now just how useful is he? Is he what I think he is and it's really only his heal and reckoning that are somewhat decent? Should I just make him a stupid tank that spams heal? Seems the way to go.

He's solid. Hallowed Ground is nice for defense/mobdef missions, Smite is a little underwhelming but not abnormally so for a first-slot ability, Renewal is useless if there's a Trinity in the party but can be handy otherwise, and Reckoning is a very decent big-AoE ult that has a nice gimmick of occasionally turning enemies into health orbs when they die.

Most of the damage on his abilities is split between radiation and impact, making them extra good against heavy grineer (bombards and napalms) and corpus, as well as a bunch of stuff in the void (everything but the ancients and gunners).

I've seen some stuff that would really make you say "like what?"
I don't think his heal is very good at all, it's regen and it has travel time to the other players. His ult is good if you build for it, and hallowed ground can be good if you build for it, but the two don't really work on the same set.

His heal will revive you if it's applied before you go down.

It's subjective.
Aklex are good against armoured targets, so Grineer. Because they deal Puncture Damage.
Akmagnus deal Impact damage which is Impact Damage. So they're good at killing Corpus/shielded guys.

It will not, they fixed that.

Don't build Oberon as a tank, he's no better suited to it than any other frame. He's a damage frame with decent speed and stats, with abilities that help more to keep himself alive than the team. His best source of team support comes from just using his ult normally- at max rank it has a high chance to drop health orbs from enemies it kills. I think he's a fun frame, one of the best mid-tier frames.

I love my Vasto, especially the reload animation/sound since I can pretend to be space-Ocelot :ocelot:

I kind of want to get an Akvasto, but it wouldn't be true to the one true Ocelot, and I also love the feeling of being a space desperado and shooting my single revolver from the hip.

Also with 100% multishot and the new elemental damage it's like something out of Borderlands :allears:

The Lex is a dumb looking space .45. The Magnus is a cool looking space .44 Magnum although I'm not a big fan of the sound it makes when shooting it. Everyone can agree the Vasto is a sexy, sexy gun.

Yeah he is a fun frame and he's pretty drat solid if you're facing down grineer. Dropping his 4 makes plenty of health orbs for your team and you can defend targets against melee attackers by slapping his 2 down.

His 1 is kinda crappy on the surface but can murder if you use it in a tight corridor filled with enemies.

e: He was my first non-excalibur frame so I may be biased :v:

Honestly he's my second favorite frame after Ash because he can basically do anything. He's got a ranged Direct-damage ability, a defensive conic DoT Denial, the ability to heal, AND a room-clearing bunker buster. That's a jack-of-all trades. Just the ability to heal makes him stand out because it's better than Nekros while not as good as Trinity but he's much more offensive than the latter.

He's basically the ultimate support with an ability to use in every situation.

Also he's a Demon Goat Paladin.

Even more than melee 2.0, I'm wondering about the potential of these generic all-frames powers they mentioned. They could turn frame balance on its head overnight by just giving everyone a nerfed version of Iron Skin or something like that.

I'm at the least expecting Super Jump to get converted to an all-frame power, with Excalibur getting a whirlwind attack or something in return.

I had quite a nasty surprise just a few minutes ago. I was running those invasions for a the Forma Blueprint when my star map stopped working so I tried relogging to see if it would fix it. But an error message comes up saying I have been suspended until Jan 1 2035 due to an End User License Agreement violation.
As a staunch antisocial soloist and not being intelligent or driven enough to ever think about being able to hack the game.
I am totally flabbergasted as to what I could have unknowingly done to warrant a 20 year suspension.

Oberon. Is quite simply; fun. I'm having fun with him so that's all that matters. Still though, I can't stop playing Volt. Just that Speed and dealing 10 damage with my zorens at the speed of light. It's like I'm tenderizing meat. Just hitting the meat, just enough to make it supple. His ult is really good though, especially with maxed Flow. Can't stop spamming it.

I feel the same way with Valkyr. I don't care that Rhino or whatever is better. It's hilarious to run around punching stuff while totally invulnerable. With the buffs to her ult to ~somehow~ interact with weapon damage/crit I do like 2k+ crits. My only complaint really is that I can't stand that her ult is supposed to turn her into wolverine or whatever and you're stuck doing these boring punching animations. Also her melee attacks when ulted don't go through grineer shields, which really pisses me off.

I honestly don't like duration on my valkyr for flexibility. I run 70% efficiency on her, which puts it at about 18 sec duration, which is enough time to punch myself to full health and deal with gunners if there's a lot of them, but still allows me to focus on shooting with her if I want to.
