I have no idea if my Ignis Wraith is well built or not, I just jammed a buncha poo poo in it. Heavy Caliber, Split Chamber, Serration, Riven (+67.7% Multishot, +118.9% Crit Chance), Point Strike, Maligant Force, Vital Sense, High Voltage. I play this for like, a month on and off every few months.

ignis wraith has very low base crit and you will get more out of adding more elemental damage mods instead.

The crit isn't terrible, and if he has a riven he can definitely build for it. That said, I find that a gas status build is better for clearing out hordes of trash mobs, which is what the Ignis Wraith really excels at.

When you're done levelling the Grakata, build another Grakata and turn them into Twin Grakatas. Also, I will sell you a Prisma Grakata for 75p. It's like the regular grakata but with double magsize and more proc chance. Also it is shiny. gimme the GOD drat candy posted:ignis wraith has very low base crit and you will get more out of adding more elemental damage mods instead. This is incorrect. The Ignis Wraith's crit is at precisely the point where slotting for crit over raw damage becomes very very slightly better for DPS, which means that if you have this riven your ignis can end up doing 23k DPS as well.

I farmed hard for Mesa when she first came out. Built her as soon as possible, but never really saw the appeal. She just didn't seem that strong, but I held onto her, just because I liked the color scheme I came up with. I just now found out that you're supposed to hold down the shoot button with her ult instead of tapping it a bunch.

Got a question regarding builds in general (and this one in particular): I've been working on a Chromatic Blade Excalibur for a bit, and was using this build from Warframe Builder (I'm lazy, just went by 'most popular' ): Efficiency: 190% Duration: 40% Strength: 180% (Only if Energy Conversion is active, it's 130% otherwise) Range: 100% But watching some videos last night, I came across this: Efficiency: 190% Duration: 67.5% Strength: 200% (All the time) Range: 100% Both have 6.3 energy/sec consumption for EB; I'm also using this Mire build since someone recommended it for that innate 10% virus. So, questions: -In general, does it matter how you achieve the ability modifiers, mod-wise, or just the final numbers? -Either of those builds strike you guys as outright better than the other? I'm leaning towards the second once since it has much better duration, which is useful for radial blinds, and has a 'guaranteed' 200% strength, which is important for Chromatic Blade since at 180% it has 100% status chance (I'm a bit concerned about RNG loving me over by not spawning energy orbs to trigger Energy Conversion which would make the first one have 130%). -I guess a point could be made about swapping out Flow for Rage/Hunter Adrenaline, but I'm not sure how bad an idea that is without Steel Fiber in there? -Should I keep using Mire, or would I be better off with a Nikana variant or whatever?

Any time you need resources, find a planet that drops them and then do the local defense/survival missions. It seems like you get a lot more from killing mooks than you do from meticulously opening every chest. In the case of polymer bundles, you can find them on Mercury and Venus.

Typical, first Venus mission threw enough at me. Must have been the storyline mission vs the Corpus that gave me my first chunk.

I personally use something very similar to the first build, because I can't imagine playing Excalibur without Rage. I don't worry about the blind timer much since anything I blind is going to be dead very quickly anyway. I use a mire build very similar to yours, except I'm a fan of Healing Return over Life Strike. Sustained healing over burst, preference I guess.

I think I used a bad build or Ive got bad perceptions cause it feels like chromatic blade mire is a worse combo than pure power and nikana prime. The health back is nice but didn't feel like it made up for it. Also bought the conclave skin for the nikana so I'm obviously broken.

Edmond Dantes posted:
The second build lets you not have to deal with with energy orbs in exchange for being a bit less tanky. On defense or exterminate or whatever you're fairly likely to get one energy orb early on and then leave chromatic blade on forever, so it's not a very big deal, but #2 can be nice in modes where you aren't killing tons of stuff and so not getting lots of chances to drop energy orbs. For example, running through a rescue mission while ignoring most enemies and then pulling out the lightsaber to dice up some wardens. Flow strikes me as pretty unnecessary on a build that already has max efficiency. You could swap it out pretty easily for steel fiber (for more durability) or hunter adrenaline (for better energy regen, so you can keep chromatic blade up forever without caring about energy pickups). As for weapon choice: in general, your weapon choice doesn't affect 'exalted weapons' at all, only its equipped mods do. Even weapon-specific mods like augments or rivens are ignored. You can just choose the weapon that looks coolest, the weapon that already has the right forma to fit the mods, the weapon that works best with the mods so it's strong when you're not using your exalted ability, or even a weapon with some unique utility gimmick like the heliocor for scan-hammering things or the sancti magistar to heal your allies (but you can only use these gimmicks by turning exalted blade off). There are something like four exceptions to this rule: weapon choices that actually do make a difference to your exalted ability. All but the first are probably bugs:
Every weapon except those four will perform exactly the same. The game totally ignores the base stats and only looks at the equipped mods. RPATDO_LAMD fucked around with this message at 21:06 on Jan 19, 2018 |

That first build looks like it's set up terribly (handspring? steel fiber in the wrong polarity?) but has mostly the stuff I use. I'd prefer to be tanky over worrying about not getting an energy orb and blind duration or whatever. I'd vastly recommend Life Strike over Healing Return. Exalted Blade already blocks most of the damage from the front while you're swinging, and the situations where you'd lose health and need to recover are burst damage situations where you're surrounded or you fall into a toxin/radiation cloud etc. Chromatic Blade does so much damage you just need to tap the mouse button for a split second to refill, and you can determine when you need health at any time. Healing Return only heals you if you don't kill a target outright (so high level enemies) and is too slow to deal with a large amount of damage. You never need slow regeneration because Excalibur already mostly blocks everything and everything dies before they can hurt you.
