Right now I’m using Gyre to make it an “AoE” weapon with Cathode Grace/Rotorswell/Cathode Current, since this always crits, but single targets are intended to be killed by slash procs. I’m using a Panzer Vulpaphyla for Viral primer. I stacked base damage for the Hunter Munitions slash procs. I’m using Primary Merciless with the intention of bleed effect kills counting, but I’m not sure if they proc Primary Merciless or not. Incarnon mode feels like it shortens TTK but not by an extreme amount.
The riven’s effects on the current build are visible in the display.
Some specific questions:
Should I be using Hata-Satya here? What would you remove?
Thoughts on what I should subsume over Gyre’s 1? Tharros Strike seems redundant with the concept of slash procs even though it turns things into swiss cheese anyway. Roar is a staple (and I guess it would help rotorswell), but is there something else? Maybe Nourish for viral and using a sentinel companion for the vigilante set’s chance to enhance critical hits? Of course I don’t have Grendel yet so that’ll be a bit of a chore :)
Are there other warframes that might work better to make up for Soma’s single target style?
Should I swap out Critical Delay, since the riven on its own puts me at 93.4% crit (plus Cathode Grace), or is the extra 60% for 7.9x normal/8.8x incarnon worth it?
Is the riven as good as it seems, or would you re-roll? What would you look for?
I don’t think the status is high enough for the new cold procs to help, or I would consider those.
My initial thought is take serration off and put the riven and hammer shot on there. You’ll have a bunch of crit chance with that riven so the extra crit damage is good, plus extra status will help with galvanized aptitude.
Depending on how much you’re using the incarnon form, taking hunter munitions off and putting fire rate on would be higher DPS, but that’s maybe a personal decision.
Putting more viral or some other element on the gun might make sense if you’re keeping hunter munitions but that’s also going to depend on how you use it.
Thanks - I don’t have hammer shot yet, but a friend of mine suggested essentially the same thing. I’m not using the incarnon form very much.
