Warframe | Simplicity At Its Best | Gotva Prime 

In a world of incarnon and Kuva weapons, the Gotva Prime is the pinnacle of simplicity. Love this weapon.

Me and a friend described the Gotva Prime as "The old era grineer Braton prime". Its effective, simple, elegant, and satisfying to use. Good gun.

Funny youTube man displays taste for patience, simplicity, and being a nice person.

Primary frostbite with corrosive cold might be more fun than merciless imo

"In a world where we can throw around Infesticles" made me laugh a lot harder than you'd think, so have some money!

Primary Frostbite arcane is made for this weapon. On cold proc +multishot (more chance for reds) and +CD (for harder hitting reds) and I think ramp up is a bit faster compared to Merciless as it needs procs and not kills. Match made in heaven I would say 🙂

Hi

Using Citrine with red shards on this is a LOT of fun. Breaking the meta and still being effective is a welcome change.

"2 D's on a gun" "That is feeling much better". OH MY!

I like gotva prime, it's simple and pretty good. Thank you for the content silly internet man.

I don’t know if you’ll even see this but I want to say thank you so much for the videos you post. They always give me a laugh and inspire me to use different builds in the game and it always ends up being a blast. So thank you for keeping the burnout monster away

You may want to put a Primary Frostbite on it, since you're using Primed Cryo Rounds. At rank 5, it adds 120% crit damage and 90% multishot upon cold proc, and it's even pretty damn easy to get. Conjunction Survival on Lua, bought from Archmedian Vonta or whatever her name is.

I love the sound design on this gun it just feels great to use.

Lavos with this is quite fun. It’s simple, easy gameplay with guaranteed status for the red crits if you use valence formation

Literally my favorite/go to RU-vidr for weapon builds because you don’t mix in any frame buffs just simple damage maxing on weapons

Hello mister RU-vid man sir! So, Gotva Prime. That rifle is a blast to play with (pun may be intended). I run two Hybrid (I'm kind of a crit junkie even when it's not needed) setups both Corrosive-Cold and Viral (I don't remember if it's Hunter Munition or Heat). It slays in most missions I use it in. It's fun! A fun and interesting video as per usual! Keep up the great work and take care!

You need to try this on Zephyr; you get basically guaranteed Red Crits when shooting into her Tornados, plus they double Critical Damage. Lavos with his new Valence Formation augment and its forced status procs would also be good for this gun.

Oooh been faffing around with the Gotva, though thank you kindly for the helpful video MC!

I fell in love with this gun when I got it last Baro visit, it's an absolute laser and the damage on it is really good with such a nice fire rate. I don't have hammer shot so I'm running Primed Shred for the punch through and fire rate, and this thing chews through enemies surprisingly quickly. Galvanized Chamber, Galvanized Aptitude, Primed Shred, Primed Cryo Rounds, Malignant Force, Vital Sense, Radiated Reload and Hunter Munitions, plus Vigilante Supplies... it's a joy to just aim down a hallway and mag-dump and watch everything get sawed in half.

Yup, thx for the reminder, I leveled it and promptly forgot about this weapon. I will have to try that corrosive cold build, it looks fun :)

Running Gotva with the new lavos augment for guaranteed status procs all the time and just dumping crit damage Love your videos!!

Such a nice feeling to be able to skip out entirely on Crit Chance on a basic rifle like this, and still get Red Crits. The raw Puncture means it has another way to gain Crit Chance aside from its passive, and building Cold just makes a ton of sense, granting further Crit Damage and the utility of the slow. Plus, Primary Frostbite is fun to mess around with. I need to pick myself up a nice Riven for this someday.

Interesting...i shall use this build. Thankee

Using it with wisp that thing SHREDS, I love it.

Gotva prime is the best single target weapon right now cuz it feels the best and is actually strong, add in one single punch through mod and you now have a corridor clearing rifle

Hi Mr RU-vid man, I think you've found your niche in the Warframe space! I really really like the new direction in "dumb fun" builds.

I got it and saw other youtubers trash it. I really liked the way it feels so I decided to work on it. I actually put on the same build in this video. It's now one of my top 3 guns. I run it with Hydroid, throw out some armor strip and then shred!

The Gotva prime a simple and cool looking weapon that I love running with when I use Gyre.

I picked this one up from Barro Kiteer when he came around a couple of weeks ago. I'm a newer player, only about 60 days and MR 21, but this is hands down my favorite weapon and I use it on Most of my loadouts right now.

For me in any game with meta weapons i always love/look out for solid weapons that aren't nutty but still look great and perform well and ths gotva prime does it best love it

Gotva Prime is honestly everything I could ask for in a primary. It's just so basic and so fun. I spent plat to name it after my favorite variation of the Halo assault rifle, MA37. I don't often use primaries, but when I do? Invariably the Gotva Prime. It also just sounds fantastic.

I did Vital sense, Prime Shred, Galvanized Chamber & Aptitude, Malignant Force, Rime Rounds, Thermite Rounds, Hunter munitions. It’s been my go to SP weapon since I got it

For your corrosive/cold build consider dropping vital sense for serration and using primary frostbite for your arcane

One of my favorite frames with gotva is zephyr since vigilante supply if you hit the tornado it runs each separate hit from the tornado with the roll for increase of crit but the passive of the gotva if you get the red crit it effects them all

As much as I love my Good ol' Boltor Prime (especially now that it as an Incaron Form that turns it into a Machine Shotgun) there's something so charmingly simple about the Gotva. Plus it has great build potential.

I can think of a few occasions where two madurai on a gun is incredible

I run a similar build to the corrosive cold one, using the arcane that gives cd and Ms for cold procs to add more chances for big numbers. It's probably not as good as merciless but I enjoy it

Ah yes nothing like Funny Internet Man goofing around with le funny builds on weapons for my work break. Love this format of vids, more fun than the Weapon Encyclopedia imo and makes wanna play around with different weapons more. Also think you could use this form of "experimental build testing" on like Frames too? Idk this kind of vid just makes me wanna try out and experiment with stuff

Gotta say, i enjoy this weapon quiet a lot. Just feels nice to use.

Id also recommend kuva karak, very forgotten but an amazing simple rifle! Kuva hund is also an amazing simpler but flavourful rifle too!

"i waited for baro to bring it then promptly missed it" oh god hes just like me fr

Here's an idea for your next video A dual-secondary that I'm sure resonates with...a number of folks here...and certainly with those that're a fan of good o'l Clem... Le twin grakatas Because who needs ammo economy when you just hold down the trigger and everything is dead, yeah?

well I know which weapon I’ll be on the look for next

This thing is insanely fun with Zephyr. For those who don't know, her tornadoes DOUBLE crit damage, on top of basically making any single target weapon aoe.

Love these just 'fun' builds for weapons that are not meta but still fun. I know you get many comments but was wondering if you would take a look into the Balefire Charger (Hildryn's 1st ability)? Feel this is overlooked because low crit and status. But it has no fall off AND goes through walls, plus base damage can be pretty high (Since it scales off power strength and blast range scales off range) PLUS the mods on the weapon itself. With Hildryn's natural armor strip I think it could be a 'fun' build I never see used. Anyways, if you do read this THANKS :) Keep up the awesome videos!

I’ve been rocking the soma prime without it’s incarnon for years lol

Crit Chance is still a good option, because with the puncture (25% extra crit) and Critial delay you get to 97% crit chance, wich is a constant source of yellow crits with the same occasional red crit from the passive

My poor Soma Prime falls a bit further in my estimations, but this gun looks hella cool, looking forward to grabbing it when I next get back in

I really do feel like having cold damage on this gun is ideal. Puncture and cold procs work well together to boost the crit stats fairly effectively.

Love me some Mr RU-vid man out of context quotes XD

You want the cryo to be the dual stat as if not running cc mods on gotva you really want to bump up the status chance more for the cosistency of the perk , also hot take here , plated rounds actually fits exceptionally well for upkeep of galv stacks etc between that and frost bite if rocking cold

put the full vigilante set on your sentinel and gotva goes next level... also hunter munitions is not worthed, but instead go corrosive heat, high status, and the trait will do the trick, for the arcane i like to go primary dext since i usually play long runs with my Nezha if you go hunter munitions you have to pump up the crit chance and youll lost slots there, but is valid as well for viral i guess

The MIGHTY SEER is simple

"Infesticles" *blinks twice*

Definitely a good gun to use when acceltra prime gets boring to use

To be absolutely frank with you, first I didn’t get the Gotva Prime. But damn, does it feel good to use.

btw those dmg number setting protirizes higher crit tiers

i think u should take another look at the wolf sledge again, bet u will have a mighty good time out of that weapon with the throwing mechanic + melee influence

It's really fun on Lavos to be honest

and here...YEARS later...I didn't think baro had FRIGGALL left to offer me....i prolly missed it though, and my gamerwife didn't mention it. *glowers in their direction.*

well this is ideal weapon for primary frostbite. Critical Damage and Multishot are very good for this gun

This is fun to rock on gyre I bet

So far its one of the best primary weapons for Lavos with augment.

Easily one of my favorite weapons since I don't want or need my weapon to make my morning coffee, I only need it to "feel" good while I'm killing enemies. 🤣

This weapon is simple but effective. I'll run it with my Valence Lavos and Grendel

This is *extraordinary 🧐🍷*

Also I think primary frostbite might be worth testing over merciless, maybe it's better, maybe not.

@MCGamerCZ could i interest you in doing a guide on how to mod melee-weapons? I mean for heavy and light attack setups. When and why is a weapon good for heavy attacks or why not? What doyou build for on those weapons? Maybe in like 4 categories? Kinda like: Heavy attack on status focused weapons, same on crit focused weapons and light attacks on heavy or crit focused weapons. Its a topic i think about a lot buti feel like i'm never really getting it right. And i do t wanna watch a deep-dive explanation for every single weapon before i use it. I wanna know how this stuff works. Just a suggestion, would be lovely❤

I run almost the same setup for the corrosive cold. I have shivering contagion instead of armaments and the frost arcane(cant recall name atm).

You're fun.

You know you haven’t played warframe in a while when they start priming weapons you’ve never heard of.

well I'll be damned, maybe I'm not selling this for plat after all, nice vid as always mr. RU-vid man.

Man i'm so sore i missed the baro kiteer last week. The ONE day i forget to hop on the game Baro comes by with the mods and gun i need

I play Prisma Grinlock.

I also didn't get gotva as well for tennocon but I had to link and unlink me twitch for it to work

I will say, with this gun the new damage numbers lie to you due to how it works with big critical numbers, a lot of your non crit hits get shafted for it. You still get a lot of red crits but it just hides some of the lower ones

This weapon seems made for Primary Frostbite! Not sure math wise if it's worth but cold procs = even more critical damage and multi

Sometimes all you need is a gun.

You should try using Ophelia as a testing ground instead. Enemies come to you so it's not that much moving around. And the spawn rooms are IMMACULATE. Hands down my favorite node for testing weapons or frames

The ever elusive Hammer Shot... I've been using this gun for quite a good bit since Baro came 'round. Been trying to get this mod since I've unlocked damn nightmare mode so folks, I think it's worth the **shudders** 60 plat for this fun gun Edit: last i checked lowest was 65 but NOPE it's basically a 100

"2 D's on a gun" was really good xD

Warframe player see red number, warframe player neuron activates

Ok see now you need to do a video on Aeolak

Im curious what you'd do with Onos. Personally, its my new favourite weapon and with the Punchthrough setup on its upgrades, can onetap a 220 Acolyte with the incarnons final hit lol And by one tap, i do mean that literally. Shield and all, it just gets deleted lol.

2 D isn't to bad on the Gotva no matter what you will want Gunco and hammershot on the weapon.

I wonder, does its special effect trigger off of Lavos’ new augment?

I build it for crit chance. It is a monster with crit chance as well

If you like running Cold against Acolytes and other hard targets, please consider putting +damage on the weapon itself instead of the Arcane slot so you can run Primary Frostbite! 90% multishot and 120% crit damage on Gotva Prime can do a lot more work than something like Merciless.

What missions are best to farm weapon and frame xp without affinity boosters?

Personally I am not a fan of the weapon I don’t really like aiming (as most of the time by the time I have aimed the thing has been killed by my sentinel or a teammate) I’m more of a shooting from the hip player especially with how fast we are moving around most of the time it’s why I like the plasmor’s look look in the direction of the bad guy pull the trigger and no more bad guy I swear that the plasmor’s are actually teleporters and someone mistook them for a gun (there’s just this mass of body’s floating in orbit after each mission, pop oh look another one just appeared).

Could have done the cold arcane

I have a riven with CC and CD....its weak though....i wonder if i should reroll but ive wanted to get that combo forever on so many other rivens. My Boltor Prime and Telos are both better even before activating incarnon mode....at least the my hunter munitions builds are bc they need slash damage.

What about replacing Vigilante Armaments with good old Serration? What do y'all think?. We dont have any base Damage on the Frostbite build

Is Hammer shot worth it? If so, where would i slot it in?

What stats would i want to get for a riv and what to replace with it ?

Using this on dagath is crazy

if you havent been getting twitch drops you might have to re-connect your twitch account to warframe

Just got a riven for it with crit damage and multishot so, now I wait I guess

I LOVE boring assault rifles in this game, kuva karrak is my every mission carry. enough damage to do everything in the game, and just so satisfying to use.

a simple rifle is all ya want soemtimes jsut go back to the regulair shooter type weapons,gotva deff fits that criteria,jsut like i like to run my kuva karak from time to time not cuz its good but its jsut a normal gun
