I would like to point out that after the Dante release, Chroma became immediately unplayable due to the unique nature of Dante's overshield health buff. DE was forced to rework vex armor which made it so that whenever you killed an enemy you were able to increase both your armor and damage. Also, if you remove the Effigy ability in exchange for Tharros Strike, you are able to +DMG, ARMOR, HEALTH/ARMOR/RELOAD SPD/SHIELDS for all of your allies and -ARMOR to all enemies in front of you. He may be a dragon, but he plays more like a Bard from DND. If anything, I would say that with helminth, he's at worst B tier.
@@cakekiller1051because it makes no sense to slap an image with no details. It makes much more sense to check which warframes you are interested in and what's their tier like
Btw qorvex's pillars do have an extremely strong use that is simply not mentioned anywhere in game for some reason, If you hit a pillar with his lazer on top of the enhanced output of the waves the waves activate additional chain explosions that are created by hitting enemies with his 4, having 2 pillars in a crowd being hit by his 4th massively increases his nuking potential
@@emilystrong7682 yeah ofc but the DMG the 4th do doesn't scale that much from strength so instead you could mod for range and make so that a whole room gets hit by the debuff and gets reseted everytime the pillar pulses instead of just the moment you apply the debuff
@@emilystrong7682 it isn’t lower damage though, hitting the pillars doesn’t take your entire beams duration so your beam can still deal its damage while gaining the additional damage from the pillars
Voruna surprised the crap out of me. She might be the best melee frame, with massive Condition Overload potential. She's also one of the most well-rounded, with great survivability and infinite energy with her 3 and 2 synergy, plus speed and flat invisibility with her 1, not to mention constant status and knockdown immunity with no energy cost using her 2's passive. I really hope she doesn't get nerfed in the future; she's amazing.
@@DrewBoivie I don't use her invisibility for survivability. For that I use her 2 and 3 synergy and the Equilibrium and Health Conversion mods. She can't die because she's constantly being healed.
i dont think she if any frame will be nerfed anytime soon, with incarnons being as powerful as they are (and being untouched) it would be odd for frames to be nerfed
Hildryn is high A to S teir. Putting elemental ward as her first ability then combined with blazing pillage and archon stretch makes her a monster for stripping and clearing
Thanks for giving my man Rhino some love. I feel he's largely underappreciated because of the likes of Nezha, but Rhino will always be a king to me (Millions of Iron Skin makes me feel all warm and tingly.) I do however think Hildryn deserved a bit more love in here. Her 2 + 3 is like old "World on Fire" Ember. Put 300+ ability strength and Pillage can single-cast-full-strip armor enemies on entire map tiles. She also isn't bound to Energy, so no energy pad plopping necessary. Also, best shield-gating in the game.
3.5 second shield gate for you and your whole team, AKA long enough to get a full recharge from arcane aegis. Also just an absolute insane amount of EHP before the gate even kicks in.
Its worth noting with qorvex that shooting his pillars with his 4 causes them explode like enemies do, allowing for some very potent room clearing/burst damage. It may not be enough to move him up a rank, but its worth knowing
as an oberon main (and one from before his rework) it makes me sad to see him never get very high in the ranks, but that doesnt meant i dont understand or agree with the points. he really is a "jack-of-all" kinda goat, with all the ups and downs associated with that label. personally i feel he does have pretty east SP viability, if you mod for his 4's augment (aka the flashbang build) and subsume either his 1 or 3 out, depending on if you need that little bit of dps or sustain. he has pretty decent cc, has a pretty big range for his carpet nuke (if you aug his 2), has both self and party sustain with his 3 (with some i-frames as a treat if using pheonix), and the buffs of his 1 make him not a bad option for eidolon runs. basically his is good for the casual soloist who wants the option for SP, but not the focus on it
I would highly recommend giving Ember another chance! She can get obscenely tanky while also dealing massive AoE damage with her 4, and here's a correction: Her 3 doesn't need the target to be vulnerable to knockdowns, certain enemies (most bosses) are simply immune to the ability, but she can full strip void angels, overguarded enemies, etc without issue. She's not perfect, but i play her almost exclusively and she's a lot more versatile than people realize. Oh, and if you're having trouble with managing her immolation gauge, try running high efficiency. Spam 4 and make sure to reset Immolation's energy drain every so often by casting 3. If you want it even easier, use Nourish in place of Fireball. I also advise running her Exothermic augment in most cases as it vastly improves her energy economy. Anyways, hope you'll give her another try. Oh, and having played her since beta, I can confidently say this is the best shape Ember has ever been in. People often say 'old Ember was better', but what they mean by that is 'old Ember was easier'. They just want World On Fire back. Inferno scales much better, deals far more damage, and it's augment is much better. The only thing i miss about old Ember is accelerant, but she doesn't need that anymore, with her armour strip. Think of her heat gauge as a resource you spend- casting 1 and 4 builds more Heat faster- Fireball casts add 1% Heat generation per second, Inferno casts add 3%. Every Fireblast both immediately reduces your Heat level by 30%, and reduces your heat generation rate by 2% per second. With sufficient efficiency and/or duration, you can remain at max heat for the vast majority of the mission. Additionally, don't overlook her passive; there is no cap. In steel path with good spawn density, you can easily reach over 200% extra Strength from Ember's passive alone. She has her problems- When will you fix Fire Blast's line of sight detection, DE? - but I definitely think she's more deserving of a B or possibly A-.
How do you run survivability on yours? Shield gating? Health tank? I’m curious because I find that aspect is the only issue I run into with her for endless endurance.
I was surprised how low he rated her,she's excellent in endurance runs. Prob B since she does lack flexibility in other modes as she def shines more with hordes.
I think a rework of older passives across the board will go a long way to bring frames like Excalibur into the present day. It seems every frame made or reworked in the past few years has a passive so strong we'd probably cast it as a buff if we could... And there's Excalibur who only very slightly buffs a select few melee classes along with his 4. Or Loki, who sticks to walls a bit longer.
@@page8301 you didnt just seriously say that Rhinos passive isnt that terrible it might as well not exist, him,, Frost, Chroma, Loki, Gara and many more need rework on their passives he is a Rhino, make his passive movement buff that scales but only while going in 1 direction, as his kit is completely fine barring his 1, but he could use some movement speed so thats cute but also somewhat useful passive. Or just give him some generic new style passive that buffs him in some way, give him like some random scaling buff for every enemy that hits him in certain time wondow, call it raging thino or some crap
Excal is generally on the edge of being on the level of Vot and Mag in terms of being fun and strong he suffers from "augment needs to be a part of the ability" with his 3, his 1 and 4 are fine, funny enough what used to be one of his 2 useful abilities in his 2 is the one that needs rework or completely new ability, giving hime some better CC, survivability, or some buff. When it comes to his passive, would be funny if they gave him very generous range and attack speed buffs for swords, they generally need to play a bit more with melee range its underapreciated
Wukong was done dirty here! His clone arguably doubles his damage, can be used to afk farm since he can kill groups without u doing anything and he can fucking prime, u can put an epitaph with viral on his clone and destroy everything with melee or have him distract and prime enemy groups with melee while you clear them with your primary. His 2 is just amazing, great for speed running, great healing, stuns enemies and can reposition him where he's needed like easily carrying excavator power cells across the map, reviving teammates or going straight into a vault's console. His 3 tanks him up pretty good and provides a good invulnerability window to avoid getting getting bursted like his 2. 4 is fun and a pretty thematic skill but personally I don't feel I need another melee as I'll already have a strong one equipped, this can be Helminthed or his 3. All in all Wukong is as tanky as he is versatile, he can be used in all content without any issue, funny that he's placed in B tier here underneath the likes of Banshee who can barely survive steel path without a Helminth skill or deep knowledge of shield gating mechanics, ludicrous even...
congrats on the sponsor, kyaii without using any bias i can say that this tier list is actually very fair, i was expecting you to quickly go over some frames and not talk anything about them, but you actually did explain them in detail as far as im watching nice tier list 👍
I love that you specified each warframe is vlusable. Just some are weaker, some are weaker by alot, but all are useable. Makes a new player like me wanna try out as many as I can to try and find the one I enjoy the most right now.
Sevagoth should've stayed in the "unranked" category, but overall great tier list. It is undeniable that any frame can be viable nowdays, it's just that some take more effort and understanding than others.
@@kyaii I think he was underexamined a bit, it seemed not his shadow, helminth and forma count was considered. Not saying he should be higher or lower, just not understood :)
Excalibur be getting so many buffs recently that he is S Tier today. Also he isnt as simple as people may think since theres alot of modding around that Radial Howl if you are using Umbra...
Too harsh on Loki. His augments for his third and fourth abilities are fantastic. His first ability can be used to exploit enemy Al but it's pretty abysmal, however, we have subsume available so put Silence, Roar, or Resonator in place of Decoy and you're laughing. His passive is weak but fun as it feels like infinite wall climbing like you're Spider-Man and synergizes really well with Arcane Arachne a slept on arcane. His invisibility making him nigh immortal isn't as broken as it first sounds because if you solely mod for it you have nothing else, no crowd control leaving you out to dry, no damage, plus teammates can still draw fire to you if you go brain dead and stop actively skirting behind to avoid line of fire since enemies not targeting you doesn't mean they stop shooting. I’m not trying to downplay how great his invisibility is I’m just saying it still has it’s limitations and as such you need to build him for at least his invisibility and one other thing like a subsume of Silence which paired with his augmented Radial Disarm gives him impeccable crowd control or a subsumed Roar which paired with Arcane Arachne or Molt Augmented can be used to make him an invisible weapons platform. All this not even to mention that his Switch Teleport augment boosts his survivability too much to be ignored as if Invisibility is the only thing that keeps him alive. He's also gorgeous and makes for excellent fashion-frame fun. As a fan I know I’m biased but am I wrong? Great video though. Thanks man!
I disagree with the ember placement. You point out the fact that you want high immolation for DR but to use the armour strip you need to decrease your immolation. This is fair but what you can do is after you cast 2, look into a corner and spam 4 (wont hit enemies that are not on your screen so doenst cost energy). This increases the rate at which the meter increases. You can easily get it to max out almost instantly any time you cast 3. Her energy ramping mechanic is imo not really a problem as long as you play ember as intended. The energy drain on 2 only activates at 100 immolation. How much it drains per second depends on how long you have been at 100 immolation for. Casting 3 reduces immolation below 100 and so resets the counter. Regular 3 casts let you have much less energy drain (which you should be doing anyways). Her damage is good enough to kill weak mobs easily and if you need more, roar double dips your DoT on your 4 and heat inherit can boost it even further if you really need. She can also buff weapons a bit too. Her 1 augment gives her a lot of heat damage alongside armour strip and DR letting you focus on weapon play.
Thanks for this vid man. I just got back into warframe like 2 weeks ago and decided to get Kullervo because I liked the idea of teleporting like if it's Dishonored and have been PLEASENTLY surprised how much i love that warframe.
I enjoyed your video a lot. I agree with your take on most warframes. The only one that I would have liked to see more discussion given to would be Wukong since he has invulnerability that can easily give 1500 armor, and healing that can also double as movement and skipping lasers in spy missions. His clone is nice, but it's not everything in his kit, and that's without his passive letting you die 3 times a mission and get rewarded instead of punished for it. For unranked, I didn't give Lavos much attention until recently, either. I saw TheKengineer's video about why he uses Lavos in most videos showing off weapons and became interested. Then I realized how potent it can be with the Mecha set especially. My current build is triple Umbral mods with full set Mecha between him and his pet and the augment for his first ability with Adaptation for good measure. It is so comfortable for most content and as long as some kind of orbs are dropping every 10 seconds (Synth Deconstruct helps with this), his passive makes him immune to statuses including knockdown, so no need for Primed Sure Footed like many frames need. Easy S tier for everything it can do and how fast it scales imo. Every time someone in a video like this talks about "CC", my first thought is "Crowd Control" and I get confused until I stop to think about it and realize what it is really about
Every tier list needs a visual overall summary...usually at the end at least. That being said, I found myself being fairly in sync with the placements...at least as much as anyone reasonably can be with someone else's tier list.
Im so glad nezha is ranked in A. A lot of other content creators have ranked him low or just dont know his vaule. He's super versatile. I have so many different versions of him that I can run him in any content imaginable. Not only is he good at tanking but lowkey provides so much team support. Safeguard augment, while I don't really use it anymore, still provides almost anything with 90% dr - this includes companions! He's very cool, very stylish, very versatile.
@@sethcraven2955 for a beginner Nezhas fine however you build him later down the line when you get helminth and better mods is when he shines the most and then you need to worry about how to build him, until then whatever you put on him works, duration range efficiency and strenght all benefit him in some way. If I had to order them it would probably go Strength, Efficiency and Duration are both the same, and range is least important
@@sethcraven2955 Alright so nezha is practically immortal for pretty much all content thats not like level 5000+ (and even then you can make him immortal the usual ways with shield gating). Since you started 3 days ago Im not sure I should spoil some of the things so continue reading if you don't really care. After getting rank 3 with the entrati family you'll have access to the Helminth system. Basically you can sacrifice a warframe and one predetermined ability will be able to replace an ability on another frame. This as you can imagine makes some pretty strong combinations for some frames. Nezha is one of them. General build (no subsume): Nezha doesnt need anything super fancy and just these mods are enough for him to do everything. Vitality, Steel fiber, Intensify, Equilibrium, Augur Secrets. You mainly want to get as much health and strength on the build as you can as thats what his Halo scales off. Everything else is preference. All builds you either replace his 1 or 4, its preference. Roar build: You mainly want strength and duration, so you'd add in narrow minded and continuity. Terrify build: This is a build using nekros' Terrify as an aoe armor strip + CC. You'll need at least 200% power strength for it to power strip. You don't necessarily need range for this as there is an enemy cap but you could put in a stretch if you wanted to. Pillage build: I have it but personally I dont use it as you need 328% power strength with corrosive projection. Pillage also increases its aoe with duration so needed both of these stats cut down on the mod space. Tharros Strike: My favourite build using stynax's ability. Caution, you might not want to sacrifice him until you have two built, as he currently hes pretty good. Tharros strike is amazing because its a defense strip (armor, shields) and it works on things it really shouldnt (angels, acolytes). The range is small but I use it for single target purposes. Nezha can work with many other subsumes as well. Nourish, Silence, Coil horizon, Tempest barrage, Ensnare, Eclipse, Gloom. Since you mostly build for around 200% strength it makes him pretty versatile with other stats. Currently I run: Umbral mods, Equilibrium, Adaptation, Rolling guard, energy nexus, and catalyzing shields. With brief respite aura mod, and arcane blessing and arcane avenger. He has so many layers of defense he doesnt really die (extremely hard to).
At least some justified logic and actual reasoning was in this tierlist, unlike a certain rage bait tierlist where somehow caliban was better than lavos and hildryn
I haven't finished the video yet, but on Frost; I believe with a few changes he could be much better. Understandably, keeping his 1 the same makes sense, as he's an "elemental" warframe, and they all have that shared ability. Merging his 2 and 4 into one ability, and making it tap/hold cast (either as a wave, or as a 360), would make it much better. Allowing his 3 to also be tap/held (or perhaps even pick-up-able, like Volt's shield), would make it far more useful in more gamemodes. Maybe even make it like a frost eximus bubble, or a nullifier bubble. This allows him to have one new ability, and still keeps his aesthetic mostly the same; pretty much giving him the Vauban treatment.
make his 1 cone like harrows, would be infinitel better while keeping it almost the same, you could go even closer to harrow but instead of shields make it give him armor buff or oveguard, working in tandem with his 4th augment. Would also be a cheap way of CC and cheap way of frozing enemies, working with his augment or new passive. Make his passive either his augment for crit, or like embers, but instead of strenght for every enemy on fire, make it energy siphon or armor buff for every enemy frozen/with cold proc in his affinity range make his 2 areal coverage around him instead of cone in front of him, make enemies that walk on it get dmg vulnerability similair to Nezhas 2. Or go the hydroid plunde rroute and make it give him some buff while permanetly keeping cold procs active on all surrounding enemies make his 3 hold to cast so you can walk like eximus his 4th is fine and there, Frost is a caster frame that has snergy and all useful abilites, with easy helminthin his second
hearing a raid segment on this channel is not something I expected to hear before year's end, but congrats on getting the sponsorship :3 glad helminths are figuring into this one, nice to see how the final list deviates from the livestream's edit: finished this college course-length lecture. it rly needs to be said more often what a bad place my lady Trinity is in 😭like there are builds that can work but I'd fight for her to get that rework before Chroma gets his. Also as a melee frame Voruna is excellent (messed around in SP Circulus today with M. Influence for an hour, crowds were dying left and right) with good survival on her 1 and maybe subsume Shooting Gallery w/Muzzle Flash onto her 4 for more consistent safety, but when frames like Saryn and Kullervo exist she does feel a little redundant
i keep forgetting about garuda, putting nourish on her with molt reconstruct and low efficiency is stupid op only missing thing from her is being able to get across tilesets in one bullet jump
@MrDrManPerson yes gloom is v good but u can get back to max hp with reconstruct and if u want free viral procs AND if u cast nourish and bloodletting u get max energy and u heal with reconstruct and u can spam 4 etc but yes gloom is V Good for garuda it's just nourish does it better
Agree with everything on this beauty of a list, except for Harrow's and Volt's ratings. I would give Harrow a solid A tier and nudge Volt into very low S tier (not much difference but just my POV). As for Nidus, I personally have played him a lot and can safely say he's actually pretty good and fun to play with some nice fashion capabilities too, and if you understand his kit + pair him up with a good sqaud and loadout, he becomes a beast in endless missions and becomes even more coveted for things like Endo farming! Nidus in my eyes would get a low A+ tier or high A. If we ignore the level cap stuff and focus on base steel path, I think his survivability, dps and crowd control is quite impressive compared to almost all other frames and if we consider helminth options like strip or buffing, he becomes even more of a demon. Great list and wish ya an early happy New Year.
Nidus, Sevagot and Baruuk with correct gelminth becomes unkillable monsters on steel, well also Lavos can join them cause he without any gelminth can tank and rippin apart everything.
Can you tell me more about nidus endo farming and which ability you would replace for a helminth (I would assume his 4?) I'm a returning player after 3 years because of cross save
hey people this will be my opinion of the video, spoilers REALY long comment. --ash: men he is one of the easiest warframe to get to level cap, yes his 1 is slow whit hordes but that why he has his 4. --atlas: brother you give his 1 to much credit to put atlas in B tier, is strong but, in my opinion he is a C tier, the rock men need some help. --banshee: same as you brother, she is ok. --baruk: men all his abilities reduce restraint, to the point if you manage well, you can be in his 4 permanently. --caliban: literally the same , the sentient boy needs help. --chroma: nearly the same brother but, vex armor is really good if you want some dmg and resistance in the same bottom and elemental ward for more protection, the thing is his 1 do 0 dmg but is the way to change his elements and his 4 is out of profit taker useless, in the end i would say hi is form me a low A. and for the rework idea his passive, 1 and 4 need it the most, but men really chroma is not that bad to priorities him over other frames, inaros, yareli and titania are the ones that need it the most in my opinion of course. --citrin: best support, i would say that harrow can give her a run for her money in that assumption. --dagath: the same brother, she is a monster. --ember: i play her in her glory days, octavia or revenant are like her in those days, for the rest the same brother. --equinox: and same brother, one of my favorites too. --excalibur: wush, wush, next frame. --frost: ''this ones is tough'' in did brother, frost was and continues to be one of the best defensive frames but, a comparation with other defensive frames he is old, he still works perfectly but the other frames do more soo, he in not bad or underperforming but slow and clunky, he is the definition of ''to old for this sh#t'' his passive, 1 and 2 needs work his 3 is ok and 4 really strong. --gara: ''underrated'' not at all brother the 3 of 5 times you go to a defense mission you will find a gara brother and more if is steal path, for the rest the same. --garuda: same brother, she is strong as hell. --gauss: same again brother --grendel: i find grendel kind slow in what he does like frost, but in this case he buff every one with nourish so, strong, like sevagoth to in fact. --gyre: in my opinion she dosent strictly need helminth , she is strong in base form, cc, dmg and crit, A+. --harrow: the only reason that make harrow not de best support is that he need to be really active, lucky and with specific weapons for the mission he is playing, ignoring that, invulnerability , fire rate, life steal, faster reloads, and red crits, S+ --hildryn: she need help if not for pillage she would be wort than inaros. --hydroid: yes i like his rework next frame. --inaros: the frame that is in the need for a rework the most with out a question. --ivara: the frame that is used for memes that other things, the game mod were she shines is the game mode were she is dropped so you obtain her for doing missions were she should shine but other frames do it better, low B for my brother. --khora: i would be honest, i don't like that much khora, she is a trapper with a tone of dmg but, when the nerfs to the loot abilities come in tha last year, and then reverted, nekros is better in that so, she is strong i don't deny that but i like more nekros. --kullervo: the easiest frame for a S tier, the men is a best. --lavos: he is strong brother one of the most dmg in the game, IF you know what are you doing, if the enemy's are damageable with status procs, the are dead, like saryn but with all the status of the game. --limbo: the frame ''if you know what are you doing, do it well, if not dont play him'' jajajaja. --loki: alot of people doesn't know that this moth#r fu#ker has 2 types of invulnerabilities his invis and his 3, YES in base form he doesn't do much but his augments save him, you literally have the longest invul of the game in his 3 and is cheap, his 4 makes a whole room of enemys to be popys, his 2 ,if not for octavia, he would have the longest invis of the game, by duration, ok maybe ivara could give him a run for his money in that, but in resume loki is a frame that NEED his augments an he becomes op, the only thing that he would not have would be an armor strep , that pillge or tharros stike can make him op, and last if he is invis he has an augment in his dmg become the enemy are not seeing him. not an S tier because doesn't have buff in dmg for his team. --mag: the other frame"if you know what are you doing, do it well, if not, dont play him'' jajajaja. --mesa: piiuu,piiu,piu,pi, etc strong. --mirage: the "would you like to see me doing cap dmg, would you like to see me again". --nekros: one of the S tier frames, do everything he wants, Op. --nezha: our discounted rhino, but faster and with a tone of fire dmg. --nidus: the STACK frame, he normally see use in endless missions because of his passive, he technically is the easiest frame to endure in mission with only health/armor and DR, obviously not to max level but with good cc, health regen, invulnerability, he is the '' i was 1 hour in a mission and i dont know how i was doin it'' --nova: is one of my favorites frames, slow or fast if you need it, one of the digest DR in the game in hers 1, some dmg and some movement hit her rest of her kit, for my she is an S brother. --nyx: in my pinion nyx suffers even more than frost of being old, what ever she does now newer frames do it better or faster, i thick my bote fore a rework after inaros will be for her or titania. --oberon: yes the only thing he needs is a buff to his efficiency in his 3 because every thing in the team drains it, men one of the worst thing that can happened to an oberon is teaming whit a nekros that spam his 4, oberon literally will lose all his energy for that. --octavia: the boring frame if you dont like the mandacord, and if you like it, you will be days making your perfect music and probably playing with the shawzin in missions too, in my opinion one off the best buff that DE can give her is making her mandacord infinite so people can make music with more detail and not only 10 to 15 secs. --protea: yes same brother, next frame --qorvex: brother his pillars are a direct increse of his 4, is the opposite to wisp insted off using her 1 to buff her 4, he use his 4 to buff his 1, and the rest yes, but i thing that the reason way DE give him the highest base armor in the game. --revenant: the inmortal , next frame. --rhino: the inmortal with a tone of DMG, next frame. --saryn: the mop cleaner of the endless missions NEXT frame. --sevagoth: yes, the reason why people dont play him as much is because he is hard to get and when you finally obtain him, you have to choose, play him or helminth him, and gloom is strong in the 90% of the game simply for the life steal and then farm him again and people dont like play rail jack as much. --styanax: the reactor of energy, i think only harrow can give him competition in energy regen. --titania: the archwings frame, i like titania but she only have her 4 the rest of her abilities do next to nothing and her 2 dose not even work properly. --trinity: she NEED buffs or be return to her previous forms because a this point she does nothing to support, her buffs are simply small. --valkyer: when garuda come out, was the competition for the cat but when seva come out he is a better version of her , another frame that needs a buff. --vauban: the CC frame, the hard part of him is not his build, is that for playing him you need to know a tone of machanic of the game, a normal vauban only use bastilla and cc the map, a pro vauban do top dmg in his team for finisher dmg. --volt: a the eidolon hunter frame and speed runner. --voruna: a the status kullervo, next frame. --wisp: 0-o, the best support for low levels, but still a good one though. --wuong: the inmprtal hacker, next frame, and he was so popular becase his clone having infinite ammo and a tone of dmg. --xacu: in this case brother i dont have a opinion becase i dont have it. --yareli: the k drive titania, yes, may be she only needs an armor stripe o be strong but marelina is horrible. --zephyr: the old good bird woman, good cc, good dmg, good survivability , and movement to , yes an A+. hey brother sorry that this took me 3 days to doing it but i think i was in the need to put my opinion, by the way thank you to took the time to read it.
From a point of an unranked for you: Lavos is basically a faction damage weapons platform frame. Allows for you to mod weapons freely, apply faction specific damage with his abilities, support with universal energy/health orbs & ammo, health regen, and can carry quite a high DR with building into his armor. Focusing into just a minor amount of duration also allows for you to sustain the fact damage casts for longer ticking specific damage. He's not the best by any means, but he's surprisingly tanky for the casual SP player, and require zero energy given everything is on cool downs. . .giving you more leeway to not be so focused on efficiency as you can just cast his 3 into a crowd and you'd never notice any loss in efficiency at all. Just my thoughts. As you said in the beginning that there's always levels of subjectively to any tier list, but yours has some solid points made unlike some. Good job with it!
No matter who makes the tierlist, I love seeing my main Garuda up at the top 😂 in terms of versatility she's second to none, excelling in low level content, high level content, railjack/archwing, and even more obscure gamemodes like the index. The beauty of it is that her abilities don't "require" all that much of you, with only 136% strength maxing her 4's bleed chance, and no real consequences to dumping efficiency. She just GETS a multiplicative damage boost and guaranteed bleed procs for no reason! Helminth is extremely flexible on her as a result of these relatively low requirements. Gloom is popular and practically made for this warframe, but seeking talon's interactions with breach surge, roar, and nourish are crazy good. Slap on Molt Reconstruct and go ham. Very few warframes can claim to excel in both gunplay AND abilities like Garuda can. My favorite warframe and worth the 2 months it took me to get her prime 😭
I enjoy Wukong mainly for the clone. I enjoy having a built in teammate for the odd time that I get in over my head. My daughter's favorite is Yarelli, she just zooms around the level like a buzzsaw. Ivara I use mostly for spy missions. I just prowl thru the level and never come out of stealth. When I get low on energy I use an energy restore and I'm back to stealth.
im around 500 hours into warframe right now, and a hildryn main, you know whats coming ill also give my thoughts on frames ive played and invested enough into that i feel confident in my opinion of them before i get to hildryn, gara i got her from a prime drop and all i remember when i was levelling her in SO was not understanding anything that my abilities did, i was maybe 70 hours into the game too and my only other frames at the time were excal and rhino after doing my research and correctly modding her it felt criminal that i just casually got her from a twitch drop, but disregarding how early i got her, shes not a frame i go back to, though i can appreciate the synergy of her kit hildryn this frame is why i installed. my in game name is literally WOMANENJOYER and man do i love a tall buff woman with a fat ass. for the criminally low price of 35 plat (25 plat for hildryn and 10 for blazing pillage) you have a low entry level room nuke. hildryn was the only reason i was able to do steel path before i had halfway decent weapons, she trivialised it, and her build scaling is just insane. blazing pillage makes haven useful and if you subsume roar onto her 1 or 4 (since we have clarified that this tierlist considers subsuming) congratulations, you have double dipped heat procks, and your final upgrades are going to be archon vitality (for double heat procks again) and archon shards for whatever your heart desires, faster casting speed, ability strength or duration, i have a lot invested into hildryn and i run her almost constantly, if i dont know who to run, im running hildryn, there is not a single thing ive taken hildryn into that she hasnt stomped and trivialised, and the only real investment you need is that 35 plat. absurd value for plat, you get to buff your teammates with overshields, heat procks, nuking capability, become unkillable, armor and shield stripping- its genuinely baffling to see people think so low of her, though i suppose it makes sense when these same people have played for so long that theres just always going to be a better option for one reason or another, for a newer player, hildryn is the goat nidus i got nidus prime recently and he is without question one of my favourite frames so far, up there with my hildryn. his 2 is a grouping ability that you use first, then you spam your 1 at the grouped ads to build stacks of his silly meter, which makes him stronger woo yeah. his 3 you slap on an enemy to share damage to making you immortal, you can also share it with an ally to buff them, his 4 makes the ground all infested and it buffs his abilities and makes it harder yet to kill him, oh and if you do somehow lose all your health, 15 stacks of your silly meter are consumed (not a lot at all) and youre given invulnerability for a little while, then if it happens again, itll take another 15- basically its as impossible to kill a nidus as it should be to kill a hildryn, once nidus is at his peak you would need to be actively trying to die, to actually die. Nidus' pitfall is that everyone nukes everything, you end up having to run off to some far corner of the map just to group ads in peace so you can build your silly meter, and he only truly thrives in endurance missions like the defense missions etc, but if you love running solo and you struggle with CC, murder and survivability, nidus is your frame, he was extremely popular when very long endurance missions were more common to do, but throughout the years he is still one of if not the best endurance frame. he was the first frame to have that perfect kit synergy, its genuinely such a perfect kit if you subsumed something onto nidus youd objectively make him worse, the only argument i could see would be to subsume something onto his 4, but i dont even know what id want, its such a sacrilegious idea. i loved nidus when i was levelling him in SO, hes my go to pick over hildryn sometimes when im doing ESO just because of how fun i find his kit, and any time i can bring nidus out, i will easy S tier despite him only thriving in defense / enduranc wukong another frame i got recently, i dont have him fully built but i love how he plays, hes basically chinese excalibur, twin definitely could be / should be stronger, his ex weapon is pretty damn good, but what will always bring me to wukong over excal is his 2, it is just so fun to use and is good for survivability, and i feel like thats what warframe is about, having fun. at the end of the day if we all ran volt to min max the shit out of the game itd be boring, he is fun to play and whilst hes in a similar position to excal, not exactly being insane but not bad either, his 2 is good for spy missions and i would consider running him for spy void relics, especially if i had the itch to play him, which i definitely do get, something about his 2 is like crack B-
Did nobody watch triburos' video on qorvex?? His pillars can be hit by his 4 to spread the super powerful chain explosions that his 4 makes, basically expanding his 4th ability into a massive lingering AOE of constant explosions!
Ngl Frost is fine. He’s probably the most accessible frame for low tier content. Like running constant relic fissure farming. Spam 4 and make 20-30 rounds go by in a pinch. While having the 3 to just help you in defense environments. Im sure there are better options but imo Frost is the defense frame. Or the most accessible anyway.
You should definitely look at Voruna, btw. Her entire kit works so well, she absolutely needs no helminthed abilities, and she just shreds through SP without any survivability issues, because of easy invisibility. Issues with her, however: • You cant use your weapons without deactivating her 4, which is a shame, because you would want to keep her 4 active permanently. Her augment is what makes this possible. Luckily, you dont really need to use her weapons, i just find it tricky to get around Nullifier bubbles. • Her other issue, with your criteria, is no looting capabilities. With this in mind, your ranking is correct, shes just an A. Shes just hella fun to play with. Can someone suggest to DE that we should have weapons that can give looting auras? Where we just need them equipped, and were good? Would make using any frame on Survival much smoother
someone once told me that yareli was the worst frame after hydroid's rework, but idk what they were talking about she's functionally immortal and turns ur secondary into god
Trinity is fine. If she had more link targets, she would be really strong and an A+. She instantly shield restore, 2 DR abilities, dmg redirect, armor strip, energy restore, a d overshields. She can even one shot any enemy with low duration on her 2 when applying viral on the enemy.
With vampire leech and ablative link she's kinda invincible in pack of mobs. As long as your links are actives and keep energy/shield gate up your good. I can't see how's she a D tier.
Feel like you’re mega wrong on Trinity. Her two strongest builds are nuking with viral+marked for death+ EV or consistent survivability and armor strip with EV+abating link, which are both very very strong in steel path along with a free helmith slot in her 1 and team wide 75% DR on her 4.
I will say using the busted infinite heavy melee red crit on chroma is actually incredibly cracked. With the right set up you reach 700k ehp (theoretically) and 200 million dmg glaive hits slap life strike on and your not dying for a LONG time. I haven’t even optimized it much aside from having molt augmented and I’ve gotten 147 Kpm on steel path. He’s not the best damage frame and has been left behind a lot but I don’t think he’s as bad as people think he is I think he’s a decent B but with the right people making builds could go up to A

@kyaii Rest assured, the old Ember was in a similar position. Just in a different way. Her World On Fire was nice and I recall it being a toggle. But the issue she had back then was that she started out being a straight damage only frame. Her damage would quickly fall off on anything past level 100. You'd start to realize the decline at around lvl80+ targets. She was also very niche and only looked at as being good and acceptable to bring if it was a Grineer, or Infested mission. Most of the initial design philosophy, out the gate, was centered around having frames designed for specific purposes. Every frame would excel at killing specific enemy types. That's why the Void missions have mixed enemy packs. The Void was actually challenging back then and using the lasers on the Defense mission was actually necessary. Bear in my, this is from a time where Raids were "end game". Archon shards, and Helminth were not a thing AND Arcanes were coveted as being extremely rare to see and even harder to get. The Raids were the only place to get Arcanes and you had to have a pre-made group. They were also very difficult and you needed very specific frames for the proper group synergy to even have the chance at clearing it. Trinity was a MUST back then. I digress, back then things were not like they are now. In terms of accessibility for players. Ember was good to an extent, but never made it out of B+ tier. As it stands now, her mechanic is odd and cripples her kit. She did not have that issue back then. Sorry for the long, drawn out response. I just enjoy sharing my knowledge of what Warframe used to be and reminiscing a little bit.
I just got her and yeah I agree with his ranking. Don't get me wrong I love playing her! But he's right if you don't use immolation at 90% your going to cripple your energy And if there's no targets to fire blast your essentially wasting energy/ the armor strip. She CAN be amazing if actually have targets but half the time you won't. And her 4 is very niche. It doesn't do much damage if you don't build around it and it can create energy but there's better frames for that. Unless you build around her 4 it's just not good. And her 1 just sucks. Fire ball does no damage and it doesn't contribute to her kit it doesn't help build immolation and it doesn't help meteor or fireblast. It just does fire damage and that's if you can actually hit your target. Fireball has horrible range and accuracy. All in all I agree with you and him. Hopefully one day she gets a rework. I still like playing her as she is now she can be fun. Also sorry for the long response lol.
Wait a tier list without Yareli slander just saying Merulina bad??? I was always confused when being told Yareli was bad and then going through basically 75% of this game being a tank and making my secondary weapons going from afuris at the start of having her to my newer things like my tenet cycron or epitaph completely obliterate everyone. Like yeah she still has bugs and a lot of them but I do love my unique playstyle and the amount I can contribute to any activity even as her. I can even go through most missions except grineer without hitting anything on merulina or falling off a map, just took a lot of practice.
so... trinity. She is tanky, I know, there are other frames with such atributes but check this out. Augment that armor strips (only 3 enemies but its always 3 enemies), augment that gives up to 350% crit chance, energy to friendlies, resistance and health and shield replenishment to friendlies, very good to assist allied players who are unsure about their build. Basically she allows you to go to steel path, take no damage whatsoever, meanwhile lets say u have a friend who is discovering new frames and he asks u for help, trinity can do that while at the same time making everyone enjoy the game. Conclusion, trinity is a good support as she can give health, resistance to damage, energy and occasionally crit chance and a weak but still possible armor strip frame. I wouldn't put her in D tier but i think she's better in B. Thank u for reading this
Valkyr is one note, but in her element that note is soooo strong. With tennokai and Naramon allowing regular hits in the tens of millions in SP, and Voruna's helminth/equilibrium allowing almost infinite Hysteria, she's THE melee frame imho. (But fear those nullifiers!)
I feel like not enough people know about Nekros’s tank capability. He can easily reach upwards of 1500 health thanks to arcane blessing pairing well with desecrate and his shadows of dead augmented giving him 90% damage redirection to his minions. I’ve been playing nekros since 2016 and I think he is one of the best frames, especially with nourish being helmithed over his soul punch.
I played ember during world on fire. What people don't tell you is it was completely worthless past level 40. She was never great before the rework, and the rework despite issues remains a massive improvement because 4 spam was all she had. Important to remember back then, fire didn't reduce armor and armor strip was not trivial to obtain. Ember had no innate armor strip.
Ash's 4 can oneshot pretty much every enemy targetable by finishers, even at lvl cap, so i guess the only way the balance it out without nerfing ash is with his kps, right now his main issue is that he feels slow conpared to other frames
People always sleeping on Nezha. He's immune to all status/knockdown when his warding halo is up, while also giving invulnerability when casting and when it breaks. His safeguard augment allows him to use warding halo on defense targets or basically any allied entity with a health bar. So all defense targets now have a short period of invulnerability and 90% damage reduction. If you use your 4 to impale enemies with the spears, then use your chakram, your chakram will split in two every time it hits an impaled enemy. It also makes it so everyone they hit is guaranteed to drop a health orb and a 35% chance of dropping an energy orb. It's an Equilibrium wet dream. You can stack Arcane Blessing super quickly if you use that. Just need to use your 4 and chakram on a couple groups and its fully stacked. I prefer to subsume armor strip over his 1. Terrify works well with his 4 as they won't flee when they are speared but doesn't work on bosses. A bunch of AOE cc, damage vulnerability + flame proc, and armor strip while being completely status immune and tanky as shit. As well as giving damage reduction, status immunity, and a few seconds of invulnerability to any ally/defense target with a health bar. You can genuinely solo whatever you desire. Also, I believe adaptation works with his halo, giving you 99% damage reduction, and wouldn't be surprised if allies with their adaptation and the safeguard halo could get the same.
How can Hildryn and Loki be both in the same tier? Loki is literally the most forgotten warframe in the game. He's a CC warframe from a past, unable to survive in the current meta where CC is almost useless.
Yareli k drive really needs to be able to be modded. You very much can use her k drive in very tight maps she just has a learning curve and the stuff you can do in open one is genuinely one of the funniest ways to play imo
Your accurate and fair placement of Mag in this list earned you the like and subscribe. You’re the only WF content creator that acknowledges how good she is.
It really hurts me that Lavos and Vauban my two favorite frames were relegated to unranked... They really aren't hard to understand. Lavos if hands down the strongest nuke frame in the game with easily 100m one shot potential with Catalyze. 4000 base damage with 2000 heat, 2000 whatever element you want, guaranteed status effects, scaling based of strength and off of old CO rules. He can easily destroy any enemy with a caster build. Using Valence Formation, his passive augment, he becomes one of the strongest weapons platform frames in the game. +200% elemental damage of any type with guaranteed status procs on each hit. Yes this includes multishot. His passive allows him to increase status duration with ability duration and his gas imbuement is the only source of modded gas damage in the game making gas procs to 3x damage and stick around significantly longer allowing him to turn entire rooms into gas chambers. His incredible high base armor, and decent HP make him a really strong health tank. Add on the fact that he's one of the only viable health tanks with shields and his EHP is easily able to reach 50k or higher without sacrificing his nuking or weapons platform capabilities. As for Vauban, he has a damage multiplier on his 2 and 3 that scales with enemy level. Every 10 levels starting at level 10 the damage is increased by 1x so a level 101 enemy takes 10x the damage listed on the ability. They also count as weapons for buffs like Arcane Arachne, Eclipse, Theorem Contagion combos, etc. Even on a negative strength build with no buffs you can see his flechette orbs and orbital nuke cannon dealing millions of damage. His only downside is also one of his greatest benefits, he is greedy for every stat but also greedy for negative stats. Negative strength with Repelling Bastille allows him to lock down some entire interception maps, negative efficiency makes him one of the best shield gating frames in the game, negative range only impacts his Bastille and Vortex but can be an absolute boon on maps like Kuva Fortress or Ship tilesets. Archon Stretch gives you so much energy it's not even funny, with a negative efficiency build just tossing out your Tesla balls once at the start of a mission can give you effectively infinite energy in most game modes. And let's not forget his built in faction damage buff and item vacuum. They aren't hard to understand they just aren't brainless 1 button warframes. You actually have to take a couple minutes to read their abilities instead of watching a nightmareframe video
"Here's my personal tier list.." 32:40 "let's ignore my personal feelings" and although i like your content from time to time, this tier list is so obnoxiously cute, like you cover only and barely scratch the surface of potential almost every frame has to offer. Ranking them with extremely limited parameters. Overall D Tier...
I'm not sure how much research you did, but World on Fire Ember was worse than the current one. Before she was a squishy, ability damage oriented frame. Thing is, she had no damage. Her only use back in the day was to go into star chart level exterminates and walk to the extraction point, that's it. Everything above lvl 40 would pop her (sheld gating was not a thing back then) and World on Fire would tickle the enemies
I've been playing warframe off and on since quite literally the day of release, with a rough combination of 11-12k hours over various platforms and accounts. One of my absolute favorite games to ever come out. Still got my headband and t-shirt. Used to get pissed at my old man for wearing the shirt, but since his passing in May of this year, I've come to appreciate the hell out of that shirt. Supposed to be a collectors item but I now prefer it to be used specifically because who used it haha. Makes me appreciate the game more. Was the only game my old man would watch me play and think it was "neat" lol. With all that in mind, Inaros is the best Warframe in the game. Thank you for reading. Jokes aside, love the video. Glad to see people still putting immense effort in making videos for this game. Been in the community for a lot of years and I miss watching a traditional teir list or gameplay without the obnoxious yelltuber getting overly hype to maintain our attention spans. Awesome content man, keep doing you.
Ash 4 needs to be a tap/hold ability. If you tap it then it creates a circle that surrounds him and gradually gets bigger and any emeny inside gets the markings and it still drains energy per enemy. The hold would be the how it works now if you want to target a specific target
Just a quick note on Voruna that makes her S tier imo. Her augment for her 4th lets her keep casting it for free as long as one of her five charges kills an enemy. Her 4th also doesn’t break stealth from her 1st. She also gets increased damage on the 4th from statuses and each kill she gets with it (up to 10x).
@@noahedenborg4221not to mention his tier list was on “BASE” kits. No helminths or augments. Which he put that statement upfront and people roast him in the comments saying xyz warframe is good with x helminth or x augment, like bruh. Did y’all not listen to the first 5 minutes? Personally not a fan of knightmareframe, though he does put out good builds, but at least I’m not deaf or lack comprehension 😂. Some people just find reasons to complain in personal tier lists. Even people are flaming kaii for putting trinity and chroma at low rankings even with helminths or augments. It’s crazy wild how butt hurt people get.
I was really into Warframe when Mesa was new, and it breaks my heart to hear Ember isn't the "walk forward to delete everything" god she used to be 😭Her and Trinity were BUSTED fun. RIP
You know what fair placement for my fancy hat boi. Limbo is too dependent on the player behind them, the amount of knowledge needed on different game mechanics really hinders him. I love him and streamlined his kit to bring him everywhere in warframe, from arbitrations to archon hunts. But he could really use some buffs or QoL changes to how he interacts with others in the game. A quick example of this is enemies in the rift should turn monochrome or something, giving a better tell to show they are in the rift instead of the little energy curtain at their feet.
Fun list! Gotta hand it to DE fixing bad frames: Nezha, wukong, Grendel and now Hydroid have all gone from trash-tier memes to excellent and fun frames. Inaros will have his day, no doubt! :)
Coming from the good old days era, hearing that frost's 3 is "borderline trolling" makes me really sad. Frost used to be meta must have in every mission that required you to be static. It just feels so wrong for my dude. Used to love it. Same goes for trinity.
Thank you for your personal tier list, very concise and to the point. I don't really mind frames that have bad damage numbers as these days you can more or less mod every frame to be good in base steel path. For me, what's holding frames like Sevagoth and Valkyr back is their awful melee animations. Sevagoth radiates 'cool' both from a visual and lore perspective. Yet, when you activate his ghost form, his claw attacks feel like hitting the enemy with wet noodles. The same goes for Valkyr. The hysteria attack animations look and feel like punches and awkward half-kicks, instead of chaotic sweeping slashes. Not to mention, her first heavy attack is a leg slam??? I love both frames, though I will admit, the awkward attack animations take me out of the experience. The best example for claw attack animations, that I can think of right now, that would fit Valkyrs overall design is the melee attacks of the 'demonic shadowhunter' from Lost Ark. When I think of claw attacks, that's more or less what I would expect. I could be alone in this opinion, though it's more or less what bugs me. Like everyone else, I don't like using the sliding slash attack, yet it's the only one that doesn't feel awkward...
As one of the 5 remaining frost mains left, from my experience, definitely a B tier, BUT he's somewhere between a B and a B+, arguably one of the most balanced frames out there since he has no nuke potential, but also has insane potential at the same time I found a small use for his 1 which was freezing one beefy enemy to charge my incarnon, this immensely helps when playing on controller since I was a PC guy before cross-save For his 2, I subsumed vial rush to give him a mobility ability, this is was prob one of my best decisions as the ability is cooldown and its "range" is its "duration" (Higher the range, longer the slide), by casting it and immediately jumping, you can end it early and cause a large explosion thats useful in clearing out rooms and areas full of containers, helps me separate them from voidplumes/other items on the map His 3 I didn't really use much, but I found that the small invincibility period of the globe comes in handy during some situations where you need to tank one big attack, I play vazarin however so this doesn't really see much use for me For his 4, augment of course, the overguard (Even just 1 point) helps with eliminating self knockdown and keeps me alive on steel path & above, 100% armor strip makes almost any weapon viable and the few seconds of frozen enemies allows me to have a little break and rack up headshots for an easy incarnon charge & galvanized/primary merciless/deadshot stacks Build for range with the minimum required str for 100% armor strip (Archon shards immensely help) and I find myself reaching hours on a SP survival, his only weakness is that he relies on large amount of enemies otherwise he folds with no health/shield mods
I play both Inaros and Lavos a lot! I agree with what u said about Inaros and most of what u said about Lavos. Hopefully, Sandy Boi will get some good lovin' in the future (a rework that makes Inaros better and without making him lose too much of his vibe). It pains me to say it but Inaros' passive is total ass. Lookin forward to your next year's content Kyaii. Keep it up!
ember can still Armor strip without (2) pretty well as 2 casts is 100% + giving knockdown. and with 3rd party factors she can obliterate any SP content. personally (2) is 100% subsumed its just not worth using in any way (IMO). but i think people under estimate ember even with 3rd party factors, if were talking about just ember as herself with no weapons or helminth or any 3rd party factors then, (2)'s DR is somewhat useful and you can always Armor strip with (3) and (4) is great, in fact IMO it scales way better in todays warframe than WOF would. WOF was a low lvl nuke, quick fast mission clear and if SP existed back then she would have not been able to keep up I believe the change to her kit was for the best and I use her for a lot of content. As an ember main I have so much in her kit with helminth that I can do more than a lot of frames. this is in no way an insult just I think she could be given more credit
5:19 the fact you rate ash in B just shows you haven't looked into bladestorm, the true damage on that is downright busted. And with arcane trickery, he's also permanently invisible, basically applying what you said about loki's invis to ash aswell. he's also a decent weapons platform, using his passive + a slash weapon whenever you need some faster damage in between nuking everything in your line of sight. The two things holding him back are barrier of entry: innodem and arcane trickery are a massive part of his damage And the main reason i don't play him often: he is repetitive, not octavia/rev levels of easy, but still a bit boring
I explain why he is B tier though. Nothing but his 4th and maybe his 2 is that good and his 4th is slow. I credit Bladestorm being the entire reason he is still semi relevant
I played a lot with Chroma back in the day, after a while I switched to Baruuk... and then Gauss ran in and said: You know the love you have for those two other frames? Well, screw em. I'm gonna be your favorite frame from now on.
Nyx is very underrated as a weapons platform tbh. but she needs to run at least two arguments imo to be very very good, which also isn't too bad considering how incredibly easy it is to mod her. Her argumented psychic bolts not only DEFENSE strip (armour, sprintspeed on infested AND shields!) but stonlock the enemies throughout the whole duration. Her 3 does not necessarily more than radiation but it's a 100% guaranteed, recastable proc in a huuuuge area with long duration, since on Nyx there is pretty much nothing you need to invest in a build, so you just cast it and with the evasion passive she has you're pretty much at peace for a minute or so... and then you can just recast it. Her 4 is a great panic button and with the argument you're literally an invincible tank, the damage bonus is also nice but neglectable. Her 1 could also be very useful in combination with her argumented 4, since you don't move around much then, but it's kinda useless when you dash around the map, as your new companion will just teleport around and do nothing, so that's an easy subsumed slot, lol I run her with Banshee's Silence on her first and it's just pure space ninja fun to be had with her, no weird build up to nuke a room or whatever, you just go in guns blazing and pick your targets as you please with nothing to stop you. I usually end up being the teams medic because they sooner or later run into enemies they couldn't outdamage... there is nothing to outdamage Nyx when it's not even shooting at her or when she's invincible when it does, lol
Nyx is underrated, and I gave my ideas on where she needs to be buffed in my comment. She's honestly my favorite frame right now. With like 2-4 minor-ish tweaks to her kit, she'd be an A+ frame through almost any meta without a doubt. Shame DE wont touch her though.
I think the thing people don't like with sevagoth is that the game presents you with all this stuff he can do - you get an entire exalted FRAME basically and its weapon, and then actually all its abilities aren't worth using and you subsume over the entire mechanic, and that's like, really bad for how it feels to play the frame.
