[What can I do better with Nidus]

That build has a lot of wasted slots once you learn how to actually use Nidus's powers. I'm really surprised nobody has mentioned that Nidus can get 90% DAMAGE REDUCTION? And you completely forfeit your ability to do this if you tank duration, as you have on your own build. You don't need Gladiator mods to stay alive as Nidus, you DEFINITELY don't need Primed Vigor, you don't even need maxed Umbral mods.... not saying that those builds won't work, but it seems more efficient to massively increase your eHP via damage reduction instead of trying to stack small amounts of health on him.

If you're okay with Umbral mods, try this. It has 80% damage reduction with Parasitic Link if you use it on an enemy, and +40% strength if you use it on an ally. With more duration, you can also actually use your 4 to set up a healing field. That should help too.

The Arcanes Kittens mentioned are indeed good (Grace and Guardian).

How does this look for a build? I didn't know that sites like this existed, so I've been messing around with a ton of builds. It's very heavy on ability strength and very light on efficiency.

Thank you for sharing this build! I can see why it be very hard to die with all this on Nidus. 

[What can I do better with Nidus]

I'm trying to get my Nidus to be a great survivalist with extremely high range, strength, and a bit of efficiency to help with energy costs. I've got a decent(i think at least) build but I struggle with level 60s. I want to be able to handle way beyond that and I know its possible, I'm just not great at creating builds myself.

Any advice, tips, or mod suggestions are very much appreciated! Thank you for reading and have a wonderful day/night!

[Helminth Charger Animation.]

There might be others out there who dislike that the Helminth Charger has the same animation as a normal Kubrow. I think that it should have its own animation since it is different in many ways. This is my own take on it, but I think they should make it look and feel more infected than Kubrow and not a completely infected as well. There should be a healthy balance between Kubrow and Infected in its animation, to make look a Kubrow look like has been infected by the Helminth cyst and turned infected, while still retaining some qualities that the Kubrow had. Look, I don't know how to do animation, but I think it would be cool if they worked on the Helminth Charger to make it feel more infected than it is now.

Please leave feedback, this is my first forum post of many to come in the future! Thank you for reading and make your day/night great!
