Stealth frame which one to pick

[ToxicBronze]

I have noticed some frames are just flat better for stealth missions I do realize that a lot of it is down to player skill but stealth missions are not my strong suit and any advantage would help

If any one would list the best frames for stealth and why that frame should be picked I would be eternally grateful.

Apart from the top 

Loki, Ivara, Octavia as they can go invisible. 

Limbo and Ash can work if you time em right and have good reflexes. 

Rhino can work if you know the vault (just stomp everything and run in) 

Huras kubrow or Shade sentinel can work very well to compliment some frames, but is not 100% reliable.

I know I'm a minority in this respect, but for Corpus Spy I choose Banshee. Her passive means she can shoot enemies when entering the protected areas without them noticing her, and a single use of her fourth skill destroys all security cameras.

There is only one true stealth frame.

You cast max Range cataclysm and stasis to destroy all cameras and for hacking: just use your operator. It doesnt get any easier.

Bingo. You've gotta be careful for the one or two Corpus vault types that have crewmen or drones inside, though. For those, it's usually better to snipe the cameras with your Operator. So I'd say that Limbo is a good Spy frame if and only if you've done The War Within.

Use Loki to farm Ivara. By the time you have done enough spies to build Ivara, you won't need him.

If you have the mods, I recommend Ash. He’s cooler than Loki and still gets a 20 sec invisibility duration and fatal teleport is just cool. Ash Delux is sweet too

I can limit it down to 2 frames if your like me and haven't farmed Ivara yet

Loki for grineer and infested vaults because scanner drones

Limbo for corpus because cameras are easy to dodge MGS ftw

[ljmadruga]

I know all the backways to all of the vaults. I use Limbo for all of them because I can simply phase through magnetic traps and lasers completely undetected.

On corpus vaults, if you cast his 4 right by the entrance before even hacking the first terminal to get in, you can destroy all of the cameras and casually stroll through the lasers.

If you want, I can give a detailed guide on how to do all (yes all) of the Spy vaults in the game as Limbo. The only ones he can’t do are the ones on the kuva fortress only because the cameras there are indestructible.

or just freeze them with stasis as well ^^

Or just be in and out in 10 seconds before the enemies have a chance to react.

Ivara is my recommendation; with the Prowl augment, you can walk through security lasers. Sure, she's "slower" than Loki/Ash/Octavia, but she can do the thing Limbo does where she just ignores security measures. Plus, once you both get 5 and enhance it some, she's tied with Limbo for best frame in spy hybrid operating efficiency (as both frames can "skip" laser walls).... and she stops really being slower because a ranked 5 speed is fairly quick.

 

The nice thing about having a leveled 5 is that you have a fairly decent stealth option at all times. Great if you forgot to switch loadouts and/or someone started the timer.
