Why would you use a zaw? The best melee weapon to use against eidolons as of right now is the Sarpa with [Shattering Impact]

It will strip the armor off of an eidolon in 6 bursts while leaving enough armor for you to abuse the radiation weaknesses the Eidolons have.

 

As far as amps go, the Schwaak, Klebrik, Lohrin/Certus loadout does quite well.

I never intended to use a zaw for eidolon hunting. The intentions for the two combos I seek are for two different reasons.

Also you must've not read my post or don't remember, but I can't get the Kleb or Lohrin as an observer.

most veterans i know go for polearms and staves zaw
simply build zaw for maximum crit and maximum attack speed (or above 1 attack speed if you can't handle the speed)
polearms are usually build for slide attacks (maiming strike)
staves for spamming combos using Clashing forest stance
 

use this site to mix and match your zaw https://semlar.com/zawcalc

there's a lot of good Lego Melee's you can make. just pick something.

if we assume you have all of the Mods&such in the game, then Hybrid beats everything, period. so having both Crits and Status at the same time is important.
usually it's worth sacrificing some Base Damage to have less painful Attack Speed. but that's closer to personal preference.

 

if you don't have access to all of the Earth and Venus Amp Parts yet, then just make basically anything. ultimately you'll be scrapping this Amp back to make another(s) in the future either way.
but, Crit Chance and Multi-Hitting capability are the two most important factors for Amp performance in all situations.

 

it can also be seen as since you need to make every Strike/Prism for Mastery reasons anyways, try things. try all of the Prisms and Scaffolds to see how they function. try fast and slow Zaws of each Category, Et Cetera.

I see, you going to need to farm up standing early for the Lohrin/Certus because those will make your life SOOOO much easier.

And I need five eidolon shards to get the next rank. Thing is I have no frames built for it for soloing or weapons and dunno where to begin. And my current amp does pitiful damage to the eidolon shields.

You could ask to be carried, you should have enough after one night of tridolon captures with a decent enough helper squad to level up. 

And do note that amps add mastery, so build whatever you currently can.

But as mentioned you want a 22x kinda setup when you are able to make it.

Should've added that I need solo builds because I can't do squads with my wifi. Thus I don't have the luxury of being carried so I need solo builds.

You can't complain about crap damage when we are trying to help. Sadly we all went through using crap amp until getting the ranks we need. Sadly you are just stuck push through until you can get what has been suggested. Mote < 111 < X23 <X27 tends to be the order is seems.

If I had learn anything from ending up in Chinese groups. You should still be able to host the game. Just going to be a fun time for the teammates. I sure if you explain to someone would put up with it to help you out. Unless you also want to add you play on a toaster.

As for Zaws, pole arm crit is the meta but really any version can be made to work depending on what you want to use it for. But you are keeping that a secret it seems.

You underestimate how terrible my net is. It can only handle being in gathering hubs except for dojos with other players. Otherwise I'm on my own.

For the zaws I just want a competent weapon for high level content. Found a Valkyr build that can bulldoze through level 200 enemies easy. I'm looking for a zaw that can compete with her claws. The amps are for obvious reasons of hunting eidolons.

If you have any Frame that can Prevent Magnetic Procs, Heal Lures or Deal Damage then you can jump right in and see how things go....

Im hunting with Limbo Right now....

Will switch to Trinity once I get all my arcane Nullifiers...
