Railjack - number in tactical menu

[Aazhyd]

If I bring up the tactical menu in Raljack (default button L on PC), I see in the bottom left next to each player a little blueish icon with a number next to it.

Can anyone tell me what this number means? At first I thought it was Intrinsic level combined, but this isn't it. Unfortunately I have no picture.

Could it be the Flux Energy cost to cast their abilities via Tactical Menu? That's the only number I can see you referring to without further clarification.

Yeah, it's the amount of flux needed to cast the warframe's ship support ability. 

[Aazhyd]

Yes, I think that's it. But I didn't know those abilities cost Flux energy.

Thanks.

the Flux Cost is different for each Warframe, that could still be it. as the Ability that is chosen for that button differs between Warframes. :)
but a Screenshot makes this easier, for sure.

I do, if the abilities are useful to create choke points where ram parties enter the ship. Like Mag's Magnetize or Ivara's sleep arrow. Makes it much easier to eliminate the whole party of intruders immediately and right where they stand. Also saves a lot of effort in repairs, though I believe that won't be as much of a concern by the time RJ:Revised drops for consoles.

This has been useful in Scarlet Spear as well. Since I'm one of the rare players with full warp freedom I often go between RJ and the defense spot in the murex. In order not to de-cast my placed abilities in the Murex defense I instead try to use the RJ-provided warframe abilities for its defense and before I need to rejoin my team.
