WOWESOMUCHDOGE Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Who and what weapon will conquer the steel path meta?Frames: For now im thinking scaling or nuke frames could still be used to cheese the hard modeSaryn : Scaling damage and high aoe Nuke Octavia/Vauban: For those scaling damage skills, and vauban for CC Nidus: Well he's NidusNova:Great CC and damage buff Mesa:Could be useful but maybe capped at 200-300 enemies? And those frame with insane survivability capabilities:Revenant: Mesmer skin is too good Wisp: Provide team buff Trinity: Has great survival capabilities Rhino: Possible with a great build, and huge enemy crowds Hildryn/Ember/Wukong/Gara: Could possibily work well? Inaros:Can be a good option, but it is very weapon dependant and doesnt provide much for the team Invisibility frame: Ash / Loki / Ivara : Invisibility frame are more build dependant, but im opting for Ash more due to his armor stripping capabilitiesUtility/Support frame: Oberon- For its 30m healing radius, good for supporting damage dealers Titania- I think frame that can provide team buffs could be usefulAugmented: Claw frenzy Valkyr/ One punch Atlas/ Kung fu Baruuk Maybe its their time to shine? Im thinking people might even start using banshee ?Weapons: Primary: Its hard to give a say on this, probably people will use more high damage single target weapons? Or generally bleed weapons/ viral hunter munition build becos they work well on high armor targets Sniper:Rubico Prime / Komorex Shotgun: Tigris Prime/ Sancti Tigris / Kohm variants / Vaykor hek AOE weapons : Most aoe weapons Most bullet hose weapons with Hunter munition build Secondary: Gaze/Tombfinger/Pyrana Prime/ Stat stick secondary/ Kuva nukor/ Kuva Seer etc. Melee: I think any decent melee well built will work well since melee is king But anyways i believe most teams will have saryn prime to cheese the mode, and boost her survivability with wisp, what do u think is gonna be meta in this mode?

LSG501 Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 IMO it will probably end up with Saryn, Mesa, Nova/Frost and probably Trinity Might get some variation here and there but I suspect they'll be the ones used in most cases. Weapons... mesa lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuyver Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Saryn and mesa weren't really all that great when I tried them out, and ocativa's mallet is kinda meh since the blast damage changes. Vauban and Hildryn were definitely chadding it up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caliboom Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Don't forget Oberon, he can heal himself and others, is kinda tanky, and can also strip armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceColdHawk Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Banshee. Why? Biggest complaint i've heard was bullet sponges. Banshee negates that and allows a broader weapon selection. Regarding survivability people would have to play the hardest tanks or simply be more careful, use CC, shield gating and parkour to survive. In high levels like these, Banshee won't be much squishier than say a Saryn, Khora or Nova. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrZwitz Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Saryn has no way to defend herself. Without a squad, she'll die. I will likely just play Rhino. A Rhino, with Naramon school and a melee, can easily solo lvl500 enemies or higher on his own with literally no effort. Then if you add an Arcane Guardian and a Arcane Strike or Fury, it's just cheese at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who wants to worry about having to do finishers? I just hold/spam E (my melee button) with my Dakra Prime and watch lvl170 Gunners get 1 shotted. I probably won't even bring a primary or secondary into hard mode. What's the point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aadi880 Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 CC warframes. From what I've seen, Saryn and Mesa are ineffective choices because of the high armor. Saryn needs very high strength, Mesa needs to be in max focus in order to kill reliably. I see warframes like Vauban, Grendel, Titania, Trinity, Inaros, Ivara, Loki, Ash and other CC/support oriented warframes to be in the spotlight over DPS oriented warframes.

Yes saryn has low survivabity, but with the help of wisp , and maybe some defensive frame, she can just stay at one spot and deal dmg with her scaling spores Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NyronGTR Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Chroma for bosses, Khora, Octavia, Nova, Rhino, Inaros, Wisp. Maybe Ivara for spy. Weapon-wise: scythes, kronen prime, redeemer prime, kuva nukor, I saw phage performing well too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with u , but if saryn can sustain without dying, her spore will keep building up dps until the enemies die As for mesa even with a very good build, it can falloff pretty quickly I also think that this is the time for utility/ cc frame to shine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
