Best amp available and good warframe build for eidolons

[(XBOX)CordingMoon7789]

So 2 weeks ago i returned into playing warframe after almost 2 years of not playing it .

So i left about when wisp and hyldrin got announced, in the past i´ve done eidolon hunts but only against the terralyst and i´ve always used the first amp the game gives you so i wanted to know whats the best combination of amp parts to hunt and/or capture eidolons, specifically to do the mission in which you hunt or capture 3 eidolons.

Also i wanted to know if someone could share a build for warframe and/or weapons to fight against eidolons.

Im MR 12, i already have Rubico Prime, the warframes i have are: Chroma Prime, Equinox Prime, Wisp, Gara, Khora, Titania Prime, Banshee Prime, Zephyr Prime, Inaros, Excalibur Umbra, Harrow and have both Wukong Prime and Saryn Prime in the foundry.

So i need a build to hunt eidolons for any of those warframes.

In case you also want to share it you can also put the weapon you mainly use.

Like Gibsonx stated above, Amps are a little confusing as the community names the amps in numbers based on availability. They always number it by Prism - Scaffold - Brace. A way to make it a little easier is this: 1-4 is Cetus, 5-7 is Fortuna. For example, if you see, say, a "136" amp, that means the Prism and Scaffold are from Cetus while the Brace is from Fortuna. Here is a chart to show what each part is numbered as:



"136" means Raplak Prism, Klebrik Scaffold, and Plaga Brace.

If you're looking for the "best" Eidolon amp, that award usually goes to x27 or x77
These mean any Prism - Shraksun Scaffold - Certus Brace, and any Prism - Propa Scaffold - Certus Brace respectively.
If you do NOT have access to Tier 4 of the Vox Solaris syndicate, there is a fallback amp that many call the "Cetus meta", which just replaces the Certus Brace with the Lohrin Brace.
This amp is numbered x23, or any Prism - Shraksun Scaffold - Lohrin Brace.


The best weapons? That usually goes to three weapons and their optimal performances:
Redeemer Prime: Because the normal Redeemer tends to not have enough firepower, most people use the Redeemer Prime. The Redeemer Prime is best used on any of the Teralyst's synovias, the Gantulyst/Hydrolyst's knee synovias, and the bodies of all three Eidolons. The most common build is for the Heavy Attack, which is a hard-hitting burst of damage.
Rubico (Prime) and Lanka: These snipers rely on their raw critical stats (for Rubico) or raw Radiation damage (for Lanka). Keep in mind that the Rubico (Prime), while it sacrifices damage for critical stats, it is hitscan, unlike the Lanka's powerful but travel-time projectiles. The Lanka tends to fall flat against the Gantulyst and Hydrolyst, because those titans just move too fast to reliably hit the Lanka's shots, which is why most people use Rubico (Prime).
Mod all the weapons for Radiation and you should be good to go. As you are MR 12, I would highly suggest farming the Redeemer Prime.

Here's an example of a Redeemer Prime heavy-attack build for Eidolons. Don't panic if you don't have the mods, the Redeemer Prime isn't a requirement.


You already have Excalibur Umbra, so you should have the Sacrificial mods.

In terms of Warframes, Gibsonx already highlighted this: Chroma is mainly used for his raw damage while Harrow is mostly there to defend against the Magnetic pulses that all Eidolons emit when a synovia is destroyed.
Chroma needs to set up his Vex Armor and bait the Eidolons into damaging him for the bonuses, in which he can return that pain tenfold.
Harrow just uses his 4 right when the Eidolon emits the pulses to protect the team from getting hit by them, which tends to be fatal if you can't get out of there quickly.

For Chroma's build, it's just raw Ability Strength and Duration. Range is only a possibility if you're being a team buffer, which also sacrifices either Duration or Strength. Efficiency is a thing of the past for Vex Armor builds. You'll just need a bunch of energy pizzas to make up for it.

For Harrow, it's mostly Duration with some survivability. Harrow's 4 relies off of the Affinity Range, so the only way to buff Covenant's range is through Fosfors and focus.

Here's an example of a build for Chroma, while utilizing Corrupted Mods to minmax:


You should also have the Umbral Intensify mod. Tack on Umbral Vitality if you feel like having your Ability Strength breach 300%

I hope this helps you with what you didn't understand, and happy hunting Tenno 😉

The amp is going to be confusing. As the parts are number by the community but not by the game. You unlock amp parts as you increase standing with quills and vox. The amp is 177. In order of prism scaffold brace. So the first prism you unlock in Cetus and the final scaffold and brace you unlock in fortuna. 
 

rubico moded for radiation is what most use For weapon, or redeemer for heavy attack  but I don’t know that build. 
 

chroma and harrow are both part of the hunt meta. Chroma for damage, just keep your damage increase up, stay by the volts sheilds and run unaru focus school for the wisp skill. 
 

harrow is just there to stop the magnetic proc after you break the limb. Press 4 as the eidelon  starts to screem. Have maduri focus for vs skill to help with dropping eidelon shields

Thanks to both of you for giving me advice on this, its highly appreciated have a nice day.

I also have the Lanka and Redeemer Prime.

If you feel like it and you have a gravi mag and can use the velocitus, try it out some time. Velocitus currently exceeds any eidokilling weapon out there imo. Its a real beast. It should be build full crit with every crit mod on it as well as other vital mods and to end with 2 elemental mods for radiational dmg. If you look to buy mods, see if you can buy a primed rubedo lined barrel. A normal rubedo lined barrel would do just fine though but its extra dmg so...

I like how the fanbase makes a game that's overly complicated even more complicated by introducing abstract references to explain things such as amp 136 or Rotation C of something. Like, that litterally explains nothing at all. It just makes it more confusing for new players.
