(PSN)c1234567890alvi Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 When talking about Nyx I would argue that her main drag down is her squishiness and her unreliable crowd control. While the second problem is a little trickier to solve, the first could be solved with an augment for her first ability. Linked Mind Control While Mind Control is active, 50% of the damage Nyx takes is transferred to her mind controlled enemy (Damage reduction scales with power strength to up 90% for Nyx herself, 75-80% on Helminth).

(PSN)c1234567890alvi Posted June 13, 2021 Author Share Posted June 13, 2021 Assimilate/Absorb just has one major issue, per 1000 damage taken you lose extra energy. And in higher levels you only need a single bullet to take about 4-5k damage. Even with max efficiency you burn through your energy in pretty much an instant. Thing is, with a little bit of tweaking Nyx could be a really reliable endgame option, especially because of her psycho bolts. And the augment mod I proposed would be a good first step or at least I think. But Assimilate is just plain bad, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be an interesting augment and would make Mind Control worth using. But it's a Helminth ability, and this would do little to directly buff Nyx. Helminth was a mistake.

TheLexiConArtist Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 We just need another Corrupted negative-range mod to stack with Narrow Minded, so you can go 0-range Assimilate. Can't lose energy from bullets hitting the bubble if it's too small to actually hit, but your frame still stays invulnerable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
