Gloom on Nekros

[(XBOX)UltraMagnus5000]

I was wondering if life steal from gloom will work for shadows of the dead

[Numerikuu]

They do not. Kind of a good thing they don't tbh, otherwise your energy would be shredded in an instant.

What? You know gloom cap at 10 enemies and I was talking about the lifesteal feature of gloom and if they get it or not

They do not get the lifesteal last time I checked.

Altar of blood, though.

Wisp's reservoirs work on them, only thing I saw heal them. I wonder if other frames' healing will heal them also? Oberon, trinity etc.

Though the arcane one says warframes only.

Oberon's most certainly did, (probably still does) not a nice thing to have happen since Obie's energy use spikes should a nekros cast his 4, a accidental case of trolling people on DE's part.

Also the heals from the Sancti Magistar also works and is a 'nice' way for a Nekros to keep his shadows up so long that they get outleveled by the mobs in a normal mission, have to let them despawn to summon more powerful ones every 5 mins or so.

bonedaddy giveth, and bonedaddy taketh. he can make energy orbs from corpses and also leech the squad's energy lol. 

Oberon: "Nekros, your shadows are draining my energy! I can't keep Renewal up much longer!"

Nekros: " I got you fam!" *desecrates a few orbs*.

Oberon: *looks at insane energy drain and then at three measly orbs* "bruh..."

The shadows do not benefit from lifesteal of gloom.

The damage dealt by shadows heals the warframe himself.

I use this build for typical missions (ie steelpath content <1 hour, level 5 sisters etc):  https://overframe.gg/build/152352/nekros-prime/gloom-nekros/

The Shadows do not heal off of Gloom's lifesteal, but it DOES heal Nekros. From recent experience, I'd say it's VERY worth the investment. You spawn 7 of those things and Nekros himself gets the lifesteal. I'd say that's pretty worth it.

And just to add on, Gloom is an overall good ability for Nekros to have. The lifesteal is reliable, the slow is superior than what you would get with Creeping Terrify, and it makes Terrify's multiplicative proc a whole lot more reliable to cast.

grossly exaggerated. and why these garbage shadows? i prefer to go max range with aoe heal arcane and octavia ball. you can survive long enough with a pet with life steal and 3x450 armor.

solo 1 hour SP surv would be possible, but also pointless. there are much better alternatives.

I'll admit I am a bit biased since I personally like running Gloom on my Nekros, but having Gloom on your Shadows with the lifesteal and Nekros himself having it pretty much assures he's going to be at full HP at any given moment. I guess it's not ideal by any means, but I certainly can survive an hour long in a Survival mission in Steel Path with Gloom.

His shadows can be better, yes, but I'm not gonna deny the benefit of having 7+ shadows granting Nekros large quantities of health just by attacking a foe. Not to mention that's not necessarily hard to do with the enemies being slowed by Gloom, even more so with Terrify.

I probably should have said it's very worth it in my opinion, though. Everyone has different ways of playing the same frame, and there's a LOT of options Nekros can take with Helminth in the first place. I'm just giving my two cents and saying Gloom is one of those options.

His shadows do in fact gain life steal from gloom, they just don't do enough damage to get a lot of health unless you use the theorem infection arcane with high power strength.
