Auga3causeing Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 For the upcoming release of nidus prime, I hope to greatly improve his health and armor. Nidus is the second battle armor without a basic shield after Inaros. Inaros Health 550[2200 at R30].prime575[2300 at R30] Nidus Health 150[450 at R30]. Atlas Prime compared to Atlas. Higher armor (475 vs. 450) More energy (175/262 vs. 150/225) More health (175/525 vs. 100/300) This is the best. Higher shield (150/450 vs. 100/300) Higher sprint speed (1.0 vs. 0.9) The most successful enhancement. If Nidus suffers fatal damage with at least 15 stacks of Mutation, those 15 stacks are consumed, granting him 5 seconds of invulnerability and restoring 50% of his health.Parasitic links that last too short will cause the death of nidus during actual combat. A man who likes nidus of ordinary players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gentrash Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I just wish they would knock a couple of pips off of stack wheel. Make it 3 instead of 5. With other players around, it can be a terrible time trying to build stacks. Other than that, I feel he is a pretty great frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)Hyperion Rexx Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Like all prime variants, he'll get a very minor stat boost. He'll be shinier though :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LillyRaccune Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 It would be nice to get 1 point of Shields so we can stop getting one shotted. I know I'm supposed to make mad stacks, but I find in endurance runs when the enemy is finally stong enough to one-shot my free-life-stacks, it only takes a few more seconds to kill me for real... maybe I'm just a sucky Nidus player...

Sziklamester Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I like Nidus too but my hopes are lower. He is a great frame and very versatile in most game modes unless nukers grab his lunch. Most frames got decent upgrades but some warframe just slightly better than their regular versions because balance wise they want to not outperform the regulars in every way. There are frames like Frost prime which is just a very minor upgrade compared to the regular Frost. Atlas in other hand due it's neckless design and lower popularity got a version which design wise and stat wise much better. Not sure how it boosted their sales but Atlas prime is a clear successor while most primes just little upgrades. If they following their latest design philosophy like the kronen vs kronen prime or baza vs baza prime etc then surely the prime version would not outshine the regular one. I however would like Nidus to increase its health by 100-125 (the base) and the prime version +150-175. It would be then more tanky and viable but I wished the same for Rhino and Rhino prime which have also lower health stats compared to his tankyness.

Incongruous Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 No matter how much health/armor they'll add; he'll still be a great endurance-run frame and a fine all rounder. I would just hope that in the future they'll tweak him so that one stack gives him 5 or even 10 armor. It would be a trivial difference with few stacks, but would be amazing at 100 or 300 with his augment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SneakyErvin Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 For me it wont matter what they give in regarding health or armor, he'll just collect dust on a shelf after his 30 ranks are reached. There are just better tanky frames out there now and his whole build up mechanic feels very outdated. I cant get into playing him anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His number 3 will solve that, attach it to a enemy and no more one shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReddyDisco Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 "Greatly improve Nidus prime's armor and hp pls DE" DE: Improve? got it!, he's gonna have whooping 5 extra base armor and a generous 10 base hp /s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deminisis Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 It is kinda sad that shield gating cheese is much better for endurance runs than someone like Nidus and even Inaros when you start getting a couple hours in. If the undying passive was adjusted to consume 10 stacks instead of 15, it might be a little better. Armor and health buffs will only go so far.

Kaotyke Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I'm sure many will love him. But I don't see myself using him too much. The Spam 1 to build his stacks is far too reminiscent of the Spam 3 of the Nekros Looter days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)robotwars7 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 he'll be getting more health and a little more armor I'm sure. I wonder if they'd be willing to increase his passive health regen rate too, or if that would constitute making him straight up better than the vanilla version...

Why not increase the health regen for normal and Prime. oh lol. I suppose it wouldn't hurt, but I'm mainly wondering about the prime. no big deal if he doesn't get a regen buff at all, but I reckon if he does, it'll only be for his prime version, and the increase probably won't be much or else he'd be noticeably tougher than his vanilla, and DE doesn't want to go down that route: the benefit of primes is just the gold, minor base stat buffs and an extra polarity or two. (and I suppose easy energy in Void Missions). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)ErydisTheLucario Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 He's getting a small stat increase, like all primes, but it's not gonna be huge like you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(NSW)Greybones Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 🤔 Now I want to take Nidus into the high-level content and really push it with the health. Been a good long while since I've played him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_junguler Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 i really like nidus but it's kind of hard to build stacks with everyone on the team using aoe weapons and killing everything before you get a chance, he's just very slow at what most people want to do which is playing efficiently and as quickly as possible. he lost his appeal for me as everything he does others do better, wisp heals everyone more quickly with an ability that doesn't have a timer, wukong has the undying passive without needing to build stacks for it (albeit it's limited to 4), his crowed control ability is also really annoying as it doesn't let you recast and many times enemies get stuck on different parts of tilesets and don't get grouped together. his link ability is his best at the moment imo. this is not to say he's not a good warframe because he is, he's just not the best at anything he does and there is no reason to pick him over others in any scenario sadly.
