I didn't enjoy using Life Strike after heavy attacks, but the Furis with Wind of Purity is a nice alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk1911 Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Not akfuris so your damage will be minimal so getting life steal not sure how effective that will be. If they made that mod work with both single and double then I'd consider spending a mod slot and the secondary slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need a tiny percentage of lifesteal on any grunt to get your health back to full. Believe it or not stats have shown before that the Furis is a relatively popular weapon.

Prime offered me like one of those two dollars trials top try to get me back, guess I'll be renewing it for a couple months lol, good timing I guess.

Given that mod is not something an early player would use/have access to, and that by the time a player does have access to it they've likely got better ways of healing, I think it's very probable that the usage stats are driven in very large part by it being a beginner weapon.

The mk1-Kunai it's a literal starter weapon for a "ninja" marketed game... The secondary you have to pick in the introduction mission. When you see the heat map that you seem to miss, it's quite clear that the weapon is indeed used for healing purposes even for high MR players: Here is the heat map for the mk1- Kunai (with less than 0.1% of usage after mr 14): here is the heat map for the Furis, wich it has similar numbers of usage on every single MR after the "begginers" MR till MR 30: What about the "stronger" counterparts for the Furis, wich doesn't use the mod?: Afuris: 0% on MR 30 Dex Fruis (free weapon with free slot and free potato) it's less used than the regular Furis on MR 30.... I think it's fairly safe to assume that some players (including me) uses it for that purpose rather than just "it's a starter weapon"... Which it isn't btw, the mk1 - furis has worse usage stats: If you compare the heat map on mk1-furis and mk1-kunai, you can see a true "starter" weapon.

Butterfly85 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I have literally gone and built and put six forma into a furis for the sole purpose of equipping the life steal mod and then handing it over to the suicidal sortie defense operatives so I don't have to pick them up out of the dirt every 3 seconds.

Yeh its just a nice little utility weapon with the augment. Some people don't realize a lot of things that have surprising niche popularity in warframe has nothing to do directly with damage, it's just provides some neat utility people have realized. Even before Life Strike became a bit more unwieldy to use, WoP was always a nice way to get healing on any frame, even if you aren't running Vazarin, without having to get in range, which can be nice depending on the enemy, especially if you are trying to stay out of range of auras from like Ancients and stuff.

But I'd like to see how the ephemera looks in motion. ^^ I would really like to see it in motion too. The way it looks in the still picture it has the vibe of looking like energy "bindings" of some sort, like they are restraining his arms, but in the animation it may look more like he is using it and not that it is sort of "holding him" the way it looks to me in the picture. The animation could greatly change the perception of it, so I am greatly looking forward to seeing more of the ephemera, but I'll be honest the domestik drone looks kinda cute too lol... ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You also can heal companions if you are using the Link Health mod (beasts/moas/hounds), that's amazing if you don't want to use a mod for it on your companion. I think people just forgot that there is no "one way" to do things in warframe and that's why is so popular (besides being F2P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This singluar idea puts Butterfly85 14 parallel universes ahead of the playerbase across all platforms. I tip my hat to you kind person is the most meaningful, most respectful way possible.

When was the last time you picked up Twitch Prime rewards? If it was before this February, I think you may need to systematically unlink and relink your accounts. So unlink your gaming.amazon.com account (twitch prime), then your amazon.com account, then your twitch.com account, then finally your warframe.com account. At least that is how I would do it. Then you can start linking them up again. Official instructions in the thread below. I know the thread is about twitch drops, but in my eyes it is a messy house-of-cards group of connections and needs to be built from the ground-up. Spoiler I hope this helps.
