Duality52 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Aside from common choices of Shattering Impact, Oberon, Ash's Seeking Shurikens, Vauban's Bastille will remove the Hemocyte's armor. Sequentially, the Vortex of Bastille will slow the Hemocyte too. Not armor stripping, but Sevagoth's Reap (Death's Harvest debuff) and Nezha's Blazing Chakram will appropriately affect the Hemocyte. 13 hours ago, SneakyErvin said: And aside from Loki or Nova other frames improve the other stages how exactly? Elytron's Warhead (4) will knock around any AI entities from the Hacked Drones to even the Hemocyte. Any pesky Infested that make their way to Cetus's gates, you can simply use the Elytron to wipe them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RazerXPrime Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I've been using Nyx, but I'll be looking at Oberon as well soon. Haven't played much, but I can say Nyx works fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a result, it can never be the best option against Hemocyte because the Health Multiplier is always in play regardless of armor value. Playing with the equation for the Damage Multiplier, one can see that the Corrosive multiplier will always be higher than the Radiation multiplier for any non-negative armor value: https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Damage#Armored_Enemies In fact, when not stripping any of a Level 75 Hemocyte's armor (1476), Corrosive does around 2.74x the damage of Radiation. ...Now I admit I'm still a pretty big newb when it comes to understanding the priority order for determining weakness but I took another look at the formulas and I have come to realize I have basically forgotten almost everything I learned in just about every math class I've taken since Jr High/Middle School... and I was up there in my college years... all for nothing now lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just something to consider besides.... I never liked him anyway 😝 As for me... Im not fond of Melee so I go with the Shattering Impact method.... I normally prioritise the drone phase of the bounty while my fellow Tenno take care of the Hemocyte so I normally use Loki in groups. but when I was doing it Solo I went with Nova.... she's just a decent all rounder even if getting the Drone to fly through The Wormhole was extremely Finicky...

Yep, it works perfectly fine for stripping the armor on it. I generally go for a full five or six dashes through the center of the heads just to ensure it works properly.

On 2021-09-10 at 7:52 AM, Wyrmius_Prime said: Or just reduce the armor so you can play whatever setup you want to. So what exactly does it take to strip armor? A specific setup! At least to some degree; be it a single mod, a particular frame, helminth infused ability, etc. So by using 'an armor stripping setup' you are no longer playing 'whatever setup you want to' but, 'an armor stripping setup that may be close to the setup that you want'. Seeing as Armor Stripping isn't something you can do with just a consumable you do in fact have to make it part of your setup. Which is no different then the suggestion that your comment was in response to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, good luck hitting the boss with any regular melee weapon. Your melee weapon slot is essentially free anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Magnus Prime I've been leveling up has been 2-shotting the heads without any major investment into any proper build on it. It should also be noted that radiation is actually better than corrosive against infested sinew (= infested armor). The fossilized (= hemocyte health) is what takes increased damage from corrosive after you completely reduce its armor. But you uhm... still need a setup when you uhm... bring something to strip that armor. And rad is never better for that fight. 1 hour ago, nerfinator6 said: No point in bringing rhino when I can fully strip armor in 2s before it's done coming out of the boil. Sure there is, there are many points to bringing Rhino even if you feel a need to strip the armor. You get Roar, plus a possible extra damage buff to either your corrosive setup or extra radiation ontop of it, and you get spammable stomp to instantly get to the next hemocyte as the current one despawns.

Wyrmius_Prime Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Sarpa or Vastilok with Shattering Impact reduces the armor quickly with heavy attacks. EDIT: Stropha can do it too, but it is significantly slower due to only shooting a single projectile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AoN-CanoLathra- Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Sarpa/Vastilok/Stropha are all capable of removing its armor with Shattering Impact. An Oberon with sufficient power strength can remove its armor with Reckoning while it is on Hallowed Ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SneakyErvin Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 No point to do it when you have frames like Rhino that can stack augmented shock or nourish with his roar on a corrosive multi pellet weapon. Even with just above 200% power strength he wipes out the heads instantly with that skill combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
