Warframe Builder

[Stoi84]

This is due to the critical values affecting the damage. Uncheck the box next to the critical values to see the base values.

And here we are, a new major update for Warframe Builder. I updated the website with the new cool design of the mods from U14... oh wait, no, this is not cool. So I didn't do that. Instead, I come to you with the new Weapon Comparator ! What is the Weapon Comparator ? It's an enhanced version of an outdated tool you guys probably know, Dpsframe. An enhanced version means something similar but up to date and with new nice features (some still on the to-do list). So first of all, I want to give the credit of the idea to the author of Dpsframe, Gogge. We are not associated in any way and the Weapon Comparator is a brand new tool, but I couldn't have this idea without Dpsframe.

 

Even if most of you will probably know how to use the tool after a minute, I'll explain all the possibilities. The Weapon Comparator layout looks like Dpsframe, so you guys should not be lost. 

 

 

Let's start with the filters and options/tools, in the black area. The first line is for the filters, the second for the options. As you can see, all the weapons are in the same list, you can thus compare a pistol with a rifle if you want. Write something in the box to filter the weapons with the string you wrote. Tick or untick the boxes to show or hide the weapons by type. This can be combined with the filter by name. The drop down menu let you sort the weapons by a lot of things. If you sort by any kind of DPS (burst, sustained, vs faction or not), this value will be shown in orange in the stats, try it. The refresh button near the drop down menu let you refresh the sorting if you change mods. You can also only show selected weapons. Tick the box of the weapons you want to keep, and tick the 'Only selected weapons' box to see only the selectd weapons. This setting will overwrite all others setting while it's active. If you select a pistol and hide the pistols, it'll be shown if you tick this box. Use the 'Unselect all' button to unselect all weapons.

 

The second line is for the options and tools. The first 2 checkboxes allow you to hide the numbers near the mods (which are the damage added by an additional rank of the mod), and the tooltip if you move your mouse over the damage report. These settings are stored in a cookie, and will be conserved the next time you use the tool. Disabling the numbers near the mods will save you loading time, and activating this option when disabled will take a few second. You can also remove all the mods from all the weapons, or reset all the weapons. These two tools could take a few seconds to execute.

 

Let's now see a weapon. As you can see, the layout is similar to Dpsframe, it's just more colored for better readability. There are 3 options next to the name of a weapon. The first one is the magic button. If your build is valid, it'll export the build to the builder and put the formas for you. Second button is to reset the weapon, and third is to remove the mods. Under you have a bunch of average DPS values against each faction. They are the average values from the damage report, below. The shot detail is exactly what the name says, it's the detail of the average damage of a shot, including everything (critical, multishot, damage first shot in clip, etc...). This is the damage for a shot and not a DPS value, and like the builder, it'll include all bullets for burst weapons. You can use the little arrows to switch from base detail to build detail. Next, you can see the statistics of the weapon, and you can also use the little arrows to toggle to the base stats. The damage report will combine the elements for you and will show the damage with elements or combinations against each faction. The damages shown are an average value. Move your mouse over the value to see the detailled damage report, if you didn't disabled it in the options. You can use the little arrows to toggle from burst DPS values to sustained DPS values. And finally, the mods. Use the +/- button to change the rank of a mod, or click the current rank to switch from unequipped to max rank. The number near the mods, you didn't disabled it in the options, is the DPS gain if you give another rank to the mod. If the mod is already at max rank, it's the damage you'll lose if you remove a rank. Use the little arrows to toggle from burst DPS values to sustained DPS values.

 

And I think this is it... for now. Please note that I use more accurate values in this tool than in the builder, so you can have a little difference with the numbers displayed in the builder. This is not a bug, this is about how the values are rounded and used. And this is of course, available in the three languages. The link is the top left menu, near the latest builds.

 

Now, what's not in the Weapon Comparator yet and what is planned. I'm also listening your ideas, feel free to give them to me.

-Angstrum charged shot and Stug charged shot are not available yet. I need more data, especially about the charge time of the Angstrum with 4 and 5 magazine size.

-Ability to affect all the mods with the same name from all the weapons is planned.

-You'll be able to isolate a weapon and create other instances of this weapon to compare different builds.

-Bonus from Warframe skills (Rhino Roar, etc) are planned.

-Best base builds for the weapons

 

I haven't done much tests, and there are probably some problems. What I want first is to get rid of all the problems related to the numbers. So if you find any wrong value, please try to explain the current setup as best as possible (weapon, mods, filters used, etc) thus I can reproduce the issue and fix the problem.

 

Thanks for this. DPSframe was my go to until it died.

Please add the Tipedo - melee weapon.

 

Thanks in advance

[Stoi84]

I added the Tipedo. By the way, please stop asking for updates that soon after it's live. I update this for a year so you don't have to worry unless it's taking more than a week. Sometimes there's a delay because I have to deal with my own life.

Thanks, I really appreciate your effort and I'm sure many others do! :)

[Darzk]

I think its just that people see the new weapons in the patch notes and want to come play with the builder. If anything, it's a pretty big compliment. :)

[DrMeowmix]

The Status Chance for the Hind Rifle with no mods equipped is being stated as 40.95%. Is this the collective probability of one proc out of a full 5 round burst? It should be 10%

[Cyaminthe]

Percentage of damage dealt per tick of Trinity's Energy Vampire isn't shown.

Reminding in case it was forgotten.

Also Braton Vandal's stats are outdated - it was stealth-buffed about a month ago.

Yes.

I'll see that in the next days.

Done.

Please add Primed Fast Hands and Primed Heavy Trauma.

 

Thanks in advance.

[Stoi84]

Oh, more new primed mods. I'll do this tomorrow.

[Stoi84]

Please add Primed Fast Hands and Primed Heavy Trauma.

Done.

[vChango]

The Nukor build page seems to be bugged, including looking into others saved builds.

[Stoi84]

Should work now.

[Balrogos]

Hey! Today was 1 year anniversary of this original post!

[CorruptArbiter]

I was messing around with the Scindo Prime and found that the stance slot seems to be broken; If I attempt to slot on a stance there it turns into a smaller icon and is partially transparent as well as being immovable. After that happens, I cannot slot on any other mods. If I first slot on other mods and then put the stance mod on, the whole build breaks and everything cannot be dragged but the levels can be adjusted. I checked some other builds and found that they were all missing their stances and the numbers were defaulted even though there were clearly mods on it. Switching to another language doesn't fix it, nor does opening/closing the browser. 

 

I checked again on another melee weapon and it seems to have the same problem. (Other guns work fine)

This is fixed now.

Yep, this is now 1 year since the first release of Warframe Builder. Who was already here ?

 

Warframe Builder has grown a lot during the last year, thanks to the amount of users who use the tool in constant progress. Here are some stats (right click, save as)

 

Global stats

Country stats

Browsers stats

This is just a bunch of broken PDF's for me. ?

A pet peeve - Why can't I drag and drop in Primed Flow to replace Flow? :S

[Stoi84]

I fixed the link for the PDFs. You can also read them online btw.

[StickyBaseline]

The Vulkar syndicate mod "Lasting Purity" adds 60% raw damage while scoping. The damage gets added on after all damage mods and elemental mods.

 

Could you be so kind and add a checkbox for 60% extra damage when equipping Lasting Purity?

Thanks in advance :)

 

EDIT: Oh wow 1500th reply.

[(PSN)Keiji_Haku]

is nova primes antimatter drop supposed to be affected by range?

 

or is the range taking into account he ability augment mod Antimatter Absorb?

I'd like to help Stoi84 with warframe builder as I can see how dealing with about 200 something weapons and 22 warframes is a pain. Also numerous damage numbers are incorrect and I figure that If I can see it's incorrect than I'll be able to correct it for everybody to see.

P.S Heidrek is also my account name on warframe builder.
