Oberon Damage Build?

Question

I'm kind of new here and with building a new rig i got free platinum for this game so i picked up the Oberon and so far i love it. Now I'm still grasping the concepts of forma and how to build a war frame with certain mods so I would like to ask for help with selecting some mods, I like smite and reckoning and don't really care for the other two skills, So what mods should I use (and forma if necessary) to make a decent build for Oberon?

4 Forma (3 -'s 1 V) Max Blind Rage, Intensify, Fleeting Expertise, Streamline, Flow, Rush, Stretch, Vigor, Equilibrium (can be swapped out for something else) and build for Renewal and Reckoning so you can at least have the option to use your two highest cost abilities, you can swap renewal for whatever your preference is.

Actually the recommended skills are Renewal and Reckoning. I recommend using Fleeting Expertise (one from the top), Streamline max, Blind rage (I recommend rank 5/6, if six another rank on Fleeting), and Intensify. Then add Redirection and vitality. Then add strech for added range. Smite is rather useless since it does less damage and isn't as good for CC. Hallowed is usually a defense-only skill. If you want to counteract the fleeting (although the duration can actually be useful for Renewal as a co stant health refill), use continuity. If not, feel free to use Smite or Rush!

A decent build for Oberon is his 2 and his 3 abilities tied in with 4. His 1 is mediocre at best when in higher leveled missions, but is still alright in anything lower than level 20 enemies.

But I'm sure with http://goo.gl/pCyq94 in mind, you might just be able to pull it off I think. With all the corrupted mods 'canceling out' their own negative effects, I think this is what you're looking for without taking out the obvious healer portion of Oberon.

Smite is okay to use as a stagger while reloading, but not awesome compared to other frame's #1

 

Renewal, Reckoning, Max FE, Max Streamline, Max Intesify, and R2 Blind Rage gives you 75% efficiency and +57% power strength.

 

Then add health mods, and Equilibrium at low level. +Duration if you want a faster heal.

dont waste your forma or reactor on him, hes the most useless warframe in this game, his ultimate does nothing after 20min in survival mission.

Have you even played as or with an Oberon?

I don't think you have.

I couldn't have made it past 40 minutes on a few survivals if it weren't for Oberon, the hallway nuker and gentle healer.

duration gives you a longer heal (low heal per tick ;) it heals lets say 500 over 5 seconds without continuity and with, it heals 500 over 7.5 seconds cca, which means continuity is bad you need heal as fast as possible and thats the reason of maxed equilibrium vica-versa work with orbs  ), and i use stretch,blind rage, fleeting, equilibrium, reckoning,renewal, flow, streamline, redirection, intensify + energy syphon 5 formas, yes i played with him along too much and if i go Towers i dnt take rhino i take him and basta radiation is radiaton ;) you can simply spam and spam reckoning all day long grineers are screwed even in high levels good crowd control,

Other way around. Adding duration shortens the heal, minimizing duration makes it longer.

Not sure you've ever played Oberon if you've never noticed your Renewal lasts 25 seconds.

So I was messing around on the warframe builder and ended up with this http://goo.gl/EHi9iI is this a good build? or is there something to be improved on? I know 3 forma is a bit of work but I'm willing to do it if I get a thumbs up for this.

 

Drop Blind Rage to Rank 7.

Swap Redirection for Vitality. (About the same EHP either way but get better efficiency out of Renewal if you have a larger pool to heal, plus grab more health orbs to convert to energy).

Swap Flow for Equilibrium.

Spam 4 FTW.

 

 

That's a Troll, right?

Move the - forma under Fleeting Expertise so it overwrites an ability slot, and put Equil in that.

Edit: I would also forma again to get the aura polarity to -, for Corrosive Projection for Grineer/Void and Energy Siphon or Enemy Sense for Corpus/Infested.

http://goo.gl/s0rLO5

 

Also if you like Renewal, can swap Equilibrium for Constitution for ~11 more health per second, but I think the health gained from energy orbs will restore more than that over time, not to mention the constant energy restore from health orbs.

Ok thanks, quick question though, i understand that lowering blind rage will allow me to use reckoning 3 times as opposed to 2 with blind rage at max (which i have room for) but is it really more effective? I mean if i use it 2 times with fully ranked blind rage then collect orbs it would work out the same wouldnt it?

But 3 uses at 202% power strength is more damage, and longer CC, than 2 uses at 129% power strength.

 

Really for max damage/energy you want to drop it all the way to Rank 2, to get 75% energy efficiency, but that nerf's Renewal into the ground.
