Hypothetically Speaking, What's The Best Possible Team You Can Have?

[Metronome]

I'm gonna go with Trinity, Rhino, Nyx, Booben.

 

Trinity/Rhino because tanks for days + CC + Heals + Utility.

Nyx for Free Win button.

Vauban because I imagine sticking 40 turrets on a Rhino as he charges into large groups of enemies would be humorous. 

[Telos42]

For defense I'd say Nyx,Frost,Loki,Nova

[Hixlysss]

A team of all rhino prime + vanguard helmets. They come into trouble? One can roar, then another...and another...and the final one...

[Stoogedoobis]

If you really want to incapacitate the enemy: Loki, Excalibur, Banshee, Trinity. Trinity to keep you alive and the other three to make the enemies blind, deaf, and unarmed.

[Morgax]

Trinity, blessing immunity, health/energy dispenser, link aoe damage.

 

Nova, 4th skill spam for the win.

 

Vauban vortex/bastille

 

Contested: Banshee/Rhino 

 

Banshee: sonar with intesify and corrupted mod will give around 400% damage boost to the marked body zones.

 

Rhino: Roar flat 30% damage increase.

[Aka_Miso]

I messed around with some alliance members on a t3 def and left from boardum at wave 30 we had nyx vauban trin and loki and only the loki was maxed and we all camped by the pod without using lasers

depends on the mission type, faction and level.

 

that team has way too much defense and CC, not anywhere near enough offense for long survivals.

 

You can run any frame combo on any mission except maybe really late wave def....but if you really want to min-max:

 

survival, you're prob looking at rhino, nova, trin, volt(someone who can reach far away air supply quickly)

 

def, depends on faction

 

infested - nova, vaub, nekros, trin

corpus - nova, frost, trin, rhino

grineer (do people run grineer def? lol) - nova, frost, trin, rhino

[DaftMeat]

One with no AFKers, door heroes, or Rank-0-Frame-on-high-end-map players.

[PsychedelicSnake]

A team of four people that know what they're doing and know how to synergize their frame with their teammate's frames.

[HiroProtagonest]

One with no AFKers, door heroes, or Rank-0-Frame-on-high-end-map players.

What's a door hero? Is it a guy who goes off by himself in Survival/Mobile Defense to kill everything he meets?

[Romalic]

ive found hydroid and Vauban to complement each other very well, vau drops a vortex and hydroid uses barrage, anything that gets knocked down is sucked into the vortex, from much further away than they normally are,then just melee them to death, ive gotten a 300+ hit run against vortexed enemies, something near the pod? hydroid can sweep it away and his forth skill is just as good and it does decent damage too

 

hydroid, Vauban and a nova with a rhino would be very good, ive gone to wave 70-75 several times before the recent DDoS debacle with that setup, used right it can make it very hard for things to get near the pod.

[(PSN)Keiji_Haku]

Ive thought long and hard about this and i think I've come up with the best team of warframes.

 

Bruce Lee, Ip Man, Cthulu and Sylvester Stalone.

[Tatersail]

Anything survival you want 2 trinity's for true immortality timed to avoid mistakes 10 seconds apart and a Nekros for loot and O2

 

If your against corpus then Mag kills entire rooms of corpus at any level with shield polarize. (see the 7 hour survival on youtube)

if your defending a Pod then you want Excalibur for radial blind, or Vauban for Vortex/Bastille against infested.

 

 

you can setup an "unformaed" 2xtrinity, nekros, mag to simply blindly mash 1 button and do endless survival till they get bored, not sure if this makes them the best team, but it makes them the easiest way to remove any challenge or fun from the game.

 

 

If all the members of your team are using stupid weapons like Ogris, then frames is hardly important.

a single player with a "formaed" "Potatoed" Ogris can solo till far past wave 60 in ODD, at which point everything is leveled to max and your simply wasting time.

 

 

and if your doing normal missions, that aren't Surv or Defense, then Any frame with a 4 can clear the map, and its meaningless.

[Cynick]

Survival - Trinity, Nekros, Nova/Banshee, Rhino/Nyx/Excalibur

Defense - Excalibur/Nyx, Loki, Vauban, Rhino/Nova/Banshee

 

As you can see there are still a few options even when creating a hypothetical A team.

[ExplodingStars]

For Defense

 

Nyx x 2

 

Trinity

 

Nova

 

For Survival

 

Trinity x 2

 

Nekros

 

Nova

[TheRihy]

For Defence - Nova, Vauban, Excalibur and Nyx

 

For Survival - Nova, 2 Trinity and Rhino

[Hawk_of_the_Reborn]

A team of all rhino prime + vanguard helmets. They come into trouble? One can roar, then another...and another...and the final one...

Multiple Roars don't stack, I'm afraid.

[Hawk_of_the_Reborn]

For Defense

 

Nyx x 2

 

Trinity

 

Nova

 

For Survival

 

Trinity x 2

 

Nekros

 

Nova

Nova and a Nekros don't get along too well, mainly because Nova doesn't leave any bodies left to be desecrated when she hits 4. You might want to replace Nova with some other frame like Loki for the fast frame part so you can get to life support as fast as possible. And you don't need two Trinity's if you already have a Nekros for healing from desecrations. If you must have her though, just one is enough. Replace the second one with whatever frame of your choice, it doesn't matter in survivals so long as there is a decent desecrate Nekros on your team.

[Triburos]

Frost, Vauban, Nova and literally anyone else.

[Darzk]

Anything has a Trinity

Anything Survival has a Nekros

Anything Defense has at least one of Excal, Nyx or Frost (Vaub for Infested)

 

Everything else is Penta.

[ExplodingStars]

Nova and a Nekros don't get along too well, mainly because Nova doesn't leave any bodies left to be desecrated when she hits 4.

Nova does leave bodies to Desecrate when she primes. When the targets explode, (Someone correct me if I'm wrong) the bodies life span shortens to 3 secs. Replacing Nova with Loki is not an option in a Best Possible Team Scenario imo. 

 

Health Orbs aren't good enough for Survival, especially 40 mins+ runs.

They're barely used in short runs and are not exactly a viable healing feature in long runs. 

The reason why I recommend 2 Trinities is because Trin 1 for Blessing, Trin 2 for Ev. (Trin 2 can be replaced with Rhino for Roar)

[Tatersail]

yea I guess the best possible team would be 4x ogris

[PookieNumnums]

NoVA rhino vauban nekros

Or nyx nova trin loki

[(PSN)x35_DOuBLeTReYx]

Defense:

 

Nova

Vauban

Trinity

Frost

 

Survival:

 

Nova

Nekros

Trinity

Volt

 

Other:

 

Rhino

Nova

Trinity

Ember

[Zuijin]

I would say:

 

Trinity immortality spam

Nova to prime damage

Nyx to cherry tapping

And Rhino to tank&stomp/ Nekros to max loot, with Shadow of the Dead as meat shield (or shadow shield, whatever).

[Tatersail]

Trinity in everyone.... teams

I can only imagine the QQ when blessing gets looked at.
