So That 'life Strike' And Other Things

[Oxin]

How is the easyest way to get it ,and is it useful at all ?

 

Will their ever be another warframe Immortal skin in a mod , who knows that is why I'd like to talk about it!

 

(edit :more info to clear things up)

I just wanted to talk about Life Strike and the fact their is a Immortal skined warframe on said mod and if there will be any new mods with an Immortal warframe on them

What?

[legendarysidekicksteve]

Life strike can only be obtained as a reward for dark sector survival. It is very useful on all melee weapons, especially if you don't have a way to heal yourself and like to play with melee only.

 

Not sure what you mean in the second question.

Yes but nope

[Oxin]

What?

Well that was a waste , oh well I just wanted to talk about Life Strike and the fact their is a Immortal skined warframe on said mod and if there will be any new mods with an Immortal warframe on them... understand , now?

[RawGritz]

Life Strike is obtained from Dark Sector Defense, Dark Sector Survival or transmutation.

 

Yes is it very useful on melee weapons that do high damage. Do not rank it up. 5% of 2000dmg from a proper slash attack is 100 health/hp. Works really good with Loki/Ash while invisible.

Works great with Glaive since you can throw it while channeling thereby stealing health from a distance.

I think the easiest way you can get the channel mod Life Strike is from Neptune's Dark Sector Survival.

[Kthal]

As far as I am aware, all melee channeling mods depict Excalibur with the Immortal skin and the Pendragon helmet.

 

Life Strike is a Dark Sector Survival exclusive, try playing them and you should eventually get one.

[Karlox]

Nope. Life Strike drops also on Dark Sector Defense. Also you can get it while doing Transmutation.

[Oranji]

I think the other questions is: The lifestrike mod has an excalibur using an immortal skin on the picture, are we going to have or are there other mods which feature a frame using immortal skin?

Ahh yes, the squishy warframes talking about health.

C'mon fellow Rhinos, away!!!

/joke

I could see Life Strike be useful on a build that favored health over shields (eg. 200 shields, 900 health), but health goes down VERY quickly in Warframe. Is it truly useful on frames with low health pools? Loki, being a king of melee, may not find it as useful simply because the player may die before anything occurs.

It could work on squishier Warframes, but Life Strike will likely have to be maxed. The warframe in question will also likely have to build upon its abilities (rather than other aspects like speed or damage) as the squishies will need to counter balance a huge amount if damage from running melee only/melee favored.

Just speculation from a Rhino player looking inwards.

Immortal Skin Pendragon Helmet Excalibur is just one of the mod card models they use a lot- no significance to it.  He also is no longer with us as of Gravidus because Alad V chopped him into bits.

[Evil_Brick]

Would LifeStrike be useful on say... Valkyr?

[Allenaattori]

Life Strike is nice. I use a Rank 0 one on all my melees so I never die. Slide attack channeling and you got full hp again.

health goes down slower than shields, because it has armor applied before the damage. Especially on Valkyr, she can have 2k+ armor with steel fiber and warcry.

Loki can go invisible, and then never get detected (if being smart), and also has a 4x melee multiplier while invisible, so he doesn't go down before

 

Life strike doesn't worth maxing, it makes channeling too costly. At rank 0 you still gain up to a few hundred health while channeling, depending on other circumstances, but still can utilize channeling to take down a heavy unit quickly - focus energy negates the efficiency penalty if you leave LS at rank 0

Counter to this, if you are in a high level mission, and rely on Life Strike and Rage to survive, maxing it is actually beneficial as it increases the upper limit on healing rate. Also, increased rank decreases energy cost/health, so if you are selectively channeling, max rank is more efficient overall. It is entirely down to preference and playstyle.
