Defensive Modding On Loki?

[CorruptArbiter]

I'll be running a build without any defense mods whatsoever in order capitalize on Radial Disarm 

 

My Build

 

I won't be using any potatoes, but I'm not sure whether its a good idea to not have redirection or vitality on Loki since his base stats are pretty crappy and he's most likely hiding behind Frost's globe or being invisible for most of the time.

 

I tend to keep my redirection and vitality at R5 since it fits so perfectly with all my builds that don't have potatoes or forma, so adding that won't be much of a boost to stats. So what are your thoughts? Are health and shields really needed?

If you want defense on Loki, Quick Thinking combined with Flow is a better option.

Defensive mods are always good to have, but if there's any frame that can get away without any, it would be Loki and Ash due to invisibility and smoke screen.

I don't use either on my perma invis build but you might want to go with shields if you're gonna be uncloaked alot

the only Survivability Mods you should ever use on Loki is Quick Thinking. add Flow/Prime if you want more survivability.

 

Quick Thinking adds a lot more EHP than any other Survivability Mods do.

with Flow, on Loki, you are adding 1080 EHP to Loki with Quick Thinking.

(1740 EHP for Loki Prime w/ Flow Prime IIRC)
