How would this Mod build fare in 'endgame'?

[Basdiow]

Before I post the link, I must say that I purposely didn't include any energy mods because I rarely use my abilities, as in I probably use one ability every 50 missions. So I didn't really see the need for 'Flow' and that such.

It is a costly build.

Not sure if troll with all the forma...but if not the build is a good defensive build that wouldn't take you too far because after a while there are still enemies that can 1 shot this build. using the abilities gives you a better advantage for staying alive. The CC from blind alone is enough to get you out of most situations. But play how you want.

This wouldn't be anywhere near useful in end-game. I don't think there's a single build out there that uses Master Thief, Rush, Vigor, Fast Deflection, OR Heavy Impact for end-game.

Excalibur's not exactly good for building as a tank because his health and shields are only average, and same goes for his armor. He has no abilities which let him tank damage, unlike other frames, so throw this build right out. Seriously, I've never seen anyone ever use Fast Deflection or Heavy Impact in a build, let alone both.

You know what makes a frame end-game? Ability use. Slap a Flow or Primed Flow on there, put a little bit of range/power strength and efficiency on him, and you'll be a million times more useful to your squad than whatever this build could ever hope to do.

Also, geez, dude, 6 D polarities? The most any build ever needs is 2, and those are for certain frames. And you forma'd the exilus?

If you really insist on having survivability mods, this is an end-game worthy build. Won't do as well as another build not using the survivability mods, but hey.

Yeah I agree with Exploderizer, the heavy impact and the bottom four mods don't help a lot, except for steel fiber. However, it should be good enough for lvls 1-40ish.

Here's my one forma 'endgame build' with mods that newbs can easily get from just playing the game, except for the syndicate mod, but that mod isn't really necessary for low level content. It can obviously be improved with primed mods and exilus adapter, but this is a very cheap build and it's viable endgame. Also, I like focusing on survivability as well, so this isn't the best offensive build.
