Warframe Spy Sensorship: Can you kill a Sensor Regulator Eximus?

[(PSN)BY-51]

How do you kill a Sensor Regulator Eximus in one shot? Is it possible? If so, what weapon and how do you mod it.

Better just avoid them, than trying to kill them.

I just wanted to know if it was possible.

I'm not sure, but from my experience, even my Tonkor won't one-shot them since Eximus Sensor Regulator have increased health.

[taiiat]

they have a lot of Health, it's difficult.

your best bet is some form of Damage Amplification + Lanka. Lanka on it's own gets close tbh.

I think I've killed low level ones, like on mars, with the sancti tigris, but I usually avoid them anyway.

Lanka, tonkor (mirage synoid not exactly one shot. But still dies without alerting) kulstar. And mesa.

Tigris Prime, modded for just as much damage as I can squeeze into a shot.  Fired by a Loki, invisible, from as close as you can get without actually touching the damn thing.

To test if your Tigris Prime is modded appropriately, do your first vault with Regulator Eximi without killing the Regulators.  Then, once you've managed a clean extraction, go back and murder each and every one of them out of spite.  If you can't one-shot the Eximus Regulators, then you will have lost nothing, and you'll know not to try it in the rest of the vaults.  If you can, you can cackle gleefully as you scrap them immediately upon seeing them.

Use simucalurm to practice? ;)

IIRC, I can easily oneshot a lvl 40 Sensor Regulator Eximus with the "Loki + Redeemer combo".

 

The "Corrosive Projection aura + Coaction Drift exilus" combo could help as well if you choose to use it.

 

...And, yes, it is still almost always better just to avoid them anyways.

 

Spoiler

My Redeemer build is as the following, just in case anyone actually wants to know.

 

Stance: High Noon

 

Mods;

 

1) Primed Pressure Point

2) Spoiled Strike

3~6) Elemental Dmg 90%

7~8) Elemental Dmg 60%/Status Chance 60%

 

This build is built for max dmg per shot without resorting to channeling.

 

It costs 2 formas.

I can do it at close range with Artemis Bow, i.e. 14 arrows.

Personally I avoid them, by trying to kill them you take unnecessary risk of triggering the alarms if you fail to one shot them.

Use Dread. I can 1-shot a lvl50 regulator eximus without any problem. I'm not sure about higher levels because I'm not a regular on Sorties.

[PAX_NL]

On everything on the starchart, use a hard hitting weapon.

In sorties, leave them alone. The eximus variety has 600 ferrite armor and 200 machinery health at base (so thats just at low level). Apply 100 levels of armor and health scaling along with the eximus' 25% to 75% resistances to most damage types and you have got the tankiest grineer unit in the game.

Someone ever tried maxed power strength mag and ivara?

[TheSteelRat]

WIth bows I was only able to do it with lower levels and a red crit

Better off avoiding them

[(PSN)BY-51]

Just so everyone is clear... I understand not to kill things during a spy mission. With that being said I was just wondering if it was possible. Possibly to make spy a little bit easier/faster if just by taking a weapon specifically for them and then switching to another for the rest of the time.

[MystMan]

It heavily depends on their level.  In sortie 2-3 Spy missions, their levels are way too high to one-shot them. (lvl80-100).  I SUPPOSE with Banshee's sonar + Rhino Roar + Tigris this might be possible but it's not worth bringing these two frames in a spy vault solely to destroy a lvl 100 regulator.

The Simulacrum is the fastest way to test where the level limit lies where it is safe to try one-shotting them.

EDIT:
I was able to one-shot a lvl80 just barely with Tigris Prime.  A lvl100 was impossible.  Banshee's sonar does not work on them and while Rhino's roar did boost my damage, it was not enough to one-shot a lvl100.
Saryn's spore didn't work on them to halve their health.
Covert Lethality after putting them to sleep doesn't work (as expected since there is no finisher animation for them).

Weird thing though, eximus regulators all appear sunk in the Simulacrum floor.  Normal ones float just fine.

Another option is to use Nyx and mind control it. It won't set off alarms as long as its on your side.

[MrJxt]

Paris prime or opticor modded with corrosive damage.

^^This is probably the best and easiest way for the higher level ones.
