Primed Vigor: What it means to you?

[tbeest]

Since it gives a total of (440%?), the same as a maxed out Redirection or Vitality does, it can be a replacement on frames that have the same amount of shields and health. Such as Zephyr and Excalibur. Or an addition if you already use Vigor.. It has it's uses but, especially with armour factoring in, I'll probably stick with Redirection or Vitality

What do y'all think?

To me it's worthless.

I don't use shield or health mods on most frames.

The only exception is Inaros and I don't use him very often.

[NightmareT12]

Imagine if it were 440% and 440%... Saving you one mod slot and giving you back shields AND health on squishier frames.

Don't we deserve that power DE? After 400 days and 3 years?

 

Spoiler

I know, I know. Too much power creep mwehehehehe.

I wonder if the Login Reward Primary Weapon will be next.

[S0V3REiGN]

I think this will work great on chroma to give that 400 shield depletion bonus while still receiving effective armor bonuses which redirection don't provide. I will also toss it on my Inaros to get roughly 5800 health.

[Siekier]

Primed Vigor has no meaning for me, as I highly doubt I'll ever get to day 400 login reward.

[ChuckMaverick]

Might be useful in the specialized case of Chroma, but generally content is either so easy that you don't need it or so hard that it won't save you.

The window where it would actually be useful is so small that you're better just sticking with your current build.

[PoobahTheGrand]

It means nothing to me because I don't even use Vigor, Redirection, or Vitality unless the frame has 0 survivability abilities. Primed Steel Fiber? Now that's what I want

I generally run with Vitality because slash procs and toxin damage are a thing, that and Link Health for my Smeeta.

[Aesthetic_Dialectic]

Frames like nyx totally have room for all three.

[Berserkerkitten]

My chroma wants Rage and, by extension, Fury, so shields would only get in the way of that. I don't think I'm gonna use Primed Vigor.

[(PSN)dursereg]

Definitely going on my melee only excalibut.

[Skaleek]

I think Zephyr and Chroma are the only frames I use Vigour on so... Yay?

[5HV3N]

primed vigor = primed streamline

It ain't gonna happen either.

Nope

With a frame like nyx you don't need Flow, like at all because you'll mostly be pressing 3, and you want to hit a sweet spot with duration. Too long will prevent you from getting the stun again, too short and you will waste energy. You can get to this sweet spot with a maxed primed continuity and fleeting expertise. With a maxed expertise you hardly require a streamline, so you can drop that too. Then you add all three range mods to maximize the effectiveness of chaos, stretch, over extended and cunning drift. That's five mods, with 4 spots to spare. I add either intensify(to make absorb more useful) or a augment mod(although none are all that worth it). Then you can add all three vigor, vitality and redirection. You no longer need natural talent because you can keep chaos up 100% if the time.

I haven put vigor on any other frames that I can recall.

I dont use Vigor in any of my builds.

But I will definatly use this in Inaros, and possible Valkyr.  Allready getting both formaed properly to be ready to put in this bad boy. A few days ago I got a legendary core in sorties that is going to go to Primed vigor right away, unless there is some other primed mod coming out that might be better.

It actually exists though?

Primed Streamline would be an OP mod, basically Fleeting Expertise with no downside.

Primed Vigor is a situational mod at best.

They would certainly not be equal.

[Madway7]

I just realized. Will this be the first Primed Nightmare mod?

Your knowledge is outdate. Nyx doesn't need shield or health mod. Nyx uses 1 augment mod ( I dont remember its name ) to move while casting absorb. Nyx totally invulnerable. Flow is a must-have mod.

I'd still consider Handspring more valuable than Primed Vigor for that build.

Edit: Hell, even Enemy Sense would get a slot before Primed Vigor.

[Inarticulate]

Primed Vigor is almost certainly going to be +220% Shields and +220% Health. Shields are nearly worthless at endgame, so I can only really see it being useful on frames that are already using Vigor (e.g. certain Chroma builds) or frames where the extra health is actually worth the mod slot (e.g. Inaros).

1. Primed Vigor is already confirmed as the 400-day login reward.
2. Archwing has the equivalent mod to Primed Streamline (+55% Power Efficiency with 10 ranks) already. Primed Streamline still probably won't happen due to the existence of Fleeting Expertise, but it's not completely out of the question.

Primed Vitality would be more welcome imo.

Both Vitality and Steel Fiber already have 10 ranks. This isn't going to happen.

(For those of you who imagine a Primed 10-rank mod to have 20 ranks, note that with the current fusion scheme, a 20-rank legendary mod would require 41,943,000 Endo to max, the equivalent of maxing 1,025 10-rank legendary mods.)

Id rather just use "terminator mode" and not even worry about dying without using up a bunch of points and probably having to forma to fit it in.
