How large a disadvantage am I at without primed mods?

[Irkie500]

As the title says. I haven't played in a long time and never got seriously invested into the grind, thus the lack of many things that have been added. The main question is can I still be competitive so to speak in the late game(sorties, trials, etc) without the use of primed mods?

Thanks!

The biggest advantage I could think of is Primed Flow, since you're looking it at potentially 50-150 extra energy, and that's at R8. That and Primed Reach, which is core on slide melees and is good for pretty much every single melee.

 

Other than that, no, not really.

^ Primed Flow IMO is a game changer, it made the most difference in my builds.  A max vitality will keep you in-game and end game viable as well.  Get them cheap when you can, and good luck. ^^

I have zero primed mods in any of my builds yet have no problems.

 

I own some primed mods but they cost a fortune to max and credit farming is boring so haven't bothered with them.
