So one of my steady, always in use weapons is My Hek, an I think that it's fair to say that many other players use it quite a bit too as well.
Now I know that many like doing Crit or status builds for their weapons, But I like doing pure damage.
an I just did a build with the aid of Warframe builder, seeing as I don't have all the mods right now to toy around with different Mod combinations.
But I did this build.
Spoiler
Now this is a 4 forma build, with maxed out mod's and No Riven. an while I think riven mods are a great addition to the game, giving some of the lesser used weapons a buff, the fact is with riven mods, there is no constant, as each riven and it's stats are random once unvailed, an no two players will have the exact same riven. (or odd are highly against this likely hood, maybe with enough rerolls, but that can get costly)
But to get back on topic, if you look at the Puncture damage for this build, you will see that the damage is up in the ten thousands, doing 20,285 per shot. Now I understand that damage is split up between each Pellet, with each shot shooting out 29 pellets.
Now I have not experiences the effects of the added spread you get from the addition of the Vicious Spread mod, but I know that the Hek has the tightest cone of all the shotguns in the game, with maybe the exception of guns like the Convectrix (it's a beam weapon and a shotgun, weird but okay) and the Phage, (again a beam and shotgun)
Now I have taken down some pretty Mean enemies with my Hek, (not using the build above, but close to it) an I almost always take it into a sortie, unless one of mission has the Enemy Physical Enhancement Vs Puncture, then I take something else.
what I'm asking is, " is there any primary or even secondary in the game that can match the raw damage of the Hek?"
any while I want the Hek to stay the same, an I'm hoping that they don't nerf it because of this post.
