(PSN)Karelxss Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 whats a good acrid build? should i try and build for all status and what should i be looking for in a riven mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 rapt0rman Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 (edited) I'd say It's worth it to try for status, both gas and corrosive status builds are pretty effective (base status chance would be good enough for viral IMO). As for rivens, anything with +damage, +multishot, +status, +toxic (remember, the procs from gas are made stronger by toxic mods, but not fire mods). Also punch through is awesome on it.

0 Samuel_sfx Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 I went corrosive since acrid have a high RoF and acrid still keeping the toxin DoT. So you will like to have all toxin mods and jolt. Riven with pure damage, and toxin base will be very nice to have since pure damage will buff the DoT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 rapt0rman Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Yeah, you definitely want to keep toxic sequence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 AerinSol Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 I kept my Riven for acrid with +60% and 54% anti grineer and corpus build with multishot. Negative infested. But hey, who would use it on the infested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 taiiat Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 aye, Acrid is fairly competent at Status Output. since it's an Elemental Weapon, you don't need 'all Status' - some is plenty sufficient for most Damage Types. your 'Meta' Acrid Riven would be Multi-Shot, Status Chance, Crit Chance. Status Chance lets you have more Damage if you'd otherwise be using Status Elementals, and having more Damage in general. i could see not having this in favor of something else, though. Crit Chance lets you drastically multiply your DoT power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 (PSN)lhbuch Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Build it for status. I have a Dmg, multi, + status duration with a - reload that makes this thing ridiculous. So many procs happening for such a long time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Alcatraz Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 There's my build, and my Riven. I use this with Zephyr about the most because of the Turbulence augment; Jet stream and high enough power strength will put these in well deserved places. The hits cause the most damage, but you pump them full of shots and it becomes a fire and forget, as within seconds, they are dead from toxin DoT. You can probably squeeze out more damage if you use multiple elements to get a different element going on there, but I just like pure corrosive.

No. If against armored targets I go HS, BD, LT, corrosive 60/60, 90% toxin ( increase toxin proc damage), riven, augment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty good so go ahead and keep it. a little weaker against corpus isn't that bad, corpus aren't really strong to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'd be a lot lower damage vs Grineer, which means you would be dealing the least amount of damage to the strongest faction out there. However you will be dealing a lot more damage to all the other factions because that is indeed a stronger riven, if it wasn't for that minus damage to Grineer, it'd be awesome. https://goo.gl/wW4f82 https://goo.gl/JAtsRq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Alcatraz Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Just now, (PS4)Karelxss said: Okay thanks, appreciate it Just adjust the 2 rivens with the "Edit Riven" button and put in the stats so you can look between the two and see for yourself. Remember that warframe-builder.com is a very useful tool in determining which Riven is better in stats. I'm doubting it would carry over so it should show you a blank riven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
