0 Ragaki Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 For Elite Onslaught I usually run Mesa with a Shatter Shield and Peacemaker build accompanied with an Amprex, Synoid Gammacor and Atterax. But usually I end up just Meme-Striking my way through the Zones and would reach zones 8-10 pretty consistently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 AnonumusSoldier Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Regen molt saryn with a polearm/whip. You need a Regen/tank to survive enemies and dps to keep going, and saryn offers that the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Nines.AI Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Quake Banshee if you want to make the mode extremely boring for everyone involved, for elite I've seen alot of success from bleed equinoxes going near 30 waves pre last hotfix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 deeveejay Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Best frames in this mode change with each hotfix 😛 But from my own and my clanmates experience: - Saryn - Spore build - very good at normal mode, nice to have on elite mode (health reduction) - my favourite frame now in Onslaught - Volt - actually probably the best frame in both modes, if u have 2 Volts with Capacitance build AND good timing (discord/teamspeak etc) to avoid abilities blockade, you don't need anything else to progress - Banshee - effective, but extremely boring for all players, also has flaw that she throws enemies under wall on map edges (elite mode, high level mobs), slowing the fight... - Equinox - i think she works best in Normal mode, ofc Maim build; can be also used as utility frame (Night Mode) - Nova (Slow) - very good as utility frame at higher waves of Elite. Makes Volt's or other casters job much easier and safer (they're usually glass cannons) - Mag - not bad at Normal mode, good utility, team boost with shields, removes armor/shield, but sucks against Infested - Mesa - pure dps, effectivity depends of particular map (sometimes she cannot "see" enemies and she cannot shoot/delete them) - Nidus - not bad frame with great CC (with right build - min. duration, big range), good dps with some stacks, can proc Growing Power for your casters (!) easily with his 1 - Rhino - he don't do much damage himself, but can effectively double your team dps by his 3 - very useful - Ember - not much to say about her, but she is ok for Normal mode (on most maps), personally i hate Ember so maybe someone else should say few tips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 deeveejay Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 About weapons i honestly don't use them too much in this mode (except my gas Pox on Saryn), because for now Onslaught is the kingdom of caster frames. Use whatever suits you, usually i take some melee weapons with Eidolon lens. Many ppl use Amprex, because it's good aoe and you can proc Growing Power for yourself.

0 Liberty83 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 3 corrosive projections + 1 Coaction Drift makes all the difference in the world in this mode. Volt as a nuker, max out range as you don't need much power. Rhino/Nidus/Equinox make solid support/boost frames. Sayrn is solid for the viral procs Trinity and maybe harrow for energy.

0 DjKaplis Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Spore Saryn with condition overload melee weapon with good damage and high reach. Galatine Prime quite useful here actually as you can also get decent crits, move around quite fast with block combo (Tempo Royale) and while swinging can't be knocked down. Use together with Toxic Lash, cast spore on 1 enemy at start, Toxic Lash and go melee enemies - this setup works nicely as you don't have to spam abilities, don't need spin to win and you are helping teammates too by halving enemy hp. Arcanes depending on your Saryn build - Guardian / Strike / Fury / Avenger. Sonar Banshee with primed flow + quick thinking + good melee (also no need to use maiming, just with many melee weapons using spin attacks is fastest to move around - this depends on weapon stances). Arcane energize helps as energy is needed for quick thinking. Other arcanes - Strike / Guardian / etc. At start of waves cast silence, then sonar. Silence helps a lot to not get attacked before you can reach enemies. Must move around fast. Slow Nova as already mentioned not only helps team survive but also gives 2x damage boost to enemies affected by molecular prime. Cheat mode Trinity (Abating link + Evasion + Diamond skin + Sancti Castanas modded with radiation) Primal Rage (augment for 4th) Wukong works well too. Nice crits with arcane avenger + a few gladiator mods (I use gladiator hp mod on wukong + crit damage mod on melee). Knockdowns from enemies can be quite annoying tho. Equinox and Volt and Rhino as already mentioned. Chroma works well too both as buffer or damage dealer with good melee or aoe weapon. There are other options too, but I haven't tried everything yet.

0 (XBOX)D34thst41ker Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Not going to lie: I was hoping to do Sanctuary Onslaught as Nidus, as he's my go-to frame, and the setup seems perfect for his "I live here now" playstyle that he gets when using all of his abilities. Unfortunately, the general impression I'm getting from this thread is that he's only passable. Will I have a lot of trouble if I try to take Nidus into Elite mode solo?

0 Bakul Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 i was using nezha doing some onslaught runs, because of the speed and the 3th shield it works pretty nice,also his 4th to hold a group of enemies pinned. i only lack weapon damage,need to work on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could be good with high range to draw enemies in his larva and well sorry to say this but probably need high range, maybe spin to win or at least high damage melee as well. Solo is difficult on onslaught sometimes not because that you couldn't kill enemies but because many zones have bad spawns that are far from you usually and it takes time to get to them.

0 (XBOX)ThermalStone Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) After trying elite onslaught with Mesa and randoms a few times and failing to finish wave 8, I'm convinced the ideal team would be Mesa, Trinity, and two Equinoxes. Mesa for the early waves to power up the Equinoxes, who then take turns using their 4. Trinity to supply energy. I'm also formaing up sancti castanas to try Nuke Trinity. Any thoughts from PC players with more experience? Edited May 16, 2018 by (XB1)ThermalStone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
