reason why i dont use it is cuz i want its prime which still doesent exist T-T

[@TheDoomsdayzoner]

Well, Gloom is good, but not OP. Remember, Eximus and Nullifier units still exist. Also things like Eclipse, Roar and Nourish still exist. It's just that Gloom synergises well with Melee-based frames, or frames that profit from Melee(Nekros' multi-corpse bug still works with his Desecrate, that's why he still loves his meat MINCED) Other than that, it's just Sevagoth's ability combos being Meh, his shadow being too cumbersome and him being kinda weak in terms of tankyness(that small HP pool makes Nekros and Yareli look like Inaros). Honestly, give us an augment for Shadow to follow us and attack/cast abilities like Umbra does, and I'd show ya some insane stuff.

[@ethanfrese1995]

Thank you for taking the time to make such an in-depth video on my favorite warframe. Until we get an actual werewolf frame, He's probably gonna stay my main. I've always personally hated the helminth system due to how it undermines the themes of each warframe and the way the system undermined Sevagoth only made this worse. A bit of a question I have for you, what is your opinion on how warframe handles firearms? To me, current state of the game makes guns feel more like complicated number generators rather than actual weapons. I understand there needs to be a way to make the game harder, but I still think bullets should be bullets. Long story short, I was curious if you think this works well for warframe or if it should be changed to eliminate a lot of the frustrations new players face when getting into the game. Thank you again for your efforts, this content is amazing.

One of my biggest gripes with Sevagoth is the need to forma 3 different items to fit everything on. You have to forma the frame, the shadow, AND the claws if you want to fully optimize him. The amount of leveling and forma required is insane and really highlighted the issue of building up exalted weapons. I don't know why you can't put a free forma onto them when you forma the frame itself.

[@awrebyawe]

Yeah that's why I don't play him even though I love the frame and design. Waiting for the prime before I go all in with umbral forma etc.

Sevegoth is also a forma devourer. To really squeeze the best out of all his kit, you're going to want like 3 forma on sevegoth, 3 on the shadow, and 3 on the claws. He just doesn't feel worth that many forma for the limitations he has, and the difficulty farming him. Sevegoth's first augment mod, if they ever give him one, should be one that lets the energy in his non equipped form, regenerate while in the other form. It became tedious to leave shadow, and then later return to shadow, and realize you've got like 5 energy and can't use any powers yet, or you swap back to sevegoth, and face the same problem. That would make him more appealing right there, because its easy to forget where an alt forms energy pool left off, while you're running around killing stuff in another form.

You are alone, so you need all the tank layers that you have, on top of obvious Shield of Shadows + Adaptation combo.

The worst bug I ever encountered as a Sevagoth main is the tendency of his shadow to not spawn when he's downed. The tombstone he's supposed to turn into doesn't appear either.

He is one of my favorite frames in the game I find his aesthetics and gameplay really fun and can’t wait for his prime or an augment to come out for my spooky boi

[@SupermegaFredFredBurger]

Another note is that Sevagoth's shadow is unaffected by nullifier's bubble however if you're in shadow form and Sevagoth himself is in the nullifier's bubble it will kick you out of shadow form.

[@Reapz8888]

I absolutely loved Sevagoth when he was released, so much so that he’s still my number 1 most used frame even after months of not playing him. His design, theme and exalted form are all very cool and unique. He definitely has some good things going for him too being Gloom, his passive, and his extremely powerful shadow form/claws. The reason I stopped liking him so much is his performance. I just don’t like the way he wants to be built and I think other frames can both utilize Gloom better and accomplish tasks better. He wants heavy investment into strength but also needs at least a little bit of every other stat which really limits the builds imo. I always subsume off Sow because that’s his most useless ability, but there aren’t really any helminth ability synergies that he can do something new or special with. He’s also very energy hungry and even with arcane energize it can be hard to maintain. To be fair, the archon shard system and armor strip buffs have probably diversified his building a bit so I’ll have to revisit him some time. I would realllllly like to see Sevagoth get some augment mods because I think that could potentially bring something new and exciting for him.

[@davidm.schreckii1426]

I Wana add to what you all said also. And for his fourth ability being that Warframe is a fast paced game when I first got to using his shadow form I had a second thought like wait it's a shadow shouldn't shadows be fast? Like wulongd most ability and then I thought to myself why didn't they just go with an all melee titania thing where he basically flies around like an archwing in mission but can only use his claws, meaning melee only? Then at least he could keept up with other frames if playing multiplayer idk I think they rushed his kit cuz as a Warframe himself I think took a long time to create he really needs a touch up or reword on his abilities cuz I absolutely went berserk when I first saw him, like you I want to main the crap outta him but his performance falls flat and he is immensely energy hungry it's rediculous cuz all of his abilities need eachother to make the most of the abilities and that requires much more energy which isn't fair, honestly after they made lavos I was kinda hoping they would start integrating more cool down abilities in other Warframes but alas has not happened

[@knight7396]

I got a tauforged amber archon shard for extra energy pickup, very very very nice to have. Honestly never really have energy problems. Edit: Also I don't even have arcane energize either.

[@THERATSANDTHERATS]

Sevagoth is to me one of the most intresting and more complex frames in the game, also lore wise he is VERY intresting with his whole "I may be gods most edgy boy but I actually saved lives of many MANY people from voud stroms and hostile pirates out in space with my railjack, the Tempistari." And I like his quest was about putting him to rest. His kit is super duper cool but again its a little odd, Its like Baruuk but if instead of Baruuk getting to become a air bender instead he activates his four and Valkyr with good abilities just popped out and went ham. Also he suffers a lot from issue of most frames do his job with less setup, are easier to get and can feel more fun. Also having to play railjack for most people makes him a pain to get but I happen to LOVE railjack and even with all my time in Railjack I've barely actually seen his parts, he is kinda unnecessarily a pain to get. All in all, cool frame, Ima stick to Baruuk memes Edit: Sleeping in the cold below fucking SMACKS and the Tempistari skin SMACKS and also Gloom is good on everyone

[@felix_patriot]

Reap and Sow shouldn't be separate abilities. One should be on tap, the other on hold. It feels like we've regressed all the way back to Ember's Accelerant days, the way one ability serves entirely to buff another. If Sevagoth could've had either a movement ability, or a tanking ability in that slot instead, he'd catch up to the meta.

[@Duke_ofGames]

I put 17 forma into my sevagoth. I love the theme and playstyle that much. I went from a combo build on his shadow to a heavy attack build. I pretty much play as a regular frame but switch to shadow for a quick kill on a heavy unit. I like him a lot on disruption missions or against acolytes.

[@damir_van_kalaz]

Problem is, a lot of frames go largely ignored at this point, and that's not just because of how many options there are now, but because of how quickly they've been throwing them out. Until around 2018 or so, seeing a new frame be announced was an exciting occasion that got the whole community hyped over it, and it was always something that you could tell they put a lot of work and thought into. Nowadays, they just casually announce a frame on every other devstream, and generally have anywhere between 3 and 4 of them in development at once. Half the time, you can't even tell what the theme of the frame is even supposed to be, as they just throw seemingly randomly selected powers together, give it yet another super cluttered design, and call it a day. Warframes used to be developed with a quality over quantity mindset, and now it's the other way around. Sure, you'll still see the occasional new frame that's really unique and has good abilities, but for the most part what we usually get these days is just frames that either just do the same things the older frames already do and do better, or they do something unique that is so incredibly situational or impractical that nobody bothers trying to use it over the simpler and often more effective options the game offers. It really doesn't help either that they've been slowly making each new frame even more of a grind to obtain than the last, and most players aren't going to waste their time grinding for something that isn't even all that extraordinary. DE just needs to dial back on pumping out new warframes left and right, only adding one when they actually have a really good idea instead of trying to throw out something new whether they've got a good idea or not just for the sake of having a new frame to announce. Though, DE's commitment to prioritizing hype generation at all costs is something that negatively affects every aspect of this game, not just the warframes, and it has for years now.

AND left there. Really can't bother to finish the grind to unlock even the New War, new content really isn't worth grinding for, there's no reason for me to keep going after having reached mr30.

You don't have to do that unless you're a perfectionist/or sometimes the base frame is better if you're a perfectionist.

[@BudderDog]

I think gloom should not drain main sevagoths energy while you're in shadow. It's annoying and needlessly frigid. You're asked to keep track of an energy bar you can't see while also piloting shadow, not to mention shadow consuming energy pickups. If you ever get carried away slicing enemies up with shadow (the fun part!!), gloom turns off which means you instantly transform from deadly to without energy. And since shadow ate all the energy drops, you have no way of getting any, so your best bet is a pizza, which isn't fast enough, and has a cooldown in SP, so you just kinda die. Not to mention you don't have any weapon arcanes or buffs stacked up. So there you are, doing unbuffed damage to a growing horde, all because you dared use your fun ability. Maybe voruna subsume could help with this, idk, but I wish sevagoth and shadow shared energy or got somw other energy management buffs.

[@renkuroex3548]

Sleeping in the cold below is a banger though

[@theabysswalker114]

I would happily main him as his design is already so cool and the lore and all but one thing that discourages me is the nature of the helminth system as consumed warframes are gone gone plus knowing that every warframe will have its prime variant with no exception as we saw with Valkyr and Nidus, we cannot transfer forma not even reactors from non-prime to prime variants (not that I'm asking to) but I'm just not gonna put in the effort to build him now when a better variant is confirmed in what 2 years, maybe I am the problem but that's how I see it, the farming is fine at least for me, I have enough parts to build what 3 sevagoths bc I sometimes do skirmish void storms to farm intrinsics, I do use some non-primed warframes(mainly Lavos and Wisp) but with minimum effort so a reactor is all they get, I think one more thing that helped discouraging people from using Sevagoth is the fact that he doesn't have any aura polarity as that's basically a mandatory forma sry for any grammatical errors btw, english is my 3rd language and I'm still learning

The obvious gripe would be having to forma Sevagoth himself, his Shadow and the Claws to optimize everything though.

I started playing about 200 days ago, and didn't get Sevagoth until shortly before the Prime access. I really liked him, but subsumed that one, waited, and bought the Prime access day one with saved up birthday money. I love him immensely. Enough so that I worked hard to grind relics for my friend who didn't buy the access (but still wanted him) so she'd have him, Epitaph Prime, and Nautilus Prime.

I'm a (Wraith) Sevagoth main, got 33% usage and 150m experience on him. Main reasons I play him are for the edginess but I also like being able to build his base form and ghost form differently. I build his base form for the max gloom slow of 95% and his ghost form for range and duration. A cool thing to note is that the archon shards put on his base form also affect his ghost form. I think if DE nerfed the gloom subsume ability to take away either the slow or heal, sevagoth may become more popular.

[@ddraigtheonion]

I forgot about Caliban way faster than Sevagoth

[@KyokujiFGC]

Honestly, the biggest issue is just what a giant pain in the ass to he is to get.

[@MagikarpMan]

No it's that his best ability can be used on any1 else

[@theEquYnoX]

I agree. The Sevagoth is a under used frame (and gloom is over used ability). Two builds that I like to run are a Breach Surge, Reap and Sow nuke build ( %based damage creating damage multiplied sparks hiting -DR targets is nice. ) and a Nourish + Gloom stun lock build. (Used to be Piecing Roar but Nourish does similar and has increased energy management)

[@Sov92]

Thought you should know that grind hard squad just pretty much copied your video.

[@NovaUmbral]

Thanks for letting me know

[@drakircastrohawkes1616]

He’s been copying many people’s videos lately. The textbook definition of a parasite.

[@iD0mino]

Found your channel 2 days ago and i have watched all your warframe videos. Love the content, even though i don't play warframe anymore. Keep it up man.

[@reorseX]

requires too much investment to get good and even then he is just mediocre

[@NovaUmbral]

The trade off is not worth sadly, despite having a fully organized kit and abilities, he does need that extra push to become more popular and used

[@basedlordprime]

After having watched more of the video you have earned my sub. I've played one and off since the closed alphas and this video was very well put together.

[@NovaUmbral]

Glad you liked the video

[@moondog548]

I leveled Sevagoth and never really struggled playing him in the content but... I absolutely have never understood what his kit was all about. I never "got" him. So very grateful for this particular vid!

[@NatsukashiiRose_GG]

As a Garuda main I'm really interested in Sevagoth who will soon become my second main

[@JhaanUmbra-zl3qp]

Sevagoth main reporting to duty!

[@noodlecup244]

I feel like a big reason he isn't used nowadays is because of the massive Forma investment. Being a non-prime, a tank build usually takes 5-6 forma. With more forma needed to be invested into his Claws and Shadow, it's enough to turn most casual players away, especially with the fact it takes a day to craft each forma.

[@StuckTrippin]

Sell 2 frame sets, buy 5 of the 3 forma bundles for 175p, done. Or if you've got the blueprints stashed, 150p to rush all the forma, done. Can have all the forma you need in one afternoons effort 👌

[@beaawsome2211]

Yeah forgotten... -looks over my heavily formad beast that kills everything and idk how-

[@GlavestoneCarnston]

As an Inaros main, I cry every day.

[@MrDani3lsan]

What isnt mentioned is that both sets of arcanes are active all the time. Both main and shadow arcanes. Having 4 arcanes adds a lot of power.

[@adarkwind4712]

F-cking excuse me. . . Are you serious?

[@MrDani3lsan]

@@adarkwind4712 Yeah, you can test it. It says it shouldn't / doesn't. But it really does.

[@lykonic1763]

Honestly while I agree that Gloom being an amazing Subsumable ability really kicks Sevagoth where it hurts, I'm also glad that such a good ability is subsumable. I don't want it to be removed or changed to no longer be his Subsume, I'd just like to see his other abilities brought up to speed to make him worth using on his own, rather than just Helminth fodder to get his 3. He is honestly a really interesting frame with neat abilities, but I agree that some parts of his kit could/should be buffed or changed in some way to further enhance them and their synergy with one another. It'd probably be pretty easy to overdo it and suddenly turn him from a sleeper into a meta monster, but surely it could be implemented and tweaked over a few patches to make him formidable on his own without making him blatantly OP.

[@voltaicwinter9327]

And yet when his Prime releases everyone will sing his praises and say "oh yeah I've been a Sevagoth main this whole time!" 🙄

[@IonScrapper]

Heya, one of all 4 sevagoth mains here! This video is honestly incredible and perfectly addresses a lot of issues he indeed has, its great to see someone take the time and effort to delve into the topic and discuss the why and how about my favourite ghost. I've been able to outperformed many meta dps frames and even tanks with how I have mine built but it is undeniable that the resource cost to get there was high, even without taking into account railjack. For my I found it to be very much worth it and love messing with his kit and unique playstyle, even if its very unconventional. Thinking about it now even his prime will be equally expensive since the parts will most likely require railjack resources much like his base parts, and you still need to run relic farming AND cracking. Part of me wonders if DE will address it or not, though either way I'm content enough with my sevagoth. (Also small note for those who noticed the passive bug in this video, it was fixed in citrines last wish so no need to worry!)

[@noahhkun5097]

He isn’t used because he’s a pain to farm once, let alone twice since gloom is jus objectively better to have in helminth than on him

[@a.b.3455]

Farming him for the first time is considerably easier as you don't need to buy the BP from simaris.

[@davidsterling7570]

Finally, only took four years but I found a Warframe video with Sonic music

[@Yesnaught]

This video sold me. Bought Sev, and it was absolutely worth it. Cannon fodder is just food for the well with extra steps, and his shadow can be a get out of trouble free card on a regular basis.

[@TIX3L.]

Im using him, one of my mosted used warframe. And to your reasons ill also point out high upgrde cost because you need to forma him, shadow and claws

[@McRib29800]

I love how you made this and immediately… a day after, Grindhardsquad made a video copying it… I hope yours gets more recognition cus of the work you put into it.

[@KingMasteron1]

I think I remember reading somewhere that the gladiator DOES work, *if* it is bult up on sevagoth himself rather than his shadow. I haven't tested it myself yet though. It's also in the realm of "probably unintended behavior that's been around forever but could be patched out at any second"

[@mastercontrol981]

I think Sevagoth's big problem is the lack of oomph between his reap and sow synergy. You have to spam his 1 over and over again to get value out of it, and it feels very unpleasant. His best power, his 3, is subsumable. He requires a metric ton of forma to properly invest in, and is obtained from Railjack. He's just doomed to not be played much.

[@AMHuang_]

Every time I see a Sevagoth video it makes me wanna play Warframe again. And then I open up the star chart and it all comes flooding back to me…

[@Seven7swords]

I would argue Void Storms are one of the most rewarding farms in the game. It gives relics, void traces, keys for tenant weapons, cracks relics, and a warframe part.

[@khoidok258]

Sevagoth is so great that players strive to play railjack, get to veil missions, grind veil relic runs. It's such an accomplishment when acquiring him, max him and subsume him to get gloom to use on other frames😎

[@Elite_Reverser]

Can you do another video now that he’s gained popularity and has gotten himself some augments?

[@84m30]

The real question is who tf has the camera over the left shoulder?

[@DaSharkCraftMC]

I have mained Sevagoth and have since his release. His constant bugs and some issues with how his stats are really work against people trying to get to learn him. Not even the Naramon passive works for his shadow making it really hard to justify him to people who like exalted weaponry. That being said, I will remain firm and main him until he gets a prime.

[@davidm.schreckii1426]

I am honestly praying his prime form looks more like his concept art cuz his concept art was sooooo sick, and maybe a rework or touch up on his abilities, big time

[@DaSharkCraftMC]

@@davidm.schreckii1426 I too, am waiting for the prime. Currently working on stockpiling forma and MR levels. Ability rework wouldn't be bad but I personally think gloom in the helminth should be altered to not be as strong as it is on Sevagoth.

[@sentientsickness]

My spooky boi, my absolute favorite Warframe I definitely agree with most of the buff ideas I think when (not if) subsume gloom gets nerfed Sev will be in a better spot, some cosmetics would also help Also for newer Sev players, out rolling guard on the shadow it makes surviving easier, and make the passive guaranteed revives as long as there are enemies around

[@Kelanich]

Can't wait for you to review my favorite Warframe that no one plays - Octavia! She's so fucking busted and yet there's barely anyone running her. Oh, and she has the best Tennogen skin that turns her basically into Hatsune Miku.

[@dinogabric8054]

love these videos, warframe documentaries hell yeah

[@Pikana]

As an Inaros main, that flicker of him near the end hit hard.

[@christianmsequijor]

lmao just found your video about how sevagoth is underrated, I just got him right after I finished the tempestarii quest and looked up on how to use him

[@Lui2D2]

To be fair, I also don't see a lot of Gyre either since Styanax dropped

[@marxytheoni]

Good to know I'm the only Sevagoth main in the game lol He is still my favorite frame in the game

[@kimy770]

This video got recomended to me right after Sevagoth got a Prime version lol Hope he gets some love

[@AntonioCunningham]

The sole reason I don't have Wukong is because he's clan exclusive. I hate the concept of begging others for help and I can't join my friend's dojo because he's on a platform I refuse to play warframe on (switch) So I'd probably get this frame before Wukong... But then again...I'm new to warframe and only started because of cross play.

[@demonic9054]

Sevagoth has been my main since he came out, wasn't aware everyone forgot about my boi

[@N1ght2098]

If I had a choice on how to increase sevagoths popularity, I'd probably buff the reap+ sow combo probably to make it deal percent hp scaled off strength or make it deal viral damage instead of rad. If it was percent based (scaled off strength to a cap where at X amount of strength the 2 powers can combine and make a 1+2 punch that scales) there would be dmg fall off to counteract him nuking the entire map. If it was made to deal viral instead of rad, it wouldn't need falloff anymore and could potentially scale well into the kit considering it deals true dmg already and grants dmg vulnerability. DE could go the grendel or voruna route where a cast of sow (cause theming) plants 5 or 10 stacks of viral onto enemies in a certain radius scaled by range, then reap granting the dmg vulnerability debuff and allowing the frame to still 1+2 punch nuke. There could also be an augment released for his 4 that turns it into a melee only wuclone with full range of abilities. Maybe a hold to cast and tap to turn into the shadow could work.

[@RagingKarma2]

I guess you can say with sevavoths play rate that he is indeed sleeping in the cold below

[@rivalthedarkfury2733]

It would be nice if they made his ultimate last forever until you return back to zevagoth or have that ultimate as a energy drain per second ability. Something like this. When he gets enough kills with his abilities he can release his shadow form and stay there as long as he wants until his shadow comes back or gets killed to start over the process or he can just have his ability just be a energy drain per second like the other frames cuz alot of people love his ultimate. I hope people would agree with this

[@lightnbrightt]

I don't like the way he looks if he gets a cool jacket or something with a deluxe I'll use him until then not gonna touch him lmao

[@Erakelus]

Hydroid: I'm the pirate warframe. Sevagoth: I'm the biggest bird.
