Synoid heliocor used to be a direct downgrade and now it's a decent sidegrade if you like status.

[@eyywannn8601]

@@noteansylvan6051 Yeah, it’s weird that the base Akbolto deals more than the Telos. I was here when they brought the update and just assumed it was better.

[@conservativestrawman9837]

I still use Secura Dual Cestra with a riven on Hyldrin and there is no better weapon for her, I get a refresh to my shield if I hold it while I use my 3 and 4 abilities in tandum and when I am not using my abilities, it shreds even in arbitration when its not the chosen weapon. Edit: My Synoid Gammacor (also with a riven) is even more powerful and deletes enemies in literal nano seconds, all my other frames use this as a secondary for constant energy refills

[@leon-zt7wu]

it my most played secondary still ( even if i dont use it at all nowadays) and im MR30 now xD

[@xornedge8204]

Was my main pistol before the Laetum came by. That weapon gives me the same satisfaction, but is amazing in terms of damage even without being fully upped.

When I noticed Rakta Dark Dagger's shield buffs, first thought I had? "...I'm gonna put this on Harrow."

[@BimmWPBS]

I've been using the RDD on Harrow for a few days now and it just synergies with his kit so well, I love it

[@scottishboy112]

Honestly, the Sancti Magistar is still my favourite Melee weapon. I loved the healing years ago and still do. One thing that is noteworthy, it can heal objectives. Not all at once but it procs Regen on it for a short time. There isn’t much that can actually heal objectives.

[@conservativestrawman9837]

I'm working on a Sancti Magistar + Oberon Prime build for this exact reason, his renew skill will heal objectives

[@scottishboy112]

@@conservativestrawman9837 Yep. It can also heal sentinels if for some reason there’s no health Regen on it. I have a Riven for mine that takes the Crit up to 191% with automatic red crits on ANY heavy attack and some initial combo with more damage.

[@sarpsevincli]

was waiting for this. Good content

[@juanzegarra5244]

I really don’t miss the time when you could afk hydron with mirage and synoid simulor

[@yammoto148]

Hydron? It was always Akkad and Draco for me, as Hydron has higher level enemies but roughly the same affinity gain in the other nodes and you could stay there longer on frames you were leveling. It only became worth to go to hydron if you were using a frame that could screen clear without weapons like Ember or Banshee who were already levelled. I still go to Hydron every now and again, but now my Mag basically kills enemies as they spawn its so funny.

[@petuniacoder844ferro2]

In the first 30 second. I saw the intro with the rakta cernos and i new that this channel is underrated. Great job. Amazing video and rewiew

[@huntinghunter1001]

The synod heliocor is definitely an upgrade. Condition overload is a hell of a mod

[@TizonaAmanthia]

Vay Kor Hek is one of my absolute faves. I do love the dual Cestras, but I agree, they weren't amazing...I just love bullet hoses.

[@animethunder2546]

I use the castanas as a stealth weapon cause even if someone literally sees the thing explode and their ally die they act like they didn't see it at all

[@gornnorg418]

Secura Lecta is heavily nerfed compared to what it use to be, it used to give massive amounts of credits. So I won't expect any buffs there anytime soon. Also, according to wiki, regular Dark Dagger gives movement speed buff, Rakta version loses on this.

[@Zevox144]

Doing the Secura Dual Cestra, Vaykor Marelok, and both Heks kinda dirty here, but other than that good show. Shame what's happened to the Vaykor Sydon and Secura Lecta.

[@andrewbaiocco304]

i bought the sancti castanas for 20p because i always loved using the castanas. it's just so fun to use; throwing them onto my teammates and sending them straight into the enemy is so awesome to see.

[@andrewbaiocco304]

also, i went with suda and arbiters because my friend wanted me too so he can get some of the mods/weapons and i feel a little screwed over lol

[@A1eafFa11s_Turtles]

Sancti Castanas we’re actually a go-to secondary for me for a long time. They’re handicapped by lacking slash price, but the forced status proc and riven disposition made them hit pretty hard; especially if you manually detonate over enemy heads instead of allowing them to land. Also, the lateral multishot pattern is fantastic for deleting entire rooms, even at relatively high levels, but only with a riven. The massive AoE also makes it one of the best Spore spreaders in the game.

[@A1eafFa11s_Turtles]

I will say though, I’ve largely abandoned the Sancti Castanas as an AoE secondary since the Sporelacer became available.

[@huntinghunter1001]

For the simulor, you gotta use Mirage to take advantage of it

[@DrSlothMedic]

I have a + multi, dmg, heat riven for the synoid gammacor and anything I throw at it, even better than most my primary’s. Praise the 5/5 dispo

[@dracobellator1164]

its worth mention for synoid heliocor, the main damage is impact so it benefits from shattering impact and its a hammer which means you already have a good fast stance for stripping armor with heavy attacks.

[@macobus6743]

The amount of impact doesn't affect the armor strip whatsoever so let ng as it has impact

[@dracobellator1164]

@@macobus6743 the amount of a damage stat effect IPS priority. So being Impact heavy means more procs also the hammers have on of the best multi-hit spin combos. So it vary much does matter, plus synoid heliocor has a bonus initial combo one of only 2 melee with such a distinction the other being fragor prime which is one of the harder to get old gen prime melee. So synoid heliocor doubles as a budget heavy attack hammer. Check mate.

[@codyjuarezlopez5415]

They did heavily buff the Synoid Heliocor and it is now a worthwhile weapon to use.

[@lee_mill3712]

I remember the Secura lecta was a thing to earn 2m cred under 30 waves of infested defence with a booster tileset and a credit booster. Four squad of people only bringing it and whip the credits off the infested booty. It was so good that the nef anyo index was not relevant anymore.

[@HellishSpoon]

i mainly want these weapons for fasion frame im going for like syndicate themed loadouts and using warframes that have similarity to syndicate, for example: making ash into red veil cause edgy bois

I think you should have mentioned the augment mod for the hek at that comparison.

[@BrokenRazorButterfly]

he should have mentioned augments, rivens even when they are rng have also become a huge part of warframe builds are also neglected and the stat changes are unclear and shown with 1 to 3 green arrows as if they are supposed to mean something directly obvious

sancti castanas are actually CORE to one of my favorite eidolon hunting builds using ivara, I'd GREATLY miss its removal lol

[@MrBiosh0ck]

Just a note, and this is probably outdated at this point, but I use sancti castanas with a navigator ivara built to take down eidolons. It's pretty fun cause once they are set up you just pop the shields and press a button to blow a limb up.

The lack of slash on the teloce boltace isn't actually that bad, seeing how it has access to sovereign outcast, as well as tonfas having forced slash on heavy attacks. It also groups enemies remarkably well, so it's good for frames that don't have any grouping ability, and benefit from gas damage (hint hint wink wink lavos)

[@lightknightgames]

From your combat footage, it looks like you need to double your DPI and half your sensitivity. It will let you aim between your current arcs, but feel like the same speed. Letting you do more precise shots. And make your footage smoother. Or you can go further and triple or quadruple DPI with inverse sensitivity. (If youre still running these settings.)
