[@kushminister5137]

@@makibishi15 "not the sancti or anything like that" the man just flat out says it

[@Tricsterfull]

I found a flaw of this build. It is so fun, that you can forget to recast Nurish. Happens to me many times so I ended up with no energy

[@20xdee6]

@@makibishi15 to repeat the information in the video, the biggest boost comes from lower grade incarnon weapons, because the way the incarnon stat bonuses work is that they are larger on lower grade weapons like base or mk1. since incarnon bonuses increase the *base* damage of stat stick abilities and completely ignore stat stick weapon stats (only mods and relevant incarnon bonuses apply), you want the highest incarnon bonuses possible

[@AnthonyClausen]

I love playing 'find the frame he's not hovering over something' so i can actually see the fcking build.

[@DILLIOVRC]

im pretty sure somebody already said this but a little pointer. if you are having problems with keeping the combo counter up and running, use either primary and/or secondary dexterity on your weapons. it extends the timer for your combo when you get melee kills. hope this helps out someone like me who was running into the same problem.

[@AnExercisInThought]

Gotta give you props, your content has been growing and you seem to be having more fun. Even your more recent builds have been more upkeep friendly without sacrificing any power and have a more clear path to progress to them. Keep up the good work you more than earned being one of my very few subscriptions!

@@joshuathomasverghese1341 ohhh thank you so much. I’m a returning player (it’s been about 7 years) and i just built her prime version

[@HayleePierce]

For anyone struggling with energy regeneration: 12x combo without naramon is tough upkeep (at least for me) in missions with gaps or sporadic enemy spawning, so your combo count will tend to drop, you’ll dish out less damage, less enemies will die, and ultimately less energy orbs will drop. Solutions I’ve found: Going with a less tanky build in favor of energy regen so I could switch back to naramon - (Using his first Khora build) I took off adaptation/redirection and put on rolling guard and energy nexus. Rolling guard keeps me alive, energy nexus helps me to spam nourish and whipclaw without worrying about energy (even when the mission gets slow I still build energy with nexus). I kept the aura corrosive projection (I didn’t need to shield gate with my rolling guard since I didn’t have struggles with survivability). With energy covered a bit more on the build, I switched my focus school to naramon for the continued combo and was able sustain the high damage because of the sustained 12x combo. SO FAR I haven’t had energy issues with this switch. If you want to keep zenurik - you could add dexterity arcanes on weapons to help keep combo up and you could use the rauta as your primary (it won’t dish out a lot of damage but combo goes up quickly while using it). I tried this and didn’t have much improvement so I’m sticking with the khora build adjustment. I’m not saying these are the best solutions. Switching the build up worked well for me and I figured I would share so it could potentially help someone out. (However, I am still looking for a way to add pilfering to this build because I love the loot 🙃)

[@hq1082]

If u ever find a way to implement Pilfering Strangledome let me know

[@HayleePierce]

@@hq1082 I’ve been able to fit pilfering on there, but it takes sacrificing either range or duration. Sacrificing duration means I’ll be using a lot more energy to keep the domes up, so I’m thinking of removing overextended when running loot missions and just placing two domes close to one another to get a little more range in one area of the map. I’m going to run a few loot missions like this to test it out, and I’ll let you know if I find any other solutions.

[@HayleePierce]

@@hq1082 Update: I was able to replace equilibrium with pilfering. I can’t ability spam as much but it works pretty well without causing too much trouble with my energy. I may just pull out the pilfering build when I’m running for resources and switch back for every other mission since I don’t use the dome much outside of trying to loot. Thankfully it’s literally just a one mod swap between the two builds.

[@kenshi4296]

I like how you explain in depth with the magistar, Eventhough i got the picture. Additional information like this is always super helpfull

[@ghengooni]

You can also swap the 90s for electric and heat with the new radiation melee mod and slot whatever else you want in the extra space (such as primed fever strike to also ignore shields). Not that this needs to do any more damage with how hard it hits already

[@demonsdan291]

Got again a similar built before i watched it. Let's be honest. You can put nourish on almost any frame and it will work. But your videos are really motivating and of high qualitiy and no Clickbait like Pupsker

[@Calaman228]

Pupsker is more a warframe news channel; if you want builds, watch knightmare and aznvasions

[@rogeriosousa9474]

Truth

[@midnight2768]

Nice vid I ended up crafting the purple shards as well for crit damage, it does even more ridiculous/braindead damage XD

[@deanradley65]

My personal preference is to use Naramon to help keep the combo at 11-12 all the time. You’d need to swap out molt augmented for energise (this is why lycaths hunt is popular as you won’t need the energise but you lose the viral Fromm nourish)

I’ve been running my spectrosiphon khora since before her prime even came out so I’m reluctant to switch over completely to a new helminth simply because I’m so used to it. I’m stuck between using Lycaths or Nourish on her. I struggled big time keeping my energy up with nourish and can’t figure out why (although I don’t have the full build yet because I’m missing a few items).

[@howard1148]

Hmm shivering contagion nautilus diriga melee vortex/influence Hmm also sickening pulse does acount for the extra corrosive procs and companions may not get those extra stacks but u can then prime to get those extra stacks

[@Ryuthns]

Do you lose all arcane stacks or just one when the timer run out ? Btw keep up the good work. You and Kyaii are my favorite channels for min-maxed builds.

[@howard1148]

just for a heads up, u can mod ur magistar for radiation with the murmur radiation mods, toxin 60/60 mod then a rank 4 melee exposure, now here is 3 elemental, then use epitaph with secondary encumber for cold and a random status effect, so there is 5 now and i also use positive strength with nourish for viral and fast energy regen, and now 6 elementals in total to easily trigger bond mods, my stats are almost the same as urs just that i have 110 strength and 105 efficiency, this is also a very broken build so the way this build works is also almost the same as urs just that before i can even reach red crit like with base 0 combo, i can already one shot everything on sight, i also have equilibrium on then add the nourish buff, i just spam 4 and 1 endlessly, and i also use dethcube prime (with synth deconstruct + energy generator to force drop energy and health orbs just for triggering equilibrium), so the buttons are actually [4 > epitaph > 1 > repeat] but i like ceramic dagger more tbh, personal reference tho i do use naramon for combo decay thats about it actually, im an Immortal Unkillable Infinite Energy Khora with Insanely High One-Shot Whip (even acolytes) but the key to everything is Epitaph, and btw this is my original build and didnt copy from anyone as i saw no one used a positive strength khora with nourish until now
