Warframe's NEW SECRET to make Melees OP

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

How have you used them in your Melee Builds?

[@justbrukis2566]

Yeah I have used them in my Magistar heavy attack down slam build and they're really good. I think you should make a build on Magistar :)

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

Magistar is brought up to me so often, I really should give it a closer look ;)

[@zjpdarkblaze]

lol aura mod slot is much more important than a normal mod slot so using ready steel takes away a very good slot. its better to combine galvanized reflex with corrupt charge than ready steel since aura mods like combat discipline, ready steel, growing power, brief respite, etc are so much better than any other normal mod slot mods.

[@maxderps2823]

Could you please do a new Hate/Harmony build with these and the new augment for hate?

[@hexmaniacviolet4678]

Been messing with the Harmony with Galv steel and Reflex tbh. And it is honestly really fun even if I am not using Umbral Steel for it. Tho if I did have that on I would need to forma my Harmony more. And I use Galv Reflex AND Corrupt Charge still for a little extra boost for it before building the Galv procs

[@TheLunarDawn]

Galvanized Steel is kind of niche, as Sacrificial Steel and Blood Rush are superior in everg way...buuut, if you are running only Blood Rush, Amalgam Organ Shatter can be subbed out for Galv Steel for more CC and 30% more CD, or outright drop Gladiator Might for a non-conditonal +110% CC and double CD. Galv Reflex is bat sh- insane on slam builds and Incarnons, no questions asked. ...then there is Galv Elementalist, the second coming of Condition Overload has risen from the grave, praise the status lords!

If you don’t have Galvanized mods yet, just use the Naramon Tenno school with the Blood Rush and/or Weeping Wounds mods until you can get the Galvanized mods.

[@ByteBitson]

Nah, corrupt charge isn't dead, now it's niche as hell, like running Dex Nikana with Galv Reflex and Corrupt Charge hits permanent x11 combo unlike wasting your aura slot with Ready Steel

[@UltraHydrationSupreme]

Tbh that's a waste of a slot. It's just a 37% damage increase.

[@UltraHydrationSupreme]

@zjpdarkblaze I'm not talking about ready steel. I'm talking about corrupt charge and galv reflex vs just galv reflex. Diminishing returns. And combat discipline is rather niche, only used for it's interaction with avenger.

[@rakesiar]

@@UltraHydrationSupremeDiminishing returns applies to Galvanized Reflex and Corrupt Charge? I thought it only applied to pure damage increases.

[@UltraHydrationSupreme]

@rakesiar no, any stat increase that is additive. The only exception is non armor DR, because different DRs are multiplicative, and the same dr stat actually has increasing returns.

[@darkfadegaming9539]

Your videos are the reason why I always come back to Warframe. Love your videos!

[@jamazu1]

Been waiting to see you make a video on the new galv mods wver since they dropped! You've always been my go-to content creator when it comes to Warframe stuff so im really glad that you finally made a video on these new mods ‼️

[@KazeSenseii]

I wasn’t using Galvanized Reflex on my Glaive Prime built for Ash’s Blade Storm since Blade Storm kills count as finishers so I’d need Crescendo anyway for the best results. But watching this video gave me the idea that since Blade Storm benefits from combo multipliers too it may be beneficial to use Galv Reflex to help it get over that initial hump of lower damage while I’m low combo count

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

That's definitely gonna be a convenient solution for early mission, yes ^^

[@KernalGohd]

I actually really love these mods, it feels like they released 2 of them specifically to raise the power of the non Harmony Heavy Attack builds, since it was so simple and so strong. And they were still nice enough to throw a bone to that build too.

[@Auraniwastaken]

Hey dude, recently bought a steam deck so I decided to play wf again after a couple years. Ty for the thoroughly explanative guides, I felt like I was doing homework with all the new stuff in the game

[@vos_is_boss7623]

lets these guys do it for you, haha

[@McSmurfy]

I use Galvanized Steel in place of the Umbra one because too much endo to level and I don't have forma for it. I like this explanation for these mods because I just put them one since they say 'Galvanized'😅 and the weapon kills.

[@jchampagne2]

I think regular Elementalist fits better on any heavy attack builds where you have a damage-dealing forced proc (Glaives, 2H Nikana, Scythes, etc.) since you're not really dependent on the regular status chance for those situations but more heavy wind-up speed is always more comfortable.

[@ruphus02]

The only case where I could see corrupt charge being better than the galvanized one is where you are doing a boss like profittaker/eidolon or whatever, where you don't necesseraly have time to kill enemies.

[@nightmarishvisions8539]

Given that galvanized reflex and corrupt charge together also give a 6x multiplier, but without having to give up your aura slot, you can also use both of them together to activate incarnon melee weapons right out of the gate

[@t_sh_s3529]

yippy a new video i am happy to see your videos get better and better and i have stayed in the ride along the way

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

Aaaaw thank you soo much for the sweet feedback! It's really encouraging

[@Signupking]

I dont like Galvanized Steel that much because its just so so much weaker compared to the Umbra variant

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

Yeah I totally see that. On heavy attack builds I would never replace Sacrificial Steel with Galvanized Steel. But I really like the idea of using it as a Crit DMG Mod instead :D

[@electrobrotm217]

Yeah, galv steel is much better as a Gladiator Might replacement in melees that can run it, as opposed to using it in heavy atk builds.

[@Apprentice_of_Epitaph]

But it gives you 120 crit damage 😅 chritchance without chrit damage is useless

[@mowserscatingtin9853]

Bruh i got my first galv mod last week (im mr 15 btw) and i didnt realize its just a worse umbra mod till after i got it smh. I realized it has lower crit chance but has higher damage, still stinks though. Idk if its better or worse in practice though

[@ReaperD23]

You're looking at it wrong. Think of it as just more Critical Damage with a sprinkling of Crit Chance. You don't need crit chance when you have a helminth ability that gives flat crit chance based on strength

[@ottojacobi3059]

something to note with heavy spam builds is that Initial combo takes time to regenerate to it's maximum value. So larger slower swings is better than spamming faster heavies, and the combo efficiency from the new galvanized mods basically works as a buffer allowing you to spam more without losing damage.

[@mei-yoru]

Harmony works perfectly with all three galvanized mod that my Kullervo can brainless spam 1 to slay everything

[@vercik2551]

I think that galvanized steel has a use in heavy attack build because with galvanized reflex initial combo bonus you can use bood rush and galvanized steel which can give good result

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

Oh sure, if you have the space to fit Blood Rush and Galv. Steel then definitely go for it ;)

[@Joe90h]

I've used Reflex Coil specifically on niche Innodem and my Corufell builds in the past, but Focus Energy and Focus Radon ultimately made the original obsolete unless you were super obsessed with keeping slash weight or something.

[@jmmcswagger9091]

Been waiting for this vid, thank you.

[@DaSharkCraftMC]

I've found using corrupt charge with reflex is a fun way of locking a weapon at 6x multiplier for incarnon melees without using the initial combo aura. Very useful if you have heavy attack builds for incarnon weapons like the sibear. As for galvanized steel, unfortunately for light attack builds on exalted weapons that can not use melee arcanes like duplicate or even blood rush, I do not feel like it has strong enough benefits to outcompete Sacrificial Steel. I feel like the introduction of these galvanized mods has hastened the need for exalted weapons to be updated since many normal weapons can outperform exalted weapons even with vastly boosted ability strength.

[@TheProphetOfThePan]

Yeah its better to see galv steel as crit DMG upgrade and replace organ shatter or gladiator might for normal melee builds, as for elementalist its just so good that extra bump into status chance itw so good for melee influence builds

[@scytze]

melee crescendo on teleport/heavy melee Ash is going to love Galvanized reflex. You basicly getting full 12x back in teleport finisher animation

[@АлександрКобзарь-ц8э]

I love your videos. They helped me with builds since I started

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

Aaaw thank you! Really happy that you found my Guides so helpful

[@ethanemerson4862]

( 5:56 ) on their own, yes, Galvanized Steel is stronger (+120%). But when you have both Gladiator Might AND Organ Shatter, they are stronger than the Galvanized Steel (+150%)

[@mmmaiamm3078]

-30% for 2 extra mod slots not to bad. Considering after a point you can go up to max level and demolish everything anyway. It opens the door to try a less meta build with more options.

[@mmmaiamm3078]

Galvanized steel, and Gladiator might, with Kelluvro's helmith for Garunteed Red crits and the boosted crit damage goes crazy.

[@mrwii97]

Galvanized Reflex is my favorite mod

[@Molisa682]

I use Melee Elementalist instead of Galvanized for my heavy attack Hate build, because the Stance gives it guaranteed slash procs on the heavy attack so the extra status chance is not that good compared to the extra speed

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

Yup, these are the exact edge cases that I meant. I like that there is still some Build variation that is viable ^^

[@aquamarinerose5405]

I'll argue for corrupt charge in that if you don't want to have the wind up needed. Like, my main Hate build basically amounts to "I wanna use this to slash that 1 big bastard that I don't feel like dealing with" though I realize I probably should do more with my hate

[@shade1060]

The only build I can't replace Corrupt Charge on is my Eidolon Redeemer/Stropha builds. I am not melee killing things on the Plains. Great explanations in your video, opened up my thought process.

[@Rataroto]

Great video, but it is important to mention that as your arsenal and resources grow, Sacrificial Steel is on pretty much every build if you’re going for red crits. The other two Galvanized mods are nice, though niche. Critical Chance; however, has only one king.

GALVANIZED SQUARE STEEL🔊🔊

[@iDEATH]

There is still a niche use for Corrupt Charge. I mean seriously niche, for real, but it is something I do on some warframes, when I don't intend to melee much, like using Hirudo or something else with Life Strike (Rakta Dark Dagger!) in it, just as a means for sustain. Having that 2x combo right out of the gate is really nice. If you're going to seriously melee at all, though, yeah, I totally agree, it'd be one of the first mods to replace even before Galvanized Reflex came out.

[@njbrin347]

Hey man I'm looking forward for building Hirudo and rakta dagger. Mind telling me some tips to watch out when I mod em?

[@kutkuknight]

You say only to use normal elementalist if that’s your ONLY possible source of wind up speed but what kinda goofy builds are you making? All of my heavy attack builds use 2-3 wind up speed mods because that massively increase the comfort

[@Naski_K]

companion update part 2 guide when🙏

[@levijuchau9794]

I don't think people are evaluating galvanized steel and sacrificial steel accurately. Sure, if you just compare them to each other then sacrificial seems better for heavy attack builds but if you look at them in a complete build it's a different story. Sacrificial steel and organ shatter gives you 440 crit chance and 90 crit damage on heavy attacks whereas galvanized and blood rush gives you 420 crit chance and 120 crit damage with galvanized reflex which every heavy attack build is just gonna use now. You sacrifice 20 crit chance for 30 crit damage which is already a good trade but gets even better if you have any additional initial combo like ready steel or a Riven.

[@richardvld]

If you have another source of melee base damage, you can use sacrificial pressure + sacrificial steel for +550% critical chance on heavy attacks. I currently use Galvanized steel + Riven 90% critical chance on my Xoris, which gives me 110% critical chance + 45% from the Avenger arcane, totaling 155% critical chance. With Sacrificial Steel I would have 158+45, totaling 203%. With sacrificial pressure I would have 182+45, totaling 227%. I need to do some testing to compare if it is worth continuing to use Galvanized Steel. I thought about the possibility of using Blood Rush, but I thought it would be better to hunt for a medium riven that gave something close to 100% critical chance(200% heavy attack) along with other stats, fortunately I got this riven with 90% critical chance, 42% critical damage and unfortunately +1 range that doesn't help me at all kkk

galvanized steel doesnt have a max crit chance. its always 110% crit at max rank. i think you are combining the 110% with the 120% but that 120% conditional is NOT crit chance BUT crit damage.
