Top 10 Best Warframe Companions of 2024

[@Metal_Sign-Friday_Patchouli]

4 years ago I’d have been like “we have more than 10 companions?”

[@boat378]

Great timing, I came back to Warframe recently and the concept of priming is still new to me. I come from a time where you only used Carrier and unequipped your sentinel weapon so it wouldn't get itself killed.

[@NovaXXX7]

Im also in this exact situation.

[@eliott.6997]

Unironically, Nautilus is every solo player's Player 2.

[@lunasterling4009]

Nautilus is our Loid for solo DRG

[@joeehlersson144]

And player 3 and 4.. Doublex Bond

[@MauMenzori]

An extra note for Sahasa Kubrow users (seeing I use him a lot with my Mirage Sleight of Hand build to nuke Defenses): He does dig quite a lot, but there is a caveat: only if there are no enemies around. Or else he goes attack them and ignores the digging part. And the obvious: your dog simply WON'T get to digging if you are moving around. Stand your grown and wait so he can start digging. Also, for those of you who still do not own "Elusive Posture" (Claw's stance mod), be warned your Kubrow can AND WILL prioritize attacking enemies if they are nearby instead of digging. If you are lacking energy and need orbs, then fall back and hide in a corner (really) to wait for him to dig. He won't do it in the presence of enemies.

[@Garroosh]

Think a lot of you guys in the comments need to chill, his builds are not the law for what everyone should be using, he's just giving people suggestions. You can run whatever you want, just cause he puts elusive/bite or whatever else on everyone and says other mods are bad doesn't mean you can't try out the stuff he doesn't suggest out. His words aren't gospel, stop taking a helpful guide for people that don't wanna test stuff so seriously.

Kinda glad he didn’t mention predasites and frenzied behavior lol they’re NASTY rn

For the Huras, even with elusive, I would consider Duplex Bond since the clones can then go attack while your main Huras stays passive.

[@luckyjohnson1767]

This was super helpful. Ive been trying out different pets trying to see what I liked and what I needed. Nothing had really been what I wanted. My biggest hurdle was not really knowing what my options were and after watching, was able to go out and get the right companion.

[@zavos5659]

Hopefully we get a companion rework part 3 for modular robotics. Hound is already really good and just needs polish, while MOA needs an overhaul badly.

[@specterowl2528]

Yeah, I never bothered to even get MOAs

[@justcallmed933]

@@zavos5659 MOAs definitely need a rework, but in current state you can use them for very quick spy missions if you give them the hack mod and use the helminth ability to summon companions (spoiler: this way you can spawn your MOA on the other side of walls/windows where they'll hack the console)

[@Fletchabirb]

I still use MOAs despite how outclassed they are because I love birds, at least they have decent survivability

[@o_Omega]

I quite like Coolant leak for sentinels that can't proc Manifold bond on their own, it's basically arc coil with a 10s cd, that still gets lowered by manifold. Also contagious bond procs off mecha set kills, which is pretty good even when your kubrow doesn't do dmg.

[@kerim-can-mert]

Thanks for the amazing detailed video. I like to mention something about smeetas you forgot to mention. What makes smeeta and charm great is not the affinity boost or something. They can generate rare loots depends where you are. Such as argon, orokin cell, entrati lantorn (i get even steel essences from charm i belive but im not sure abot that) If i need argon i dont run 20-30 mins survival or something. Im trying to get lucky with the buff and get free argon while farming relics. After 1 hour relic farm most of the time i have 4-6 argons. She saves lots of time and effort with the rare material drops. Randomly free gifts. After this 2500 hours play time, she saved maybe countles time with the materials she gave to me.

[@justcallmed933]

Yes, this one

[@thethumblessn00b19]

3x affinity saves me 40p every proc. It takes me 1 minute in recruiting for a quick argon run or cells 😂

[@fabiodiascerruti3464]

I'm a returning player after a couple of years and always loved the companions - but can't really make use of then. So much love spent in Kubrows breed or new companions farm for nothing. Now I'm really happy with this rework and having so much fun. Great video.

Thank you! i have been looking everywhere for a video going over all the sentinel weapons, especially from a WF Vet. :)

Did you see the full video? The guy thinks that dethcube is a better energy generator than duplex bond.

[@Envy-NV]

He also says bite, hunter synergy, and elusive posture should be run on every kubrow lol

[@ryukomatoi69420]

​@@Envy-NVbecause they are?

[@Capitan_Captain]

@@ryukomatoi69420 why should hunter synergy be used on an over 90% CRIT chance claws? You can use one of the base damage type mods in that case and get more consistent damage. The use of ANY mod depends on the pet and what you want to use it for. The only mandatory mods are fetch and some kind of survival mod.

[@Capitan_Captain]

@@ryukomatoi69420 and elusive posture limit your pet capabilities a lot. You stop it from spreading statuses, from triggering mods like contagious bond or duplex bond, which gives pretty huge advantages, like an aoe primer/nuke with contagious, and a consistent energy generator with duplex bond. This guide/top feels hella rushed, and lacks investigation on the topic.

[@darkumineru1681]

19:00 there is a tek mod that gives even more survivability (mainly needed for higher end levels) making them have 60% chance to not die and immunity for 4s (effected by 30% giving more then 5s) its quite nice :D and works on vulpa for there revives to let them revive without dying for it

[@avraelasgard]

I love Huras Kubrow (or really any kubrow, but Huras has the strongest claw stats), for doing the basically same thing verglas prime does, which is burning enemies to death in an 9m radius with contagious bond. But kubrows can use resourceful retriever for more loot, so theyre even more useful. Even tho kubrows attack slower then the verglas on a sentinel, that mod alone makes it worth more imo. Mod claws for full heat with the burning claws mod, use an attacking posture mod, and without much setup, watch one enemy die and then all others around it even in SP. If you have nourish or better yet roar, it buffs that like crazy. And you can make this setup go SO crazy, that it can solo level cap. If you use the full mecha set, it seems that when even if one of the enemies dying in the original 9m radius was marked, it will spread those heat procs to another 30m radius, which is as ridiculous as it sounds. The main negative point about the mecha set is, that you have to search for the one guy with the mark, and dont accidently kill him before loading him up with dot statuses. This is completely removed by your pet just not caring, killing anything around it no matter who he attacks, and then automatically spreading it even further. Furthermore, if you wanna get the ABSOLUTE overkill out of just seeing your pet obliterate even level cap missions (and im not exaggerating), use Dante with roar over his 1 and Kuva Kohm. Thats it. He will first of all make sure your pet will always survive with overguard, and his birds spread status chance vulnerability AND status damage vulnerability. With the 300% strength i get when molt augmented is stacked, thats +150% for both stats, meaning every heat proc the pet dealt, will now at least be 2 procs, and they will do 150% more dmg, which is so much that its ridiculous. However, that isnt all. Why did i mention Kuva Kohm? Because it can get the most status chance of any primary weapon, without a riven i can build it for 378% status chance, which is easy since you will never fire the weapon and can just use all those mods. Now, why does this matter? Because the claw mod mecha overdrive will give your pet 60% of the status chance of your primary weapon... which gets my kubrow to 254,3% status chance. Ye, thats to give an exact number, a FUCKTON of heat stat procs per attack. And THAT will then get buffed by enemies touched by dantes birds, and as you can imagine this interaction is so broken, that you can do level cap without attacking once with your warframe. And since youre not attacking and just casting, that will not remove the invisibility from the stalk mod from you. So you and your companion will stay invisible almost constantly. And thats just on top of dantes overguard. There is a whole other layer if you DO wanna attack with your warframe... because you could use the mod burning hate, on... your hate, making all enemies that were burning before, take 120% ADDITIONAL status damage. And with melee influence, every enemy that was proced with heat from the pet, and electric from the hate itself, will get that debuff. But this is SO much unnecessary overkill, its not even funny, and even in literal level cap, i doubt you would see much diffrence. This is truly the most broken build in the game imo right now... and its not directly from a warframe OR weapon. Its your goddamn pet!

[@cantoastro]

Good overview! Wanted to add a couple notes: 1: Because Robotic companions can use Sentinel mods, Hounds can use Guardian. They are one of the best companions for it due to their unique precepts' insane status spreading. 2: Cat's Eye only goes on cooldown after its duration expires, so it only has about 40% uptime (or only 33% without Tek Enhance). Personally having to wait 20 seconds between each crit buff is enough to keep Adarza off my list. Manifold Bond for cats when? 3: To get maximum energy from Dethcube you should give him a weapon with Gas and status duration, as he also gets assists on enemies that walk through the clouds. 4a: Momentous Bond doesn't do much for Panzer, Devolution can't be sped up and Viral Quills ignores the extra elements (according to the wiki, maybe they were talking about the spores though). 4b-z: Viral Quills is really good at tagging enemies for Synth Deconstruct and also gives respectable healing with Hunter Adrenaline. Martyr Symbiosis is fantastic "dumbass insurance" for content where revives are penalized or not permitted, and Tek Assault can keep Panzer alive through its self-sacrifice to do it again right away. It's insane that Panzer can do so many things well that half of them didn't get mentioned!

[@Brozime]

Ok gonna respond to these in order since there is a lot 1 guardian absolutely an option on the hounds I dropped it in favor of all-in on damage output but splitting it is totally reasonable 2 I tested adarza early in the patch and it’s possible this has changed somewhere in hotfixes? Will retest it soon 3 Gas is an excellent option though I value the normal tazicor build on him especially for hvts 4 agree with all of this I should have mentioned more specifically that momentous is for martyr and dropping devolution out of the build. panzer really does do everything and adding synth for equilibrium builds is another great option and those two middle mods shift around a lot

[@cantoastro]

@@Brozime thanks for the response

[@Tundra.]

Now I feel like I never knew how to build my companions before. Thank you for this list!

[@DarkTree]

7 companion full overhauls later the thing you do with all animal companions still is try your hardest to prevent them from attacking, causing all mods *except* ones that give buffs to your actual character you're playing to be largely or wholly irrelevant big hype i'm glad the dethcube does damage now as opposed to when i started warframe where i went "well, it has less HP than carrier prime, so why would i wanna use it? it's gonna hit single digits anyway"

[@Yomush]

What could be worth mentioning is that Chesa Kubrow has a unique ability to "desecrate" containers, potentially yielding extra ayatan stars

[@thethumblessn00b19]

I haven’t seen this happen before, interesting lol

[@RBGJoe]

I was actually going to ask for this video and boom. Thank you.

[@har7649]

Oh yea if DE still hasn’t changed this weird feature but companions might still have priority slots. They use abilities from left to right first. I’ve tested and it’s really only a 0.1 latency difference at times but this is warframe. Sometimes and rarely the companions would fuck up and I’d die. This is tested using survivability mods before the current companion update. But I’m sure some of you may want it to proc other things first as well.

[@justcallmed933]

Few things worth mentioning from a person who only uses beast companions for many years now: 1) Oxylus: do NOT use it for mining/fishing if you have any beast companion. Why? Bc beast companions have resourceful retriver and it does work on stones and fish and the luminescent thing for fish is quite cheap to craft if you need 2)Smeeta is still good if you wanna farm the rare resource of the area (like argon or orokin cells) bc they have a pretty good chance of simply giving them to you and it makes farming so much easier -(just dont install any mods that make smeeta's abilities last longer)- 3) All the claws builds in the video are honestly just a big waste of potential (mostly bc of the stance to be specific) that I'd only use if you're a new player and simply don't have the mods to build properly for your companion's survivability.. If you build for high status + use contagious bond + pack leader then any companion becomes a _really_ good help in battle 4) Sunika kubrow: shame on the author for not even mentioning them, bc they are currently _the best_ beasts if you want a companion who simply kiils. I'm not kidding, they do better than the famous panzer (better than any beast, really) 5) Vascas have a cool ability to resurrect you 6)Predasites also not even mentioned? They are also quite cool, check them out -7) Sahasa (this one I'm not sure about this one, would be glad if someone confirms or not) , but can't they use their ability only out of battle?.. Which makes them not so useful btw- _____ I think that's all I wanted to say, feel free to ask about builds and correct things if I was wrong somewhere

[@Vaxtin]

I also have an affinity for beast companions. Some users and myself were making feedback posts about the Sahasa and they finally allowed it to dig during combat a few weeks ago. One issue is that it currently bugged? doesn't wait until you are missing resources anymore and stops to dig every 15 seconds no matter what's going on.

[@helloyu6270]

I’m pretty sure the mods that increase smeeta ability duration don’t decrease how often they are casted

[@justcallmed933]

[@felix_patriot]

Unlike shade which stops firing its weapons, the Huras dog gets to attack even while its invisibility precept is active, and it doesn't even break the stealth. It still won't get targetted if it attacks even without elusive posture since it will be invisible. Definitely slot Contagious Bond on it and do a Burning Claws/Precision Conditioning damage setup.

While just not having pets attack is great i think you are really underselling the damage output pets can do now, they don't beat hounds but its certainly not nothing. with built out claws most kubros can nuke areas with contagious bond and Vanari is honestly nearly matching what my whipclaw on khora can do kill wise.

This top is pretty shitty tbh. No duplex bond for energy generator, using mystic bond instead lol, dethcube in top ten just for the energy generator when we have duplex bond, no contagious bond on any of the beasts, saying that sunika bad when it can literally strip all the overguard on an eximus in one hit lol, no pharaoh predasite when it's literally a walking nuke.

helios should be mentioned for armor strips on frames like sevagoth and gloom users or frames that use mass AoE ability auras like equinox has its the only sentinel to armor strip and it does it well and its weak point detection is nice for getting on kill arcanes active like its nice not like kind of companions just felt it needed mention

If i could play warframe at the moment, i would be reviewing my companions at this very moment. Honestly I've never really thought much about the companions, and sorta just ran smeeta and didn't think much about it.

[@darkumineru1681]

kinda feel some companions where left out mainly sly and medjey sly with its rework gives some really nice survivability with its bullet jump to remove all agro for a time while being good for dps due to its claws innate combo element the medjey however is like having 4 "mecha" procs 1 from the predisite mod and 2 from its own precepts and another from mecha it can build things like viral gas elec with 100% status giving great status to spread with bond or its abilities tandom bond being a great buff i have it built to kill even in level cap be it cascade or survival and a few others and it drops lots of health orbs due to this too it has been used for armor strip with a few setups too its just stupid :D

[@MILDMONSTER1234]

Hounds are the best primers even more so then Panzers

[@animelytical8354]

Oxylus not being for your intro to fishing makes sense with what already exists.

[@DrivingInFocus]

Oxylus is not that hard to unlock. Tranquilize and capture wild animals in orb valis. Oxylus can detect the tokens for syndicates during the syndicate missions. It also saves you from spending ostron standing on the blue dye for fishing. Syndicate missions should be done after daily standing limit has been reached. New players should buy Vosfor packs when able and exchange for arcanes in sanctum anotomica.

[@ADway-hn7qu]

Did they also fix the issue where the Sahasa won't use dig unless you stand still for a few seconds? Before Dig would just never activate because you were moving around so much.

[@Brozime]

It will dig unless it’s so far away it’s teleporting in my experience

[@awstonn]

Ran EDA this week with a Dethcube Prime with no added EHP mods and it only died once. Personally I find modding for EHP is just wasting mod slots. You can get so much power from adding more bond mods. (Obviously besides shields for that specific bond). And even if they do go down I’ve been able to get them back in less than 10 seconds most of the time. Also worth noting when your companion goes down your duplex bond clones stay up.

[@HaveYouTriedGuillotines]

You are really underestimating what Duplex Bond and a non-Elusive stance mod can do on various animal companions. There are videos of the vulpa nuking entire groups of steel path eximus heavy gunners. The Predasites/Kubrows have builds that can do this too, all of them can do quite a lot of damage. They are capable of being more durable than you think, as well. If you're playing a tanky frame with link mods, they will sometimes not go down at all, and if you're running a support-y frame with a lot of crowd control, it's a no brainer to set them up for damage, same as the hounds.

[@InnocentiusLacrimosa]

Frenzied posture also keeps companions moving and there is a mod that knocks down everyone they move next to. Combine with rad and cold and there is pretty heavy CC going on also at the same time to increase survivability.

[@RossKyle95]

Also can just run pack leader and just forgo all defensive mods with one slot

[@300y1]

Not only that, but Synth Deconstruct for a 25% chance for health orbs to drop on injured enemies is insane for frames that use equilibrium.

[@Brozime]

In actual gameplay and not just clip farming the beast companions just die all the time if you let them loose in content of any threat. Duplex bond is fine but has limited use as many frames have no reason to spam out the clones and the ones that do also normally kill everyone when they do it making the clones kinda obsolete

[@HaveYouTriedGuillotines]

@@Brozime I'm using them in actual gameplay, and you are factually wrong. They do die, but A: At normal steel path levels, not enough to matter, and B: So do the drones if you don't unequip their weapons. Drones are even squishier. And in the case of the Vulpa, it really doesn't matter if they do die. They will keep spreading spores regardless, and keep providing various passive benefits like Fetch. The reality is that the vast majority of people aren't running 5 hour long games and fighting level 9999 enemies, and no content rewards that. The pets stay alive more than not in normal gameplay, especially if you're actively using the many, many abilities that debuff and provide crowd control. Realistically, I have to wonder what you're doing that your pet dies so much, when you're the guy that constantly plugs Zephyr. If you're playing a frame like that, the whole room should be locked down and in the process of dying at all times (though that'll also mess with melee pets, but it's not like having them attack in that scenario is hurting anything is the point). "Many frames" doesn't mean anything, and those types of words go both ways. "Most frames" can at least be set up to spam abilities, and benefit from doing so. The only frames I'm not triggering duplex bond on consistently are ones like Lavos who don't use energy, and lavos is a giant sack of HP and status procs, meaning pets survive just fine with him. You of all people should know better, since you run negative energy meta, and you've been doing so since before it was sustainable for most people (E. G back when you needed a pocket trin to do it, and DE wasn't handing out energy arcanes like Halloween candy). Brozime, you're living in a bubble, and you have been for a couple years now. Warframe is not the game you think it is. You need to get out of the KZbin meta badly. I know I'm wasting my breath and you're not going to change, but it's a simple fact that the game you think you're playing just doesn't exist anymore.

As a lazy person then, understand that the video, and visual medium on which you left the comment, is specifically designed to go even one step further: it shows you what a thing does, thinks about it, and then makes a judgment as to whether that was worth the opportunity cost of not doing something else instead. All of your time is saved. If you did want to actually turn your brain on for a moment, you could of course realize that this extra amount of information - the judgment - actually provides more data to feed into your mental calculations. Not only do you get to see what it does, you can also take the reasoning behind its efficacy and decide if those reasons are compatible with your own hierarchy of values. But, you know, since you like to think for yourself I'm sure you figured all of that out already.

So many mods I have no idea where to get...

[@mike_ere]

Making all the beast companions not attack is so stupid and objectively wrong

[@Jubumby]

So Panzer or Nautilus?

[@MILDMONSTER1234]

Panzer is a better primer unless you have helstrum for Naut

[@claytonriley1137]

I've never agreed more. There are alot more options but the goat is and will always be the panzer

[@noahedenborg4221]

just a side note if any ¨new player build¨ is shown with the rad mods then its not new player them mfs are gotten SUPER LATE

[@Brozime]

Yes and no. I do go over that you can just use various dual stats to get the same build but you have access to that mod quite easily once you catch up with the MSQ which is very fast now.

[@LazyLame666]

This rework took a weird turn, I went from using Smeeta for leveling/farming and Panzer for viral/survival to using mainly Panzer. Sometimes I use Smeeta when I need to level bunch of stuff. Sahasa for Mesa for bounties like once in a blue moon. But I just use Panzer 99.9% of the time. I feel like I went from using two companions to using one. And yes more of them are usable, but why should I bother getting them and building them when Panzer exists.

[@Zevox144]

Because the utilities are different now? Panzer's basically *the* viral primer but that's just the thing it's the best at, and not even exactly necessary when nourish is right there being *really* good on just about every frame, assuming you can't already cc or kill everything outright regardless.

[@LazyLame666]

​@@Zevox144 don't get me wrong this can be caused by builds I use, warframes I play and my style of play, but I don't see much interesting utility. Only exception is wyrm (which I don't have yet), but most of builds I use rely on themselves for energy so they don't brick in circuit. I actually play the game to shoot the weapons and press buttons so my companion getting kills is funny, but not something I need. Panzer isn't just viral primer. Using Martyr Symbiosis in missions where its annoying or bad when you die like arbitrations and EDA is really good utility. And if you are using Nourish you probably don't need any of the energy generating companions on this list either.

New mesa build? 🤔🤔

[@ArmagedoomGames]

I think some content is realy missing, we have a “overguard killer” that is so strong that can kill high priority targets alone in 60m RADIUS!! and the pharaoh that does the biggest dmg by far I dont think panzer its that good anymore, manly using the elusive mods that takes the dmg potential away ( so use a sentinel ) the dmg and loot bonus is that make then great If you are a new player you need dmg and “help” to deal with thing, so dont focus manly on having a buff from your companion Last thing, we NEED a 3 part companion rework for the moas and hounds, they are the newest ones and they are HORRIBLE Thx for the video

[@Brozime]

Companion damage should be the last thing a new player is working on the main output of your Warframe should be your focus early

[@anthonychase6906]

@@Brozime Is this top 10 best companions in the game in your opinion or top 10 best for new players?

@@anthonychase6906 The comment I replied to brought up new players but this list is sort of both because the new player answer is Diriga

[@Metal_Sign-Friday_Patchouli]

i think you can put Magnetic on your Panzer and he’ll help you kill overguard too.

[@ArmagedoomGames]

@@Brozime Im not saying we need ONLY dmg, but if you want only status and CC, you dont need a panzer or a beast at all, and if you WANT dmg, your choice Will not be a panzer. Beast is great because they offer dmg, sustain and help in the fights…let the dogs out in the sanctun anatomica and you will see what im talking about I think new players want all the help they can get For the veteran players wanting to min-max dont use those in the video The video is great but players need to see the rest of the options, mainly when they are alot better

I don’t think that though Limbo or Banshee are the worst in the game right now

[@vost2916]

He has never said that Koumei is the worst frame in the game. Stop putting words into his mouth.

[@thethumblessn00b19]

He said she’s TRYING to be. Not that she IS the worst. Banshee is definitely lower. Limbo also got meganerfed by overguard. She’s just not mega s tier so ppl are seething with copium still

[@nguyencaotri3879]

Man, Carrier Prime fell off, it didn't even make the list

[@lerosallyn9279]

Would like to point out that Hunter Synergy is currently bugged and does help activate Tenacious Bond. Until this is fixed, gna be using other companions cause this is quite a significant bug

[@lerosallyn9279]

Suggest ehHighly suggest everyone making posts about it cause this is a big issue that DE has identified in forums but no patch fixes have come through

[@lerosallyn9279]

Also, no Pharoah Predasite is kinda Sus ngl. After the Tenacious Bond Hunter Synergy bug fix, it would be able to use Tenacious Bond, Reinforced Bond, Respurceful Retriever, Group Viral Priming and decent dmg. Far better than Sahasa or Huras who are more niche compared to the general gameplay utility that Pharoah provides

Um, the starter Vulklok build can't be a starter. Radiated reload only drops from the entrati labs. Surely you know that right? edit: Just watched a couple more seconds. You do know that, which makes your decision to include that much more stupid.

oh my god, you mean new players that could just get one from a clan mate who probably has hundreds of them? Or something called, friends? Oh my god! I never thought of that before! What a foreign concept to cynical people who love to find problems!
