Warframe | Ocucor & Gotva Prime ARE INSANELY STRONG | Steel Path | Build & Guide | Sentient Surge

[@_NO]

I really love your work and guides. You and flo made me get out of the trenches from doing 40 damage and barely killing lvl60 enemies and struggling to end game and lvl cap runs easily. I always look for your builds and they were always useful and effective. All the love and keep going 🙏🏻

[@ThePalebloodDoll]

agreed, Kyaii and Flo are the main people i go to for builds

[@RokysCZ]

For Gotva, corrosive + cold is also very good, its damage is primarly puncture = adding CC on enemies and cold = adding CD, and also perfect match is Primary Frostbite adding more MS and CD. I might prefer it to Viral/HM since Jade Shadows because of buffed enemy HP, but thats just me. As always, top tier video guide, it just keeps getting better.

[@lucasramirez396]

yea i tried this also and i was surprised how well it performed, im usually not a fan of frostbite builds but it was able to handle steel path disruption really well.

[@gj8622]

Was gonna come down and comment this. Immaculate sir

[@Jazzimus]

dagath is a hella underrated weapons platform, plus she is super smooth to play as her abilities flow really well into one another. you might have mispoke at 6:56, her Doom provides a critical damage buff, not a critical chance buff.

[@Havok91]

And it's only active as long as Grave Spirit isn't on cooldown. Very important note since her Spectral Spirit augment (which I vote as one of the best augments in the game) DOES put Grave Spirit on cooldown.

[@kyaii]

yea, meant crit damage not crit chance... thank you!

[@FrizzleFrazz23]

@@Havok91it goes on cooldown after its duration?

[@DoveAndGrenade79AD]

@@FrizzleFrazz23it has no duration, it lasts until you should die, at which point it will make you invincible and start a cooldown

[@NinjaSyao]

​@@FrizzleFrazz23 Adding to what Dove said, the augment flips this around and lets you go into her invincible state at command (during that time you'll also have the crit boost and any damage dealt by your weapons or abilities will apply the Doom effect) and then the entire ability goes on cooldown which you can shorten by killing enemies.

[@found6393]

I've recently been looking at my stable of dozen or so SP ready 'frames, and realizing, I only have a couple each of SP-ready primary, secondary, and melee weapons. I desperately need to expand that number, and...voila! Your video was excellently timed.

[@Marsormr]

Corrosive Cold Gotva; Cold makes the crits do more damage. Already has some punch-through, lets the cold also CC enemies too. Throw on Primary Frostbite and its a nice combo. Leave the viral/heat to your secondary, which usually apply those status effects much quicker than primaries.

[@josephstephen2456]

I run corrosive/cold Gotva Prime on my Biting Frost/Icy Avalanche Frost Prime Build and it’s just stupid destructive. Sometimes banging out 80,000 damage with red crits. I’m running Primary Merciless, Arcane Avenger and Molt Augmented too. Im not getting the kind of power out of my ocucor that I expected yet after 4 Forma… I’m running Galvanized Shot, Galvanized Diffusion, Lethal Torrent, Hornet Strike, 2 60/60 elementals, Sentient Surge, and Magnum Force. I have yet to get secondary encumber, maybe that’s my issue. It tears enemies up, but it takes forever to get my tendrils out on sorties and other higher level content because the single beam takes a whole clip to kill an enemy, which gets me one tendril for about 5 rounds, then I have to reload and start over. Wonder what I’m doing wrong.

[@wekono]

I like gotva's special going for crits and crit dmg, shits almost meta

[@Gehalo]

My favorite weapons platform frame to pair with Gotva is definitely Lavos with his valence formation augment, being able to add any additional element that has guarantee status procs is great.

[@sh0shin]

Soooo glad Sentient Surge is back with Naberus!!

[@samhescott348]

Honestly pistoleer on ocucor feels incredible as well. Having the peace of mind that you’ll NEVER run out of ammo is incredible.

[@voodoowoodpecker4320]

Gotva is amazing under Citrine 3

[@thedragonoffice8070]

Holy shit I'm a citrine main and I don't know how this didn't occur to me. I've gotta try this later.

[@inventor4279]

For gotva, i also reccomend volt, frost, ember and saryn with nourish so you get 2 extra statues base on gotva or citrine for the extra status chance

[@WaWestie]

People coming around on koumei not being as strong as people initially though is very comforting. From the first few SO runs i did with her, she feels like a new players introduction to why "+damage per unique status on target" is so good. She just felt kinda underwhelming.

[@nabismith8023]

my thoughts exactly. she is very underwhelming. most you tubers are just making content. plus they have access to all mods. her abilities need a buffer for sure. that web ability is ass. her signature gun is also trash.

[@WaWestie]

@@nabismith8023 exactly, and in saying all youtubers usually have all mods, exactly that, at MR30 being able to chuck a full build in her immediately with all mods needed and still feeling like that? New players might not recognise it but she definitely feels limp.

[@ruien6912]

Been using Gotva, Lex Incarnon and Prisma Ohmas on Koumei for trivial steel path farming. Her passive combined with Gotva (Corrosive/Cold) and Ohmas (Gas Elec) shred crowds and high health targets alike. You don't even really have to build Koumei offensively and just scale insanely with the decrees. Best Warframe for Omni Relic survival, probably the most fun I've had with a Warframe in a while.

[@LazyFramePrime]

Combined this video with your frost vid that included nourish subsume letting that take care of viral and allowing corr build on ocucor. Rivened it up with a multishot / cc riven allowing me to replace gambit and OH MY GOD. Maybe things won't explode as fast as the warframes you mentioned here, but was a good trade off with the overguard/cc from frost.

[@unwished8638]

I’ve heard this comment being said and I 100% agree, saying Koumei is a good “primer” is the biggest insult to her as companions or a secondary could do her job better while letting you pick a better frame. She needs a buff imo

[@beegyoshi1685]

no tf they couldn't what are you talking about both of those have access to limited number of elements (other than encumber which is a single target primer) unlike koumei and she has crowd control, survivability plus access to duviri decrees to carry her through level cap in addition to priming so i don't see how she could be bad (not that i wouldn't enjoy a buff though, no reason to not have a stronger warframe to play with)

[@nabismith8023]

she does. I lvl 30 her and put her away. waste of money imo.

[@jacksuvv]

Koumei is discount Epitaph

[@kuba-xy9hj]

Ocucor has really high riven dispo so i'd advice to go for +ms +fr riven and instead of going pistol gambit, go for avenger since it makes you have 100% cc while freeing up a mod slot

[@tonygables626]

This man goes for NON-riven build as not everyone wants to pay out the ass for a half decent riven when in theory it will only make great guns SLIGHTLY better, where as non riven builds are more accessible and just as effective and easier to build

[@kuba-xy9hj]

@@tonygables626 well, not SLIGHTLY better but a whole lot, like 2x the fire rate and 1.5x the multishot from 1 mod. With riven i can kill 20 chg eximus sp lvl 140 in a bullet jump with 4 tau parkour shards and praedos, rivenless it wouldn't be even close

[@NeroRedgraveXIII]

This baby rocks. I have a Cold, CC, CD, Neg Zoom - Riven and this thing melts SP.

[@Sodamachine62]

Im so glad i sold the mod for like 250 a few weeks ago. And now ive bought like 6 of them in case it goes back up in a couple months lol

[@D3VYN3]

Been using both a lot recently, gotva with hunter munitions is just 👌

[@brezn_4183]

Lavos' passive augment also feels nice with gotva

[@abra2133]

for gotva blast is also a good choice since it has huge upfront damage and procs a lot of statuses (perfect combo for blast)

[@NoStLinuxGaming]

Just a little correction: Vigilante Armaments is not an Exilus mod. But you can use Vigilante Supplies, which is probably the one you really meant. It also helps with the ammo, which is always nice for full auto weapons.

[@kyaii]

@NoStLinuxGaming yea i just misspoke

[@josephbeaton6959]

For the Gotva I wanted to tell you and anyone else wondering that you made the mistake of saying to out Vigilante Armaments under the Exilus Slot, It can't go there and I believe he meant to say Vigilante Supplies which is the same set bonus that gives the chance to Enchance Crit hits from Primary weapons

[@YourGrimReaper.]

Need a ocucor vid perfect

[@lucsoul2512]

Gotva with corrosive cold and primary frostbite is my go to and it's really good on boltor incarnon too

[@marqwastaken]

lethal torrent is currently better than pistol gambit for dps in regards to the ocucor. both fire rate and multishot are more damage multipliers to the ocucor vs. more crit chance

[@i_nvade8098]

Thanks dor a good video.

[@johnhalo8726]

These builds are fire

[@Sodamachine62]

I love the gotva so much

[@modifiedskull]

Gyre is the perfect frame for Gotva

[@Mandingy24]

Corrosive/Cold is probably better but Blast on the Gotva is kinda hilarious Also not sure if it would work well on the Ocucor since you would lose Flare, but for Dagath and the Grave Spirit build i love running Secondary Fortifier as coverage for the downtime while it's on cooldown

[@DaAijin28]

Bout Dagath, one of her biggest pluses on these weapons is boost to crit dmg

[@Spambot27374]

If you are gonna get a riven for ocucor go cc cd toxin or heat you want an element on it or you will have to sacrifice your galv ms mod heat or co mods

[@gokar377]

Can you try lavos with his new augment because it will make him the strongest weapon platform in the game

[@sentinelprime415]

really cool 👌

[@mekillu05]

when you are talking about saryn being ideal to use with the ocucor at about 6:35.. my question is what does toxic lash have to do with it? toxic lash only affects melees i thought

[@kyaii]

no it affects guns, watch the saryn video

[@mekillu05]

@@kyaii oh my.. will do. i never fully read toxic lash's description i guess. this whole time i thought it only worked on melees.. you've changed warframe for me alot today...

⁠I was under the impression that Toxic Lash was a melee buff as well… I think it used to be but has been reworked. 5 years ago I played Saryn a lot and specifically remember the ability description stating that it was for melee.

[@Crimswin]

For reference, crit chance doesn't stop scaling at 300%. It will keep going for higher and higher multipliers, they're all just red Not saying you should build crit on the gotva, just throwing that out there

[@JVie-y1t]

You're correct. The reason it's not worth doing with the gotva is that the shots with 300% crit chance don't get boosted by crit chance mods in turn. It's just an absolute 300% chance and the only way to upgrade those crits are the vigilante mods because they don't mess with the crit chance number, but simply have a separate roll that can upgrade the crit to the next tier.

[@ryanthewolf7823]

Hey kyaii, can you make a vid on the "new" panzer vulpaphyla? After the companion 2.0 rework its great, can use both tenacious and reinforced bond mods, whipe giving viral and not letting you die

[@Zodryn]

Since you mentioned Nova with Gotva, does Mprime inherit the red crits? Probably not as good as devouring attrition but would be quite cool.

[@user-wv9ni7bz3e]

do you find more value out of marginally increased cc with primed pistol gambit over the added multishot and fire rate from lethal torrent?

[@kyaii]

I agree swapping it for that is better!

[@Hthe]

Have you messed around with Galv Steel? I am pretty sure it is current bugged and is giving more crit chance than is labeled, I was able to orange crit with glaive P throw even though it should only have 83%, and couldn't orange crit with reg true steel despite it having a stronger bonus

if u have an ocucor riven u want cd and cc and then dont use the primed mods for cc and cd instead then use lethal torrent and primed heated charge

[@janovmi2]

The Ocucor build needs to be corrected. You are way better off with a secondary encumber, removing the need for modding viral (not to meantion the everpresent noursih that you will get in practically every public mission), leaving you with 2 free mod slots for elementalist or second heat mod for heat inherit or literary any other mod such as fire rate, faction mods etc if you fear that the viral will ramp up slowly, then fear not, it stacks everything to 10 very fast and usually the enemy dies even before, this way you can even strip armor with corrosive (and green shards)

[@yomii777]

Cascadia flare or secondary encumbered?

I find flare is better

[@corbtv]

Ocucor build is kinda wrong. You build ocucor around fire rate and cascadia empowered - especially on saryn or lavos. Cascadia flare gives 480% of 88 = 422 damage. Cascadia empowered is 750. Fortifier is also a consideration for niche cases.

[@idclol2883]

what about encumber?

[@teknyon]

So when should I use empowered over other arcanes

[@eduardojosafatfriasaguirre6385]

Have you tested it? I don’t have a full empower but for me encumber works best

[@atwarroyal8770]

No he is not wrong, damage by cascadia empowered doesn't stack with other mods such as crits , elementals ,eclipse ,weakspots , pistol elementalist , doesn't trigger xata, etc. It is like 750 dmg additive after all calculations to something like 10k damage each shot prob does.
