no, and sure thing

[@cheesejuice_]

well said. YOUR taxes. lmao

[@Alisa-lisa-0]

In fact I love her and always did, I just hated how gimmicky and buggy she felt, but after this augment, Loyal Merulina, I loved to be able to play her and have been using her for almost anything as she is my "comfy pick". Btw I did read on reddit that armor archon shards do buff merulina's armor, making it last way longer, and tried it and I think it actually works as I feel it's way more tanky. However I'm not theorycrafter, so it might be a placebo, but I really do feel it does work.

[@gerferies]

Oh I will. I got Yareli, Zephyr and Banshee this week for Archimedia. All 3 aren't liked by me, but I feel like Yareli is the one I didn't play at all, so forma'd she goes.

[@walkertang]

Then there's me who's gotten so used to riding Merulina that playing normal frames feels wrong >_>

[@icecoldpython59]

[@user-hl3kh7wq7n]

Before loyal merulina I feel not thing is wrong with Yareli(cuz she is the first frame I play after a long quiet from warframe) but after the augment came out I quickly realised that I just forget what normal is.

[@TPCvsJDU]

I could never but genuinely like the fact that y'all enjoyed this beauty of a frame. Her kits has been Litty/nice to me Im just not a k drive fan but no worries now

[@Denisjaguar99]

The first time I tried her I liked the kit except the 2, I am not fond of k-drive. Then when I heard people saying she's trash I said to myself they do not know how to play her or they do not like her kit. For a week now I decided to go again with her and using Loyal Merulina, doing a steelpath is fun. Farming void angel with her. I use her kit with no change. Did archon with a group and can tell you I was not the one dying.

[@ThePoisonLotus]

Thank you SO MUCH for this video! I've been a Yareli fangirl since I saw her OG concept, and Loyal Merulina FINALLY makes her the waterbender magical girl that I've always wanted her to be! And I've been in DIRE need of a build around Loyal Merulina, so this came at the perfect time

[@NihilisticTings]

Unironically annoying

[@InnocentiusLacrimosa]

Have fun 😁 we can all enjoy the game as we want.

[@espyname1977]

I really wish Merulina was a tap/hold power, one being riding, and one being the new "pet" version, and hope that when Yareli gets a rework they do that (much like Inaros got one of his augments wrapped into base kit)

[@user-hl3kh7wq7n]

I been struggling on whether say it or not then I see your comment, that's just what I always thinking about when ever I saw people be thankful to having loyal merulina. The exist of that augment is just a prove to how big the problem is with merulina but most people see it as a cure and be satisfied with it.

[@ainsliebradley3716]

Yareli with gloom can tank at level cap on her Merulina I did a full cap disruttion with her and one other person

[@hexerin]

Something to note about Riptide, that is important to properly making a decision about injecting another ability over it: Any enemy within is considered "killed by cold damage" on death, even if the Riptide's cold damage isn't the actual source of the killing blow. This has very obvious synergy with Archon Flow, for energy orb generation. I can attest from personal experience that it's extremely strong, I basically have infinite energy on her due to this synergy.

[@theta-rx2]

I love merulina so much honestly, i really enjoy just the idea of it and honestly its pretty great when you learn how to weave on and off of it where needed, especially paired with its one augment that gives you the super fire rate buff.

[@chriscooper1449]

I still want some of the canadian turbo drugs they were taking when someone said 'guys. you know how awful k drives are on open world? why don't we make a k drive frame for our indoor tilesets' and everyone was just like sounds good buddy

I've been playing Yareli for years and it's nice to see her finally get some love, though I don't use her new augment that much because Merulina Guardian is such a nice thing to have.

[@ImpulsiveBacon]

I have started playing Yareli again after putting a forma on her when she came out. Since watching this video, i have since put a second forma on her and an Umbral forma. glad i watched this

[@hexerin]

Couple things not mentioned about Aquablades: - Its effected area is a donut around Yareli. There's a (small) gap in the center (where Yareli stands) where enemies can't be hit. While this normally never really is an issue that crops up, it's important to know (especially if you're running Infested missions). Also, the donut's height is quite significant, allowing you to hit things above/below by a surprising distance. - Aquablades can only strike a given enemy three times per second. If you look closely at the demonstration of it in the video (6:00), you can easily see this happening on the Heavy Gunners. This restriction is individually tracked per enemy, so it's also not really something that matters in realistic gameplay. Still something worth knowing, however.

[@wolterwhite5293]

Bro, you awesome 😎, keep doing this❤

[@fryinghardhat5152]

Somethings to point out: Sea Snare damage buff is affected on eximus units and thraxes even tho there is no animation (Edit: Damage Buff does not affect Demolyst enemies) Surging Blades is not buffed by Roar so I would highly recommend using Eclipse instead of roar if you're building with that augment Loyal Merulina gives you Stagger Resistance but NO Knockback Resistance so use Primed Sure Footed/Handspring if you're wanting to deal with fire eximus units

[@hassanawada1736]

honestly if ur not a sheep from a toxic youtuber that just says NO to yareli, then u know she is a tier frame

[@lnkrishnan]

I have an idea for riptide - usual Melee Influence Shenanigans

[@rgilbert3652]

Just forma my Yareli and with the new augment makes her so much fun. Especially with the dual toxocyst 😊

[@MrV1r00zz]

what weapons would u recommend for the loyal build in general both low mr and higher? great video made me pick yareli and absolutely love her!

[@StartouchArts]

Finally building Yareli now that Loyal Merulina is out, and I'm wondering if a Viral Tempest build would be good, especially with 2 green shards to fully strip with Tempest Barrage. Just not sure how to build something like that or if keeping higher efficiency would be worth it for more constant Sea Snares from Merulina. I imagine fully stripping armor and inflicting viral and damage vulnerability, then walking up with Aquablades out would deal a pretty hefty amount of damage; all while keeping a Helminth that fits Yareli's water theme.

[@Glamador]

I got Yareli in my EDA rotation this week and it will be the first and hopefully only time I have to equip Loyal Merulina. Ironically, I got no good secondaries... I hate it! I never know when she dies! Except that _I_ die shortly after!

[@SenaMeushi]

I've been having a lot of fun with my meme Yareli build where I take Tempest Barrage over Aquablades. Taking up two slots for augments doesn't feel great, but sucking everything into my Tempest Barrage's which full strip and applies Viral has seemed pretty strong. Plus all my abilities are very wet. It also just synergizes well with the Catabolyst. Grouping enemies for the grenade reload does insane damage.

[@StartouchArts]

I was planning on doing that when Yareli finishes building actually! However, I wasn't sure if Viral Tempest would've been better than Riptide or Aquablades considering the ring of Slash damage, but now that you mention Catabolyst which I really want to try out w/ the augment, guess I'm chucking Aquablades for the storm.

[@Diesense]

Despair incarnon is amazing with riptide. I wasn’t the hugest fan of riptide for ages due to it still making enemies trapped still take damage individually but also most AOE weapons launching some enemies out before you can kill them. When I found out the despair can still do crazy AOE damage to every enemy at once but also doesn’t even let one enemy escape, I knew that was going to be THE weapon to stick to. As a yareli main for a long time now ive become almost a secondary specialist but the despair is the one I say is the best

[@UpstageBeast]

How it compare to lex incarnon ?

[@Diesense]

@@UpstageBeast I haven’t used lex incaron yet. After levelling that weapon I have had no desire to pick it up again but the incarnon form does look pretty nice, the only help I can give you here is that the despair is going to be easier to get charges faster to transform the weapon

[@haroldpedro726]

Same here. I mainly use secondary because of her. My main weapon was akarius but right now I'm using ocucor or catabolyst

[@quantumphysicsofficial]

Brief respite with 130 efficiency and 555 shield is interesting

[@hyper9374]

I got her as an option for elite deep archimedea, we'll see if i can get myself to level her, forma her, all that stuff. But the -75% duration modifier is brutal.

[@NuchiAsaki]

You can use Dethcube with Energy Generator and Helstrum with gas damage instead of Equilibrium to free up a mod slot.

[@kyngzer0752]

As a Yareli main, I thank you for realizing her power

[@Chromus505]

I havent tried the new merulina augment. Imagining playing Yareli without being on her board feels uncanny.... plus the other augment is just so good

[@NatiiixLP]

With the augment, what do you think of subsuming over her 1? Do you feel like you still manually cast it a lot? Because I heard some people suggest that, and it kinda makes sense to me if Merulina casts it for you.

[@ghouldonic]

manifold bond on helstrum diriga with sheild charger and her 90percent damage no no will make her very very tankie I use mesa with her 3 with diriga set up and I'm just thinking yareli might work the same

Does the Royal Merulina augment still give you the knockdown immunity you had while riding merulina? I couldnt find a straight answer

[@Whysical]

The guy over there: imma just use rev and be lazy

[@MaddawgTL]

Last night i tried her with the loyal meryilina augment and i noticed i was getting the 200% boost to her primary weapon. I was using the Burston Prime incarnon and was going from the normal orange crits to all red crits when her passive kicked in. Tried a few different missions, samething. So i am thinking the augment also also allows primary's to crit harder.

[@homerlol9058]

Does it only happen with the new augment?

[@MaddawgTL]

@@homerlol9058 I am not sure, but once I had loyal merulina going is when I noticed the red crits. Going to try it some more once I get off work.

[@OpexRL]

I would personally infuse Nourish on the first ability because with Loyal Merulina you will passively cast sea snares with Merulina, even if you replace it with Nourish

[@Thaylien]

Huh, not changed my opinion on Yareli, because I liked her. Definitely changed my opinion on Surging Blades, with the Kompressa interaction.

[@jairokasso9351]

the boat should be a hold cast ability, so you can just have it follow you in corridors and ride it on open worlds, that way the augment should just focus on a buff into either choice instead of making the augment be the choice. is a no brainer but my guess is that so little players use her that wf is not interested on giving her a very well thought out rework/tweak. seriously hold/tap marelina would have solved the thing instead of sacrificing a mod slot for that, maybe they will slowly build up to a full rework once her prime drops, im wishing it is a grendel/hydroid level tweak in wich she is consolidated, not jsut goodnough

[@slacksthegreat]

It took so much effort to get Yareli. Beating the quest. Starting a dojo. Farming all the resources. It was worth it.

[@sevensaske]

i disagree on the shield gating, i dont think yareli need it, maybe if you go to level cap but how many people do it? i think loyal merulina is enough, maybe add rolling guard at max

[@McSmurfy]

I use her without helminth, but if I would use it, the 4th is probably the one to remove.

I use to hate this frame so much i never farm her, then i said f it and got her built and i still hated her but when i put that augment on her dear god i fell in love. Thinking how good this frame could be if it was built into her kit and not some bandade mod. She underrated and i did the new dis mission level cap with her and it was a cake walk.

[@cernos7230]

The Damage Vulnerability only applies one time, once it wears off you can't reapply it again and only the CC applies. Why does this happen? I dunno

[@walkertang]

Are you using sea snares frequently enough to heal merulina? Ability strength increases the amount merulina guardian heals btw

[@rubencp93]

I subsumed Gloom over her 1 back when she came out, because I could press 1 (Gloom), and then hop on Merulina. I had no idea it increased the damage dealt. :o I also has no idea the Augment for her 3 interacted that way with her bubbles. That's so damn funny! I'm so glad DE gave you early access to Dante. I wouldn't have found your channel otherwise! I already stole you Citrine build, and she's insane, and now I'm gonna give Yarely another chance. I love the kawaii UwU frame, I just don't really know how to play her... edit: Wondering if subsuming over her 3 isn't the best option, since you're not using her Augment for that ability. You're using the Bubbles to increase weapon damage, and weapons have a longer range than her 3. At least her 4 can group enemies, and you can still cast 1 on them.

People will see this frame and meme about k-drive controls and assume that automatically makes her bad as if she hasn't gotten buffed in every single patch since she came out in 2021. Like. No, y'all, getting her is not that bad, and if you really hate K-drive so much you can literally actually complete the quest by doing nothing but grinding back and forth on the pipe behind the Fortuna entrance on the Vallis for an hour. No, she doesn't control that badly, just stop holding down sprint because she already moves plenty fast. Merulina is literally a stronger Warding Halo, the damage vuln of Sea Snares activates even on CC-immune enemies, Riptide is Vortex But Better, this girl is completely insane. Yareli's reputation reminds me of Revenant where for some reason people kept gaslighting themselves into thinking the frame was bad even though he is *literally invincible at all times and has max HP scaling ability kills on VIP targets,* because I guess some people just really don't want to stop playing Saryn long enough to actually play a frame themselves and just listen to what youtubers were saying on the patch day that introduced them and then never update their opinions a single time.
