This is a repost of the Weekly Warframe from 3 days ago as dormi.zone was having issues at the time and the post didn't seem to federate. Apologies to lemmy.zip users for the duplicate!

Brutalism frame, a walking soviet era apartment building, "Why do I taste metal?" - Qorvex!

Passive: All primary, secondary, selective melee weapons (Glaives and Gunblades), and Crucible Blast wielded by Qorvex gain Core Exposure, granting them a +3 Punch Through bonus.
Chyrinka Pillar - Summon a Chyrinka Pillar that slows enemies. It pulses Radiation Damage with a guaranteed Status Effect.
Containment Wall - Contain the threat. Qorvex summons walls that slam together, damaging all enemies caught between them and inflicting Radiation Status.
Disometric Guard - Guard yourself and nearby allies against Status Effects. Each time Qorvex kills or assists in killing an enemy affected by Radiation Status, the number of Status Effects Disometric Guard can prevent increases.
Crucible Blast - Release a beam from Qorvex's Crucible Core. Each enemy struck suffers Radiation Damage with a guaranteed Status Effect. Enemies affected by Radiation Status explode in a chain reaction.

Acquisition: Main blueprint is acquired upon completion of Whispers in the Walls quest. Component blueprints are acquired from Sanctum Anatomica Bounties and can be purchased from Bird 3 of Cavia.

I'm gonna be honest, I need help understanding how to build him. 235% range and get back to neutral strength? At the moment I'm running 190% range and 120% strength (95%+growing power) and finding his KPM isn't good enough to self-sustain in Survival off kills alone. Last run I only pulled a bit over 60, and when I think that most of my Influence builds are 120-200, it's a letdown. Theoretically he should have parity with a 54k Influence if I hit just 6 targets with Crucible, so maybe my issue is I'm not picking the right tiles to camp.

Fused Crucible is interesting, as it's one of the more offensively-oriented invincibility effects in the game. Despite the nominal roll nerf, he's still quite mobile and responsive with enough parkour speed and Amalgam Diffusion on his pistol.

How many Tauforged Orange Shards are you running, and are you sacrificing anything for his energy economy? In my experience you need a lot of the extra damage you get from the shards, and you'll want to basically only use the new arcane that gives you universal orbs from enemies killed by radiation to solve your energy.

Otherwise, you probably actually wanna hit 280% range.

[–] sandriver@dormi.zone 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Just regular orange shards I've scrounged up from weeklies, I don't tauforge them because yellow shards are just too useful for my preferred build style, which is lots of parkour speed and a bit of casting speed.

Due to Fused Crucible's uncapped energy drain, six of my mods are going to energy economy: umbral fiber/intensify/energy battery, equilibrium, fleeting expertise, primed continuity, boreal's hatred. I have been and will continue to be spending all my pix chips on peely pix, so Universal Fallout is still only rank 1.

I'll try the opposite approach to energy economy and build around a core of neutral efficiency, duration and equilibrium, and layer things in if I'm still struggling with energy economy. I was aggressive with energy since I wanted a build ready for level cap Duviri and Constricted ETAs.

[–] djsoren19@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't think equilibrium is even necessary? at the very least I don't believe it interacts with universal orbs. It might just be the case that you'll want to wait until you have more of Universal Fallout.

Also how long are you staying in Fused Crucible? I typically try to hop out of it to reset every ~30 sec or so.

[–] sandriver@dormi.zone 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Equilibrium sure does affect universal orbs, basically doubling Universal Fallout from 2.5 to 5.25 energy per enemy per rank. When I put it like that I think I can build around that.

How are you managing your energy?

[–] djsoren19@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 23 hours ago

Oh damn I never knew. Guess I'm also gonna have to ditch Flow for Arcane Battery to fit in Equilibrium.

I bought a couple copies of Universal Fallout, I have it up to r3 just in case I need the revive. I've been managing fine with that + Primed Flow + Primed Continuity, I basically generate enough orbs that as long as I drop off Crucible before the drain gets too nutty its fine.

Your range is good but your power strength is lacking, you probably want to hover around 200% (Molt Augmented helps a lot). He's EXTREMELY tile dependent, I wasn't joking when I said he's a tower defense frame. You really need to plan where to put down his Pillars for maximum killing efficiency, with the augment they are what does most of the work and your beam is just kind of there to enable their functionality, you don't even need it to actually hit things. He's far from a top frame, you ain't competing with Khora or Saryn for KPM, but the augment actually made him into a solid enough AoE frame with a rather unique playstyle which is cool!

[–] Keegen@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 days ago

Since his last post Qorvex got a new toy in the form of Fused Crusible. He's now the ultimate tower defense frame, pop down your pillars, activate 4 and watch as things around them explode for cascading damage! Very effective in any high enemy density environment, completely useless against single foes.

[–] supersonicstork@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Qorvex is thematically pretty cool, and has big Cherno Alpha energy. I feel like using any energy colour except a light blue (to evoke Cherenkov radiation) feels wrong.

Unfortunately, he runs counter to how hyper mobile modern Warframe is. Not really his fault, but it does suck to have to : Pillar > Wall > Blast, when I could just gun.

He's by no stretch a bad frame though, and the containment wall augment for armour strip in combination with his passive can make some nice combos. Also built in PSF and status immunity is nice.

Of course this all changes with subsumes, but you can make any frame good enough with subsumes.

[–] Halasham@dormi.zone 3 points 2 days ago

Pair him with the Latron or Chukkar modded with Semi-Rifle Cannonade and Primary Accuity. Wall-slam everything then get combo-headshots for tens of millions of damage per enemy.

Some Qorvex player smashed through the elite deep archimedia I did last week. Did 90% of the damage in the mirror defense and assassination with the microwave. Totally crazy.
