I agree, it would be nice if his weapon had an exilus slot (and preferably already unlocked/) so we can put a silencer mod in without sacrificing damage. An alternative you could do if you are okay with holding position more is you can change his evade with ivaras cloak arrow instead so you have a duration based, refreshable cloak instead. It does force you to stay in a small zone though, so maybe not good for cascade.
I'm also not a fan of his evade, it's strong and has it's uses but in practice doesn't always work, especially because you need direct headshot kills. If it runs out for whatever reason and you're playing against time you also run into more issues because there's no time to stack it up which makes surviving become sooo difficult. The rest of his kit I absolutely love though, if you have any ideas what could be subsumed over his 3 for survivability any tips would be great. PS. If they removed the cooldown on his 3 I wouldn't dislike it as much.
same experience, i ended up not liking his 3. i've yet to try other subsumes yet, but i always hear that ivara or octavia's abilities are great. i imagine ivara's cloak might be a better fit since there's also a new arcane and mod that gives buffs when we're invis.
i used rifle cannonade and the vile precision mod the locked fire ratw lets me get -90% recoil with out a penalty. as well as critical delay not optimal, but vert comfy for me. i also use nourish ans energy nexus to sustain myself. i went for 60s durations on my build
I did a solo cap with cyte, I got some suggestions, your dmg fell faster because you didnt use a primer. For secondary I used epitaph with the usual primer setup, but modded it for viral, heat, mag, rad, ms, and silent mod. For primary, used rubico prime, lol yeah the news mod and arcanes made single shot op. For the downtime where you are not killing, using shade would be the best companion so you stay safe until you move to next room. You should take a look at the new mods and arcanes. While cyte doesnt have exilus slot in his exalted, I sacrifice 1 slot for husk. Good run!
The lack of a dedicated primer was definitely a factor in damage drop. However, Knell Prime was really a blessing. I’ll give Rubico a shot though. I’ve heard great things about Perigale too, just wished it’d get primed soon ahah :)
I actually did, and I highlighted that build in my prior video. I found it to be around the same damage, maybe a little more. However, it was very punishing, and just didn’t work all too well in level cap :)
It is so underwhelming for me this new frame. The only thing I was hyped up about was the invisiblity helminth to slap it on Banshee and be perma invis with the weakpoints from her 2, but that doesn't work. So I'm kinda disappointed.
I don’t mean to sound rude. But been playing warframe for 10 years and that applies to so many frames. Gyre shouldn’t exist because volt does. Any tanky frame shouldn’t exist cause we had rhino from the start. Nezha shouldn’t exist cause we have ember the first fire frame. Every frame has there role and purpose and just because people prefer X over Y shouldn’t be told X frame shouldn’t exist because we already had Y. I mean should they take away all the rifles in warframe now that braton prime incarnon hits like a truck. Same with lato incarnon so all single pistols shouldn’t exist. Sorry just you can have multiple frames that fill the same role doesn’t mean they’re useless and pointless just gives everyone options for things to have fun with ❤
I think he’s an experimental frame. He’s not bad, just not my thing. I love snipers in other games, but I think he needs a couple tweaks to make it out of the weird spot he’s in :)
lol it’s also an aoe weapon so you lose a good portion even if it is multi if you check its direct damage to aoe ratio , only one of the two rockets is multi , and you only gain 28% of the overall damage to be affected by the multi co so no you do not use it on accelera If you want it to kill you go the acuity route and see it burn through stuff haha
folks, I never said acceltra is a good match for cyte I simply said that CO is multiplicative on acceltra. Who said anything about radial damage as far as I know CO affects direct impact. It seems folks are looking down so let me tell you I have around 4000 hours in the game so I might be knowing what I am saying.
It’s not the fact that Acceltra is bad for Cyte 09, that’s besides the point. Galvanized Aptitude doesn’t increase damage enough on the weapon to warrant its use. The radial damage is unaffected by the mod. Also, it’s only multiplicative to half of the rockets, so you’re wasting mod space. A flat damage buff from serration is much better.

I’d take any invisibility over cytes evade
DARTHMUFIN COMMENTED! Yea the exiles slot would make a big difference. Also, I’ll give the Ivara Cloak a try :)
Counter argument, sniper go brrrrr
Yea this argument wins 🫡
damn i have been playing cyte non stop since he came out and i just now see that he has a freezy granade
Yea man, it’s an amazing tool. If you have energy for it, spam it at a crowd for priming. It makes headshots so much easier! :)

Yea the cooldown and need for direct headshot kills made it so annoying. Im gonna give the Octavia Rollerball a try another time :)

I’ll try out Nourish over Evade soon. It’s so finicky :(

w helpful and straightforward video
W man’s comment (when can I be famous like you?)
It would be cool if we could put his mags on inf ammo weapons, it could be duration based
Yea it would be. I was so sad when I couldn’t use it on Tenet Cycron :(
@7BLANK oof with something else, the new acuity mods don't work on weak points made by citrine :( so no insane red crits on status weapons
NOOOOO. That’s such a shame. I would’ve loved to theory craft that :(
maybe you should try acuity build on Neutralize.
I actually did, and I highlighted that build in my prior video. I found it to be around the same damage, maybe a little more. However, it was very punishing, and just didn’t work all too well in level cap :)
I went Purple electric shard on primary it work with his rifle. I put 1 toxin mod on the rifle so it turn into corrosive
Thats a very smart idea. Im not sure if I’d try it anytime soon because I’m playtesting other frames, but thanks for the heads up!
Try Perigale. In hands of Cyte-09 it shreds.
I don’t have Perigale, but I’ll definitely try to get it soon. I’ve heard a lot of good things about it. :)
No disruption with cyte-09?
I was gonna do a disruption level cap with him but the 3 day craft time screwed me over cause im not gonna be home for Christmas
It would take way too long to get out in a timely manner :)
I hope you get around to it :)
Hes a good frame, but I prefer aerial support hildryn
The AC-130 reigns supreme :)
It is so underwhelming for me this new frame. The only thing I was hyped up about was the invisiblity helminth to slap it on Banshee and be perma invis with the weakpoints from her 2, but that doesn't work. So I'm kinda disappointed.
I tested that too, I was disappointed. I think DE needs to loosen up their definition of “weak spot” so that more synergies can come into play :)
He feels pointless to me, there is literally nothing he does that multiple other frames don't do and faster
With cyte I think they were just tryna make a weird, niche but fun frame, and they succeeded imo

acceltra fell of at higher levels because you are not using galv aptitude on a weapon which has multiplicative CO 🤷🏻♂️
lol it’s also an aoe weapon so you lose a good portion even if it is multi if you check its direct damage to aoe ratio , only one of the two rockets is multi , and you only gain 28% of the overall damage to be affected by the multi co so no you do not use it on accelera
If you want it to kill you go the acuity route and see it burn through stuff haha
Yea so that doesn’t work because the primary source of damage is AOE. Galvanized Aptitude doesn’t affect the radial damage.
Acceltra is not a good match for cyte, any aoe weapon hurt his playstyle
folks, I never said acceltra is a good match for cyte I simply said that CO is multiplicative on acceltra. Who said anything about radial damage as far as I know CO affects direct impact.
