    CHANGES AND FIXES
    35.0.9 (Jan 17th 2023)
    • Dreamer's Wrath patched to do +32% critical damage on Tennokai
    • Violet shards for melee critical damage were apparently overperforming. You may notice weaker results now

      Hey Kengi, just wanted to point out that you could drop Merit from the Staff in favor of more damage or what have you, since the Merit on Praedos would still make it work in 4 hits. I prefer Killing Blow in that slot, myself, and don't mind the light hit combos at all because of their unique properties.

    Opportunities Reach in practice works for me really well, since frequently tennokai pops up as the guy in melee dies and is wasted. They extra 4 seconds lets you get to the next guys faster and results in the least wasted tennokai for me.

  • @DarkmegaGaming
    @DarkmegaGaming 5 месяцев назад +104

    One of the best parts about tennokai strikes is that they animation cancel. You can use it to cut certain long combo attacks short or use it out of the middle of a fast/long distance gap closer to give yourself some distance. like say wise razor's spinny dash-slam, or vengeful revenant's swirly spin-cut.
    You can also burn it to use a power slam for free to open up some space in a large group.

    • @bananaballs3205
      @bananaballs3205 4 месяца назад +4

      It also works with primers. Once you get the tennokai attack, quickly swap to your primer to get some stacks in. Use a normal attack to quickly swap to your melee and then, do an animation cancel with your heavy tennokai attack.

  • @oriondezagrats4228

    It really must be emphasized just how much Tennokai makes heavy attacks and light attacks feel like they're not in constant conflict with each other. Again, I wish they'd done it differently, but this works well enough all the same.
    If you use Sevagoth's Shadow at all, I cannot stress enough just how much you should be putting Tennokai on the claws.

    I'm very interested to see your take on glaives after these changes. The exilus slot existing makes some difference and I think it will be interesting to see what the builds look like for Xoris, Glaive Prime, and Cerata. I love how much detail you give in your reasoning and what works together instead of what I see a lot of other people doing of "do this" without the reasons why to do that and why not to do other things

    • @FelisImpurrator
      @FelisImpurrator 5 месяцев назад +10

      Glaives are amazing with Tennokai... But you need to either sac two slots on a cramped weapon type, or just deal with RNG and run Opportunity's Reach alone. The 4s window is the only way to get the throw off in time under most circumstances, barring warcry abuse or something.

    @That-Lu-Jan 5 месяцев назад +33

    Currently, one of the very few melee weapons with access to a 1.0 follow-through is the Nami Solo Incarnon. With tennokai, you can get up to an 11.5m 360-degree heavy attack that also force procs slash on every enemy hit. Combine that with melee vortex, and you effectively have a supercharged version of the pre-nerf telos boltace. It's easily one of, if not the strongest melee in the game right now.

    Sadly, the only Tennokai that seems to work reliably on thrown melee is Opportunity's Reach because of the double window, even if the range doesn't work very well. Preserving the combo counter all the time on a glaive is worth it though, especially with Naramon or Xoris. Xoris can also use the electric arcane because it force procs, so that's very fun.
    Meanwhile, Discipline's Merit seems to be the best in slot for slow melee weapons, or stances with long single inputs like the Crushing Ruin forward right click hammer combo, because they can't roll the Tennokai dice as often.

    One additional note about Tennokai is that it's basically completely useless on Baruuk. Tennokai cannot be triggered by hitting enemies with the waves of damage that Baruuk emits from his melee, you have to make physical contact with the enemy in order to have a chance of gaining a Tennokai attack. I finished an endurance run of The Circuit in Duviri with Baruuk and during that time, I was only able to proc tennokai on the handful of enemies that survived long enough for me to get within punching range. Over the course of the 20 or so waves I did, I procced Tennokai maybe 5 times.

    The other benefit of Opportunity's Reach is that it makes using Tennokai with Glaives, Wolf Sledge, and Slam-focused Weapons easier and more consistent, since it gives you time to recall your last hit and ready the next one, whether thats charging another throw or jumping up for another slam. This makes weapons like Tenet Envoy and Sampotes much more potent and easier to use their gimmicks, and makes using glaives a lot more comfortable and allows you to make the most of your Glaive Prime.

    Hmm. Baruuk in particular can actually benefit from Discipline quite a lot, too. Why? His heavy is actually very useful for killing elite units such as Steel Path Eximus enemies or bosses, but it's hard to build and keep combo. So that plus the beast exclusive Bond mod can keep you at 12x reliably while mitigating the issues of trying to heavy on Desert Wind (namely, his lengthy single inputs and the waves ragdolling enemies too much for random Tennokai chance to be reliable). Similar for Excal, although his heavy isn't as exceptionally strong as Baruuk or Valkyr's. Meanwhile, if you're only throwing on one for Valkyr it should probably be Opportunity's Reach, since she can build combo on her own and keep it fairly easily, not having a massive ragdoll AOE.

      I got a good build from MHBlacky recently. Use Equilibrium with Diriga as a companion. The Diriga needs its abilities, manifold bond for condition overload and cooldown reset, and synth deconstruct for health orbs.
      You can use archon shards to double the effect of health orbs, and that translates through equilibrium. I also use a companion riven mod so i can get an IPS weapon above 50% CC for tenacious bond and condition overload.
      and if you want to, you can build the claws for toxin and equip archon continuity to also proc corrosive.

      nothing really awkward. it's really fast if you're competent. like 3-4 minutes a round solo or just with a friend (if you're not a highly distracted combat and looting inclined individual like myself). All the enemies love to swarm towards the room with the crucible. Just have someone with a constant form of CC to get enemies trapped in and periodically empty it to get a large helping of shiny elemental baubles. (vauban? Gyre sort of? Khora maybe? Frost freezes+armor strip? Baruuk sleep? or you can make them kill each other with nyx? spear them and pick them off with nezha? etc)
      they you just pick up a bauble with your frame. pick one up with your operator. dash on over, chuck one in. press 5, chuck the other in, then return to find more until you can start the "cooking" section where you gotta manage the reactor heat for a bit like that volatile corpus railjack mission.
      If you're into buying your plat, you can get way more than 100 plat for a lot cheaper if you keep patient and wait for a coupon to pop. 50% or even 75%. a nice bundle of 2100 plat for 25 dollars (in my case, AUS dollars, less or more for you depending where). keeps all your desired for forma and reactors for your top weapons and and slots for picking up more things covered for a long time. provided you're not blowing it on cosmetics.

      @Klaymoor 5 месяцев назад

      I have 2 Valkyr setups that use Tennokai, one for regular melee weapon spam with Warcry (Nikana Prime + Daikyu statstick for lifesteal) and another for Infinite Hysteria (good for Steel Path/Archon missions due to high enemy density, very crappy for anything else). Those setups benefited more from the purple shards than Tennokai, though, as the insanely high crit damage she gets from them practically melt anything in the game (with a few exceptions like Rogue Necramech Eximus in Steel Path missions).

    • @FelisImpurrator
      @FelisImpurrator 5 месяцев назад

      Valkyr has a bit of umbra tax if you want to get the most out of her claws because her massive crit chance and low status chance means you're always going to want at least sacsteel (and ideally double sac). Worth it though. You can basically oneshot everything constantly with a solid tennokai+sacrificial heavy build. Opportunity for maximum fun (i.e., huge AOE) or discipline for consistency.

    • @edschramm6757
      @edschramm6757 5 месяцев назад

  • @bob-px3sh

    Tenet grigori cannot throw a million damage glaive with tennokai unfortunately... I rely on the mele guidance but with tandem bond for a infinite combo counter so long as my companion swipes a enemy. Infinite 12x combo makes glaives, syam, and tenet grigori really powerful.
    Make sure you use rank 0 reflex coil with tandem bond or max rank focus energy (if you want to use mele influence for insane damage)
    The tandem bond mele Chad build only works if your not the squad host so u have a 3/4 chance at having stupid powerful melee without naramon for the whole mission.
    Mele exposure is the only mele arcane that works as a stat stick for wukong and etc.

    • @TheKengineer
      @TheKengineer  5 месяцев назад +4

      Corrosive would require reducing the heat, weakening Archon Vitality for non-lethal hits, and removing another mod. An option, sure, but it comes at the cost of either lower range attacks or no healing on heavy attack - a core component of staying alive with constant healing. As ever with builds the details is down to your personal preference in the end.

      just use energy pads. with how easy energy is to get, trying to fit Preparation isn’t really worth it. also, the starting energy is a % of your energy max, so you can just build for more energy to technically start with more.

    • @TheKengineer
      @TheKengineer  5 месяцев назад +3

      The biggest issue there is reducing build flexibility. Warframes use such a mix of V, D, and Dash mods (plus augments) that if you forma every slot for spare capacity on one build, it's likely to make another build no longer fit. For the sheer cost and impracticality, a single archon shard or energy restore is usually the better choice.
