My favourite part of Nyx's rework (and Trinity's, for that matter) is that the majority of their kit hasn't _massively_ changed. They always had decent abilities, they were just outdated, so a little touch-up to bring them back to modern Warframe standards is all they needed. Nyx got the synergy she needed, Trinity got the Mobility and stat tweaks she needed, and they both got passives that are more impactful while still being "passives". A great turnaround for the girlies.
One tweak, I feel, that would just make Nyx perfect would be to add the option to tell your Mind Control target to stay in one spot like you can with Specters.
I;ve seen a build where u helminth her 4 for loki's decoy and use the Damage decoy mod, where u can decoy a enemy, then mindcrontrol them, they reflect damage and spread 5random status affect due to damage decoy, and if u shoot the mindcontrol target as u convert them u can give them a damage boost into the thousands, so u have a immortal status spreader that reflects damage dealt to it by 350% also xD
The changes they made to Mind Freak actually made me start using the augment and powering Nyx up with ability strength. My favorite frame is even more fun to play now! \o/
Really enjoying Nyx now, I just wish mind control targets didn't disappear. The funnest part about pokemon is catching an awesome pokemon and keeping them forever. I'd love to see some more Mind Control buffs :)
Me too I wish the augment let you add time to her 1 to refresh the duration. Like maybe a few seconds per radiated enemy or per bolt so I don't have to keep recasting it. And no cap, just keeps adding seconds, but that might be considered "OP", however it's not cuz Wukongs twin exists.
The Augment to Mind Control now gives the target movement speed and attack speed. They also raised the damage boost to +1000% instead of +500%. What this means is if you have an ability strength Nyx you can seriously buff that target you mind control and turn them into a DPS monster.
@@Dac85they changed the AI to make it more aggressive. When under the effects of mind control they stop taking cover and other useless actions. I still find melee enemies a poor choice over ranged as they still have that connecting the blows issue even with the movement speed buff if using the augment.
Honestly, just the fact that Psychic Bolts will now spawn new bolts (as I hoped it would) is huge; the crit chance passive made it so she's good at dealing damage now too.; and my personal favorite, I can now jump when I use Assimilate. Being able to jump makes my Nyx way faster and more mobile than before. I can now wall-dash and melee slam which makes it like 5x better mobility. Also... I know high-range is the usual build but I might have an unexpected build for you: one where I dump her range stat (higher strength, efficiency, and duration with Narrow-minded) and I subsume Nourish (or Roar or whatever you fancy) over Chaos. I put Pacifying Bolts on so I get my rad procs from bolts and from the mind-controlled enemy. The thing with these two abilities is that they don't really need range. The bolts will seek out enemies anyway and the mind-controlled enemy (preferably one who has AoE attacks) also deals radiation. For mobility, I add a bit of Parkour Velocity and then use Amalgam Diffusion for faster dodge-rolls. The movement flow is something like: roll - jump - roll - wall dash - roll or melee slam - dodge cancel. It's pretty close to what I do with Ivara's Prowl. There's also a melee-cancel movement tech that flings you forward. I'm honestly ecstatic about this Assimilate change.
2:13 I never started losing any of the overguard I had stolen after the initial ability duration had passed. I think that duration is solely how long the effects last on the enemies and how long those bolts can transfer to other enemies, but I could be wrong. But at one point, I idled on a rooftop in an area of an exterminate mission that had been cleared out for about a minute and some change to swap laundry and came back to still having all that stolen overguard on me.
Chaos 100% damage boost to other enemies applies during mind control, multiplying your mind control damage by 2 if you use chaos first. Ancient healers now remove status procs, so ancient healers remove chaos from enemies now :) Before, healers could only give overguard to allies, not chaosed enemies, but now nyx is useless versus the infested.
In the patch notes they said that Ancient Protectors replaced healers so healers no longer exist, and they gave specter protectors all the overguard and status buffs and didn't to enemy protectors
@@sarcasmgod8430 Wrong, there is Ancient Healers and Ancient Protectors. Ancient healers act like life leech eximus and heal enemies nearly to full in one pulse set, and clears all status effects. Ancient Protectors act like healers used to be, providing overguard.
Havent tested since rework But if you order it right you can overlap her mind control and loki's augmented decoy on the same enemy giving them an additional buff, as well as drawing agro. On loki this also defeats the downside of decoys tending to know where you are when invis.
@@nothisispatrick3894 It will boost the damage redirection from the Shield of Shadows augment, thus letting you get more defensive investment without having to use as many Strength mods.
Been playing her all of today and she is an absolute beast; multiple builds, insane safety/invuln, so many different things she can do. Psychic bolts is crazy and her passive is completely bonkers. Played her back in the day a lot, probably my third most played warframe until she slid out of relevance but she is back with a B.
@@TacticalPotato still works as of a week or so ago. You have to cast MC before decoy, otherwise MC will remove the decoy cast on your target. Or was it the other way around 🤔 I forget, it’s been more than a week since I played it. It’s no nuke, and it’s still a bit slow. But it does make for a more formidable puppet.
Nyx is my favorite frame right now thanks to the rework. I liked her before but now I can comfortably use her without assimilate. I'm still using it as a backup but it's not necessary with her 2 being good enough to survive. I might subsume silence on her 1, but it really could be anything for fun since she's so versatile now. Side note her skin is so cool with the hair and Operator drip is really good too; I'm digging all these skins and wearables, fashion frame ftw.
Yea Assimilate isn't really needed anymore with the rework, the Pacifying Augment is what I'm going to slot in and leave out Assimilate for something else. I will have an Assimilate build for certain mission types on high levels. But I would rather have mobility in big crowds vs invulnerability since she steals armor, overguard, and shields
Interesting how different all the builds are. I went for a primary Weapon build with 2 violet archon shards for primary electricity, not realizing that they are bugged and dont give the bonus value. I Guess I will have to take them out again...
I put 3 reds for ability strength and 2 blue for energy max so I could take off strength and flow on the build and use those for augments or whatever I want. She only needs 130 strength for her 2 and with molt augmented 60 more is a great bonus.
So you are missing out on not having to live in the bubble by building strength on her. The strength really boosts how much she steals and what the cap is and it gets pretty high. I actually have eclipse on her 1 and use bubble for big bosses and stuff. But with all the extra defenses she is already pretty unkillable. I've only died if I got cocky and wasn't casting her 2 and 3. Also she is a crit monster now. Combine that with a toughened up adarza kavat too and its nothing but big red crits. I'm thinking of putting on cyte-o9's invisibility on her too.
I am really glad to see you not go the way of all the youtubers out there for warframe using thumbnail pics and saying BUSTED or BROKEN! constantly! Nyx is my favorite frame. I am sooo glad she got the touch up she needed. I however changed out her Mind Control ability as I still found it lackluster. I use mostly melee so I use the Tenet Exec and subsumed Wrathful Advance on her 1. a serious significance in boosted damage! I gave her Scourge Prime as a primary and the dual Toxocyst for secondary. its really fun using the alt fire of Scourge to get head shots quickly to charge the Toxocyst's Incarnon form. not to mention just psychic bolt everything haha
I liked the reworks, it's just feels like there are several lore/gameplay inconcistencies? Like Caliban procing tau status because he is a sentient, but sentient enemies and weapons or revenant (eidolons could be made the case that they are "damaged") don't; time after time the game states that the void is poisonous to sentients, but they aren't weak to it as a damage type; time after time the game reinforce how the void is eldritch and maddening, but it's status proc is magnetize (????); even in this new quest radiation is considered to be a health hazard rather than confusion but it's status proc is caos. DE could somewhat swap void status with radiation and change radiation to be a max health single target dot, that escales less with weapon mods and more with enemy level...they could maintain the friendly fire, even returning the retired blast loss of accuracy, but not making actively attacking eachother out: making it more like a health deteriorarion and less like a mental thing. Doing that they could change the warframe that do CC rad procs with abilities to do void procs instead (it makes way more sense to me according to the lore...warframes ARE attuned to the void after all), and it would be ok because it is just the status...the most it could do is being one more status for condition overload. The only exception to this case would be Qorvex, because the guy is literally an nuclear reactor. But I think his identity as a CC/low strenght medium incremental damage would be buffed doing that. Just make the pillar pulses stagger enemies if they already don't do it.
I was already practically invincible with Nyx for steel path before the rework. I would leave her 4th ability up throughout the entire match. 😂 people slept on her. And now with her rework? This right here just makes her even more wow.
i use chaos sphere augment as well so i dont have to cast her 3 as much and just keep up the bonus, i run a bit less efficiency but i compensate that with diriga bond setup, prime enemies, they drop more orbs, equilibrium gives me energy, energize ups the energy a bit, i ran a quick test on a survival(steel path ofc) and my energy even spamming skills barely got below half during the mission, but i think dropping energize(mine is rank 3 anyway) in favor of molt efficiency can be a better call
But the real question is, did they remember to fix the status invulnerability bug when using Absorb or did it go unnoticed yet again? I'll have to log on and head to the simulacrum for testing and return with the answer.
Who do u think the next warframe is in dire need of a rework? I think limbo or banshee, ivara too now w the release of cyte 09 who completely outclasses her in every aspect that she had going for her
After these updates we need to pester them to do the last remaining frames. Banshee, Atlas, Oberon, Equinox, Valkyr, Limbo comes to mind. Nothing big, just take what they got and just fix tiny silly things. Banshee has the same problem that Old Trinity had of every ability having a hard animation and that needs to change. Equinox needs to be rewarded for form swapping not incentivized to stay in one form for super extended period of times. Energy Transfer is actually one of those augments I would say is a band aid mod. Valkyr needs Hysteria's Stance updated with something that doesn't make her look like a T-Rex trying to do Karate chops. And maybe have her Paralysis Augment built in as well. Her being a frame that does finishers, especially post the finisher trigger changes, would be neat.
My problem with Nyx is that her kit has anti-synergy with itself, in my opinion. Her 1 gives you an ally, which is nice, but that's about it. Her 2 strips defences and gives it to her, but she's immune in her 4, and with her 3 up, she shouldn't be getting attacked. And if you use Assimilate, then you no longer need any other ability. I still haven't played this new Nyx, but it feels like she'll have the same problems, but with more QoL. I'll try to stay positive, because I really love her - and now even more with the Eleonor skin - but she still feels anti-synergistic. I will still your build, though. I've been loving your builds, so I'll definitely still one more. Especially considering your history with Nyx, so to speak.
I think you're kind of missing the point of of her abilities (except Assimilate, which you definitely understand). The purpose of her bolts has always been defense striping, with very little strength investment, it will fully strip a target's armor and shields. The main weaknesses it had before these changes, was that it didn't touch overguard and it targeted a rather small area. However now bolts will spread on kill, so it's able to impact a much larger amount of enemies. Frankly, I only see the bonus defenses you gain from bolts as a form of defensive redundancy. Just in case you somehow exit your 4, perhaps from being nullified in some way, you have something in reserve (as you can abuse the health gating from Shields and/or Overguard). When it comes to Chaos, before it was best used for protecting things that AREN'T you, such as a defense target or excavation drill. Sure you're effectively immortal, but that isn't the case for everything else. I found it nice as a way to essentially guarantee a solo SP Circuit defense, as it made it so enemies practically ignored the objective. It's especially good at defending an area with the augment. Now with the recent changes, Chaos will now let you easily max her passive's bonus, whilst also making enemies do a lot more damage to each other (which is especially nice when you throw some bolts into the fray). Mind Control is definitely the weakest of the abilities. It's kind of funny having 1 super enemy-made-friend, but it's overall not too potent. However it does still help benefit your passive and it does generally shred anything you hit with your Bolts. Overall, Mind Control's best use is actually for Razorback missions, as you can Mind Control the Bursas that spawn and have them nuke the Razorback. Obviously, all of her abilities now contribute in some way to her 4 when it comes to building damage, which helps with that one major instance of anti-synergy.
This is still nothing compared to nyx almost a decade ago before absorb changes but its a very welcome fix to current nyx meta 😊 happy for the trinity changes too
Her psychic bolts. When you kill a target effected by them they spread 2 more to other enemies. My question is can you keep chaining psychic bolts for the duration or can you only proc the 2 extra bolts once from the initial cast target
I never even played Nyx until this update. She seemed clunky when I started 7 years ago...now I modded her so a single latron round does 13M damage ...and she's reminds everyone that they should have a Goth Girlfriend at least once in thier life. Trust me boys. ITS WORTH IT
I find slipstream is preferable to flow.....since you never start with full E anyway, I get more use from efficiency......I use Fleeting expertise on warframes like Mesa excal and wuking bc they eat more when their 4th ability modes are on so I use Fleeting to stay in as long as I want.
Why not use Umbral Intensify in the Umbral slot if you don't want to waste it?? It increases the overguard you get and just generally makes everything hit harder
Ive gone huge range and duration for her 3rd augment bc aoe instant chaos for 60 seconds. Got her 4th augment that i pop if i get hit really hard and i have 125 strength for full armour strip on her 2
okay as someone who hasnt played WF in a year or three... can somebody explain why nyx has a face? is the general plot still about small children like espers using the suits ... as suits??
Personally ive always been a fan of dispensary on nyx... makes the absorb last forever regardless of arcanes or even equilibrium. Plus teammates can benefit from it and it works in boss fights
My favourite part of Nyx's rework (and Trinity's, for that matter) is that the majority of their kit hasn't _massively_ changed. They always had decent abilities, they were just outdated, so a little touch-up to bring them back to modern Warframe standards is all they needed. Nyx got the synergy she needed, Trinity got the Mobility and stat tweaks she needed, and they both got passives that are more impactful while still being "passives". A great turnaround for the girlies.
Just a hint... you can mind control acolytes ;)
If you wanna be cursed at by your teammates, you can do that 😂
definitely only do that solo.
that's gonna get patched lol
@theunhingedgamer3762 it's been a thing forever dude.
Yeah I tried it in public and then immediately had to travel 3 tiles away to control another mob before I got chewed for it haha.

Nyx is now Dark Sector Lore accurate
0:41 I choked and didn't expect scaldra in the simulacrum, those humvees tightly compacted is too silly
My brain didn't register that that was the Simulacrum, let alone the star chart.
You can actually spawn the tank boss in the simulacrum too if you scan it 3 times, it is a bugged version of the fight so you cannot even kill it
I pray to Pablo they don't remove this
I;ve seen a build where u helminth her 4 for loki's decoy and use the Damage decoy mod, where u can decoy a enemy, then mindcrontrol them, they reflect damage and spread 5random status affect due to damage decoy, and if u shoot the mindcontrol target as u convert them u can give them a damage boost into the thousands, so u have a immortal status spreader that reflects damage dealt to it by 350% also xD
That sounds amazing
I should try that.
Sadly the switch teleport doesn't work anymore when you mind control so can't make them permanent immortal:(
Been using this build for a while now. Even before the rework, it rocks! 👊👊👊

I mean yes, but that was possible before?
@@rowankeltizar5961 yes, you don’t even need any damage buffing warframe or anything to explode rooms with the torid

I replaced her 4 with dark verse to make her an mobile menace and not an sitting immortal duck
idk why ppl like to stay inmortal all the time. It's pretty boring
Try Wrathful Advance with an Assimilate build. That's a fun one.

I still haven't played this new Nyx, but it feels like she'll have the same problems, but with more QoL. I'll try to stay positive, because I really love her - and now even more with the Eleonor skin - but she still feels anti-synergistic.
I will still your build, though. I've been loving your builds, so I'll definitely still one more. Especially considering your history with Nyx, so to speak.
which is why imo a FULL rework of Nyx was needed, not a tweak
Her abilities do not work together
Literally all the tweaks were made to address anti-synergies.
Also nothing you listed is an anti-synergy
Absorb gets the damage from damage enemies do to each other too, so that anti-synergy doesn’t exist anymore
Her abilities aren’t the most synergistic thing in the world but stand-alone each one is great.
I think you're kind of missing the point of of her abilities (except Assimilate, which you definitely understand).
The purpose of her bolts has always been defense striping, with very little strength investment, it will fully strip a target's armor and shields. The main weaknesses it had before these changes, was that it didn't touch overguard and it targeted a rather small area. However now bolts will spread on kill, so it's able to impact a much larger amount of enemies. Frankly, I only see the bonus defenses you gain from bolts as a form of defensive redundancy. Just in case you somehow exit your 4, perhaps from being nullified in some way, you have something in reserve (as you can abuse the health gating from Shields and/or Overguard).
When it comes to Chaos, before it was best used for protecting things that AREN'T you, such as a defense target or excavation drill. Sure you're effectively immortal, but that isn't the case for everything else. I found it nice as a way to essentially guarantee a solo SP Circuit defense, as it made it so enemies practically ignored the objective. It's especially good at defending an area with the augment. Now with the recent changes, Chaos will now let you easily max her passive's bonus, whilst also making enemies do a lot more damage to each other (which is especially nice when you throw some bolts into the fray).
Mind Control is definitely the weakest of the abilities. It's kind of funny having 1 super enemy-made-friend, but it's overall not too potent. However it does still help benefit your passive and it does generally shred anything you hit with your Bolts. Overall, Mind Control's best use is actually for Razorback missions, as you can Mind Control the Bursas that spawn and have them nuke the Razorback.
Obviously, all of her abilities now contribute in some way to her 4 when it comes to building damage, which helps with that one major instance of anti-synergy.
Mind Controlled enemies still need to be tweaked
What's up with corrupted Ancient Healers? What are those things on their backs? What did they change about them?
Can anyone tell me what's that the signa in the video? It looks so good on her
Apparently (from another comment further down) it's from Mag Heirloom collection. No longer available. DE and the art of monetizing FOMO :D
Wait, qorvex's pillars are his subsume? How didn't I realize that?
Dam I'm gonna need to get a second one to feed to helminth
Psychic bolt armour cap currently bugged
I wish topaz shards worked with mind control, would make them useful
Just curious, what did you mod your reconifex with? I’m having trouble effectively modding it
Great video. It makes me happy that Nyx got some tlc. Can’t wait to really test out the new Nyx/Elanor
This is still nothing compared to nyx almost a decade ago before absorb changes but its a very welcome fix to current nyx meta 😊 happy for the trinity changes too
Just pop on Umbral Intensity and that will give you the strength needed to full defense strip.
BASE intensify is enough
How do you make assimilate not distort your screen at all and block aiming?
Use black energy color
Black energy color, or you can put enough range on her so the bubble doesn’t clip into the shoulder camera
Energy colors need to be black or very dark.
Still say she is prime for arcane agility and arcane avenger both trigger in her assimilate
Her psychic bolts. When you kill a target effected by them they spread 2 more to other enemies. My question is can you keep chaining psychic bolts for the duration or can you only proc the 2 extra bolts once from the initial cast target
Will you have a video for the Reconifex weapon that you used for steel path at the last clip? Would like to have that
Viral, multi shot, critical delay, vile acceleration, galv apt
Perfect reload to get heat for viral/heat. No need to add a heat mod
@@hillbillysamurai oh yeah, true. thanks
Thanks for this.
I never even played Nyx until this update. She seemed clunky when I started 7 years ago...now I modded her so a single latron round does 13M damage ...and she's reminds everyone that they should have a Goth Girlfriend at least once in thier life. Trust me boys. ITS WORTH IT
What are your archon shards good sir?
De really need to change all the old maps, would feel refreshed and i believe game would be much more stable
hmm...just wonder where u get that rifle skin from?
Elanor is BAE.... Fight me.
I find slipstream is preferable to flow.....since you never start with full E anyway, I get more use from efficiency......I use Fleeting expertise on warframes like Mesa excal and wuking bc they eat more when their 4th ability modes are on so I use Fleeting to stay in as long as I want.
So I haven't played since war with in part 2, I feel I have missed quite a lot...
Why not use Umbral Intensify in the Umbral slot if you don't want to waste it?? It increases the overguard you get and just generally makes everything hit harder
Honestly I have it on my second build with Roar.
Any ideas towards Archon shards? maybe i missed it in the video but i havent noticed a part bout it.
I did mention shards, U have 2 cast speed, 1 parkour velocity because it gives me bigger rolls in assimilate, and I have 1 red duration
@TacticalPotato thy man!
Yes my girl got a buff 💪🏿❤❤
Ive gone huge range and duration for her 3rd augment bc aoe instant chaos for 60 seconds. Got her 4th augment that i pop if i get hit really hard and i have 125 strength for full armour strip on her 2
What are rhe archon shards
Still not really interested in Nyx, but Eleanor is my favorite Gemini skin by far
Drop umbra vitality for umbra intensify, imo ❤
what does your nyx have on her head?
Mag Heirloom Signa (the cosmetic is no longer available and sadly wont return)
ok. Thanks.
My brother, what is the crown on her head?
was a cosmetic bundle for mag a while ago
mag heirloom
Buffed or not im still going to play her, she's hot
I had to take a hiatus after the Whispers on the Walls update. Is that a skin? Why does she look human?
gemini skin, you can choose to change between human and warframe form. Nyx a baddie though
Newest update added them due to story implications. You can get the skin and emote through the market
She literally hasn't changed much. Always been this unkillable
Now the real question how u make here 4 color so light mine cant even see a thing xd
Color it black
@@TacticalPotato I think i found the problem i had very high visual effect intensity
okay as someone who hasnt played WF in a year or three... can somebody explain why nyx has a face? is the general plot still about small children like espers using the suits ... as suits??
It involves some spoilers to most recent quest but brief summary we found some people in a similar boat to Hayden Tenno
come play 1999! it'll all still make no sense afterwards, but it's fun trust me! lol
Wouldn't smite also be a decent choice?
Yes
I almost forgot about smite infusion.
Masters summons helminth
Also I find nothing wrong with mind control
completely out of context, but how do u change the colour of her breastplate? i cant change the colour in that part of the skin no matter what i do
@@mayathabee365 Try Attachment>Accents
change the colors of her attachments. it affects the harness, the plate, and some other small details.
Thanks, but she's totally not insane.
Her 4 does little to no damage still. Recommend changing it for Roar or Nourish.
Why worthy comandery ?
why not? more dakka.
@Goldy01 what's dakka ?
@@niviennair1936it’s like brrrrr, but emphasizing destructive power
W’s in the chat!
wait,, is that a skin?? why does the warframe is human now?
Omg mommy is back!
Personally ive always been a fan of dispensary on nyx... makes the absorb last forever regardless of arcanes or even equilibrium. Plus teammates can benefit from it and it works in boss fights
Also sum bosses
