    EDIT: apologies for the huge oversight but with kinetic plating it resists physical, heat cold and blast damage, other elements will still affect gauss, but with healing options like vazarin or rolling guard can still keep the speedster nigh unkillable, but apologies for this major oversight,
    Hey everyone! Hope you enjoyed this one, I had a blast talking about Gauss, and yeah you read the title right, I'm giving Warframe a compliment for once haha!
    Baruuk won the last poll so he will be next, if this video does well I'll continue this series of where I go in depth and discuss each warframe and how good (or bad) they are.
    The Baruuk Video will be out probably sometime after Christmas, hope you all have a happy and safe holidays

      Fantastic video that I as a gauss main of 3 years now can attest too every line of. He really is a perfect frame that deserves more praise. I think his 1 actual downside is its an active playstyle which makes him a chore too play for some people. That aside I have 1 gripe.
      You missed some stuff on gauss! Thermal sunder is way more broken than you mentioned here, you can nuke up to *level cap enemies* with it.
      Casting heat deals whatever heat procs are already on enemies + its own damage, basically just doubling the heat every time it's used + change. With archon vitality, this is an exponential formula that TRIPLES every time you recast the ability.
      On top of this, casting the blast effect strips off all heat procs and deals all their remaining tick damage much like expedite suffering (the helminth ability) in a single hit.
      Thats literally exponential heat proc damage and the means to turn it into a 1 shot that applies its damage *after the 100% armor strip with redline*
      It's a ridiculous build that truly rounds out his kit. Topping off the massive buffs, CC, speed, survivability, and general utility, with nuking capabilities that few frames can compete with, and unlimited 1 shot damage potential (at least on enemies you can stack heat one).

      9:08 it’s a little bit confusing here, you said “it will gradually build up the battery to 100%, at 100% there will be zero drain”; the battery can be fill to 100% the redline is active and you can fill it up using normal ability not gradually, the thing that gradually build up to 100% is the redline counter (the number displayed in the left of the battery)

      @vergilsparda210 max range even cunning drift, archon vitality, fleeting expertise, primed continuity, constitution, rolling guard, and brief respite. Archon shards replace both natural talent and flow (probably the best choice since you want both in every build for him).
      I also bring the ogris with a primed bane mod so I can have an easier time against eximus but honestly other than that your weapons are free. Don't use the epitaph or cedo though, cold procs mess with the nuke, heat procs will be fine but not cold.

      I used Chroma for the longest time because "holy shit dragon, I love dragons" and the tankiness was nice, but when I tried Gauss? Unreal, absolutely incredible frame, as someone who adores movement shooters it brought a real smile to my face and on top of that he's just completely broken. Frankly if I had to criticize the video for one thing it'd be not spending half of it on how fucking BROKEN thermal sunder is, 100% armor stripping enemies and - supposedly, according to a friend who got me into Gauss - nuking even level cap enemies on top of the freezing and scaling off heat procs, which synergizes really well with meta element spreaders like the Kuva Nukor and the Kuva Ogris. Absolutely insane frame and easily one of the most slept on in the game imo. DE made him perfect, he's equally as powerful as he is a joy to play. Can't praise him enough.

  • @BiomasterM2
    @BiomasterM2 2 года назад +36

    Even back when he was first revealed on Devstream years back, Gauss had instantly become my favorite Frame in the entire game based _purely_ off of his super robotic design compared to other Frames ( *ESPECIALLY* his Alt-Helmet, which on its own was enough to convince me to farm for him the _second_ Gauss was added to consoles) and the _AMAZING_ sound design he has attached to all of his Abilities (I will _never_ get tired of hearing that start-up sound that Redline makes as its going online, and I greatly appreciate that you made sure to include it as soon as you began talking about that Ability.). Just purely from an aesthetic standpoint, Gauss is already a genuine S+ for me.
    But once I finally managed to get him fully built after however many hours spent in Disruption? Gauss has been, and probably _always_ will be, my single favorite Frame in the entire game because of just how damned _GOOD_ he feels to play. A good amount of Frames will have Abilities that are highly synergistic with each other, but to the point where in their own the individual Abilities aren't really that great. But with Gauss, _ALL_ of his Abilities feel great on their own even without taking the added effects from Redline into account, and once you _DO_ decide to activate that full battery reserve, he just goes completely nuts with the amount of raw destruction he can pull off on his own, and not to mention how great his _natural_ movement speed feels with how fast it is pretty much by default.
    Before Gauss, the main Frame I'd have generally used was Umbra, but ever since then the total amount of hours I've spent using a specific Frame has gone so lopsided in Gauss's favor that it's almost hilarious. Originally I ran Gauss with stupid high Duration and not much else, but after his Mach Crash Augment came out, I actually switched over to running a 200% Duration build with 75% Range, and I've never once regretted it. The Thermal Sunder combo might already yank enemies towards you, but giving Mach Rush the added utility of a _PROPER_ enemy/loot vortex effect on collision does so much to boost it beyond the "Battery go up/You go fast" button it was before, and makes using it during active combat super fun to do, especially since one Mach Rush into a nearby wall costs much less than the Thermal combo if you're just trying to pull enemies in, and it gets _even cheaper_ if you had Redline up at the time as well since it cuts Mach Rush's energy cost in half.

    Then I got ready for round two and unlocked some abilities, equipped some efficiency mods that I grinded. Not long into round two and I was having the time of my life and knowing what his abilities did had made me feel like a god.

    Mach Rush is my favorite movement ability in the game, as it’s the most satisfying movement ability in the game. While it isn’t the fastest, it feels the best to cast.
    Titania’s Razorwing is literally just Archwing, with the only visual difference being the magic fairy wings.
    Volt’s Speed is literally just a sped-up variant of the default running animation that most frames have, nothing special.
    Nova’s Wormhole? What animation? You literally just touch a glowing square and teleport instantly.
    But Gauss’s Mach Rush? He holsters his weapon, leans forward into it, and starts pumping both arms like an Olympic sprinter. Pair that with the audio and visual effects, and it’s so satisfying to use.

    Thermal sunder's armour strip is EVEN BETTER than this. The tip screen is somewhat ambiguous, but thermal sunder consumes status procs from ANY source. So if you apply even just 1 heat proc using a weapon, then cast a cold thermal sunder, the heat proc from the weapon is consumed and will 100% armour strip (assuming 100% battery). Notably the ability also deals bonus damage with the bast proc based on the total remaining duration of ALL consumed procs, meaning it can easily do over 50.000 applied after the armour strip.
    It's not a true nuke due to the somewhat limited range and the requirement for a setup, but just a spray with a high fire rate high status chance weapon with blow through lets you one shot an entire group of Grineer on steel path with 1 cold cast.
    Also notable about Redline: it grants more fire rate, attack speed, and reload speed than is possible by regular modding, basically freeing up 1 or 2 mod slots on all weapon types.

    • @madsante

      The small range and fast casting animation of thermal sunder plays fantastic with the theme of always being on the move. Basically you increase his range by moving and proccing blast again. He's my favourite nuker because of how active you need to be with him, and i still haven't found a build that will take out steel path enemies as efficiently using abilities.

  • @thalfie
    @thalfie 2 года назад

    I am a Gauss main ever since I started playing on PC back in Update 25.7, and one of the best ways of maximizing damage is putting Energized Munitions on either Thermal Sunder (as I do, even though it's really good) or Mach Rush. Have a really good riven for Tonkor. Instant win. Even weapons like the Kuva Chakkhurr, a weapon with a pitiful fire rate, becomes EXTREMELY good. Weapons like Soma Prime, Twin Grakatas, and Supra Vandal are so fun to use because of the absolutely funny fire rate buff. It makes weak weapons strong, and strong weapons like the Kuva Tonkor, Laetum, Strun Prime, Kuva Zarr, and much, MUCH more weapons, instant enemy killers up to level 110.
    You basically just clear any mission that's on the Star Chart, up to Steel Path Star Chart. Gauss is literally the most "general use" Warframe in the entire game, paired with Carrier/Carrier Prime, you basically never have any ammo issue

    Like, even if he had Inaros level abilities, he'd still be super fun because he's just Mr Fast and that's fun. NOTHING beats running around at Mach 8 in Warframe and Gauss takes that and cranks it up to 14, because yes he has amazing abilities and yes he's got good CC and Knockdown immunity, but in games like Warframe, movement will always be the most fun and anything that takes that system and cracks it up a few notches will be wonderful. The passive is wordy and kinda complex yeah, but his acquisition is decently late into the game that it's not a problem. While he might not be the best for something like PT or Eidolon, he doesn't need to be when there are already such amazing frames for that.

  • @ap3x581
    @ap3x581 2 года назад +1

    Just a tip from a Gauss main: don’t just build for max duration. It does benefit 2 and 4 massively, but you’re losing his 3 entirely, which gives you heat and cold status priming, freeze and burn CC, armor stripping (at just base strength, which you don’t get on many other strength), and a nuke at base Steel Path if you use the blast when 4 is max charged. Also, the amount of time it takes to charge 4 to 100% is proportional to the duration (I think it’s 1/3 of the full duration if you were just charging) so you may not want to build max duration coz it takes a while to charge to 100%.

    • @Benzinilinguine
      @Benzinilinguine 2 года назад

      Duration increases the amount of time it takes to charge but it also increases the amount of time that it lasts. Mine lasts for about 30 seconds at 100%. TS is still arguably the ability you subsume over. His 1, 2, and 4, are his "kit". Thermal Sunder is just damage and SOME armor strip. If you have the energy economy, that's cool, but if you watch the clip in the video where he shows it off, he loses his entire energy pool in a few casts. As a gauss main, if you lose your energy, you're useless until you get more. Well, at the end of your duration, you're useless until you get more that is.

    • @ap3x581
      @ap3x581 2 года назад +1

      @@Benzinilinguine dude as a Gauss main myself, I spam that in Steel Path and get the energy back in like 5 seconds. Besides, Gauss has energy regen when hits are taken to his 2 (and since he goes invuln to the most common damage types when using 2+4, it’s free energy in a lot of missions). And it is a FULL strip if you have base strength or higher and the 4 is maxed. You’re right that it is the best to subsume off, but it is great utility and works really well for his kit, and it is really dumb to just build max duration and kill it.

    • @CollateralKaos
      @CollateralKaos Год назад

      You are entirely right about it, but there is way more to thermal sunder, with archon vitality it has exponentially scaling damage, each cast of heat tripling existing damage into another heat proc that can again be tripled as much as you need.
      Then cold brings it all crashing down, letting you deal all that heat damage in a *single hit* like expedite suffering, not to mention it strips the armor before that damage is dealt of redline maxed (you don't need 100% strength to full strip btw!) So you get unlimited damage scaling that can be expedite sufferinged and ignores armor.
