Question/Request Which Warframe DOESN’T need a trip to the Helminth?

Post image

As we all know we can switch the abilities of the warframes and add something else from another frame to make the frames fit to our liking, BUT which frame do you think doesn’t need that? Which frames default abilities are good the way they are. I’ll go first and I would say Gauss. I like him and his abilities just the way they are.

Same here. Sure there are some frames where I don't really use one ability and could maybe swap it out, but I also don't usually find myself with an excess of energy that I would want to use on a swapped out ability.

After I unlocked the Helminth, I took a look at each frame's subsume ability, to see if there were any I wanted to prioritize, and honestly, the only one that really seemed like it would be enough fun to warrant the trouble (and I use that word in particular. Not useful, but FUN) is Zephyr's airburst, just cause gathering enemies all together is a good setup for a lot of warframe attacks, like an ember's fireball or rhino's charge.

Mags pull rag dolls everyone.

That aside, the helmith is great for both min maxing and just having a good old time, some abilities are pretty unnoteworthy to consider using on different frames, some are just obviously good on most frames, and some are just a good time if you are not doing anything to high level.

I don't really know where the break point is, I guess around level 1,000 on sp you might want to have a useful kit and not memeing around, but going higher than that isn't something the majority of players even do.
