Spookiest frame, 666 HP, literally empty headed - Dagath!
Release date: 2023-10-18
Passive: Dagath feeds from the souls of the deceased, granting her a 35% chance to activate Abundant Abyss when picking up Health Orbs or Energy Orbs to increase their effective yield by 300%.
Wyrd Scythes - Wyrd Scythes surround Dagath and seek out nearby enemies. Those struck are slowed and suffer Viral Damage with a guaranteed Status Effect. The scythes also spread Doom and extend its duration.
DOOM Not Eternal (15sec edition) - Condemn nearby enemies to their DOOM. A portion of the damage Dagath deals is revisited upon them by a Wyrd Scythe. They also suffer Viral damage.
Grave Spirit - Supercharge Dagath’s weapons with extra Critical Damage. The effects are doubled on Doomed enemies. Escape fatal blows by briefly assuming a spectral form.
Rakhali’s Cavalry - Phantom Kaithes charge forth, inflicting Viral Damage upon all in their path. Their attack strips the defenses of Doomed enemies.
Acquisition: Main and component blueprints are acquired from Dagath’s Hollow within the Clan Dojo. Component blueprints require Vainthorns to craft, obtained from the Abyssal Zone on Ceres. Access requires Abyssal Beacons, purchased from Faction Syndicates.
While it’s a strong combo, in practice it’s just a more clunky version of what a lot of other frames can already accomplish with subsumed Roar and their own abilities. An unmoddable 25sec of downtime that can only be reduced by killing 25 things without your strongest buff active is not very impressive.
Even without Grave Spirit running, the armour strip and viral from her horse blast essentially just demotes enemies off Steel Path, so the 25s cooldown is more like a 3s cooldown… if you’re soloing. Finding enough enemies on a squad is pain though.
