This is a bit of a unique twist on the weekly warframe format, instead of me bringing you the frame, it’s time to do the opposite! (this is totally not because I have no ideas for a thread myself, nope!) Doesn’t matter if it’s an incredibly niche or a very popular warframe, if you have something to say about your favorite (or most hated) frame - this is your chance! Maybe you have a concept for a frame that doesn’t exist but you wish it did? This is also the perfect chance to bring it up!

    Does anyone have an Ash setup that they like? He’s one of the few frames I cannot seem to find any joy in playing. I’ve tried Savage Silence Bladestorm and found it incredibly boring to wait for things to die.

      I’ve been having a blast playing Ash support with my whack-ass build here:

      • I use the augment Smoke Shadow to turn allies invisible & give a fat crit bonus to everyone
        • the crit bonus does NOT scale with strength, so I can get away with negative strength
        • the 15m range DOES scale with range, which is the main reason I build for range
        • the 8s duration DOES scale with duration
      • Replaced his 1 with Hydroid’s helminth, which works well since we’re modding for duration & range. I used to have silence instead, but that was boring! Tempest Barrage is a nice area CC & applies corrosive stacks to all enemies inside, shredding armour.
        • I also use the augment for this, Viral Tempest, which applies viral ON TOP of the corrosive.
          • This one DOES scale with strength, so my viral is not applied 100% of the time (39% with 40% strength). I use Growing Power to get that up to a more reasonable number, if I wanted to plug a forma into him I would slot Power Drift into exilus to boost it further as well (now that I bring this up, I’m formaing him as we speak lol).
        • The AOE corrosive + viral combined with his 4th’s slash procs help us deal surprisingly good damage despite negative strength
      • Note I also use an under-levelled Narrow Minded so the range penalty isn’t too high
