Jan 25th 2016. Hard to believe it's been 8 years

That makes me feel old

Coming back after not playing for 6 years this is crazy

We are the old fucks now. Time is a bitch

Really is crazy. What’s even crazier is that it is STILL such a prominent staple across 90% of every fkn build 😂

Lmao yes it is. In game, if it goes over your equipped mods, it makes them appear as "99" for some reason.

@@Gearshifter09 its for 1999

It's hilarious

The pink wings are even worse when not placed correctly (which i didnt) and the visual effect intensity is too high (which is the case for me) 🤣

Hee hee, get dragon'd bozo 🐉

Exalted Blade is a TOP TEIR weapon with the new arcanes and archon shards.

​@unrhu you can't use arcanes on exalted weapons

@@ashtonturner5430 You can use melee arcanes on your melee weapon and the effect transfers to Exalted blade! What are you even talking about??? No wonder y'all think Exalted Blade isn't any good 😂

I’ve tested this and the effect does not transfer from influence or exposure. Which arcanes are working for you?

@@h0pp3d Influence only transfers with certain Abilities on certain Warframe that produce electricity outright, not all, it definitely transfers with exposure that's literally the arcane I use on my Excalibur. You have to use an ability to get the effect to proc, and then spam it to get the maximum effect of 240 percent. I slash dash to keep refreshing the ability. Also just say you know Weeping Wounds and Blood Rush transfer over to Exalted Blade

No kill like overkill

overkill means potentially future-proof for me, i went hard on that mesa build a month or so ago because i know there aint shit that build wont kill that it can shoot for a few months to a couple years potentially, and because its funny to watch regulators orange crit 100% of the time

i havent unlocked steel path yet (im very close though) and yet im still going for the over the top saryn build

Brozime will tell ya what is and isn’t necessary. Whereas if you goto a knighmareframe build, that mf has full 110% investment builds and it’s his way or no way. No other recommendations or options lol

​​@@Frame_Junky "Prime Sure Footed is increased dps" - Knightmareframe 😆

I really don't know what you think Exalted Weapons are supposed to be for. If they were better than normal weapons, you'd be complaining that only frames with Exalted Weapons are viable... I'm perfectly happy limiting my use of Exalted Weapons to weapon restricted Sorties and Circuit when I get a bad selection

I don't think that's worth the time it takes to tell you why that take is ass and I sure don't need another useless notification.@@CrashSable

@@CrashSable What a horrible take. They should be better than normal weapons, they all have a fucking energy cost to use.

@@CrashSable absolutely dumb concept. Exalted weapons are "exalted" they are special... they should be powerful for this reason... literally in the name "exalted". exalted weapons have fallen behind due to power creep though more than anything

@@CrashSablewhat? Exalted weapons should be way stronger than normal weapons and at least a step up from incarnon weapons because 1. They cost energy and 2. They are locked to 1 warframe, no subsume can change that If you really think this I genuinely wonder if we’re playing the same game. Zime even says in this video during the SP run that Exalted Blade should be easily capable at higher levels.

Isnt Excalibur already that?

nah i say giving them acolyte mods and standard arcanes is enough. kitgun/zaw arcanes would be weird

Lemme make my Regulators battery powered

Lmao imagine exalted blade exodia contagion

bro he has a gf

@@DariusDarkest bro is a loser who likes to be a smartass for no reason🤡

@@DariusDarkest bro, showin love to a another dude don’t always gotta be curvy. Keep ur mindset linear focused. U feel

​@@Frame_Junkyissa joke

hopefully there will be a exalted refresh due to dante with dante unbound patch also comes with an exalted weapon and so brings less hope for it to be good unless their is an exalted weapon refresh.

make hysteria great again

literally just stop restricting what they can use and they'd be fine. DE goes out of their way to make them suck.

@@Zevox144 it never wasn't.

​@@Zevox144 Learn how to play Valkyr before calling it not great.

Just lots of practice! I really value clear communication and heavy editing to clean things up feels really ingenuine/weird to me. I will have small notes for certain numbers related to a build occasionally though

@@Brozime Awesome to hear one can get to this with practice. Great stuff.

Build ALL of them. Because you can, for completionism. Only tiers you need is useable or not, and with the right build, everyones in that.

Glazing

@@DarkmegaGaming let me rephrase that: me, as an adult with limited time, would like to know what frames to invest in as I do not have time to grind/build/collect every frame in the game. So the tier list let’s me know which frames are worth my investment of limited time to farm. Eventually this may lead to a complete collection, but not for a significant amount of time.

​@@JohnnyDeLeo1I genuinely think that all of the frames right now are more than solid to play if you like their kit. With the one exception of inaros who is getting reworked soon and loki who is about to get an augment

@@JohnnyDeLeo1 shouldnt you, as an adult with limited time, look for frames that give you the most satisfaction to play with, those you find the most fun, and not worry about if they are "objectively good"

...I use Diwata so infrequently I didn't even realize it didn't have a heavy attack

That's more of a symptom of archmelee being totally ass rather than an exalted weapon problem but I agree for the rest

That sir would make them ridiculously op. Something that de would not want. Even tho there are plenty of ways to be ridiculously op already but is what it is

@@Frame_Junky no, it wouldn't, because they'd still lack Incarnon stats and combo multiplier works normally unlike on pseudos You prefer that they are actually bad? Because that's what not letting them have these things does. It makes them different from non-exalted weapons not to balance them out, but to make them bad So they need to start somewhere.

@@Sljm8D if u think the exalteds are ass then that’s a build issue on your part. They’re fine how they are given the normal stat stick niche being applied for years now. Excals blade will slice through anything like butter. Barruuk’s fists just goes without saying. Valkyr can literally and easily hit dmg cap with her talons. or at the very least, do hundreds of thousands if not millions of damage on a very consistent basis. N then there’s the psuedos with Khora and atlas that also go without saying. De is not going to give exalteds extra attention given that they are all capable of outputting some stupid numbers when invested in enough. Plenty of proof out there for you to watch here on KZfaq. Exalteds don’t need any extra help. It’s a matter of you needing to invest more into them if you feel they’re lacking.

it’s been over a month and we still haven’t figured out the full activation condition of the grimoire what the hell

​@@OrangeCreamsicle kill while grimoire is equipped, for canticle. Middle click spark dealing damage for invocation, but also for some reason an operator's alt fire can proc that too. And middle only hits like 5 enemies max per jolt i think I read somewhere. But hopefully the upcoming multishot fix helps there.

I mean, aznvasion's going for KPM, of course he'll wring melee influence dry. At least he's not unnecessarily thrusting it into every build like primed sure footed on a nezha

@@Zevox144 way I see it. LS towers are there for a reason. Use em. But if you can maintain LS until all the capsules exist on the map and no more can be dropped when focusing in mostly a single large room and its immediate surrounds, you're golden. And most of my half decent frame builds with even some oldie but goody weapons that aren't meta can do that with a hint of luck. As for sure footed, as a budget builder mobilize has sorta been my thing lately, unless I'm squeezing for more strength or range with drifts when capacity is willing.

Merely holding the Grimoire at time of death is necessary but not sufficient to proc canticle effects. You also need to tag enemies with damage from the Grimoire, and then kill them at the same time/very shortly after. If your ability kills them straight up without the Grimoire's involvement, it won't proc, and if you wait too long to kill them after tagging them, it also won't proc. Very easy to confirm this in the simulacrum with Jahu Canticle (watch enemies' armor icons) and a damage-dealing ability.

You’re probably not building it right. His 4 is definitely viable for good high end content

@@ExcaliburGT Viable? Absolutely. Boring as hell? Also absolutely!

@@ElDocBruh I disagree, I’ve always enjoyed his exalted sword

Also most normal person all these other are cringe weebs most of them .....

I like this video but how is it any different? Sure the mods don't all need to be max ranked or you don't even need arcanes but things like Ceramic Dagger Incarnon or Wrathful Advance are not friendly to new players and do take months of grinding. I agree there are some builds that are complex to a point of not being fun but this also suffers from the same issue. Just because Brozime says "you don't need this" or "you can use this as a lower rank" and other creators don't doesn't change anything. It's still inaccessible for them.

@@kantonite11how is wrathful advance hard to grind? You can literally get it as soon as you have access to duviri

@@kantonite11 at some point its not on the creator of the build and more on the player. I've tried certain warframe builds with nonprime mods and no arcanes or external buffs, just relying on the warframe itself in steel path and unfortunately, it becomes extremely difficult. Some frames will only shine when you have higher end items like arcanes etc.

A version of Excalibur that requires completing The Sacrifice to get, with mods that require completing The New War and Whispers in the Walls to obtain What about this was supposed to be new player friendly again?

I would say the weighting should be more in favor of heat since Corrosive doesn't stack infinitely. The infinitely scaling damage from heat is much more important. From what I remember generally a 50/50 weighting is what you want but I would recommend playing with the numbers a bit. Especially since more heat% means stronger heat procs.

@@trinityhydra2687 For shards it's a lot more preferable to have higher weighting on corrosive, so you armor strip faster. Unarmored enemies are paper thin. But i don't know or want to find out myself how exal feels on high level content(lvl 300+), under those levels it's still easier and cheaper to slap viral and heat with chromatic blade, unless you are fighting murmur, and that's debatable too.

Incarnon magistar would be better than ceramic dagger. More raw damage. It’s whatever you wanna use.

​@Shadow_Viper30 yeah but ceramic dagger is good as an actual melee weapon unlike magistar

Yeah, as someone with a mega invested Valkyr, Exalteds feel pretty trash. Like, it still baffles me that to this day we can't use the full range of melee mods on exalted weapons

​@@nfrance999Well originally, other mod choices were removed since they had much higher stats than they do currently. Right now it really doesn't make since they were nerfed ages ago, and you could always tweak them to have less of an effect if they'd be too strong, there's really no reason to not have them on the weapons in some capacity.

@@nfrance999 DE really sucks at balancing their game, it's as if they don't even have a balance team to update and preserve warframes with every new power creep addition. Feels like all they care is to release new warframe packs and get everyone hyped to buy them. Then forget about them too.

​@@Dom4zThere's like 3 C-tier Warframes in the whole game. And one is getting reworked. If you mean weapons then yeah, kuva and tenet should stand on par with incarnons. They require some MR and high Forma investment. But it's not the worst balancing. Go play more games before exaggerating. It USED to be worst, and everything that was nerfed, was done so to the ground. Like melee. They haven't nerfed Melee influence, nor Incarnon stat sticks like Ceramic Dagger, or Magistar for Pseudo Exalteds. Even Magus Agress is untouched. And that is Fine. They just need to buff other stuff, like Exalteds on almost everyone but Mesa (she's fine let's be honest). Excal, Titania and Wukong need this the most. Buff their base stats or let them get Arcanes.

​@@amonggus1I mean yea they are working on stuff overtime just sucks we have to wait so long for these fixes

Archon Vitality is more worth than adaptation. She already has DR with her 3, and getting 2 heat procs instead of 1 is great

without deluxe skins no doubt but with those... yeah I dont really agree, Nezha, Harrow, Revenant and Nyx all look better with them to name a few

Don't forget Deluxe Hydroid or Xaku

Excal has a dope deluxe skin too tho...

@@MannibalLector true, that one is up there, but still, it is deluxe

yOu CaNt gO dRiP oVEr StATs!!! yoU sHoULd bE MiN-mAXiNg eVErYtHinG!!

@@amonggus1 Lol! Some folks be trying to murder Vor in unheard of levels and I can appreciate that. Sometimes: you just gotta look good.

He's got an incarnon tier list video. And just getting warframes ready for the steel path circuit of Duviri.

assuming full uptime probably because its very easy to get to 12x and stay there with this setup

If you figure that out please tell me I'm also wondering why since I've also had tau violet and emerald on my Excalibur

It’s the ephemera from new years

Same as the skia basically the incarnon buffs are the thing that makes the difference so any weapon that has slash heavies and is generally good will be about the same as the Skia though Azothane will be a bit better because the heavy motion is superior

@@Brozime Thank you!

When the Dragon Ephemera crosses over the mod screen it makes the 99

@@ShadowDragon410 Right, and I'm wondering what's up with that

you are health immune with slash dash tho.

@@chettonex It can still help if you catch a few bullets in between Slash Dashes, and had no health orbs drop.

@@chettonex True and you do wanna be spamming it, but you're not health immune in-between casts. You can still catch some strays and take damage.

@@Ranwa90210 sh sh shieldgating

Also, the magistar stat stick technically will do more damage in general with the operator heavy blade weapon's arcane since it for whatever reason works on maces too

​@@ok4yboi929but you have to give up on magus elevate or magus lockdown to use the Magistar

Oh I know but you want to utilize the heavy attacks against tougher units when they show up if you're using the weaker version of the build. Also the Magistar does technically do more damage but then you basically need to keep surging which I would say is far worse than other options like rolling guard

With Bloodrush

@@Orion_44 Oh right, thanks!

Nevermind I found it at 10:11

Just by using different configs, if I remember correctly.

and during helminth infusion you select for what config it shall work for.

What do you mean Ryan Gosling any why Gosling anyway lol

I think it’s just there because of the polarity

This checks out

You'll be using Heavy Attacks with the Skia to deal with hard targets like the Acolytes so you want the crit there so you can do tier 3 reds on demand with wrathful up. Also as mentioned the polarity is there but even if it wasn't I'd still us it for general play

@@Brozime I'd assume you'd swap sacrificial pressure for ppp in that case?

presumably for when you skiajati heavy, and because the polarity is there.

Weird question. Weirder place to ask it
