I'm actually loving blast on percision rifles of all things. Something to note about new blast procs, they go off under 3 different conditions. 1. They expire, dealing 30% damage to the main target. 2. They reach maximum stacks, and trigger a 5m explosion dealing 30% damage from each shot that inflicted a proc for ~300% damage. 3. The target dies, triggering a 5m explosion that deals 300% of the average damage between the procs. As you may have noticed, that third trigger scenario has a LOT more damage potential then the first two. Because of that, snipers and percision rifles with enough status chance can convert 1 big headshot into a 5m explosion with 0% falloff. I've been using this with a cannonade set-up on my prisma grinlok to turn it from a priority target rifle, into a room clearing menace.

5:15 looks like a bug where the AoE from the blast proc did self damage, killing you instantly

In regards to your closing statement before explaining the build again, that was exactly what DE wanted with this status rework. They didn't want to topple the old meta, just give you more variety in building. In that regard, they succeeded.

Hello

I'm so happy the status changes didn't directly nerf anything, and instead just enhanced the weaker stuff; all the old meta still works fine, but now we get even more to work with and once again they inadvertently buffed viral in the process by boosting enemy HP making it even more desirable

You could also try Convectrix, blast and slash procs could be pretty insane and it has a lot of status procs

5:14 So blast proc self damage bug is not fully fixed, I guess.

Blast seems like the best element for killing acolytes now, simply because it looks like it essentially bypasses their status resistance by exploding at *max* stacks, rather than 10 stacks specifically. On the flip side, cold still needs 10 stacks to actually freeze, which is balanced.

pst you should try a ready steel wukong slam build with the arca titron. The cloud animation cancels melee, so you can slam to your heart's content.

I’ve been running this build combined with a frost critical avalanche/breach surge build since the update released. Probably my new favorite setup.

5:14 There is a bug that in some cases makes Blast proc do self-damage. You vaporized yourself.

I suggested this! On zephyr and mag is ridiculous

I was on a phantasma prime kick a little while ago and got really obsessed with how many electric procs I could stack up on 1 guy. Then Lavos' augment came out and now I need to return to it.

You've also got Primed Chilling Grasp, so if you don't want to run the Galvanized status mod you can put that in there for more blastiness.

If you will try sobek, try not only saryn, but also zephyr. When acid shells explosion hits tornado the damage is not flat HP %, it also calculates mods, installed in sobek. That makes acid shells able to crit and proc hunter munitions. And I haven't tried but I'm fairly confident that it will also proc blast, since it counts modded stats

So happy we have more options to build weapons!

5:14 there are some weird bugs in the game for sure, im getting these random 1 tap deaths for no reason. high armor high protection dmg reduction and such and still getting 1 tap. Also i got killed many times in operator void mode and also under Vazarin protective dash as well where im supposed to be dmg and status immune. -,- DE messed up something for sure.

Hell yeah, my favorite gun.

I'm loving these goofy builds

u should make a video on the new blast with saryn because toxic lash can actually proc from the blast explosion hits, it’s very deadly with roar and elementalist mods

Hema might be fun to use with a setup like this

I'd like to add the arca plasmor to the blast shotgun suggestion pile

I love the videos keep them up. Do have question would you be willing to do a video like this but for a warframe?

Hello there thank you for the wonderful content.

After testing quite a lot, there is the thing with blast, you have two option when it is good, 1 is the weapon can stack the 10 stacks before the first one spires, 2 the weapon add at least one proc and kills the enemy in less than 1,5s, because the explosion from blast only happens at 10 stacks or enemy dying with at least one proc active, aside it it, the proc are only self damage on the enemy. but i still think it is too gimmick to be really good, need one mod to add 90%, faction is also recomended, armor gets in the way so find a way to remove and if you can have viral, then it become interesting, this all makes it so restrictive IMSO.

Hey quick question man, do you have any videos on your hound? If not would you be able to tell me the mods for him? I’m trying to to get his parts and was wondering what is good on him. Thanks for all the great content!

The Kuva Kohm'll be bonkers with this mod. Although no idea where to slot it in.

Wonder what you could do with something like the Prisma Gorgon

Hmmm...this has given me some inspiration...the Dark Split-Sword has inherent radiation...maybe I go for a Melee Elementalist build and try Electricity and Blast? With my new Nautilus to Cordon and spread cold procs, Nourish on my Frost to add Viral and Melee Influence to spread the electricity procs, plus the rest of my Frost's kit ramping up crits even without the mods...I'd have to test it, but I think I'm on to something here!

I like blast in bows like dread incarnon, paris incarnon and cinta 😅

How about the Tigris to use that mag capacity boon as well to have 4 shells?

Phantasma prime reminds me so much of ignis wraith

the “pope” guy can’t be stopped 💀

I know it's an old weapon, but anyone done a build with the new mods on the Tenet Arca Plasmor? Still my favorite shotgun

For Arcanes I like putting Primary Exhilerate on my Phantasma Prime. Afterall, if has forced Impact procs, already has good damage, and its a great utility for frames that have a little trouble getting their ammo up early. Combine with Nourish and it gets pretty silly.

Here's an idea. Use the new blast procs on exalted blade, with the chromatic blade augument

using negitive accuracy with phantasma makes its beam a cone

With the blast rework now upon us, I recommend you to try the Scourge Prime again with blast and Rifle Elementalist. It's really good.

Quick question - Perhaps someone already knows the answer to this but Do the new Elementalist mods affect Saryn’s Toxic Lash?, because it’s not counted as a power if memory serves us right so would she benefit from the status Damage of the elementalist mods? Thank you for your response in advance and have a lovely day.

Vigilante Armaments is great!

I'm going to try Airburst Corinth...

As someone who commented Convectrix, I'm glad I merged my accounts and have it back because this build would make for an excellent build to start with

Try bubonico alt fire elementalist build Ive been using viral electric blast setup for daily murmur farm work great, strun also works well w elementalist and cannonade

Try nataruck with blast you get some nasty explosions

Felarx is so much fun shotgun with elementalist

Ok mr KZfaq man your going a little too far with blast dial it back a little bit for the safety of your health

you should try the kuva tonkor with the new mods , it could be fun to use

5:16 oh so that’s what ppl mean by sometimes the blast damage can damage yrself, okay hope they fix that bug with the status soon

Bubonico is my shotgun of choice.

is it better than corrosive heat or pure heat tho ?

I like how we're no longer forced to do crit-based builds for higher-level missions, and and more stuff is viable. You ought to try the Convectrix with electro-blast. It's also really fun, and it completely wrecks the Corpus. With its Beam Efficiency mod, it can easily go to over 200% status chance.

Ahh, my baby

Does this work against the murmur they are pretty damn strong i think it does.

5:13 those damn corrupted crewmen and their shiny strun! But yeah they basically have a lot of dmg because of the multishot so they can one shot you after a certain level.

How to get the elementalist mod ?

Other notable potential mod type besides blaze, fire rate.

What could make this build a bit more funny is to run P Chilling instead of P Point Blank to make blast proc way more at the cost of some electricity and overall dmg

2:55 it would be better if they were grouped up as that’s when blast really starts to shine I need to look at that bow that dose the mini nidus thing on its shots that could be fun if it’s got the status for it?

Can do a euphona update

EXTERMINATUS!

Oh damn 4 minutes, I'm early

Amprex my beloved, how much better could you get now?

Jade builds when

Soooo, I started blasting

Why not Strun😢

Akarius Prime... 🤔🤔🤔

No prime chilling grasp?

Blast amprex.... hehehehehe

Ok what the heck one shot you? There was nothing around to kill you?

Yo

Tried it. Wasn't that great. I find the corrosive/heat melts much quicker. Blast is a cool gimmic I guess. It worked the best with tenet glaxion since the blast chains to other enemies for roughly the full damage

1 word 'Cedo'

Ok so i tried to analyze the bit where you died randomly and i came to the same conclusion: you died randomly

It would be better to change your elemental ratio. More blast, less electricity

Forgot the specifics of my build, but I've hit a 2 mil blast proc with the phantasma, pure blast and base dmg, firerate, multishot. ez clap

But the secondary is the whole reason to use the gun. Funny ragdoll > beam 😢

Cedo pls. Thank you

eh... I'm gonna say this on your points on blast.. It isn't *as* good as you think it is for all weapons. You need decent damage to back it up akin to gas. It definitely works a treat on beam weapons but for non beam weapons it's kinda fighting against itself. Like a normal ass rifle. It'll just stagger and push mobs away from eachother while dealing not super high damage. Like kuva karak for example.. You slap that on and you're just kinda fighting against the blast for headshots and spreading the enemies out further because it's staggering them constantly. But there's also unexpected cases like sniper rifles that make excellent use of blast... Lanka, vulkar, And my personal favorite... *komorex* blast komorex is *fuuuuuun* But another unexpected source of blast fun.... Try it on excal's exalted chromatic blade. mix in furies javelin augment and wrathful advance and *maaaaaaaan* you're in for a fun time. Anything that cranks up damage is Blasts best friend akin to gas. Also electricy is also something you should play around with... Electricity unlike gas or blast scales with elemental mods. So the more electricity you add the harder it punches. And unlike heat it ticks very very fast. So it'll dump it's damage out faster then heat.

The MIGHTY SEER can do this too

Shedu plz

The secondary version of the Zarr is boombastic

You lost me at - ''we are not gonna touch the secondary fire''.
