great info, i have base frost(not prime) and ngl i dont agree with your take on needing max efficiency, but i like this build and it seems less stressful. on another note.. lemme get that envoy build(i need it)

Where do you get that simulacrum senario?

Rhino used to be miserable in high level content due to the lack of shield gating. But now with it gives him enough time to safely put his skin back on even while under fire, negating the need to use that one augment that lets him recast it while active. I think people are still stuck in that old mentality without considering the new mechanics.

Around 35 voice cracks, my man. Was a fun minigame

Only reason i built for Ironskin was just gor Index runs, and even then i didnt really enjoy parasitic skin. Preffered just having Energy Conversion for a small boost. Otherwise, just a casual max range Reinforcing Stomp enjoyer lel

Is there anyway I could copy this build without needing nourish I like having all her abilitys

actually my favorite jade build by far. My only question is why use enemy radar when your running primed animal instinct on your companion? Again great build and great video

Yep ever since shieldgate and overguard changes, I have also been running with Nourish and even a more "squishy" build than you (like I only have 8k overguard normally) since I basically invest all in strength instead and just kill everything before they can kill me and the iron skin will prevent anything from onetapping you. And I find it funny that Rhino technically will be more tankier the stronger the enemies are because of how iron skin works (millions of iron skin hp in Circuit with the Jackal laser walls that lasts until the next one lol)

nice build, i just dont see the need for increasing range, when this build subsumes 1 out of the 2 abilities that really rely on it, why not remove the overextended and put on archon vitality, get ur strength back annd double dip with the heat procs on the 3rd ability???

that build is so good i went crazy with it

THanks for sharing, didnt think of the passive shield gate by the rhino skin break,

What's the stance animation, bro?

Yeah this build really is possible due to the overguard and shield gating changes. Now that Rhino’s ironskin is overguard and both overguard and shields have decent gating duration, as long as you’re aware you can pretty safely recast to get another chunk of overguard to play with. This build is a really good reason why I think it’s way better to have usability instead of power. Unfortunately I won’t be using the same shard setup, I’ve been throttling a power strength build for him so I can turn Revenant’s reave into a oneshot so I would at least need 2-3 strength shards instead but I think with that I’d be able to free up some extra armor via mods elsewhere.

this: good

I hate the rain dances, even making sure i have the power from the aura and from focus school is annoying to me (but i must do it since it have it aviable )

He wasn't lying. His build needs alil tuning 💀 I thought he was joking

Great build. Subbed

You telling me I need ceramic dagger and outburst and maintain a combo multiplier to do damage? That’s too much

You play Rhino to be optimal. I play Rhino to color my energy white and blast my enemy with Cum Shrapnel. We are not the same.

The people who use iron skin builds sre either sruck in like 2016 or they just dont know that for low level content you dont need that high amount amount, and for high level content it just stacks itself. Besides if youre running rhino its better to have him as a weapons platform with his roar being at 100% power and being able to use nourish

dang I never thought of playing rhino this way. thanks for the vid. that definitely frees up a lot of slots and doesn't pressure me to do some rain dance setup just for the mission to end right when I get the useless big number. I can actually play the game with rhino

this made me want to rebuild and actually use rhino now

glad i wasnt crazy when i saw ppl saying that you NEED to use alt fire, the primary fire is way easier and cheaper, like i dont rly see the merit in building for alt fire besides the silly explosions instantly killing a whole group

This is basically the same conclusion i went to xD Secondary outburst is mildly annoying tho because refreshing it means you need to refresh the strength buff too... i wish there was a way to swap weapons mid air. (Mesa can pull out the mele while regulators are active)

Have u seen anumal instinct? Its basically loot and enemy radar in one but on your companion 😊

Ya know, every time i see a build video on a frame that i simply cant make work and then i see this i just go "am i just that dumb that i didnt think of this" witch yes i am.

could i get your build on the envoy?

I’ll preference this by saying your builds do look good and have high kpm but downplayed weapons platform builds imo. They can also have high kpm setups but no they can’t spread spores for 56m, as I’ve seen you point out, that’s not their strength or goal. I especially think your downplaying the kuva sobek I was absolutely steam rolling through the map earlier granted with comically long pauses to reload but my point is, it works exceptionally well and is fun. Plus my lizard brain see bigg number get big happy and weapon platform saryn will do that

If i dont have ceramic dagger what can i use

Ya see. It's a great build. A build I would choose. The only problem is and why I still choose the 5 mill iron skin build is because when I cast iron skin, now I have to rely on enemies to attack me which isnt hard, but the iron skin rating is incredibly low so I'm only getting a few thousand. With the high investment parasitic armor build I don't need to wait to do anything. I do my steps and then charge into 5 enemies, dont even need a big group just a simple 5 and I'm at like 2 or 3 mil iron skin. Yea in level cap with this build maybe you get a few hundred thousand and can just keep on the move and you wont have to recast it for some time but if we're being truly realistic here; No one is bringing Rhino to endurance runs level cap when theres other frames who are much more worth it to bring. Really really solid build though, just not my cup of tea. Edit: Also, not including the first time you casted Iron Skin on your demo survival mission you casted it 4 times after in 5 mins and if you count the first time thats 5 times, casting Iron Skin every minute does not seem optimal especially when the whole point of Overguard is it's toughness and survivability. It's not a duration based ability like Roar. Recasting Roar is fine becase that's the whole point of an ability based on duration and there's only so much duration you can build but there's NO cap on armor so you can get an insane armor rating with Ironclad Charge and recasting Iron Skin once every minute doesn't seem true to the ability. The Rain Dance build I use, I wouldnt have had to cast it again until at least 10 or 15 mins maybe even longer. Yea, it aint hard to press one button again, I'm not lazy, but why would I want to when my other option is just way more efficient? Aint nobody gonna read this, but that's just my two cents.

Great video and as a frost andd tenet envoy enjoyer this was dope to see! Cheers to the red crits!

I 100% agree but I did almost the same build as you but with Xata's Whisper for Weapon Damage.

might finally get frost now, especially since i have his heirloom skin

what simulacrum is this?

Meanwhile Nyx...

I’d rather maintain 20,000 overguard than do a gimmicky inconsistent setup to get 1 mil

Why would you play this when revenant does everything better 😂

I understand people that run his charge augment for big iron skin... but I would never understand why they would waste a mod slot for his iron skin augment so the ability is recastable. Like, it's literally useless when it's better to have that overguard gate to quickly jump to a safe location if you're going for the big iron skin setup.

As a Rhino main since I started. I applaud this video for just showing how good Rhino is without all the hoops and loops shenanigans most people post about. I personally just run the augments for his 1 and 2 to get good ironskins and go positive on all power stats for a well rounded build. Good stomp radius, high roar bonus still, and more ironskin then you'll realistically ever need still. Rhino is great due to how simple he is but how far you can take him. Again, good video demonstrating that aspect

Did you use an aura forma just to get enemy radar? Pets can do that and loot radar with one mod.

hi just started following the build but i was wondering what is making the energy orbs come to you while youre in the air? i havent put all the mods on yet so i could be missing something but i was just curious as ive never seen it before.

I just picked him up yesterday, before watching this video, and I tried to build something different than "the usual tm" for him and I noticed all these things. 1) Rhino Stomp affects Eximus and Acolytes, which makes it one of the very few abilities that makes you able to worry less about those enemies. Other Warframes would subsume an ability just to deal with those enemies, and Rhino has it in his main kit. 2) Any Warframe would love having Roar in their base kit, and Rhino has the unnerfed version. 3) Any Warframe would like a built-in survivability tool. As you said, the community's conception of Rhino is heavily biased by big funny numbers but what the ability does at BARE minimum (assuming the iron skin gets depleted instantly) is that you have, most likely, something between 5.1 and 6 seconds of invincibility, not even counting how much the overguard actually lasts AND without investing in anything else. That's because there's the 3 seconds invulnerability from Iron Skin, then there's the Overguard-gate duration of 0.5 seconds where you're invincible, and then there's the shieldgate duration that goes from 1.6 (550 base shields) to 2.5 if heavily investing on shields. I actually like the Piercing Roar Augment by the way. First of all, it makes you able to recast Roar so you don't have to wait until it ends to refresh it, which is already a nice QoL. Then it actually does Crowd Control because it knockdowns enemies and gives some breathing room, which also means enemies are open to ground finishers (which might also unlock Arcane Trickery builds if you really want, other than giving easy executions to heavy units). Another great bonus of Piercing Roar is that it applies 5 Puncture status effects on all the affected enemies, which is the maximum stack. Enemies that suffer from 5 Puncture effects are more susceptible to Critical Chance from direct hits, which basically means you have a flat +25 chance of critting against enemies affected by Piercing Roar (puncture in general). That's helpful for any weapon because it's flat, it can make a crit weapon have an edge for higher crit tiers or make a non-crit weapon actually crit and get access to that critical multiplier which is almost always welcome (except for zariman incarnon weapons). Add this to Arcane Avenger and you basically get a 70% flat crit chance as long as you stay active in the mission. Boom, Rhino is a caster.

I don't know that I'd say you have quote unquote, the Best build Ever, but it's certainly a nice change from the usual min/max. I personally don't go for explosive weapons that much, and as such, don't jump around as much as you do so I won't be maining your build, but will consider it an Alt build (with tweaks of my own) Cheers

whats that tenet envoy build tho

Very neat build with the new arcane. For players without arcane energize a few yellow shards might even do the trick to replace it. Fleeting really helps here.
