Did it reapply blast proc? Maybie fire instead of blast would be better since it also immobilizes enemies and suffers no penalty against ferrite.

What do you mean, reapply the Blast? The cloud itself did reapply the proc even with only the DOT.

I'm not sure about fire, I can try it, but I think Blast is covering the shield as well.

Yup, exactly what I wanted to know.

So six star Torid for the win?

Just got done with the most annoying Lephantis fight ever. Next time, I'm actually bringing decent gear along.

Bring all your friends too!

Did that. It was still tedious as hell.

Mine got just four star and still kicks ass. You can call it a Fourid, if you will. I'd say 5 stars is starting to be overkill and might make your Torid less versatile, honestly.

In other news, I tried Quanta with Mirage.

Holy LSD bad trip Batman! I'll get a video up if possible later, but rest assured, shit is wak, yo.

So forma'd and modded up, it can start hauling ass? Might look into that once I actually have more than five Forma.Going to start on Mirage ASAP when update 14 comes out. Also noticed quite a few Clan weapons need forma to be good, on top of the Forma it takes to make them.

I can't honestly suggest a Torid for a PS 4 player. I mean, the arcing of the weapon makes it really finicky to aim with. I mean, I don't know how easy it is for you to aim all around, but I'm not sure I would use it if I played with a controller.

So I found out how to combat the low player count when I'm on; kidnap folks from alerts! With this totally not dodgy practice I managed to make some headway in those missions no one wants to do. I managed to build the rhino and tossed iron skin on there so I think I'm immortal now? I swapped out my rifle with the karak which needs a little love but it's hitting harder then my brat. Got dual zoren because A: they looked decent and B: I could actually build them. Got a deathcube which I think vaporized Vor on it's second time out.

Now I just need to figure out how to make this bloody thing move at a reasonable speed.

Only way you can make Rhino move fast is either through Zoren Copter, or slide dashing.

Or Arcane Vanguard helmet. Or Rhino Charge with maxed duration.

maxing duration on rhino is an overall good idea, it allows for longer charges, snd more time for both stomp's stasis and roar's dmg boost. and yhea if you can get your hands on an arcane vanguard helm better do it before you can't, same goes for most arcanes frankly, though there's a few useless ones(trinity's arcane meridian and the arcane stamina boosting helms come to mind).

One point of correction: Rhino Stomp stun is still unaffected by duration boosts. Can't make it longer or shorter.

Hence why mine enjoy's fleeting expertise so much.

But that makes Charge absolutely useless! How do you get anywhere, man?

replace charge with rush and arcane vanguard helmet. laugh at so-called faster frames as you blaze past.

EDIT: actually forgot I run rhino prime now, so don't use rush, but marathon instead.

whoa you sure?, i'm pretty sure duration affected stomp's stasis, haven't used rhino in ages though, so that might have changed/gotten bugged.

Well, I am running with severely minimized duration, yet stun lasts plenty long still. But if you want some back-up proof, check out the maximization tab for rhino stomp on the wiki: http://warframe.wikia.com/wiki/Rhino_(Warframe)

To sum up, maximized duration has no positive effect on rhino stomp, and maximized efficiency has no negative effect.

And duration not affecting stomp has been true as long as I've been playing, so if it's a bug, DE is not in any hurry to correct it.

Speed is for scrubs, get an Arcane Thrak Helmet and a Hobbled Key.

No but really, the best way to move around is to abuse coptering and WATO (Wall Assisted Take Off) AKA Slingshotting. That can outright nullify any speed difference.

A.K.A. reason #164 why snipers just ain't that good. Why bother with low rate of fire rifle when I can just jump over there and unleash more faster weapon?

I can't wait to see shotgun buffs.

Warning, Rhino's Iron Skin can be broken by things that Disrupt/Dispel, So watch out for Ancient Disrupters and certain bosses!

you sure disrupters break iron skin?, i know zanuka and stalker can, but i'm pretty sure iron skin is inmune to disruptors (in fact i'm pretty sure disruptors don't debuff you at all), then again i always make them a priority and haven't been disrupted in quite a while as a result, so i could be mistaken.

EDIT: I KNEW IT!

This is correct, stalker and zanuka are the only ones that can take away iron skin, and iron skin protects against disruption the same as it protects against knockdowns.

Well for that matter Rhino Skin can also be broken by damage, if it wasn't clear already.

Update 14 for PS4 is coming this thursday 21!

This one goes to you, peasants console players!
