Protea Prime should be a day-one cop for anyone who likes to watch their enemies burn. Her original counterpart is already incredibly strong. So, if you want the best Protea Prime build to conquer most of the content inWarframe, check what we have cooking.
Her build will consist of a mod setup, subsumable abilities that work well with this, and then Archon Shards to top off the build.
Best Protea Prime build inWarframe
The following mods will be needed for this build to reach its full potential.
Exilus:Primed Sure Footed, Power Drift, or Cunning Drift
Mods
Arcanes:Molt Augmented (Must) and Molt Efficiency or Arcane Energize
With this mod setup, excluding the Exilus slot, your ability stats should be the following :
The Strength stat might be low, but because Growing Power is activated by your weapons’ status effects constantly, that bumps it up to 164%. Then, with a maxed-out Molt Augmented, your Power Strength will then be at 224% after 250 kills.
Best subsume abilities for Protea Prime
If you want to get more out of this build, these are thebest subsume abilitiesto put on Protea Prime:
For general damage buffs:
The general damage buffs are good if you want to primarily use your weapons to deal damage in your missions.Rhino’s Roar is perhaps the best oneon the list, but the others are just as strong in their own right, namely Grendel’s Nourish.
For utility:
Depending on your energy color, Chroma’s Elemental Ward works very well as a tool to help you survive or give you more utility for gunplay. Using the Toxin Ward is probably the best because of the holster and reload speed buffs.
As for Ensnare and Larva, these are good for grouping and incapacitating enemies in large groups to destroy them with a follow-up cast of Blaze Artillery. The combo will ramp up fast and will deal even more damage thanks to Archon Vitality’s secondary ability.
Which ability should be replaced?
The best ability to be replaced if you’re subsuming isTemporal Anchor.It has its uses of cheating death, but it’s too situational for it to be practical. Besides, with all the other abilities, she’ll be clearing rooms with ease (as long as there’s good energy upkeep).
Best Archon Shards for Protea Prime
To fully get the most out of Protea Prime, these are the bestArchon Shardsto apply to her. In no particular order, use the following:
The Archon Shard setup is quite simple and there is some room for player preference. Mostly with the Crimson Shards, you can choose to add more Ability Strength or Duration, which still benefit the build altogether.
