This is going to be a very end-game-friendly build thatā€™s great for general use. It has a stronger emphasis on mobbing thanks to the Acid Shells mod. So, hereā€™s the setup:

  • Galvanized Hell
  • Galvanized Savvy
  • Primed Ravage
  • Toxic Barrage
  • Frigid Blast
  • Acid Shells
  • Critical Deceleration
  • Hunter Munitions

Exilus: Vigilante Supplies

Arcane: Primary Merciless, Primary Deadhead, or Shotgun Vendetta

Progenitor Element: Fire

With this build, youā€™re going to be doing heavy critical hits with heat and viral damage often. Itā€™s great against armor and health. Also, once you start getting kills with this, nearby enemies will be inflicted with Corrosive, giving you bonus damage with the Galvanized Savvy mod.Ā 

Pair all that with Hunter Munitions and now you have something that chews through health and armor with ease. Bonus points if you use Warframes that have grouping abilities like Nidus with his Larva.Ā 

Itā€™s important that your Progenitor element is fire so that you get to just put in the Viral elemental combination in any order. Just as long as you have cold and toxin together, you can get that combination. 

Also, thereā€™s wiggle room with the Arcane Enhancements since this weapon is quite versatile. The projectile spread on this gun is very tight, making it a prime candidate for headshots. However, if you arenā€™t too good at hitting enemy heads, just opt for the Shotgun Vendetta or Primary Merciless options.Ā 

To get the Fire element on the shotgun, these are the frames that give the element upon starting the Lich process:

  • Chroma
  • Ember
  • Inaros
  • Kullervo
  • Nezha
  • Protea
  • Vauban
  • Wisp
