Best Rhino Prime build inWarframe
To get this Rhino Prime build started, you’re going to focus heavily on ability duration, ability strength, and armor. So, use this setup with maxed-out mods:
Exilus:Power Drift
Arcanes:Molt Augmented, Arcane Energize, or Arcane Guardian
With this build setup,your ability duration will be at 278% and your strength at 353%. Do not mind the Efficiency or Range since this will be all about tanking and huge damage buffs to weapons. Your armor will be at 1,189 which will be important for survival.
You will mostly be usingIron Skin first, which gives you nearly 15,000 Overguard health. That value can be higher depending on how much damage you absorb during the invincibility part. This will prevent you from being knocked down or taking status effects.
The high armor will be useful for giving you moreOverguard pointsduring Iron Skin. It can also help you take a few hits from high-level enemies if you find yourself without the Skin on or without shield gating.
With the skin active, you want to pop your Roar and your Nourish ability, which will be explained below.
Best Subsume ability for Rhino Prime
The best subsume ability for Rhino Prime would beNourish. Since this is a duration and strength build, this will be affected greatly by this setup. You’ll be double-dipping into damage buffs for yourself since you’re using this alongside Roar.
Ideally,you want to replace Rhino Charge or Rhino Stomp for this ability.
Best Archon Shard setup
The best Archon Shard setup to use for Rhino Prime is to use amix of Crimson and Azure Shards. Use the Azure shards for the Armor stat and use the Crimson ones for Ability Strength.
The armor boost helps strengthen the potency of your Iron Skin while the Ability Strength one will boost every other ability.
