The best Scyotid build in Warframe

Efficiency plays a crucial role in Warframe. Players often invest significant resources, such as Archon Shards and ability substitutions, to add utility to their setups. However, a recent change simplifies crowd control: a single weapon now enables effective enemy grouping without sacrificing mod slots or requiring rare items.

Optimal Scyotid configurations for Warframe

Major Rusalka in Warframe

While the Scyotid deals substantial damage, its standout feature is the secondary fire mode’s crowd-pulling capability. Multishot enhancements amplify this effect, attracting larger groups as the stat increases—central to this configuration. Importantly, no ability substitutions are necessary here.

This setup assumes you’ll cluster foes before engaging them with melee strikes. Incorporating elemental priming amplifies Condition Overload’s effects—just ensure your melee weapon’s elements differ from those applied here.

Mod Effect
Sure Shot +90% Status Chance
Frostbite +60% Cold, +60% Status Chance
Scorch +60% Heat, +60% Status Chance (will combine with the innate Toxin to give us Gas)
Lethal Torrent +60% Fire Rate, +60% Multishot
Barrel Diffusion +120% Multishot (Yes, you can technically get more multishot with Galvanized Diffusion, but you will not be scoring any direct kills with the weapon with this build.)

Once configured, activate the secondary fire to cluster enemies, then prime them with primary-fire Gas and Cold elements. A Condition Overload melee weapon will then dismantle the grouped targets efficiently. Experiment with additional mods to tailor the setup—personalizing loadouts remains a core enjoyment of Warframe.
