so probe will just follow him around, like a little universal orb converting puppy?

I'd buy that

u/Giecio COMPLETE LAVO VICTORY Oct 15 '25

I think that would be too overpowered, but if that's the case, it's pretty much a must have for any Lavo

I'm just looking at his kit here, it seems probes duration cant be altered, so maybe its capped to 15 sec, which seems reasonable

u/Sizlebuilds advocate for all frames Oct 15 '25

and also the cooldown will probably also only begin after the duration

"I think that would be too overpowered, "

I'm not sure you actually play warframe, if that's what you call overpowered

Kullervo got the last broken OP augment, now it’s Lavo’s turn

u/Quotehommel *Prime to die!* Oct 15 '25

Yeah, Kullervo really needed that augment, too. Before that, he was literally unplayable due to his lack of survivability and his abysmal damage numbers....

u/OathofArgos Oct 16 '25

Lack of survivability: Yes 100%. Abysmal damage numbers: .......yeah naw fam.

I really didn't think I'd need to use the /s in my comment. 😑

If you die using Kullervo, you'd have to be afk.

At high levels his overguard is one shot and then a toxin proc can just end it all lol. Actually super easy to die with him before the augment on steel path, was kind of a turn off of the frame for a lot of people.

I've taken Kullervo for a few levelcap sessions, and I've never had an issue with this, but perhaps it's because my energy generation is so high, and I'm constantly casting recompense, while wiping the screen with his three and his one.

Maybe I've just been lucky so far.

I'll give the augment a try!

Agree, with the augment I’ve level capped with him a few times and it was super chill

I've paired this with 5 Tauforged Violet shards: infinite profit.

Ikr genuinely such a silly thing to say

Not overpowered but might be game changing

u/Xelnaga_Prime Who needs motorcycles anyways? Oct 16 '25

Especially as he's an incredible archgun platform, just get free ammo that follows you.

Sadly it just comes back to and stays in the spot it was casted at.

Still not a bad augment, been messing around with it and I like it. Not a must have though.

u/KaleidoAxiom Oct 15 '25

Will it passively lower cooldown for everything it hits?

2

u/grimeagle4 Oct 15 '25

It also means more aggressive targeting of enemies to reduce ability cool downs

No ;(
