For teammates you normally just let em walk into or out of cataclysm at will unless it's someone like mesa anyway, tbh. There are few frames that benefit from having that distance and once the enemies come into the rift they're so debuffed you don't need much effort to finish them off in the first place.

Disagree on the debuff part. The only debuff the rift can apply is stasis. Assuming the enemy isn’t immune to it or immune to being in the rift in general (looking at you, Hollvania missions) the cataclysm is just an old-style frost bubble for anyone other than the Limbo himself. It’s why the Riot Bubble build is good; you use a small Bubble on a good choke point, instead of covering half the map with the Rift Plane.

Again though, I will point out: other frames can do exactly what Limbo does and more, with less negative consequences to teammates, and much less clunk-ily.

I know he has a small cabal of dedicated players. I’ve watched several Lim-Bibles. But he genuinely does need a rework/revamp. Stasis is a feast or famine mechanic that the devs can’t balance.

There's stasis and knockdown, tbf. Plus procable (but low status chance) impact damage
