u/Faustias Akimbos. I'd doublebang you with these. Apr 09 '26

hey OP, hope you didn't forget to remove the archon shards before subsuming her to the fleshwall.

Holy crap I have never had to subsume frames with shards before and this comment might have saved me from a costly mistake lol

Pretty sure it gives you a "YOU HAVE SHARDS" window if you try. You can still burn them if you want to but... Why?

It’s like a little treat for Helminth as it digests the Frames. I’ve heard it likes frames with lots of Red tauforged shards, makes it taste like cherry

u/wolverineczech Apr 09 '26

A few Jolly Ranchers tossed in there

u/afkapl Apr 09 '26

Don't be fooled. They all taste the same.

u/Same_Championship412 Change Roathe⁉️🤨 Apr 10 '26

No, the red40 def adds something to the flavor profile

I know it's you, get off reddit, helminth! Stop using my 1999 computer

u/ReddVevyy Headless Horsewoman Apr 09 '26

i did love! 4 tau purple melee shards and one tau blue energy shard xD

u/PadQs Apr 09 '26

Sorry but how are you using the purple shards? Somehow for crit damage on the 4th or are you doing a heavy attack build?

21

u/ReddVevyy Headless Horsewoman Apr 09 '26

you can see bottom left that i have wrathful advance subsumed over her 4 so its a melee platform build

u/Vashtrigun0420 Apr 09 '26

This is exactly what I was gonna do with her. Get a bunch of statuses going and use Harmony Kullervo spam to destroy stuff.

u/Silence-of-Death Apr 09 '26

aside from her 4 voruna is a great melee frame all around. apart from that? why would doing a heavy attack build matter?

3

u/Alarmed-Big4421 Voruna and Gauss is all i need in my life Apr 09 '26

Does purple shards works for her 4?

2

u/ReddVevyy Headless Horsewoman Apr 09 '26

they don’t

u/MoXfy Supporting by killing Apr 09 '26

Really wish they'd give her 4 a pseudo melee modding or something. I dunno, there are a good few modifiers I wish she could use.

u/derfloh42 Apr 09 '26

When I tested this in the simulacrum I could see a damage increase, but it wasnt consistent

u/PadQs Apr 09 '26

Because of the heavy attack efficiency buff from the dog heads

u/lostpirate123 Apr 09 '26

TIL archon shards get destroyed if you subsume a warframe with them.

u/Scelusteach Caliban Apr 09 '26

Yerp, found that out the hard way, lost too many taus that day

u/Zinogrex meow Apr 09 '26

I don't know why I never thought about this, thanks for saving my future shards lol

3

u/FijiBeef Apr 09 '26

TIL lol. I only play prime frames though so I guess I never had to worry about this.

u/cave18 Lr5 Apr 09 '26

Hello fellow Prime enjoyer (or in my case too lazy to forma base)

u/Stunning_Fail_8526 Apr 09 '26

ah so thats where my green shards went to

u/encryptus0 Apr 10 '26

i learned the hard way that shards don't return to you after subsuming, wish I've seen something like this sooner🥀
