ABILITIES
Xaku PrimePASSIVE 25% Damage Reduction on AOE attacks and 25% chance to avoid incoming weapon damage.
Xata's Whisper
Wield Void Damage for all attacks from equipped weapons when activated.
Grasp Of Lohk
Void Tendrils steal weapons from nearby enemies to use as your own floating, auto-targeting armament. Damage output increases based on enemy level. The number of weapons grabbed also determines the damage multiplier for The Lost: Deny's Void beam.
The Lost
Cycle through a trio of lost Warframe powers. Accuse manifests a Void fissure to corrupt enemies into allies. Gaze grasps targets in Void tendrils that strip defenses. Deny annihilates with a beam of Void energy, wiping Sentient resistances.
The Vast Untime
Temporarily shed the outer pieces of Xaku in a destructive blast, then stalk the battlefield in a new, swifter skeletal form. Enemies damaged by the body shrapnel are rendered weaker to Void Damage. Xaku's other active abilities' duration is frozen in time and resumes once The Vast Untime expires.
CEPHALON FIELD GUIDE
How to play this build.
Tenno. The Lost abilities strip and disarm on their own; this build just adds a comfortable shield gate and a defensive subsume so you can hold an objective without much thought.
How it works
The Vast Untime and Gaze cover armour strip and crowd control passively.
Fast Deflection plus Vigilante Vigor and Arcane Aegis rebuild the shield gate quickly; the infused subsume (Omamori for flat damage reduction, Nourish for viral and energy) covers the rest.
Grasp of Lohk still steals guns for extra damage.
Helminth
Omamori or Nourish over the third ability.
Where it struggles
Low personal damage.
Gate depends on shield recovery uptime.
Variants
The Stolen Arsenal (#018) is the full non-Helminth Xaku.
Who runs this
Players who want a low-effort Xaku for defense and Interception.
