Grouping? Priming? Energy dispenser? Nautilus has it all

NOTE: DUE TO HOW OVERFRAME SHOWS COMPANIONS THE MOD POSITIONS MIGHT LOOK DIFFERENT THAN HOW THEY DO IN-GAME. THIS USUALLY DOESN'T MATTER, BUT FOR THINGS LIKE SENTINELS THE ORDER WHERE YOU MOD STUFF IS IMPORTANT. HERE'S HOW I MOD THIS SPECIFIC SETTING.

[Synth Deconstruct] takes the spot were [Mystic Bond] is on in the image.

INTRODUCTION

The main focus of this build is to group up enemies, prime them, and produce as many health orbs as utterly possible for Equilibrium.

BUILD SPECIFICS

SURVIVABILITY

  • RESURRECTION: We use [Primed Regen]. We want our sentinel to be alive as often as possible, so reducing the respawn time and giving 10 seconds of invincibility is a must. Make sure to still try to avoid AoE damage if possible to prevent your companion to die often.

WEAPON


There's only 3 options for sentinel guns: Damage, Tenacious Bond, and priming.

  • For damage your only option is the [Verglas] Prime. You have to mod your sentinel accordingly with mods like Fired Up, and have a rifle to trigger galvanized stacks.
  • For [Tenacious Bond] you can use [Vulcax], [Vulklok], [Laser Rifle], [Prime Laser Rifle], [Prisma Burst Laser], or [Burst Laser Prime]. It doesn't matter which mods you use on the weapon as long as you get enough crit chance mods to get over 50%, with since you won't use them for attacking. Verglas Prime can get over 50% crit chance as well but only with a riven.
  • For priming there's two main options. Do you kill enemies slowly? Then use the Helstrum. Do you nuke lots of enemies fast and need priming or viral to spread quick? Then use the Tazicor.

SUPPORT

  • DAMAGE: We use [Cordon], [Manifold Bond], [Assault Mode], and [Duplex Bond]. [Cordon] is [Nautilus Prime]'s special mod and the main reason to use it. It lets you group up enemies rather well so you can nuke them fast. [Manifold Bond] reduces cooldown when we kill enemies with 3 or more status conditions, so we can use [Cordon] more often. Assault Mode with our weapon of choice lets us spread those status rather fast, and Duplex Bond quadruples our status spreading.

  • HEALTH/SHIELD: We use [Guardian] and Shield Charger. The usual setup, and with Manifold Bond they'll trigger relatively often if our shields ever go down.

  • ENERGY: We use [Synth Deconstruct]. With how many enemies our sentinel will hit to spread status this will end up providing us with plenty of health orbs, which become extra energy with Equilibrium.

  • LOOT: We use [Primed Animal Instinct] and [Vacuum]. They're pretty self explanatory, and basically the mods everyone wants on their companion. Being able to see more loot, more enemies, and collect the drops around you instantly are the most important things when playing a fast game like warframe.
