Loki Build – Everything You Need To Know

Launched in 2014, Loki is one of the earliest Warframes from the time of open beta testing. He was also a starting Warframe along with Excalibur and Mag till update 14.0 when he was replaced by Volt. The name has been derived from the Norse god Loki, a trickster or mischievous.

Not being a very strong Warframe, he has the second-fastest sprint speed and uses his creativity to deceive, distract and sabotage his enemies. He masters the battlefield by playing with the enemy’s mind.

Nowadays, Loki is not so popular, as the newer Warframes have made him obsolete. He can still be used in stealth missions due to his longer invisibility. His unique skills and high survivability can be harnessed in some specific missions. One must agree that Loki is a highly specialized Warframe and should be used selectively.

TL;DR

  • 📈 The perception of Loki being boring or weak is being challenged by the creator’s experience of his surprising strength and capability in gameplay.
  • 🎯 Loki’s decoy ability can be used strategically to draw enemy fire and manipulate their behavior, making it a powerful tool for crowd control.
  • 🤯 The augment “Radiating Disarm” forces enemies to be affected by confusion status, causing them to focus on melee combat and kill each other, rather than focusing on the player.
  • 🛡️ While Loki may not fit the current meta of wanting to annihilate everything, his kit is designed for stealth, evasion, and crowd control, offering a different playstyle in Warframe.
  • 🛡️ Safeguard Switch and Irradiating Disarm combo makes Loki tankier and provides crowd control, allowing enemies to ignore you.
  • 🎮 Loki’s build with silence and radiating disarm makes late game steel path a joke, as enemies barely get a chance to hit you.
  • 🎮 Loki may not be the best for general missions, but he shines in high level content and endurance runs.

Loki – Invisibility Build

Loki – Invisibility Build

The Loki Prime Invisibility mod is the main Loki build. The key to getting through this Loki build is the long duration. In this build, there is no survivability mod. Can you guess why? Well, because you can be invisible.

The most important mod that can be used in this build is the Corrosive Projection and the Cunning Drift. These mods will be providing you armor reduction and increased friction and ability duration.

If you are running out of energy, then you can switch to the Primed Flow mod for gaining control over energy. The Natural Talent mod can be one of the best choices to be used for increasing the casting speed if it is running low.

The Hushed Invisibility mod will be helping you in killing enemies continuously while being in stealth mode. This build already goes pretty well with the energy. As of now, you know that this build is all about duration, so you will have to switch to mods that are providing duration.

Loki – Tank Build

Loki – Tank Build

The Loki Tank build is another important Loki build that is most commonly in use. The Tank build has a high duration and shield level but lacks energy. The most essential mod that you can use is the Armored Agility that will give you control over energy and ability strength.

Also, you will have to pick those mods that are giving you control over energy and efficiency as these two things are the most important in the mission.

The Primed Continuity and the Rush mod will be giving you increased casting speed and ability duration. You do not need the Corrosive Projection, but if you are running low on the armor, then you can keep it handy to switch to it when needed.

Loki – Radial Disarm Build

Loki – Radial Disarm Build

Though the disarm ability was used a long time ago, it is still in the picture. If you want to get a feel of the old school, you can use this Loki Disarm build. In this build, you will be getting survival mode and augmented mods to radiate disarm build.

Also, as this build has high energy and duration but a low shield, it is preferred that you use the Cunning Drift mod to increase the ability duration. More so, the Armored agility mod can also be useful in covering up for lost energy.

Conclusion

With this guide, you will be able to figure out the different augmented mods and their projections and use them in the mission. Each augmented mod has a. polarity within it is used that we have discussed above.

So, the essential thing in this build is the abilities of Loki Warframe, and its invisibility that we can use anytime and anywhere will be a significant drawback for the enemies.
