The most recent update for Warframe, Shadowgrapher, has been an interesting experience. It has just a little bit more of everything added to the game, and with it, a new paintress-themed frame, Follie, and her signature beam rifle, the Enkaus. Whereas Follie can have very extreme use cases in her kits, the Enkaus is a little aimless, with admittedly a cool idea added to it. Below will be our recommended build for it before we go over if it’s worth going for.
Recommended Build for Enkaus in Warframe
Below will be our recommended build for Enkaus. You will need 2 forma for it, similar to Follie:
Honestly, the Enkaus is a very slow build-up gun with an “execution” twist. The above build is a fantastic mixture of different status effects and damage bonuses that build up over time. That is because I decided to go all in on a nasty little combo involving the new Primary Debilitate and Galvanized Aptitude. Primary Debilitate allows for combo statuses to inflict the normal statuses they are comprised of onto an enemy. Allowing for up to 9 different status effects that, after 2 kills, give an extra 80% damage that stacks with each status effect (you can do the math, it’s a hilarious combination!)
Enkaus Review
Combining the above with the execution passive allows for it to be a very strong weapon in every activity. I do not recommend using it for bosses, however. The Enkaus in Warframe should be a crowd-cleaning weapon only with Follie. It looks unassuming on the surface, but the weapon can clear entire rooms efficiently. While Follie herself seems very situational, the Enkaus can be a general-use beam rifle that I definitely recommend going for!
