And weapons like it.
I have a Kuva Zarr and a hard time getting ahold of new equipment at my MR. So, I’ve got more Forma than sense and figured I could squeeze a little more MR from it with some Forma. The problem is that it’s a pain in the ass to use.
10 rounds total and the worst pump-action style reload in the game IMO. I know it used to be good then got beaten down with the nerf bat but it’s still suppose to be usable, right?
So far I’ve got Semi-Rifle Cannonade on it for a lot of up-front damage and Gal. Chamber & Scope for the extra firepower and like that it can kill pretty decently but I can’t keep the thing supplied with ammo. I’ve tried Ammo Mutation and the set mod that does the same thing… hell I’ve got both on it atm and it’s not helping much.
The ammo/explosive nerf was done fairly poorly, especially for the Zarr whose rifle mode was never an issue. You can try infusing Energized Munitions onto your warframe if you want to play around with ammo efficiency, or go to extremes with Arcane Pistoleer for infinite ammo. (Eclipse/Roar might save you ammo too if you have some way to reliably get rifle ammo drops)
For warframe choices, a loot warframe is probably the best, Nekros if you’re more mobile (Shield of Shadows augment provides stagger immunity + Despoil) , and Khora/Hydroid - Both Strangle Dome and Tentacle Swarm tend to spread enemies apart, so they might not be the best choice. (or Protea/warframe with dispensary subsumed) if you’re playing the majority of the mission in a small area. Grouping abilities can also help you avoid damage loss from fall radial fall off.
Not sure how good Galvanized Scope is on the Zarr in cannon mode, if you aren’t having issues getting headshot kills keep it, otherwise, I would swap it for Critical Delay.
