Talk:Ash (Warframe)/@comment-213.10.202.108-20131023210950

My thoughts on ash? Amazing!

I only use shuriken if i quickly need to kill a light unit or when im too lazy to aim for the corpus ospreys. ( fun to spam at lower levels though)

Smoke screen is where ash really shines. I use the galatine with max charge damage build and if my calculations are correct it should do 3,280 damage up to 5 enemies. and the enemy can't target me as a bonus! For me this ability only costs 25 because i have streamline (30% power efficiency). I can't wait when i get continuity to increase the duration.

Teleport is almost useless for me. I have max rush so i don't want to waist some energy if i can just quickly run up to my targets.

Blade storm is in my eyes not a great ultimate ability, but it isn't bad. On higher levels it does not kill heavy units and the ultimate takes quite some time to finish. It is fun to watch and if you are in a tough situation it is good to use it because you will become invulnerable while the ability lasts. my shields are almost fully recharged after its finished.

my recommended mods for ash: flow for a good amount of energy. streamline to spam smoke screen even more. rush to make him extremely fast. continuity and / or constitution for more power duration to boost smoke screen. stretch to make the range of blade storm and the range stun/stagger of smoke screen larger. 1he should not forget the abilities: shuriken, smoke screen and blade storm. i myself use redirection to give ash a decent shield. you could use something like focus to boost the damage of the shuriken and blade storm.

also if you can, use the locust helmet for more energy. the speed reduction is so low, you won't notice it.

one last thing. these are my opinions and i do not ask everyone to agree with them. use ash however you want.
