Talk:Oberon (Warframe)/@comment-24.110.254.84-20140602080004

Oberon is just a good starting frame. I can see where he has his uses in mid to late game, but there's nothing that truly makes him stand out. The stun is nice and I'm sure the heal comes in handy, but with such heavy CC in the game as long as everyone is smart and targets any energy draining creatures like those in the dark survival defense and survival, a team can make it quite far. I want to like Oberon because of the balance, but beyond having more base armor, his abilities are pretty shit. I also have Vauban and holy shit, Vortex is a Godsend. Why do you even need a heal when after you revive someone they just get full health and shields back anyways? Someone in my team goes down I drop a vortex if there's a crap ton of enemies near him or if there isn't a lot I can drop bastille and revive while my teammates make short work of the floating enemies. Oberons energy pools  suck dick and from mainly playing Vauban now I'd rather have an abilitity that can bail everyone out for a set amount of time then a straight out damage move that may or may not kill everything. Overall, my assessment of Oberon is I think early game he definitely helps out in team situations just as he's described, but later in the game just get a frame for a specific role.
