Both frames are not that great right now. Valkyr should be getting some love this wednesday with the next patch. Nekros might as well, but I wouldn't count on it.

Someone may come along and say that Nekros is great because of Desecrate. If sitting in a Survival mission and pressing 3 over and over is your thing, go for it.

Shadows of the Dead is a harder to use and gimped version of Nyx's Chaos. It's only good for distracting enemies, and that's his ultimate. Shadows will not attack enemies unless attacked first, and will otherwise wonder around oblivious, shoot at walls, and generally be useless.

Soul Punch is one of the better first slot direct damage abilities, and can be handy for knocking down heavy units, or even knocking them off into pits.

Terrify is pretty handy for higher level missions for when you need to temporarily remove some bullet sponges from a room. At lower levels, you're only going to make it harder to hit enemies you'd otherwise want to be shooting.
