@Flux2226. It took me 5 forma invested in Baruuk to get him to where he's damn near perfect. If you use his Lull along with Elude a lot with this build you can get that 360 protection with only needing an Overextended at rank 9 in one of those forma'ed slots and still have 194 str, 205 range (past 200 provides the aoe resistance to Elude), 130 effic, and 101 duration, which works fantastically as the lower rank prevents another 20% of str loss. It used to be ridiculous until they nerfed Covert Lethality, but even then I still used a build with the same forma/polarities with 322str/ 145 range/ 135 effic/ 12dur and just don't even waste my time using Elude due to the heavier populated survivals like Mot and the Kuva Survival just casting Lull gets the job done well enough and allows for Serene storm to be kept of near-indefinitely once you turn it on the first time.

Unfortunately his Desert Wind build also take 5 forma, but ya can't argue with how well 5439 Corrosive damage at 160% CC, 5.0x CD, 155 attack speed (in additon to Berserker buffs) clears a room of damn near everything.

I get that that's asking a LOT of time to invest into that frame, but if you really love to play him it's well worth it and both builds I find to be damn good just coming down to personal prefference. Hope this helps. o7
