Although Nova is super fast, she has Wormhole, maxing this out will allow you to go anywhere, with max flow and streamline it only costs 50 energy and it can teleport up to 3 people, so I don't feel the need for a rush mod, specially since I can just slide-attack around if needed. Focus is a must, so it streamline and flow, then you have stretch which is a must for M. Prime. You don't need continuity. Now if you don't wanna forma that V slot out you can use the Rage mod, since you're squishy and most likely to get lots of damage and often need reviving if you let yourself die, which I don't, but you can use that Rage to get your energy up faster, I'm using 2 -- forma'd slots and with the new aura bonus I have 8 extra, the V slot is still there, and i'm using my flow on it so it costs 11 instead of 9, but i have all the extra mod slots so i'm fine. I'm also using the new constitution mod + handspring, constitution gives you 28% power duration, 2% less than continuity, so even if you don't need it, or they change Nova in the future so you DO need it, it is there, + the 40% knockdown recovery along with handspring, you almost instantly get up. From my experience with fast frames, you can get behind cover very quickly, you have invisibility from Shade if you use it, you have all sorts of tactics you can use to stay alive, but when it comes to BS moments like corpus laser doors, MOA tripping lasers, going through a door and running into a random heavy grineer that insta-knocks you down. whatever it is that involves knock down, for a squishy frame like nova, being on the floor means you can't hide and dodge bullets, which at higher levels means death. I highly suggest using knockdown recovery mods to increase your survivability. Get pulled by Grineer Scorpians? Nope, because they shoot the rope and you fall down but get back up almost instantly, they don't have time to pull you.

I use all 4 of her abilities at max level, so should you, Nova is a caster.
