Talk:Volt (Warframe)/@comment-75.83.122.81-20140210055107

I've had Volt for the longest time, but didn't start playing as him until just recently (after being sat down and talked to by a friend to try a different kind of playstyle that doesn't involve a tanky frame). I've gotta say, the switch has been quite interesting. I'm used to just running in, guns-a-blazing or blades-a-swinging and not caring that there's an entire room of baddies staring down at me just because I can use stomp, iron skin, miasma, or molt (Rhino/Saryn = favorite frames so far).

Volt is very squishy and punishes mistakes like it's going out of style. The squishiest frame I've ever played is Excalibur, and even he's got radial blind to make up for his lack of survival. His 1 is meh, 2 is good for reaching those very far-apart life support capsules on survival missions or catching up to capture-targets. Volt's 3 is what I use the most; it's like a personal snow globe that only protects one side. It provides less protection than snow globe, but all bullets I shoot that pass through the shield are granted more electric damage, so that's always nice especially against corpus and their annoying shields.

Haven't gotten around to using his 4 yet, though. Strangely enough, I'm enjoying him so far. I even fed him a potato, which I only do if I think the frame/sentinel/weapon is worth it.
