So I've been using a support Hydroid in Arbitration Defense. More or less a CC Puddledroid build that incorporates both the Corroding Barrage and Curative Undertow Augs, and I've gotta say...

...I'm impressed. Due to Curative Undertow's percentage based heal, the Operative regens MASSIVE amounts of health in a reletively short time (FAR more heals than Nidus or Oberon can manage). Ontop of that, Hydroid's KPM is not to be dissmissed. Even with negative power strength, Puddledroid can dish out some serious abuse, which is made even more potent when Corrosive Barrage is employed to strip armor from drowning victims. Even more icing for the cake, Puddledroid is... well... invincible? You don't really have to worry about him dying, even if you completely drop Armor/Health/Shield mods. And of course, you have CC out the ying-yang; from Barrage's knockdown AoE, to Undertow's Nom-Nom feed the Rumblies, to Tenticle Swarm's annoying ragdoll...

..You kinda score a unique package in Puddledroid. Invincibility, Team Heals, respectable (and scaling) TTK, Armor Strip, CC... He's actually pretty rad. Now I'm itching to try out team combos with him; specifically Gara, another Arbitration Defense Titan.

I don't know how Splinter Storm interacts with Undertow, but say Gara cast Splinter Storm on Puddledroid, and proceeded to boost the ever living beejesus out of the team's Splinter Storm by comboing Gara's 4th/1st...

...Would Splinter Storm's AoE damage add more damage output to Undertow? 'Cause that is literally like stacking infinetly scaling damage with another source of infinitly scaling damage. "Glass Puddle" could merc damn near anyting instantanously, while providing one of the best all around defensive cores to a team: Gara has sharable damage resist, CC, the best fortress in the game, the touch of death, and a nuke; while Support Hydroid packs Party heals, more CC, certain gradual death, and armor strip. If a synergy exists between both Warframe's offensive skills as well...

I never thought I'd say this... but Hydroid could be beyond broken with the right GF.
