The guy above might have been a bit of a d*ck with his nearly pointless comment, but he's right. In its state, Limbo's pretty much useless, simply because there's nothing he can do that another frame can't do better.

First of all, the rift mechanic makes things confusing. screw up a cataclysm and you'll end up actually harming your team rather than helping them.

The energy regen can be handy, but again either you or whichever ally you put in the rift is not unable to damage most enemies. And for energy regeneration purposes, an EV Trinity is MUCH better, especially since EV almost instantly replenishes a lot of energy in an area and she comes with a instant global full heal.

For high priority targets, just use your weapon. Why would you spend time banishing, riftwalking and THEN killing them when you can just Paris Prime them in the face right away? Also, if you really need to stun them, again, use a Trinity, since EV also stuns for its duration AND gives energy.

As for drawing aggro and crowd controlling, Limbo just falls short since Cataclysm is pretty much a snow globe for the enemies. Why would you use that when you can have AoE CC that don't make enemies invulnerable to most of your team like Rhino Stomp, Molecular Prime, Vortex etc.?

As for reviving, most of the times I see someone crowd controlling the area around a teammate and someone else reviving them. but if you really need a frame to safely revive people, use Valkyr. She has a literal God-Mode button and can also deal a TON of melee damage in the process (if built correctly).

Limbo might be decent once mastered, but falls short to pretty much every single other frame.
