Magnetic Damage is one of the six secondary elemental damage types, composed of Cold and Electricity elements. It is very effective at taking down CorpusShields, but is heavily mitigated by the Alloy Armor worn by many higher-level Grineer units.
The status effect of Magnetic damage is Disrupt. It amplifies damage to the shields of the afflicted target by 100% and nullifies natural shield regeneration for 6 seconds. Subsequent procs add 25% increased damage to shields up to 325% in total after 10 stacks, with each proc having their own duration.
Shield Ospreys and Orokin Drones will instantly recharge the shields of their linked allies and nullify magnetic's recharge penalty.
Affected Tenno suffer additional effects: lose 250 Energy over the 4 second duration, or 50 Energy per tick (the initial starting tick also drains energy), and their HUDs will be disrupted.
Magnetic procs will show blue rings matching the shape of the affected target moving from top to bottom.
Tentacle Swarm Tap to spawn watery tentacles from all nearby surfaces to wreak havoc. Charge to increase the number of tentacles and spawn area. Use while in Undertow to have the tentacles emerge from the pool.
Hydroid summons a creature from the deep, causing 4 / 6 / 8 / 10 tentacles to emerge from all surfaces within a marked location 3 / 3 / 5 / 5 meters in radius, cast over unrestricted range. Tentacles prioritize spawning beneath enemies inside the radius, with each tentacle capturing their initial targets or throwing them upward, dealing a maximum of 75 / 150 / 225 / 300Magnetic damage upon emerging, on first contact with enemies, and when submerging as the ability expires after 10 / 13 / 18 / 20 seconds. Captured enemies are incapacitated in a ragdoll state and stay attached to the flailing tentacles; bypassing Shields50 / 100 / 150 / 200True Damage will be dealt per second.
Tentacle Magnetic damage and True damage per second are affected by Ability Strength, while number of active tentacles is not.
Magnetic damage calculation when accounting for Ability Strength is squared (e.g., with a maxed Intensify, the tentacles will deal a maximum of 300 × 1.3^2 = 507Magnetic damage at rank 3).
Tentacles detect and capture new enemy targets when they come into range.
Tentacles can capture multiple enemies at once.
Tentacles with captured enemies will flail their victims around slowly, allowing players to take aim and kill their targets.
Tapping the button (default 4 ) casts the ability immediately. Holding the button for up to 2.5 seconds charges Tentacle Swarm, increasing the number of tentacles spawned up to 8 / 12 / 16 / 20 and spawn radius up to 300%, in exchange for up to double energy cost.
Tentacle Swarm's spawn area will be highlighted by Hydroid's energy color during the casting and charging animations.
Spawn area indicator visibly grows in size as Tentacle Swarm is charged.
While charging, an audible whale-like call from the Kraken plays.
Can be cast while in Undertow liquid form to center Tentacle Swarm on the pool.
Quick cast causes all tentacles to spawn inside Undertow's radius, while charged cast extends the spawn radius outside of Undertow.
Tentacle Magnetic damage and True damage per second deal 200% damage when cast from Undertow, including tentacles that spawn outside Undertow.
Casting Tentacle Swarm is a two-handed action that stops Hydroid's movement and other actions. Charging Tentacle Swarm is a two-handed upper body animation that allows player movement.
Can be recast while active; however, only one instance of Tentacle Swarm can be active at a time. Recasting will replace the previous instance.
Hydroid briefly summons the Kraken at the center of the spawn area as a visual effect. The Kraken emerges from a pool of water, then submerges slowly and disappears. Kraken is affected by Hydroid's chosen Warframe appearance and energy colors.
Tentacles appear as translucent water tendrils emerging from a small puddle of water. Tentacles emit splashes of water periodically, as well as a steam particle effect at their base which is affected by Hydroid's chosen Warframe energy color.
Pilfering Swarm is a HydroidWarframe Augment Mod that grants Tentacle Swarm a chance to yield additional loot from enemies killed while they're ensnared by the tentacles.
Danse Macabre Erupt with a multitude of Eidolon energy beams and sweep a circle of death around Revenant. The beams will modify their Damage Type to target select defenses, while incoming damage is redirected back into the beams. Hold fire to boost Status Effects and Damage, at the cost of increased energy consumption. Thralls killed by this leave overshield pickups.
Misc:9 (number of beams) 100 m (sweep area) 1 rev/sec (rotation speed) 20% (status chance) 40% (boosted status chance) 50 (overshield points per pickup)
Info
Revenant unleashes the might of the Eidolon essence emanating from his left arm, dispersing the Sentient energy into 9 energy beams as he levitates and spins counterclockwise. Energy beams oscillate in angle vertically as Revenant rotates, rapidly sweeping across a 100 meter radius area with rotation speed 1 rev/sec in a pentagonal shape. Each energy beam has a thickness of 0.03 / 0.05 / 0.08 / 0.1 meter radius and continuously inflicts 500 / 750 / 1,000 / 1,250 damage per second with a 20% status chance to all enemies caught in its path.
Number of energy beams and sweep area are not affected by mods.
Energy beams possess innate Punch Through, allowing them to bypass terrain and obstacles in the environment.
Energy beams cannot hit enemies standing above Revenant's left arm due to the oscillation pattern.
While active, all damage received by Revenant is stored into a total damage pool, then gradually transferred to each energy beam as additional damage per second.
Damage stored is tracked by the buff icon beside the shield and health bars.
Revenant is able to move with reduced movement speed while channeling Danse Macabre. Speed the same as Revenant's running speed (without sprint) and affected only by Hobbled Dragon Key.
Holding the fire button (default LMB ) increases the beams' damage per second to 1,000 / 1,500 / 2,000 / 2,500, status chance to 40%, and beam radius to 0.05 / 0.1 / 0.15 / 0.2 meters, while also increasing energy drain to 40 energy per second.
Boosted damage per second is affected by Ability Strength.
Boosted beam radius is affected by Ability Range.
Boosted energy drain is affected by both Ability Efficiency and Ability Duration.
Energy beams autonomously adapt their damage type to the attributes of the enemies they hit: Corrosive against armored enemies, Magnetic against shielded enemies, and Gas against enemies with infested flesh.
Corrosive status effect reduces a target's current armor by 26%, with further procs removing 6% for up to 80%. Each proc has a duration and will end on its own.
Magnetic will deal 100% bonus damage to shields, dealing 25% more with every consecutive proc for up to 325% extra damage. It will also stop natural shield regeneration from shielded enemies.
Gas status effect will proc a gas damage over time effect to the target, which increases in size and damage with consecutive procs while damaging nearby enemies.
Danse Macabre consumes 20 energy per second while active and will remain active until Revenant's energy is depleted, or the ability is deactivated by pressing the ability key again.
Enthralled enemies killed by this ability drop a unique pickup that grants 50Overshields when collected by Revenant or his allies.
Energy pillars explode to inflict damage radially when struck by Danse Macabre lasers.
Damage reflected by Mesmer Skin also accumulates into Danse Macabre's energy beam damage pool.
Reave has 50% reduced energy cost and can be cancelled at any time during Danse Macabre. Casting speed becomes instantaneous and allows limited steering with the movement keys during the dash.
Revenant cannot cast Enthrall or Mesmer Skin, perform parkour Maneuvers or general interactions while channeling this ability.
Revenant is immune to knockdown while channeling this ability.
Casting Danse Macabre is a full body animation that interrupts grounded movement and other actions.
Revenant visually extends his left arm outward and his right arm upward, as he hovers and rotates in place. Energy beams are generated and spread throughout his left arm, while droplets and gaseous energy particles emit from both hands. When the fire button is held, a surge of Sentient energy resembling Enthrall's energy pillars continuously erupt skyward from beneath Revenant's feet.
Energy beams, energy particles, and energy surge color tinting are affected by Revenant's chosen Warframe energy color.
Mag generates a strong magnetic current, pulling every enemy within 15 / 20 / 22 / 25 meters towards her and inflicting 100 / 125 / 150 / 300Magnetic damage. The damage is doubled if the enemy is currently under the effect of Magnetize. Enemies killed by Pull have a 10% / 15% / 20% / 25% increased chance to drop an energy orb.
Damage, the velocity that enemies are pulled and energy orb drop chance are affected by Ability Strength.
Pull's area of effect is cone-shaped in addition to a small circular area around Mag. Enemies behind Mag are not affected unless they're within the circular area.
Affected enemies are ragdolled, rendering them stunned for several seconds.
Still deals damage to enemies immune to crowd control.
Will not stop certain enemy abilities mid-animation, such as Heavy Grineer's Radial Blast and the Volatile Runner's detonation.
Pull's visual effects, including a tint on enemies affected by it, are affected by Mag's chosen energy color.
Casting Pull is a One-Handed Action that can be done while performing many actions without interrupting them, including reloading, charging, shooting, and moving (either sprinting or sliding).
Can be used in mid-air, but not while on a zipline.
Pull grounds fliers, rather than pulling them toward the player.
Polarize Emit an energy pulse that depletes enemy shields and armor, creating shards which become deadly when mixed with Magnetize. Shields of allies touched by the pulse are restored.
Range:5 / 6 / 7 / 8 m (initial and explosion radius)
Misc:5.9 m/s (pulse travel speed)
Info
Mag produces a pulse of magnetic energy with an initial radius of 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 meters that expands outwards over 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 seconds at a constant speed of 5.9 meters per second for a 37.5 meters total radius. If the enemy has shields, the pulse deals 250 / 300 / 350 / 400 damage to it. If the enemy has armor, the armor value gets reduced by 250 / 300 / 350 / 400 and the enemy additionally suffers True Damage equal to the armor removed. Additionally, allies' shields are restored by 250 / 300 / 350 / 400 if they are present in the initial radius or come in contact with the pulse.
Shield/armor damage and shield restoration are affected by Ability Strength.
If an armored enemy is the target of Magnetize, the damage is multiplied by 200%. This does not affect enemies inside Magnetize that are not target of a cast.
All enemies with shields or armor within the initial radius, or that come in contact with the expanding pulse, will produce a violent outburst of magnetic energy inflicting 100% / 150% / 200% / 250% of the drained shields or armor as Magnetic damage to all other enemies within a 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 meter radius of each drained target.
Damage multiplier is affected by Ability Strength, and the explosion damage diminishes with distance.
Enemies who have been drained are not damaged by their own explosion, but they can be damaged by nearby enemies who were also drained.
Ability Synergy: Drained enemies drop one or two shards that store 50 damage each that will be absorbed by Magnetize if the shard contacts it.
Stored damage is unaffected by Power Strength or amount drained.
Shards will not get used up when touching a Magnetize bubble and will instead float around in it and drop to the ground after the bubble ends. They despawn 30 seconds after their creation.
Polarize's visual effects, including shards, are affected by Mag's chosen energy color.
Casting Polarize is a One-Handed Action that can be done while performing many actions without interrupting them, including reloading, charging, shooting, and moving (either sprinting or sliding).
Can be used in mid-air, but not while on a zipline.
Can be used to restore shields to the Cryopod, Cryocore, Excavator in an Excavation mission or an Artifact in a Defense mission.
Can break reinforced glass in Corpus Ships and Laser Plates/Rotation Plates on Orokin Tower laser traps, given an enemy with shields/armor is near them and was affected by Polarize.
Magnetizing the bones of all enemies within a 8 / 10 / 13 / 18 meter radius, Mag suspends her victims in the air and forcefully compresses their bodies inflicting 800 / 1000 / 1250 / 1500Magnetic damage over three segments. Crush deals 800 / 1000 / 1250 / 1500 extra damage over three segments as well to the main target of a Magnetize field.
Damage and extra damage are evenly divided into three ticks (each tick dealing 1/3 of the total damage) that are inflicted in succession over the course of the cast animation.
With a maxed Blind Rage and Intensify, a rank-3 Crush will deal ((Base Damage ÷ 3) + (Extra Damage ÷ 3)) × (1 + Strength Mods)2 =((1500 ÷ 3) + (1500 ÷ 3)) × (1 + 1.29)^2 = 5,244.1 damage for each tick on a Magnetize target.
Additionally, allied Warframes and Companions in the radius of the ability have their shields replenished by 40 on cast, plus an additional 10 / 15 / 20 / 25 per enemy hit per tick.
Shield restore per hit is affected by Ability Strength, while the initial amount is not.
Enemies that walk into the area of effect after the ability has been cast will be caught and damaged by the remaining damage ticks, and will contribute to restore shields.
Suspended enemies are incapacitated and suffer a Knockdown when the final damage tick is applied.
Crush's visual effects are affected by Mag's chosen energy color.
Some of them will appear gold when cast by Mag Prime.
Casting Crush will interrupt any other action and will force Mag in place for the entire animation.
Crush deals less damage against the Grineer but deals extra to shielded Corpus units, due to the traditional effects of Magnetic damage.
Crush does not rely on line of sight, using mods for enemy radar such Enemy Sense makes it relatively easy to Crush large groups of enemies through floors, walls and ceilings.
Bugs
Sliding while casting Crush causes enemies that left the AoE to crumple permanently until a stagger source is made to reset their animation, however damage taken by enemies no longer in range have been cancelled normally.
Dying while casting crush will cause all affected enemies to drop to the ground in a ragdoll state similar to enemies broken while frozen. The enemies in this state will still be able to attack despite missing several limbs and being tied to the ground.
Misc:?% (Blast status chance) 4 (max drivers active)
Info
Equipped to manufacture an assortment of advanced technology, Vauban selectively arms himself with a specialized landmine by tapping the ability key (default 2 ) to cycle between the Tether Coil, Flechette Orb, Vector Pad, and Overdriver. Hold down the hotkey to throw the selected landmine in an arcing trajectory toward the aiming reticle. On impact with an enemy, the landmine inflicts 15Blast damage with a ?% status chance; the landmine lasts for 25 seconds once deployed.
Tether Coil deploys upon contact with an ally, enemy or surface, sticking onto the first entity or object it touches. Once stuck, the coil extends energy wires that inflict 100 / 150 / 200 / 250Slash damage, incapacitate and pull in up to 2 enemies within sight and 15 / 16 / 18 / 20 meters from the coil. Vauban can deploy up to 4 Tether Coils on the battlefield.
Max targets and max coils active are not affected by Mods.
Enemies attached to a Tether Coil wire are subject to ragdoll physics and the wire's constant pull toward the coil.
If affected enemies are killed, Tether Coil will attach to new targets throughout its duration.
Tether Coil does not target enemies already pulled by other Tether Coils.
If placed on Warframes or enemies, It will pull surrounding enemies to them. The wire also serves as an indicator for the location of any enemies that may be hidden.
Flechette Orb deploys upon contact with an enemy or surface, falling onto the ground and hovering in place. Once deployed, the orb turret rapidly fires high velocity nails randomly in all directions, inflicting ? / 200 / 250 / 300Puncture scaling damage with a 50% critical chance, 2.0x critical multiplier and ?%Puncture status chance on enemies hit; enemies coming within 10 meters are prioritized by the turret with high accuracy. Vauban can deploy up to 4 Flechette Orbs on the battlefield.
Damage per nail is affected by Ability Strength, enemy level, Dismantle, and Overdriver damage bonus.
Flechette Orb's nail damage benefits from Ability Strength, enemy level, Dismantle, and Overdriver damage bonus using the following expression:
Enemy Level Multiplier = ceil(Enemy Level ÷ 10). The multiplier only increases after 1 level past the per-10-levels mark (e.g. levels 11, 21, 31, 41, etc).
With a maxed Intensify, an active Overdriver on Vauban himself, and an incapacitated enemy at level 101, Flechette Orb will deal 300 × (1 + 0.3) × (1.0 + 0.25) × (1.0 + 0.325) × (11) = 7,105.313Puncture damage per nail.
In the event of a critical hit, the damage is doubled to yield 7,105.313 × 2 = 14,210.626Puncture damage.
Critcal chance, critical multiplier, status chance, target radius, and max orbs active are not affected by mods.
Enemies hit by nails have a high chance to stagger backward.
Even if nails were fired from the orb without specific targets, enemies will receive damage on a direct hit.
In the last second before expiring, Flechette Orb will release a barrage of nails in all directions.
Enemies killed by Flechette Orb nails have their bodies pinned to walls and objects where the nail lands.
Vector Pad deploys upon contact with an enemy or surface, falling onto the ground and illuminating arrows toward the throw direction. Allies crossing the pad while moving in the arrow direction are propelled forward at a speed of 25 meters per second. Enemies crossing the pad are propelled away toward the arrow direction at the same speed, regardless of the direction they were moving. Vauban can deploy up to 4 Vector Pads on the battlefield.
Vector Pad provides an infinite number of uses with no cooldown per bounce until it expires.
Even if allies are sliding or rolling across the pad, they need to be inputting a movement in the pad's direction to get boosted. Correspondingly, players can get boosted by the pad even if maneuvering in a different direction by inputting the appropriate movement.
As such, players can roll or slide without holding forward during the maneuver if they want to cross the pad in it's direction without getting boosted.
Allies can reduce Vector Pad's momentum by shifting their movement away from the launch direction during and after launch.
Can be used in conjunction with different parkour Maneuvers, such as Bullet Jump, jump, double jump, dodge roll and slide.
Enemies repelled away by Vector Pad can often be launched in an upward arcing trajectory.
Overdriver deploys upon contact with an enemy or surface, attaching to the first object it touches. Once attached, the Overdriver jumps to the nearest player, Companion, or mission objective within a ? / ? / ? / 10 meter radius, granting it a ? / ? / ? / 25% damage bonus to weapons for the mine duration. Vauban can deploy up to 4 Overdrivers on the battlefield, including those already buffing allies.
Damage bonus also applies to damage from Flechette Orb's nails.
Buff duration equals to the remaining time on the Overdriver mine until it expires.
Damage bonus applies multiplicatively to total damage and Dismantle.
Overdriver does not jump to allies already buffed by another Overdriver.
Overdriver mines have a tendency to prioritize buffing players if placed directly on the ground, while jumping to Companions and other allies if placed on a vertical surface.
If Vauban casts a new Overdriver while at max number of active drivers, the oldest mine will disappear, even when still attached to a friendly target.
Ability Synergy:
Tether Coil can bring enemies into range of a Bastille containment field for suspension or vortex suction, while releasing the coil's wires to seek new targets.
Vector Pad can launch enemies into range of Tether Coils, Flechette Orbs, other Vector Pads, and Bastilles.
Overdriver can attach to Tesla Nervos to increase their damage output.
Casting Minelayer is a two-handed animation that allows free movement but interrupts certain actions such as reloading.
Can be cast multiple times while active, however only 4 instances of each mine type can be active at all times.
Vauban releases a device that creates a powerful attractive force, lasting 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 seconds. On touching an enemy, the device will deal 15Blast damage. Every enemy within 6 meters of the device will be violently drawn to it and dealt 50Magnetic damage per second (across 4 damage ticks per second). When the device activates, the initial damage tick is multiplied by 200%.
Damage per second and contact damage are affected by Ability Strength, and the contact damage can be increased by body-part multipliers.
Each tick of damage has a moderate status chance. Enemies affected by the status effect will have their shields reduced by 75% for 4 seconds.
Enemies are ragdolled as they're pulled in, and the damage decreases with distance.
Some enemies will simply be knocked down repeatedly, as they will get up while in vortex only to be knocked down again. In rare cases, enemies can use abilities or fire their weapon in the brief moment they are getting up.
While the initial damage tick is multiplied by 200%, this damage tick does not take benefit from Vauban's passive if used solely.
For example, a rank-3 Vortex with 100% Ability Strength will deal 50 / 4 × 2 = 25Magnetic damage as the initial damage tick.
The damage ticks after the initial one do take benefit from the passive.
Vortex will not take priority over Bastille; Enemies currently held up in Bastille's field will be pulled towards the vortex, but will not leave Bastille or be ragdolled.
Can be used to collect resource and ammo drops to where the Vortex is placed.
Vortex appears from a ball that Vauban throws. You can aim at where he throws it at.
Many enemies sucked into the center of the Vortex are considered to be in a prone position if attacked in melee, resulting in a ground finisher. Multiple enemies can be hit or killed by a single ground finisher to the center of the Vortex.
Due to enemies often being very close to each other, Electric procs are very effective, as they will create large chains of damage. In some cases, {{Ability}} Tesla not founds can be thrown down to allow procs that kill enemies quicker than either power on it's own.
Bugs
Initial activation will tug players for a fraction of a second, and players near vortex's AoE will have a decrease in slide attack boost speed.
Sometimes pulls players in for the full duration.
Jump kicking into Vortex will cause the player to rise exponentially.
If cast near downed allies can interfere with the bleedout timer. Trying to revive them can interrupt the revival and freeze the timer/percentage leaving the downed player stuck at 0% but no timer. Trying to revive the player while Vortex is active will simply keep interrupting the animation.
Ability Strength may affect the value of each damage tick. However, the rate at which ticks occur will adjust accordingly in order to maintain Vortex's damage per second. (Probably because of low fps)
New Status Effect entirely: enhanced Damage! First Magnetic Status Effect deals 100% additional Shield damage, subsequent Magnetic Status add +25% for a total of 325% (capped). Enemies under a Magnetic Status Effect cannot regenerate Shields. Magnetic Status Duration is now 6 seconds.
Fixed an issue where a Magnetic Status Effect would typically lower the victim's Shields further upon expiry (rather than restore them properly) if it had re-triggered the Status Effect.
Magnetic Damage is one of the six secondary elemental damage types, composed of 
Cold and 
Electricity elements. It is very effective at taking down 
Corpus Shields, but is heavily mitigated by the Alloy Armor worn by many higher-level 
Grineer units.
