Mach Rush

	1 25 +12.5/s	Mach Rush Burst into a hyper-sprint bowling over enemies and charging the battery. Crashing into solid objects generates a powerful shockwave. Hold to rush continuously. Introduced in Update 25.7 (2019-08-29)	Strength:200 / 400 / 600 / 800 (explosion  Impact damage)
			Duration:N/A
			Range:2 / 3 / 3 / 4 m (knockdown radius) 4 / 6 / 8 / 10 m (shockwave radius)
			Misc: 10% (battery charge on cast) 1% (battery charge per hit) 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 m (dash distance) 100% ( Slash status chance from Kinetic Plating) 50% (energy discount from Redline)

Info

• Gauss sprints into action, propelling himself forward at supersonic speed toward the aiming reticle and instantly charging his battery by 10%. Tap the ability key to dash forward 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 meters. Hold down the ability key (default 1 ) to rush forward continuously at 25 m/s; while rushing, Gauss can also sustain Mach Rush by holding down the forward movement key instead (default W ). Release the hotkeys for Mach Rush to halt Gauss in his tracks.
  • Rush speed scales with Sprint Speed and Movement Speed bonuses, given by the following:
    ${\begin{aligned}{\text{Rush Speed}}=\,25+6\cdot {\text{Base Sprint Speed}}\cdot 1.25\cdot [(1+{\text{Sprint Speed Bonuses}})\cdot (1+{\text{Movement Speed Bonuses}})-1]\end{aligned}}$
    
    • For example, a Gauss using  Rush with  Dispatch Overdrive active will have a Rush Speed of
      25 + 6 * 1.4 * 1.25 * [(1 + 0.3) * (1 + 0.6) - 1] = 36.34 m/s
  • While rushing, Gauss is able to run across large bodies of water, commonly found on the Plains of Eidolon and Orb Vallis.
  • While rushing, Gauss's maneuverability is greatly reduced.
  • While rushing, Gauss can jump from the ground, but not double jump.
  • Rolling, meleeing, aiming or firing/charging a weapon will also cancel the rush.
• When Gauss dashes or rushes past enemies within 2 / 3 / 3 / 4 meters from him, they suffer a knockdown and will charge his battery by 1% per enemy hit. If Gauss crashes into a solid obstacle, he stops on impact and generates a powerful kinetic shockwave that expands to a 4 / 6 / 8 / 10 meter radius explosion, inflicting 200 / 400 / 600 / 800  Impact damage and blasting away all enemies within range.
• Ability Synergy:
  • While active,  Kinetic Plating adds 100%  Slash damage to Mach Rush's shockwave, and makes it inflict a  Slash proc on enemies caught in its explosion radius.
  • Mach Rush through a  Thermal Sunder area to add its  Cold or  Heat damage to Mach Rush's knockdown and shockwave explosion.
  • Mach Rush energy cost is halved during  Redline.
• Mach Rush expends 25 energy to sprint, then drains 12.5 energy per second while active and will remain active until Gauss's energy is depleted, or the ability is deactivated.
  • Gauss cannot replenish energy using  Energy Vampire,  Rally Point, Rift Plane's innate energy regeneration, Squad Energy Restores,  Energy Siphon,  Energy Nexus,  Dreamer's Bond, and/or  Wellspring while Mach Rush is active.
  • Energy Orbs, Orokin Void Death Orb's energy restores,  Rage,  Hunter Adrenaline,  Spellbound Harvest,  Arcane Energize, and  Emergence Dissipate's Energy Motes can still replenish Gauss's energy during Mach Rush.
  • Mach Rush's energy drain is not converted into shields by Augur Mods.
• Mach Rush is a one-handed action. As such, it can be used while performing various maneuvers and actions without interruption.

Augment

Main article: Mach Crash

Mach Crash is an Warframe Augment Mod for  Gauss'  Mach Rush that grants it the ability to create a vortex upon colliding with level geometry, vacuuming nearby enemies in.

Mach Crash

Tips & Tricks

• Tap Mach Rush to dash a set distance for quick repositioning.
  • In crowded hallways full of enemies, chain several Mach Rush dashes aimed at objects or walls to damage and blast away enemies clearing a path for your team. Dash in a zigzag pattern to create multiple shockwaves and reposition yourself behind the crowd.
• Players can release the ability key when holding down the forward key while rushing to keep Mach Rush active. Release both keys to stop.
• Mach Rush allows Gauss to bypass the likes of Grineer Sensor Bars and Corpus Laser Barriers safely.
  • Sometimes the initial dash may or may not trigger alarms in Spy missions.
• Use Cold  Thermal Sunder to slow enemies knocked down or ragdolled by Mach Rush from recovery.
• As the energy cost is halved during  Redline, Mach Rush is a more economical option to charge the battery compared to Thermal Sunder.
  • With a high enough sprint speed stat and battery charge, tapping Mach Rush can potentially cost no energy, allowing you to easily keep Gauss's battery charged to it's maximum during Redline.
• Using Mach Rush while aim-gliding and blocking will wall-latch onto the point of impact.
