So i know that the best damage types are Corrosive for Grineer Magnetic for Corpus Gas for infested Last night i made 1 build for each for my Synoid Simulor I usually ran all missions with Corrosive and Blast and never had an issue I went Hieracon with Gas and Ice only to find out i wasnt touching them after some waves with damage varrying from 0-40 with only way of dealing high damage with. What does a blast proc do? Who is weak to fire damage? What happens when radiation is procced multiple times? I cover these and many more in this complete da. So what is the best elemental damage type for Kuva weapons in Warframe nowadays? Does it even matter? Which progenitor warframe is the best choice, fire, rad. Viral is mainly for Grineer. If you have 4x Corrosive Projection Aura, then VIral is good in the Void, Otherwise, Corrosive is better, since Viral won't affect the Heavy Gunners' Armor. If you are fighting against the Grineer faction, the best combo you can do is Radiation + Viral.
After Rising Tide kicked off, there's been a swarm of returning Tennos to Warframe's infrastructure, and there's definitely a whole lot to catch up on. In-between building battleships, let's take it back to some weapon basics for those who are so inclined. Here's a guide on Warframe Gas damage and how to use it to your advantage.
Gas damage, like any other damage type in the game, will have specific challenges associated with it where you'll be required to take down enemies by turning it to your advantage. Some weapons in the game will already be capable of Gas damage, including Telos Boltor and Cyanex to name a few.
Gas damage as a secondary damage type will spew out a Toxin cloud that will damage all enemies within range of your target, and it's highly effective as a damage type against Infested and Infested Flesh. Toxin damage mods will directly affect the Gas damage that you do, so keep that in mind when you're trying to cook up something explosive.
If you aren't the proud owner of any weapons that do Gas damage, you can still mod whatever you have lying around to make up for that. It's as simple as combining a Heat and Toxin mod together and prioritizing them in terms of the other elemental mods you might be using so that your weapon gains the ability to do Gas damage. You can make this one step easier if you're already in possession of weapons that do one of the two elemental damage types i.e. if you already own weapons that do Heat damage, adding a Toxin mod should sort you right out without any further ado.
