Passive
When
Equinox collects Health Orbs or Energy Orbs, 10% of the restored amount is converted into additional Energy and Health respectively.
Equinox's passive stacks additively with
Equilibrium, for a total conversion of 120%.- Unlike
Equilibrium, does not enable the pickup of orbs while their respective resource pool is full, even for the purpose of conversion.
- This is likely an oversight, not an intentional design decision.
- The effect of
Arcane Pulse does not apply to health from converted energy orbs. - The effects of
Arcane Energize and
Energy Pulse do not apply to energy from converted health orbs.

According to UI Pacify under negative strength will actually buff enemies' attacks. That's pretty crazy.
Question: is subsumed Reave affected by:
1) metamorphosis damage multi?
2) rage damage vulnerability?
3) rest sleep (stealth multi)?
I was thinking about using it on swapper Equinox instaed of its 4 since it both gives shields, nukes (albiet in line and not aoe), ignores armor, and equinox can get nasty with damage buffs on her 1 and 2 plus the strenght on 3
Holy hell does DE need to update equinox's tooltips, impossible to learn how to play her without coming to wiki.
Equinox got a huge buff with the Damage 3.0 changes. Slash damage is no longer resisted by anything and armor is less effective in general.
That is incorrect. Slash DAMAGE is effected by armor, therefore is reduced. Slash PROCS ignore armor. Equinoxes slash wave is a single DAMAGE instance from the stored value, while the active portion puts a single slash proc on the enemies that get in range, but that is based off of the abilities starting damage, not the stored damage you build up. Therefore armor plays a role and will reduce the output. While armor has been changed and caps out at 90%, that still will reduce the hit. That is why terrify builds on her are still used to strip the enemies.
How is it incorrect? I never said it wasn't affected by armor. I said wasn't *RESISTED* by anything. With Damage 3.0, everything take 1-1.5x damage from Slash. Prior to Damage 3.0, it used to be resisted by Robotic, Alloy Armor, Ferrite Armor, and Indifferent Facade (Murmur).
Also, as I said, armor effectiveness is reduced, which increases Equinox's damage even without casting terrify. When you've built up a few million damage (which doesn't take long), you can nuke the screen without even stripping armor.
Still waiting for hydroid and Equinox to swap spawn drops to make her RNG pools a bit more managable...
Also still waiting for them to give me a bandaid so I can use both forms without having to go through 2 mins of casting animations
the thighs are INSANE
Put her in circuit somehow
You can skip Tyl Regor's 1st phase with Vauban's Flechette Skill during the cutscene. He gets damaged in the opening sequence. Good luck.
Ultra Ability heavy frame. It is OK until something drains your energy. Equinox can do lots of different things, but none of them especially well, except for perhaps the sleep ability which can lock down a lot of enemies with the augment mod.
Op nuke with terrify armour strip
Got all parts in under an hour being an rngpilled luckmaxxer never stop gambling
Based
He's part of the fabled 1%
Does her 4th day nuke even deal damage to overguarded enemies?
Yeah, though as with most health scaling abilities you need to do some extra work to do so, as overguard tend to be noticeably higher then their actual health(on top of eximi having more health in general)
She's so easy to farm, just equip ember/nuke warframe and spam ember's 4th ability to skip the boss fight. i think i could do it in under 4 minutes each time so it was painless and zen
Absolute fucking cancer grind, getting about 20 of every fucking piece but 1. 80runs far and still not a single day neuroptics drop. thanks DE, is it really that difficult to throw in a pity system on this absolute dogshit of a grind?
What's really nuts is Equinox is one of the few warframes not in the circuit rotation system. They put frames that quest drops or difficult too like ash and harrow but not equinox.
I have about 40~ runs for night systems. I'm almost an L2 grinding out this print. So painful WooooShaaaa
When I originally farmed her years ago, it took me well over 200 runs to get the night systems, which just refused to drop. I literally got every single other part within the first 30 runs. I farmed that mission off and on for 4 months before I finally got it.
I think that after a certain point it should just bring up a screen when you complete the mission that asks you which part you want from the drop table. Nobody should have to endure what I did.
Im gonna lose it, 47 runs so far and not a single night aspect bp
If you want to farm this - don't
I have all night parts but no night bp + all of day aspect, 50 runs as of now. Was hoping I was missing something (Ie farm her respective parts based on what time it is irl) I guess time to run the 51st - 1000th
I didn't mind the runs so much, it was utterly boring, because it is time-gated, but otherwise trivial, and seems I was lucky, only needed 14 runs to get all dropped parts. (I did hate when there were underwater parts in a run)
What I can't believe, in the year of our Lord 2024, that after getting 8 parts through RNG, you have to wait between 3 and 6 days for both aspects to craft (depending if you start both at the same or not) AND THEN wait another 3 days for the frame itself.
Utter insanity.
D/N aspects build could be changed to 24 hs and will be perfect, instead of 3 days.
Day Equinox: Purely offensive such as damage buff and Slash nuke. For nuke build, precision intensify is a MUST. The way the nuke works is by storing the damage you deal to enemy killed, then released as slash. I am sure it has a limit but I dont use this form much. Also fun fact: for lith fissures, you'll kill every enemy just by walking since they instantly die to her 4. This form lacks survivability, you'll need shield gate as usual
Night Equinox: Max range and duration, and efficiency with energy nexus. I can put every enemy to sleep from 110m away, and not run out of energy thanks to energy nexus. Absolute solo monster, but mediocre in group plays due to other people killing everything on sight. So far I soloed interceptions without moving 99% of time, as well as tier 3 isolation vault very very effortlessly.
Besides sleep, her 3 reduces damage taken and her 4 gives shield if you kill enemy (as well as HP). Combine this with her sleep augment which causes her sleep to spread to nearby enemies when they are killed. Yeah without doubt Night is the way for high levels.
Overall, this frame is severely handicapped by the fact that her 3 does not remain active after switching forms, and also her 4 needing augment to remain active no matter what. This handicap encourages people to stick only to 1 form only because activating the abilities has long ass animation. Lame
Even with buffs, people would stick to Wisp, Revenant, Wukong, Volt... so there's no reason to not give Equinox love.
You dont need strength for day 4 nuke just armour strip and range that scales infinitely
"Precision Intensify" - LMAO DUDE, ARE YOU HIGH?!
Maim's damage is not affected by Strength. At all.
Precision Intensify is the most useless mod for many frames, including Equinox.
Not entirely true. Maim's basic aura damage is affected by Strength. But yeah, generally you don't care about that portion of it since it's weak, and you wouldn't build Strength for a nuke build. But it could be of some use if you're doing low-level content and just want to run around instakilling everything via the aura.
Probably one of the giant waste of time and resources in the game.
Fuck you bipolar goth tomboy best frame
Ahh yes, my favourite frame, the bipolar frame that constantly changes from tomboy to goth 10/10
Wow... this explains so much now, lol.
Nice grind design, shoutout to the stupid fuck that put this into the game. im surely he did not bought it from the market
Just get the prime if you don't want to bother with farming the base frame
Quick note you do not need the frame to get to MR 30 because I did it without farming it🤞
For god sake 9 part just for a frame
I will farm probably when it's the last thing I need to do into the game😆
Wouldn't it be possible to get it via ... Duviri? Circuit?
Equinox isn't in the frame rotations, unfortunately. I imagine it's because her parts would take up most of the reward tree.
