Rift Haven is a Warframe Augment Mod for  Limbo that makes  Banish restore a portion of an injured ally's health over time.

Tips & Tricks

• Before casting Banish, remind yourself which dimension you are currently in, either the material plane or the Rift plane. Banish only works on eligible targets that exist in the same dimension as you, and pushes them into the opposite dimension.
• Enemies will be damaged and knocked down by Banish, allowing you and teammates to dispatch them with melee ground finisher attacks.
• Ally Warframes will be pushed alongside nearby enemies into the opposite dimension if caught in Banish's area of effect. This enables ally players to immediately use weapon attacks on banished enemies that need to first recover from knockdown.
  • To avoid confusion, give a friendly reminder to fellow players that they can perform a dodge (default Shift ) to end their Banish status and exit the Rift at will.
  • Alternatively, hold down the ability key to phase them back to the material plane.
• Use Limbo's passive (dodging, default Shift ) after casting Banish to enter the opposite dimension, allowing you to attack banished enemies with your weapons.
• Toggle on  Stasis before casting Banish. Enemies banished into the Rift plane while Stasis is active will immediately freeze in suspended animation, as they are receiving Banish's knockdown effect which will resume animation once Stasis ends.
  • Use this method to add a delayed crowd control effect to Rift-bound enemies, buying you time to recast Stasis or kill them before they fully recover from the knockdown.
• Cast  Rift Surge on Rift-bound enemies, then hold down Banish to make surged enemies discharge, banishing themselves and nearby material-bound enemies back into the Rift, without expending energy. Repeat this ability combo to continuously draw enemies into the Rift while you stay safe inside its protection.
  • This can be a good alternative to casting  Cataclysm, as it can be unwelcomed by other players, and also to avoid accidentally banishing unwilling teammates.
• While you are in the Rift plane, cast Banish on enemies inside a  Cataclysm to damage and knockdown your targets for additional crowd control. Those enemies will remain Rift-bound due to Cataclysm, allowing you to immediately strike them down with your weapons.
• Banish a Rescue target to protect them from harm while you head towards extraction.
  • Likewise, Banish the operative in Defense missions in Sorties and Arbitrations to keep them safe from enemy fire.
• Can be used on  Loki's  Decoy,  Saryn's  Molt or  Chroma's  Effigy to make them immune to damage from enemies that are not in the Rift plane.
  • Can also be cast on Shield Osprey specters, which is very useful considering that Shield Ospreys often will simply wander into groups of enemies and die rather quickly, and because the shield link works across planes.

Tips & Tricks

• Activating Stasis before banishing enemies is an effective way of protecting yourself whilst in the Rift.
• Having Stasis active while your  Cataclysm is active, will prevent you from taking any damage from new enemies that enter your Cataclysm's radius.
• Synthesis targets and Feral Kavats can be put in Stasis, making it a lot easier to scan them.

Bugs

• The effects of Stasis held by one Limbo cannot be deactivated by a different Limbo. If two different Limbos activate their Stasis, deactivating the one cast second will not resume action of suspended targets.

Main article: Rift Torrent

Rift Torrent is a Warframe Augment Mod for  Limbo's  Rift Surge that increases Limbo's damage while in the Rift Plane for each enemy affected by Rift Surge.

Tips & Tricks

• Rift Surge is designed to keep enemies sealed inside the Rift by extending their Banish duration, as well as provide a way for Limbo to bring new enemies into the Rift without endangering himself by returning to the material plane.
• The following techniques and occurrences can trigger Rift Surge's banish effect on charged enemies:
  • Recast or dispel  Banish on banished enemies, causing them to momentarily leave the Rift plane.
  • Banish's duration ends on affected enemies.
  • Rift Surge's banish duration ends.
  • Detonating  Cataclysm to expose enemies inside it to the material plane (unless affected by Banish).
  • Enemies exiting Cataclysm by moving through its boundaries (unless affected by Banish).
• It's usually beneficial to have  Stasis active before new enemies come into the Rift with you, so that you don't take unnecessary damage from any newly banished enemy.

Main article: Cataclysmic Continuum

Cataclysmic Continuum is a Warframe Augment Mod for  Limbo that extends  Cataclysm's duration for every enemy killed inside it.

Tips & Tricks

• Because Cataclysm prevents enemy fire outside the sphere from damaging objects inside it, this ability can be used as an alternative to  Snow Globe in protecting Defense, Mobile Defense and Excavation objectives.
  • Power Cores can be picked up and delivered to Excavators safely, all within the Cataclysm.
• Kuva Guardians will remain in the material plane, even inside a Cataclysm, while retaining their  Keshegs.
  • This can help in Kuva Siphon missions to ignore them completely, or disarm them through the Rift since Operator powers work across planes.
• While Cataclysm can be used to protect an objective or team members from harm directly, it is also possible to manage ranged threats by surrounding them with the skill instead of the players, then eliminating them individually as they are revealed by the shrinking sphere.
  • Generally, this is disadvantageous when facing high concentrations of melee enemies, as it effectively provides them cover from the team until outside the sphere.
    • Allies can be  Banished so they can attack enemies within Cataclysm without them needing to go inside it.
  • Using Cataclysm in this way is most effective when enemies are in open spaces or stationary. In particular, Corpus MOAs and the heavy units from several factions exhibit the tendency to stand in the open and fire while relatively stationary, leaving them vulnerable to this technique.
    •  Stasis can also be activated to keep enemies inside the Cataclysm.
  • This method offers an alternative means of managing scattered groups of enemies without denying the use of datamasses in Mobile Defense, since players in the Rift cannot interact with consoles, even if they are carrying a datamass.
• When debating whether to emphasize Duration or Range mods in a Cataclysm-oriented build, consider that the Range will often dictate the "effective duration" of the ability, since it can often become smaller than is useful in the latter stages of its duration.
  • Narrow Minded is a mod to consider carefully before equipping at high level, since it will not only decrease the maximum size of the sphere, but also the minimum size. This is especially important since Narrow Minded will also serve to prolong the skill's later stages in which it has shrunken considerably and may be less useful.
    • This mod can also be highly advantageous when size is of less importance than duration, such as screening Defense, Mobile Defense, or Excavation missions objectives from harm. This is especially helpful against the Corpus, as a Nullifier bubble touching the Cataclysm anywhere within its area will end the ability; minimum range makes this much easier to prevent by shooting the bubble before it touches the Cataclysm.
  • Since Range mods improve both the initial AND final range of the skill, it is possible to create a Cataclysm which never becomes too small to fight inside before it ends naturally, never requiring an early recast.
• The darkest black energy color from the Smoke color palette can greatly increase visibility within the sphere.
• Cataclysm can break loot containers over a large area, and building for range and efficiency is very effective for activities such as farming resources in the Plains of Eidolon.
