Does this work with Dethcube's energy generator?
It would appear not
Does this not work on hound precepts?
Note: hildryn cannot make use of this mod at all, you just retain the mystic stack
There is some bug with this mod where hold to cast abilities like Ivara's Quiver or all of Vauban's abilities except Photon Strike don't take away the buff causing them to be always cost 0 energy untill some other ability is cast however it doesn't seem to be all abilities as Titania's Spellbind does remove the buff
Didn't want to edit, as I wasn't sure I would format it right, and didn't know if we'd just prefer a full-on table with yes/no's next to each mod.
But I tested every Precept/ability-like mod that I have, for compatibility with Mystic Bond.
The results are:
Arc Coil: Yes
Botanist: No
Cat's Eye: Yes
Charm: Yes?
Crowd Dispersion: Yes
Detect Vulnerability: No
Panzer Devolution: No
Dig: Yes
Electro Pulse: Yes
Fatal Attraction: Yes
Ferocity: No
Ghost: Yes (I got it to work, despite what the wiki page says. Maybe it was changed in a hotfix?)
Guardian: Yes
Howl: Yes
Loyal Companion: Yes
Mecha Mod-set: Yes
Medi-ray: Yes
Mischief: Yes
Molecular Conversion: Yes
Negate: No
Odomedic: No
Protect: Yes
Sacrifice: No
Shield Charger: Yes
Spare Parts: Yes
Tek Mod-Set: Yes
Vaporize: Yes
Viral Quills: Yes
Any and all Robotic-type precepts that cause the companion to fire their equipped weapon: No.
Hopefully this info can help.
Finally, a mostly-exhaustive list! Thank you so much for this, this information is just what I and many others needed.
What about Survival Instinct (on player kill, -40% enemy accuracy for 8 seconds or until you fire a weapon; 5 second cooldown) for the Sly Vulpaphyla? Does that activate Mystic Bond? It'd synergize well, given it's an "ability" activated by the player instead of the companion's AI, and by doing the one thing you do the most often in Warframe.
To add: Sharpened Claws works very quickly.
Thank you so much
Ammo Case? Stupid question, I know.
Doesn't count Ghost? Well that's shitty cause it's definitely an ability
fun fact: viral quills counts as an ability and has 4 seconds cooldown (free ability cast every 20s)
For some reason, attack mods, such as Assault Mode count as an "ability with cooldown" which results in a free cast every 5 attacks. Probably not intended.
Fixed with last patch
This on Helios for ex. with shield charger & medi ray (or other abilities) + Inner Might is usefull for spy missions. My Ivara almost never needs to use energy for casting Prowl (or Perspicacity in sortie or nightmare missions).
This page needs a list of all the companion abilities that count as having a cooldown.
Works on khora's venari and you can stack two if you use one on venari and another on your companion a good way to save energy great mod i like it
Paired with Dirigas Arc Coil (seems to have a cooldown of sub 1 Second, appears to be reduced by Manifold Bond) without it's other precepts, it can trigger Mystic bond in roughly 3 seconds. Further paired with Manifold Bond you can trigger Mystic Bond so frequently that you don't even need any other energy generators or efficiencies.
Does not seem to work with Wyrms Negate.
Yep
Bug: equip this on a helminth charge with strain mods and have infinite abilities
Works in railjack or archwing or necramech?
For sure doesn't work in archwing since the companion dissappears and its their abilities that triggers the free power not the warframes.
This buff ignores railjack abilities.
