This is easiest build i could develop for Profit-Taker and is interchangeable with my CHROMA PRIME for Eidolons build
This guide is focused around You going solo. It will take You from 4-6 mins depending on how You perform, but after few runs You will be closer to 5 mins.
(Just a note here for my end progress i ended up using mod setup from above but instead of [Augur Secrets] i use [Primed Flow] since i benefit more from large energy pool rather than from that extra Strength also since i run with fire element from first emissive color i replaced Arcane [Guardian] with Arcane Nullifier
Also i (and you should also if you have) replaced Handspring with Primed Sure Footed
it looks like this https://i.imgur.com/3CbRjFE.png
Also i run with PRIMARY Kitgun 3-1-13 and SECONDARY Kitgun 3-2-13 (BUILDS IN BUILDS SECTION) since i dont like to spam click fire each time with [Vectis] or wait for reload on [Pandero] even its like half sec long
And i recommend that setup only after u consider yourself veteran enough on profit taker
And im doing it in 4 mins now if rng is good then less than 4 mins)
Thats why mod setup you see in this build on top is for when you start to do profit taker and what is in screenshot above is what you should aim for if you are confident enough in your skills
!!! NOTE !!! ALL DAMAGE HERE NEEDS TO BE DONE WHILE FURY FROM CHROMA'S VEX ARMOR IS FULLY CHARGED !!!
Easiest You can acquire is
Acceltra
covers Radiation Cold Impact and Puncture damage
Pandero
(USE ONLY SECONDARY FIRE) covers Corrosive Heat and Slash damage
Redeemer Prime
covers Magnetic Heat and Blast damage
Larkspur
covers your Archgun need
Easiest You can get if You have Zaw with Exodia Contagion
Zaw with Exodia Contagion (my is Mewan-Plague Bokwin-Vargeet II <- Kroostra is good alternative for Plague Bokwin)
Projectile will carry Elemental damage from Your Zaw's mods and will carry Blast damage but will not add Plague Kripath's Viral damage
Imperator Vandal
Best weapon here (best choice)
Larkspur
2nd best weapon here
[Kuva Ayanga]
Best of them all but only at close range since projectile flight speed is slow but damage insane (choose only if You do it in squad and You camp with Archgun for Profit-Takers shields being down)
Best You can get to make job done easy and fast
Vectis Prime
(because of its fast Fire Rate and Reload Speed)
Pandero (USE ONLY SECONDARY FIRE)
or
Kitgun Rattleguts-Haymaker-Splat AUTO FIRE or Tombfinger-Haymaker-Splat SEMI-AUTO FIRE Both same DPS
While Pandero is better damage Kitgun WONT REQUIRE reload
Zaw with Exodia Contagion (my is Mewan-Plague Bokwin-Vargeet II <- Kroostra is good alternative for Plague Bokwin)
[Mausolon] then [Imperator Vandal] ([Imperator] takes down parts in lets say 4 secs while [Mausolon] in 3 not big difference but its harder to waste ammo with Mausolon and wait for cooldown)
All builds for Primary and Secondary weapons follows the same rule
So mods for Primary weapon are
Mods for Secondary weapon are
So all builds for weapons here are pretty much the same thing with different Utility mod depending on weapon
Thats why i gonna list only few builds to dont copy same thing over and list all weapons that i tested that will do the job in same time/effort
!!! Only exceptions here are [Acceltra] and [Tigris Prime] !!!
While [Acceltra] will work fine without Primed Elemental mod its only weapon here that require Exilus slot unlocked
[Tigris Prime] is Shotgun and have Primed mod with Electricity best scenario here is to go with Electricity and Viral damage since You will be using [Chilling Reload]
I STRONGLY ADVISE NOT TO USE ANY CLOSE RANGE WEAPON AS PRIMARY AND SECONDARY
LIKE FULMIN OR KITGUN WITH CATCHMOON SINCE EVEN MOST OF THEM ARE 1 HIT WEAPONS
U WILL WASTE TIME JUST GETTING CLOSE TO PROFIT-TAKER AND NOT BEING CLOSE ENOUGH TO DO DAMAGE WHILE GETING DAMAGED AND MAGNETIZED YOURSELF
THEY ARE LISTED HERE ONLY AS OPTION FOR YOU
ALL BUILDS LISTED BELOW ARE INTERCHANGEABLE WITH MY OTHER BUILDS
1st best weapon if You dont have Exodia Contagion
2nd or 3rd best weapon if You have Exodia Contagion
Suffers from reload speed but if You have Exodia Contagion You wont use it for Impact and Puncture You wont even need to reload trough whole run
So can be Your best Primary weaponi use [Acceltra] cause i can take down resistance with just 1 ammo clip so for me its best primary for the job)
Kitgun Rattlegust - Brash - Splat
Good option only if you have zaw with Exodia Contagion
And since we have primary kitguns one from parts Rattlegust - Brash - Splat works exactly if not better than [Acceltra] since with even rank 0 Pax Charge magazine changes to battery (racherges on it own) while it have faster Fire Rate and Critical Chance
Also uses less forma so good alternative if you dont have [Acceltra] or even if You do
And this is what im using since i care more for not to care about ammo or reloading rather than doing it 1-2 secs faster with [Vectis]
Fun fact [Trumna] in Polish mean Coffin and im from Poland
Do the job exactly the same as Kitgun and [Acceltra] from above
Only benefit is that you dont worry about ammo or reloadingBut not best option if you dont have Exodia Contagion on Zaw
SEMI mode ONLY at close range
In most cases its 1 hit weapon but considering its close range requirement i dont recommend it for best time hunters
Good alternative if You dont have other weapons listed here
+3 forma is enough for this build
Can be consider as 2nd or 3rd best
USE SECONDARY FIRE
U get [Wild Frenzy] from Night Wave
[Pandero]'s clone its like 1 second slower since You need to wait for whole ammo to be used
And it have large magazine capacity
3rd best weapon
Should be 1st cause of its awesome damage while shooting zoomed in
Until You need to reload that is real shit stopper here
Can be an option if You dont have other weapons listed here
2nd best weapon
Suffers from reload but will do the job just fine
BEST WEAPON TO DO THE JOB
NOTE! Normal [Vectis] with same mods will do the job almost in same speed
I call it best choice because of its Fire Rate and Reload Speed which works in every scenario especially if something goes wrong
Weapons below are tested by me and works in same time/effort as the ones above with same mods difference is only in how they shoot and how You use them
All You need to do is to check if they require more Reload Speed or Fire Rate and use appropriate mod for that
Some weapons works good only in certain mods like Semi Burst or Auto (switch or use it with secondary fire)
For example [Fulmin] works best in SEMI mode
I list them just in case You dont have any weapon from above so that leaves more option for u
[Dex Sybaris]
[Kuva Chakkhurr]
[Kuva Tonkor] (close range)
[Lanka]
[Prisma Gorgon]
[Snipetron Vandal]
[Stradavar Prime] (AUTO)
[Sybaris Prime]
[Telos Boltor]
[Tiberon Prime] (BURST or AUTO)
[Zhuge Prime]
I dont have time to check all weapons so i leave You with general rule
Weapons with 24%+ Critical Chance with either high Magazine capacity or very low will work just fine since they will either benefit from Reload Speed or Fire Rate mods
KITGUN RATTLEGUST - HAYMAKER - SPLAT
(faster Fire Rate Lower damage Auto Mode = hold to fire) or Tombfinger-Haymaker-Splat (higher damage lower Fire Rate Semi-Auto Mode = click to fire) BOTH ARE (2nd best Secondary)
Both have same DPS both use same mod setup and both REQUIRE PAX CHARGE Arcane even rank 0 (i prefer Rattlegust one)This is what im using so i dont need to bother with reloading
Also 2nd/3rd best secondary
(Personally Pyrana Prime is my main Secondary weapon i dont use any other
Thats why to be fai i putting it as 2nd/3rd best secondary but for some ppl it can be 1st
high damage but suffers from Reload Speed)
BEST WEAPON TO DO THE JOB BUT RELOADS
(use only secondary fire)
If u like to trow stuff
(clone of [Pandero] USE SECONDARY FIRE) (faster Fire Rate than [Pandero] only downside it have longer reload time)
Both Kuva Secondary weapons will work with same mod setup as [Pandero]
Your only choice if You dont have Exodia Contagion
Works better at close range (heavy attack deal more damage but TWO normal Melee attacks should do the job)
[High Noon] Stance = hold Melee button until it fire 3 times
[Bullet Dance] Stance = hold Melee button until it fire 2 times
BEST WEAPON TO DO THE JOB
Projectile by itself will cover all Your Zaw's Elements + Blast Impact Puncture and Slash (DOES NOT CARRY OVER PLAGUE KIRPATHS VIRAL DAMAGE) Attack Speed = Projectile Speed
I go with this parts because
1 i like how they look
2 best balance between Impact Puncture Slash damage which is crucial for Profit-Taker
3 aside from highest Critical Chance best balance between bonus damage and Attack Speed
IF YOU WANT AND PROBABLY WILL GO WITH OTHER PARTS 1ST GO TO HOK AND CHOOSE FORGE ZAW THEN CHOOSE YOUR PARTS CHECK PREVIEW GLIDED AND LOOK ON STATS COMPARED TO MY PARTS OR DIFFERENT PARTS SO YOU WONT MAKE [Bo] MK1
(balanced Impact Puncture and Slash damge highest Critical Chance vs Attack Speed also best looking for me)
PLAGUE BOWKIN
(same as above)
Can be replaced with Kroostra EVENTUALLY Jayap
VARGEET II JAI
(DO NOT choose VARGET JAI II)
(same as above)
To throw projectile Double/Bullet Jump hold Aim/Block button and just attack with Your melee
!!! [Ammo Chain] IS MUST HAVE ON ANY ARCHGUN SINCE MORE AMMO YOU HAVE SHORTER COOLDOWN WILL BE !!!
Literally 1hit weapon with 0 forma
BIG disadvantage its charge weapon and while it charge fast it will leave You in "push back" animation after shot
I just like it
And its ok but not user friendly wide projectiles often hit wrong part of Profit-Taker dealing no damage
(best weapon but only at close range)
when Your far away You will shot more bullets than needed wasting time and Your cooldown capabilities
2nd best weapon works kinda in same way as [Imperator Vandal] just little slower
Can be done without 2 forma if you dont add [Magazine Extension] or [Charged Bullets]
Just want to note that Larkspur is only weapon in WHOLE guide that does not use Critical Chance and Critical Damage mods and still melts Profit-Taker
Just best of the best from the best
JUST THE BEST Faster/better than [Imperator Vandal]
BEST ammo economy vs damage
But considering amount of grind you need to put in to get it
I would consider it only if you already have it
For chance of in total 4x credits (including [Chroma]'s Effigy)
[Pack Leader] mod alone heals Smeta if You do melee damage
But for ppl who dont care for credits and go there for fun or for Toroid
Here is Sentinel build i run with
Most basic stuff You can get on Sentinel
MADURAI
Phoenix Spirit/[Talons] = 25% Physical and Elemental damage
NARAMON
[Surging Dash] = lets You dash more with Operator so You can cover more ground for pylons
VAZARIN
Protective Dash = heals any warframe if Void Dash'ed into it
ZENURIK
Energizing Dash = free energy for Your warframe (my personal choice)
CANTIC PRISM
Long Range Shot for cycling Profit-Takers weaknesses (LMB)
PHAHD SCAFFOLD
For dealing with pylons (secondary fire button)
ANSPATHA BRACE
+20 Amp Energy Pool +15/s Energy Recharge Rate (copied that one from wiki)
Easiest equipment to acquire without Arcanes for doing Profit-Taker solo
- Acceltra - Pandero - Redeemer Prime - [Larkspur]
- WITHOUT ARCANE GRACE AND [Guardian]
- This should also work as a tutorial on how to do it without Exodia Contagion and prove its doable without big effort
- Magus Repair did help me do it thats why i recommend it as minimum for ur healing needs
- I gain control at 57 sec of the video and lose it at at 6:17 that makes it 5 min 20 sec run
Best equipment to do Profit-Taker solo without Rivens
- Vectis Prime - Padero - High Critical Chance Zaw with balanced Impact Puncture and Slash damage + Exodia Contagion - [Imperator Vandal]
- I gain control at 1:00 and lose it at 5:16 which makes it 4 min 16 sec run
Comparing run time with 4 different loadouts on Profit-Taker
- I just wanted to prove that only difference here is do u have Zaw+Exodia Contagion or not?
- When u have Exodia Contagion on Zaw run time is only determined by Your skill and RNG and if You lack one of them even Rivens wont help
