I’m still new to the game, and now, after playing exclusively with Volt, I find myself in a position where I can build Rhino, Nekros and Vauban.

I’ve heard the Rhino is good for survivability, but that hasn’t really been an issue so far, so that’s not a big seller for me.

Any tips or suggestions? I feel like it’s taken forever to get to the point where I could build a frame, so having to choose from 3 is mind boggling.

Nekros looks the coolest to me, so that’s how I’m leaning right now.

    Honestly, while you’re new to the game, just pick up the frame that looks the coolest to you.

    At low levels (anything up to 30), all frames can run most if not all missions. Later on you’ll find that certain frames specialize in certain things, like Rhino for leveling new weapons quickly or Nekros for farming certain resources.

    Doesn’t matter, in no time at all you’ll be getting a new frame and levelling it to 30 a couple of times (because of forma) in the same day (absent the delay for build times, but that isn’t time where you need to do anything) All the frames can do standard star chart stuff

    But if I was prioritising warframes I’d ensure I had an area CC Warframe like Vauban, Khora, Nova, etc as they are useful for defense/mobile defense/excavation

      Thanks! I appreciate the tip.
      I’ve watched some videos, and they just kept saying to get Rhino. Is he boring? Between him and Vauban, what would you get? I think I have 2 slots.

        I agree with some of the other comments, Rhino is great but his survivability can end up being a crutch as far as playing other frames and keeping them alive. I recommend Nekros because the extra resources is nice and he’s one of my personal favorites but if you want to be tanky Rhino is the frame for you

    Go for Revenant. Practically immortal disregard to enemy lvl, has crowd control and cool mobility. Scales incredibly well to late game. Best frame for endurance runs period. Can protect all team with mesmer shield augument. No need to get prime version as there is no difference. Relatively low invesment to achieve perfection.

      Revenant is quite difficult to get early in the game. You have to do Eidolon Hunting to get him and that’s a difficult thing for a new player to do.
