[Builds] Rhino Shrapnel Spam [Novelty] [Energy Hungry] [Damage: 70]


[Novelty]
This is basically a FUN build. Use at your own discretion. :)

[Energy Hungry]
This build has no efficiency and works best in a team with an EV Trinity

[Damage: 70]
The damage dealt by this frame can deal with unbuffed normal enemies up to level 70

The Platina skin is out for Rhino! Time to give the big guy another chance. The original goal was to give Excalibur a run for his money but despite the relatively low damage, the spammy nature of Radial Javelin (RJ) is just too much for Rhino to compete with on top of the superior range RJ has.

The Build


It's a basic max build. Cram as much Power Strength and Range in, add a bit of duration and that's it.

Lightning Dash (LD) is optional of course and so is the Corrosive Projection.

I should forma that "-" polarity so I can use Primed Continuity instead of Constitution to get  more duration, but after getting knocked down by scorpions mid Iron Skin (IS) spam I'm kinda thinking the knockdown recovery might be nice. So that's up to you too.

Here's the Ability Screen

Pretty good Range and Damage Overall. Consider that all damage is affected by the Roar multiplier.

IS is also VERY powerful, clearing any mobs not killed by the stomp. Too bad the range maxes at 25 meters. Also the damage decreases the farther the enemy is from Rhino. Still it's a decent skill.

Damage Values while Buffed


Iron Shrapnel: 5698.56 (decreases with distance)

Stomp: 3799.04

Pretty impressive numbers as long as you can keep the buff up. :)

Execution


So you basic game plan is to keep Roar up 100% or as close to that as possible. With your range your Team will almost always be in range. Stomp, then toggle shrapnel while looking for stragglers and repeat.

Suggested Use Scenarios


This is a perfect complement to RJ Excal in Draco or for ODD runs as long as you have an EV.

This will not work in any mission without EV support as the skill cost would be too much to sustain effective power damage output.

Notes


Rhino is supposed to be reworked. That's another reason I'm holding off on the forma.

Rhino's not the best in terms of Damage output, but his Roar is one of the best straight damage buffs out there.  Rhino + Nova would result in a damage multiplier of 4+ depending on the build of the Rhino. Coupled with the fact that it affects everything that damage on your team it's pretty good. Think Syndicate Procs :). 4k Viral+Proc anyone?

I'm really looking forward to the rework.

Thanks for reading!
