· The Warframe featured in the video thumbnail is Oberon, and this is an introduction to the High-Rim skin concept art.
· We hope this concept art reaches Digital Extremes, and if you like it, please share it with reference to the description.

· Sharing the best Oberon build currently in use.
· With this build, you can defeat enemies solely with abilities, become nearly immortal, and secure infinite energy to continuously use your skills.

· For maximum Power Strength, we use the 'Blind Rage' and 'Transient Fortitude' mods.
· Red Tau Forged Archon Shards can be used to further boost Power Strength.
· Topaz Archon Shards, which grant bonus ability damage to enemies affected by Radiation status, are also a good choice.
· The reason Power Strength is important is that the damage scaling of 'Smite' is directly linked to the enemy's maximum health and shield percentage. The higher the Power Strength, the greater this percentage becomes, allowing for more damage.
· High-level enemies have immense health and shields, so even a small increase in this percentage leads to a significant increase in actual damage.

· Smite deals Impact and Radiation damage on its first hit, but its true power comes from the homing projectiles that are fired afterward.
· These projectiles deal Radiation damage as a percentage of the target's maximum health and shields.
· Therefore, when using Smite on high-level, powerful enemies, it weaponizes their high health pool to distribute damage to surrounding enemies.
· This scaling method makes Smite more effective as enemy levels increase.
· Topaz Archon Shards synergize very well with Smite's scaling method. Since Smite's base damage is already percentage-based, the additional ability damage multiplier from Topaz Shards significantly amplifies the final damage.

· Topaz Archon Shards are highly effective for Smite's percentage-based damage amplification.
· When combined with high Power Strength, Roar, Topaz Shards, or other multiplicative buffs, Smite can deal damage far exceeding typical scaling expectations.
· This is particularly effective against Steel Path enemies with massive health pools.
· Furthermore, Power Strength also enhances the damage buff from Roar, which is used as a sub-ability, and this has a multiplicative effect with Smite.

· Roar also provides the Power Strength needed to completely strip enemy armor with 'Reckoning'.
· 'Primed Flow' is essential for energy management.
· 'Primed Continuity' extends the duration of 'Hallowed Ground' and 'Roar'.

· 'Arcane Universal Fallout' is very useful for energy sustain, as Oberon's 'Hallowed Ground' and 'Reckoning' cause Radiation status effects.
· However, there are situations where the 'Equilibrium' mod is better. It's particularly useful in missions with low enemy density and focus on eliminating special units, such as Level Cap missions (e.g., Void Cascade, Disruption).
· Oberon's ultimate ability causes enemies to drop health orbs, which can then be converted into energy with the Equilibrium mod.
· Therefore, in general situations, use Arcane Universal Fallout, and if you want better energy sustain, you can use it with Equilibrium.
· Equilibrium makes the health orb drops from Reckoning more valuable, helping to utilize Oberon's invulnerability charge passive.

· For survivability, we strongly recommend adding shield gating to the build.
· Oberon's passive, thanks to Reckoning and Arcane Universal Fallout, continuously generates health orbs, making you nearly immortal.
· However, shield gating acts as a safety net in case this fails.
· To achieve this, you can use 'Brief Respite' in the aura slot and equip at least two Augur mods on your secondary weapon to increase the shields gained when casting abilities.
· Other arcane slots can be chosen according to preference, but 'Molt Augmented' is recommended for additional Power Strength.

· It's recommended to achieve as much range as possible to affect more enemies with 'Hallowed Ground' and 'Reckoning'.
· We recommend using 'Epitaph' or its Prime version, modded for high fire rate, status chance, and Viral damage.
· This is to maximize Viral status stacks before casting Smite on enemies, significantly increasing damage.
· Additionally, using a beast companion equipped with the 'Contagious Bond' mod is also recommended.
· For example, using a Smeeta Kavat allows you to apply status effects to enemies first.
· If the Kavat defeats the target, the status effects spread, dealing massive damage, so this combination acts as a powerful status damage dealer.

· Roar also increases the companion's damage, allowing the beast to very easily defeat targets with its claws using this mod setup.

· Augment mods vary depending on the situation, but 'Hallowed Reckoning' is highly recommended.
· This mod increases the range of the ultimate ability, provides armor to allies, and deals Radiation damage per second to enemies.
· 'Hallowed Eruption' is particularly useful for defense objectives.
· To use an augment mod, you can replace the 'Augur Secrets' mod.

· When enemies are affected by Radiation status, their behavior patterns and spawn flow may feel different from usual.
· There will be times when you need to approach and defeat enemies first, rather than waiting for them to come to you.
· However, this is not a major issue if you continue to defeat enemies and move actively.
