In terms of community usage stats.

I really like Banshee, but I was shocked to learn she was at a mere 0.53% usage on last year’s published stats. I’m also really fond of Yareli and Gyre.

    Nyx is entirely unnecessary in the normal star chart:

    -Armor strip isn’t needed when they die to normal weapons

    -Chaos isn’t needed when they die too fast to be CCed anyway

    -Mind Control has no effect when enemies do low damage

    But on the Steel Path all these things are inverted and Nyx shines. Enemies still have trouble killing each other, sure, but they stay busy trying. Nyx’s armor strip takes less power strength to get to 100% than any other frame.

    In any case I have a soft spot for her. Still have my original, which I literally farmed by accident. My first built frame, and also the one I did the Second Dream with.

    My usage stats across all frames are basically an inversion of DE’s published ones: Rhino/Mesa/Saryn/Wukong are at the bottom for me, and Nyx/Ivara/Mag/Zephyr at the top.

    Speaking of: Ivara trivializes about half of the Steel Path. You don’t even need to change your frame build for it.

      In a similar vein to Ivara, Ash is also quite strong in steel path though mediocre in regular star chart.
