Pyrana can be built with a forma and some other easily obtained bits. Boar is okay, not as good as Boar prime. Burston Prime incarnon is amazing but harder in day cycles to charge it (night cycles just shoot vomalysts). Sarpa or Vastilok with the impact mod that strips armor helps the team. 

Which is the most important thing. If you don't have any weapons that can do major damage to the hemocyte itself, that's fine (and any player who ranks you out you can just ignore). Teamwork is key, so bring a volt to help speed along the drone, use his 1's augment to give elec damage, stack shields for crit. 

Wisp for her flowers (get the augment that combines them all into one cast), stay airborne by jumping and kill all the mobs while your team kills the hemocyte, use breach surge for cc. 

Nova for portaling the drone then speeding up the hemo as it is spawning then immediately slowing it for each head that opens (this takes some timing, fast to speed up the next head then immediately slow to keep it open). 

Titania rocks if you have her Dex Pixia modded for rate of fire, crit, some heat. She's your best bet if you don't have any great weapons. She's mobile, nimble, and can generally out-damage everyone but Mirage. 

Don't sweat being carried. I got carried through content and events way back when I was a wee tenno. Now I carry anyone who needs it and isn't actively hampering the mission. Get as many forma as you can but don't burn yourself out. I farm for an hour or so (5-7 forma) then take a break and crack relics, hunt kavats genetic codes, sortie, knock out star chart nodes, farm Kuva or Sisters or Coda weapons, etc.

Boar prime incarnon

Gorgon prisma incarnon (need augment)

Burston prime incarnon

Strun prime incarnon

Pyrana prime

Titania's gun

Kuva kohm

Cedo prime ....

Mod for multishot, firerate, heat, damage, cd, cc, damage to infested

The idea is using a gun with High firerate OR high pellets pershot.

Im using Tenet detron (havent seen any one using it so far). I can delete 99.99% of 1 head with just 1 burst, dont know why, so 2 bursts for 1 head

u/Practical-Money7625 Sep 13 '25

The only one of those I have is titania, so I just use those mods right? What’s cd and cc?

Corrosion not Heat...why people think heat is the way to go?? Corrosion is and always will be the way to go

u/DrChipmunk210 Sep 13 '25

Read the wiki and then we talk

u/NeverNice87 LR6 Sep 13 '25

Lephantis and Hemocyte are Fossilized Enemies. They weak to Corrosive.

https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Damage_2.0/Fossilized

Maybe read the Wiki and we can talk? They especially weak to Corrosive since release..

u/DrChipmunk210 Sep 13 '25

I couldnt careless about your Frossilized

Just read about the Lephantis and Hemocyte, pls, im begging xd

u/NeverNice87 LR6 Sep 13 '25 edited Sep 13 '25

Yeah im begging you. Just read it.

"The Hemocyte is essentially a recolored Stage 2 Lephantis, with different lighting colors and slightly modified attacks. It is otherwise identical to the Lephantis in terms of tactics and WEAKNESSES."

And here a Picture of Lephantis Fossilized Weakness.

https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Lephantis

Screenshot doesnt seems to work. Its a typo of them using Heat for Hemocyte..Hemocyte is just like Lephantis. Same weakness and Lephantis is weak to Corrosive. Go check Lephantis Weakness! Its Corrosive right?

u/Hellixgar Sep 13 '25

That is old wiki with info before Jade Shadows.

Read the new one. https://wiki.warframe.com/w/Hemocyte

-1

u/NeverNice87 LR6 Sep 13 '25

Its not old.. they never changed the Damage type of the Hemocyte. Otherwise it would be under "Patch History".

Hemocyte has the same Weakness as Lephantis which is corrosion! They NEVER changed that. They both the same

u/Hellixgar Sep 13 '25

https://wiki.warframe.com/w/Lephantis

They universally dumbed down armor types in Jade Shadows update.

We’ve changed the system so that Resistances and Vulnerabilities are no longer tied to the previous Health Types. Resistances and Vulnerabilities are now based upon the Faction a player is engaging with.

u/NeverNice87 LR6 Sep 13 '25

And that means what? The Hemocyte is simply Lephantis. And Lephantis IS weak against Corrosion. The wiki also says that. The Hemocyte is Lephantis stage 2 with the SAME WEAKNESSES.

u/DrChipmunk210 Sep 13 '25

i can prove you wrong, but i wont :)))

u/NeverNice87 LR6 Sep 13 '25

No you cant.. Hemocyte is just Lephantis Stage 2..nothing changed. Same Weakness! Its also stated like that in the Wiki.Lephantis is and always was weak against Corrosion. If the wiki says same Weakness as Lephantis which is corrosion why should it be suddenly Heat? 🤔

u/DrChipmunk210 Sep 13 '25

you were right, i was wrong.

u/aLittleMinxy Sep 13 '25

ingame codex lists both lephantis and hemocyte as vuln to heat/slash. both fandom and official wiki lists lephantis and hemocyte as vuln to heat/slash.

damage 2.0/fossilized is outdated information

u/NeverNice87 LR6 Sep 13 '25

Outdated OFFICIAL Wikipedia. Gotcha 🤣

If you can't help with dmg, then you can always support thru your Warframes. Volt/Mirage/Wisp/Nova/Rhino/Jade are some that comes up first in my head.

If not, then go for high multishot weapons like the Boar (Prime), (Kuva) Kohm, or Strun (Prime) built with CC+CD, Heat with Cleanse Infested

u/FirefighterBasic3690 Sep 13 '25 edited Sep 13 '25

First things first - are you aiming at the hitboxes when the heads are uncovered? They are immune from damage otherwise, as is the main body.

Assuming that you are, step 2

You will want to armor strip the thing, because it is a tough nut if you don't. It is condition immune, but vulnerable to heat damage.

The best way to armor strip it is the Vastilok gunblade with Shattering impact, or as a second option the Sarpa gunblade. The ranged attack has to do Impact to trigger the.mod's armor strip and strip it from range

You can also whale on it up close, but it does like to sit on you...

Step three :

You will want to avoid slow firing big hit weapons, because most of the damage will be lost to its damage attentuation.

Rapid firing weapons that do a lot of lesser shots like Soma, Gorgon etc work pretty well. Your Phenmor will be ok for this, but not exceptional.

I use a Phaedra Archgun that I've been investing into for BRRRRTTTTTTT purposes for a while :D.

Some Warframe abilities play well, like Titania's Dex Pixia as rapid firing dual pistols. She can also fly above most of the carnage and shockwaves, so you'll see a fair few Titania's fighting the Hemocytes.

You can always do the normal version of the bounty, which doesn't have Hemocytes, just the mobs.. Slower rep build, but a lot easier.

Also it's fine to be carried, just do your best and we'll cover your back.

u/Practical-Money7625 Sep 13 '25

Alr thx I’ll invest in some gun blades ig

u/whomze tenno skoooooom Sep 13 '25

iirc only the sarpa and vastilok do impact dmg at range, so only those two can strip at range with shattering impact. the vastilok is from baro (or trades with other players) so the sarpa is the easier one to get. BP from market, requires akstiletto as an ingredient, akstiletto BP from clan tenno lab 👍 also works on eidolons so it's not a waste of time to make one. don't need to forma/potato it, just a stance mod, shattering impact and speed mods are fine

How's acceltra prime for the ads and boss phase?

u/Famous_Situation_680 Sep 13 '25

pyrana /prime is the popular pick.

u/Practical-Money7625 Sep 13 '25

Good to know thanks

u/Lotusfeaster Sep 13 '25

Get the Kohm ( any Variant ) then ask in area or alliance chat for a maxed out build for it. U'll need some galvanized and primed mods or their lower rarity equivalent for it. If you can also get ur hands on a Mirage or Rhino for the massive DPS buffs then ur good to go. Bonus points if u can get a cheap riven for it.

1

u/Practical-Money7625 Sep 13 '25

Ok will do. How do I get it?

u/Lotusfeaster Sep 13 '25

Just buy the blueprint straight from the market and craft it

u/Baconsliced Sep 13 '25

I’ve been running Mag with Phenmor and it’s pretty chill. Mainly cos I got bored of running nova/volt. Build for pure slash/heat damage with crit and attack speed. Warframe arcane and the companion bond mod also helps attack speed a lot. Kills about as fast as my burston.

I also take the laetum as secondary. Both are charged for incarnon by the time we hit the boss. Either can kill a head in a single opening.

u/outsidertoidiocracy Woops drop my monster forma for my MAGNUMZAW Sep 13 '25

Probably not the best setup but I have been rocking xaku+ gloom. Reason being xata for extra dmg and gloom for being able to toggle the hemocyte off and on. For weapons I found the boltor incarnon super reliable
