TL;DR You can be selfish and go for ~850%, 60 sec personal Vex or build for ~700%, 35 sec 30ish meter team buff Vex. I prefer the latter esp. since Volts with Lanka can two-shot limbs and my buffs would make it a guaranteed oneshot.
You want Vitality and Steel Fiber for tank. Without the latter you are too squishy and it's a lot easier to die both to chaos around you and when self damaging with Cerata.
You want enough efficiency for Vex to be below 100 energy so that a single Pizza can feed it. Get used to eating Pizza all the time because Void Strike is meta.
You want your Cerata to cause 100hp in self damage while under 72% damage reduction Bless. With Steel Fiber you won't kill yourself even without Bless.
Make a balanced strength>duration>range build instead of dumping range. Small increments in strength or duration on top of main line mods for those do not amount to much so you would rather boost other stats instead.
Use sniper rifles. Dead Eye aura. Empty a magazine or two on the invulnerable Eidolon to build a 2.5-3x combo counter that will last you a while. 3x+ Void Strike buff easily obtained by spoiler mode crouching through energy spikes. Spend on shields but save the last charge for the limb.
Stay together with everyone under volt shields and get used to shooting scoped sniper rifles at things right up in your face. Expect Volt to steal your thunder on a good number of occasions.
DoombatINC When building your utility Loki (for spy vaults, open world solo work or just having a laugh), there's really only two variables you need to tinker with: duration and mobility.
For the former, I run Primed Continuity and Narrow Minded - which does impact my Switch Teleport hijinks, but the range is still enough for practical use. This is enough duration to get me around half a minute of invisibility, which is plenty.
For the latter, it's Rush, Speed Drift, Maglev and Patagium (plus the new Amalgam Serration). That all might sound like overkill but, once you've gotten acclimated to this much speed and freedom of movement, you will begin to resent its absence in other frames.
Since Loki has a lot of wild card slots, pack him with some quality of life stuff. Some range is nice to counterbalance the Narrow Minded, and if you're gonna do that you might as well put Irradiating Disarm on there for some combat practicality. You might also want more duration, depending on how comfortable you are with the frame. Right now my main setup uses Streamline, Hushed Invisibly and Adaptation - which is the best one-slot tank I've found for Loki since it's uniquely adept at mitigating shock traps, toxic auras, status damage, AoE spam and static hazards (which are the only things of any real threat to Loki, I find).
Keep your cloak up, dip into corners and out of sight when your timer is low, and try not to body check too many guys when running through the halls if you're trying to keep a low profile. Switch Teleporting your own Decoy can get you through tons of obstacles, just make sure wherever you're standing when you do it is out of sight since your Decoy can set off cameras and such. Don't underestimate your Decoy, either, you'd be surprised how often it can save your bacon. Disarm makes a good panic button, but it really demands a dedicated build to get the most out of it.
He works well with sniper rifles and especially bows (since you'll need to disappear some pesky enemies quickly, before they can scream or return fire), and a fast melee with a broad sweep lets you clear-cut through obstructive mobs. Don't attempt a stand up fight with anything, though, as once you hit sortie levels you can be killed with eye contact. Stick to hit and run, picking groups apart on the approach and crashing through them with a sliding sweep, stifling your momentum as little as possible.
With a little practice (and a few dozen instant deaths while mid sprint, resulting in you watching your corpse fling across all of creation like a marionette fired from a t-shirt cannon), you too will be the vault crushing, mob bisecting, physics disregarding Jason Voorhees of the Origin System!
Avulsion on SA 2 builds, one "Stackless" which is unique.
Tuxedo Catfish on SA apart from all the high-end stuff i've posted, here's babby's first Nidus: https://tennoware.com/warframes/nid...505c61000000000
this build uses only 3 forma but fair warning: in the long run you will probably not want that many vazarin (D) polarities. going up to 4 forma for a total of one D, two Y, and three - (including your aura slot) is much safer because virtually every Nidus build ever is going to have Blind Rage, Overextended, Hunter Adrenaline (or Rage), Stretch, a dash aura, and one other dash mod (Primed Flow, Augur Reach, etc.)
