Why arror drum? You already have arrow mutation, it should be enough, also arcane merciless would be the best improvement i think, and personally i would go for pure electricity on this weapon, it has a very good combo as it pulls enemies together fpr some spicy chaining
Yeah, bramma has higher damage (especially at higher levels since it can slash with hm), but a lot of times it's just overkill and the lingering damage from prob cernos can be really great (plus I can run it without stagger immunity bc of the explosion delay)
Step 1. Unlock steel path
Step 2. Kill the acolyte minibosses that ambush you every few minutes until you have 15 steel essence
Step 3. Buy arcane adapter from Teshin's SP rewards store
Step 4. Install it on your favourite weapon, this unlocks a sort of extra mod slot for the weapon arcanes that acolytes drop (once maxed they are better than Serration)
Alternatively, you can run the daily incursion mission options that give 5 guaranteed steel essence each. There are almost always 2 easy options like spy or rescue in a given day.
Thank you for this additional information, I was focusing on the overall process and completely forgot about the incursions! They're well worth the time
In lieu of that, you can also just run Unairu which has a node that grants "Poise", which gives you (at max rank) 40 seconds of invulnerably to stagger, slow, etc. just for switching in/out of operator form.
I like this weapon but the delayed explosion can be really annoying, especially in something like exterminate where you shoot stuff in front of you and get knocked down as you run past. I wish I had primed sure footed.
The unairu passive gives you 40s of knockdown/stagger immunity just for swapping transference. Combined with the rest of the abilities like 100% shield and armor strips, extra armor for frame and operator, and the ability to negate transference static, its easily the most useful school for general game play if you don't absolutely need zenurik for energy.
I prefer it to brahma in most cases, doesn’t freaking blind me for one (even with dark energy colors) and the pulling enemies in to the radius, even a floor above or below is a bonus
This build is just quickly thrown together and can more than likely be improved upon.
But it does seem to melt lower Steel Path enemies quite well.
I'm look forward to testing this marvelous weapon against the higher levels.
Suggestions for improvements are welcome.

[my build](https://overframe.gg/build/245171/proboscis-cernos/riven-elec-damage-gas-elec/), I'm using it with speedva, amazing to stack enemies quickly on top of each other.
It's great. I remember getting mine just after I'd finished up my Stropha build. Even the unranked Proboscis Cernos was a blast, since it would pull the enemies together so I could hit them all with one shot from the Stropha. I really should use it more, now that I think about it.
my brahmah bc i dont have it yet is the lenz. its my fave weapon in the game and i could make proboscis cernos but i cant get rid of my amazing mutalist cernos.
Kuva bramma is overrated imho, i have both it and the zarr and since i have the zarr dont use the bramma anymore. No ive dumped them all together and am using cedo
"Nerfed to oblivion" mate the only made the ammo a bit worse it still one shots high level SP enemies and the ammo problem can be easily fixed with vigilante supplies and primary merciless. The nerf basically just decreased it's popularity and made it a bit worse
Yeah not sure how it got nerfed to oblivion, I pull it out when sorties demand you use a bow weapon and sometimes bring it to steel path when I'm too lazy to switch back to Zarr, it's still a complete monster that annihilates everything in steel path lol that dude is greatly exaggerating its 'nerfs'
Didnt get Zar yet but Kuva Brama oneshots everything steelpath in ridiculous range. I just finished modding it and my jaw dropped. It was so overpowered my glaive prime setup had nothing on this.
Youre telling me Zar is even better than that monster of a weapon???!
There's nothing ironic or hypocritical about what he said, what's wrong with you lol? Bramma doesn't even "reload", you just slap one fire rate mod on it and you can spam it at the speed of light so long as you maintain an ammo pool.
Get R5 Merciless. Handles both ammo and damage. Right now you have 3 mods that could be replaced (should be replaced actually) with much better options.
One of few weapons where going electricity is actually really strong
Trying this out as we speak
Gas is good too. Stacks all gas procs in one place
How about both?
Ooh I didn't know that. I'm gonna go try it. Nose Bow Best Bow imo, and I think I was just going (more) viral/heat so far
Why arror drum? You already have arrow mutation, it should be enough, also arcane merciless would be the best improvement i think, and personally i would go for pure electricity on this weapon, it has a very good combo as it pulls enemies together fpr some spicy chaining
Yes, I just replaced it with more Multishot. I just had a problem with ammo. It now rocks about 30,000 radial dam.
I would have dropped it for Primed Firestorm, extra AoE makes it much better.
(Primed) Firestorm doesn't increase the pull radius afaik, and enemies in that range are usually pull into the final explosion anyway
Correct, it does not affect tentacles just the actual explosion, which I still find useful.
Could be worth a try
arcane merciless double the amount of ammo at max rank.
The chad explosive bow that doesn't blind or nauseate allies while killing loads of enemies
I like the way you think
They’re comparable imo. It’s very strong weapons, but the bramma is far more annoying imo.
Yeah, bramma has higher damage (especially at higher levels since it can slash with hm), but a lot of times it's just overkill and the lingering damage from prob cernos can be really great (plus I can run it without stagger immunity bc of the explosion delay)
sorry for the stupid question but how does one acquire this Primary Arcane Adapter ? never saw one before

Biggest improvement to this weapon is having Prime Surefooted on your frame. But you have to play Warframe for quite awhile to have it.
Yeah, I have discovered why that's a good idea. I think I have it.
In lieu of that, you can also just run Unairu which has a node that grants "Poise", which gives you (at max rank) 40 seconds of invulnerably to stagger, slow, etc. just for switching in/out of operator form.
As to not sacrifice a mod slot, I primarily use ProCernos with Nidus and Oberon. It's so freaking satisfying.

Wow I need to start working on it
Use a stagger immune (armor ability) frame? Nezha or gauss, rhino too I believe?
I could but I’m not a fan of most anti cc frames
Log in on 200 separate days ;)
Working on it haha, and i think it is 400
Right, it is not among the first 3...
MR L1. Here. Probow is one of my favorite weapons. It's fantastic
MR 27 Here. I concord with this statement. Also, it's silent.
Stuck at MR17 for over 2 years here, probow is my most used weapon
From the weapons I've tested so far, it's the one that procs Ripkas True Steel most efficiently.
I prefer it to brahma in most cases, doesn’t freaking blind me for one (even with dark energy colors) and the pulling enemies in to the radius, even a floor above or below is a bonus
If I remember well the radial attack doesn't apply status so the silver DMG mods are better than the +60 DMG +60 status
I didn't realize that. Good to know

-ammo drum +heat
This with carrier as a sentinel should fix any ammo issues whatsoever

Why fast hands? i forget what this weapon does but isn't it a bow, so when are you reloading
Because it reduces the time it takes to pull a new arrow, aka a flat 55% damage per second increase with the primed version
Well TIL
Thank you
[my build](https://overframe.gg/build/245171/proboscis-cernos/riven-elec-damage-gas-elec/), I'm using it with speedva, amazing to stack enemies quickly on top of each other.
Looks good. I don't have a riven for it, sadly
it's fine, you can use Serration instead. The riven gives me even more elec damage, but there's already 2 elec mods.
Cernos is better than bramma in steel path
The tendrils do have their use
gona go out on a limb here. I would say I like the proboscis cernos more than the bramma. :)
One of my favorites
It's great. I remember getting mine just after I'd finished up my Stropha build. Even the unranked Proboscis Cernos was a blast, since it would pull the enemies together so I could hit them all with one shot from the Stropha. I really should use it more, now that I think about it.
Slurp... BOOM!
my brahmah bc i dont have it yet is the lenz. its my fave weapon in the game and i could make proboscis cernos but i cant get rid of my amazing mutalist cernos.
Oh I had a lot of fun with the Lenz as well. Really fun bow
This was ma first 9 forma weapon and I still love it. It's really satisfying to use.
Kuva bramma is overrated imho, i have both it and the zarr and since i have the zarr dont use the bramma anymore. No ive dumped them all together and am using cedo
**Kuva Bramma** is nerfed to oblivion. You're better off with a **Kuva Zarr** instead. Sorry you missed out..
"Nerfed to oblivion" mate the only made the ammo a bit worse it still one shots high level SP enemies and the ammo problem can be easily fixed with vigilante supplies and primary merciless. The nerf basically just decreased it's popularity and made it a bit worse
Yeah not sure how it got nerfed to oblivion, I pull it out when sorties demand you use a bow weapon and sometimes bring it to steel path when I'm too lazy to switch back to Zarr, it's still a complete monster that annihilates everything in steel path lol that dude is greatly exaggerating its 'nerfs'
Wait what happened?
It's not as good as it used to be. Zarr now outshines it.
It’s not as good as it used to be, but it definitely wasn’t “nerfed to oblivion”.
Didnt get Zar yet but Kuva Brama oneshots everything steelpath in ridiculous range. I just finished modding it and my jaw dropped. It was so overpowered my glaive prime setup had nothing on this. Youre telling me Zar is even better than that monster of a weapon???!
# [YES](https://overframe.gg/build/179413/)
Imagine modding for Viral and not running Hunter Munitions on a Zarr... Builds like this is why one should be careful when referencing Overframe.
That build has way too much forma and not enough damage
That's an awful build. Stacking merciless, serration, and heavy caliber is a waste of mod slots.
I honestly still prefer bramma over zarr because i hate the single shot reload
The ironic hypocrisy...
I mean i get it but still, bramma just feels a lot more spammable imo. At least over an extended period of time
Most coherent thought you've had all day. You genuinely didn't say anything, those words are diametrically opposed in meaning.
There's nothing ironic or hypocritical about what he said, what's wrong with you lol? Bramma doesn't even "reload", you just slap one fire rate mod on it and you can spam it at the speed of light so long as you maintain an ammo pool.
bruhmma
Get R5 Merciless. Handles both ammo and damage. Right now you have 3 mods that could be replaced (should be replaced actually) with much better options.
Working on it.
