I’ve fought the tank/spider a few times now and every time it’s been a slog. It has some of the more annoying abilities grabbed from other bosses, ex the Eidolon’s stomp, and seems to have the most staggering attacks out of all bosses, or at least uses them very frequently.
With most other bosses, even the more annoying ones like Kela or Profit Taker, I’m mostly thinking about how to play better using normal means to beat the boss… with H-09 I am just thinking to myself: ‘OK, how do I cheese this?’ for most of the second phase.
If you haven’t, you should think about expanding your gameplay into the third dimension. It’s what Warframe is good at, after all. One interaction I frequently make use of is Wisp’s passive with Glaives. Wisp is invisible while airborne, but that invisibility is cancelled once you fire a weapon. However, that doesn’t apply to melee weapons. So if you use an AoE effect melee weapons, such as Glaives with their heavy attack, Wisp’s stealth won’t be cancelled, which allows you to kill hordes of enemies while staying invisible, and all you have to do is staying airborne.
I void sling as my big movement technique. I’ll jump when I need to but for the most part I don’t really enjoy bullet glide, especially when I need to aim precisely. I did enjoy Wisps passive a little when I was maining her but I think I’m just going to use Prime Sure Footed or Jade on future slogs against H-09.
