The monk, the paci(fying)fist, best Exalted Weapon frame - Baruuk!

Release date: 2018-12-18

Passive: Baruuk's tolerance for violence wanes as his hand is forced by his foes. Restraint is a resource unique to Baruuk that provides up to 50% Damage Reduction when the meter is completely depleted.
Elude - Dodge all incoming projectiles, but only while not attacking. Use again to deactivate this ability.
Lull - A calming wave slows enemies until they fall into a slumber. Enemies woken by damage will be confused and disoriented. Short-term amnesia means all waking enemies forget anything that happened before the lull.
Desolate Hands - Summon a bevy of orbiting daggers to seek out enemy guns, destroying them with a small explosion. Combine with Elude to double the range.
Serene Storm - With his Restraint eroded, Baruuk commands the Desert Wind to deliver powerful radial strikes with his fists and feet. Each moment commanding the storm restores his Restraint.

Acquisition: Blueprints can be purchased from Little Duck of Vox Solaris. The main blueprint requires players to be at Rank 2 - Agent, while component blueprints require Rank 3 - Hand.

I always found the idea of a pacifist in a game designed around war crimes and indiscriminate murder to be a little silly. Doubly so when his main appeal is his killing potential. So much for peace and love! I just pretend he stands for pacifying fist instead, it makes much more sense.

Baruuk in one of the few holdouts that still manages to salvage the Exalted Weapon system, succeeding despite all of it's limitations. The large part that contributes to it is his amazing augment, of course. I think it's pretty widely known but this guy is really really good. He's got tankyness, CC and insane levels of damage in a wide area. Not much more you could want from a frame.

He's another frame I like to take for a spin from time to time. I have a bit of a soft spot for Exalted melee brawlers; they're one of my favorite power fantasies for frames.

I think his Restraint mechanic is an interesting way of gating access to his strongest ability, though I do find it hilarious that his optimal build requires you to absolutely decimate his ability duration.

I love that the modding system in Warframe allows you to hyper-focus on optimizing for one specific thing like that. Corrupted Mods are still the best designed mods in Warframe, sacrificing one stat to greatly boost another is a great design, especially when you can turn a downside into an upside like with Baruuk! I just wish weapon modding was even a quarter as flexible and involved as frame modding is.

Is baruuk good? I liked punch weapons when I was a wee babxcalibur, but never really went back to them. I don't want to do more vox solaris stuff to get his base frame, but I do have his prime gathering dust.

He's insanely strong, one of the best DPS frames in the game period. And he's likely to only get stronger with the enemy resistance changes as his 4 with it's augment does adaptive damage. His only weakness is he is not amazing at lower level content (lower level here means below lvl 100) because you need to use his 1,2 and 3 to build meter to use his 4, and at this enemy level just using a gun or bringing a DPS frame with no build-up required is often better.

Oh, nice. I somehow missed any talk about baruuk during all of my time in warframe. Maybe I'll splurge on the deluxe skin and make him my next frame to obsess over for a month or two like I'm doing with Sevagoth right now.

Lamp helmet. (Sorry I don't really use him)
