before i overdo it, what is considered a “normal” amount of forma to apply to weapons/frames? i main nidus and i can’t see myself using 7 or 8 forma unless there is a really specific high cost build that is extremely efficient, but just curious what the average stopping point is, before i waste forma upgrading more than really necessary.
As many times as required to put on the build I want to put on. That was especially problematic before umbra forma if I wanted to use two umbral mods, and it’s problematic today with ranged weapons because they don’t have stances/auras to increase mod capacity, and the primed & galvanized mods cost a lot of capacity.
The only problem is that it also limits the builds I can put on because of conflicting polarities.
any forma will increase the power level of something. so I guess you can stop where said equipment feels good. simulacrum helps.
of course if you’re at the endgame, farming platinum like me, you can forma without a second thought. being MR 30 and above you don’t even feel the impact of resetting its rank
Generally 3 to 5 Forma on most things. It’s rare that it’ll need more to be able to use the best build I could put on it even with 8 Forma.
Most of my builds only have two or three except the things I really wanted to invest some time in leveling back up.
