Lavos Prime
Some Warframes were Prime from the start. Others ascended. Lavos, the master of transmutation, bowed to no one as he forged his own path to valor.

(Where it sits)
Across the 119 frames in the roster, Lavos Prime sits in the top fifteen per cent for armor (5th of 119) and health (10th of 119).
It is thin on energy (119th of 119), which is what a build has to answer for.
It ships with 3 polarities already installed, plus Naramon on the aura slot, so that much of the board costs no forma.

Augment: Swift Bite

02 Vial Rush 5s cooldown Subsumable
Dash forward, crashing through enemies and leaving an icy trail of broken vials. Hold to imbue the next ability cast with Cold.
-
03 Transmutation Probe 10s cooldown
Launch a probe that converts Health and Energy Orbs into Universal Orbs that provide both, and ammo pickups into Universal Ammo Pickups. The probe shocks enemies in close proximity. Each electrocuted foe reduces other ability cooldowns by 1.5s. Hold to imbue the next ability cast with Electricity.
Augment: Lingering Transmutation

04 Catalyze 30s cooldown
Catalyst Probes erupt from Lavos and douse combatants in a fiery gel. Damage is doubled for each element afflicting an enemy. Hold to imbue the next ability cast with Heat.
Costs are base figures, before efficiency.
