(Where it sits)

It is thin on armor (110th of 119) and energy (107th of 119), which is what a build has to answer for.

It ships with 2 polarities already installed, so that much of the board costs no forma.

How to get Nekros

Nekros is a boss drop — every part comes off Deimos/Magnacidium (Assassination). The blueprint itself is bought from the in-game market. Skipping all of it costs 375 platinum in the market, or 100,000 credits for the blueprint alone.
