As you begin to explore the new and improved world of MK1-Strun, there’s a lot that can be said about it. This is an expansive game with many different facets, one which has only been in development for three months. That being said, we’re here now at release date day and want to prepare ourselves through this guide before jumping into action!.
Strun is one of the most popular and oldest PvP servers. The server has been online since 2011, and it continues to have a large player base. In 2020, Strun Prime was released as a new build that brought many changes to the game.
The MK1-Strun is the standard issue shotgun for all Tenno, and it’s probable that most rookie Warframe players will utilize it. The MK1 variation of the regular issue Strun is one of the first weapons you’ll come across in the game.
MK1 variants of weapons are weaker than their standard forms, however they don’t need a mastery level and may be purchased for credits rather than plat on the market.
However, since this is a new player weapon, I would advocate utilizing another shotgun, however there are builds that work if you truly want to max out this weapon.
What’s New With MK1-Strun?
This weapon primarily does impact damage, but it also has a high status chance and good ammunition efficiency, not to mention one of the game’s highest intrinsic multi-shots.
While the MK1-Strun isn’t the weapon I’d choose for high-level missions (level 70+), it can still be employed in a number of new and interesting ways by a variety of Warframes.
Where Can I Get MK1-Strun?
Because the MK1-Strun belongs to the MK1 class of weaponry, it is rather simple to get. They may be purchased for 15k credits on the market, which is a reasonable price, and easily farmed up by completing a number of the star chart’s beginning tasks, or picked up in the Vor’s reward quest.
The MK1-Strun is unusual in that it has no mastery requirements, making it accessible to anybody.
Advantages of MK1-Strun
The MK1-Strun is a weapon that doesn’t have a lot of benefits, but it excels at the ones it does have.
Its first benefit is its high impact damage and how effective it is against shields when coupled with a high-status build. This may be utilized to your advantage since you can simply craft a high magnetic build to deal with the corpus when paired with a high-status build.
Its second benefit is that it has one of the greatest status chances of all the beginning shotguns. It comes with a starting multi shot of 10 pellets, which means you’ll receive 10 pellets every round if you don’t use any multi shot modifications.
This is a benefit since status is computed independently for each pellet, therefore the more pellets you fire, the greater chances you have of triggering the status chance on it. Multi shot also works beautifully with the Warframe Mag and her 2nd ability.
The fact that it reloads one shot at a time is the last benefit.
This is excellent for novice players since they may stop the reload animation at any moment, which means you can interrupt it if you find yourself in a sticky position right away.
Disadvantages of MK1-Strun
While the MK1-Strun may be made viable with the correct combination of upgrades and Warframes, it is still a beginning weapon.
Its first flaw would have to be its damage, which is currently the second lowest of all the shotguns in the game.
Not to add that its absence of cut and pierce damage means that armored troops like the grinner and units with just health like the infected will take less damage.
While they may be readily corrected with a few tweaks, new players may not always have access to them.
Another of its major flaws is that it has a low crit probability and a small magazine size, which effectively rules out crit builds and makes them less effective.
Another problem that new players may encounter is the game’s abrupt linear damage falloff.
This means that the more away you are from the adversary, the less damage you will cause, and this, along with its poor accuracy, means that you will have to get up close to inflict any significant damage.
Builds for MK1-Strun
Let’s look at some of the top MK1-Strun builds:
MK1-Strun Build for Beginners (0 Forma)
This is the build I would suggest to beginner players.
Players that utilize this build are likely to have limited access to modifications and must make due with what they have.
Also, since they don’t have a lot of forma, if any at all, they’ll have to continue with this configuration until they can purchase them.
MK1-Strun Build Status (4 Forma)
This build is intended for tenno who are no longer novices but are still new to the game; it needs raw damage from the multi-shot and vigilante weapons while still exploiting the weapon’s status chance.
Heat is vital because it helps lower the target’s armour, which is where the MK1-Strun suffers. Shell Shock and Toxic Barrage can be swapped out for other status modifications, while heat is crucial because it helps reduce the target’s armour, which is where the MK1-Strun struggles.
End-of-Game MK1-Strun Build (5 Forma)
This is your normal Strun late game status construct. It costs 5 forma and is pretty costly in terms of endo, but it is worth it in the end since you get a multi shot of 39 pellets each shot, each of which can either proc viral or heat on the adversary.
MK1-Strun Crit build for the mid-range (2 Forma)
Despite what I previously said about the MK1-Strun not being a crit weapon, it can be made to function. This is still a beginner-friendly build, but it will consistently crit.
The vigilante set helps with this because when you have all of the weapons in the set, they have an extra passive that increases your main weapon’s critical chance by 5%. With four of these modifications, this increases to 20%, giving your weapon a total of 40%.
MK1-Strun Crit Endgame Build (6 Forma)
This is an end-game variation of the Strun’s normal crit build.
It is suggested that you use a Warframe such as Harrow or Rhino to increase your damage, critical chance, or fire rate.
