How to get Gauss Prime in Warframe: Relics, stats, mod build, and more

Alongside Volt, Gauss is the only Warframe to take on the role of a speedster directly. Originally released in 2019, Gauss is unmistakably one of the speediest Warframes out there. However, his supersonic talents have a lot of competition from alternatives like Wukong's Cloud Walker and Titania's flying movement.

Nevertheless, other frames with a penchant for mobility do not share the sheer versatility Gauss offers. Besides a sprint that turbo-charges his speed, Gauss' kit grants him immunity from all physical damage sources and knockdowns, an area-wide nuke that can also armor strip, and a gun buff. Together, these make him well-equipped to deal with virtually every mission type available in the game.

The only bad thing about Gauss is the Disruption grind needed to obtain his components - something that is no longer a drawback with the release of Gauss Prime. Like all Primed gear, his components can be farmed from Void Relics.

Build guide

Being a self-sufficient Warframe, Gauss Prime only needs some extra ability strength to improve the Redline buffs to your weapon. The main idea is to not go negative on either ability range or duration. Greater duration adds quality of life; removing ability range neuters Gauss' crowd-controlling capabilities.

If you want to rely on shield-gating for a more active avenue of survivability, you may consider replacing Quick Thinking with Primed Redirection or Fast Deflection. Alternately, for missions with a higher possibility of Toxin procs and other elemental Hazards, Rolling Guard can be a good option to dispel status effects.

Helminth options

Gauss's claim to being one of the best frames ever made stems from the necessity of all his abilities. Frames often tend to have one or two abilities that are not of critical importance to pull off their core combo. Gauss does not have this proverbial Helminth slot and arguably does not even need it.

In specific cases, however, you may consider using Silence, Energize Munitions, or a gun buff like Roar, Eclipse, or Nourish. In these fringe cases, the best slot to swap in the Helminth ability is Thermal Sunder.
