I’m looking for advice on which arcanes work best for Rhino. I typically use Grace and Blessing on most of my frames, but that doesn’t really apply to Rhino since he’s pretty much covered in Iron Skin all the time. I’ve been considering the Molt Augment for power strength, but I want to know what other options are great for boosting his Roar and Iron Skin capabilities.

I run Rhino with Parasitic Armor subsumed over his 4th and I find that Arcane Battery is super helpful—it frees me from worrying about energy efficiency. Plus, since Iron Skin scales with armor and damage taken, Parasitic Armor works perfectly with this approach.
Arcane Battery seems like a no-brainer. I also use Health Conversion for that awesome free 1350 armor, which really benefits from the battery.
I remember back when you’d go for a tanky Rhino with an archgun, just charging through enemies while your Iron Skin stacked up to crazy levels. Those were the days!
Molt Augmented and Arcane Battery are a must! You can swap them in to replace Primed Flow if you’re looking to optimize your setup.
I run Molt Reconstruct on my Nourish Rhino. With the energy regen from Nourish plus Energy Nexus, I can spam my abilities more at 45% efficiency. Reconstruct makes him a lifesaver in tough situations, healing up to 930 on Rhino Stomp. I also recommend considering Combat Discipline and Arcane Avenger for a nice boost to your DPS while taking damage.
Rhino thrives on strength, so Molt Augmented is definitely a solid choice. After that, it really depends on your setup. I personally go for Arcane Battery along with Umbral mods to ramp up my strength and gain extra armor, which helps with the battery.
