Hey everyone! I’m looking for some advice on a solid primary weapon for dealing damage to the Apex tank. I really want to earn the Eleanor accolade Glyph. Right now, here’s my loadout:
– Frame: Nyx (naturally)
– Primary: I’m not sure what to use since I haven’t acquired the Latron incarnon yet, so I can’t go for the slam loadout.
– Secondary: Lex Prime Incarnon
– Melee: Sarpa (for armor stripping)
What loadouts and builds are you guys using?

Honestly, forget using the Sarpa. Weapons like Magistar, Tenet Exec, or Sampotes designed for slam attacks will yield much better results. Plus, with the Isleweaver update coming soon, this is the best time to grind for those accolade glyphs!
Why are you concerned about armor stripping with Nyx? She can strip armor with her psychic bolts if you put even a little strength into her build! Although keep in mind that the Apex tank has immunity to all armor strips from abilities, so it’s a tough battle regardless.
If you can get your hands on the Latron incarnon, it’s fantastic for armor stripping off the tank! For the first phase, using something like the Furis incarnon can target the weak points effectively. For the last phase, I had great success with the Magistar incarnon—just remember to slam the tank when it’s vulnerable for some serious damage. Oh, and make sure to gear up for shields and I-frames, using the right mods like Rolling Guard and Vigilante Vigor will keep you alive.
Yeah, but remember, the Apex tank can silence you regularly. That’s why some players still prefer weapons that can strip armor manually.
