Warframehas plenty of characters to meet, planets to visit, and missions to complete, but to uncover more mysteries in the Sol System, you’ll need an arsenal that can handle that. For that very reason, you will be able to craft and master a lot of different firearms, swords, and even bows.
One of the best bows in the game is the Daikyu, a weapon that can work perfectly as a solitary tool by sniping enemies with ease, but also possesses a special synergy with the Nikana sword family thanks to a certain Amalgam mod. Here’s all you need to know about it.

Plus x1.3/1.55 Damage to the Faction of your choice.
This build aims to take care of two things: first, the Daikyu potential as a solo weapon, and then, Daikyu as part of a larger arsenal.The Amalgam Daikyu Target Acquired mod lets you steal HP with every single attack from your Nikana,which improves your survivability quite significantly, and the fact that it only takes one slot away doesn’t lower your chances of making this bow work by itself.
For that very reason, we’re going to aim toimprove its Critical Chance percentage and the Critical Damage Multiplier,which is why Hammer Shot, Critical Delay, Vital Sense, and Vile Acceleration are here.
To deal with the negative dip on Damage that Vile Acceleration brings,you will use Primary Merciless as the Arcane, and then Amalgam Serration and any Bane mod to improve your offensive capabilities even more.Overall, a well-rounded build that will allow you to hit critical attacks constantly while also letting you survive in higher levels.
