The first loot frame, the necromancer, nr.1 source of confusion for new players as to why that enemy I’m shooting is not dying - Nekros!

Release date: 2013-09-13

Passive: A master of death, Nekros regenerates 5 points of Health any time an enemy dies within 10 meters of him. His passive can also heal Companions.
Soul Punch - A blow so powerful, it turns the enemy’s very soul into a deadly projectile, damaging all in its path.
Terrify - Casts fear into the hearts of nearby enemies, causing them to run away in terror.
Desecrate - Forces fallen enemies around you to drop additional loot.
Shadows of the Dead - Summons shadow versions of vanquished enemies to fight alongside you for a short period of time.

Acquisition: Main blueprint can be purchased from the Market. Nekros’ component blueprints can be obtained from defeating Lephantis on Magnacidium, Deimos.

    Along with Saryn, Nekros is probably the most influential “tool” warframe for my early game self. While Saryn blessed me with Zenurik, Nekros blessed me with extra rare resources (like Tellurium) making many grinds far less painful. He has been retired for a while due to Khora doing his job better, but his contributions shall be forever remembered. If I do bring him out nowadays, it’s usually with a Shield of Shadows build. I wish his undead army was capable of more than just being distractions and extra HP for him, would be cool to have an actual minion frame that can support their minions and use them as their main firepower.

      Can you link a build for Khora that accomplishes this? I haven’t played in a couple years and I need to update my farming methods.

        This is what I use on my Khora. You don’t have to go for shield gating for the majority of content, but with how spammy Khora is, it just works very well on her. 2nd Arcane to taste, Energize is kinda required (good thing it’s very easy to get right now!) but if you don’t have it, just fit in some efficiency and drop the shieldgating for your traditional HP tanking. Pull is here to help get stragglers into the Strangledome for extra looting, only useful on really big maps. This is a Steel Path tier build, so for normal content the only thing you really need is a bunch of range, comfortable duration and the 2 augments.

      What’s even more fun is if you can get a khora and a nekros together. Then desacrate can affect the enemies khora has already killed
