Underframe
A free web-based Warframe build creator and deep DPS/damage-simulation calculator with an auto-build optimizer and Riven tooling.
Überblick
Underframe (underframe.site) is a browser-based build and theorycrafting tool for Warframe. It lets players assemble builds for Warframes, weapons and companions, then runs a combat/DPS simulation against customizable target dummies (faction, level scaling, headshot/weakpoint multipliers, status effects) rather than relying on simple stat totals. Beyond manual building it offers an auto-build optimizer with tunable scoring, Riven creation and auto-rolling, an AoE layout editor, mod import from images, and shareable snapshot links. It is free, requires no account, and stores data locally in the browser; feedback and build submissions are handled through a Discord community.
Am besten für: Theorycrafters and min-maxers who want a deeper, simulation-based DPS calculator and auto-optimizer than a basic build sharer offers.
Wichtige Funktionen
- DPS/damage combat simulation against customizable target dummies (faction, scaling, headshots, status)
- Auto-build optimizer with adjustable scoring toggles and settings profiles
- Riven mod creation and auto-rolling
- AoE layout editor for area-of-effect weapon testing
- Mod import from images and manual mod/polarity/arcane management
- Partner/buff linking so a linked Warframe's buffs apply to weapon builds
- Build sharing via snapshot links (with link minification) and import/export
- Curated featured/expert-vetted builds (e.g. Mag, Mirage, Wisp)
Vor- und Nachteile
- Free, no account/login, and no install — runs entirely in the browser
- Simulation-based DPS calculation (target dummies, scaling, headshots, status) is deeper than simple stat-total builders
- Auto-build optimizer and Riven auto-rolling speed up min-maxing
- Rich extras: AoE layout editor, mod-from-image import, partner buff linking, snapshot sharing
- Includes curated/expert-vetted featured builds as starting points
- Very small public footprint — little independent discussion, reviews, or adoption evidence
- Feature depth can mean a steeper learning curve than lightweight build sharers
- Community/support funnels through Discord rather than open forums, so peer feedback is less discoverable
- Solo/small-team project with limited transparency about maintenance and update cadence
- Overshadowed by more established build sites (Overframe, Reframed) for build discovery/sharing
Stimmung der Community
There is very little public third-party discussion of Underframe. The tool itself is real, functional and notably feature-deep (its combat simulation and auto-build go beyond simple stat-sheet builders like Overframe), but it has a small footprint compared with established sites. No Reddit threads, store ratings, or review pages surfaced; the only external content found was a single creator YouTube showcase, with community activity centered on its Discord.
