wow Kepesk, great info! I've normally used khora on nightwaves were no-score from the other team is required, but it's a helminth build, and there's an issue with points sometimes not being able to picked up because of being too close to a wall (indoor arena). I'm not to have give your method a shot - thanks for the info!

Personally, I use Vauban for CC, his tether ball will immobilize them completely, build for range duration but range is the more important one here. Each ball can only tether 2 enemies each and only 4 tethers out at once. Works best with the outdoor map which you can always get if you queue the index from a clan dojo, but it works for either map. For the outdoor map, place the balls a little in front of the pillar at the start but also a little out to the sides, with around 40m of range, it will lock the whole visible area down, for the indoor one I normally put one in the archways to the goal and one on the sides a bit higher up on the other three sides of the goal box. I've done both and managed to do 3 rounds easy with no enemy scores several times so it seems a pretty safe method. Hope it helps.

Thanks for the suggestions! I will have to look into them.

Or just use Titania and solo it

Nezha and Revenant are leagues above Rhino and anybody can craft Nezha as soon as they join a clan. I farm Index solo, setup: Nezha or Rev (Rev is better coz you can choose when to refresh mesmer skin), Dead Eye and a Rubico. Its quick and you dont need anybody else, you'll one shot everyone until towards the end of the 2nd round. Of course its faster with more ppl, but not everyone can afford to run groups all the time. Titania is also a beast at Index, but Ill rather have a Rubico for the one shot kills.

Smar! The issues I've seen with some Limbo', is limited attention span. Goalies have to be able to focus even when the job itself isn't pew-pew, and that seems to be the biggest issue, since the timers on 4 and 2 don't perfectly line up, some though and attention need to be present at all times imo. I should have mentioned, as a built team your presented strat is a sound one, and it's well written.

I changed the title to "An index credit farming strategy," so it makes it sound less like a comprehensive guide and more so one way of doing the index quickly.

As for requirement of built team, I assumed players would be making groups among friends, clanmates, or gathering people in recruit channel. Just have to host and ask for specific warframes and give directions. Though this might require some saviness on the host's part to delegate correctly. I personally haven't had too much trouble setting this team up in recruit channel.

And yea this guide doesn't address public index. I could probably write something about it.

There are definitely a lot of different strategies for index. That's why I put in the 2nd section that people can contribute. As for limbo, he's definitely not required, but I also wrote that in other team compositions that warframes are interchangable.

As for skilled limbo, I'm not sure what skill is necessary. You literally cast 4 and then 2 at the spawn point, which prevents any enemies from scoring. I even way pointed where to cast the cataclysm. All limbo does in this setup, is wait until cataclysm runs out and recast. And again he's not even required but it makes the games more chill since the team can safely chill in the cataclysm. And I also show proof in the screen shots good times.

Pick a better option than limbo - or better - STRESS that you need a skilled limbo player. I've seen way to many low skill limbo' in index that contribute nothing and aren't even good goalies. The real issue is that this calls for a built team, and it NEEDS to be stressed that it requires a built team. You can't just pop into a public and expect that because you're using one of these builds it's going to go well. If you're going to play on public, you need to be able to SOLO index, because you will teams you have to carry. Additionally - if playing on public, it is fat better to complete 1 round and hit it again in terms of time to profit, I can solo 2 rounds faster than i can do them with a public team (in general), specters die and get your additional points, players try to stay alive, even when they aren't able to make kills, won't deposite picked up points, and just create a liability hanging out at the enemy goal ninja point grabbing.
