Hello Tenno!

I just got Mr 17 and unlocked Archon Hunts, but it is so hard for me that I got unmotivated and honestly have no idea what I should do next. As soon as I found a favorite gun (that would be Fulmin), I spent some plat to make a good build for it and after 7 forma I honestly was really happy with the result, it was helping me through a lot of content (except Profit Taker) and I was really enjoying it... Until I reached Archon hunts. The mobs in Archon hunts barely take damage from my Fulmin and also do a lot of damage to my frames to the point that right now is impossible for me to solo it, and I don't like being carried every week because it feels like I'm leeching. So please help me what should I do next? I'm on my way to unlock Steel Path but I got my ass kicked so hard I'm not even confident enough to tackle SP without being carried again.

Yeah, the levels on the Archon Hunt are comparable to Sedna or the Kuva Fortress in SP (130-150), but with respawns removed. The first planets of SP are only 100.

Primary arcane adapters cost 25 steel essence from Teshin, which is the exact amount of essence you get from doing the 5 daily steel path incursions. Put them on any gun you like, you can always farm more.

Yeah, I'm talking about the original Incarnon weapons from the Zariman, which are distinct from the new Incarnon Adapters you get from the Circuit. You can buy the blueprints from Cavelero with Zariman/Holdfast rep.

Rhino should generally be fine for an Archon hunt, you just need to get good at charging Iron Skin on enemy damage so that you're not constantly recasting (that is, don't cast it until you're in combat so you can build up a big buffer, rather than casting it before you get in combat).

Revenant plays similarly. Mesmer skin has a number of stacks, where any damage removes a stack and gives you a couple seconds of invulnerability. With about 15-20 stacks from a normal cast, that's ~30 seconds of invulnerability if you're constantly getting hit and usually more if you're moving around and dodging. Nezha is just Rhino but faster and more slippery.

Edit: Oh, liches/sisters. Yes, Tenet weapons are from Sisters of Parvos. I'd put them below steel path in terms of difficulty (enemy levels 60-100). Progression-wise, while you don't have to do it before archons, you'll definitely find it easier. Lots of good weapons in both pools.

Revenant's kit may look confusing, but just building for his 2 and your choice of helminth over his 4 are 90% of it.

Build as much strength as you can fit (including his 2 augment). Then add in whatever other stats you want (like duration if you put Roar on him). You don't need any defensive mods.

The "stack" nature of Revenant's 2 means that it scales indefinitely, vs Rhino skin which gets weaker and weaker as enemies get stronger.
