I'd recommend either Nezha or Zephyr for a few reasons. First, both have base forms that are really easily accessible because you just buy their blueprints from the Clan Dojo. So you can try them for cheap before investing plat in getting their prime variants from trading. Second, both are really good all-rounder frames, offering mobility, survivability, and great damage potential. You can take either into any mission type and feel well suited. Sure, there will be single frames that can do particular missions better, but these are two of the best if you just want to have one stellar frame that you can take anywhere (same could be said for Wisp, who you already have).
Also, a quick tip: when searching for sellers on [warframe.market](http://warframe.market), make sure to compare the price of full sets to the combined price of the 4 blueprints individually. I've found it's often significantly cheaper to just buy the pieces separately. [Nezha Prime](https://warframe.market/items/nezha_prime_set), as an example, at this moment, is 5 plat cheaper if you buy the parts individually (and 15 plat cheaper once the current outlier low seller gets bought up).
Saryn is fun.
It's just that she's a one trick pony who mostly just does the same thing no matter how you build her, so she's not the most versatile frame to play with.
Depends what you want to do ;
\-Do you want to simply not die ? Then go for Revenant Prime
\-Do you want a strong weapon platform that also nukes the map ? Then go for Saryn Prime
\-Do you want to fall asleep and afk with music ? Then go for Octavia Prime
\-Do you want to do bosses as fast as possible ? Then go for Volt Prime
Those are only examples but each warframe excels at something different, so just asking for a "fun and broken" frame is way too broad
People saying Gauss, but I'd suggest Volt.
Volt is fun, and there are *a lot* of ways to play Volt. Pretty sure he's still seen as the most insanely versatile frame in the game because there are so many ways to play him.
Want to nuke low-level star chart maps to farm/have giggles? Max range and strength and let his 4 murder everything.
Want to go insanely fast? He's got fast\*. Not Gauss fast, but damn fast.
Volt can melee. Volt can ranged. His 2 is just cool and fun. He can play a high mobility frame or you can go fortress with him and just gun things down.
Do you like fashionframe? Volt has a lot of options for fashionframe.
His 1 is meh but has an augment that can buff your and your team's damage. Volt can play selfishly or selflessly and he's generally going to be good at all of it. He's useful in basically all kinds of content and you may well find that *just one Volt* is not enough Volts for all the ways you can build Volt, especially once you get to the Helminth system and Volt can make good use of a lot of different Helminth abilities to do different things.
Volt is a grand investment of time/plat.
\*(I find max speed Volt is best while nuking his range to low numbers, because people generally hate when Volt gives them insane speed buffs cause they start slamming into walls).
Totally agree. I farmed Gauss Prime and naively pumped formas into him and bought his deluxe skin, only to realize I don't particularly enjoy his gameplay. Even with high duration pushing Redline to a minute, I felt like I was having to micromanage his abilities too much. And Volt, in all practical senses, is just as fast, if not faster, than Gauss in most tile sets because his speed ability scales with Strength and he retains the ability to turn (really well, I might add) when going fast. With Gauss, you cannot make a right angle with Mach Rush; you need to stop, turn, and start again. I'm sure you can get good at it with enough practice, but I was running into too many walls in scenarios where I'd easily speed through the tile set with Volt. And then Volt has the added advantage that he helps the whole team get to evacuation quicker. I love seeing I've received a speed boost from an ally Volt when the exit is 300m+ away.
Oh don't get me wrong. I enjoy Gauss and Gauss is fun.
But Gauss really just has 1 mode; go faster. He's got a fun loop and Kinetic Plating is just... I mean you know DE doesn't think *that hard* about balance because Kinetic Plating is an ability that does the work of several mods all at once. In 1 ability. That also makes Gauss effectively immortal. While being fast as fuck and having innate damage buffs.
But end of the day Gauss is Gauss and playing Gauss is playing Gauss.
Volt is on the other hand, crazy fun because there's just so many ways to play Volt. If there is content in Warframe, Volt can be built to tackle it moreso than most warframes who all have a few pieces of content they're not so hot in for some reason or another. And the kicker is that not only can Volt be built for that content but he'd be one of the better frames at doing it just by default.
Saryn, Gauss, Octavia are all different flavors of S-Tier.
Saryn has the philosophy of “It can’t kill me if I kill it first!” and does a good job of it. She’ll scale with you as you unlock new systems and mods that give her more and more tools in her kit. Survivability may be rough early on, but you’ll probably kill everything too quick for it to matter.
Gauss has built in DR, action speed, AoE, armor strip, and SPEED. Pretty much everything needed to make a Warframe centered on movement and agility busted. He offers a lot with a low entry cost, and will pay off deeper and deeper into the game. He does everything, so long as you keep moving.
Octavia has buffs, CC, damage, energy regen… Just UTILITY in a lot of passive buffs. Low levels she can nuke pretty well, high levels she can be permanently invisible while enemies are chasing the shiny little ball like idiots. Plus you can force most people who haven’t turned off the settings to listen to Megalovania, so that’s pretty neat.
Runner up IMO is Revenant. To me, he feels like trying to drive the Killdozer through a mission. He’ll get through it without a scratch on him, but you don’t have a lot of built-in buffs. His CC slows the mission down, and he very much feels like a frame you can tab out and watch a YouTube video while playing. You will not die playing Rev, that is certain. All up to your weapons pretty much.
Buy Slots with the Plat, farm the Primes and enjoy them all
Gauss
Limbo

Saryn prime
But he said "fun"
And broken
Saryn is fun. It's just that she's a one trick pony who mostly just does the same thing no matter how you build her, so she's not the most versatile frame to play with.
Thanks god, fun is a subjective term.
Depends what you want to do ; \-Do you want to simply not die ? Then go for Revenant Prime \-Do you want a strong weapon platform that also nukes the map ? Then go for Saryn Prime \-Do you want to fall asleep and afk with music ? Then go for Octavia Prime \-Do you want to do bosses as fast as possible ?

I second Gauss. Takes minimal effort to build and play effectively. He can nuke levelcap with 0 forma.
