I've been experimenting with a Void Dash setup for Tridolons for the last few weeks, and have reached a point where a solo 4x3 is casual and 5x3 is starting to feel plausible.

Although this setup is great for speedrunning, it's also useful for casual runs and newer players, since you don't need an amp at all, and good frame / weapon setups merely speed things up from an already decent base time. All you need is a rank 0 Magus Revert and Magus Lockdown; maxed Lockdown speeds things up by a few seconds.

On the speedrun side, my current best in-game-time run with Trinity is 10min 56secs, which is over a minute faster than the current speedrun.com world record, and there are still many places to shave time off.

Build

Build explained:

With Magus Revert giving you infinite energy, a 0-distance Void Dash can be spammed as fast as your FPS allows by targeting your feet and using a hyperscroll mousewheel or a macro for jumping (autofire macros are allowed). Adding Madurai's Meteoric Dash to that rips Eidolon shields in a few seconds, no amp or Volt shenanigans required. Magus Lockdown only works for the capture phase, but turns that into a near-instant cap. The downside of Lockdown is that it also tanks your FPS and can't be turned off, so it slightly slows down the shield phase. The FPS-hit is much larger in a team, so I wouldn't recommend using Lockdown with randoms.

Lockdown can't hit Synovias, so those still need to be dealt with using Rubico Prime/Lanka/Catchmoon/Tombfinger/whatever. Since we're Madurai and constantly in void mode without having to shoot, Trinity can reach very nice damage with Rubico Prime + Void Strike + Vigorous Swap. I run Prisma Shade for an occasional Ambush. Adarza Kavat also works, but having to resurrect pets gets annoying, nor do I feel like constantly swapping between Adarza and Smeeta. Chroma/Rhino/Volt would still technically be slightly faster than Trinity, but with most damage-downsides mitigated, and the fact that Trinity can go pick up more lures whenever during energy spikes, the run is easier to manage with Trin.

Hey Tenno! Using/abusing a macro to void dash crazy amounts of times which otherwise wouldn't humanly be possible are not condoned. We will be looking into Magus Revert.
