troublegum posted:So, after running some random nightmare mode for the hell of it, I find myself with a couple of spare Lethal Torrents. Which I understand is a somewhat rare and sought after thing that pubbies can be persuaded to buy for I bought mine for 10plat and didn't price check with goons beforehand because I remembered not grinding for it in the event and thought 10plat was fair. Seller says fair, buyer says fair, free market, etc. That is to say, market price is single-digit, but it could easily be sold for higher and if you can get more, do it. No one loses.

What the gently caress. I played on the PS4 last night and logged off just same as always. Log in to my PS4 just now and Warframe isn't anywhere to be found. Everything else is there just fine but not Warframe. I think the fucker deleted itself. I better not have lost my account too, I spent a decent amount of plat on that account.

ullerrm posted:LTs are actually tied for the most common drop from NM, at a hair under 10% chance. Single digit plat, I'm guessing. Definitely got a couple of those lying around. Time to shoot more Grineer mans in NM, looks like. zgrowler2 posted:I bought mine for 10plat and didn't price check with goons beforehand because I remembered not grinding for it in the event and thought 10plat was fair. Seller says fair, buyer says fair, free market, etc. Welp, so much for my dreams of getting spacerich off of Lethal Torrent. Still, Warframe's trading 'system' is sufficiently opaque that someone, somewhere will pay an excessive price for it. Otherwise, back to pouring cores into the pile of Serrations I have, I guess.

hexic posted:The Karak doesn't require a mastery rank so you can build that any time you want and it's a pretty solid weapon. If you're already mastery rank 2, you can also build the Boltor. Both are pretty solid rifles and I used my Boltor up until I could build a Soma with no problems. Make sure to get a spare Serration mod from someone in the clan though. I finished up my Karak, the 24 hour build time was painful. It's funny how a unmodded Karak feels about 3 times as strong as my level 30 MK1-Braton.

Decided to jump into this again, holy balls it was updated like mad.  Currently got a Gritaka in the oven, guess I'll keep leveling my Trinity in the meantime, send a clan request as well. Looking forward to adventuring with goons. Any suggestions on a melee weapon? I asked my friend who still plays and he said the Cronus is barely an upgrade to the starter one so I shouldn't bother.

Melee is just character decoration in the current balance. Orthos should still be one of the better melee weapons but only use charged attacks, if you are rank 6 Dual Ichor has a lot going for it when highly modded.

Speaking of melee weapons, is there a known bug where killing things with melee weapons don't count as melee kills? I have noticed on the results screen when I have done entire infest missions with melee only and get 90ish kills I get only 10-15 melee kills counted.

Man, this game... I've been playing for about 2 weeks now, and I'm addicted. I started with a Mag, and I have to say that is the only "real" choice for a newbie. Pull by itself is incredible, and Polarize Shield is excellent for keeping you alive through the tougher stuff. I can also swear by the Bronco (soon to be double Broncos), all around excellent weapon. I just finished cooking a Rhino, and I should have a Drakgoon tonight. Assuming I can pull together a decent stable of mods for the shotgun type, at what point can I be viable in Orokin Derelict/Orokin Void missions? There are a bunch of things I need/want from there (Forma/Catalyst blueprints), and my one attempt to solo a T1 Mobile Defense was incredibly hard, though successful. I see LVL x-y on all of these mission nodes, but I really don't know how to translate that to expected Damage/Durability of mobs. At what point could I handle a Nightmare (lvl 48) node, for instance? FYI, I'm in the clan, but my last attempt to get mumble working again ended in failure. I'll probably try a reinstall with another version tonight.

Orokin Derelict is around mid-tier, with the exception of Survival which obviously can go as high as you can stand to keep going. You'll want probably at least one 'great' (lvl30, modded and potatoed) weapon to survive there as well as a frame with at minimum some decent shields and armour (or a Rhino, hah!). Void 1 is easy enough and like you say can be done almost immediately and solo'd by anything. Void 2 you want to be around the same as Derelicts. Void 3 you want great gear and either a full team or top-tier gear, modded to gently caress and probably min-maxed if you want to go alone.

Mag is amazing, and Loki is only slightly less amazing because he needs better gear than the starting stuff to really get into his game (i.e. Orthos Prime doing 12k hits while invisible.) But hey, on Excalibore you can jump 3x as high!

Seconding this. Leave Excal alone until rank 6 when you can do orbital strikes with Ogris unless you want/need to convert 75 plat + time into 6K mastery points. Average at best and no reason to pick him over Mag.

At least I've got a Boltor now, plus jumping up and down on people smashing Amphis on their head hasn't lost it's appeal yet.  I didn't realize how grind-tastic and freakin' expensive Warframe's market was when I started. I'm pretty sure my thought process at the time was, 'This looks like the scrub frame, I'll get some practice then switch to something else.'  At least I was right in one way I guess.

How come when I hit a helmet nerd with this awesome flourishy melee technique, that was probably passed down through generations of Tenno martial arts masters, he doesn't even flinch, but when a helmet nerd kabonks me with his jellyfish launcher I go staggering for 12 minutes.

Because DE loves their stunlocks and excessively long animations. It would be a lot more tolerable if you could get up to 100% knockdown resistance with good mods. But I think the max is like 80%, which gives you a 20% chance of getting killed without being able to do anything since it eventually gets to the point where enemies can kill you in the two secs it takes to get back up. In other words, Warframe allows you to go fast, but that just makes me frustrated at how long the fall-roll, climb-over-railing, stand-back-up animations are. Everything should go fast, damnit.

Stuns, knockdowns and bleed procs are probably the vast majority of the reason I die in this game. "Hey guys let's play some Phobos!" *Gets shot twice by Eviscerator, dies to bleed* It's worse if you've been playing Rhino for so long that you're used to ignoring it all and you switch to another class to level it only to get wrecked super hard.

That sounds nice... but how do I go about getting a potato for that awesome weapon? I was under the impression that Void/Derelict are the only places those blueprints drop. I'm waiting on at least a 50% discount before I bite on IAP. Also, I've seen in Invasions that Mutagen Mass and Fieldron can be obtained as rewards. Can this happen with a Detonator Injector? (or whatever the Clan crafted Grineer thing is)

But for now you only ever need 7 Detonite Injectors. 2 for the Ignis and 5 for the Ogris, it's not like the 20ish you need for the others to build everything. Also, I'm less impressed with Forma blueprints as rewards now that I have 16, with 3 built already. Just give me the goddamned Reaper Prime Blade, game.

The alerts come whenever is most inconvenient for you, the invasions usually go quick, since the more people completing them the faster it goes. Thankfully, they're otherwise only 20 plat and if you get a decent coupon, worth the investment to make some weapons fun and usable.

I have spent a ton of plat so far, almost all of it has been for quality of life stuff like reactors/catalysts, formas, and affinity boosters. Also did a bit of trading for mods and keys I wanted. Rushing stuff is handy when you know you're running a bunch of stuff, too. This weekend I picked up a Credit Booster and made 1.3 million credits just running keys. Tower 3 keys net you 50k, which is a nice consolation prize when you get your 7th Boar Prime Stock. I'm basically the ideal pay to play sucker (even though I'm using mostly promo plat, I need real plat for trading), is what I'm getting at. If the next Prime Access is something like a Nyx Prime and a Vectis Prime I'll probably buy it.

I bought split chamber on the open market, because I wasn't going to sit around and grind for it. It's made the game significantly more enjoyable and now I have a strong desire to start throwing formas on all my favorite weapons.
