IT'S ME, BURROWS!

IT WAS ME ALL ALONG, BURROWS!

Sandweed posted:

My favorite part of this thread is the range of posters, you can have Denzine posting his 6 Forma Penta build and why it's essential to have a 4 Formaed Vauban to go with it, and the next post under him is a new player asking why a jerk called stalker came into his mission and murdered him.
I'm pretty sure I'm at the point where half my Warframe stories follow a "One time, Denzine did a thing" format.

One of the comments is joking about Loki Prime switch-teleporting in at the end.
A double Prime update would be amazing.

With the way Rhino looks, I always figured that DE's artists really didn't know what the hell they wanted to do with him, other than 'make it big'. The Rhino Immortal skin further cements this suspicion. Now I see that they studiously avoid showing anything but the most extreme closeups in the video, so I'm expecting something pretty lackluster.

But I'll still grind it out anyway, and forma out the loving V polarity they'll no doubt put on it, because Rhino is my favorite. I play other frames because I get bored with playing Rhino so much, but he's still the best. :unsmith:

How long ago was that? There was a while when he was the best frame in the game. And then there was a short bit where he was really lousy. And then pretty soon after that there was a time when he was the best frame in the game again, which has continued to this day.

Update 12.3.0: The Grustrag Three

Zoc5ITJ.jpg

Additions:

Vem Tabook, Shik Tal and Leekter. Remember their names, Tenno. They may be coming for you!

Vay Hek has warned that any Tenno supporting the Corpus during invasions will face consequences; we now know what those consequences are. Riddled with mutation, violent tendencies and the urge to kill, these Grineer defects - otherwise known as The Grustrag Three - pose a high level threat. They have been detected in the Solar System and have been taking notice of Tenno support for Corpus during invasions. If it is the Brakk you seek, the Grustrag Three you must defeat.

Tenno Reinforcement:

- Marelok! Grineer Lever Action Secondary weapon! Find it in Clan Tech or the Market today.



- Forest Level expansion!

Cosmetic Additions:

- 4x Immortal Skins: Nekros, Valkyr, Oberon, and Ember!
- Twilight Colour Picker!

Other Additions:

- New Hyena information hooked up in Codex.
- New ambient sounds added to the Forest Levels!
- Level up effect now uses energy colour!

Changes:

- Adjusted Timing to show Castanas in hand sooner after reload is complete.
- Show “The Void”, “The Derelicts” and “Dojo” in the Star Chart if players have the required keys.
- Tweaked the depth cue on energy projectile's flares so they aren't so large in the distance (Detron Projectile feedback changes).
- Weapon and Mod conclave tweaks - increased the ratings on the Synapse, Heavy Caliber, and Toxin Damage mods.
- Revised name of Zoren Dagger Axe skin, so that we don't have duplicate names (Dagger Axe).
- Changed Frost’s Ability Sounds to align with new casting times.


Fixes:

- Fixed Burston Prime Blueprint not being tradeable.
- Fixed problem where players could get stuck in a state where they can’t roll or melee if they were not completely knocked down by an enemy.
- Fixed another instance of permanent end of mission black screen .
- Fixed remaining issues with Zephyr’s Turbulence letting most shots through.
- Fixed issue where Players can trade in progress Prime Blueprints which caused loss of resources.
- Fixed missing Japanese Characters (font) in game.
- Fixed issue where player attempts to fuse certain mods result in errors.
- Fixed issues with day/night fog on Earth.
- Fixed music not restarting after Stalker/Harvester appears.
- Fixed issues where Warframes that were Harvested while wearing Immortal skins weren’t showing proper FX in Aresenal.
- Fixed issue 9 from here, issues with mesh cuts in Forest: https://forums.warfr...-glitch-report/
- Fixed issue where Sniper Rifle enemies would rapid-fire when blind-firing.
- Fixed Ignis not using energy colour.
- Fixed Supra/Boltor not using energy colour.
- Fixed Amphis not using energy colour.
- Fixed issue where Capture target would get stuck on Earth missions.
- Fixed enemies throwing grenades while/after running instead of in proper Grenade throwing ways sequence.
- Fixed progression stopping issue if playing Earth’s Sabotage mission with Nightmare mode ‘timer’ permutation.

Nice haul. I wonder if this is DE's 'solution' to Grineer owning the star map - making counter-farming for Corpus invasions a sure thing by adding sweet loots to the one drop table in-game with Brakk. It's pretty good in the short-term, but I think they'll have some event later on to prop up a hard reset on the star map.

Ran the alert for the Phoenix helm and someone was Death Squad Marked...so we got to fight the Death Squad during a Survival. They're actually a fun trio of bosses.

So I just fought the Grineer Death Squad on a nightmare level. They have this little drone thing that covers you up if you get downed that stops you from bleeding out, but you can't shoot or move. If someone finishes the mission or you lose, then this happens.

Almost all of them do, at least among their non-robotic units (most Corpus enemy types are drones or MOAs).

Grineer: Lancers (as well as Commanders and Hellions) use the Grakata, Elite Lancers use the Hind, Eviscerators use the Miter, Troopers use the Sobek, Scorches use the Ignis, Heavy Gunners use the Gorgon, Seekers use the Kraken, Shield Lancers use the Viper, Scorpions use the Machete, Powerfists use the Furax, Ballista use the Vulkar, Butchers use Cleavers, and Bombards use an Ogris (albeit a homing variant).

Corpus: Crewmen use the Dera or Detron, Elite Crewmen use the Flux Rifle, Snipers use the Lanka, Prod Crewmen use the Prova, and Techs use the Supra.

It'd be nice to see more enemy types, though.

I was sure that Elite Lancers used the Burston, but I stand corrected.

But I was thinking about the last few we have gotten, like the Penta or the Cestra.

I wouldn't be surprised if we saw more show up in the future as more tilesets and enemies are introduced (and we still have a bunch of bosses due for a redesign), but given the shitload of current weapons plus the pace new weapons are introduced I think it's kind of inevitable that some stuff is just never gonna find a home on an enemy.

And while I haven't fought them since the last Darvo event, looking at the codex it looks the Hyenas have Pentas strapped to their backs.

No, Trinity can't. Also, some things can just randomly kill the hostage from full health. Or maybe the hostage instantly suffocates if their shields go down after you blow open the windows? Because my first try on that mission the hostage died while him and I were riding an elevator, because the pubbies thought it was a great idea to leave the hostage behind in a room that wasn't cleared out. So somehow they did something that killed the hostage while he was safe.

Usual issue with those rescue alerts is people forgetting to bring the hostage with them on the elevators.

So what's the exact process necessary to get the Grustrag Three to spawn, and where will they spawn after you've completed the requirement? Is it as simple as "do missions for Corpus" in contested systems and then they spawn on you in future grineer missions?

Assuming it's similar to the harvester you just need to do invasions against the grineer and try to avoid helping them until they show up pretty much.

It's the same as Zanuka, just help Corpus in invasions and Vay Hek will send you a message saying you've made a mistake. They'll come after you later, I got them the brakk bros sent after me like 3 invasion missions after I got the warning and it only took like 5 invasion missions to get that warning.

Lotus freaks out and tells you to not even fight and just get to extraction, it's a lot more elaborate than just Alad making some threats before the harvester gets to you.
