It'd be nice to know what I should be throwing my cores at For Valkyr you really don't need much more than some Duration mods, Vitality, Steel Fiber, and Rage (Rage is super important), and you might as well run Rush because you'll be doing a lot of running around. Basically, take hits to recharge energy, Hysteria when your health looks to be low or when your energy is full, repeat. Ideally I think you want Overextended because the smaller your Hysteria radius the less likely you are to take damage when it ends, and sure your Warcry will affect fewer people but you're probably generally using it as a self-buff anyhow.

Yes, but don't use the bow. Get literally any hitscan weapon instead. The Braton works nicely. It'll set you back 25k, but you can make that in a single void run. Just ask goons to take you there for some quick cash. Rank 1 has three rounds and you need to kill 10, 15 and then 20 dudes in 1,2,3 minutes respectively. Unless you're pro enough to headshot every dude under 6 seconds with a fully charged Paras MK1, I really recommend you upgrade. This game is pretty miserable when you're under rank 2. And then make a Karak as soon as you can because it's such a nice gun

Yeah, bow weapons (as well as Opticor) are annoying unless they have a ton of mods for stuff like fire rate and punchthrough.

iojeis Essential Guide to Farming Mesa Bits. By iojei. Step 1> Beg/Borrow/Steal/Farm?(Not encouraged) an already made Infested Alad V Key. Step 2> Recruiting Channel. Step 3> Look for "LF Alad V Keyshare" Key words here being "Alad V" and "Keyshare" Step 4> Once in a group, you will need to "prove your key" by going to Eris, and selecting the Muta Alad V Assassination mission. Once you do this and show everyone YOU can access it via YOUR KEY, decline it, clear vote. EVERYONE in the group needs to do this. Step 5> At some point during the "prove your key" make a funny about "hehe last to prove, first to use? xD:D8===D" Most likely they will agree. IF they do not agree, just go afk until they become impatient enough to choose some other honky to go first. Step 6> At the end of every successfull misson: You go afk. Popular choices are as follow, in no certain order. "I need to make a sandwhich" "GOTTA PISS" "My cat fell out my window" " "(<- do you get it? say nothing, you're afk you stupid gently caress!) CHECK-> DO I HAVE ALL THE PARTS TO MAKE MESA? Helmet, Chassis, Systems? IF NO-> REPEAT steps 1-6. If YES-> ignore all party members, and leave group. TIPS AND ADVICE: NEVER USE YOUR KEY FOR PUBBIES. Lurk "recruiting" channel for "LF keyshare" pubbies. Create your own group from this pool. So you will not run into any past marks. Save your key, to pass on to needy goons. Basically never use your key. Keys can be traded and sold (Sold for increasing amounts of Platnum.) Nav coordinates can be traded and sold (Sold for increasing amounts of Platinum.) Price of coordinates AND keys are dependent on how rare the infested alad v events are. First day there were 4, next day 3, 2, today 1(along with a Vauban alert. Are you getting the picture yet? They will be as rare and pain in the rear end as Vauban to farm.) It took me 17 pubbie keys to get all the Mesa parts. You do the math on that. That's a long time farming that poo poo yourself. gently caress pubbies ,make mesa, collect pubbie tears. flick3r fucked around with this message at 05:37 on Nov 30, 2014 |

Anyone figured out a way to make Mesa good? Her abilities all feel pretty lackluster. Her 4 feels fun, but unless the damage scales with something other than power damage mods I can't see it being good for much of anything. It looks awesome, and its fun to use, but when I'm on T1D and slotted with huge power mods and I can't kill heavy gunners without multiple shots it is pretty sad. Better to just bring the ol' Excalibur and one shot the entire wave while ignoring LOS.

He posted his IGN twice in that very post. Also, it's not just pubbies getting this treatment. Earlier, a goon who shall currently remain nameless went on three key runs and then wordlessly disappeared when it came time for his key. It's a really lovely way of handling keys, DE should have put in some kind of system for preventing this kind of crap. Having to work on the honor system doesn't really work in online games.

How's everyone going to have her when the nav coordinates are becoming increasingly rare, and the mesa systems requires 10-15 runs to get? Everyone can buy her with plat. Or farm 51 nav coordinates at less than 1 nav a day? That's 2 months at least if you finish her in 17 trys like I did. And if there's a nav every day.

Hi, I just started playing and have a couple questions not in the OP, if anyone can answer. - The difficulty scales with the number of players, right? I'm mostly playing with a friend for now. - If so, is there a bug that makes the game scale improperly sometimes? I ask because we did a 4 player event and then when we went back to 2 players and tried a mobile defense map it was pretty much impossible at our level with dozens of enemies EVERYWHERE. There was also 4 terminals, when I would've expected 2? And if there is, any way to resolve it without both of us quitting and relaunching the game? We tried that and it seemed to change the difficulty but we're not sure. - How long before I can expect to be able to make a different warframe? I unfortunately have the Excalibur from way back when I first tried the game and it's a little boring. I have the credits to buy most of the blueprints but have no idea what is hard to make, or what is fun.

Whether it's for goons or non-goons is irrelevant. It's an incredibly toxic strategy that so many people have adopted it's pretty much pointless to even bother with the recruiting channel. I mean fleecing pubbies of their plat is kinda shady too but at least that one's just preying on people's different senses of value rather than outright scamming. And btw this kind of "it's okay to screw them over if they're not part of my group" nonsense is the kind of exclusivist bullshit I expect from 4chan. Daynab posted:Hi, I just started playing and have a couple questions not in the OP, if anyone can answer. - IIRC more players means slightly more enemies, but it's still far easier with more people. - It's a bit randomized, and also depends on the mission difficulty and such. I think the number of terminals is also somewhat randomized. I haven't noticed anything weird, even if I go solo right after a 4-man mission. You did try the same mission for comparison, right? - The market BP is only the master BP. You need to kill bosses to get the component part BPs. To craft a frame you need to unlock Jupiter (to get Neural Sensors) and Saturn (to get Orokin Cells). Rhino is fairly easy to get, since his parts drop from the Venus boss. After that it takes about 4-6 days to cook your frame. (12 hours for each part (IIRC, they can be done in parallel) and 3 days for the frame itself) Other easy frames are Ember (drops from Saturn boss), Valkyr (drops from Jupiter boss) and Mag (Mars boss). FYI to unlock planets you gotta kill bosses now. The unlock chain goes like this:

Map layout can certainly have an effect on overall difficulty, though, just because of how the enemy spawn mechanics and AI pathing works (or occasionally, doesn't).

Good to know, thanks for the answers. Is there a way to queue for matchmaking when you're already in a party, then? When you're alone you can select a mission and wait to find a squad, but when I'm with my friend it just starts (and we got a late joiner only like once or twice.)

I think if you set the session as public it'll be open for matchmaking even if you already have somebody, but most of the time there's not enough people to actually join you. Join the goon clan, that'll get you plenty of people to play with.

I pretty much leveled Steel Meridian just for the Hek mod (that and none of the other weapon mods interested me). Now that they've got the Marelok too, I think it was a good choice. Now I can dream of a Steel Meridian Gorgon reload mod. On the topic of Keys, what bugs me more than anything is... all that work on the boss gets wasted. Like, when was the last time anyone did Vay Hek? He takes a *ton* of farming to get to, and since he's no longer the boss of the month, almost no-one is running him. He effectively doesn't exist for most people, now. What I would like for DE to do is, say, 6 months down the road, change the consumable keys to a reusable on, or just tone down the cost to something like 1/3rd of what it is. As it stands, if you want to do Vay Hek, you're gonna have to farm all of those keys yourself.
