At least with Hek you can get key fragments passively. People are gonna be doing Ceres missions anyway, so six months down the line a bunch of people are gonna have a key without trying. With this alad scheme only the people who are actively trying to get coordinates are gonna get them, and trying to grind up Mesa once the next big update hits is gonna be even worse than it is now.

Up until I want to say Update 13 or so they weren't named any differently than regular cores, and the only difference is that you can't trade them. Interesting. I don't remember that at all, but I was around back then. Sucks getting old, I guess!

Why they didn't go with the far more friendly and sensible route of having the new units drop the new nav coords I'll never know.

So people will buy her outright instead of dealing with the grind. Khorne posted:I want to farm vay hek, and no one is doing missions that let me make keys. I definitely agree with what you said. With how much the key costs I didn't realize it was consumable. They should just make it not consumable after people lose interest. Kiste is your best option. Sometimes there will be a few people running it, but you'll likely have to farm the endless missions for the other fragments on your own. :/ Brainbread fucked around with this message at 19:58 on Nov 30, 2014 |

Kyte posted:It may not be but literally who cares unless you're at the Balance is important at all levels of play.  hagie posted:Ok wtf happened? There's syndicate rep grind now, with actually useful rewards in many cases. There's also a bunch of mods that change how certain powers work(gated behind syndicates) and syndicate weapons as well. Plus the requisite new guns that are mostly complete poo poo(gammacore i'm looking at you) but one or two that are neat enough. There's also a new frame and new Infested that are just as irritating as we figured they would be during the devstreams that announced them, but not so powerful that Infested aren't still the easiest faction to murder endlessly. They do at least make it less monotonous. The new frame is pretty boring though so don't feel like you have to be a dick to get her.

Limbo, the male frame, is actually pretty okay in his niche once you get him maxed out. His niche is basically being pre-nerf Frost in that he has one skill that means anything and is most useful on Defense to make the pod pretty much invulnerable.

Limbo is acctually really usfull for Rescue when you build him for duration since he can but the target into limbo and make it ignore all damage. I also like using him for Capture but I guess you could use a Loki for that.

Pierson posted:edit; Also what's this I hear about a Speed Nova build? The last time I played her was pre the changes to MPrime. Nova's Molecular Prime's slow is affected by her power strength. Increasing it increases the slow; decreasing it makes enemies go faster. With corrupt mods, you can lower the strength below 0 (and increase the duration, making it huge) to get all the enemies on the map to run really fast into whatever meatgrinder you have set up for them, making infested defenses go through waves really quickly. Or you can use it to troll people.

Pierson posted:That's loving incredible and I have to try it on Kiste. It's so great on Kiste. I've pulled nearly 400k total affinity from a single Kiste run using a speednova. Remember to jack your power duration as high as possible. The goal is to time it so that your Prime rolls over the spawn points as the enemies are spawning, letting them turborun all the way into your murderteam in as little time as possible. And as a bonus they still take double damage.

Archwing stuff: Is it worth doing versus normal missions? I'm thinking I might just wait it out until it gets less buggy before doing anything with it.

I apologize if this has been asked like 20+ times here, but I'm completely out of luck in terms of doing my own testing and homework. Does anyone know a decent way of farming Argon Crystals for a shy solo player like me? I don't think I have good enough stuff to really solo T4 anything and trying to solo basic void stuff has gotten me 1 argon in the last 24 hours. I'm pretty desperate for any kinda luck here.

Dont solo. Just yell 'Doing t1 void poo poo' and people will jump in. Jump in when people yell 'doing void towers' too. Never stop grinding.

A tip from pros: When the Gurstrag Three appear to kick your poo poo in, it's considered Very Bad Manner to intentionally disconnect and leave the rest of your squad to get hosed without warning.

In other news, the Stalker's new "lock all doors" feature can get you in some really close quarters combat with him, so try to stick to the big halls until he spawns.Coach Sport posted:Archwing stuff: Is it worth doing versus normal missions? I'm thinking I might just wait it out until it gets less buggy before doing anything with it. Personally I find it more fun than the base game, and I haven't really had any bug issues, but apparently I'm not the majority. Reward-wise it only gives more archwing stuff, plus resources and syndicate rep so your call there.

It would be really nice to have some way of dealing with it on allies, considering the range it spreads at and how it can instantly reinfect. Or, you know, an immunity or resistance duration after you get rid of it.

Also would be nice if Ember and Zephyr powers would get rid of bees. Ember powers should even get rid of floor goop. Gives Ember an edge she sorely needs in *something*.
