That was my third Gammacor. Gave a friend one in exchange for Rakta Ballistica and Tetra mod set, and traded second Telos Akbolto for Vaykor Marelok. tbh with medallions Syndicate mods/weapons price are crashing.

e: Currently weapons are around 100~150p, and I'm expecting it will crash further as more people jump into Syndicate farming. Nobody wants to trade Syndicate stuff any more and almost everyone wants to sell for plat. It took me couple of hours until I finally found someone willing to trade.

I might have missed it but I didn't see it written on the wiki, if you're downed and the Telos Akbolto's proc it actually straight up revives you.

Hopefully there'll be some kind of rotation and it won't be one-off because 1000d is a hell of a lot of Prime parts at such short notice.

It's the same for the New Loka's Furis augment.

Also, to whoever was talking about the Detron, it does not in fact have damage fall off at all.

It doesn't look like an ice sculpture.... OR DOES IT??
If you aren't at the stage where you build stuff purely for mastery fodder, don't build a Kohm. Build any other weapon that uses cyrotic, argon, or oxium first. It's fun to shoot but saying it's ultra ammo inefficent is putting it very, very kindly. It's almost certainly going to get tweaks/buffs but who knows how long before they get around to it.

They were pretty quick about buffing the Gammacor, so if it's that horribly underpowered we may not actually have to wait long.

So what is the trigger for the last part of the Kubrow quest? It's an adult now and the wiki says i need to go to Earth and do a defense mission but it's not working (it says that the defense objective should be the Kubrow itself but it's still the warfream crypod)

There's actually a specific mission (should be Lith, on Earth), not just any old defense mission.

The VT stays for 48 hours, then fucks off for 2 weeks. I assume the inventory rotates, since there's other primed mods.

PSA: Get Mag's new mod.

With a max shield drain Shield Polarize build, the dome it creates will tank the damage from a squad of lvl 35 Corpus for several seconds. Against Zanuka it lasted throughout the entire fight while my kubrow solo'd it. Then I went out and stood in front of half a dozen lowbie Corpus without refreshing the dome and stood there for easily another 10 seconds until it broke. It doesn't block knockdowns and knockbacks, but it blocks bleed damage and the shield drain effect from the shield leeches. I'm not sure if it can block stuff like an Ancient's drain yet, but I'd imagine not.

The dome follows you around and doesn't expire on a timer. It's difficult to tell if refreshing it with Shield Polarize adds more health to the current amount or if it just replaces the dome. Either way, it's basically invulnerability against ranged. Things that manage to get inside the dome to melee you can actually hurt you though.

Using Shield Polarize without anything to drain around will still generate the dome, but its base health is pretty small. Probably in the neighborhood of 200 or so.

IT'S ME, BURROWS!

IT WAS ME ALL ALONG, BURROWS!
I was going to get my E I E I O on, get a ton of credits, probably go for extra prime parts, etc.
Instead I spent hours dicking around in the hubs.
Why would I do that?

Well, there are things to look at in the hubs:

Steel Meridian members who have rejected Vay Hek's "down with plants" rhetoric.

Darvo's Wet Floor sign.

Darvo himself.

Surprising Shrubberies!

Surely, these things that DE has prepared for us to look at are not worth hours and hours of looking?
Indeed. Thus, I was looking at things that DE did not intend for us to look at.






This sort of sneaking around involves going through culling planes, producing occasionally alarming effects

Such as ambulatory Iron Skins

And True Invisibility.

Now, you may have noticed something going on there.
And you have a question about it: Why in the bloody hell does that Loki have Iron Skin?
I assure you, that is the wrong question.

What you should be asking is: Why doesn't EVERY frame have Iron Skin?









Sadly, I am missing a couple of Primes to do this to.

Also, Iron-swapping between Rhinos can produce some... residual material.

For Continuity, at the very least its only about 250k to get it to give a bigger buff than regular continuity, so its a start!

Now time to farm up another 2 million credits.


Also seriously, Shotgun Crit damage mod? The highest crit chance on any shotgun is 15% (Boar Prime and Strun Wraith)... maybe they're going to release an amazing shotgun with 50% base crit? >.>

Right now you can get the prime trader's stuff off of other players in the trading channel for less than 1p/10 ducats, which might be a more efficient use of your resources. Just be warned that each item has a million credit trade tax.

Yeah, rank 0. There's a warning to that effect in the trader's interface that pops up when you have them selected. I bought prime continuity and the fancy detron because I'm awful.
