So the below are the Void focused builds I am using/plan to use for the Boltor Prime/Soma Prime. Boltor is a bit better all around (due to slotting cold for shields), but the Soma comes out ahead in DPS. I got back and forth on the use of Heavy Caliber in the Soma because it makes head shot critting rough to reliably pull off. In the end it probably doesn't matter much one way or the other provide you aren't doing a tryhard run to 60+ in T4D/S.

Anyone notice something critical I am leaving out of the Soma Prime builds?

Boltor Prime Build (19.3k DPS, 29.3k Burst DPS): http://goo.gl/CBa6SU

Soma Prime Build (21.5k DPS, 27.8k Burst DPS): http://goo.gl/R3ybvm

Soma Prime Alt Build with Heavy Cal/Vile Acceleration (27.5k DPS, 39.2k Burst DPS): http://goo.gl/LEnRcL (also known as I like spending ammo restores a lot build)


Other Faction Builds

Grineer (38.98k DPS, 55k Burst DPS): http://goo.gl/vuhJ42

Corpus (38.98k DPS, 55k Burst DPS): http://goo.gl/pWrnn4
Thanks for the ideas, Panzer.

Space-rich Tenno Santas, we need to coordinate our generosity. I'm about to start handing out potatoes as stocking stuffers to start (anything to get those single digit mastery Tenno up to where they're mindlessly running void missions just like the rest of us poor sods) but am not wanting to over-gift to anyone. I'll be on tonight to coordinate better, IGN djk29a
I'll look for you in-game so I can help out as well.

I've updated my list for gifting Tenno boys and girls, and now we wait till 8pm EST so I can start gifting again. Blame DE for nerfing the Tenno Claus cannon, as that's the only reason I havent' gotten you all your toys yet!


I'll be playing tonight if you want to get all jolly and in spirit for Tennomas.

Tenno Santa is indeed a thing still, and I've just launched all the gifts that I can for tonight! I've still got plat to spend for gifts left, but it'll take another couple of days to get it all out.

I've gotten a whole bunch of the lower rank folks tonight, aside from SAMrPants and Amrypooins who I would like to ask which of Hydroid, Vauban or Mesa would they like.

I'll post the list I have of everyone's wishlist stuff and who's already been taken care of by Shalhavet and I when I get back on my PC. Keep on Christmas-ing goons.

I offered in game, but I'll make the offer again here.

I have arcane versions of Hemlock, Essence, Espirit, Flux and Coil that, frankly, I have not had any freaking luck selling. I am horrible at trading and it is christmas. If any of ya'll want one, let me know.

Please, unless you plan on gifting it to another goon, one helmet per request. I only have one of each.

PC Tenno,

Currently all hands are on deck for what this Update contains! We've decided to keep our noses to the grindstone a bit longer to polish the Update, and will put it live no later than Thursday (Dec 18) afternoon.

Couple things to look forward too:
New Archwing & Weapons
And rumblings of a Vay Hek guided disturbance..

Thanks for your patience, Tenno!

New Archwing stuff lands tomorrow.

I have blueprints for Arcane Scorpion (Ash), Arcane Thrak (Rhino) and that one Arcane Ember helmet(Phoenix?). These are free for you if hit me up (waffleface ingame), you are rank 8 or lower and are willing to wait for me to crank em out. I'm not exactly overflowing with mats, so if you want these make sure you actually have the frame for that helmet.

If you haven't built an Angstrum, I recommend it highly. I hear the Amprex is pretty cool too, but can't personally vouch for that like I can the one-handed carpet bomber.

Oh, the network slogan is true -- "watch FOX and be damned for all eternity!"

One thing to be aware of for this little stupid sigil event:

So, it's a simple two-node Mobile Defense.
Most of the enemies that spawn, are inherently fast (as if they were speednova'd).
An extremely large number of the spawns are eximus.
You continue to get the 10x XP bonus for eximus.

As a result, this event literally hoses you down with weapon affinity, especially if you have an Affinity Booster. Just running it once normally with a pubbie group was enough to take an unranked Soma Prime to lv18. In one run. Second run took it to 24.

I had only made this thing today, and I'm going to have three Forma in it by the end of the night.

e: Also, the drop tables have been unchanged re: Oberon parts, so if you don't have it already, you can get it instantly tonight.

I would like for either The Typing Of The Grineer: Overkill, Grineer Defense Force: Infested Armageddon, or Denzine's Dethcube railshooter to be A Thing.

If those are asking for too much, I will settle for the sacrifice of a certain large, fat bird, carried out by anyone wanting Hydroid parts.

That is all.

Since weapon/frame slots are a pain to gift (I thought they might be), I'd like to change my Tenno-Santa request to a Mesa. In game name = Hurion, rank 9.

If you want to keep frames to lower rank dudes, I'm cool with being passed up, cause I can't think of anything else I want!


P.S. Thanks for being cool.

So, I've, like, designed a really sweet attack plan that I'm calling Attack Plan Ded Moroz, like "Deadmau5!"

With help from the clan, got the last Vauban piece I needed last night. Should be able to start building him later today.

Next up: Limbo Theorem and the Mutalist Survival mission on Eris. Tried the latter with a pick-up group last night; we got to 28:29 before the last surviving member extracted. :shepicide:

Then I'll have to see about getting a lift to Alad V to beat him like a Mesa-filled pinata.

Probably going to try to level Ember and some random weapons while I wait, to pass the time until Rhino finishes and I can start leveling him.
