Merry Christmas folks, just an update on my Arcane Helmet stock!

Espirit went to Emalde and Hemlock is earmarked for Xanadore.

That leaves Flux, Coil and Essence still up for grabs! Let me know if you want one!

If the Coil helm is still available I'll gladly take it off your hands, that bonus range sounds pretty fantastic. Ekallo in-game.

Speaking of Hydroid, any tips on using him well? Still levelling him up and I'm using 1 a hell of a lot while 4 is only an occasional use. 2 and 3 seem quite situational and not sure how best to use those yet.

Unrelated, I devastated my stockpiles of polymer bundles to craft energy restores and now I have a crippling addiction to them.

Reduce range, increase duration, spam 1. That's pretty much it. Hydroid is good at locking down areas and nothing else.

It could lock down giant swarms of infested, yes. But since they can't be damaged by anything but the puddle itself all you accomplish is dragging things out. Also, it tar moas won't get close enough so even that marginal utility is gone. I suspect that he might get more useful if they add augments for his useful powers, though.

Completely unrelated to Tennomas and gifting, I just decided to glance at my card drops to see just how much money I've spent on this game over the course of the time I've played it, and I'd just like to nominate a title for the eventual new thread.

I'm spoilering it in case y'all are a bunch of scrooges who grow faint of heart when you see money frivously spent.

$978.77 aka why have I spent almost $1,000 on this terrible game. :shepspends:

Santa Tenno's Helmet Jamboree Update!

I have just hand delivered the following helmets!

To Gene_Freak a shiny new Essence.

To Ekallo a brand new Coil.

And to Xanadore a wonderfully preserved Hemlock.

I hope you all enjoy!

I still have one helmet left looking for a new owner. An Arcane Flux. Let me know if you would like it! Remember, taking it to gift to another player is also acceptable.

Next frame is probably gonna be male, so I propose that they straight up drop in Gene from God Hand.

Also replace Vor and Kril on Phobos with Mr. Gold and Mr. Silver.

I think I've put about ~~$200 in total into it since i've been playing? Definitely worth it. I've put money into games that I've never got a fun-return on (Cough cough Starbound).

But yeah. If you like the game, then supporting it is great. I doubt I'd have played as much or for as long if it wasn't a F2P game either.

While I wish I could agree (Platinum makes very well-designed games), they're not so hot on the shooting and my frustrations with their challenges (thinking MGR's VR mode and Jetstream Sam oh so much) turns me off the idea.

For real, if you haven't played Vanquish, you're missing out. Not even talking about watching videos or even an LP of it, you don't quite get that Platinum magic unless you play it yourself.

If Kamiya was the design head for Warframe, it would be Vanquish.

The arcane helms retain their old stat benefits from the bygone days. Essence gives a 15% energy efficiency bonus at the cost of 5% armor. I tested it on a couple of runs, even.

I'd say it's equally likely that DE hosed something up with a Hotfix and accidentally gave the 'cosmetic only' helmets back their stat changes. They've broken worse with less :downsgun:
