the 12m vertical cap on all those mods still makes cache hunting a pain on some maps but it's better than nothing

yeah but the vertical is always capped to 12, it just expands horizontal range

If you are up for helping me finish that loving "win by less than 10" Index poo poo for Nidus (the AI keeps loving me over on that one), I will happily run Lephantis with you, I think I've got a stack of keys left over from when I was farming him.

Stacking all the loot mods still makes it so that you have to jump upwards to check an entire room with a high ceiling. And 12 meters sounds about right really. I've never seen it in writing that it was capped, but you really don't get that much vertical detection.

One thing I've found concerning loot mods: An Animal Instinct and Thieve's Wit will extend the range far enough to be just outside the range of your minimap when it is minimized so that is really all you need. No need to change your aura to loot detector as well.

Do we get the same alerts as other regions? I always figured the weird rear end alerts at strange hours were for China or something.

Yes. China specifically is on their own separate branch of the game entirely because China, but the rest of the world all gets tossed in one big pot (separated by platform, but otherwise unified).

Set your matchmaking ping limits high enough and play at the right time and you might find yourself playing with random Japanese folks like I have on more than one occasion.

Sometimes when the host has a lovely connection instead of just not working the door will only open halfway. It always makes me wonder how doors are handled internally that this is even possible.

This game has messed up netcode, I joined a public group the other day in a defense mission, at least 6 more joined after me. Everyone was confused as hell but the host kept saying it happens to him all the time when he's host because of his bad connection.

I don't mean people were disconnecting and new people were joining, I mean there were literally 14+ players in one Defense mission.

I would love to see them call that a feature and make some kind of stupid 40 player raid, even though I know they'd DE it.

I've had this happen to me in a Void Rift, and the UI handles picking from 5 relics to open. I wonder how it would handle 14... Would be interesting if this bug could be reliably reproduced, and used to get to insanely high defense/survival levels.

From my limited time playing the game it seems that DE unvaults stuff/redoes events when the market prices for the frames/weapons/mods get absurd. I don't think Nyx will get a rework unless she gets unvaulted. I don't think Nyx prices have gone up as long as I've played the game, about 4 months.

Unfortunately a single octave of the minor pentatonic scale isn't going to cut it, especially for a song like yakety sax which has tons of accidentals and a wide range of pitches. I'd really like to see them expand the mandachord to be able to change keys and add more pitches, but I'm sure they did what they did so trolls couldn't play tritones and minor seconds all the time to drive everyone insane with dissonance.

Nyx is probably going to stay low for a long while. Her parts were part of the switch over from keys to relics, so a lot of people probably still have tons of relics containing them.

Further hot takes: Thank god they fixed Cataclysm, I don't think I have ever been more annoyed in Warframe. Now they just have to figure out how to make Stasis not super annoying for your team and the Limbo rework will be perfect.

Just make Stasis not apply to allies' weapons. So Limbo can gear for setting up whatever wacky stasis trap with a kulstar or angstrum or whatever people are doing, and the rest of us can continue to shoot things in the rift with impunity. Win/win.

Knowing DE this is likely a huge undertaking regarding the code behind stasis.

E: anyone else getting way more network not responding errors than, say two days ago?

It's based on the order things were released/vaulted. So you know in advance who's going away next. I think Volt Prime and Odonata Prime are on the chopping block? Not sure who the next unvault is.

Nooooo :saddowns:
I literally did the Octavia quest over the weekend in hopes of getting the Mandachord so I could specifically set up Yakety Sax, but then I found out that you need the frame before you can compose anything even if you have the Mandachord built. That does explain why nobody seemed to have a Yakety Sax mandachord example, though.

Volt and Odonata primes were vaulted a few weeks ago. Allegedly, Ash/Vectis/Carrier Primes are the next ones to be vaulted, and Rhino Prime will be the next to be UNvaulted.

With 75% discount, that still costs $125. For a cat.

Couldn't you, like, buy kavat making bundle in the market? Even without imprints, how many times can he roll even with rushing with that much plat? :psyduck:

assuming he did zero farming each kavat is 10 dna strands(50p)+rush(15p)and if he were like me and got a new stasis chamber for each kitty that's an additional(10p) so 10000/75=133.33 kavats. And 153.84 if he consigned everyone he didn't like, but that will cost around 3.8 million credits.

I chuckled at how you bothered to block out all the names of your trade partner in the chat box and trade window, but forgot the PM title and chat member box. But I guess that was purposeful.
