Dr Cheeto posted:How do I Nyx Either build for range and duration and use her 3 augment for CC, or build for duration and efficiency and use her 4 augment to become literally the Terminator. Doing both at the same time doesn't really work well. The build that uses her 3 is good for high level mobile defence or excavation, the 4 build can be useful for things like sortie defence. Unfortunately you don't really get much out of Nyx in low level missions.

Her 1 can be fun to grab an eximus unit every once in a while and her 2 is worthless. Nyx was extremely my go-to frame back in the very pre-augment days, back when you had to actually slot your skills in as mods, and I could skip her 2 entirely. I still really like Nyx now, but her 2 is bad.

Is one going to last me longer than the other? I think they're about the same outside of primary damage type so i guess it comes down to if you want to nail dudes to walls (Paris) or hit them with the game's equivalent of a boxing glove-tipped arrow (Cernos)

I’d say Paris but that’s just me due to Impact’s poor damage profile (though it’s fun if you want to ragdoll dudes). You would end up building both if you want mastery, though.

Cernos is a "Shotgun" bow that fire multiple arrows on a horizontal spread, giving its maximum damage potential at middle range.

He's talking about the non-prime variants in the market. As for bows, aim for the Paris Prime, it's extremely easy to get. After that you should be able to pick up a Dread in fairly short order. You could stop there as both of those bows can handle anything in the game but the Rakta Cernos is a good target as imo the best overall bow (out of the regular bows). Cernos Prime is aggressively mediocre in comparison but the multishot gimmick can be amusing. Moving a bit farther afield the Lenz is extremely good and both the Attica and Zhuge are very very good and quite easy to get. They count as bows mod-wise but are automatic crossbows so feel quite different in practice.

Also the Attica is a 5/5 riven disposition, leading it to be quite flexible vis a vis affronts to moral decency

Bowchat: I got a Dread off some alert or mission or something the other day and I think it's in my foundry at the moment. How should I look to build this thing? My only bow experience was bringing a level 0 Mk1 Paris to hydron and leaving with a level 30 that I immediately sold.  Menstrual Show posted:

Now to figure out where any of these mats come from Warframe wiki. I refer to it about every ten minutes when playing the game. There's just so much poo poo to figure out when you're new. When I needed Morphics early I farmed the Vor assassination on Mars for the drops and morphics - the other materials I had a friend taxi me out to a defense mission on ...Saturn or something? I didn't make a Paris, but I needed all those parts. alternately if someone's wiling to farm Ember for/with you, I got most of those resource drops while doing that. And it also gets you the Ember frame, which is good. Psion fucked around with this message at 21:44 on Dec 30, 2017 |

AttackBacon posted:He's talking about the non-prime variants in the market. poo poo. Basic reading skill failed. The "holy bow trinity" Is Dread, Paris, Cernos. Myself i use an Attica (sometime with Thunderbolt) for Bow only Sorties. Lenz is nice on the Plains or for planetary base maps but i tend to kill myself too often with it in ship corridors. Archwing is fun in small dose

Dread is basically as much crit/crit damage as you can fit on it and maybe the fire rate mod to make the charge time quicker. Fill everything else with elemental damage and serration and multishot obviously but thats true for almost every gun Cicadalek fucked around with this message at 22:26 on Dec 30, 2017 |

Tons of stuff is given away in clan chat constantly and people carry newbies through index/hydron all dang day long without it showing up here.

My only bow experience was bringing a level 0 Mk1 Paris to hydron and leaving with a level 30 that I immediately sold. It has a crazy 50% crit chance, but it also has a focus on slash damage and a decent 20% status chance. So your options are a.) Build it all entirely around crits with 90% elemental mods with the goal of oneshotting anything you point it at. or b.) Build it half-and-half for crit and slash status, with 60% mods for viral to synergize with the bleeds. This way the crazy level 100 heavy gunners that you can't oneshot still die to armor-ignoring bleed ticks afterwards. Either way you'll probably want Speed Trigger or Vile Acceleration, because fire rate mods dramatically increase the charge-up speed of bows. Then your last slot can be one of your fancy new bladed argon event mods, or if you're building for slash it can be the +120% slash damage mod (if you have it, but it's pretty hard to get).

Ok so ive picked up that Prime doesnt just mean the non modified version of a bow. Whats a prime? Edit: NM reading wiki now sorta get it.

ZeusCannon posted:Ok so ive picked up that Prime doesnt just mean the non modified version of a bow. Whats a prime? Primes are fancy, gold-plated versions of weapons and warframes. They have better stats than non-Prime versions. For example, the difference between Paris Prime and Paris: Higher base damage (100.0 vs. 90.0) Lower Impact Impact damage (2.5 vs. 4.5) Higher Puncture Puncture damage (80.0 vs. 72.0) Higher Slash Slash damage (17.5 vs. 13.5) Higher charge attack damage (200.0 vs. 180.0) Higher critical chance (45% vs. 30%) Higher status chance (20% vs. 10%) Different polarities (Naramon Pol Madurai Pol vs. Naramon Pol) Higher Mastery Rank required (4 vs. 0) Primes become kind of like chase items, but some are super easy to get (Paris Prime is pretty easy).

Also "gold-plated" was not a metaphor Primes always have fancy gold metallics that color nicely. There's some ingame lore poo poo about how Primes are like orokin originals or some poo poo but I'll let someone who actually understands the lore of this game explain that.

Is there any way to boost my chances of meeting /surviving stalker? Stalker comes to murder you when you kill a boss, so you can get his attention by killing them. Surviving him... kiting around helps and try not to rely on powers (he turns them off) He becomes really trivial later on but is tough the first few times you meet him. If you run in groups often, you can often just rely on your pals to murder him for you. Soothing Vapors fucked around with this message at 00:30 on Dec 31, 2017 |

Most important thing with Stalker is finish Second Dream so you can get the anime laser. Shooting Stalker with the anime laser resets his damage resists, which means you can just chunk him with your high-damage weapon of choice. There's still some randomness involved because he hits like a truck. Also he'll only reset your powers if he's affected by them, so sometimes you can get away with them anyway, like he generally won't knock Loki out of stealth unless you start shooting him from stealth.

Maybe spoil that? But normal Stalker doesn't upgrade himself to Shadow Stalker and get the damage resist thing until after you begin that questline, so newbies don't have to worry about it.

Soothing Vapors posted:Also "gold-plated" was not a metaphor Primes always have fancy gold metallics that color nicely. Warning : superfulous rambling on a videogame lore ahead Prime are Items crafted with Orokin technology. They can be original orokin desing from the Old War days or adaptations of new Tenno desing made with the Orokin process of crafting. You see, Orokin craftmen did not sully their hands with crude metal or chemicals, they designed items as pure, perfect quantum equations dictating the arrangement of matter at the molecular level. Once the equation was designed you just had to feed it to a relic, bake it with enough void energy and "Voila", the relic would collapse the quantum superposition state of your desing equation and give you a perfectly crafted part out of raw energy. A regular foundry could then assemble the parts together for use. At least that was the process during the Orokin Era. For now since we where all trained to be killer machines instead of crafter we have to rely on the eqations made available for us by the Lotus. The ammount of different equations available from the Lotus databanks to insert into various type of relics is however limited, what remain of Luna being rather small, so older desing are sometime sent to the memory vault to make place for newer creations. With enough time and a Void Tower you could technically get the exact part out of a relic everytime but we lack the genetic information to take permanent control of the Orokin Towers, so we have to rely on void fissure and imperfect relic refining instead. Thats how i see it.

As I see it, prime stuff is what we actually used during the old war, the way orokin designed it While regular tenno stuff (frames and weapons) are what the lotus (and her network of agents) have kind of guesswork reconstructed from incomplete records Kind of like if you have a bunch of dinosaur bones you can sort of figure out how it all goes back together, but you're still at a loss how the dinosaur really looked or maybe you don't have quite all the bones, etc.

Berke Negri posted:As I see it, prime stuff is what we actually used during the old war, the way orokin designed it That's what some of the Prime codex entries say. quote:Once thought lost to the ages, attempts to reengineer the Burston Prime never fully replicated this weapon's power and agility. Because pretty much all technology that the Orokin used was genetically locked to a few individuals the fall of their empire took a lot of technology and knowledge with it. The regular Tenno stuff that you get in game are just attempts at recreating old technology. Then you run into something like Valkyr where even the Tenno copy was lost, so the Valkyr you get in game is a version reverse engineered by the Corpus based on the Tenno copy of the original Prime variant.
