You'd have to be running on a pretty garbage system to be unable to run the Plains. Actually, looking at that, you're actually not far off mine. 4gigs of RAM will hurt, but I used to game on that on the Plains before. Tips I can give are, turn on Resolution scaling if you haven't already, then knock the slider down in increments until it runs nicely. Turn off God Rays. Turn down shadows. Turn off reflections. Outside the game, go to the launcher, click on the Gear icon. Verify, then Optimize the cache. You running on a 64bit OS? Kokoro Wish fucked around with this message at 01:55 on Mar 30, 2018 |

Thanks for tips, will try 'em out tomorrow (GMT timezone dealio). Though part of me wonders if the Plains are always online as Cetus is always a nightmare for me to naviage due to killer lag.

Cetus is horrible lag for me on a pimped-out gaming PC, even when choosing 'calm' instance. Once out the gate to actual plains it's fine though. You can jump directly to plains from ship navigation, but I think it defaults everything to lowest difficulty, which is fine for fishing/mining, but not much help if you want a bounty. ESC menu + fast travel to the various Cetus NPCs is also a thing, and picking Konzu gets you next to the exit door.

The game could barely handle 8 Tenno doing actiony things. 30 of them on full blown fashionframe blinged up mode would be taxing to the engine. I'm on old gtx 770 and Earth tileset used to run worse than Plains for me. But it's been smooth lately. It goes up and down after every patch.

Alright, I have a tons of guns leveld to max, a few prime frames and weapons also topped off (only a few with potatoes, though), and nearly 100% of the system open. When is the right time to take the dive and start doing sorties and heavier stuff? I don't feel like the rewards from just bounties/alerts are scaling anymore.

# ? Mar 30, 2018 05:23 |

Sorties should be started as soon as you have access to them.
|
# ? Mar 30, 2018 05:33 |

sorties are pretty doable as long as you have a frame and a weapon that are kitted out to be reasonably decent. the rest just comes down to mission type and the modifiers, which can completely ratfuck your party from the getgo anyways no matter what your gear is.

Weapon mod wise, you want one really good elemental setup (like an Arca Plasmor) for the Physical Enhancement folks, and a good non-elemental crit setup (like a Vectis) for the Elemental Enhancement modifiers. The rest of it can be covered by building for resilience and not stepping in the poop. Sorties are absolutely worth the time if you can run them daily, as riven mods are platinum printing machines and even the "garbage" rewards of 4000 endo or 6000 kuva go a long way to getting mods maxed out.

Just a heads up, maybe something to put in the OP - the Wardroid app for Android is amazing for plat farming and building up your mod collection. I mentioned I was going to try it a few pages back but I have been and I really need to share how good it's been. It's a lightweight app that notifies you when alerts / nightmares are up. You can filter by platform as well, so even us console spuds can use it. No sign in required, and it loads a shitload quicker than the official app (although there's no foundry / extractor management). Most importantly you can filter the notifications so it only tells you about certain alerts, which means you can skip all the credit / endo alerts and check catalysts, forma and reactor blueprints etc. It covers rare mods, helmets, potatoes and invasion rewards. Since i've had it installed, i've managed to get Lethal Torrent, Corrosive Projection, Quick Thinking and a bunch of other really good mods I would have otherwise missed, as well as a huge increase in potato blueprints. I've got most of the things I need now, so i'm selling the spares in trade for plat. Drawbacks: Having to sit there during a family dinner when you know there's a rare bounty up and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it.

It still tells you about new stuff, it just uses the internal name so you get a garbage notification. Mostly the helmets. Like I say, it still works and it still tells you about a crapload of really good mods and potatoes I would have otherwise missed.
|
# ? Mar 30, 2018 14:51 |

Right, but if you want to filter out helmets you already have or whatever, you can't if it's less than 4 years old at this point.
|
# ? Mar 30, 2018 15:06 |

There's a setting to let you see unknown rewards, which is what gives you the weird internal name for stuff added after the dev abandoned it. I mean yeah, you get the odd notification you don't need and can't filter out, but it's useful mostly for the mods and potatoes.

Despite having an account for years and getting into the guild a few times (and booted, lol) I'm only just now digging into the game. I didn't realize you could build drat near everything, even the prime frames. I thought you could only get them if you bought them. The flight levels are awesome and I'm disappointed I didn't get into this earlier. When during progress should I hit the Plains? I'm going through Mars now and just hit rank 4.

Death by frame weapon at least, my archwing abilities do poo poo for damage and just knock people over. Then you get one shot knocked out of the air by a rocket launched by a machete man. Space archwing can be cool and fun but it's in this awkward separate but same space. The mission types aren't weird enough.

Ugggh. I'm like a whisper of xp away from MR 13 and being able to build my galatine prime and other cool stuff, but all weapons and frames that could put me over the line are still baking and 6+ hours away. I'm so desperate I might even do the unthinkable and level my forgotten Arcwing stuff past 15.

# ? Mar 31, 2018 05:00 |

Once you get a new jetpack, like the Itzal, archwing becomes better. I also recommend building a new gun and a pair of Knux (or other melee weapons if you're boring)

archwing itself isnt as bad gameplay wise as people make it out to be its just there's not a lot of reason to revisit maps and progression is super hosed up stilted putting the weapon parts behind syndicates pretty much ensures that you probably wont actually start building the actual good AW weapons or AWs until after you already completed all of the star map and then there's really no reason to revisit like 98% of AW content also a lot of mods that for frames that'd be considered standard are weirdly rare and bizarrely expensive to upgrade
