Most Primed mods are still really good even at 7 or 8 pips. And because the price doubles at each tier, that's only 12.5%-25% of the full price, way easier to afford. Heck, most of them are still strictly better than the original even at 6 pips, which is practically free.

Yup - the only reason to max primed and umbrals imo is when you are out of anything else to level.

In terms of ROI the plat would go a lot farther than a single max ranked mod as I could buy more rivens with it. With that said, I'm still fairly new to the game with 'just' 400 hours so - so to me plat is worth more; I know there are definitely people out there for whom endo is more useful..

Pendent posted:I've been playing this game a shitload for the past month or so and yet I feel like it wants more time from me than I can plausibly give. This weekend alone I'd really love to get the primed shotgun mod from Baro for my Arca Plasmor but would have to grind up ducats to get it, need to grind the plague event and also would really like to finish The Sacrifice for the cool new warframe. IF you wanted to get a new amp the plague star event is a good place to start as it is a easy way to get the piles of wisps you need. Either join some pub teralyst runs or ask if goons will take a newbie along to get a pile of cores to make into rep. You'll need to be rank 1 with quills which is 5k rep as well as 4k more rep to buy the amp parts (raplak/pencha/clapkra) since you can pick one part as your gift for hitting rank 1. Total of 30 wisps plus various fishing and mining bits. If you feel too crunched for time do Baro -> Plague and Sacrifice last. Umbra is nice but depending on your other frames you might already have stuff you like to play better. The mods when you get them are even with regular mods, so you still need to make a moderate investment of endo/credits to make them crazy. As well as forma to muck around with the other polarities.

Just a quick Ducat PSA these common items give 25 ducats instead of 15, pick them when there isn't anything better. Paris Prime Lower Limp Braton Prime Blueprint Fang Prime Handle Lex Prime Blueprint As for picking up wisps in plague star, while it's something you -can- do, just learning where they spawn and doing a quick pond flyover with zephyr or itzal and reset will get you wisps much faster then the time investment to do the event, doubly so if you got a resource booster from somewhere.

Both of those are bad (generally) and can be had for free from people with big stacks of them from eidolons. Get the Supra Vandal if you can, it is possibly the best autorifle in the game. And if you like shotguns, Primed Charged Shell is both new and good.

Plague Star run quote: "I love how every time Ritznit shoots, my computer dies for a second" Mirage Prime + Phantasma = Murder fireworks so beautiful the game can not handle them.  In my defense, I play on low effects and don't have this problem. Also in my defense, it looks rad as hell. Bonus points for bright pretty energy colors. I just hold down the alt fire to charge and then rain art on my enemies.

All you need to do the sacrifice comfortably is the art of the anime lightning step, that all you need to not get your rear end skewered, double tap it (a bit in the air) to get far being our good friend, turn around, blast away while it recharges, get back in the cycle. Easy as pie. Also dodging in warframe mode is far easier, you're essentially invincible while you aren't trying to harm something, so if the transference static is getting your real spacemom, Valkyr, down a bit, eat a health pizza and bullet dodge for a minute while your health goes up again. E: Also, you can't die in anime mode only portions of the game. You just respawn with the enemy retaining the damage you've done to them. Makes it easier to be easy as pie.

So this pimple event, is there a good way to get Gronk/Iridite/Nettle stuff for making the eidolons? Any "radar" on the map or anything? Also, Since I haven't been doing any Sorties or POE bounties yet, what are these Plague ZAWS and what should I be trying to get from this? Lastly, I have a serious shortage of FORMA right now at MR9, wanting to forma some guns finally like the IGNIS WRAITH and maybe some frames... Should I just say screw all these other items and just pimple myself to Forma bliss?

iradite has a bit of a trick to it, yeah. you have to start the highest tier bounty, preferably solo, and then go to the far edges of the map away from cetus. higher level plains drops more iradite, and the further spawn points drop more on top of that. grokdrul drops all the time in grineer camps, most bounties require fighting in grineer camps, so if you do bounties at all you will quickly get more than you ever need. well, maybe not if you don't bring vacuum, but what kind of scrub would do that? nistlepods don't spawn near cetus, only at higher altitudes. so, just climb one of several mountains.

As a bonus if you have Khora you can also equip it on Venari to double the range. Someone should be able to give to you if you ask in clan chat.

100% Agree. If and only if you need amp parts RIGHT NOW DAMMIT and haven't gotten enough of everything else is it worth doing for that. But learning to do some loops and spot the spawn/spawn points is a much better goal. Also better to take it slow and not rush and drive yourself crazy.

Don't use the Plague grips with the Plague strikes, use them with regular strikes for the free viral damage, they aren't that much slower than Peye/Seekalla.

RNGesus, it seems that all my lacking luck in getting blueprints and mats is made up for in my luck with getting coupons. 50% this time. At first I was thinking of just getting like a relic pack or a skin or something because I don't want to get any more Warframes since at this point that's just lessening overall content. I WANT to grind things. ...then I remembered that I haven't managed to get a single part of Ash to drop from Manics so gently caress it, I bought the most ninja of the anime space ninja.

Terry van Feleday posted:Zaws are some of the strongest melee weapons in the game, but require much more investment, understanding and general grind than regular melee weapons do, so they are very much an endgame thing. The Plague Zaw Strikes specifically (Kripath and Keewar) are very strong and only available during the event, so if you miss them now you won't be able to get them again until the next time the event happens. Since zaws can be built multiple ways and you can't reuse components, some people get 2 of each strike while the event is running. So I like the explanation of why I should get one, what I need to understand now is how. Do I need to collect a couple pieces and then level up rep with ostron to get more to make these things? What are the steps? I have zero rep with Cetus stuff right now. Been concentrating on leveling frames for MR and unlocking all nodes
