yeah when i was looking at all those rank 9+ guns thinking "drat im never going to want to touch this hek again" i was probably underestimating how long its going to take to get there. also probably highly overvaluing a single potato.

I've got a riven waiting for whenever I get around to building it. Is there a decent build figured out yet?

What's your in game name? The game keeps throwing really good Rivens at me to sell so I'm space rich at the moment (not Tallgeese rich, but enough).

The big issue with Garuda is that you need tier 4 Solaris United rep for the BP for one of the gemstones.

Granted on the flip side most goons will be glad to fork over three of them if you ask, so.

Wait what, you can trade gems? This game is super weird about that you can and can't trade.

I wish the gun was better, or there was a better version of the gun available, because that mod is cool as hell. 7.5% crit and 10% status just drag that gun down too much.

Here is the effortpost: This gun requires a minimum 6-forma investment. It really, really shines in full-corpro environments. Kill 3 dudes and then warcrime your way into the annals of history with the altfire. Battacor is a good and fun weapon with only one downside: it isn't hitscan, which is fixed by playing Jetstream Zephyr.

When you start facing enemies and they have yellow health bars and you shoot them and you do 1/100th of their health bar in damage, thats when you worry about using Corrosive Projection. Til then, we dance.

We'll start,
like many good things,
with a bear.

Corrosive Projection is a very useful Aura mod for Warframes that makes enemies have 30% less Armor. At high levels Armor makes Grineer very hard to kill. A full team of 4 Warframes using Corrosive Project ('CorPro') will completely remove their armor and make them very easy to murder with knives.

You could have separate loadouts for all your weapons depending on whether or not you're going to be in a 4-corpro group or not oooooor you could just mod all your weapons with either corrosive or viral+slash instead.
If you're in a pub group then you'd be thankful for that corrosive and if you're in a goon group then you're already going to be doing 9 times more damage by default so why care about the "suboptimal" element? :shrug:

I was just doing this last night. Make sure they're caught in the siphon trap first (the wiggly beam) otherwise you'll largely be fighting shadows.

Really enjoyed how creepy this quest was, though the long, long runs to extraction after completing objectives seemed really unnecessary. Also, that last fight in spoiler mode was kinda bullshit, especially as pretty much basic spoiler with more amp.

I haven't potato'd or sunk a forma or 12 into it yet, but they require me to aim, which is a huge bummer from me after coming from Atomos/Staticor. I got a Riven for them at least, so maybe if i max that they'll close the gap.

I see you're undecided on the Prisma Twin Grems and Kphm.

The Twin Gremlins are literally nailguns. They can pin enemy corpses to the wall. Decorate the place with the bodies of your enemies!

The Kohm is an autofiring shotgun that shoots faster and faster til it gets to full speed, determined by your fire rate. It'll keep firing til it runs out of ammo. This is awesome.

To be clear those are all weapons i have maxed already, "undecided" just means i'm not sure i've found the right situation or mod setup for them yet (and am not convinced enough to put a potato in them), or that they just haven't "clicked" with me or my playstyle yet. Also that tier stuff is obviously a very loose, entirely personal joke anyway, same as the "fun/effective/undecided" markers for the frames.

Any weapon can be made usable with enough forma and the right mods so it comes down to how it feels to play.

Of the frames you haven't leveled, Titania is a lot of fun and her pixie guns can wreck poo poo, she's good for treasure hunts too. Limbo is the god of trivializing just about anything and really annoying pubs. Banshee is queen of low level defense.

Saying that there's a lot of stuff in this game and that it has occasional presentation shortcomings would be a ridiculous understatement. And since i haven't even played for 2 months i wasn't around when all of it rolled out one by one, so it's just a way of keeping things only barely overwhelming.
