I visited the clan hall and looked at what was on offer, but my mastery apparently isn't high enough (it's currently 4) to make most of this stuff (even though I have the mats to make a number of things). How do people generally deal with trying to balance effectiveness with ranking up equipment? I imagine it's good to have at least one of your weapons be higher rank at all times, but I want to avoid using maxed out stuff since that's basically like wasted XP if I'm understanding correctly. Also, how hard is it generally to grind a boss for warframe parts? I haven't actually tried yet, but I figure I should get the Rhino parts since I have access to that boss.

Absolutely go for Rhino, he is one of the most solid 'frames in the game. It's annoying, but well worth the effort. I also HIGHLY suggest Frost, he's tanky and he is simple to use and incredibly useful to groups. His snowglobe can protect you and your allies and your objective with nowhere near the hassle required of more advanced 'frames like Gara or Limbo.

some bosses are more annoying than others but any you have access to will be on the really easy end of the spectrum also do them in public groups cause it'll go a lot smoother

Have one Good Thing(tm) that you actually use and two slots (plus pet/sentinel, where applicable) that you're just leveling for MR. Early on that almost always means you have your kickass primary gun (Hek, Ignis Wraith, etc) and your secondary/melee as MR fodder that you cycle through. Grinding frames as you go is also a good way to keep the MR up. Once you complete The New Strange you unlock Sanctuary Onslaught, which is how you'll want to level frames and is also good for leveling weapons until you beat the critical path storyline and unlock Elite Sanctuary Onslaught. If you don't like a frame you can quickly grind it here for the MR then go back to what you were doing in a frame you like. Most boss-drop frames aren't terribly painful. Much later there's a couple of them that are a bitch to get because you have to grind up a separate mission type just to gain a chance at the boss, but that's so far ahead of you that it doesn't matter.

It depends on the bosses drop table. For the easy ones it's mostly a ~1/3 (you buy the main bp from the store) or 1/4. Sometimes you get a bit unlucky and need a frustrating amount of runs to get the last part ( 1-(1-p)^n can be a jerk ). But for average bosses where the mission takes 2-3 minutes (pub it or ask for a taxi if you get stuck on the fight itself) it's usually pretty quick. Then there's annoying ones like Equinox, which needs like 8 parts, so hunting that last one requires some persistence. Or there's boss fights that take 10+ minutes to run like ambulas, or have entry ticket requirements (meaning, more time required per attempt) like Kela. Boss (+dojo and mission type) frames were 90% of my early starchart MR, and i was bottlenecked more often by frame slots or materials needed for the builds themselves than the frame blueprints.

SIGSEGV posted:Nobody ever checks their PMs on wf.m so you trade you looking in the for sale list and clicking the buttons on a line until it gives you a line of text to copy and paste into warframe chat. Then you meet up at a dojo and trade. If you sell on wf.m, remember to check that people aren't trying to gently caress you over by editing the price, they do that sometimes, also send all bargainers packing, because gently caress those guys wasting my time.

I was buying something listed on Warframe Market earlier today and The seller invited me to their dojo and insisted I go to the second trading console. I didn't even know the trading console made a difference but I could not trade with him at the console in the room where I spawned. The dojo was like some kind of maze or something and he insisted I go through it. There were also several other of his clan there. I felt bad about just leaving because they must've put work into their dojo and wanted me to see it.  I just wanted to buy my goods and go back to cracking relics.

Ytlaya posted:edit: If I'm understanding this correctly it looks like you can buy all the parts to craft prime warframes for like 80-150 platinum even for vaulted ones?  Reminder that those are set prices, which are usually "sum of component prices + 10% to 50% lazy tax", so you can pick them up even cheaper if you already have some parts or dont mind using 4 trades.

I think there's another dojo structure that looks almost identical but is for clan contributions to the collective resource pile rather than trading. It might've been innocent. On the other hand, I know of at least one goon who would challenge pubbies to reach the inverted trading post on the ceiling of the GOON dojo. He at least had the decency to offer them a discount if they could make it, though.

I put a potato into my regular Loki, no regrets. I find him so much quicker and easier to use than Infiltrate Ivara, and if I want to get through laser barriers, just use switch teleport. Ivara’s kit is so much more flexible though.

The early bosses that will ruin your day are Vay Hek (Earth) and Lech Kril (Mars). Neither of them are hard if you read up but pubbies can be relied upon to do approximately zero of that.

I had nekroses and hydroids to boost the loot and it still took an insane amount of time. It burned me out on warframe for like a year. I still get completely apoplectic at how easy it is to get now, when I accidentally think about it. I also hope his rework is going to be good, despite looking pretty boring and lackluster in the stream. Just give him a loving super high dps canon turret you dumb shits.

for starting out having a solid gun (maybe putting a potato in it for extra measure if you got one i forget the new player experience) like the regular braton or some twitch prime freebie if you got that, is a good measure then just using the rest of your slots for things to level but once you unlock New Strange you can just use sanctuary onslaught to level things then use regular missions with stuff that's maxed, the affinity gain is never comparable from just using things regularly to doing NOS or EOS for like 5-20 minutes

Shadows of Mordor had the fun army-chessboard hierarchy tho, with an intricate promotions and rival system that you could start manipulating for your pawns. Which is how i ended up converting every single leader on both areas. Steve himself said they can't obviously go quite that deep with their nemesis version (yet?). Also if i cant do the handshake emote with my recruited lich the entire system is worthless Zereth posted:Loki's an outlier because he's been vaulted for approximately five billion years, right? Loki Prime can't do a single thing that regular loki can't, and his best skin is a nice tennogen (that you mostly wont see because you're cloaked) anyway. Some MR just comes at absurd prices i guess. glad to see theyre finally turning down the anime in warframe a bit RoadCrewWorker fucked around with this message at 10:11 on Oct 21, 2019 |

yeah loki p is pretty much only good for mastery by this point and once you get to the point you need that for mastery just nut up and plat down cause you'll never use him outside 4 times a month maybe if even that

Enjoying Mesa Prime the last few days in ESO/random missions, but having issues with survivability in late game/high level. Anyone have a good build for her frame? Currently have health at ~1200 with vitality and gladiator health, she has pretty low armor so not sure if buffing that would be effective. Got her pistols pretty much maxed with crit/crit damage + the usual damage buffs.

What's up with this clan stuff where you buy clones to defend a thing or whatever? I saw some options about this that said something about making people pay the clan to use a portal or something.Mailer posted:Have one Good Thing(tm) that you actually use and two slots (plus pet/sentinel, where applicable) that you're just leveling for MR.

If you don't like a frame you can quickly grind it here for the MR then go back to what you were doing in a frame you like. I've decided to mostly focus on progression now (aside from grinding out Rhino since I need to put MR at another frame since I maxed mine) after realizing that I can't start the syndicate stuff yet (which I figure I want to get started on so I can do its weekly or daily content or whatever).

Clans used to be able to fight for the right to tax Dark Sectors, nodes that give things like bonus credits. This hasn't been a thing in a long time, but  when there are new open worlds and kuva liches and gameplay systems to tear down and rebuild.

I run something like this, just missing the last dot on some of the mods and the last rank on the arcanes. The arcane guardian is probably overkill: vitality, adaptation, the small amount of power strength to hit 95% damage reduction on her 3 and the efficiency/duration to keep it up constantly are all you really need to tank a ridiculous amount of non-melee damage.
