What's the goon approved way of killing dargyn pilots while sliding? Rhino stomp doesn't seem to work anymore, or my basic understanding of "sliding" is flawed

Low level lenses on everything work for some passive income, but few things beat a killer ESO group, like a Saryn, a Volt and some support, and proper lenses on the appropriate elements, so I'd recommend a little of that too. Seriously, hitting the daily cap a few times in a week will do wonders for your trees. And doloning allows you to bypass the daily cap, get arcanes, and is necessary for actually unlocking the loving waybounds. I've finished filling my focus trees and I'm still lensing everything I use, including my amp, and stockpiling focus and dolon shards for a focus update that adds more stuff and will never, ever happen. Unless a very big thing happens in the next big story quest.

Wow, this Brozime guy doesn;t really know what he's talking about does he? He just called the Vauban rework underwhelming, said the Grenades weren't good, and rated it in like the last 5 frames. Which suggests he hasn't played it, at all. He also sad Wukong was bad...

I kinda skipped through that last night and there's a lot of points I disagree with. Aside from ignoring traditional use of lettered grading in favor of just using A/B/C with modifiers so people don't get mad, he seems to slip in and out of focusing on things. It's hard to follow a logic train that says Nezha is one of the best frames in the game due to his kit but Volt is medium tier because Gauss/Saryn exist.

You really should ignore most of what the youtubers say. Shy, who's generally pretty level headed, thinks that the kuva kohm is meh at best and that mag is a bad frame. Sometimes they have magical builds for an Ivara that can solo T4 void survival for hours and hours while virtually AFK and that's worth a look, sometimes they look at one of the few guns that justify using an acolyte mod and, for the first time in history, they don't slot the somewhat rare thing they can't help but show off the rest of the time and declare the gun that merely performs adequately to be poo poo.

Leyzar was great when starting out for the noob-friendly explanation of weapon modding and using common mods for builds. All his builds aren't perfect but in general he puts a lot of effort into testing rather than just going by the numbers. So if you have to kill a level 120 Bombard with a primary/secondary, you know where to find a nice build for that. Sapmatic does a good job on explaining more esoteric stuff, especially good for Eidolons. Xandypants is low-volume and pretty good. That was it for me as far as Warframe ~* partners *~ go.

Ah, Oberon and Nekros are getting unvaulted next, that's annoying, they're frames that I've already invested into, and they're frames I don't enjoy playing.v1ld posted:Leyzar was great when starting out for the noob-friendly explanation of weapon modding and using common mods for builds.

Those three guys are probably the best out there at that kind of deep dive analysis IMO. Brozime you have to take with a grain of salt, some of his analysis isn't wrong. Shy annoys me but she isn't wrong about Kuva Kohm being overrated.

Ivara farming intrinsics was useful. Ivara farming four hour endless runs is, in general, not. It's as useful as making the case that X is good if you're hours deep in a grineer endless with no corpro and only three people and also all the enemies are in one hallway and it's the second tuesday of an even-numbered month. I can't refute that but valuing it the same as "can do well in missions where you want everyone to go fast" and "can do well in missions where you want to kill a lot of enemies" is a mistake.

For Wukong clones, I find it best to give him Amprex, Ignis or Arca Plasmor. He'll close the distance and aiming no longer matters. I THINK he will go beyond leash length in order to close the distance to use whatever weapon he has. Melee is a bit different because he's programmed to stay near your and prioritize the closest enemy. At least that's from what I can tell.

Given the guns now available (and possibly in the past, I wouldn't know) every frame can complete almost all content up to and including sortie-level stuff. Give <insert frame here> an Acceltra and you'll win. If that's the bar for being considered good, then everything is good. There's some weird stuff like dolons and "what about level 200 enemies" edge cases but in general you can do all the things. Edit: Um... so do I have to play the new shawzin to go electric? I have one with a friggin skull on it and if you can't play metal on that then the world has lied to me. Mailer fucked around with this message at 06:22 on Feb 5, 2020 |

I probably shouldn't be complaining, as everyone knows this isn't the go-to game for Xtreme Challenge, but the combination of two Arcane Guardians + Adaptation + Magus Repair makes any frame I have with health completely unkillable. Like after a couple hits I have 1200 armor and Adaptation at 90% so all hits are doing about 2 damage each to my health, which I can instantly heal to full with Magus Repair (which needs no energy to perform and I'm invincible while doing it). It was getting a little boring as Inaros, so I tried something new by dusting off Excalibur Umbra. I gave him my Arca Plasmor and spent the whole time in spoiler mode as he went to town on everything and I went like 50 waves in Arbitration, no sweat. If I put a lot of investment into Focus points, can spoiler mode deal damage comparable to firearms/melee? Like can I eventually exploit Excal Umbra to do more damage as a permanent tag-team than I could on my own? Seems like an interesting thought, to be a cool hipster build like that. Anyway, now that arbitration is too easy, are there any legit challenges left that don't consist of auto-fail mission mechanics? How can you balance the game around frames that can be several orders of magnitude more tanky than others, and not require energy for survival?

Not particularly. That's kind of why I think the game needs new ai. The armor/damage rebalancing stuff is one thing but I think we need enemies who can almost move like us and present a slightly higher playskill requirement than what we have now, as opposed to bigger groups with more damage and armor. There's lots of really crazy silly powerful stuff you can do in this game, breaking the difficulty curve over your knee with a combination of survivability and warcrime tier frame powers and weapons is not a particularly lofty goal. I'm taking a break right now because of real life stuff, and to avoid burnout after doing a decent amount of railjack grinding, but when I come back in a month or less I'm planning on putting effort into frames I never really play but know they can do crazy strong stuff, or have slightly more unique playstyles. Garuda, Gauss, and Grendel are right up there for me, maybe some Gara. Variety was always been my favorite thing about this game, just waiting for a tiny bit more of that.

I mean if you exclusively want to die, you can run up the clock on endless missions until the damage has scaled through the roof. You've gone all in on defensive options using an already super tanky frame that can heal while invisible. If your metric is "can enemies kill me easily?" then any content meeting your requirement would be effectively impossible otherwise. Scaling up to the point where it's unreasonable to kill you is less of a goal than doing all your farming as fast as possible.Zero VGS posted:If I put a lot of investment into Focus points, can spoiler mode deal damage comparable to firearms/melee? No. With a good amp and all focus maxed out you can kindasorta shoot chaff and it'll slowly die. A rapid-fire prism lets you take down null shields. There are shitloads of great abilities (besides just staying invisible and flying around the map) in the trees, but your spoiler will never be a combat powerhouse unless you're exclusively fighting enemies that die to a stiff breeze.

Magus Lockdown is the gimmick way of killing stuff with operator. It does 60% of the target's hp as puncture damage, and in theory you can one shot anything that doesn't have armor or puncture resist by running 2 copies. It works best vs. Grineer w/ 4x corpro. Corpus and infested typically take a couple extra dashes because shields have puncture resist and infested get damage reduction from ancients. Void Siphon waybound from Zenurik lets you spam void dash forever if you're hitting 3+ targets. Combine it with a dash upgrade from another school that gets rid of the knockback for best results. It's pretty mind numbing to kill large numbers of enemies this way, and slower than normal weapons most of the time, so I wouldn't recommend it in general.

Hmm ok then, guess that's a bit disappointing I can't contribute more damage since it's really amusing to watch my Umbra beat the poo poo out of everything. I think it doesn't even use Arca Plasmor ammo when it's in auto-pilot mode. Oh, almost forgot, if you think that's already stupid with Magus Repair healing Excalibur Umbra, I think it might even heal my Octavia Spectre (almost Octavia Spencer lol) as well, who draws all incoming fire and amplifies it back to enemies. Excal Umbra + Octavia + Spoiler is a stupid triple-team. gnoma posted:Magus Lockdown is the gimmick way of killing stuff with operator.

Yeah on goon recommendations I run one Lockdown with one Repair. Didn't notice it doing much damage but it's cool do disrupt the enemies from their objectives.
