yeah, before raids being slammed back in I'd rather see the third lake orb in Vallis and whatever open world bosses Deimos gets. Are they even working on world bosses for Deimos? Or has that ship sailed?

Does anyone know what determines what railjack zones get void storms? I'd give farming the ambassador a go but I'll be damned if I'm doing that without at least trying to get forma out of it. Are void storms a simple mission rotation? Are they randomized within each proxima? I swear Lu Yan only gets storms once every couple of days and man does it really drive me away from even checking.

Way back when the corrupted mods were first added in and nothing had been balanced around them the best/only way to do very long term orokin tower survival with high tier keys was to abuse the hell out of trinity offering full immunity with max duration and damage reflection. Instant death followed if the immunity ever dropped. Also the immunity was global to all allies regardless of range iirc.

Which, looking at the notes for when things changed and the mods were added was... 2013 :shepicide:

Are you on switch? I have a spare ambassador. I think you just have to do survival missions for it.

Playstation. And it's specifically railjack survival rotation c in the veil for the bp, right? So 20 minutes + railjackin time per roll at like 12% rate. There's a reason it costs more than most primes on the market

I have no idea how to get the ambassador, but i do know that i got three grinding holokeys in a month. I can confidently say that once you have enough holokeys with for all four weapons you should have an ambassador. Also i never did survival and only exterminate/skirmish.

These facts brought to you by ~personal anecdotal evidence~

Whatever the wiki says, yeah. The only reason I have one is because I did a bunch of fissure survival for holokeys and leveling my necramechs.

No idea what version the switch is on since the drops changed but right now on pc you drown in ambassador parts during regular missions, they trade for 1-2p. The main bp is the one that's 20 minute ROT C survival exclusive and trades for 40-50p on its own. And in my opinion it's pretty mediocre and not worth even that much purely for mr fodder.

Its easier to get the ambassador, the blueprint comes from rj survival (c rotation) and parts come from rj raknoids. Parts can be traded. The blueprint is the hardest part. Its mr fodder. I love the fulmin but the ambassador is the awkward younger brother :sad:

Can you also get bps from spy missions? Trying to work out why I have one crafted ambassador and 2 bps in my inventory when I barely ever do void storm survival

They always move through the same five planets, and dont cycle, so Level 5 liches are always squatting at the fort. It can be annoying, partially because half of the missions at the fort are ill-suited for an impromptu three-stage boss fight.

See if you can get a bittervet goon with a warcrimeframe to carry you

Man, I love the Kuva Quartakk. The hipfire auto works fine for trash or nullifier bubbles, and the burst is fantastic for headshots on anything harder. Remember that the burst fires 4 projectiles at the same time, so 4 chances of crit, status, etc. If you build up the buff from the headshot arcane, you get to enjoy it 4 headshots at a time.

It would be better if we could simply toggle fire modes instead of them being tied to aiming or not, but ah, you get used to it.

It's just a tiny secondary Ignis, isn't it? I'd think modding for a ton of status stuff would be the way to go?

There are mods that extend beam range. Are the enemies that are not dying immune or resistant to the elements you're using?

yeah, it does have kind of a short range without mods. maybe that's it.

It has a default range of 15 meters with is shorter than it sounds. I can't find good numbers for this right now but the torso of a basic grineer lancer is ~1m thick, more or less by like .2m.

So the Atomos will melt people up close unless they're very resistant to whatever elemental damage you're outputting but it'll have trouble reaching anything in generic ignis range.

Gloom Protea is the funniest and stupidest thing I've ever experienced in this game. Her passive maxes out Gloom, so the enemies can't move or shoot while Protea's stupid little lasers mow them down. Also the enemies bunch up fairly tightly when they run into a brick wall at the edge of Gloom range meaning the lasers get up to like 32x no sweat

Gloom was a stupid choice for a subsume ability and I will love DE forever for making this mistake

New War release date is December 15th. That trailer was rad as heck.

They did confirm that you'll need a railjack and necramech to do the quest (along with the quests that lead up to it). When you start it you have to commit to playing it all the way through before you can go back to the rest of the game.

They mentioned 70 minutes of new music has been composed just for the quest which is exciting. The quest itself will take several hours.

Cross-platform is coming early-ish next year.

Arcane Eruption is a fun addition to this. You get a constant stream of knockdown pulses thanks to Dispensary and with Gloom enemies take 15 seconds to fall down and 15 seconds to stand back up.
