I got that Carrier sentinel but the little fella doesn't seem to do much. Am I supposed to press a button to make him work? Or is there just not much auditory or visual feedback when he's working? I've not noticed him shoot anyone yet, but maybe I gotta be closer.

Is it worth getting Helios too?

Akstiletto Prime is king of secondary DPS and it's a full auto akimbo gun pair. Regular Stiletto is in dojo Tenno lab and a decent pair of guns. Aksomati is decent and the younger brother of (regular) Soma. Akzani is also a decent dual auto guns. Like someone already said, Twin Grakata is a good bullet hose. Stubba is also good, like a single version of Twin Grakata but more accurate even if ammo could be a problem in high levels. But Stubba only drops from Ghoul Invasion I think.

Cestra, Furis, Viper and their dual versions are poo poo.

Turns out I already have a Stubba, so I'll use that for now. I do like the idea of going akimbo though.

So once I get in the dojo there are a bunch of blueprints I can pick up from there, right?

Melee question - am I right in thinking 'quick melee' is for attacking with melee when you have a gun drawn, and 'melee' is the attack command when you've switched to your melee weapon? So it doesn't matter if I have both bound to the same key?

Also, where do I find blueprints in the dojo?

So this polarisation stuff - it resets the rank of anything you do it too, right? But the advantage is that you can choose polarisations to match mods, allowing you to cram more high level mods on there?

Does it matter what slot position you polarise, or is that irrelevant? Anything else I should know about it?

Any recommendations for melee weapon mods? Aside from sticking on the basic damage I'm never sure what to do with them. Is it worth pumping up whichever of puncture/impact/slash is weakest, or just focusing on the one with strongest base damage? Any especially worthwhile rare mods for melee to watch out for?

Yes because those guys have gotten their relics from bounties on Cetus.

I forgot, but you can also get vaulted relics from the Syndicate relic packs.

Oh I know, just sayin that for anyone still learning their way around if you haven't got any bounty relics you can still find these parts when cracking relics with people who do have them.

On a related note...does anyone want a Valkyr Prime or Nekros Prime bp? I've got some spare and would like to trade for other bits.

I've sort of hit a wall with Oberon. Because i'm in the UK and on Virgin Media, I can never matchmake properly, so can never rely on finding groups. But i'm too weak to solo a lot of the mission types (the one i'm stuck on is a rescue, and gently caress that vs corpus and their little metal shield rapists), so there are a lot of nodes just sitting there uncompleted.

I understand that the next major power bump comes after War Within, but at the moment I'm just not powerful enough. My biggest problem is that I don't have any kind of bubble or immunity.

I'm currently baking Gara and have been playing around with Nezha, but ultimately i'm just not really feeling like there's any more I can reasonably do to get more powerful apart from try and work on a new frame.

Oh, and i'm stuck on the rank 8 test as well.

Farm Rhino on Fossa, Venus. You can pop Iron Skin and breeze through most of the star map solo if you have to (but it's better with goons).

Like I say, it's not the best build, nor do I have the best mods. Currently lacking any focus abilities, at MR7 but going to practice my rank 8 jumps with uncle Simaris today.

Would welcome any recommendations for a good secondary. The reload & fire rate on the AKs is fine, but ideally I'd want something more fitting with the bow / sword theme that can handle hordes.

The reason I have spare points here & there is because I only have one of some mods, and they get passed around between my other frames who don't have the same point capacity.

Ask in the clan chat for non-broke versions of your broken mods. Someone should have them.

When you've done MR8 get the Lenz. It's a space bow with AOE damage and it loving rules. For the MR8 test, take it slow. You're not on a timer.

Other options for your secondaries in keeping with your theme include throwing knives like the Kunai, or the Ballistica (a mini crossbow). Or maybe a gun like the Euphona or Bolto.

Sign up for a syndicate asap. There are some good mods in there and you can trade them with the clan or sell stuff for plat. Look up the offering requirements for your chosen syndicate, later stages require Prime parts.

Aksomati is a pair of secondaries with wind-up rapid fire and a speedy and cool looking reload, but for the amount of :effort: it takes to build* it's really not worth it until you reach the "gotta catch 'em all" endgame.

* Build 2 Stilettos, build AKstiletto, use it as a component to build AKsomati.

Or do what I did: build akstiletto, forget about aksomati and sell akstiletto to clear inventory space, realise mistake and waste forma building another akstiletto*

Hey guys - I was a long time Warframer (PC) but stopped in late 2015 at around MR22 with alot of maxed guns/frames/mods and prime/exclusive stuffs including the founder Excalibur/skana etc etc. I tried to get back into it but so much has changed and garbage added that I just don't have the time, energy or interest anymore.

I'd love to sell off access to the account lock-stock-and-barrel so someone could either use it or strip it for all the goodies, is anyone here interested? Or am i completely out of my mind thinking anyone wants a bunch of maxed mods and junk from an internet vidja game. Ideally i'd love enough to cover a copy of Farcry5, so like ~100 bux or whatever, probably make that back in platinum selling stuff... I dont know what prices are like anymore.

If you have Excal Prime you may be able to sell the account for silly money.

That was less of a pain in the arse than I expected because it's easy to get matched with pubbies on Lua trying to do the same thing, so you can team up and get them done fairly quickly. And you get some nice mods from them too.

I am torn between something super defensive and some AoE farmer. Or maybe some other must have frame if there are such, besides the commonly mentioned Excalibur and Rhino. I wouldn’t enjoy very slow frames, however. Doesn’t have to have zoom ability, just not Nezha with fire walker off.

Nezha is cool so far, no major complaints.

Have you tried Banshee yet? Resoquake modded for range can lock down huge areas, and Sonar lets you do a ton of damage to individual enemies.

Big bunch of new players around. I know I've got no clue which of the ten thousand side quests that keep popping up are important or not. Like, what the gently caress is this Plague Star? Do I want to do it, even as a lovely scrub getting wiped out trying to claw my way through Uranus? I have no way to know.

You can probably skip it this time and just focus on unlocking the map. I don't think any of the rewards are anything you'd find super useful at this point, besides the pre built forma? It'll come around again in six months or so, by which point if you're still playing you'll have a ton more gear and a better grasp on the game's mechanics.

So I've just started playing, currently MR3 and chugging through Mars. Apart from smashing out the star chart, what frames or weapons should I be aiming for asap?

I have all the pieces for rhino but still need the plastids, and running a Barton, Lato and Orthos.

Join the clan and ask for a taxi to a plastid farm. Rhino is great for working through the star map. And when you hit mr4 build the Hek shotgun.

Oh yeah, another tip for newbies: once you've built up some capital and resources, buy the titan extractor blueprint from the market, complete every node on Earth, and then deploy the extractor there every chance you can get (just don't redeploy them if they're not at 100%).

It has a small chance of giving you Neurodes, which you're really gonna find yourself gated by until way later in the game. I found it really helpful to come home from work and hey, free neurodes every once in a while.

I built one more extractor than I can deploy so that I've always got at least one at full health.
