Neurolimal posted:I picked Loki because I didn't realize stealth blew so much Loki owns, regardless of the fact that you can't stealth missions because this isn't a stealth game. Invisibility is awesome for reviving people in the middle of a big fight. Combine it with Decoy to make sure the enemy stays away (although if you're pressed for slots Invis is probably enough). Radial Disarm is absolutely great (reduces all those big scary special enemies to just running around like idiots for the duration). Even Switch Teleport is okay, though sadly you can't switch on team mates any more. You can slot Invisibility and Radial Disarm only and then just make a Galatine and charge-attack for 800 damage.

Morshu posted:Have they outright said that warframes are mutated people, and not just weird suits of armor made from the virus? I recall the devs not really outright stating anything, and while I never played Dark Sector, I think Hayden's excal suit could be taken off, and only his arm mutated. I always got the impression that Warframes are just sapient suits of armour, pretty much - intelligent Tenno weapons, but not people.

80% of your power in this game comes from having the right (read: best) mods at high levels. Combined with squashing the enemy levels together and the damage review being literally out the gate, that's probably why you're struggling.

For some reason, my Warframe now crashes on launch with a generic error. Verifying cache via the launcher does nothing, either.  e; disabling 64-bit mode fixed it, it seems, but I'd rather not run in 32-bit mode. :/ Lemon-Lime fucked around with this message at 23:54 on Nov 22, 2013 |

Piell posted:Get rid of Vitality, you should always have Iron Skin up and if that goes down you should still have plenty of shields to soak damage before you put Iron Skin back up. I'd probably ditch Continuity as well, it really only makes a difference on Roar. Then put on Focus and max out Streamline. Helter Skelter posted:I'd drop Continuity and get Focus (if you have it) in there instead. Right now, Vitality, Continuity and Marathon are in there pretty much just because I've got nothing else to spend my mod points on that would even make a difference. Sadly, I don't have Focus. I think I'm going to forma the top left slot to a -. Good/bad idea?

Piell posted:Good idea. In my opinion you should always use polarize a power slot first (well, that or the aura slot), because all frames have at least one lovely power that isn't worth slotting. My first forma was the aura slot, so I could take full advantage of the bonus points from Energy Siphon. e; I need to forma my Wraith so I can put more mods on it, but I'm sort of reluctant given its current damage...  That's at 23. I'll be able to fit 15 more mod points by the time it's 30. Lemon-Lime fucked around with this message at 15:58 on Nov 29, 2013 |

Rhino is probably the second easiest frame to level behind Nova. Just run Xini or any of the other usual mobdefs a few times, you'll be back up to 30 in no time thanks to Roar + Stomp.

Mogomra posted:Is there any game that's on PC and consoles that allow cross-platform multiplayer? The Shadowrun FPS that launched Games for Windows Live had it - cross-platform play was actually one of the big selling points for GfWL originally. Even with mouse controls being handicapped (negative accel and a turn rate cap), the disparity in skill levels between the two platforms was so bad that it resulted in GfWL going from an XBL-style sub service to a free social/DRM platform and cross-platform dying there and then. It has nothing to do with certification and patches, but I still like telling the story.

Flipswitch posted:Ammo counts and drops have been so hosed in this game forever. Seeing the Penta have like 600 rounds stock before any mods was a bit alarming. There's no reason why they couldn't just add new ammo types, like "explosives" for the ogris/penta, or "energy" for the ignis/flux rifle, and give them max amounts that are balanced. Or failing that, at least make the explosive guns use sniper ammo instead of rifle ammo.

echronorian posted:Quick noob question here: I put together the rhino chassis in the foundry but I can't find where I equip it. When I go to the arsenal menu and highlight my current one (excalibur) it pulls up a menu for different builds. The rhino chassis still says I need 375 plat to unlock. Where do I find what I built? The chassis isn't something you equip, it's one of three components required to build the frame. You need to get the blueprints for the Rhino systems and the Rhino helmet and build those, then you can buy the Rhino blueprint for credits and build it by using the chassis, systems and helmet (which takes 72 hours).

They release a new weapon every single week but there's still only like 2 things we can tell them to get, and they're all really boring compared to the awesome stuff you can suddenly get all at once right around mastery level 4 or so. They should just remove the MK1 and stock Lato and have the regular Braton and Lato Vandal be the starting weapons, instead of having the starter weapons be utter garbage.

Was I just tripping out or what? Did you lose? If you lose, you get none of the loot.

Jesus Christ, who thought putting the Penta in the game was balanced or fair?  It completely breaks the game in half, it's amazing.At least make it use sniper ammo, DE! That would make more sense than giving me 545 grenades that do ~800 damage each before Split Chamber. Szurumbur posted:I've almost gathered enough credits to buy a normal Braton, but I have a question about Mastery - I understand that weapon affinity is one way to raise it, so should I still use the Mk-I Braton in order to maximize its affinity? According to the wiki, the weapon affinity is the biggest component of Mastery EXP, but would I obtain rank 8-10 without maxing many weapons? I don't really want to grind this rifle, I want to sell it and forget about it You'll need to max a quite a few weapons to reach ML7-8, but there's more than enough ingame that you'll never need to max the Mk1. The only reason you'd do that is if you want to reach ML15 or whatever the current theoretical maximum is, which is completely pointless since new stuff stops at ML8.

Conot posted:Energy is inefficient until you have mods and the levels to slot it? Holy crap batman, that almost sounds like a progression system! It's as if this "progression system" completely trivialises the energy mechanic in the first place! It doesn't take a genius to see why having a limiting mechanic that is completely nullified by a few random drops is poo poo design. Cooldowns aren't the solution either. They need to remove Energy Syphon and efficiency mods (or at least make them cap at something really low), put in a passive energy regen, and stop making every single ability cost one of three energy values instead of giving abilities different costs based on how useful/good they are.

AzureRequiem posted:So I'm not at Uranus or Sedna in the star map yet, but what exactly are invasions? Every now and then a system is earmarked for "invasion," which means that several nodes will have a special event where you pick a side (Grineer or Corpus) and can go and play a special exterminate mission where you fight alongside the faction you chose. If you do it a certain number of times (usually 5), you get a special reward once people have played the mission enough times for one side to win that conflict. There's also infestations, where one of the sides is always the Infested and the missions usually take three runs instead of five and have a lower payout.
