Total newbie, just applied to AKGOONS. Having a good time so far! I got to Venus, made the mistake of going back to Cetus to follow up on some quest email and got murdered repeatedly in the open-world area by horrible floating heads with blue lasers. I'm just going to skip that for now, I hope it's a case of "zone unlocks too early" and not "all enemies take this long to kill."

If you’re going to put rare stuff linked to the mid-tier challenges, then I would say remove the challenges that depend on having a certain amount of standing. I couldn’t do three of the 3000/5000 point missions last week because I’m a new player and couldn’t get to the required Vallis/Cetus standings, which, gently caress that.

I had a bit of trouble with the MR9 test, which I took last week. The second area can be a bit rough if you don’t have enemy sense because you can’t necessarily see where the second floor guys are, so bring a source of enemy sense. The third area is tricky until you realize the enemies can’t see the top of the columns, so just hop up there and slam down as necessary.

Good Warframe weekend! Really starting to build up a stable of powerful frames, and just this weekend alone I put 5 frames in build: Ivara (I somehow got very lucky with drop rates) Loki (thanks for playing, Loki) Oberon Prime (an extremely kind goon gifted me the part I was missing before this sucker gets vaulted) Mesa Prime (which I managed to assemble all by myself) Saryn Prime (joined a pub relic game this weekend and someone brought along the relic with the 70-plat part, so I figured out how to use the market and finished the set) The trouble is that I’m having so much fun with Nezha. I slotted in Cunning Drift, Maglev, Rush and Amalgam Serration and I can conclude that no frame should have this power. I go incredibly fast but if I hit the wrong direction I’m basically sliding off into space for five embarrassing seconds.

rotaryfun posted:Ooooh so if I have a ton of relics that could drop an item of a vaulted prime, they are still viable drops from the relic. The relic drop table itself doesn't actually change. Also if someone else brings one of those relics into a fissure, you can choose that reward (yet another reason why playing with <4 people in a fissure is throwing your relics down a hole). I've found a surprising amount of people throwing around old relics in public games - in fact just the other day I got the expensive piece of Saryn Prime from one, and I got a Helios Prime part yesterday.

My big horrible time gate right now is Forma. The slow drip is a mid-game nightmare because I’m trying to create endgame-worthy weapons and frames but I also want the dozens of weapons that require Forma to build. It’s almost like they did it on purpose! The one thing I will call out as a legitimate grievance is that Forma should not be on a 24-hour timer. Nothing should be on a 24-hour timer. It creates an unpleasant pressure to click the button the second the timer finishes or accept that it’ll keep sliding to the right until eventually you’re either staying up late or missing a day. Make it 23 hours, give people some room to breathe.

I adopted a newbie earlier when i was using an ignis wraith to clear something quick and they were like “oh my god what is that” The lesson learned is this: Ignis Wraith bps are very cheap for the small few who can conjure them on demand, so when you turn MR9 and get your free goon BP, ask for a few extra to hand out to clueless newbies.

I was extremely ready to start complaining about these Nightwave missions but to be honest the two weird elite ones aren’t that bad and you can get them done in one mission. Playing an hour is meh but assuming you get with a goon group (which I guess you’re required to) it won’t be too bad. Plus, who doesn’t need kuva?

Tuxedo Catfish posted:it's really loving bad, the sight lines are abysmal and also it's huge, like 2-3 times the size of the old, good index map and maybe half again as big as the old crappy one Really? I don't know why but they tend to pool up in that little room next to the enemy goal, so I normally have no trouble finding enemies on that map. I was playing it yesterday and a couple times there were even enough enemies around to pose a threat.

I found 19 to be extremely easy. Bring the Excal Umbra sword that makes you invisible after finishers and some kind of enemy radar and just scoot around the map killing all the enemies. There’s only like 8 of them and once they’re dead you can’t fail. Best to try it in practice first though!

el dingo posted:I need some advice I reckon. I'm at a point where I'm struggling with some void missions solo. I've got a few potatoes available to shove into a frame (volt or rhino probably) but idk if I really have the mods available to get much out of it. I've started doing nightmare missions to try and get some slightly better ones but nothing really stands out. Got a couple of good rifle and pistol mods, nothing much for frames. Unless there's a specific reason why you're going solo, don't. This will solve most of your problems. If someone's using a weapon/frame that looks cool, check out what it is on the post-battle screen and go after it. If you're curious about what mods to get, hop on the discord and ask. I don't mean to sound rude or dismissive, but I also started out expecting to go solo and it's just not really what this game is for.

Plague Star is live now, come shower yourself in Forma Also if you're new like me, note that you get more standing rewards by cooking up stuff to add to the toxin. The blueprint for the "Infested Catalyst" is available via the clan dojo bio lab and the blueprint for the "Eidolon Phylaxes" is available from Nakah, who is the standing store person for the event. So I guess you have to do one mission first before you can get the latter. Also, don't touch the boil.

Malloc Voidstar posted:Go to the clan bio lab and get Infested Catalyst and craft+equip that That's about it really, remember to equip your phylaxis/catalyst in the gear wheel before starting. Also the standing caps (prior to max level) are pretty dumb so you need to remember to rank up with Nakak every single time.

The friction is the reason it’s a problem. I normally see that in syndicate missions, where some people want to blast through and others want to medallion hunt. I also had one guy roll in to the Void capture mission that attempted to comb the entire map for Argon Crystals (I say attempted because the rest of the team extracted). It’s cool if people want to stop and smell the flowers, but if I have a limited amount of time to play and have a specific goal in mind, then how do we resolve that?

gimme the GOD drat candy posted:the solution is to simply play solo when you want to explore the map. it's quite unlikely that 3 complete strangers will cooperate, especially since so few people in wf communicate at all during missions. Playing solo is definitely an option for people that want to explore, and I often do that for medallion hunts. I just don’t like the missions (like medallion hunts) where there are such starkly different ways to play. Warframe does have a few examples of queueing for intent (Eidolon bounties, Orbs) but those are mostly on open world bosses where it’d be untenable otherwise. And yeah nobody ever communicates, and then they get mad at you for not doing what they wanted. 9 times out of 10 I’ll help people out if they just tell me what they want to do.

The old school halflife server lists were gross but extremely functional. Recruitment channel should theoretically serve the functionality of matchmaking groups with goals, but to be honest I’ve never used it. Also I had a powerful ESO curse yesterday. One time I ended up falling endlessly through a void with the conduit timer permanently at 00:00. then the next time I got a host migration at 3 seconds to the conduit, the stage restarted, but no enemies spawned. Good!

Gara is my favorite frame for mobdef and endless missions. She also scales well for sorties. I like to give her duration to make my life a bit easier, otherwise my 2 expires too quickly and it's a pain in the rear end. I also gave her Primed Flow so that I don't have to worry about her woeful energy pool. The good news is that Gara needs maybe one survival mod because lol 90% DR, so she has room for those mods. If you want more energy (and this works well with Primed Flow), try out her Spectrosiphon augment mod. It gives enemies within Gara's 3 a 50% chance to drop an energy orb.

I have won the victory over myself and now I love Garuda. She can do so much damage and keep healing! It’s just a shame that while I’m busy playing Flight of the Bumblebees on my 1-4 keys, someone else is deleting the entire room with a single Volt 4. Anyone use her for ESO? I’m worried about having to deal with Simaris’s poo poo. Spamming Garuda abilities is the point of Garuda!

The biggest gripe I have with the mobdef archwing mission is the Hallway Heroes who fly out of affinity range before eating up half the exp. Like, we’re all here for exp, so simmer down. This is also why the fluctus is the best gun: you can sit on the defense target and still have the range to blow up enemies in their hallway to your heart’s content. You can even do it out of affinity range of them!

Some content (looking at you, open world) gives really low XP for how long it takes. If you’re just leveling it up that way, it’s a really long time to lug around a Snipetron with 20ish mod space. NSO isn’t the most exciting mode to play but if your arguments are a) you want to MR every weapon, no matter how boring and b) you want to minimize your time using those boring weapons then I would suggest using NSO for the junk. On the other hand, I’m more than happy to level this Prisma Gorgon (that already has a potato and a couple forma in it) by using it.
