I started playing this recently and have made it to earth. Whats the best way to transition to a new primary weapon? My Braton feels like an automatic pea shooter. e: I should mention I'm building a Rhino. I found some of the blueprints and it looks neat.

hexic posted:The Karak doesn't require a mastery rank so you can build that any time you want and it's a pretty solid weapon. If you're already mastery rank 2, you can also build the Boltor. Both are pretty solid rifles and I used my Boltor up until I could build a Soma with no problems. Make sure to get a spare Serration mod from someone in the clan though. I finished up my Karak, the 24 hour build time was painful. It's funny how a unmodded Karak feels about 3 times as strong as my level 30 MK1-Braton.

How come when I hit a helmet nerd with this awesome flourishy melee technique, that was probably passed down through generations of Tenno martial arts masters, he doesn't even flinch, but when a helmet nerd kabonks me with his jellyfish launcher I go staggering for 12 minutes.

Are the Akimbo versions of weapons generally worth upgrading to? Also, how do I get that drat serration mod. I have all the other flat +% damage mods, but that one won't drop.

The login rewards are hilariously inconsistent. Yesterday I got 50% off my next platinum purchase, which could save me up to $50 (I'm not going to buy that much, but still). Today I got 2400 exp on my primary weapon.

Daric posted:I've just started playing this game. I'm using the Volt frame and the basic primary gun. What's the next gun/bow I should look to move to after the first rifle? I have 30,000 of whatever the non-platinum money is called so there's a few things I can get the blueprints for. The Braton can be bought for, I think, 25k credits and is a strictly better version of the starting gun. The Karak is a good general purpose rifle, but you need to buy the blueprints and build it, rather than just buying it outright, so it will take you at least 24 hours to get. I think Paris/Paris Prime are generally considered the best bows.

Ugh, the last mission of the Inaros quest was a turbobitch to solo. The fight wasn't hard so much as it was a massive bullet sponge. Thankfully the door to the tomb didn't actually close so I was able to run back through the level (Grineer had all despawned unfortunately) and open crates for ammo. If not for that I would have had to just hide in a corner waiting for my newly unlocked focus to recharge so I could petrify then beat on him in melee for a bit. Maybe playing as Oberon was less than helpful. Speaking of foci, what's the best way to use your first lens? I've got a Saryn Prime (first prime frame!) cooking so I was thinking of putting it on her. PathAsc posted:I love volt, but when they removed the bonus range from shield it was pretty dumb imo. Of course goatlord waifu needs love the most. His beastmaster passive is surprisingly useful on derelict survival!

sushibandit posted:Focus is really dumb and useless except for the passive "rest of the mission" buff after you use its power once. Zenurik is the only universal tree, because 4 energy per second for the rest of the mission is good on everything. Yeah, that's the impression I got after looking at the trees. Really wish I had done that before picking but I had no idea the choice was coming up, or what it was.

You're probably better off just farming that tier of relic, opening a ton and hoping other people brought the specific one you're looking for. That said, if you really want to farm a specific relic look for a mission that ahs it in it's A rotation rewards rather than B or C.

What's up with those common tier +status mods? It's like they originally intended them to be additive but changed their minds and made them multiplicative. 7 drain for +15% status is mindbogglingly awful.

Washout posted:Do you like boar prime and kohm and build for status chance? If not with shotguns which guns do you build for status? Buy the one for the gun you like to build for status... If plat cost down the road is a consideration the pistol and melee will shoot up to 150 again in a month but rifle and shotgun top out at 70 (you can farm them in naglar but I don't recommend it for sanities sake). I'd like a boar prime but it sounds like it was vaulted years ago so what are the odds I'll ever get one. I've been using a Hek which super owns and am considering making it my first catalyzed/formaed weapon, but I hear the Vaykor Hek is even better and I'm not too far from getting that.

Is there ever a reason to refine relics to anything other then radiant? I guess if you have an arbitrarily large amount of relics and free time one of the lower tiers might be a more efficient use of void traces.ElegantFugue posted:Toss the potato in your Hek. The VayHek takes a while to get up to full speed anyway, you'll find another potato before you start getting maxed out Primed mods to push the VayHek to its limits. I decided to just blow all my stuff on making my Hek awesomer so I used my potato and bought that mod. It's pretty amazing, completely trivializes that Octavia mission I was having trouble with. Sentients? not when I'm done with them  I will say I'm kind of annoyed that primed point blank is a thing that a) I don't have and b) exists at all. Primed Reach is pretty rad though, it got here just as I was finishing my Orthos Prime too.

His 2 needs every number associated with it multiplied by, like, 3 or something. I liked him but his 1 seems like it's basically a single target version of his 4, unless I'm missing something.

I'm having not so great luck with Rivens. My first was increased crit chance and status chance at the expense of fire rate... for the Gorgon. My second increases cold, electric and viral damage for the Azima, which sounds pretty cool. So I look up Azima and it turns out I have to login 80 more days before I can get one

RPATDO_LAMD posted:While you're still going through the star chart, you shouldn't worry too hard about leveling new stuff / grinding MR, and you definitely shouoldn't put lots of effort into leveling weapons you hate just to get them off the checklist, because right now you're doing it the slow way. Man I just leveled the bolto/akbolto/akjagara for the mastery points and holy moley what a crappy weapon. It's basically a peashooter with the gimmick of not being hitscan. The Akjagara seemed verging on usable, at least. But yeah, definitely don't level lovely weapons purely for MR until you're at least endgame-ish.

kalam posted:Can you even do the minigame solely to hit rank 1? You can only get necrilex lures but the son token trades all require additional animal captures which aren't necrilex. There are animals just roaming around that you can tranq without the lures, so you can get tags from those. I'm waiting for someone more motivated than I am to make a guide because I spent like 10-15 minutes on it to earn around a 1/4 of a token and you need 5.

Basically you trade resources associated with the family member for their tokens: Otak: Mining Stuff Daughter: Fish Bits (you get these by having her cut the fish so it's sort of a double trade in) Son: Conservation Tags  Father: Random crapola you get from fighting in the drift Mother: Bounties (you just get these, no trade ins required) Grandmother: Other Tokens The trade ins are kind of like Ticker in that they are random and refresh every so often. You then trade tokens to grandmother for rep, and some rank ups also require tokens. The harder to acquire tokens (like Son) are worth more rep but you'll probably just use mother tokens for rep since you easily get a buttload of them from bounties.

DelphiAegis posted:I was gonna say, that doesn't sound right for Rank2.

Johnny Joestar posted:the grandma tokens are also generally the most worth it, rep-wise, so other than trading them in for her specific weird stuff that's their main use I wouldn't trade any of the son tokens in for grandmother tokens, but the others are probably worth it if you have the opportunity.

Does anyone know how to actually get that "upload all the data" bounty bonus objective? There's no real indication as to what the upload rate is affected by. The Grineer one also seems really tough unless you have volt or revenant or something constantly killing everything the instant it pops up.

Has anyone found a way to get Seriglass Shards other than buying them for 20 grandmother tokens? There are at least 2 father blueprints and the bounty blueprint that require them so maybe save your grandmother tokens if you're interested in crafting them.

Dreadwroth2 posted:Ok I was probably overreacting to the tokens, after actually poking around it seems like I mostly want Granmaw's tokens for maximum rep gains. You can get some sort of throwing knife blueprint that has some bonus, I forget what, when used by Xaku from the tier 5/steel path bounties. Incidentally it requires a resource which I think is only obtainable by trading in 20 grandma tokens so if you're interested maybe don't blow them on rep. e: actually it's a war fan melee that I guess shoots daggers or something.

Dareon posted:Looking at how to obtain/build Xaku, and I feel like they did it a slight disservice. As Xaku is the remains of three other warframes, it would have made sense if the parts were named after those warframes, or you accumulated fragments of these frames that could be stitched into Xaku parts. Virtually no difference in acquisition, but much more flavorful. They definitely should have just made it like Equinox except with 3 frames instead of 2.

Avynte posted:like shark said, absolutely save your grandmother tokens to build the weapons. if you've got a short time to play and want to hit rep cap for the day, run a mother bounty or two and you'll have plenty of tokens to turn in. for daughter / son, just do the bare minimum for rank up requirements then specifically chase the stuff you want after. vaults are going through all kinds of horrible buginess and revisions, so i won't try to touch on optimal mech part farming and nekraloid rankups. Yeah, a tier 5 bounty gives somewhere around 100 tokens if you get the bonuses so that's already better than SU or Ostron bounties without converting to grandma tokens. Simply getting rep for these guys isn't really a problem. Jobbo_Fett posted:Spent some time farming conservation for Son tokens just for the rank up requirement to drop from 10 to 1. The conservation poo poo is unenjoyable for me no matter the pace I do it at, so I figured I'd just get it over with. The tokens ended up not even being a problem for me, I had something like 40 of the things by the time I finally got the 5 bird tags. I ended up being slow enough for them to remove the requirement for tier one and reduce the requirement for tier 3 so more grandma tokens I guess

Mailer posted:The weak T3 bounty you need to run for that particular bond has a 20%+12.5%+12.5% chance. This is not what I would classify as impossibly rare, even if you've been incredibly unlucky. Ticker is useful as a bonus and a way to convert unneeded cash and mats into rep but it not required. You will get those bonds, along with a nice chunk of rep and relics, long before you get past the current rank 3 Entrati wall. I was grinding standing to the daily limit for a week on the first 2 stages of tier 3 bounties trying to get those and I still ended up getting the majority of the ones I needed from Ticker. Yeah that was probably bad luck on my part but hey plenty of people have bad luck at this stuff.

Are people actually finding scintillant in vaults now? I found zero after doing 5-10 triple vault runs and one after doing 3 t2 bounties. The apparent rarity in vaults makes it unclear if I'm doing it wrong and missing it, it's bugged somehow, or it's just that rare.
