Crafted chamber recipes are gone, fyi, might want to hang on to them and use sparingly. I couldn't find it last night and just saw a redpost about it. Major bummer, thankfully I have hundreds stockpiled.
Are they gone for good? I saw a ton of locked recipes in the printer for all sorts of new chamber types. Do you have a link to the post?

That reminds me, I need to farm BWA for some more of those amazing Necro weapons and hope I get a few secondaries like my beloved Burst Rifle. I hope they're still prenerf.

You start earning perk points at level 10. The OP describes perks briefly. Once you get points, go to a battleframe garage and click the Perks tab. Then click the Edit Perks button.

Is anyone else going firecat first for research? Now that we can trade items, was wondering if we should coordinate research\manufacture?

We should probably keep it in the OP or something.

I've got purple level 40 in Bio-Crossbows, Recluse Abilities, and Air Sprint Cores. Probably doing Biotech HKMs, Dragonfly abilities and Bio-Rifles next if nobody else is going for those.

That will only happen until your time pool is exhausted. All the time you put into the system before was kept so you have a huge pool of time that is being put toward research. Once that is gone the actual times will start applying.

So no not going to wipe it.

I really hope they fix Ares missions spawning soon, running between the ones at Shanty town was the best but now with the spawns so few and far between my drive to grind has gone down quite a bit. Really need to join Goons to find people to play with.

There's a level 33-34 Ares mission that respawns around 20-30 seconds after it's finished in Sertao. Just west of The Nest. It's even got a mostly fantastic layout with a shortcut right to the end room from the first room. Look for a hole you can drop down with a jump pad at the bottom. Downside? If the mission rolls a group bomb you are hosed. Chosen density gets absurd and the layout is really long if you're not taking the shortcut.

You do get assigned to a team but you don't get teamed up. I've seen other friendly players but few and far between. Same goes for enemies though, barely anyone there.

The market is still filling up as people try to figure it out. If you're wanting a permanent one, it may be quite a wait but I keep getting them from copper vending tokens so at least the single use versions are plentiful. In the mean time, I'm dumping things on the market while I have 16 slots and no fucks to give.

I hope that's true. I want to go check it out. I need titanium and uranium for crafting but I'm not finding any in DT yet until it gets pushed back. I have enough tungsten to choke a camel though.

Are you sure you mean hoverpads and not glider pads? I've never seen a one-time use hoverpad, and I've already got a permanent glider pad.

Regardless, I have to say this new market is a pretty awesome improvement.

Titanium spawns all over in Sertao. Uranium does not. Supposedly uranium will only spawn in the level 40 biomes in Devil's Tusk. Which is kind of odd because titanium spawns wherever the gently caress it wants in Sertao.

Oh good, I thought it was just me unable to log in until I checked the official forums. Looks like it's going to be one of those nights. Oh well. I probably would have wound up thumping in Sertao for some titanium after we did the missions.

I'm really excited to run the new missions with you assholes. I hope things settle down soon so we can get everyone caught up and start doing it. Power Grab is minimum level 18, Risky Business is 21, and BWA is now 24. If you're close to 24 make sure you do the first 5 storyline missions so we can get you through the others. The loot in BWA is amazing for its level.

Good news! It's now built into the default UI so you have a little readout of how many turrets you have up and how damaged they are.

Bad news... They last 120 seconds by default and are more fragile than before.

Bottom line: If your turret(s) aren't on cooldown, it's time to place another.

Exactly this. I don't think the addons have been adapted yet since the one I have still shows the old timer of 30/10 minutes but it has a bar for every turret so it may be worth getting anyway. Search for deployable helper on the forums.

If anyone else is coordinating what to research, I've thrown mine into Nighthawk Sniper Rifles, so I have level 40 epic ones ready to rock!

But of course this requires uranium so.... that might be a while yet getting produced!

I really love the Arsenal too, but man, I really hate that Combat Shotgun ability. So useless.

For the record, I have everything in the General tree researched, I have uncommon weapon modules for level 27+, and the Tigerclaw Fusion cannon (level 40 epic).

I'm working on uncommon ability modules for level 27+ right now.

Yeah, it's subpar. I'm only like level 8 now so not sure if I'll replace it with something else? The AoE long-range laser gun ability is the loving best, it's so badass and fun and good.
