That's still the case. Nothing has changed with World On Fire.

Trinity's Blessing/Link combo with castanas is a World On Fire that works.

There's no bad frame for doing damage besides the Nekros :colbert:

That said, blade storm is pretty cathartic when you have a kill challenge. Just watch as that kill counter number goes up and up...

Is the main goon clan doing alliance invites? Also is there a cap on how many random one man goon clans can be in the alliance? If not I'd like it if my clan "The Lords of Uranus" could be a part of it :D

Ogris takes too long. Castanas have a crazy ROF and plenty of damage, use those and never have to see an enemy again.

Ogris has to deal with shot charge and reload, Penta has to deal with reload, Castanas doesn't have to deal with either. You chuck them out fast, and they reload fast just like other throwing weapons.

I can't even Desecrate decently when Denzine's doing this with his extreme range Trinity, it's ridiculous. Strap on the old Mk-1, Lato and Skana, and just chill there while they suck up XP.

I had this exact issue. Both times I killed all the mobs and the survival timed out without completing the mission. Leaving me standing around the void waiting for a completion.

Until, I didn't kill off all the mobs right away. If you kill the waves too quick I think the spawns bug out and the game doesn't recognize that you completed it.

You're both rather lucky apparently, then. It's A Thing on the forums right now, amongst rail and melee whining of course.

What's the goto way to grind up to rank six, by the way? Nothing but leveling up (new) guns and clearing sectors?

The majority is gonna be weapons, yeah. If you've already got a serious business gun or two that you have maxed out (as in rank 30, not necessarily fully modded and forma'd several times), just make stuff that looks/sounds fun and go nuts.

Don't forget that getting a new frame to 30 the first time will also provide a good chunk of mastery (twice as much as a weapon).

Frames levels count for twice as much as weapons when ranking up.

It bugged out for me 3 times, and then the 4th time I unequipped my sentinel and just ran around without attacking any enemies and it worked. The 3rd time I tried running around but left my sentinel equipped, and it still failed. Whether my actions had anything to do with anything is anyone's guess.

Sentinels are also good for mastery. You get to level the equivalent of another frame and weapon alongside your actual ones.

Maybe the bug is triggered by killing everything. I just stood in the centre and meleed anything that came at me, but when the timer ran out I still had spawns alive

I had the rank 4 test bug the hell out as well, then the 2nd attempt worked fine with no changes to approach. It seems to arbitrarily fail, just like things with a 24h cooldown should probably be prone to!

Yeah, it's one of the sectors in Venus. Dark Sectors are pretty cool when there's no contesting going on, but as soon as there is they totally go to poo poo due to DE not even remotely thinking things through. Shame.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think on the livestream they said a challenger HAD to kill the other rail otherwise the incumbent wins automatically (minus whatever damage you did that they have to repair) to prevent people from just dumping rails or some other reason that was really dumb. I'll try and find it.

Only warlords of alliance clans can place alliance rails, i.e., clan leaders and not people who stay up till 2am like me and Denzine. The window is also ridiculously and incredibly short; even if you click it as soon as it's available to be placed and click through the dialogs as fast as you can, it still might not deploy.

If this is true, basically nobody would ever lose their rails.

Yeah, I'm aware of the tiny window and the small amount of people who can actually use it. And yes, it's a Clan, not an Alliance Rail. Me and a mate stopped farming for the Katana stance (that never seems to drop anyway) and started grinding for the Goon rail.

Sadly, no. That generic stuff can still be kind of funny when you run a mission for the opposing clan and start sending messages to yourself, though.

There is a promo going on right now. I think its kinda crappy though. Buy 170 plat for 10.49 through paypal and get a free Yomo Syandana. 170 plat is that price normally anyways and I'm not sure if the plat discount works with this deal or not.

Nope, you only have to run it enough to damage the other's rail more then they damage yours. They still need to lower the maximum hp because hardly anybody is going to drain the HP down to 0

For those who think rhino or rhino prime is a god and can't be killed have never ran nightmare modes on Pluto much or other outer planets. I can say from experience I hate them but they did make it possible for me to run around surviving a lot better because they are so painful. By the time you get off a stomp in the open the iron skin is gone and so is some of your hp. If you think the game has no more challenge for you because you are rank 14 or finally done leveling the crappy guns to hit 15. Do some nightmare modes, challenge yourself to survive a full run without dying in one of the outer planets. Normally I have no issue running though nodes with no issue, but nightmare mode made me take a second look at how I play. I felt like I first started again and had my rear end handed to me. I started taking cover to roar+stomp instead of standing in the middle of a crowd. Started strafing more and rolling to get out of their line of site to reload or let shields regen and reapply iron skin. T3 is a joke to m anymore. Loki+galatine chop chop chop no real challenge. Nightmare.... Ugh I lost 2 lives to solo Pluto nightmare today for a mod alert I already had for a spy mission. It really brings back the challenge, frustration and sometimes fun back into the game. And it makes it a lot easier to grind out crappy weapons that much easier when just running as valkyr who only has 150 shield to never need to use my ult till 25mins.

Also for those who's melee breaks(can't swing), jump into a hole a few times to reset it. This also works for the carrier if he feels like he doesn't want to pick anything up.
