One time, I did a thing.

I finally ran the event last night... something kept killing me even though I was quite t distance from !Lephantis, wasn't in a green cloud, and didn't see any infested close by. Particularly when trying to revive fallen pubbies.

Any ideas?

I have no idea. Maybe you got sniped by a ballista from that one tower that's near the boil? Or you got smacked by something with tox damage applied from a toxic ancient aura.

edit: I probably should have refreshed before posting.

Pubbies try to stand on the instadeath plague meteor.
Pubbies instantly die.
gaj70 walks onto the instadeath plague meteor to revive the pubbies.
gaj70 instantly dies.
Nobody at DE implements any visual or sound effects to show players that the instadeath plague meteor is killing them.

Post? What post? Oh wow.
I had nothing to do with THAT.
They also showed off one of the upcoming Eidolon variations that they called an S-Class:



Much more aggressive and they've worked some counters to common player tactics used against the Teralyst into him. Also he's much bigger, and every step will now knock down everyone close by.

Also the Grineer Ghouls that have been shown several times are now functioning on the plains in their demo, so expect those soon, including the return of the Sawman and a heavy guy equipped with twin flamethrowers and drills.

Tenno pump action shotgun coming very soon.

Also confirmed is that next year, they're definitely shipping the new Sawman's giant, two handed buzz-saw as a melee weapon for our use.



Including this little feature of it:

They're going to be overhauling all the Companions and Sentinels too to even out their performance and give them more definitive roles.

That timer is there when the mission drags on too long, which pairs nicely with Lvl 100 Sortie Elemental Resist Lephantis: the ultimate HP sponge.

That is 100% why I quit the game the first time. When 3 people went in with good weapons and we timed out, I felt like the game didn't respect my time. Yet here I am, stuck in once more.

Baro, and primed mods especially are late game resource sinks. They are totally unnecessary to for a normal player. But they make numbers bigger, and that's like catnip for the Warframe 1%

Is that correct? E.g., if you were a newbie with both continuity and primed continuity, wouldn't you be better off (only) maxing out the primed version?

If you're a newbie with with 40,920 endo and 1.97 million credits to max one mod you're probably not a newbie.

For comparison it costs 930 endo and 44,919 credits to max normal continuity.

To get Primed Continuity to the same bonus level as a max level non-primed continuity, it would only cost 33% more: 1240 endo and 59,892 credits. Of course each additional level will double the cost (like with all mods), so getting to rank 5 is cheap but getting to rank 10 is ludicriously expensive.

If you somehow have such tremendously bad luck that you don't end end up finding Continuity until after buying Primed Continuity from Baro, there is no real reason to level the vanilla mod to rank 5 over the primed mod.

Fair enough. But the price for maxing regular continuity is pocket change for all but the newest of new players, and it has a 100% drop rate from the dojo. To even get prime you need 350 ducats and 110,000 credits. There is no logical reason to get the primed version first.

Don't worry about being wasteful, especially with something that small.

I've been play a fair bit the last week or so after leaving the game years ago(back when keys were a thing, not this strange relic system) and my god they've added a lot of stuff. What's the best way to buy and sell items? I'm pretty close to having a few of those vaulted prime suits and I probably have some good stuff to sell.

Also the menu system is kind of annoying unless I'm missing something. Is there no way to easily change suits/weapons from the nav screen?

Be aware at the lower ranks of primed regen still only give your sentinel x1 revive, so you will have to shell out seriously to increase it to x3. I definitely bought one because dead sentinels mean I can't hoover mana orbs through walls and that make me sad, but like most primed mods they are just there as a long term project to keep you playing.

Also keep in mind that there is no good reason to take Primed Regen to max rank. You get the third revive at rank 9, so the only thing rank 10 gets you is the sentinel reviving with 5% more hp. Skipping that rank saves you a cool ~900,000 credits and ~20,000 endo.

Just watching the Dev Stream and Damage 3.0 (maybe just 2.5?) is coming, probably with the release of the Chora Warframe, as she can transform to change her base damage type.

Slash was a standout with the scaling, so Puncture and Impact were left in the dust. Procs for the base ones (Slash, Puncture, Impact) are now all going to scale the same on a curve that scales up to 90% effectiveness based on the weapon's damage numbers. So a powerful Slash weapon will get a powerful Slash proc, but much less effective (or non-existent) procs of the other types. To me, that also sounds like you're going to have to actually mod for those damage types to get the full effectiveness out of them.

Impact is getting changes in that as the effect becomes more powerful it will transition from a stagger into a full ragdoll with scaling power. Blast is also probably getting this treatment. Personally I'd prefer a minor explosion on proc.

Other Elementals also being looked at. As is the effects of 100% status scaling on weapons and how it all interacts.

Best part of the stream so far:

Keep watching for just after this bit, because they show off the Fans again that they totally forgot they were developing in lieu of a Sepiroth Katana.

Is there any way to trigger a remote logout? I was a dummy and I think I managed to leave Warframe up in the background when travelling away, which prevents the computer from going into real sleep mode even when selecting choosing Sleep from the power settings. Now Steam won't let me login through the laptop and Baro will leave and deny me my Primed Fever Strike forever!!
