Get an ignis or sonicor via the dojo (gently caress it get both), ask in clanchat for taxis to get the mats and credits. The slap that reactor on whichever one you like more. Feel free to beg for better damage mods and slots or whatever else you might need.

I would suggest sonicor for a new player takes way less forma like just one to be good to the end of the star chart compared to ignis which takes like 6

Does anyone have a video of mesa's old 360 in action? Was there more transition between poses then? Or was she always snapping to a new pose every time she fires like she does now?

Always snapping to a new pose like now, but even more ridiculous. Since you could fire on so many enemies at the same time it was just constant top speed flailing

She also has a bunch of poses for firing off to her left or right, or firing behind her, that you never see anymore

Oh, and I can't overstate how useful ember with an ignis is for solo syndicate missions. Ember with Streamline and Fleeting Expertise can run her 4 non-stop. Put an intensify (and when you can grab an Energy Conversion mod from simaris, but it isn't absolutely needed). Vitality for just in case and now you have an afk frame. You can search for medallions and scan plants or explore in peace. No need to worry about being visible, cause everything but the toughest enemies on the highest level missions will fall over dead before they can do anything. Bum Firequake off a goon and you will be invincible.

https://youtu.be/PzNpkOUUSUQ or just search YouTube for "Warframe old message". Back in the day I was playing old message and my team was in a large orokin room. The double layer one with the big tree growing out of the basement. I'm on the bottom floor and go peacemaker to cover a friend getting swarmed across the room. Then a corrupted napalm drops down next to me and all I do is hold left click praying it prioritized this napalm 4meters away over the group 30 meters across the room.

Because old Mesa was cool. Peacemaker saved my friend but the napalm dropped me before peacemaker got around to him.

I won't say the new is better than the old, but there is a lot less chance of dumb Warframe stuff happening now that I have a finer control over peacemaker. Which is a loss to the game if you ask me.

You can make status ignus to clear the star chart and that only takes like 2.

My favorite star chart decimating weapon is the Atomos, but it probably has an MR requirement. You point at one thing and all the things die.

You always have to point. The initial size is about one screen so if you can see stuff it's getting blasted.

Well, it is one screen if you don't run range. Apparently the size is effected by your range stat, but range doesn't effect mesa's range on anything worthwhile so it's a pointless mesa stat.

They nerfed that at some point. You can still use exalted weapons in foo-only missions but if your actual weapon is banned then you don't get the effects of any of its mods on your peacemaker/lightsaber/etc, meaning it'll do incredibly terrible damage.

PC gets all the major content updates a good deal earlier since they don't have to go through Sony/MS cert. You have your choice of KB/M vs Gamepad I guess and last but not least the economy when it comes to premium currency is quite a bit different between console and PC.

PC is recommended but there are minor benefits to console. You can get a number of cosmetic items without paying money (by trading for the premium currency) that are only available on PC for real money. You also get to see what’s going to be good or lovely in advance on console and plan with a few weeks of lead time. That’s mostly metagame stuff though, the game itself is undoubtedly better if you have a nice computer.

Edit: buying premium currency is cheaper on PC though.

Just to give you peace of mind, that's by far the worst node in the game and that mission type never turns up anywhere else.

I've only played new mesa and see a few poses like that all the time. Sometimes she'll even turn away from a target to do it. Spin your camera around while your 4 is active and it's pretty much the same effect*

Next time I log in, I'm going to get a pile of 3-day boosters. I want to delay that until next weekend. I was going to just not play the game during the week, however, I just started building the parts for Nekros Prime. I'd like to get that building once the parts are done. Can I just leave Warframe running to avoid the login?

As long as you don't leave your ship. If you leave for any reason (mission, Cetus, relay, dojo), the login reward will kick off the moment you come back.

Just going to warn you that doggos and cattes aren't super good while also having an upkeep cost that is very detrimental to newer players. So while you can totally do the quest, I'd always recommend a Sentinel to newer players.
