I don't think it's any one particular task, it's the experience in general. What I used to like about Warframe and what kept me logging in daily was having an open list of options and being able to choose what would help me increase my power and make the harder challenges more accessable. Like getting corrupted mods, or upgrading focus abilities, or unlocking fortuna stuff so I can try Baruuk or Hildryn. The point is I used to log in and thing 'what do I want to do today?

Now, I feel like I log in and am given a list of stuff I have to do or I miss out on exclusive mods and cosmetics. And that sucks. Being free of it feels good, and my point is that one should not ever feel good about being 'free' of a rewards system.

They are just nuking maps like its no ones business.

Would you believe me if I told you modern Simulor is a fraction as powerful as it once was?

It used to go through walls lol, it was pretty amazing. Tbqh I don’t think they nerfed it because it was too strong, they nerfed it because Simulor Mirage would crash PCs and consoles on defense farming missions.

Oh no, on the Switch build it was literally a maximum damage full map nuke. Something in their netcode bugged it out so if you were a client using mirage/simulor, every single spawned enemy on the entire map took millions of damage and caused the entire game to skip about 2 seconds calculating it all.

I'm told they unfucked it in the new PoE build, at least.

Is there a way to get free Warframe spot? Like as a reward for a quest or something? I looked at the pricing and everything is ridiculously expensive (in my mind). I fudged my starting 50 plat by mistake and only bought 1 extra warframe spot. I only have 3 now and already 2 warframe. I have almost all the mat for a 3rd one, but after that, I don't want to sell warframes to create new ones.

Also can I get an invite to the ps4 clan? My psn is Soda_Pepinski. Thanks

Thumpers are probably better farmed with invisibility of some form so they're not moving so much. I may try it with Loki + Itzal later today. Nova would be good too. Prioritizing those alert birds they start to emit at the halfway health mark makes it a lot quieter.

They drop quite a lot of useful loot, animal parts and gems, but they're sadly not quite the standing pinatas that Exploiter Orb is for both OV standings. The latter drops a Lazulite Toroid worth 12,000 VS standing and a couple dozen gems worth 1000 SU standing each. Thumpers drop about 8 nysts a run and that's with a booster, worth 400 standing each. Thumpers are way faster to run than Exploiter, so it's not a fair comparison anyways.

Still a good and useful fight if you don't for eg want to go fishing for murkray livers and stuff like that.

They’re the only place the new fists drop if you don’t want to spend 150 plat on them. 2.5% chance for the T2 thumper, 5% for the T3 thumper, doesn’t drop off the T1 at all.

Might as well get all of the mods, a lot of builds seem to be set on having all four.

Does the Grinlock mod from syndacates count for the Prisma versions?

I have no idea how Discord works, and the last time I was given a discord to add to the OP I got a bunch of posts saying it had expired or something, so no idea. I think most people use the PS4 community Warframe Goons and the phone app.

Motion control makes aiming much easier on both those consoles. Semi auto can be tough still but there are so many good beam, AOE, full auto guns in this game that I didn't find controller aiming to be the chore it usually is for me.

Depends on the gun too for semis. Snipers like Rubico Prime feel great, but RIP Tiberon Prime since it needs too many shots to get the job done.

For weapons, Atomos, Amphrex, Synoid Simulor, explosives if you don’t mind self killing all the time, Sonicor, any long melee weapon.
