I've never bothered even starting to think about farming for Ash since it seemed like such an insufferable grind. Will it be halfway feasible, now?

Elevate is a good arcane. Husk is also good, though generally you'll only use it for dolons. Shraksun is a decent scaffold if you don't have/want to use the 7 scaffold.

hey, i'm largely a solo-only player but i feel like i've hit a soft progression wall (stuff in the zariman is just a bit too hard for me) so i started looking up builds online and stuff and man a ton of them sure use adaptation and it sure looks like it would be helpful but that seems wayyyy out of my reach. i've resolved myself to break my solo-only credo to buy one but because of immense anxiety i don't know how to actually ... do that. what are the trading protocols? i know there's a market site but i have no idea how to use it or what i should do. cheers.

open up the site, search for adaptation, pick the listing you want based on price/rank, click the little button to the right that will copy a whisper into your clipboard, send the message in game. then the guy should invite you, you go to their dojo, they initiate a trade, you click a little trade space and put in the required amount of plat. thats about it. no words really need to be said beyond the initial copy pasted message. oh and you have to have 2 factor auth set up on your account or you cant trade at all.

There are generally 2 ways to die in warframe: 1) Single hit damage that wipes you 100-0 (when your shield gate is already broken) 2) Standing and fighting You're a space turbo-ninja on steroids. What's better than a slowly-stacking DR that makes you take less damage? Taking no damage as you fly 200ft away in a single bound. Adaptation is a niche pick that really only has a couple of good uses, youtubers just love it because.. number bigger. They also test the validity of their builds in multi-hour survival modes and wouldn't you know it, that's adaptations niche. If nothing else to prevent RSI. Rolling guard, and abusing shield gating, will let you survive much more burst damage, which is what gets you killed in the AOTZ bounties. RG also clears all status effects. The mag proc sucking your energy, the viral or slash procs chunking you down, get removed. As a single-slot mod to increase survivability, there is none better. Unfortunately, rolling guard is acquired in the same way (arbitrations). Fortunately, goons have spares of those too. There's YT tutorials on how to use rolling guard along with a decaying key to create huge amounts of i(nvulnerability) frames to avoid damage. i-frames prevent damage and status procs, which the eximus change has made more important. Brief version: - shields break. You are invulnerable to damage for 3s from shield gating. - Roll(ing guard) to extend invulnerabilty and remove procs - Get away from danger - Your shields start regen - If they break here, you get 0.6s invuln only, and probably have RG on cooldown. However, - Your crippled shields will be at full again very quickly, sometimes within 3s. When shields hit or exceed 100%, you regain the 3s gate. - go back to 1 n.b. if you have Protea, or ever see her shield satellites from an ally, use and abuse them. They instantly grant shield (which may be over your 100% if she's specced for strength), grant a magic 2s invulnerability to every shield-break if one is attached and there's no cooldown in picking them up.

Rolling Guard is nice and helps a lot but shield gate abuse is more about energy -> shield conversion mods, Brief Respite + the Augur set. The whole point of running a decaying dragon key is to lower your max shield value enough that you can max out your shields using a single ability cast, which usually also requires you to run negative efficiency and potentially requires you to infuse a specific Helminth ability that has the right cost and is easy to spam. Molt is a very good option because it casts instantly. Running the Augur pistol mods on a "stat stick" type of pistol is also helpful for increasing the shield conversion rate. You want to do the math and ensure that the modified energy cost of one or two casts of an ability you can easily spam will convert into enough shields to fully replenish your modified max shields. And then make sure you have enough energy generation available keep up with the rate at which you're triggering your shield gate. Also CC is just as important as shield gating when fighting enemies that can instakill you, and something you want to prioritize in a shield gate build. But if it isn't already clear shield gate abuse is a really tedious mechanic and completely unnecessary for the vast majority of the game. Every frame apart from Gyre should be able to survive Zariman bounties and base Steel Path without it. The only place in the game that rewards you for fighting very high level enemies is deep rotations of Void Cascade and that's the only place I'd recommend considering a shield gate abuse setup and even then I prefer to run an invis frame (Wisp) instead. Also shield gate invincibility lasts 1.33 seconds the first time it breaks after a full replenish and .33 seconds otherwise. It only goes to 3 seconds with Hildryn or Protea buffs. The general survivability advice I'd give is to have multiple layers of stuff working in your favor. Move constantly. Break line of sight and kill stuff around corners with AoE. Swap into operator and turn invincible. Use Panzer Vulpaphyla with Synth Deconstruct. Infuse a CC ability or Condemn/Pillage for on demand overshields. Defense arcanes can be great on specific frames. Guardian + Combat Discipline and any source of reliable healing works well. If you already have some generic damage resist you can run Aegis for regular 12s bursts of invincibility. Acquiring a greater variety of tools and learning to use them has made more of an impact for me than any specific mod or mod setup. Adaptation is good on frames that are already tanky and rely on shields more than armor, mainly Baruuk and Gara. Pubbie builds running it for general purpose defense probably aren't going to hold up that well. And the most important thing to keep in mind is that survivability isn't an issue if you instantly kill everything as soon as it appears on the minimap. It's easier to mod a weapon to deal 2 million damage than it is to mod a warframe to survive 50,000 damage. If you start dying often, you'll probably gain more safety by investing in offense and playing on an empty map than by investing in defense.

yeah conditional invulnerability is really good but it's also a gigantic pain in the rear end. most of the time when i'm building frames -- even for Steel Path Zariman or whatever -- I just go for as much passive, always-on (or 99% uptime, at least) EHP as i can possibly get. this means neither Adaptation (which is insanely unreliable against the most dangerous threats) or shield gating / rolling guard (which requires constant vigilance and one slip-up means you're dead) you can get a ton of mileage out of flat armor on everyone (available from a bunch of different arcanes or, for some builds, from Health Conversion), percentage-based armor on frames that already have a very large base amount, Quick Thinking + Primed Flow on normally squishy frames with large energy pools (nb: also requires Primed Sure-Footed or Unairu focus school to prevent getting stagger-locked), and however many umbral mods are useful for that particular frame and, of course, Gloom, which honestly is almost enough to protect you from everything all by itself but for the rare CC-immune enemy Tuxedo Catfish fucked around with this message at 04:52 on Aug 25, 2022 |

Yeah, that's basically my style, too. If it's too complicated, I lose track in all the chaos. I have all the conditional Power Strength junk stacked up on my Caliban and it's such a pain in the rear end to keep recasting Empower AND getting status effects AND picking up energy for Energy Conversion, etc.

they're worth it occasionally for stuff like banshee's weak point damage multiplier or mirage, just, like, in general (Mirage has Eclipse i guess, but Eclipse makes Adaptation look like Vitality as far as reliability goes)
