Cowcaster posted:

Yeah, the list in the original post could probably be updated to put slots in a tier above "good" for spending platinum on. Orokin Catalysts/Reactors, Forma, and Sentinels may be rare enough to get that spending platinum on them isn't a bad idea, but slots cannot be gotten in any other way.

You can get them from weapon event rewards, but those arent very common.

Ember isn't as bad as he makes it out to be, the new version of WoF has pillars of flame that will shoot up and they can hit more than one thing at a time.

That's how it LOOKS like it should work, but do not be deceived by the new effects. WoF is one target, no AOE. It ticks fast and cycles targets fast if you're killing trash, making it look like a lot of poo poo's dying all at once, but get some harder mobs and it's very distinctly single target, no AOE. Pluto's right there, try it. The nontarget eruptions going on around you are meaningless razzle-dazzle, they do nothing.

Well poo poo.

Update 12.3.0: The Grustrag Three

Zoc5ITJ.jpg

Additions:

Vem Tabook, Shik Tal and Leekter. Remember their names, Tenno. They may be coming for you!

Vay Hek has warned that any Tenno supporting the Corpus during invasions will face consequences; we now know what those consequences are. Riddled with mutation, violent tendencies and the urge to kill, these Grineer defects - otherwise known as The Grustrag Three - pose a high level threat. They have been detected in the Solar System and have been taking notice of Tenno support for Corpus during invasions. If it is the Brakk you seek, the Grustrag Three you must defeat.

Tenno Reinforcement:

- Marelok! Grineer Lever Action Secondary weapon! Find it in Clan Tech or the Market today.

- Forest Level expansion!

Cosmetic Additions:

- 4x Immortal Skins: Nekros, Valkyr, Oberon, and Ember!
- Twilight Colour Picker!

Other Additions:

- New Hyena information hooked up in Codex.
- New ambient sounds added to the Forest Levels!
- Level up effect now uses energy colour!

Changes:

- Adjusted Timing to show Castanas in hand sooner after reload is complete.
- Show �The Void�, �The Derelicts� and �Dojo� in the Star Chart if players have the required keys.
- Tweaked the depth cue on energy projectile's flares so they aren't so large in the distance (Detron Projectile feedback changes).
- Weapon and Mod conclave tweaks - increased the ratings on the Synapse, Heavy Caliber, and Toxin Damage mods.
- Revised name of Zoren Dagger Axe skin, so that we don't have duplicate names (Dagger Axe).
- Changed Frost�s Ability Sounds to align with new casting times.

Fixes:

- Fixed Burston Prime Blueprint not being tradeable.
- Fixed problem where players could get stuck in a state where they can�t roll or melee if they were not completely knocked down by an enemy.
- Fixed another instance of permanent end of mission black screen .
- Fixed remaining issues with Zephyr�s Turbulence letting most shots through.
- Fixed issue where Players can trade in progress Prime Blueprints which caused loss of resources.
- Fixed missing Japanese Characters (font) in game.
- Fixed issue where player attempts to fuse certain mods result in errors.
- Fixed issues with day/night fog on Earth.
- Fixed music not restarting after Stalker/Harvester appears.
- Fixed issues where Warframes that were Harvested while wearing Immortal skins weren�t showing proper FX in Aresenal.
- Fixed issue 9 from here, issues with mesh cuts in Forest: https://forums.warfr...-glitch-report/
- Fixed issue where Sniper Rifle enemies would rapid-fire when blind-firing.
- Fixed Ignis not using energy colour.
- Fixed Supra/Boltor not using energy colour.
- Fixed Amphis not using energy colour.
- Fixed issue where Capture target would get stuck on Earth missions.
- Fixed enemies throwing grenades while/after running instead of in proper Grenade throwing ways sequence.
- Fixed progression stopping issue if playing Earth�s Sabotage mission with Nightmare mode �timer� permutation.

Innerguard posted:

Can you give a breakdown of the actual point acquisition amount/mechanic please?

You escort this giant core to the end, if it takes damage you lose health on it. More health it loses the fewer points you get. Not much more to it than that.

HEK'S ESCALATION REWARDS

- Complete the new Shield Core missions with a score of 1000 or greater and get a QUANTUM BADGE, a brand new type of badge that uses particles!

- Players now have a more challenging mission, and competitive clans can now earn higher scores in this more difficult Hijack Mission.

Wouldn't the core have to have all 10,000 HP remaining to get that score? Or did they change how the scores are calculated.

Think it's a new mission, you get a new key BP, takes 6 data and 1K alloy to craft it.

SPECTERS OF LIBERTY
Rescue the Red Veil Hostages!

RESCUE 2.0 IS HERE!
To pave the way for this overhaul, we�d like to invite everyone to participate in Specters of Liberty to try out the changes, help us work out the kinks and earn some sweet rewards for your efforts. Have fun and let us know what you think.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
- Rescue Missions throughout the Star Map have been upgraded to Rescue 2.0. These missions -- and their rewards -- are a permanent addition the game.
- Be stealthy and you'll remain unseen by the enemy. Use this to your advantage to take down the Wardens and release the hostage in your own time. Killing all of the Wardens will also earn you an extra point. (See below).
- Lend the hostage your Secondary Weapon and they will help you take on the enemy.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO
- The 'Specters of Liberty' Operation will utilize the New Rescue 2.0 Missions. Exclusive Operation Rewards will be awarded to Tenno that achieve point levels while the Operation is live. (See Operation Rewards below.)
- The Corpus and Grineer have upgraded their prison security. Both factions have deployed these new facilities to three different nodes. There are Easy, Medium, and Hard facilities. Access these nodes directly on the Star Chart to participate.
- You need to locate the Red Veil Hostage. They are located in a cell within the prison block.
- Hostages are protected by Corpus or Grineer Wardens. Use caution, if alerted to your presence, they will try to initiate the Execution Sequence.
- If the Execution Sequence is started, a timer appears. If you fail to rescue the hostage before the timer runs out they will be killed.

RESCUE 2.0 MISSION REWARDS
Rescue 2.0 Mission Rewards are a permanent addition to the game. The Red Veil will always reward you for rescuing their Operatives with Specter Blueprints � Blueprints for new, deployable AI Warframes that can be used in missions or in defense of your Clan's Solar Rails.

Your Mission Rewards will be determined by the difficulty level and number of points earned in each Mission you complete.
Up to 3 points can be earned by completing the following:
Rescue a hostage = 1 point
Don't set off the kill switch = 1 point
Kill all Wardens = 1 point

Your Specter Blueprint will be awarded according to your score. More difficult missions offer stronger Specters.(One Blueprint reward per Mission.)

Your points will then multiply according to the difficulty of the node to determine your Operation Reward:
Easy (Vallis on Mars or Numa on Saturn) -- x1 Point Multiplier
Medium (Brugia on Eris or Mab on Uranus) -- x2 Point Multiplier
Hard (Nereid on Neptune or Cinxia on Ceres) � x3 Point Multiplier
Nightmare (if occurring) -- x4 Point Multiplier

OPERATION START AND END TIME
Specters of Liberty is on now! This operation will end on Thursday, May 8 at 12 PM EDT.

OPERATION REWARDS - distributed at end of operation.
The Red Veil will also recognize you for how you bring home their Operatives. They want you to send a message to the enemy.

Recognition is awarded after you reach the following point levels:
5 points = Operation Badge
100 points = Rakta Syandana

Go forth, Tenno and help the Red Veil bring their people home!

� New: Tenno Specters!
Tenno, you are not alone. The power to create a Specter can now be found in your Arsenal once you obtain a Blueprint! Creating a Tenno Specter can be accomplished by Rescuing hostages in Rescue 2.0! All new Rescue missions will include a hostage whose reward is determined by the difficulty and skill in completion of the mission!
You will be able to create the following tiers of Tenno Specters:

Vapor, Phase, Force, Cosmic

The Blueprints for these Specters can be found when Rescuing targets, see above details for the way points and difficulty works in obtaining your Blueprints!
What can you do with these Tenno Specters?
If you�re in a Clan or Alliance that wants to add greater challenge and defenses to your Solar Rail, you can create Tenno Specters to give to your Clan/Alliance�s Tactician to begin building an army for strategic deployment!
If you�re a player that wants added help in your regular missions, you can bring Tenno Specters in your gear slots to deploy!
Or, maybe you�re both! Have fun in the field with a Tenno Specter at your side!

� New Enemy Type: Wardens! These enemy types are more susceptible to stealth based attacks - find them as a part of Rescue 2.0!

� Added Fusion Core Folding! This feature will automatically group all of your Cores together by Rarity and Rank; i.e You have 50 Common Cores, 25 of which are rank 1 and 25 of which are Rank 2? They will now appear as separate stacks in your Inventory!
