There’s also snow on Venus so Earth being so hosed up that it needs life support for people makes sense!

But wait, why does your Warframe need life support? It’s for the unnamed guy doing the hacking I guess?

I can only assume that the archwings contain some kind of shielding and life support which is how you can survive in space / underwater.

Also that water isn’t simply water but a supercritical fluid of water and ammonia. So like 100 atm minimum of pressure and maybe 400C minimum

I’m glad I appear to have started an hour long running discussion on the hek in alliance chat.

I think that one of the design flaws of Limbo and some other frames (like Octavia to a much lesser extent) is that it requires the other players in the group to know how your frame works - and in a game with 35 different frames, and more on the way, expecting everyone to know how every other frame works is kind of a big expectation. If a player gets sucked into the limbo dimension then they have to know, without the game ever telling them, that they can do a roll to get out.

This, as a new player until I built a limbo I had no idea what was going on when one was in my party.

I also thought Octavia's 2 was a cosmetic until I asked clan chat and then followed up and looked up Octavia's mechanics where I discovered metronome

That's actually a pretty drat good point!

OK, here's my final Rhino build: https://goo.gl/EQEZdb

It's new player friendly (granted, you have to complete the Sacrifice quest) and doesn't require primed mods.

Edit: I'm actually pretty excited to try this out. Looks like I have a project this weekend.

Level 10 mods aren't new player friendly, those are 38k endo each, no?

Well I certainly didn’t expect our resident Death Cult being based around worshipping an autistic Tenno banished from the rest of the group because proto-Lotus Margulis thought he was too annoying, or something. I’m sure his portrayal is highly problematic and insensitive, but eh. It was a cool quest.

I found Clem on the roof :3:

I can’t do the follow up quest for another week,other than the prologue, but gently caress me im not going to get used to the “Hey Kiddo” thing, especially since my Operator has glowing electric blue eyes that shine in the dark. And gently caress THIS KEITH THOMPSON-DESIGNED, TOGA-WEARING, YAOI-HANDED, MOM-STEALING HOMEWRECKER.

If we're doing spoiler questions, I have one after the sacrifice: If the warframes are people that were infected then what exactly are we doing in our foundries?

A lamer, less fun Lord Shaxx then, got it. Thank you. Seems like kind of an odd choice for what feels like they're supposed to be a major player.

The lore behind PVP is that it’s how Tenno train and learn how to use their Warframes before going on the missions Lotus sends you on. So he’s actually pretty important story wise.

You’d only discover this if you wandered into his room at a relay

Hey guess what, CorPro is actually entirely unnecessary bar 120+ level grineer (which most people don't really fight, more work around) and Tridolons. If you're playing the game regularly and doing non-really high end stuff, don't worry about CorPro like, at all.

For people that don't have lots of mods and upgrades a level 50 enemy is as hard as a level 120 enemy for someone with all the mods and endo in the world.

Ran the sortie today with a pubbie that didn’t use corpro. A sortie against grineer with extra armor as the condition.

That pistol "feels" really good with the recoil reducing mod on it.

Too bad it takes up a slot so the gun will always be a lesser option.

Rhino players need to remember that they have more moves than Iron Skin.

Your best move is your Stomp assholes, use it and stop making me pick your dumb rear end up because you thought you were invincible.

And stop using skin before engaging! Your armor is calculated based on how much you're getting shot when you cast it, it's as useless as a shield when cast out of combat!

But yeah Frost is great, a lot of people use it as their universal main.

You sure the best move isn’t roar?

1) never cast it, basically
2) disorients a target and pulses an energy recharge four times; if the target dies before it expires, then the rest of the pending energy gets pulsed out at once - this is part of why Trinity owns so much
3) teethers you to up to three nearby enemies; you take 75% less damage while tethered and that 75% of damage that is mitigated gets redirected to the tethered bad guys - this is part of how you get really tanky
4) big AoE heal with with a damage reduction buff attached (caps at 75%) - this is the other part of why Trinity is both awesome and really tanky

Your goal for modding her is to hit 150% ability strength, and then build for duration without tanking your range too much. Efficiency is nice but for most stuff you can just EV.

Or just built for -duration and press 2 all day everyday.

Rhino should do the job, keep doing Fossa on Venus until you get all the parts. Max out a Steel Fiber and Intensify mod, since Iron Skin builds off those. Ask in alliance chat for the Iron Shrapnel mod so you can refresh Iron Skin when it gets low.

And do not level iron shrapnel

Tides would die out, orbit would be slightly modified by the suddenly missing mass counterweight. Possibly quite unpleasant, but I don't really care to calculate it because Rhino can canonically disrupt space-time by stomping.

Stomping with a little help from the void

I assume a lot of crazier warframe abilities would invoke operator magic anyways
