I just started getting into this game myself. (Kaldaris)

I picked up the following weapons with pretty much no knowledge, just. 'This looks cool' and then I built it.

Primaries;
Karak, Latron
Secondaries;
Kunai, Magnus
Melee;
Gram, Furax.

Can anyone type any words on these weapons? Good mods to slot / better weapons? (I know the Galatine is better than the Gram)

I'm also using the Loki Warframe because I'm somehow a masochist that doesn't want any AoE at all.

I started with this recently too. Pretty much everything has changed since I last played, so what should I be shooting for at this point in time? I'm also using a Loki because it looked the best back when I started.

:hfive:

Same reason I picked the Loki. Though the whole 'going invisible and making decoys' thing does wonders if your teammates fall in Survival or Defense. (Or pretty much any other time.) Best rezzers for sure.

Really liking the Karak. Good all around damage, doesn't make me feel like I have to worry about changing it between missions.

Theres a door on one of the Corpus capture missions that I keep locking myself in because the target runs in and then locks the door behind themselves, with no way to open it form the inside.
drat you locked doors for making me restart over and over. :argh:

This was a bug that said a console needed to be hacked to open up the door; except--

1) I couldn't reach any of the consoles
2) I had no idea if it was even possible to undo since the rest of my team seemed to be able to progress through the area with no problems.

I really loathe Corpus missions now. They soak up tons of damage, eat your shields for breakfast, and are just utterly un-fun to fight because of those stupid helmets.

I'm only at rank 2, and the last boss I killed was Hek. Are there any easily available weapons that will make them less of a slog, or am I just boned until later?

Get a Karak.

Put +Impact/+Damage/+Cold/+Electricity on it.

If you can. Just any of those for the most part.

FYI the Karak is really good and really dependable against pretty much all the factions. You'd be well off putting a Rifle Ammo Mutation on it. It goes through ammo pretty quick.

I just installed the game, I believe there is to be a proper tutorial now? The game seems to remember my progress for playing it for like 30 minutes in the Beta and I am not quite sure how to access the tutorial? I have managed to fludge through the first few levels but the proper tutorial would help.

Also since I noticed the shop says half off all Platinum I bought some and picked up the Saryn frame(since the Rhino one everyone is gaga about is apparently gated by your level I could not purchase it). I got about 800 platinum left is there any good beginner frames/weapons I should pick up?

Volt's the best deal and the only one I've bought with plat. Apart from that, if you've got the time, things aren't really that expensive to or difficult to make.

Orokin Catalysts, Orokin Reactors, and Formas are usually the best things to get for plat.

I reccomend a Karak if you really must spend your plat on something.

What does using Fusion Cores on your mods do?

I maxed out Shock, so is it doing more damage now or what? How would that work with stuff that gives you like 40% more vitality?

Fusion Cores add experience into your mods. Use them wisely! (And don't sell them)

The Wiki will tell you the changes to leveling up abilities. (Generally yes, more damage.)

I've seen people talking about different elements like magnetic damage, to get them you just combine the two elements that it says on the wiki with mods and then I'll start dealing that sort of damage? Or do I have to combine the mods into one somehow?

Gotta say, there's a lot of players out there that--

*Spams AoE for the entire match and rushes through getting every kill.*

Calm down. That's what happens when you blitz through with an AoE class on a marginally difficult mission.

The Ignis is the main answer here. Starts up right away and barely needs to be aimed at all.

Takes a while to build if you haven't been acquiring Detonite Injectors in anticipation of making it, though.

Ignis also requires a Forma. These both do. Which can be a bit of a pain for new players to get.

I was lucky enough to pull out 7 neural sensors from a 30 minute Elara run. Also a Charged Chamber, I guess.

Then the "50+ wave ODD" turned into two people bailing at wave 20. Then the Stalker spawned on the other person and instantly killed them, but ate a death from my Penta before despawning and he dropped... Dread.

However I got the Harvester today and it dropped both of the parts I needed for Detron so that's cooking.

Just got out of the Darvo alert and I thought it was one of the most well put together missions I've ever done despite being a Rescue. The banter and the Hyena miniboss fight were both really nice touches, especially with the animated portraits, and it felt really sleek. You could tell where the dev hours went for U12.

What would be the best build for Volt? Shock, Sprint, Overload, Flow, Continuity, Focus, Streamline, Constitution, Narrow Minded and Stretch to counter it, Grab the Volt Storm Helmet when I can? I just want to zap dudes dead.

You don't need Narrow Minded and Stretch then.

Get some tank.

Mine has--

Energy Siphon, Blind Rage, Focus, Streamline, Fleeting Expertise, Vigor, Redirection, Flow, Shock, Overload, and Speed. (I switch out Fleeting Expertise for Shield every now and then.)

I really, really like the style of Saryn, both visual and otherwise.

Is she garbage?

Her Spores are trash. Her Molt is questionably useful. Her +Toxic on melee is garbage. (Partially on account of melee in general being bad right now. We'll see if this changes in the new melee system.) Her ult is fantastic.

The problem really is, she's just kind of a one-button warframe. But if you build around her ult, her one button is pretty darn good.

It just sucks on most robotics.
