Tried to read most of the thread, got me intrigued. Anything you guys would suggest that isn't already in the OP? Also, because I trust goons, is Nekros really bad, or just a niche warframe? Seems like it has a lot of potential if done right. Edit: The wiki seems terribly outdated too... I'm trying not to poo poo this up like normal.

NGDBSS posted:Nekros is only decent if you're trying to farm item drops - say, like running one of the survival missions on Saturn for Orokin Cells. Otherwise his statline is not great and his ult is hilariously terrible (due to the AI). Soul Punch looked fun, but you and seifer have helped me make up my mind. Thanks. seiferguy posted:Nekros has one good use in survival missions for converting dead bodies into item drops. Other than that, ehhh not really. Sounds good, and I remember reading that about mods. Hopefully I can get in-game tonight. I don't plan on spending any money for a bit, but I'm sure that I'll have enough fun to throw money at it to support the developer. Anything I should hold onto that I can pass on to newer guys later, or does some stuff bind to you?

So much for the ticket I submitted, maybe one of you here has had this happen as well: Get enough affinity to go from 0 to 1, click "yes" for the test, instant 24 hour timer. They see it on their end that I failed the test, yet I never even loaded the environment. That being said, I'm addicted to this game now, thanks guys. I love the mobility of Loki, how hard is it to drag yourself away from this frame in terms of that (not due to invisibility)? Realistically I'd like to move to Rhino/Volt next and would probably be happy with just those three for a while.

Kneejerk posted:It's just the standard thing that happens to everyone, it seems. It'll be available once the timer ends and you'll have no problems after that. Had a feeling about that, I made sure to let them know I didn't want the timer removed, just to log it. Odd poo poo happening with the network too, plus they just shot out another tiny patch apparently. It's amazing how much difference moving up to Braton/Cronus from MK-1 Braton/Skana made. I'm holding on to quite a few multiples of cards already to pass on as well once I get to Mastery 2.

Apparently the RNG favored me today, got all of the Rhino and Oberon parts to drop without having to grind. I'm sure I'll pay for that later on somehow, can't be lucky once and not get a right good anal-fisting to make up for it later.

Szurumbur posted:No wonder people turn to outright buying the Frames using Platinum Someone said it before in this thread that the crafting is similar to that of Monster Hunter, and I'm inclined to agree. I know it's all RNG for the most part, but my experience so far has been that it's quite easy to obtain the parts of the frames while leveling other stuff. Aside from Vauban, frames are easy to farm up, and with the Tenno lab available I feel it's even easier. It's a time and money sink like anything else, it just seems to take a lot of effort at first. Impulse plat buying from new players is probably a large chunk of the income for this game.

For anyone looking for prime stuff, I'm giving a bunch of mine away for nothing. Hit me up ingame (Nanopathogen) and let me know what you're looking for, same deal for mods. Only thing I'm even looking for at this point is a Boltor Prime BP so I can nail mans to walls. Seriously though, you can just poo poo a slash dash for these parts, I don't care. Goonlove. Fakeedit: I hope whips become op, I already only use the scoliac because it's drat fun. Realedit: Still no luck on the gauntlet denzine, trying again after the patch. I blame credit caches for my failure.

If anyone wants, I'd be happy to put up a little guide for fleecing pubbies out of their mods/BPs/parts/plat. Seriously, if you're patient and not attached to your unbuilt space-pixels, there is bank to me made. I don't want to poo poo up the thread if it's not wanted though, so I leave it up to you fine gentlemen. Additionally, welfare handouts are in effect again, just let me know what you're looking for and I'll see what I can do. If I don't have it, I add it to a list of who needs what depending on who asked for it first.

 MAKE MAD MONIES LIKE A REAL GOONThe art and mastery of harvesting pubbies for space cash and tears is but one of many pillars that goons have erected over the years. What I describe below are tried and true methods that I vouch for and have used many times. Please feel free to add your methods as there are many ways to skin a cat. Understand that most of this comes down to patience and being in the right place at the right time. Warframe prices are primarily dependent on sperging teens with someone else's money in their hand. If it's shiny or new (or both) they will poo poo golden bars into your hand to get it. Case in point: Akbronco Prime links-Initial price was 300-500 plat, two weeks later the market is saturated and good luck selling for more that 5-10 plat, if you could even sell one. So here's the quick and dirty rules: 1. Sell early, sell often. You can get the pixels back later, profit now. This is baseline market management, never forget it. Be patient and sell high. If you can buy below your sell price, stock up and sell for 10%-20% plat more than you bought the pixels for. Don't try to blow the price higher, you'll just hurt your chances. (Unless of course the pubbie is extra special, then fleece them hard.) 2. Inflate your market. A personal favorite of mine is to place WTB advertisements in trade chat for stupid high prices (like 500 for Tranquil Cleave, the hanzo steel stance). You will get people falling out of their web-enabled rascal scooters to pm you to sell their space-cards or whatever. Calmly tell them you have a few of whatever it is they're selling, and that you are simply inflating the market, they will not object. If they do, they won't tell anyone else because of greed. Additionally, if you see someone selling low in chat, pm them and tell them that they are lowballing themselves and could "totally do better." The common excuse is that they need the plat now, or just don't need the pixels. Don't press the issue, inform them, buy it from them (after negotiating an even lower price -more on that later-) and re-list, and move on. 3. Timezones outside of GMT-8 to GMT-5 (North American Time Zones) are important. Figure out when your playtime can match up with primetime in some other country, like the EU. This has nothing to do with the people in the country, but everything to do with the amount of individuals trading during their prime time. GMT-8 to GMT-5 prime times are so densely packed that it can be a colossal pain in the rear end to move product. Meanwhile, in the times when no one is on, you can make amazing deals due to the impatience of a weary seller/buyer. Additionally, with a lack of trade-chat babble, prices are even more wobbly than normal. 4. Abuse wftrading.net. Seriously, this site is ok at best. Use it for baseline prices, then go from there. Not enough pubbies use it to make it consistent, it's a glorified wiki as far as I'm concerned. You can report bogus prices to some effect to it, but don't expect a huge impact on the market unless you can get someone to see an adjusted price you made happen, while also hoping they don't read comments. Use it as a failsafe when gauging your own prices vs. whatever travesty is going on in trade chat. 5. Silver tongues and mental fellatio. Be the salesgoon you know you are. You need to project an air of benevolent superiority. Don't be a dick, and don't coddle the pubbies. Reassure them that whatever price you are giving is the best they will get due to "circumstances." Here's a breakdown of one from today: *Pubbie: I'll sell you the BP for 25 plat. *Goon: How about 18 plat and two cores, that's the best offer I've given all day for this. *Pubbie: 20 and cores? Or is 18 all the plat you have?[/b] *Goon: No, I have much more plat, I just won't go higher than that. I'd normally offer 15, but I want to flip the BP fast before the market tanks next week. More than 18 and I make no profit from buying yours. *Pubbie: What makes you thing the market will tank? *Goon: Look at akbronco links, they started at 3-500 plat, then two weeks later I can't sell for more than 10 plat, if I can even sell them at all. There are links everywhere, and T3MobDef keys drop like candy. *Pubbie: Hmmmmm... True. *Goon: Tell you what, I'll throw in an extra core if you trust me enough for a second trade. *Pubbie: No, you're right, it's a deal for the plat and 2 cores. (Yes, this happened not even 8 hours ago) And that's how the west was won that time. Lie and barter intelligently. Make your sales pitch sound true, not too good to be true. Use "factual" information that sounds correct. So far, there is no legitimate way to look at market trends in Warframe, aside from your own experience. Prey upon the inexperience of pubbies and their shaky knowlede of bartering. 6. Always try to trade pixels before straight plat, then a mix of pixels and plat, then go to plat. Unless the pubbie is being a hardass, trade poo poo that can drop first, save plat for extreme circumstances where time is of the essence. Or just save it for scarves and sword-keychains. 7. Never divulge your gooniness. There is almost no way for them to know you are a goon, and if they find out, go by their demeanor. If they are impressed, wax on about our amazing bro-love or some other sperging fps brofist poo poo. If they are squeamish, tell them you got sponsored in by a friend and are just in it for them because "reasons." *In trade chat there is a disclaimer that DE will not enforce trades for promises. While this doesn't say scamming for them is frowned upon, it doesn't make it perfectly fine either. Tread lightly gooneer. Report your findings if you venture into this territory. I'm working on finding out myself, and will edit this post accordingly. 8. Outright scamming: do it smartly. Reading comprehension is at an all-time-low for space ninjas. If you can sneak the wrong part/bp/whatever in and they click accept offer, it's game over for them. A simple "oh, I thought you meant you needed this part," will usually suffice. Adding to this, cancelled trades automatically resume if you start a trade with the same partner. Abuse this, they will most likely be trigger-happy to hit accept offer. There is no shame, only profit. Feign ignorance when necessary, it is your right. 9. Coordinate with fellow goons at times to mind-gently caress pubbies via pm. You'll need to be creative and utilize mumble/teamspeak/irc/whatever. Just make sure you're both on the same page and know what the end-goal is for whoever makes the trade. Set an upper and lower limit for your trade, and keep your trade windows clean so you don't gently caress up and send a goon message to the terrible pubbie-scum. Make sure you split the profits with your helper-goon. Nothing says best-tennos 4ever like matching scarves and carrier parrots on Vaubans you bought with righteous plat harvested from the mentally inept. 10. Never be afraid to ask for advice in clan/alliance chat. Personally I stick to clan chat first since the alliance is new, but that will change over the next few weeks. Mainly I just don't want to ruffle feathers right off the bat. That being said, I assume it will happen, and I don't care. 11. Don't scam goons/alliance members. It should go without saying, so just try to make a slight effort to see who they are before you shave their pubic hair and sell it back to them as a wig for their AIDS baby. There's probably more I'm forgetting, but my pain pills are kicking in. Berate me for my terrible long post. -Nanopathogen There will be more added soon, I'll highlight the additions below this line in some way.

For all of you asking for stuff and wondering if you're being greedy, no you are not(it's a giveaway). I didn't want to threadshit with the giveaway, so I hope it's not seen as such, it's just that this is our central place to communicate and made sense to drop it here for now. Heads up that the servers are being hosed with again, and some form of :de: maintenance is also taking place. Currently I have 5 trades left until 7pm CST, and I intend on using all of them on goons. (When I can actually get into the game and stay in reliably) Thanks again to the goons that got me going with handouts back in January when I started playing this game. On another note, could someone enlighten me on their Ogris macro and whether I should find a firestorm for one if I build it? I'd like to be able to add to the number of people that can powerlevel other goons in ODD.
