I don't know why, but I've started having insane FPS issues. The game literally becomes a slideshow whenever I'm not soloing.

Der Waffle Mous posted:Just to confirm something because I'm not quite clear on it, when you slot an elemental mod, you're going to be doing that damage each shot/burst/swing in addition to whatever physical damage, correct? No. All damage types have a status effect, and it seems to pick which effect to apply somewhat randomly. Impact: Knockback Puncture: Weakened (reduced damage output) Slash: Bleed (health reduced over time, healing blocked) Fire: Ignited (fire damage over time) Freeze: Slowdown Electrical: Chain Electricity Damage Poison: Poison DoT to health Blast (fire+freeze): Knockdown Radiation (fire+electrical): Confusion (Attacks and draws aggro from nearest enemy) Gas (fire+poison): Toxin AOE Magnetic (freeze+electrical): Penalty to max shields Viral(freeze+poison): Penalty to max health Corrosive (electric+poison): Penalty to armor [courtesy of doorframe wiki] edit: I'm pretty sure they also hosed up the maths on the status proc mods. I mean, why else would you have a mod that only adds 15% of your (already absurdly tiny) status proc chance instead of just adding 15% to the chance? Unless it's X% chance per proc per shot.

Diet Lime posted:I decided to try this, because it looks like ME3's multi, which I like alot, but way more involved and awesome. You do get a rather hefty (although still somewhat not really worth the effort) bit of affinity for doing stealth scans. And if you scan enough to fill out the "useless" entries, it shows you weaknesses and rare drops. Or you could just use the Warframe wiki, and let poopsocking nerds do all the research for you. But then think of all the entries in the codex that won't have gold stars. You want the gold stars, right? Wales Grey fucked around with this message at 22:40 on Nov 26, 2013 |

Broniki posted:New player here, my Dorito Gun has been rank 30 for a long time and now I want to switch to something else so I can get my rank up (currently 3). What primary should I move on to from the Braton? Strun (a shotgun) is an interesting change of pace and dirt cheap to boot. Paris (a bow) is interesting if flawed. Burstron is good if you can swing burst fire guns. Latron is something I've never used, but it's a semi-auto long rifle. edit: Braton/Latron Prime, as well as Dread are all Mastery 0 weapons. Those all take some doing (and a heaping helping of luck) to get though. Wales Grey fucked around with this message at 18:31 on Nov 30, 2013 |

Flipswitch posted:How the gently caress do I beat Alad? Shoot him a bit, then shoot his dog, then shoot him again. The secret is that ZANUKA (such a dumb name) will jump over to revive him whenever he goes down, so you gotta kill his dog before you waste him. Having a frame with strong AoE to deal with the junk he summons is also nice.

Isaacs Alter Ego posted:Switch Teleport isn't really very good for anything other than screwing with pubbies, and Radial Disarm has a few uses but on the ultimate scale it's down there with Necro and Valkyr. Decoy + Switch Teleport is basically 50 energy (or less) for a LoS range teleport. Once you max Switch Teleport and fit a few power range mods or the Swindle hat (which you should grab anyway because it looks boss as hell) anyway. The only change the Loki ult really needs is to do more damage to infested/any damage to previously disarmed dudes. It's brutal in PvP if you can get enough energy to use it. (Removes all energy/shields/prevents attacks for ~4 seconds, does like 200+ DMG to unshielded Tenno. Not that it matters any versus Rhino's 1.2k buffer or in the face of instagib-levels of damage, but it does something nifty.) Wales Grey fucked around with this message at 03:09 on Dec 2, 2013 |

Wheeee posted:I've been playing this for about a week, logging in almost daily for short periods of time, and frankly this game deserves a low metacritic score. DE aren't "blatantly incompetent". They made a bunch of highly questionable design decisions early on that they can't change now because it'd gently caress with everything they've done, implementing fundamental design changes would take forever, and they've got a revenue stream. If you want "blatantly incompetent", look at companies such as PGI and whoever the gently caress is developing that TES mmo. edit: To be clear, DE have definitely proven they're not a Grade-A studio with regards to solo projects. A quick look at their history shows this very clearly. Wales Grey fucked around with this message at 07:21 on Dec 2, 2013 |

QuantaStarFire posted:This is what I'm doing. It's frustrating though that something you get on Venus can't be built until you have half the solar system unlocked. gently caress, you can't even build the Seer pistol that you got on loving Mercury until you can get your hands on an Orokin Cell, which drops in loving Saturn, which is 3 planets away. They really should give you something to build other than the Cronus while you're ranking up. Hell, they should tell you that, "Hey, you got something you can build from killing Vor! Let's walk though the crafting system real quick!" once you get the Cronus blueprint. Actually, raw potatoes have a (minor) chance to drop from any/every boss. They do drop more frequently on Saturn/Ceres/Void, but you can grind them off any boss.

Warframe: Tenno of the Orokin Empire. edit: chumbler posted:That's what we all kind of expected corrupted mods to be. Instead we got a mix of mods that are an upside nobody cares about on an awful downside that is a loving 10 level rare mod (hi tainted magazine) or something with an insane upside and irrelevant downside that is trivially easy to level.

Valatar posted:So I've hit max level on my Excalibur and Braton and further experience is going entirely to waste. Does anyone have advice about which rifle is a step up from the Braton and is attainable at rank 2? I want to get an Ash frame, so have been heading towards Uranus to work on it; until I get the parts for that I'm sort of stuck gaining no more frame mastery for a while as I have no intention of dropping 275 plat for a frame. The only other full-auto rifles at rank two and below are the Boltor and the Grataka. The former got hosed by the new damage system, and the latter is genuinely painful to use. So there's not really any weapon that's a "step up" from the Braton in the way it's a "step up" from the Mk-1. The Burstron and Latron are sidegrades into burstfire and semi-auto rifles respectively, and the Strun is a solid shotgun. Paris is fun to use, but not really suited to the speed that groups tend to move at. edit: Here's a list of weapons by mastery level. Chomp8645 posted:

Kanos posted:Yeah, infested are pretty much a trivial joke. You can literally double the level of any given infested compared to either of the other two factions and they'll still be easier as long as your weapons don't suck. Infested are my favorite faction to fight because they don't all have magical 1/2 damage protection on their bodies or shields (and shield ospreys), and are really weak vs. fire/slash; both of which are really easy to get a hold of early. ThePhenomenalBaby posted:Infested don't really have a dangerous unit. If you get knocked down in a pack swarm yea i guess you'll die but eh. They really need a hulking monstrosity type to complement the ancients. maybe a ranged flying support unit that shoots poo poo at you. Stuff like that.

Devor posted:If I like the Braton, is there another rifle that's similar to it, but better? I like the slow-firing automatic aspect, so that I can pop out single shots when I want to, and hold it down for packs of stuff. I found a Grakata blueprint, and leveled it to 30, but I never liked how out of control the firing was, and the fact that I would constantly run out of ammo, even when being conservative with it. The only other automatic rifles are:
Hind is quite good, or so I've heard. It's a burstfire gun though, so it might not be your cup of tea. Clocks posted:Since we're all asking for weapon suggestions, what's a good late-game/end-game secondary? Viper has been surprisingly effective so far, it's accurate for a machine pistol and does good damage. You can take it and turn it into a dual viper when you max it out too. Magnus also looks nifty. 20% crit/status before mods, up to 44% crit chance and/or 25%(?) status chance with mods.

Unless Melee 2.0 changes melee combat away from "Mash the single melee button as fast as you can or sometimes hold down the button if you're using a Galatine" it's going to be effectively the same thing as making it a fancy mod that slightly changes your animation. Worst case scenario: DE makes all melee attacks knock you down unless you block them.

If a gun's a joy to fire, it's a joy to fire. It's a good thing mastery ranks beyond 6 basically don't matter at all! necrobobsledder posted:If pulling out melee weapons lets you block incoming fire better, we will probably pick up swords more. I figure if in a fantasy game like the Witcher you can deflect arrows as an enhanced human as a Tenno you can deflect goddamn machine gun rounds with your blades. I find it hard to believe that we're thousands of years in the future and the largest military force in the galaxy will continue to be heavily reliant on melee weapons against enemies that are melee gods and goddesses. DE please make next melee weapon a chainsaw-sword, not some dumb weaboo katana.

Epsilon Plus posted:You already can, kind of - hold block for a second in front of gunfire. It's not perfect, but the animation is there. If you use the reflection mod on your Warframe, you can apparently reflect a percentage of damage from basically anything while blocking. A percentage of the post-armor reduction damage. Which is then modified by the attacker's armor. While taking full damage from whatever's attacking you because blocking doesn't do anything at the moment. Reflection is reportedly great for messing with people in conclaves, though. Tenno are very squishy unless you're a tankframe or invulnerable. KARMA! posted:There's also the parry mod that'll deflect some. Parry doesn't reduce damage taken or make blocking anything more than a silly knockdown gimmick vs. infested or other melee at the moment.
