Darth Walrus posted:Got an Oberon cooking and a Rhino and Mag ready to go. How should I be modding them? What are the dump stats, what are the must-haves, and why? I'm relatively new (100 hrs), but I'm finding it isn't hard. Basically every build is just picking an ability you like and choosing Ability mods to min-max it. Run Flow and Streamline on goddamn everything. Vitality is never bad, nor are armor mods on frames with good armor. If things are dying and you aren't, you're doing it right.

Hey guys, what are the good rifles for crit builds? I'm currently using Soma and really liking it, wondering if there's better out there for that playstyle. Thinking about building the Amprex specifically, but don't want to waste the Fieldron if it's secretly rear end.

Sadly I forgot to check the MR on the rifles and I'm still at 7, so I'll have to build the Baza for now. The silence also seems dope with Loki who is rapidly becoming my no 2 frame after Rhino.

Is it best to always have 2-3 elemental mods on a crit weapon? I've noticed there's a lot of mods that up raw damage and crit, to the point where I'm choosing between those and elementals. I know Serration, Barrel Diffusion, Point Strike, and Vital Sense are the basic must-haves, but is it viable to just focus on these 4 stats and ignore elements?

Sikreci posted:MR7 nub question: what weapons in the game are garbage and not worth a single forma or potato? There's so many cool weapons I want to try out but I have a hard time figuring out what's good and what's trash at this point where I'm still lacking a lot of powerful mods from vaults and stuff. Like, I've wanted to love the Boltor, Latron, and Vasto but found them kind of meh and never touched them again after mastering them. Then there's guns like the Sobek, Tonkor, and Furis that I thought would be meh that I turned out to love, so I don't know what's good or not or even how to evaluate what's good beyond "my feelings". I just Google or look at YouTubers rating weapons to give me an idea of what's good. Usually there is a consensus on what's MR junk and what's worthwile; beyond that bar it's mostly experimentation and what works for you.

Rhino is amazing, as is Loki, I'd recommend building those soon as you can. slow_twitch posted:Man I must have really missed some vital info about the sentinel enemies. I have a 4 forma amprex and 3 forma atomos but the sentinels in the sacrifice mission just sponged it all up. I felt like you were supposed to be badass when you get Umbra but I almost died lol... Two words: Arca. Plasmor. Also having a secondary with different damage types from your primary is great.

FunkyFjord posted:Paris Prime is plenty good early on if you're a fan of bows. And the Lex Prime, poo poo it isn't fancy at all but it gets a lot of work done. The Hek is a great choice for your first potato. The Lex Prime is a great second candidate, and the only reason you shouldn't put one in it is if you really want to buy an aklex bp and link, make another Lex P, and then get that sweet Aklex Prime. The (ak)lex and it's prime versions are my favorite all-round secondaries in the game. This is in part because I like beams and shotguns for my primaries, but still, they are great.

Redundant posted:I just sell my max rank weapons. Just check its not used in a blueprint before you sell it. If you have a really good weapon you can use forma to reset a weapon to level 0 again and add a polarity. You won't get any MR for levelling it up again though and forma are fairly rare/useful so I'd wait before worrying too much about using one. You don't even need to worry about Forma until your mods are nearly all maxed or close to it, so it's not even a concern until late game. I don't think I used Forma at all until I started doing Sorties and wanted to go that extra mile.

super sweet best pal posted:The problem with Hek is you'll never want to use any other primaries available to lowbies and will take forever to get your MR up. Flip side, once you have Sedna open and Loki made, leveling primaries for MR is trivial. It does mean more "pure" grinding, but I think I prefer that to using inferior weapons and using potatoes on weapons that won't last to the end game.

Shredder posted:What makes Loki good for leveling stuff? I've been working on it just for the invis since the first riven mod I got is "complete an exterminate without being detected with a movement debuff" which sounds boring/tedious as gently caress The best way to grind affinity for weapons is the Sedna spy mission (Kappa iirc) and Loki trivializes it, and his high sprint speed makes it faster to boot. It is tedious but you can get a weapon from 0 to 30 in about half an hour (8 runs) with no booster. hoobajoo fucked around with this message at 20:32 on Jun 25, 2018 |

Bug Squash posted:I'm getting my rear end kicked on the quest where I need to kill a bunch of mimics to chase umbra. Tried it with my rhino and with the Hek and a Lenz. I'm level 9, should I just cool it until I've got better weapons? Bringing a primary and secondary with different damage types works well. Especially if they're high damage per shot weapons. MR 10 gives you the Arca Plasmor, which is ideal for this and is dope in general, so waiting isn't the worst.

Echophonic posted:Yeah, that's part of the beauty of it. You can work on something for a while, then go "forget this" and go do something else. Tired of farming cells? You probably need kuva or ducats anyway. Tired of that? I'm sure there's a gun you can try out in Onslaught. "Man, gently caress Onslaught" you say? We just got a bunch of Tau mods, Index credits and Rathuum endo are calling. Yeah, I agree with this. There is an element of grind to be sure, but there's a great variety in modes and the fundamental gameplay is fun so it never gets old.

MisterFuzzles posted:Speaking of Archwing garbage, is there any general newbie friendly setup much like Rhino and the Hek for doing any of it? I've coasted by on most alerts or the like by being carried. Amesha is basically unkillable, like the Rhino of archwing. Fluctus and Centaur are the best weapons; sadly their parts are sold by the syndicates but they're not too much plat. Otherwise, Grattler is good. Good news is when you do have this setup you totally trivialize all archwing content, and then it's kinda fun. Well, when you're not bumping into walls at least.

NovaLion posted:I got Trinity Prime through the Twitch bundle, and I don't really enjoy her. What are the "strong" frames currently, that are more offensive-based? Saryn and Ember are good AoE frames if you want your abilities to do tons of numbers. Excalibur and Mesa kill things very dead with exalted weapons. Mirage can output truly absurd damage with self-buffs. Loki and Rhino are good choices if you want to pack some CC with your high damage. That's not exhaustive, but those are the frames I have experience with and can say confidently are generally good. Nova is also very offensive, in the sense that she offends with how good Molecular Prime is. (obligatory plug for my favorite frame)

Draxion posted:There's so much weird abandoned poo poo in this game. Like, do Solar Rails do anything any more? Some of the only stuff we don't have researched are the specter defenses for those, which I assume is because they were always dumb and not worth the time. But it feels weird that they're still technically in. I introduced a friend to WF about 2 months ago, and yesterday he asked me "So I got my first Riven, and it's for the Amprex. Is that good?" and to answer that question I had to explain two game systems and another resource. WF is maybe the least elegant game in history. What a beautiful mess.

nerdz posted:The only thing that I hate about the operator is how poorly coded it is, regarding netcode. If you're the slightest bit laggy, playing with overseas people the delay between switching in and out of operator can make it unplayable. Why not simply code it as an always on extension of the frame, so it doesn't rely on network latency to activate? The Evolution Engine is made to run on toasters, and it was never meant to have anything like the Operator, so there's certainly got to be a lot of weirdness going on under the hood.

Sylphosaurus posted:So I´ve been playing this game for the last two weeks and I´m having a goddamn blast. I´ve currently reached Saturn and unlocked Excalibur, Rhino and Frost as my current Frames. What Frame should I go for next? Seconding getting Loki when you get to Neptune, he's easy to get and a huge gamechanger on spy, rescue, and capture missions. If you're really burning for something right now, Nova (Europa boss) is one of my favorite frames for defense, mobile defense, survival, and interception, her 4 turns the game into easy mode. She's also part of the optimal resource farming composition, so it can open doors there. hoobajoo fucked around with this message at 21:25 on Jul 9, 2018 |

SettingSun posted:New player here. Been playing for about 20 hours and just got to Jupiter. Now I have 3 new warframes in the oven now that I can get the parts to make the parts and the game is finally beginning to click. I'd like to say I know what I'm doing but the sheer number of things going on in this game is staggering. I'm taking it one thing at a time. Game is good. You can definitely get plat just by trading, though it's a little tedious. The most valuable things are desirable prime parts and rare mods; if you want easy plat, farm for corrupted mods. They are mods with big upsides with a downside: 6 go for 20+ plat each and a couple more sell for 10. They are also mods you really want yourself, and it doesn't require you to fight high level enemies or anything. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OYfbIXljlA

Potato Salad posted:What's a good shotgun frame? All of them, some just want different shotguns than others. I'm being kinda facetious, but shotguns are so drat good and diverse in this game it really doesn't narrow it down too much. If you're talking about a stereotypical shotgun like the Hek, any frame with good survivability will do you well. Loki's also great since his invisibility makes it so you can get close safely and covers your reload downtime, but that's just Loki being amazing rather than a real synergy.
