CLAN
It's called InfinityGrind. Post your IGN and you'll probably be added eventually if it doesn't require the clan to increase in size which increases the grind exponentially on all clan projects. The benefits are like-minded players, fully researched clan dojo and some generous faggots who may gift/welfare out you some slots etc if you're low MR and desperate.

How to take advantage of X2 Resource Promotion

But I'm poorfag with no plat

Start learning how to trade for plat. Use chat filters in trade tab to highlight WTB and to filter out WTS and things you don't want to trade. Do daily sorties and sell rivens for 30-40p while they're still veiled. Invest in 3 syndicates; 3 on the left or right, choose which side based on mod offerings. Right side has historically better mods for trading frequently. DO NOT SELL syndicate weapons, their plat:standing cost is not worth it for the seller. Stick to selling augment mods for 10-15p. It's literally better to buy syndicate weapons with platinum even from your own syndicates instead of wasting the standing on them which could be used to jew more plat out of the mods and archwing pieces. Be quick on the draw when you see someone WTB'ing an item you're trying to sell. Don't stick in trade all day. Check it throughout the day, between missions otherwise you'll lose your soul from staring at scrolling text for hours. You can also try warframe.market *results may vary

Remember the grind is so bad these days that it's often easier to grind for platinum instead of the thing you want.

Tekken 7 is out in 6 days so I'm 99% likely to drop this shit then. Wanted to make one more general before then.

I normally don't like calling people shills but I'll make an exception for you sir.
There's no way that someone can enjoy this grind fest, specially after the newest frames being such a chore to build and ending up being so overpower to the point of being boring

Maybe you should've stuck to not using that word since you're still making it lose all meaning.

Is infinity clan still around or should I just join a random clan to steal tech?

You could've at least waited for Oberon prime or harrow so the thread doesn't seem like a formal general.


Yeah it's still here

Already said I'll be dropping the game for another soon.

Didn't the Chinese devs just steal a ton of fanart?

Sweet, whoever has the power invite me so I can once again just take bps and inevitably leave the game in a month or 2 please do so
ign: Uluxlan
also im at work now so I'll drop in bout 8h

Alright, i stopped following this game some time ago when the developers introduced kids and made them control the robutts (?) and many players were outraged by this, is this true or I'm just making things up in my head? Are the "kids" still a thing?

Forwarded your IGN to 2nd in command.


Probably

We call em' potato kids. And yes they're very real, unfortunately. Nobody likes em' because they're fugly as sin. If only they contracted some japs to handle their modelling. Fucking Canadian jews can't into lolis.Here's the best I could come up with.

But for what fucking reason would they make kids controlling robutts canon? Except for making clangfags angry about their waifus being mere puppets, that is.

thanks my man, gotta get them mastery fodder bps

Didn't all the artists leave after it was revealed you're actually goblins and not sexy biorobots?

Out of all the flags that'd stay.

Are you from the exosuit thread?
Yes. People were both creeped out and saddened by it.
In fact, one of the best SFM artists abandoned his blog for over a year because of it.

Muh cinematic experience. It's so that they can keep making cinematic quests with walking story sequences.

Pretty much everyone hates the kids, except the very top percentage of the most brainless fanboys who defend them only out of loyalty. The devs are utterly incompetent and have no idea what they're doing, with anything.

Yes. It was that obvious, uh.
That's what I'd witnessed and heard. You're talking about wattchewant, right? I didn't know it was this event in particular that made him go awol.

This game is one of the worst ever created.
Everyone still touching it should be executed on sight.
Op should be the first.

That's what people think, anyway. He fucked off around the same time this happened.
He's back, though. He's only posted his personal projects, however. No porn.

...

...

...

Oh so you're the cuck.
Why are you here then?

Says the person who is continually posting in a thread that they dislike. I don't think I'm the cucked one here.

He likes to see other people having their own fun in threads they like.
While he complains to himself in the corner about how bad all of this is.

Shitposters are the true cucks of the internet.

Should I even put any more forma on this thing? I'm not even sure what mods I'd swap out. I guess I *could* remove sinister reach and put more elemental damage on, but sinister reach is great QOL and I mainly use this thing as a spore-popper with saryn

Do not do this thing.

It's worth putting more forma on it. It's not nearly as awesome as it was before the nerf but it still holds up well as a way to no-brain fucking firehose down less mobs.

*lesser mobs
As in not very strong.

Just watched todays devstream, and they talked about bringing Keith Thompson back to the game. Well, he's already working, as he made Harrow (next frame to come) and they showed a concept art for the next frame after that.
For those who don't know, Keith Thompson did all gen 1 warframes, and came back to work on atlas and mirage. I personally love his designs, they are kind of "brutalist" scy-fy, if that makes any sense.

Check him out www.keiththompsonart.com

Well… like for what?

I don't HAVE a jolt, I'd replace stormbringer with jolt if I did for even more status. But that doesn't need more mod-space…

I'm not arguing that my build is 'perfect', I'm asking what exactly I would change around on here if I were to add more forma.

I hear ya on it being pretty ineffective by itself against high tier shit on it's own, but that status actually gives it pretty handy utility in that you can bullet-jump around and just tap the mouse to knock everyone in front of you on their ass with that blast proc, and you're long gone by the time they get back up. It's very handy for level 'traversal' even at sortie level. And with saryn/spores, it's still ungodly powerful on most 'high' (50-100) but not 'endgame' (140+ etc) stuff (but ONLY in that combo; otherwise it's really just a knockdown utility thing at those levels; although it certainly does melt

Jeez nig i dunno I thought you wanted to fit something more onto it. If you're happy with how it is then leave it. Here's mine.

Has he worked on any other games? A lot of his art makes me think of stuff like vermintide or pathologic.

Complaining about being an overpowered piece of shit in a game where you're supposed to be an overpowered piece of shit is absolutely fucking retarded.

I have no idea. I discovered his art by accident, on a book series I like (leviathan), and only after having played warframe for quite some time I found out he worked on it as well. He doesn't post commissions on his website aparently, and only had his volt piece on his blog. So I don't know how to find out…

Well looking on his website in the description of his pictures he sometime says their are for other games. Can't find any WF stuff on his site though.

I picked this up recently, what can I do for melee that's most >fun?

Melee has the best weapon variety, so kinda whatever you want. Anything look particularly good to you?

I find Obex (fist wep) to be the best shit. Now with charge attack you get super easy finishers, too.

Bring out a warframe that's built for melee like wukong, ash, excalibur (with the radial javelin aug), or atlas.

Typically when it comes to the weapons themselves, hard to go wrong with nikanas, sparring weapons, and claw weapons for melee. Especially with venka prime.

Forgot to mention to change your fully-equipped melee attack binding to left click.

TBH and unfortunately, you'll need some bandaid mods to make it useful in high-levels (primed pressure point and bodycount).
But fun? Hell yeah there are some fun weapons in this game. When I want to go for style I like the ninkondi.

>Bothering with warframe after the split the dev teams in two for this shit >playkeystone.com/

fuck

Why?

his regular form has a good design and that's pretty much it for positive qualities.

To me it's just his helmet that looks terrible.
But his body is no work of art either. little noticeable differences if compared with the original.

stop shilling this tranny

...

I don't know if it's a tranny or some guy ranking points as a girl on his channel agree it's no woman though
I'd still watch his videos though, because:
1) no bullshit talk about "look how tranny I am, we should talk about this", the channel focus entirely on its content
2) it's actually funny this is the most damming evidence that's it's not a girl

I wouldn't be surprised if in the future he addresses the subject, but so far there's no problem in watching it for what it is.

I'd cum in his ass.

Meelee discussion
I've revisited my nikana prime and decided to fidget with its mods to find some min/max exploit involving the combo counter. I had my bodycount equipped of course, but as I experimented with relentless combination, I saw my multiplier go from zero to 2.5 in just seconds, literally 10s or so. So I decided to swap bodycount for MORE DAMAGE AND STATUS and now I'd say that increasing your combo duration isn't essential to me anymore. Before this trial, I had bodycount on all my melee weapons. Now, if I can muster some slash procs with it, I'm seriously considering just going with relentless combination instead.

Shut up, I'm on console and can't be bothered to transfer my screenshots to another device.

why user
why

Cum in mine, user!~

Warbros #1
and
I advise everyone in this thread to kill themselves.

I'd say put drifting contact instead of weeping wounds, also
to what end?

But I understand your incredulity. Prior to this I had crit mods in place of status, and I think it performed slightly worse.
I had drifting contact on a much different build before this. Will try to make a direct comparison now.

The last time I built a gaming PC I was in college (circa 2009). I keep telling myself I'll build another one in the future, but I don't play much of anything anymore, and just thinking of going through the trouble of building a new PC and after that still have to troubleshoot every new game instal that I will sparsely put in it just makes me yawn.

Test results are ready
Weeping wounds is still better, because as soon as you get the multiplier to x3 you're procing with every attack, and the stacking slash procs not really help drain the enemy.
Time to kill a lvl 135 corrupted heavy gunner (only standard button mashing combo, no finishers or anything fancy) varied mostly from 21s to 26s, with one instance of 30s because the fucker knocked me down.
While all my tries with weeping wounds fluctuated around 30s, with my best time being 27s.

...

Forgot to factor that fighting various enemies scattered across a room means losing my combo even if I stop attacking to sneeze. Meaning that drifting contact (and by extent bodycount in other builds) is still essential. So I compromised halfway of what suggested and put drifting contact in olace of vicious frost. That means a bit less base damage, but in the grand scheme killing time seems to remain the same.

Nevermind, 20~24 seconds with this one, and it has drifting contact to be useful against mobs as well. Now I wanted to see how far I could go without damage mods, ended up being the best build. I promisse I'll never make blog posts again, it's just that since I had started this topic, I wanted to see it through. Autism saciated.

How active is the clan? I'm in a clan with other 8chon dudes but there's only 4 of us. I'd love to have an active clan chat to shitpost in.

IGN is Breadsmith in case I decide to join and if you have open slots.

I'm from this guy's clan

I'll join too if there's room. IGN is Sushiburger

Decently active, we have some turboautists myself included who play quite frequently.

So you got free slots or what?

I think, I'll hop on and try to inv

Newfag here, can derelict missions be solo'd at all or am I fucked no matter how much OP bullshit I stack?

You can solo any mission but trials.

What do you guys recommend for melee weapon to fit mesa's kinda theme or go with her visuals? I was thinking a dagger because muh vagabonds but those are worthless.

Yes any derelict can be solo'ed but you'll have one hell of a hard time with derelict assassination but I don't know why you'd do it. I play with randoms all the time, very rarely had problems. Even noobs are useful, as they take enemy aggro from you, and more tenno summon more enemies meaning more drops. Unless farming using a specific radiant relic, sortie spy mission (the only mission I recomend going solo), or on a raid, you won't need to bother with machmaking for anything else.

Redeemer because gunblade, or a whip because cowgirl.

whip sounds good. Gonna make an atterax.

no

yes

So is Inaros spamming sand throw and then shooting faggots from literally across the room with the shotgun melee for 100k damage and heal himself fixed yet?

Welp.

ur mom

I think they dug a hole impossible to climb out of, with riven mods. Suposedly they help balance bad weapons and bring them to high ranks. BUT getting a good roll requires a huge amount of grind, for a weapon you didn't care about in the first place, no less. And if they actually figure a way to balance bad weapons in the future sicarus prime became useable just by tweaking some numbers they will still have to deal with a lot of players who sunk countless hours in riven mods, and would they be upset if someone tried to "tone them down" to keep with the newfound balance.

This also kinda calls into question damage 3.0. If/when they ever implement it, it will supposedly make it so damage and multishot mods are obsolete so you have more room for fun mods, but then that'll just anally ravage all those who ground for good rivens with a ton of multishot and damage.

I fell for the solo clan meme so now I wonder, if I just nuke the place and join a proper thing, do I lose all the fucking formas I wasted on this idiocy? Can I get anything back?

no
It hurts, but the sooner you bite the bullet and join a clan that has all the research done, the better

Or you can be a fucking man and just get friends to join and be a leader rather than a follower

Seems pretty clear to me that you haven't used a computer in a long time if the shitty reason you wrote is the problem.

So I've heard the Pandero is 'pretty good'

Does it bring anything to the table mechanically/meta-wise that the Vaykor Marelock and the Lex Prime don't already?

My main question is that I already have potatoed/formad v.marelock and lex.p and am wondering if the Pandero is worth investing in; if not, I have other secondaries which are slightly more different (e.g. not semi-auto lowmag/high damage pistols) I could invest in first for a little more roster variety.

So really my question is; how does the pandero compare to the lex? I mainly use the v.marelock over the lex UNLESS it's some stealth/spy mission and I don't want the syndicate proc to blow cover. So I don't see the pandero replacing the marelock because the syndicate proc is excellent in general and a great qol addition to a very straightforward and effective weapon that I wouldn't really exchange for anything else. BUT; is the pandero better than the lex?

Any opening on a Holla Forums clan?

jakk kitag is the best.
especially if you got your hands on the explosive mod that deals dmg based on enemy health.
Being able to just slam into the ground and cc enemies is so much fun, although any weapon with enough impact damage will do that.

For pirated games at least that has been my experience since forever.

Buying games is a lot easier, been playing endless legend on my toaster every now and then. I don't doubt that the PC experience is very rewarding. But came a time to me when it just didn't feel like it was worth the trouble or the cost.

Is this game not shit yet

There's been improvement across the board, but the thing that hasn't and will never improve is the hell fucking grind. Better question is, why isn't there any sword&shield BP for credits on the market yet?

Guys, I think I might have actually found the worst riven of all time from today's sortie

Don't play the riven game. It's for full-blown autists. Sell it the minute you get it. Plat serves you better. Build up good mods that are universal. Rivens are the chinese overlord's idea.

What about it? And how is connected gamefaqs?

Gamefaqs had a well known white supremacist klan circle. It's members identify themselves with 3k_ before their usernames.

Watvfuk are these names

>that slow dawning realization that The Stalker will probably turn out to be an edgy-looking child

Can someone explain what the draw is of this game? My friend has been trying to get me into it, but from what I've played, it's too easy, it's a grindfest, and the movement is great, but hasn't felt useful for the easy enemies. Please tell me the combat can be rewarding so I don't go crazy from boredom

Structure and repetition basically. Just constantly working towards something is gratifing and the gameplay is fun enough to keep you going. Story is fucking shit though. As for the combat Im at 800 hours and still finding new ways to have fun

The main challenge is beating the enemy scaling through powercreep.
You grind for better gear so you can grind for better gear, and when you get the best gear, you try to beat lvl 100 enemies who have armor impossible to penetrate, but mostly for bragging wrights.
I play it to saciate my scy-fantasy-action fix. Latelly I've trying to make builds that are considered inferior by the community (my latest venture being a Chroma focused on range) and trying to make them work, or taking it to Mot and seeing how long I can last. For said Chroma, it's hard to beat the 20 minutes mark, but goddamn I'm trying to go to 30.

Kek, are there any other fayyyst frames? Which one's the fastest? I do enjoy the parkour in this game, more speed may bring me more enjoyment.

If you like fast, make the Obex. With speed mods it becomes fun to just beat the shit out of anything in your way, and it's slide melee becomes a double jump kick that makes enemies go fucking flying.

Fun fact if you use that shit on a nullifier and they dont die, they will leave their bubble behind

...

I kinda wish that stalker turned out to be this seasoned old warrior dude and is not actually a crazy edgy space kid

He isn't a child, stalker is rumored to be the suit.
Cause remember all the frames themselves are sentient as proven when your frame pulls out hunhows sword without your control.
So chances are the stalker after the orokin collapse did and went on to kill every frame/tenno it could get it's hands on.

So I need to put more forma on it once I level it up more, but what goes in the last slot for twin grakatas?

Other than hydraulic crosshairs…

I don't like the on-aim things.

So…I guess it comes down to single elemental (what would be best?) or maybe slash? to make this mainly slash? I don't fully understand the details, but I heard slash procs are really op with the latest updates so maybe that?

Dunno m8 I never stuck with that weapon, found it shitty. Isn't there a prisma version?

QUALITY

Slash procs are great as they deal DoT and stack, so they can melt enemies if you get a lot of them going. Put maybe toxin or heat dual stat mod in there for more slash procs, and so you can either bypass shields or cc them with fire.

Do you hate nullifiers? If yes, the Pandero is right up your alley.

Imo it's a flat upgrade to the Lex because it has higher DPS; you can magdump extremely fast if you need to (which deletes nullifiers) and the reload is lightning fast, which gives it the edge over the Lex who's reload its its biggest weakness.

Only catch is that unlike Lex Prime, Pandero requires a lot of forma.

Twin Grak is incredible, but the main drawback is that even with ammo mutation and carrier at the same time, the fucking things still run out of ammo. Also Prisma Grakata is only the single primary version, there is no Prisma Twin Grakata yet

I don't really play that many 'sustained' skill builds, so nullifiers don't really annoy me unless I'm frost on some mobile/defense thing and they wander into my snowglobe; I usually just slide attack them. and then drop cc or aoe to get all their now-defenseless buddies

That being said; I'll certainly give it a try. I certainly know what you mean about nullifiers being pretty damn annoying with low-mag/high damage weapons at long range.

I didn't really think of the burst function that much; that does sound useful. Usually it's a mag wasted (compounded by lower fire rates) on a lowmag/highdamage gun, so getting that over with in a single click does sound appealing.

How though?

I only have 1 free slot; I'd love to have slash and something else; but I can only really have slot OR something else.

Also, a general question;

as far as a 'utility' melee weapon. As in; something that swings fast from holster without directly selecting it and has a good slide-attack for breaking containers and finishing off enemies while you're mainly using a gun. Is broken war still #1?

I have the nikana prime too, but the attack arcs are a little less intuitive on that one, although I DO like using it for pure melee runs; I'm mainly looking for a quick activation/short animation container breaker and enemy finisher. I know broken war has been my 'go-to' for that for a while; but is there anything better now?

inb4 vengeful revenant is bad; I really like the speed of it, and the intuitive attack arcs versus other stances, and like I said, I don't really 'main' melee with this thing, but it's my current favorite 'utility' melee weapon for general content.

I'm fond of the Hirudo. It's probably the best sparring weapon. Doesn't seem to have a holster time and it heals you. If the lack of range bothers you then next thing I would recommend is the Atterax or some kind of whip. I don't really like single swords or slow heavy weapons much.

stalker's operator might be ded

Or it could just be that DE reuses assets constantly

Nezha can be fast if you build him right. A lot of his speed will come from his first ability giving a slight boost and sliding around everywhere you go since his passive gets rid of a bit of friction from doing so. Stack some speed and slide mods and you'll be drifting around like an autistic kid in an AE86.

ign Malvabutt, pls invite me c:

given username does not exist.

what's with DE's obsession with adding in a flip that not only comes out of nowhere, but also spins the opposite direction from the actual strike?

shame that machetes are still terrible, the stats on this stance would have helped to at least make machetes worth bringing along for fashion.

is it ever explained why you don't particlize the target in rescue missions but you do particlize them in capture missions?
They seem to be perfectly fine after being turned into squares so why don't we do it to people we rescue?

My guess is that it effectively kills the target's body, while keeping it's intelligence for later questioning, maybe in something similar to a cephalon, but less sophisticated.

Nope, I thought this too but during the Stolen Dreams questline you capture Maroo, who afterwards is seen perfectly fine, going back to running her Bazaar on the quest's completion.

Oh yeah. Forgot about that.
The Maroo we know is a cephalon-controlled automaton. Just another victim of the Lotus' masterplan.
What if Alex Jones existed in the warframe universe? What would he talk about on his show?

They want shit to be flashy because they saw some pro DMC4 videos and wanted their game to be just like that. Unfortunately they didn't understand how DMC works, so they just made stances objectively shit that makes you jump back and forth and locks you into animations in a game that wasn't designed for it. You know how in DMC-style action games, you have to watch enemies and use the appropriate actions? Yeah, Warframe doesn't fucking have that, enemies just instantly shoot their hitscan guns at you or hard CC you from behind.

Do you not hear the agonizing screams from the capture target?

Either way suffering now is better than putting both your and the rescuer's life on the line.
inb4 >implying anyone ever fucks up on capture missions

Goddamn, you're stupid. The capture targets only scream in pain as you're turning them into cubes. They don't scream when they're just lying on the ground. You people who use mental gymnastics to pretend that you're smart when you're actually completely clueless are so annoying.

Some capture targets don't scream in agony anyways. Maroo didn't, as an example. Additonally if it's a painful process you'd think Maroo would act as if it were more of an inconvience rather than just be salty about getting captured.

I thought the queens were connected somehow.

Is 8ch clan still alive? i would like an invite

Damn, they really succeeded in making the queens look fucking disgusting

post IGN

She's actually a QT in game. Worm tsundere loli with good VA.

Probably the elder one, too, if you run around the fortress tileset there are large openings that sort of resemble their 'throne'. My assumption is the queens are able to burrow around a tunnel system in the fortress and pop out in various locations if they need to. There's probably life support they're attached to too.

How the Lotus is controlling our minds, nothing but soldiers for a war she created. She keeps the masses of Tenno under her thumb by keeping them interested in how fashionable they are.
The children that are said to "control" the Warframes are nothing but lies meant to deceive the real operators. Those children were forged by the Lotus to keep the Tenno controlled! The real Tenno live within the Warframes, free of any "control" that is said to exist from the Lotus forged child.

Forwarded to 2nd in command

He said you're in.

I appreciate the suggestion, but range really is a big thing for me with melee weapons, I've done a few of the dual-wield and brass knuckle things, and I find myself 'missing' attacks pretty often on account of not being close enough when I initiate them. I'm usually more into the 1 handed swords (nikana arguably included) and galatine or orthos or other super-long-range shit.

The quick holster idea does sound somewhat appealing. I haven't really tried the hirudo yet, and it might be kind of fun/interesting to try out with nidus for a thematic set and that guy's mad survivable anyways, so trying some niche melee thing might be worth-wile if not at bare minimum feasible.

Regarding whips; I know the whole atterax thing, but I don't have maiming strike so it'd probably be pretty mediocre.

I've had a great time with Mios though, I use it on my saryn because A. it looks good with saryn, and B. the range on it provides excellent spore popping. Unfortunately, even though I kind of 'like' the infested bio-weapon appearance etc… I don't find it to 'jive' well with most frame designs, like the Mios looks great with Saryn, but not so much so with other frames; I tried it with nidus for a bit, didn't really like it, and I think nidus is probably the best 'infested' themed frame.


Also another general question;

Is there any special trick to doing the penta? I mastery foddered the regular over a year ago, but I got the index mod by chance, and a riven for it the other day, so I decided to check out the syndicate version.

I guess the fact that the tether grenade thing negates self damage is also a huge plus since I used to use the tonkor (mainly because of the no self damage), and while it's still certainly usable, you have to be like so careful to not kill yourself that I miss the gay abandon of crouch jumping around dropping nades everywhere and this is no replacement, but seems to be an enjoyable substitute from what I've done with it so far.

My body is ready for sybaris prime.


Your best bet is probably just sticking with your broken war in that case. Also memeing strike is not needed for the atterax, or 90% of weapons for that matter. They perform fine without it, unless you have a slide attack macro and are no fun allowed.

eh, I know what you mean, but I don't really like the way the atterax LOOKS in general, and I don't really play nekros (i have him, I just don't really enjoy playing him, I play with plenty of people who will do nekros on a farming run, but the guy doing nekros is almost certainly not ME) so the whole slash thing isn't AS important. I WILL use things that I consider 'ugly' for cheese factor, but I'm not going to use it if it isn't cheesy beyond mastery fodder.

I would not by any means consider myself a 'top tier' player or anything like that, but I have my 'go-to' sortie/trial/tactical alert shit squared away, and the biggest reason I still play is quasi-fashion/functional-frame (as in; I don't go out and buy tons of skins and sydanas and shit, but I like building up 'functional' [sortie/deep-wave viable] and 'aesthetic' [yeah; completely subjective I know] frame/weapon synergies/combos)

I will try out the hirudo with nidus. I don't really have a weapon that both 'looks good' and 'works' with him (as in; I have several things which 'work well' in general melee-wise, but none of them look great with nidus). Also the whole healing on crit idea seem interesting. It's not like nidus isn't hella survivable in general, but add passive heal on crit ON TOP of general utility lifestrike; that adds an extra layer of suitability that I am VERY comfortable with experimenting with considering a weapon-type I don't do much with in general that is also thematically appropriate.

To clarify; I'm certainly not going to start using hirudo on all my frames as my utility melee weapon, but it sounds really really nice for nidus, and I'll definitely give it a shot.

Hirudo is one of my favorites, can't go wrong with it. I do, however, wish there was a skin for it because it really does just look weird and out of place on most frames.

This silly shit is why I love this game despite the perpetual grind

When using fast weapons, faster than the key imput limit of your keyboard, you should bind the attack button to your mouse wheel
Enjoy

except his point is that that's all there is to the game

the actual mechanics are weak, the enemies are boring, the melee is total garbage and always has been

You definitely do not need maiming strike, Atterax still does massive work without it and weeping. Main downside is it takes a couple of hits to get rolling then you're good. Get a macro so you don't hurt yourself playing video games though.

Tether Grenades got 'fixed' already, they still do self-damage last I heard.

Self-damage wouldn't be a problem if it was capped at somethibg like 200 damage post-armor. Still worrysome especially for weaker frames, but far from the problem we have today. Damn, it's easier to 1hitKO yourself than kill a corrupted bombard in many cases.

fuck you're right, I read up a bit more online, and it looks like it was 'nerfed'. I guess what I heard earlier was pre nerf. I guess it's some consolation that the CC/manually triggered detonation makes it somewhat harder to frag yourself with the penta (so much so; that I really thought it was no-self damage after a while; but based on how I was playing, I wasn't really often/ever in blast range, and my penta isn't fully modded)

I agree; this was the problem a year ago, and it's still the problem now (I left the game for about a year and came back recently). The scaling's fucked up. deep wave shit is basically cheese or die. Unless this is some kind of clever platinum sales scheme via shaking up the meta to get whales to buy new shit to replace their old viable shit?

I can't really think of any better justification, but it's still kind of fucking confusing.

I mean they seem to nerf shit to kill particular meta tactics HARD, but the boltor and soma and loki and sonicor and vaykor shotty/pistol, etc… have always been and still ARE still supremely solid and effective, but plenty of other temporary contenders have been nerfed underground. Don't get me wrong; I'm not shitting on those frames/weapons, but DE's nerf targeting doctrine just seems more arbitrary and reactionary than practical.

It's like every now and then; they nerf a thing. And I go back to using my 'original' solid stuff until something else good comes out; which I use until they nerf IT, and then I go back to my originals.

It really just takes variety out of the game.

To tell you the truth, as bad as it is, I can understand why the tonkor was nerfed with self damage. It's a matter of keeping consistency with other explosive weapons. Wouldn't be a problem if we had a self-damage cap though.
Also fuck soma prime. Tenora is where it's at! Love that gun. How it melts enemies, how it has a precise sniper-like alt-fire, how good it sounds both when it fires and, especially, when reloading

Neato, I'll probably give it a try soon as I just finished building octavia.

That being said;

what the fuck is all this? I don't understand.

My specific question is; is this all purely aesthetic? Like you change the music that's played when you use certain abilities?

Or does this affect gameplay mechanically? As in; chroma power color determines element, does tweaking this stuff mod ability str/eff/dur/rng etc… stats?

I'll never be able to play Octavia on account of muting game music

I'ts mostly cosmetic unless you wanna min max your 3rd ability. You have to time your actions to the beat to get buffs, but if you just make the beat incessant then it is extremely easy to get the buffs.

Octavia's Mandachord is entirely aesthetic execpt for the melody, which is related to her metronome ability.
tl;dr you want the metronome ability to be easily reconizable so you can activate the abilities.

Yeah but it seems to be fucky with latency as well whenever there's an Octavia around. I just spam crouch until i get the cloak.

It's not latency, it's dependent on the animation starting.
So shooting feels different than crouching and jumping because the animations start differently.

Ok since I'm unlikely to play this game much anymore because of Tekken 7 (and possibly take few months break) and the fact that I have a decent amount of plat right now
trips gets gifted any market item

wew
Endura collection
:^)

So… I did a run or two, and I guess my main question is; is Octavia basically a dedicated support frame? Like can I actually use any of her skills to kill stuff directly or indirectly kill stuff faster?

Other than buffing myself


Do you need game music to play octavia? I mute it too in favor of my own playlists. I can still definitely hear the manachord customization sounds; I think octavia's music is probably tied to general SE rather than music. (Although tbh I haven't really paid that much attention to other octavias using their own OR my own, but the relative volume of the music I'm playing to the game SE stuff is such that I can barely hear 'gunshots' over my tunes.

Dragon bundle

Octavia's 1 directly kills everything in the radius shown by the circle.
Octavia's 2 lures enemies and if combined with the 1 it picks it up and carries the 1 around, meaning the damage circle now also moves.
Her 3 when combined with melee attacks makes your melee attacks do more damage, or when combined with gunfire makes your gun have multishot.
Her 4 just makes all of her other abilities better.

I just know I can't hear jack shit from Octavia when I have music muted. It's not just pure gameplay that gets fucked, it was supposed to be fun to make tunes and listen to others'.

If they had an option to specifically mute/unmute Octavia (and not just ally volume) I'd use her since I can pause foobar at any time with global hotkeys. I'd pause my own music too when seeing ally Octavia's.

Has DE aquired any new QT 3.14s for their streams ?

Or is it just "Jewish Princess" Rebecca still ?
I mean I would fuck Rebbecca, but only if Steve was tied to a chair and had to watch.

The motion capture performer for Octavia was hot, is responsible for all the sexy hip movements goin' on in WF and she got super giddy when they showed fanart of Saryn with massive tits.

fug I was way off

Octavia is the only frame I've ever purchased outright. I slogged through getting Atlas but didn't have the patience to grind her out.
No regrets.

I felt the same way but I grinded her hue anyway and after finding out she was mute I'm glad I didn't dish out the shekels.

You'd think that a frame with a musical ability would have it's own special volume slider to separate her ability from the regular BGM.
I'd chalk it up to an oversight but DE is actually dumb enough to not think ahead like that.

Hmm, I'll take a closer look at the 1 I guess, I didn't see damage listed on the description so I assumed it was some kind of minor reflect damage on a 'decoy' versus a proper damage dealer. I'll give it a shot and observe more closely what it's doing.

Well, while the melee sounds interesting, I wouldn't really use octavia for melee (as myself), and if they did like another thousand cuts esque thing or melee sorties and tactical alerts and stuff, I'd probably use a more melee-oriented frame to keep myself alive rather than bringing a support to try buff my team.

Does the multishot 'scale' well with existing multishot? I have multishot on basically all of my 'non-fodder' weapons.

Isn't 4 basically a fixed area of damage boosting? Aside from I guess stacking buffs if used with 3; how exactly does it synergize with 1 and 2?


Also with 2; I've seen other people use it, and I've used it myself, it's that roller ball thing. If 1 is some kind of damage skill; does using it with 2 make it more difficult to 'aim'? Also how exactly does damage work/scaling work on 1?

Wait? Really? Octavia's sounds are tied to music? That's kinda weird… Oh well, I've heard my own 'oc' song, it's not great, it was more designed on a simple beat which could be symmetrically reproduced over the given 'slots'. I've heard it, I'm not going to alt tab back and forth to shut off my playlist whenever I'm about to cast, and I'm not about to just listen to the in-game music in general.

I still like octavia very very much from a thematic standpoint.

When I was levelling her up we were all sure she'd get patched within a week. But like absolutely everything else she's already been forgotten and will take 2 years before DE does anything

Like I said, global hotkeys. I've switched songs, played/paused in the middle of complex parkour. You git gud at it after a while.

Trips is a tall order there friend, but I guess the ash kogake skin.

Almost there nig

I should also clarify. Post ending in trips.

I'm trying, but I don't want to blatantly roll.

Gimmie Nidus so I can skip ever doing Glast Gambit


Didn't they patch that in? I swear there's a slider just for it, though it doesn't specifically mention Octavia.

I'm not sure on the 2's damage scaling, but you don't really have to aim it. You can just toss out a 1 and then activate 2 and it'll automatically prioritize picking up the 1 first before heading towards enemies.

I'll have to check. If it made it in then it was one of the quieter parts of an update. har har har

You'll crack and do it eventually, once you run out of story missions.

Seems it was just an Ally Mandachord slider they added, not one that works strictly on your own songs.

1: It does major reflective damage, and additonally has base without reflect that's enough to kill entire crowds.
2: With good enough mods every warframe is a melee warframe.
3: I believe it does scale. There's no reason why it wouldn't, most other buffs are additive.
4: It synergizes with 1 by making the radius bigger, and synergizes with 2 by increasing the radius where it draws enemies to it.
5: 1's radius should be big enough that it doesn't matter, and the 2 after grabbing it takes it to groups of enemies, additonally enemies chase the ball due to it's effect.
6: I have no fucking clue how damage scales with this thing.

It's for allies only. Even if you turn it all the way up it's still muted if your general music is.

I haven't updated my music library in years. It's not that I 'dont like' the stuff I DO have, and could hotkey (already have all the keys on my keyboard), but the issue is that I use youtube playlists a lot now. (which is ironically something I caught on to very very 'late' in the game; as in I owned a walkman, I used napster before that shit got too big and got cut down, I had a cassette to 3.5 mm adapter so I could play a portable CD player in my 95 ford contour, and was jealous of my friends who had 20+ second non-skip players.) I've just gotten like EXTREMELY lazy on buying/torrenting new music.

Now I have a thing in the car I bought three years ago where I can apparently plug in an sd card and play all the music from it off the touch screen, but I haven't gotten around to it in the last three years (I went out and got an SD card, and an adapter to 'load it up' from my computer, but then I never got around to updating my own music library)

So there's a bunch of new rock and rap that I like that I don't have 'locally'. And then there's all of these kinds of vaporwave and edm/disco/funk mix tracks that are like 2 hours long that I like to listen to while at work (I do computer shit) or playing games, but wouldn't really listen to as stand-alone otherwise.

tldr; I'm too lazy to update my own music library so I use youtube which I guess arguably could be done with some macros or something; but like I said, I'm like pathologically lazy when it comes to this kind of stuff where there's a quick and sufficient alternative (youtube)

which is kinda dumb

I'll check 'em, but your trips are wasted without a message or some kind of smug act of derision towards another user.

fuckin nice

Impressive

welp, my tag is 3k_halogen

Ok so post your IGN and market item you want.

next dubs gets potato or slot

Am I allowed to roll even if I already got trips?

No fuck off and tell me what you want already.

I don't know what either of these are but I want one

You either get to eat for a day, or you get a PO Box

Ash koga if post ends in >5 trinity strega if post ends in

Reactors/Catalyst for Warframe/Weapon respectively. Slots for slots… for your gear. How new are you?


standby for trinity strega… whatever fuck that is

I didn't know you could gift slots and I've never heard of orokin reactors called potatos

It's the deluxe skin for Trinity. Has stick legs, a halo and a big butt flap.

one silver potato please

Darvo even calls them potatos, have you done the man of few words quest?

checked friend

I did but I guess I never got that dialog.

nice

fuck it. I'm in oprah mode. What potato/slot you want mah dude

Receipt Confirmed! Thank You Very Much! I blanked out your ign in case you didn't want it everywhere

ooh nice
a frame slot would be great

Fine. Have it ya junky bastard

Alright that's all for now. I'll probably throw another trips = any market item tomorrow a few hours before Tekken 7 unlocks for me.

For all the gay shit DE is known for, at least their game runs well.

I got it my dude, thanks.

eh, whatever.

Much appreciated ya fookin' potater nigger

idk man everything about this is telling me not to touch it with an 11 foot pole
also fuck DE for bullshitting the datamine Sybaris P stats, I was hype as fuck for it and then they took a big fat shit on its stats
It's still good, but I'm not sure if I care to replace my Dex with it now

Meh. I already played it so I like the core gameplay. Yeah they fucked up the singleplayer content and story mode sounds like it's shit but whatever. The only real load of suck is the Denuvo AIDS.

That's actually the GPU that broke on me a month after its warranty date and about 4 other reported the same thing on my local potato forums. Planned obsolescence which made me go with an AMD card… which sounds like it's more than enough to handle T7.

also here's where I got it on sale FYI gamebillet.com/tekken-7?affiliate=971341c6-ed95-4cec-8335-0dcaae8806f7 gamebillet.com/tekken-7-deluxe-edition?affiliate=971341c6-ed95-4cec-8335-0dcaae8806f7

Any suggestions for what I should throw in the last slot? I was considering Vile Acceleration, but I would prefer not to have anything which makes my damage go down.

Also, the reason I don't have a fully leveled H. Caliber is because of a lack of endo.
I dislike this new system.

Fast hands or toxin.

Reload isn't much of a problem (although maybe once I get into level 100 ares).
Why do you suggest toxin specifically?

It's just my favorite out of the base elements

These fake stats de leaves around aren't even bad, and would serve to actually make weapons viable too.

I just don't know you could even put most of the stuff they write in the datamines as a joke as if it would be op, it sounds like a cuckold ironically suggesting a loving monogamous relationship, only to be disgusted about actually being taken seriously.

Whenever I try to open up the navigation map my game crashes. What do?

I'm serious, I'd love it

Ok Tekken 7 unlocks in 4 hours. Last welfare day.
post ending in trips gets any market item
post ending in dubs gets slotORpotato of choice
ending in 69 gets color pallet of choice


Get a refund then :^)

I don't know if that was intentional but I guess you're treating yourself?

Nothing worth picking up in market right now for myself + I won't be using it since I'll be playing different game for a while now

Other than timing it like an autist… how?

forgot my pic

give me my father back

I hope so, I would be the best goy for that shit. mesa prime when

Any spots still left in the clan?

Dubs. Post IGN & what slot or potato you want.


I'll forward it to 2nd in command

Rolling

1h left until T7 unlocks

Wonder how long it'll be till the "open new tab when you click post number" bug is fixed

Dunno fam, what is something good for someone who sunk 25 hours into it and still learning the ropes?

Slots/potatos. If you want something that's high-plat cost I guess a bundle of decent weapons, or cosmetics. Boosters are ok too I suppose.

nobody got the rolls (except me kek) so I gift 100p to someone in thread & on my friend list. Have fun potato children

...

I really hate faggots who use the most meta bullshit and kill everything like simulor mirage. Why play the fucking game if you are just gonna press 4 or m1 and that's it?

you can't really blame them for rushing sorties, if you wanna mess around with sortie conditions, then your best choice is to go solo.

But where is the fun in shit like that? I mean the whole game is a fucking grind so if you don't enjoy the gameplay then why are you playing at all?

I'd like one Mesa, extra fries.

as you just said, it's the gameplay that really matters here, this game has a lot of guns, frames and accesories to mix and match in a loose but somewhat fun tps with mobility not seen elsewhere. the grind is just there as a consequence of f2p kikery. you don't really play warframe to grind, you usually get grinding over with as soon as possible so you can get back to using whatever you want, wherever you want at your leasure. and maybe go bug hunting and try to break the game

also, checked

But that's my point, why do people resort to these not fun tactics? I play the sortie to use all my "endgame" gear and have somewhat of a challenge. But where is the fun in just going banshee, pressing 4, then tabbing out?

because sorties are poorly designed as endgame content due to scaling, which limits the amount of viable guns/frames that can be brought to them. essentially nofun-zone if you aren't playing to break things.

kinda misread, meant to say that in the end, people just don't like doing sorties if it means they can't use their favourite sets, so they press 4 and alt+tab to just skip sorties. if you like playing sorties legit, then the only consistently reliable option is to go solo.

Eh, that just seems to defeat the fun of the game. I have several sets and frames for different missions and sorties. I think it's fun to have to adapt to the bullshit the game throws at you.

It wouldn't be that much of a problem if there was an actual place for minmaxing. This game has no end game since they removed the void. I don't think 98% of the playerbase gives a shit about the two raids, and sorties are not even difficult most of the time. Game needs more hard stuff imo.

Well doing infinite axi fissures can get you up to some pretty high level stuff, the problem is that
YOU HAVE TO JUST PRAY THAT THERE IS AN INFINITE FISSURE BECAUSE THEY CHANGE THEM ALL THE TIME
This is my one biggest gripe with the fissures. If I want to grind for three hours and get prime junk fucking let me.

Relics are a shit system though. There's too many fucking relics, and they're only distinguished by arbitrary letters and names. Void keys were very simple, and no new keys were ever introduced. This system just has grind within the grind. Grind the relics, grind the traces by opening trash relics, make sure you memorize which relics actually has the shit you want, and none of this is done by any actual fighting enemies it's just running around low level missions and time sinking. Yes endless relic farms are some of the best and only fun I have left these days, but most of the relic farm is just running around with Ember or an Ignis Nova/Nekros and what's the point.

Honestly I'd be fine with it if Lith fissures were 40-50, Meso 50-60, etc. Or just make the star chart scale with your level. Pretty much anything. Why am I forced to fight level 10 enemies with end game gear, when I have all the mods? I can just put my sensitivity at max with an Ignis and spin around and do defence missions that way. It's not fun if all the enemies get one shot anyways and there's essentially no risk of ever dying.

If you look, MOST relic names are distinguished by the rarest in the droplist, with the number corresponding to the the order of introduction.

Like said, you can usually get an idea of what the major item in a relic is by the letter of the relic, as it's usually the first letter of said item. A Lith S4's major item is the Saryn Prime blueprint while Lith S5 is a Spira Prime Blade and the Lith S6 is the Spira Prime Pouch. All "S" words.
There are some exceptions where the letter corresponds to one of the mid-range items on it's list instead, like Neo N2. That relic's major item is the Vauban Prime Systems so you'd think it would be a Neo V relic, but one of it's mid-range items is the Nova Prime Blueprint, so it's N instead.
The only complaint I have about the relic system is the RNG associated with cracking them open. DE claims that the different levels of polish you put on a relic will alter the probability certain items will drop but I've found that it really doesn't matter. Most of the time when I get the rare item from a relic was when I was farming traces with unpolished ones.

Still pretty stupid. Two S items and the focus of each is an entirely different object.
They could be far more creative with how they design it, instead we get this bullshit where they can't even bother to make up some names and instead get RNG-like names for them.

>Void keys were very simple, and no new keys were ever introduced. This system just has grind within the grind.
This is why I stopped playing. I had a fuck ton of keys and while grinding wasn't fun, at least I knew I'd always have keys saved up for the new stuff.
Now I have to grind relics to grind for the stuff and all my keys form before are useless when they added in new relics.
Whenever they say there're going to "reduce the grind" they always do the exact opposite.

I didn't want to trade my junk prime shit anyways

I'm actually running out of forma because I'm never forcibly given them anymore. On the flipside, I got all the prime parts I wanted that I could never get before in an amazingly short time-frame. I'm able to farm out prime weapons/frams on release day now. In what fucking world were keys better?

Is any of this shit worth buying?

I don't have any ducats at the moment, but one hell of a lot if I were to liquidate some of my junk

Ironically, the cosmetics he's selling now are the ONLY cosmetic items I own (since they're the only ones you can get outside of the platinum shop).

I Mean, I have buzz kill, but like I don't really use it often. With lifestrike, blood rush, body count, reach, fury, pressure, and then probably 2 elementals for blast or corrosive, I just don't really have space for it

Kind of the same thing with the other two slash mods; I can't think of any scenario where I'd 'have space' for those after the mandatory cookie cutter damage/multishot/punchthrough/critc/critd stuff unless I completely give up elemental damage, which I don't think would be a good idea.

What's the deal with the mask? Is that even a warframe cosmetic? Or only for operator mode?

I don't really use operator more more than once in a run and mainly just to pop zenurik/energy regen. OR for those kuva things, or sentient enemies; where you kind of have to use operator mode, but like for an extremely short time to use a move before switching back to warframe to shoot at them.

And primed heated charge? idk man, Most my pistols are corrosive or viral, I don't use heat/blast/gas/radiation on pistols at all.

They could have worked on fixing the keys, but instead they add in this new garbage system. True, it allows you to farm rarer items easily. But that just as well could have been done to keys.

It's for the potato kid and it's stupid as all hell. They aren't even physically IN the frames they pilot so there's no need to filter the air out on the battlefield. And I don't see Ordis letting the air on the ship get bad enough to warrant needing a breathing device.

Does it make all the operator "my warframe is stronk" chatter sound like Bane is saying it? I might be down for that.

I neither have the potato re-breather nor do I have the potato kid's audio enabled. Someone would have to be a good goy and test it out.
please do not actually do this

No, and such a thing will never happen since its an actually cool idea.

You'll still never be as bad as the subhuman filth who pub limbo on hieracon

Don't talk shit about fancy bird man.

if you're that faggotron that was in a run with me like 20 minutes ago I'll legit rip your dick off your body with my bare fucking hands irl

just sayin

Limbo isn't a bad frame, I've done some great MD/D sortie 3s with some good limbos. A good limbo can 'carry' a group like a good mag can carry a shield enhancement sortie group.

HOWEVER; I'm not sure if it's dumb motherfuckers who think that popping that shit is 'helpful' as a support/defensive ability, or niggas that legitimately trying to grief, but limbo is (with a sufficiently incompetent but well meaning player OR a sufficiently competent and malicious player) a fucking catastrophe for anyone else in the group.

LIMBOS DESERVE BULLYING
