Anyone else feels like tomorrow's update is gonna be the make or break for you?

I've got acceptable AMs for the characters I use very quickly when AMs were first introduced back in November (Viessa, Blair, Sharen, and a few others I rarely use due to poor performance with my favorite builds/trans mods, namely Valby, Freyna and Harris).

Ever since, I've been just logging in once or twice a month to chase the new toy for mastery, but I haven't bothered with the new weapon that was added in June, I think. Maybe I don't care about mastery anymore.

I watched the devstream, but that didn't get me excited for the update or Raven. I'll still give it a fair try, at least until the mega dungeon is released (I think it releases next month, but someone correct me if I'm wrong).

Overall, I enjoy the game, but most of the time it just feels like there's never anything to do or a reason to even login. All the events have lackluster rewards. I can't even remember the last time I wanted to play to take part in an event.

If season 4 doesn't manage to hook me, I'm afraid it's time I drop the game. It just feels like it evolved into something that might not be for me anymore.

Anyone else in a similar boat?

Returning after 2 years. Is it possible to clear chapter 19 and on without unlocking 6* evo?

I wanna catch up to the story before the game shuts down, but don't feel like doing the side stories, pvp and other game modes.

1000 sculptures. 20 from archon hunt, 980 from maroo+random missions. Final goal achieved. I'm free from these mines.

I said I was gonna take a break, but ultimately decided to go even harder on this grind by farming a short mission for sculptures instead.

4 days ago, I hit 500 sculptures. Today, 1000. That's 125 sculptures a day (averages at 178,700 endo per day, if fully socketed).

According to Maroo, there's 1,281,475 endo in this screenshot (1,776,675 endo if/when I manage to get cyan/amber stars for all of it).

I can finally retire my loot Limbo, play other content and games and chase other personal goals in-game.

500 sculptures. 20 from archon hunt, 480 from maroo+random missions. Final goal now is 1000 sculptures, but I'm taking a break, because I'm tired of running max range golden instinct Limbo for sculptures and cyan/amber stars.

In Scoria's Angel, using the Omni to teleport back to the railjack at the end of the mission causes the game to double the end of mission rewards

Already posted in the forums.

I don't know if this works on The Kuva Wytch mission, but it does on Scoria's Angel.

If you use the Omni at the right time, you get teleported back to the railjack and this causes the game to roll the end of mission reward table again, giving you double the amount of talents.

This is pretty serious. There's gotta be some people abusing this to farm and sell arcanes a lot faster than intended.

Reached 300 sculptures. 20 anasa from archon hunt, the rest is from Maroo and mostly finding them in the wild. Next goal is 500 sculptures.

[Q][PS5] How much does Aya usually sell for?

A clanmate told me they sell for 6:30p, but I just spent the last 5 or 6 hours spamming trade chat and got no buyers. Does it only sell at that ratio on the day a new resurgence starts? Or was my clanmate way off the mark?

Am I crazy for thinking Sentinels need a buff? More specifically, to their weapons.

A long time ago, Sentinels were the go-to companion because of the utility of Vacuum, which beasts still didn't have. The only useful beast was Smeeta by a long margin.

Fast forward to today and now beasts not only have Vacuum, but they also have moddable claws that deal decent/good damage as well as access to Loyal/Resourceful/Prosperous Retriever mods, while Sentinels still don't have many good weapons to pick from (I can't speak for MOAs and Hounds).

IMO, most sentinel weapons need a buff and every companion should have access to the Retriever mods (everyone loves getting more loot in a looter shooter, even when they don't need it).

I don't know about y'all, but I'd run Sentinels a lot more often with these changes.

It's crazy we still can't use the base skin of a gun on its prime variant in the big 2026

I can understand not doing it for other variants, like Kuva, Prisma, Wraith and so on, but it should already be a thing for prime weapons, considering we can already use the base skin of frames on their prime counterpart.

I'll probably delete my Athodai Prime and stick with the base Athodai, because the Prime looks freaking awful.

Rant: I hate Combo Duration

I just hate it and how it's so short.

Getting to and maintaining a 12x combo multiplier is such a pain, because you basically can't play around with your primary and secondary for a few seconds without your combo going to waste.

I know there's the combo decay from Naramon, but that should either be standard for Combo or combo duration should straight out be removed from the game.

I am seriously considering removing Blood Rush from most of my builds, because I barely make any use of it.

Any frames you regret building recently, because you didn't find them satisfying/fun to play after dumping some formas in them? Mine gotta be these 2 and maybe Nidus.

And for the love of all that's holy, I'm NOT talking about them feeling weak, at all. I wrote "satisfying/fun to play".

I was really hoping I'd enjoy Ash and Garuda, bc I love Garuda Prime's design and I could make a Batman fashion with Ash and the Tsukuyomi skin and Repala syandana, but, unfortunately, they aren't for me.

I'm still on the fence about Nidus. If DE lets me hold 3 to insta-link to my companion, then he gets fashion and a loadout slot. Until that changes, I find him annoying to play.

I built Ember before Ash and love playing her. Then I moved to Ash and now I'm not as motivated to build new frames, kinda afraid I won't like them (eventually I'll get over it tho).

What about you?

Vectis Incarnon: Ealr Impressions

Unsurprisingly, the incarnon form also demands headshots. Headshots detonate in a nice AoE after a short delay, dealing damage and applying cold to enemies caught in the explosion.

​

I tried an acuity build and a multishot build, without Galvanized Aptitude, with a CC and CD riven. Acuity build dealt more damage on the enemy hit by the headshot, but the multishot build dealt more damage with the AoE. So, you're gotta pick which one is more valuable to you, single target damage or AoE damage.

​

The innate cold from incarnon form is really helpful, because it makes the enemies caught in the explosion sitting ducks for subsequent headshots. I play on console, so this makes aiming for headshots a lot easier.

​

If you already got the Vectis Incarnon, share your first impressions and tips, please.

Edit: something worth mentioning, the explosion AoE deals two instances of damage, so 2 stacks of cold are applied to each enemy caught in the AoE with the acuity build and 6-8 stacks of cold in the multishot build.

Vectis incarnon: Am I missing something here? +200 base damage seems a lot better than +100 base damage and a measly 20% multishot.

Helminth aside, should I get rid of Warframes I never intend to use?

I like keeping one copy of each warframe just in case they become a near obligatory frame for an activity, like Chroma was during the eidolon's first few months.

​

However, with archimedea being a thing, I'm being punished for hoarding warframes.

​

In this case, should I just sell warframes I never intend to use? I don't use them just because I don't have fun playing them, so I don't wanna dump resources and learn their kit just to play them once in a blue moon.

OMFG, I'M SHAKING. I rushed the research just out of curiosity and got this.

There's a blueprint in Hunhow shop for 12 of each currency. Takes some orokin cells, nitain and argon crystal to craft. You receive FUCKING WAR PRIME after crafting it.

NGL, It was pretty fun exploring the new missions for the hidden signas, Karotic and Kyzen. DE, please do this more often.

Any hyped and highly praised games that should be right down your alley, but never piqued your interest for some or no reason?

For me it's gotta be Chrono Trigger.

I can't put my finger on it, but I never felt like playing the game. It's praised a lot as one of the best turn-based RPGs, available even on mobile for a low price, but I just don't see myself ever playing it.

What about you?

[REQUEST] Looking for some number-go-up premium games, without ads or IAPs

Got a doctor's appointment tomorrow and I need something to distract me in the waiting room for 1-3 hours.

I'm looking for something without ads or IAPs, can be a paid game. Not necessarily looking for a storyline or something to play daily/long term, just some distraction to pass the time.

Number-go-up/idle games would probably be a good fit.
