So /v/, help me out.
I just got warframe on advice from a friend, and I'm a pretty mediocre player at best. My friend and I are about to jump into some really difficult missions to power level me, but it'd be pretty good to hold my own after I close the gap a bit.

So /v/, how do I git gud?
>>
>>329582537
Its not about skill. Its about gear. They want you to pay money for good shit. Otherwise be ready to grind.
>>
Build Valkyr.
Build any variation of Nikana
Look up builds for Valkyr and Nikana
Congrats, you win all of warframe.
>>
I am bracing for a grind.
>>
>>329582710
This is mostly true. The game is very pay to not grind. The only thing that cannot be truly bought (without trading) are prime weapon parts.

However, I enjoy the game casually anyway. I still find it fun, and play it about once weekly.
>>
leveling is irrelevant in that game
look for an up-to-date warframe and weapon tier list, grab one that's not out of your reach, then farm mods. and materials. and void keys. then more warframes for versatility. then more weapons. then farm the void. then buy play when you get a 75% login discount. then buy potatoes because everything is useless without them. then just grind. and farm. forever.

That thing was only good in 2015. Nikana variants and Soma Prime are best in slot main and melee weapons.

Build a tonkor. Its like MR3 from the market. There, you are endgame ready. If you farm some good mods for it like serration, hellfire, cryo shot, vital sense and point strike you can go into sorties and kill lv100 right now.

Ivara's ass is obstructed by those transparent whatevers. While Valk's is clean. From what I've seen SarynP also has a good butt, but goddamn that helmet though. Original skin and helmet are so much better.

The amount of Grind needed in this game is insane, don't bother.
>>
>>329582537
Get mods. Depending on what frame you use and how you want to play them you'll need different ones. You may also need Forma's and Orokin Reactors.

For your weapons, the must-have mods are Serration, Heavy Caliber, and Split Chamber. From there you add in mods based on what your weapon can do, be it elemental damage, crit damage, etc.

Good luck getting a lot of the mods you need, though. Most of the good ones come from Orokin Derelicts, which have a piss-poor chance of dropping anything good. If you have mods or parts to sell on the market, then that may be your best bet.

Don't do this. It's a good way to ruin a game. Just play it organically, from the beginning. Yeah, your friends might not want to play with you while you're learning the ropes and leveling up, but you'll have a more enjoyable experience in the long run. Most games are about the journey, not the destination, and that's especially true in the case of Warframe.
>>
>>329583834
soma is bad now? how fucking bad is the powercreep in this game lmfao i'm so glad I stped playing
>>
>>329584776
Grinding affinity the regular way is awfully slow and it only determines how many mods you can slot in, so why not ease the pain?
And in case of warframe there's just no destination at all, only grind.
>>
>>329584935
No, Soma is not bad. They're just comparing it with complete cheese weapons.

Soma is still extremely solid for everything
>>
>>329582537
The only git gud you can git is quitting the game, the endgame consists of replaying the same couple missions every day with morons and multi region jewing in trading chat.

Stop, uninstall, be happy you didn't get too deep into this shitfest.

Have you fools never played an mmo before?
Every mmo requires grind, old korean mmos required yout to grind for a month just to gain a level. Look up some Ragnarock Online grind stories, warframe is piss easy compared to that.
The only thing that annoys me are rotation C drops on survival and defense missions.
Shit is annoying as hell.
>>
>>329582537
Grab Loki.
Build for permastealth.
Get to Void and do vault runs until your hands fall off.
Grind to MR 5 asap and get Tonkor.
>>
>>329585252
What I'm saying is, learn the game first. Once it starts to feel too repetitive and grindy, THEN look into powerleveling or w/e.
>>
>>329585598
>Build for permastealth.
or build for range and be a disarm loki

Grats, now you are the best addition to a sortie or justa bout anything else that requires CC.
>>
>>329585508
Soma is one of the best weapons you can get your hands on at relatively low MR. Of course it gets outclassed the higher up you go because of poor ammo efficiency.
>>
http://4chan.org/vg/wfg

You git gud by not playing. If you don't like to grind or farm hard than a Korean mmo then this is not the game for you.
>>
>>329585738
Yeah, the end game for Loki is Irradiating Disarm build, but you'll need some good Vault / Nightmare mods for it.

I soloed everything in T4 well past DEAC with maxed disarm. Been a while though, maybe it's not that effective now.
>>
>>329585565
Warframe is way worse, on korean MMOs you usually grind and that's it, grind to level, grind for gear, etc, it's a direct grind.

Recently i tried to play warframe again and wanted to make some new weapons so i looked it up where to get the mats, i don't remember exactly what it was but i had to grind some boss so i could get mats to make a one time use item so i could access some mission so i could grind for the mats, i had to grind so i could grind, that's ridiculous.
>>
>>329586324
Its still is, people are just too retarded to figure out that killing shit in non exterminate/survival sorties is the last thing you want to do.

So you admit to not playing any mmo ever. A grind to unlock the grind to level a weapon more efficiently which you were grinding half a year to perfection only for it to break during the upgrade so you could start that grind all over again. You have no idea.

Note, I'm not defending warframe's retarded design. I'm saying the norm for mmos is way worse.
>>
>>329588160
Don't know man, i played a lot of MMOs and still play, grinding to unlock a dungeon or something is ok, the situation i explained is different, i remember now, i was trying to make a Mesa, so i had to farm for the Mutalist Alad V Assassinate Key so i could drop the blueprints, so i had to wait for a invested invasion to get the coordinates, get all the rest, wait 1 hour to make the key to have a chance to drop a blueprint and farm every thing again to make another key, don't know if the drop rate of the blueprints is good or bad since i gave up after finding out about the grinding.

>>329582537

No skill can make up for mods. You need the right mods. The only way to get them is from your friends, grinding and getting lucky, or buying them from other people.

>>329590820
Just because it isnt one of your shitty gook games with 0.0000000000000001% drop rates doesnt mean its not a grind game.

Warframe is a shallow game with no content or challenge. The only thing you can do is grind for the sake of grinding.
>>
>>329590820

I play Dungeon Fighter Online, a game so grindy even people who spend thousands still have to grind to get shit.

Warframe's not the same, but it's close.

> complaining about grinding in warframe

Are you guys for real? The only thing you do in warframe is grinding good gear so you can grind fir even better gear. The entire game is one huge timesink and collectathon.
How can you even complain about grinding, when it is the entire point of the game?

If you have friends, get together for some survival missions, use mic chat and chill. This is how you warframe.

Now you can kill Phorid in two.
>>
>>329597095
I hated that too and it put me off the game for a long time.

Recently I actually started to really get into it out of some miracle of giving it a second chance.
The waitgating doesn't really bother me anymore once you get into a rhythm of getting something new, then as you're leveling up those new things you're getting the materials to make another new thing that'll be ready to use by the time you max level the shit you already have.

It just takes a while to get the resources to get to that point.
>>
>>329590820
The mastery system locks you out of better equipment until you reach a certain level. Power creep ensures that most of the earlier weapons are far weaker than newer weapons.

The only way to increase your mastery and get decent weapons is to grind up weapons and Warframes.

If you're a F2P player it's going to be a while before you get good enough equipment to game the market for plat. You'll have two Warframe slots and I think 8 weapon slots. Depending on how many events you do you MIGHT earn a weapon slot for placing high on it when they give you the 1st/2nd place rewards.

You're going to have to waste time crafting inferior weapons in a game where location determines difficulty, going beyond DEAC like late T3/T4 missions and high-level areas means needing broken setups to counter the unbalanced gameplay and RNG determines how long it takes you to find the mods that you need to make your weapon/Warframe viable.

This is as much grinding as any JRPG/MMO, it's just in a game that isn't one of those.
