  1. Mag is great.

    Her bullet jump attracts items, so you can replace Vacuum with another mod (or a pet).

    Use Pull to get a break from enemy attacks, get enemies away from a defense target, or pull additional enemies into Magnetize.

    Use Magnetize to concentrate damage on a certain enemy, shield an area from damage, stop enemies from passing a certain point, or round enemies up for destruction. It's basically Vortex and Snow Globe in one, plus damage when it ends. Use a punch-through, area-of-effect, or chain-targeting weapon, or a multi-target melee, to damage all the Magnetized enemies at once.

    Use Polarize to restore the team's shields or strip enemy armor. I don't know what you've been playing if you haven't seen it totally remove the armor from decently-leveled Grineer.

    Use Crush only if you have energy to spare and aren't in an exposed location. It's useful for stopping enemies, but it stops Mag at the same time and for almost as long.

  2. Here's my understanding of Orokin social stratification, anyone who knows more, feel free to add:

    * The 7 Emperors. Little is known about them, they are called "breathless," they might be no longer human.

    * The Executors. They would issue judgment based on the Orokin Principles. They may be immortal in ways that even go beyond Continuity.

    * Sectarius. A high ranking type of Orokin.

    * Enginus. A low ranking type of Orokin.

    * Archimedean. A scientist or inventor. Unknown whether they are of high enough rank to be in the Orokin class. Anything below is definitely not Orokin class.

    * Dax. A highly trained and respected soldier, made forever loyal to the Orokin.

    * Guardians and Legionaires. Lower level Orokin soldiers.

    * Colonists. Ordinary people. Some may not have even enough education to know what the Orokin Empire or space travel are.

    * Lorists. Clones embedded with devices that gave them special powers, looked down upon for their discomforting appearance.

    * Grineer. Slave labor, not considered people.

    I mean... I'd agree if not for the Stalker's codex, honestly. He's mentioned to be a "low guardian" specifically, and the Tenno are implied to be anything but. I honestly believe him to be a "lost" Dax, considering his extreme loyalty to the Orokin (and his colors, for that matter).

    Or he could have been a Kuva Guardian, which would make his colors even more appropriate. 

  4. Each ship must make a monthly check for any damaged ventilation grates, every other day in prison blocks and data vaults.

    Sensor regulators in vaults containing high-priority data should have Hyekka Master anti-invisibility lenses installed on their optic sensors.

    Each data vault must keep an inventory of its arc traps, sensor bars, and sensor regulators. If any vault has an unexplained loss of more than 10% of these, it must be assumed to have been infiltrated, and a security team must investigate it for exploitable deviations from the intended design.

    Long-term goal: Design a type of sensor regulator which does not move and can be installed on a hard surface: See classified Project K.M.R.A.

    Would you rather die from Nekros' Soul Punch or Oberon's Smite?

    Soul Punch, so I could be a super cool ghost.

    Would you rather eat only Martian Oasis Jellyfish for a week, or work a full-time job in the Ceres Shipyards for a week?

    I'd argue that Ivara would also be in CC (and support) because of noise and sleep arrows (and stealth arrows and dashwires). Atlast should probably be in CC category, having stone walls to block off doorways, and that gaze that staggers and slows. Not sure what makes Saryn Crowd Control (apart from the molt maybe drawing enemy fire), but she might be in Support with her augment (but not quite sure about that). Nekros could be tanky with that "shadows take damage for me" augment.

    I wouldn't really count most augments for this, but I guess it's debatable.

    You're typing in English to start with, just tagged as Tenno. The translation really only goes in one direction. There can be a standard mapping from English characters to Tenno sounds and the translation back to English is just the chat message without the tags.

    If there's a standard algorithm for English characters to Tenno characters, the Tenno text will be wrong. TennoTyper is an existing English to Tenno converter, and here's how it handled the first five words of this reply:

    This Tenno text would be pronounced as, "if th*ehress aa standaard algarith*m." Close, but not correct. (The *'s mean in those places a 'hissing th' is written instead of the intended 'humming th.') The correct Tenno translation is:

  8. I'd argue for moving a couple of these. Mag and Volt are CC/Support for their defensive abilities. Zephyr is a CC/Tank with Turbulence. Trinity is a Support/Tank with Link. Nova seems like CC/Support/DPS with how she buffs damage. I don't know what kind of CC Ash does, without his augments at least. Excalibur is DPS/CC with Blind, and Ivara is DPS/Support with Cloak. Chroma might be Support/Tank/CC with his floaty dragon thing. I don't see how Inaros does DPS, all his damage sources are pretty low. Rhino is CC/Tank/Support with Roar. Mirage is DPS/CC more than DPS/Support with how little Sleight of Hand is useful. Atlas isn't a tank as much as a DPS/Support that can avoid damage in certain conditions.

    Drakk, cause they are less annoying than the cat freaks. Also, Hyekkas and Hyekka Masters are ugly.

     

    Would you rather listen to 20 hours of non-stop Manic laugh or play without any sound (including any music, sound effect and vocal chat, even if it's not coming from your PC/Console) for two weeks?

    The latter, I don't really need sound to play.

    Would you rather live in the Warframe universe as your real-life self, or live in the real world as an (autonomous) warframe with no powers?

    Well then, if that's the case, DE would have to build a color palette(s) around the total number of different pbr metallic textures within the game and then separate them into different schemes, like silver, gunmetal, gold, bronze, etc. Still doable, though not as much.

    Not really. Basically, the metallic-ness of what you're painting is determined by the properties of the model's maps. If the model has metal, it will always be metal. If the model has nonmetal, no color palette could make it metal.

    Regular Vor, because by the time corrupted Vor stopped talking I would have died from old age.

    Would you rather only play as unmodded zephyr or nezha with all run speed mods and slide mods?

    Nezha, super fun sliding time!

    Would you rather get to nerf any one warframe, weapon, or enemy in a way of your choice once a month forever, or double your chance of getting Platinum discounts forever?

  12. First, maintaining Kubrows is not such a huge burden even on new players, thanks to stasis. The Incubator tells you exactly what stasis is used for, you can see it the moment you finish incubating your Kubrow.

    Second, moving the quest means new players lose access to Kubrows even if they want one. "New players might not know it's optional" isn't really a good argument since generally in games you assume you can do what you want until the game restricts you.
