Definitely Chroma. He's wearing one of the buggers as his pelt, and Vex Armor has a nice thematic consistency with the buffs scaling with damage received. On top of that "blade and gun" works quite nicely with a healing Furis and a Glaive, which conveniently are fantastic weapons for Chroma.

Brought my clan into ODD a few days ago, 2 hydroids, a nekros, Oberon because Ancient auras can go whistle, Smeeta kavat, drop booster and drop chance booster, whole nine yards. 35 waves, I walked away with 24 Orokin cells. Plus, we garnered about six hundred mutagen samples for Hema research while we were in there. Might be near the high end of RNG, but still - worth a shot.

Your Nikana Prime build is pretty heavily borked. Using Energy Conversion, Arcane Pendragon, and Power Drift will allow you to hit 100% status with Chromatic Blade augmented Exalted Blade using only 90% elemental mods on Exalted Blade. If you don't have access to Pendragon, or if you're like me and prefer Handspring to Power Drift, 1 dual stat mod on Nikana Prime (or any melee weapon, it's just a mod stick) will put you at about 98% status chance, which is still perfectly fine. Additionally, status and attack speed make beautiful music together. That buzzkill is doing literally nothing for Exalted Blade. Drop it like a bad habit and slap on (Primed) Fury instead.
Make those changes and you'll have one hell of a powerful weapon on your hand. Additionally, Nikana Prime performs perfectly adequately with my proposed mod setup on it, if you're not full timing Exalted Blade.

While there are certainly workarounds to make it easier, this is a fantastic QoL suggestion and I agree it should definitely be implemented asap.

No idea, but yeah, time for a support ticket.

Maybe you have an issue where your scanner is just not working?
Yeah, my scanner's just not working. Helios will scan stuff (obv that isn't completed in the codex), Chesa works, but my scanners don't. Can't scan Cephalon fragments or anything :/

Just make sure you scan it to completion - it should beep (make a noise). The green colour will be removed if scanned.
Oh dear, this is a bit troubling. So, it's been green, then the color gets removed, and then it goes right back to green, and no scans accumulate
3 hours ago, krc473 said:Also, make sure you are actually scanning the correct threscone (currently day, so I assume you are).
Yep, verified. Didn't want that particular egg on my face ;)

Yeah, I just really don't like to submit support tickets without opening up a thread here first, just in case it's something simple that I overlooked.
3 hours ago, (PS4)CaseFace8 said:Is it only threshcones
Well, I haven't had much reason to scan much else, so so far, yes. I suppose I could try to find another ingredient that my codex is capped on and see if I can reproduce the error with a different item or if it's specific to threshcones. Codex is capped on moonlight threshcones as well, and it's night right now anyway, might as well give that a shot and see if the same thing happens. Edit: yep, same thing. Moonlit just flash green on both scanners as well.
Edit 2: Gave this a try. Worked, and gave me scan points. Will have to see if it holds true for sunlit as well, but optimism rising. Thanks! ...Still though, this is a workaround at best :/

Ooooo hadn't thought of that. Thanks! I'll give that a shot when I get back from physics.

Yeah, I have all the widgets. Had a feeling that might be the problem, which was why I grabbed the regular codex scanner and tried with that instead. Unfortunately, the same thing happened with the codex scanner as with the synthesis scanner.

Hello! Took a break for a little over a year and Im trying to catch up. So, I picked up Silver Grove, but I'm stuck on the Nightfall Apothic.
Foundry
8/2 Dusklight Sarracenia - so that's good
6/6 Moonlight Dragonlily - good on this too
11/12 Sunlight Threshcone - need one more of these
Problem being, the sunlight threshcones won't pick up. They were maxed in my codex before I quit, unlike the other two plants. I've scanned them today with both the synthesis and codex scanners, and while the scanner recognizes them and highlights them in green, neither scanner (nor Helios, but that's expected since my codex is at 12/12) will actually pick up scans. Any help would be appreciated - or verification that I am indeed stuck, so I can submit a support ticket for it. Thanks all!
PS: Have tried both capture and exterminates, have restarted the PS4 and done it again, have ditched Helios and brought synthesis or codex scanners.

The start of the price dumping, at least on PS4, correlated pretty strongly with the end of the school year. Higher population of sellers, especially one that's skewed towards a population that doesn't have the greatest understanding of time is money, is of course going to drive prices down. Just take advantage of it, buy stuff on the cheap, and when the trade channel population goes back down (i.e. start of school year), reap the profits.
As a benchmark, ember is going for roughly 600 for us. As a slight tangent, keep in mind there's a strong likelihood she's coming back at Christmas. Inb4 new starchart is going to reopen the vault, because no, it isn't.

Looks really neat, and definitely seems to solve the problem of the same mission on the same tileset over and over. I also like the pulling of fangs of key scammers. It was never an issue for me, but it made recruiting more toxic than need be, and seeing complaints about it on the forums was an irritation I'm glad to see will soon be a thing of the past.
Criticisms:
I really hope it's just semantics, because otherwise it strongly seems like playing solo seems to shaft you out of a pretty major portion of the new system. Rather disappointing for me, as Void farming is one of my "knock it out when no one's on" kind of things. This also points out a disturbing trend, as solo Focus farming got hit pretty hard several months ago. Is it a co-op game? Sure! But it's also a co-op game with a solo mode.
I'm playing a lot less these days (probably like 2 hours on average compared to um... yeah, would rather not say), but I've got hundreds of keys I'm never going to use, and I'm a warlord. Currently, one of the things I'm logging in for is trying to actually grow my clan, and sponsoring keys for my little newbies feels good, and engages them more in the game by removing a portion of grind until they're hooked. Things like sponsored runs seem to have been forgotten in the (certainly laudable) attempt to screw scammers over.
Not to don my tinfoil hat, but one reward from 4 keys (even with the chance to choose) isn't necessarily as good as 1 reward from 4 keys. If nothing else, I see this making prime junk a bit rarer, and that's the best case scenario.
Dis last one's a large issue for me, so I'm going to bold it for emphasis:
If the cap on Luminous is 100, it seems very, very disreputable to have the highest degree of enhancement using Luminous be 100. I get it, you guys are trying to put resource caps in, but the lack of wiggle room is very disconcerting.This all comes with the standard caveat of wait and see... but that caveat is getting flimsier and flimsier, as the negatives do unfortunately appear to be borne out when the changes occur.
@[DE]Drew, thanks for giving us a peek at what's coming! Even (actually especially) with drawbacks or nerfs, open communication really helps manage expectations, and these Dev Workshops are great. Thanks!

As others have said, it's a double grind wall currently as well - especially with those T3 keys. I'm cautiously optimistic, as while it's a rework, and therefore a chance to improve on what's there for us, it's also a chance to attempt to obfuscate changes that make it harder to obtain and continue the push towards encouraging RMT purchase of primes. As the coin could fall either way, there's no real point debating over it, we'll just have to wait and see.

Surprised nobody's said the Izvara Syandana yet. Looks real good depending on the color scheme

Batman cosplay.Alternately, red and gold color scheme with gold energy with the Hexis or Veil syandana and a Steel Meridian sigil (the basic one) across the chest makes for some pretty decent Flash cosplay. Just moved, no idea where my USB drive is, so can't do screenies, sorry.

Because Rumblers are hilarious for about 30 seconds, and spamming his first gets old even faster than spamming Bladestorm, even if the numbers are schoolgirl giggle worthy. And he's just ugly. I use him for about 1 sortie mission per month, and he goes from exciting and fun to bored out of my mind inside that mission.
Actual criticism: Long casting animations, the Rumblers are just a big pile of stupid, being locked into a "breath" attack is just as annoying as it is on Chroma, and my playstyle doesn't really work with the walls. Additionally, personally, the whole kit just doesn't feel like it fits together at all. Just feels very... fractured. Like it needs some kind of metamorphosis.
Still, I wouldn't say he sucks. Clunky, ugly, and don't particularly like him, yes. Sucks? Nah, just not my thing. The biggest thing I like about him is making other people's day by shredding the Golem in mere seconds. And I'll admit, he's got one of the best passives in the entire game.

If you've got a thing for Chroma and blast procs, Steel Meridian gears are a much better fit. 25m radius, unaffected by power range mods, the SM blast proc opens to finishers, and the armor buff gels beautifully with Chroma's buffs (in particular Ice, though a fire Chroma against Infested gets tons of mileage out of augmented PDC's). Once the level gets high enough, and especially if you're running a booster, the syndicate proc will be going off essentially immediately as soon as the cooldown wears off.

Baro is explicitly a resource sink for end game players. If a player can't get to a planet behind an MR lock of 8(!), that player isn't his target market.
Dis. 528 R5 cores to max a Primed Mod. It's for vets. If you (non-specific) haven't done the legwork, you don't deserve the reward. OP, to respond to you (specific) - as a MR21 with over 2000 hours, it's not fair, and is in fact downright insulting, if MR were to have no reward. However, prime junk easily goes for 2p a pop when Baro's in town. If you (back to non-specific) have the credits, you can very easily obtain all of Baro's tradable stock by the time he leaves, and for quite possibly less equivalent cost.
I hate English. Not enough pronouns -.-

Oh god I would have lost it at this. Neck beard nerd rage just literally everywhere.
Fae would have gotten my vote, had I been able to, though I would have suggested Morrigan.
The abbreviation is going to be problematic in recruiting chat though XD

- We’re adding a 3 Forma pack for 35 Platinum.
- A 30 Day Resource Booster will available for 200 Platinum.
The only suitable response to these is hngghhh.
However, you guys really need to just flat out remove the credit bundles. They're a blatant ripoff. If you all insist on keeping them, for those prices, you need to add at least one extra zero to each bundle. But really, they should just be removed. They're nothing but a blatant plat trap for newbies - something you all've been pretty good about staying away from (for example, removing the paid revives). Do the right thing DE.
-
Wraith Twin Vipers have a catalyst installed. Potatoed, forma'd, or ranked prevents a weapon from being tradable. If Baro ever sells them, they'll probably be tradable.
-
Lex Prime does obscene amounts of damage, enough that, personally, I'm quite comfortable giving up a little damage for a utility mod. My personal preference is to slap punchthrough on it, but reload would definitely make the weapon a little more user friendly. That last mod slot really does come down to personal preference.
-
Honestly, it would fix so much if they just gave you the blueprints, and a catalyst/reactor for everything. You bought it, what's it to them if you trade it?

I mean... guilty as charged here, personally. My "A" configuration is 294% power strength and I usually run Ice, I glaive stomp, etc etc. But he doesn't really need all that power, and I've had a whole lot of fun with him built for more efficiency and duration doing stuff like ODD, with Everlasting Ward to hook up my teammates and Effigy to guard the pod from the Infested. But if not Chroma, I'd have to second the Excalibur recommendation. From his codex entry to his sentient slayer skin to his ability to just rip through Conculysts and Battalysts, he's pretty darned solid.
