  1. If this article is to be believed : https://www.pcgamesn.com/warframe/1999-tennocon-interview

    Reb said "But, inspiration-wise, I really wanted to re-re-do the Dark Sector that was made – or not made!”

    Basically, if you know a little about the development of Dark Sector, they couldn't exactly craft the universe and the story like they wanted for various reasons, and rather than redo it or do a sequel, they took inspiration from it and made Warframe, which was much closer to the sci-fi universe they wanted.

    There have been many theories since the early days of Warframe that Dark Sector is somewhat canon to Warframe (from before the Radiation Wars ;) ), with the Technocyte Virus, the name Tenno, etc.

    Seems like DE is leaning on that, making Dark Sector canon to the universe of Warframe, or rather a revised and reworked version of it, with its own story and universe probably closer to what they originally wanted while keeping the ambiance and time frame, and including some new ideas, with Arthur being a prime exemple, clearly being the equivalent of Hayden Tenno, but with a different name and a suit clearly closer to an Excalibur warframe than Hayden's suit. They're going back to the roots of Warframe in some way.

    There are many, many ways they can make that work, like a distant past with the origins of the Technocyte (the Orokin already had the Infestation in cold storage by the times of the Old War, but there is no mention of previous uses), warframes (Excalibur was the first after all) and maybe the Void? Maybe Ballas didn't have to go that far in research to develop the first warframes? Maybe Dr. Entrati is the Man in the Wall rather than Wally being the Conceptual Embodiment of the fear of the Void of Albrech? Maybe Albrecht is Dr. Entrati, and maybe he started searching about the Void (which was deemed pure fantasy by the Orokin at the time) to "go back home", because his presence in the Warframe Universe is due to him being transported into it due to some kind of Void incident in the 1999 universe where he originates from (I would see the "Little Bengel" nickname working well in the 1999 universe), and he somehow managed to link both worlds together? Maybe that's what he was hiding from is daughter?

    Or maybe the Warframe Universe is simply being a Conceptual Embodiment that originate from the 1999 universe, like Duviri is in the Warframe Universe?

    Personally, rather than any of that, I think it might rather be some form of Eternalism, since it allows the liberty of "alternates realities" and that Time is a big part of how it's supposed to function. Like in the previous exemple of my spitballing session, even Duviri is no simple Conceptual Embodiment, but rather the Conceptual Embodiment originated from the mind of an alternate version of us, under the concept of Eternalism, linked to us by the Void. Furthermore, seems like the Cosmic Clock have quite the spot in that story, further linking all of that with Time. That way we can have parallels or even interactions without the 1999 universe being the source of everything Warframe.

    But honestly I'm just theorizing, I know no better that anyone else that doesn't work at DE or get early information directly from them. Heck, I'm not in that part of the game yet, I got most of my information from articles, documentaries and passing way too much time on the wikis, so my guess is maybe even less educated than those who played up to the latest point in the main story of Warframe or those who played Dark Sector.

    Also, sorry if that is a little hard to understand. This is basically rambling going in all directions, referencing rather scattered and niche informations and English is not my primary language.

    If there's one thing to take of all of that, it's that I'm rather excited for the future of that game. ^^

  2. Hi,
    Ruinous Extension and Sinister Reach have been made exilus mods in update 30.5 but this haven't been reflected in Warframe Builder yet.
    Also, thank you for your work. It greatly helped me designing a lot of my builds over the years.

    • TYPE: UI and Menus
    • DESCRIPTION: Can't access the Plexus after unlocking the Archwing and not having (yet) constructed your own Railjack since the various consoles allowing to configure it don't have any interactable prompt until you own a Railjack
    • REPRODUCTION: Try interacting with a console to configure your Plexus after unlocking the Archwing and not having (yet) constructed your own Railjack
    • EXPECTED RESULT: Get an interactable prompt to access any compatible console
    • OBSERVED RESULT: No interactable prompt appear and thus the console remain inaccessible through any mean of my understanding
    • REPRODUCTION RATE: Every time until you own a Railjack

    Ahhh yeah I dont know the exact drop chance on orbs.  Its been a long time since I played a looter but I think energy orbs are probably on the rarer side...I dont remember ever seeing piles of energy orbs like I do with Gara =P.

    For Hydroid you should definately be using zenurik.  His tentacles are not a constant drain so you can totally regen your energy between casts.  I never used Hydroid much.   If he is tanky you could also go HA/Rage.  Your tentacles only stop so many so he could totally get beat on to regen his energy.  Hydroid tend to sit on their butt and let the enemies come to them though,  Zenurik would serve you way better for that.  

    Thanks, but to me it's more about understanding the mechanics of Pilfering Swarm to know if it will affect my weird but fun Orb Hydroid build than building an efficient Hydroid.

    There are sooooo many things that can affect energy orbs man....  Is your overall question "How do I get energy?  cuz thats what it seems like.   There are mods that affect it,  warframe abilities that affect it,  arcanes that affect it,  focus schools that affect it,  other people,  there are gear wheel items, pets............. 

    You got specific warframes you want to ask about??  

    For tanky frames your best bet is to use Hunter's Adrenaline or Rage.

    For heavy/spammy ability casting frames your best option is zenurik focus school. 

    Dethcube sentinel can be augmented with a mod that makes him drop energy orbs(highly recommended to use with deth machine gun or artax laser)  

    Not going into all the options because they are highly specific.   What frames you want help powering?? 

    It's more to determinate the drop chance of energy orbs so I can verify if Pilfering Swarm affect it.

  5. For some reason, my Prisma Shade's Ghost ability seem to only have default energy color.

    Is that a feature, a bug or just me being stupid (I did try every energy color setting of my warframe and sentinel, with syandana, attachments, regalia, etc.)?
