    Yeah, happened to me too. Seemingly at random, since it didn't happen on every attempt. But enough that it caused me to take a whole other day to finish.

    And it took me the 3rd day to actually complete it. Looks like the 1st enemy that appears was now at the base of the tower rather than at the end of lane where he can spot you.

    Seems like DE needs to sort out the spawn behavior for stealth based mastery tests.

  2. This is the 2nd time I've failed the test due to this exact reason.

    Each time I've spawned on the 1st attempt at the top of the tower, the first enemy below immediately detects me before the Lotus even finishes her explanation of the test and before I'm allowed to start moving.

    The next two attempts the enemy detects me even faster, so fast that the screen doesn't even finish fading back in during the respawn so I end up seeing two white flashes on my screen followed by Lotus telling me I've failed the test.

  3. I honestly never even knew they made a sound to let you know they're coming.

    So much is already going on with death screams, abilities, melee, gun shots, BGM, etc.

     

    I mean, sometimes I can't even hear the black clouds during Siphon missions and they;re pretty loud to begin with.

  4. Lately, Lith and Meso Void Fissures for Survival and Defense and occasionally Exterminate are not dropping enough Reactant within the allotted time due to the lower enemy count. Most of the Survivals have seen the whole team running around the map for upwards of 2 min before a group of enemies spawn. In Defense, Reactant will not start dropping until Wave 2 and that's already pushing it when the lower level Defense missions have sparce enemies spawning per wave.

    I've been finishing Lith/Meso Survivals and Defense with an average of 8 Reactant more often than I have all 10.

    While it's appreciated that we don't lose the relic if we didn't collect all 10 Reactant, it's still just wastes time and kills the need to stay for another 5 min/waves.

  5. Is the Natah Quest still saying active for anyone else?

    It shows I have completed the quest in its entirety.

     

    I have had all regions of Sedna unlocked for years and nothing related to War Within appears. I completed Second Dream the day it came out as well so I don't know what else to do. I even uninstalled the original client I've had for years and reinstalled through Steam and still nothing.

  6. Well I have a 30 day trial for Photoshop going, may as well put it to good use. Can we make our own cards? I'd love to make a custom set that's more Warframe-ish in illustrator instead of using regular playing cards.

    It's a bit overkill considering the only game I play that demands alot is The Division, everything else I play are F2P like Warframe or old PC games like Deus Ex: Human Revolution and a couple Total War games.

    Completely disagree.  OP's build does  1409.8 base damage.  It crits half the time for x4.4 multiplier, which means its average damage with crits included is 3806.46, times a fire rate of 6.67 is a burst DPS value of 25389.

    Crit head shots do an additional x4 damage compared to the torso, so that's an average of 15K damage per shot if you aim for head and 100K burst DPS.  And then there's status. OP has opted for armor stripping, but any "serious" team is just going to use corrosive projection instead, so you use viral, and with 55% chance to trigger status you can pretty much just assume any target you shoot at will have viral i.e. all damage values are effectively doubled, so call it 200K DPS.  And the weapon scores some slash procs too, so it's even higher than that because of the bleed DOT sprinkled on top.

    Just because a weapon isn't Tonkor doesn't mean it's not effective.

     Never said anything about it being a "Tonkor". Why does everything always have to come back to the Tonkor?

  9. I really need to get a cracked version of both Illustrator and Photoshop for school. Can't afford those 2 and I only need those 2 but later on I'll also need to get InDesign.

     

    But if you can't afford Photoshop, you can also give GIMP like someone else suggested a try. I used to use it alot before getting my hands on Photoshop Elements 5. It'll get you through some of the basic/advanced stuff, but the more complex features are in the latest version of Photoshop.

     

    Adobe does offer free 30-day trials for all their programs, and when I mean free, I mean actually free, no credit card needed to sign up for it or anything, just need an email. You could sign up for it and download the Adobe CC program which holds all the Adobe programs in one app. I suggest trying out the trials for both Illustrator and Photoshop. Illustrator is all vector art, so your best friend is going to be the Pen Tool.

  10. I have to ask though.

     

    I've been playing Warframe ever since U.5 on this laptop:

    i3-2350 @ 2.3 GHz

    4GB Ram

    Intel Integrated video card.

     

    I do have a powerful PC though:

    i7-6700 @ 3.4 GHz ( it has turbo boost so it goes up to 3.7 )

    EVGA GTX Classified 980

    16GB RAM.

     

    Not to say I don't play Warframe on that PC, but graphical improvements doesn't seem like it'll be friendly to my laptop and I usually play Warframe on my downtime at school on the laptop.

     

     

  11. I've been wanting to try making skins and weapons in illustrator for fun but I'm having trouble trying to find anything with good lighting that would allow me to use the Pen tool properly.

     

    Anyone have high resolution pictures of frames or weapons that have good lighting? Everything I find is always behind a black background with half of the object too dark to make a good live trace in illustrator.

  12. It's the mods, not the frames that are strong.

     

    Though some frames perform better than others.

     

    But you also need to think about what's in your mod pool compared to others. You say you have a strong frame, but what mods are you using?

     

    My Excalibur and Nyx under perform when I look at other Excalibros and Nyx's.

     

    I've been here since Update 5 if I remember right. Frames were only as strong as whatever we had chosen when the Skill Tree was still a thing. Everything was set in stone and couldn't be removed or replaced so it always made you think about what you wanted to have for what small number of frames we had back then. Same went for weapons.

     

    While I am a CB player up to this point. I don't have every single mod currently available like other players have, so I will not agree with anyone and everyone who thinks Warframe is so easy. I don't have all the Forma I can ever want ( I do, they all need to be crafted ). Even so, I don't have the kind of time needed to put down 5-6 Forma on a frame and then do the same for a weapon. I get burnt out using the same frame or weapon for extended periods of time.

     

    I struggle way too often in T4 survival after 15 minutes even with the help of Nyx, and Nyx has very strong Staying Power but I don't have the kinda mods others might be using for her and not all of the usual ones like Retribution or Vitality are maxed either. I still have another 3 levels for Vitality before it's maxed and 2 more for Retribution, but I don't have the Fusion Cores or the credits or the time for that matter to constantly grind for all that.

     

    I can barely do Sorties because of some the requirments, I somehow managed to do it with some major problems as Excalibur and I accidently brought the wrong weapon that wasn't built properly for Corpus as it was a Corpus Sortie. So I don't even bother with them since I don't have the mods or weapons to help me do them with much problems, even if I do have the mods, most of them aren't maxed.

     

    So don't go saying Warframe is easy or Warframes are overpowered. Cause it's and they're not. But then again, I don't need to explain why it's not easy for me. But that's just my 2 cents.

  13. but you have noted being on a tight budget, so again:

     

    the aforementioned note towards CPU,Motherboard,RAM - spending significantly more than needed when on a tight budget, when could spend a good chunk less and get basically the same performance result in anything but synthetic benchmarks.

    I'm just happy I have a much stronger computer than my old desktop and laptop regardless of what you think of it. Don't see why you think of having to make a big deal out of it. You either like my setup or you don't, no need to go into detail of X and Y. I'm sorry it's not the same as whatever set up your using I guess?

  14. things to note:

     

    2x GTX970's is mostly a waste of your time. on paper it's better than other options in the same price range, but in practice it results in that much less often.

     

    more importantly though, putting SSD's into RAID0 is a complete waste of time. just a waste of money.

    i also don't see how you can stand using a 120gig SSD unless it's dedicated just to Windows and absolutely nothing else, and you install very little to it.

     

     

    lastly if you were working on a tight budget, LGA1151 was a waste of money. a few percent higher performance in real world tops, but costs much more than you could spend on a socket one or two generations before that would perform the same.

     

     

     

    performance of what's there however, will be good nonetheless.

    (insert grumble about not having enough SSD space to put fat software (like fat games) on to make them load 20x faster. but am a bit of a nuts person, as i have an SSD for boot, and when the new one comes in, one SSD dedicated to fat Steam games, one dedicated to fat other games, in addition to a music drive, and a data drive for applications and Steam)

    While I did want a gaming PC, it's not being dedicated to gaming directly.

     

    For the most part, it's so that I can use 3DS Max and illustrator to their fullest since the laptop I have doesn't have the space nor the GPU performance to withstand the work I do in illustrator. But like I said, I had a small amount of money leftover after having to get a new transmission for my car. I had to save money where I could you know, so ya I chose to get a 970 and still plan on getting another one over a 980. I don't need the best of the best.

  15. Yes, Nyx is good, but situational (as I stated, we were a duo lineup, so popping nullifier bubbles is a problem on its own, especially if they bunch up).

    Nullifiers don't work against indirect abilities like Mind Control or Chaos.

     

    You can still use Mind Control on one of them, but it wouldn't matter because they're always in groups during sorties.

  16. Told my step dad who's a huge computer geek that I was ready to get a new computer after my old crashed a few years ago. He immediately jumped onto newegg and helped me with my budget I set for myself. Ended up saving some $400 through newegg.

     

    Getting all my stuff delivered tomorrow probably since it just arrived here in Colorado, though we're currently being pounded by an onslaught of snow.

     

    i7-6700 8M Skylake Quad Core @ 3.4 GHz

    Samsung 850 EVO 2.5" 120GB SATA 3-D Vertical SSD

    G-Skill Ripjaws V Series 16GB 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2800

    EVGA GeForce GTX 970

    WD Blue 1TB Hard Drive

    CORSAIR Hydro-Series H90

     

    My step dad is itching to start building this thing, he loves building his own PCs.

     

    Of course I have all the other little things needed to complete this PC. Once taxes are in, I'll be getting another 970 and most likely do a Raid Zero config.

     

    all being put into an AZZA Solano 1000 Black Japanese SECC Tower with a blue/green LED layout.

     

    Complete upgrade from the little i3-2350 @ 2.30GHz, 4GB RAM + Integrated graphics card laptop I've been using. Don't even remember what my old desktop had, but I believe it only had an i3.

     

    There was also a special deal going on with newegg and apparently I'm getting a free copy of Rise of The Tomb Raider which I didn't know had a PC port.

     

    Finally I'll be able to play Warframe in all it's graphical glory @.@.

    Among other things.

     

    What do you guys think of this PC? Not the strongest one, but I had a budget to work with and this from leftover nosh after having to buy a new transmission for my car ( no longer has a 2nd gear ).
