Straight out of the Wiki:
The Status Effect of
Void damage is Bullet Attractor, which creates a small 5 meter field around the target which absorbs and redirects projectiles over 3 seconds.

Mirage honestly surprised me, before I unlocked her she seemed like some frame with mediocre buffs and gimmicks. Without a single forma I strolled through 8 waves of ESO, 1shoting everything, at about wave 7-8 I was ready to start jumping about, just like with any squishy frame, but no, I don't think I got hit enough times for my shields to drop even, thanks to the illusions.
Overall a surprisingly pleasant frame, focused on weapon damage and evading enemy damage through abilities, with CC as a nice, but ultimately unneeded bonus.

Why would eveyone do the same they see others do?
Will you jump from a bridge if everyone starts to?
And you just said the opposite of what you said before. Not everyone uses prime flow, same applies to umbral fiber. Using umbral fiber on a frame with 15 armor.
Because they do, your second question exists because of that fact.
Umbral fiber was an example of how inefficient builds will exist, because people saw "set bonus" and remembered their diablo 2 days or saw someone else using it on a different frame stating "best mods".
Point is, if the polarity goes out of Umbra, 90% of frames will be stuck with all 3 and the other 10 with at least 2 and that's nothing like primed mods. You also get less diversity, which is bad for the game.
Moreover, your request is not based on your desire for efficiency, it's because you want more power. It would be the same as me saying I want Unairu wisp to be made unbound, so I can stack it with Void Strike and be more efficient.
In conclusion, you don't need more power creep and that's what the polarity will produce. Currently its more of a trade, less general power, for more emphasized strengths and that's fine as it is, after all, what fun will it be if there's only one viable build.

You can say the same about prime mods.
If there is a better mod why not use it?
Also i doubt people would use umbral fiber on warframes with low armor. 2 mods already give you more than their normal counter part and iatead of those extra 15~20% she woyld probably use blind rage or something. Feels like you build you stuff to have a collection not most efficiency.
Example is the mod that enchances crit, but i doubt everyone use full set of those mods.
So it comes down to how people build. And i build for effectivnes and viability.
No you can't say the same about prime mods, neither continuity nor flow are used on every single frame and vigor is no better.
Because if they let you use it, you'll get to the situation you have with weapons, a crit and a status build with maybe 1, max 2 mod difference. MAIN REASON. BAD.
People will, because they'll see that others do it and follow suit, often without much thought into it. As they do in every other game.
Your almighty efficiency boils down to sticking umbral mods in everything? Efficiency varies in builds, some benefit from umbral mods, while others would see a bigger loss than gain. I suppose you have Sacrificial pressure on every melee because its an umbra mod?
You're comparing a flat 30% stat increase to a condition gated marginal bonus?
You seem to be the only person who does that in your opinion? What else is there to build for?
-
No clue what that gambit mode is, but I've always imagined that something like Enfo's team survival would work as a charm in WF.
-
Guys, Guys, ofc. the map is incomplete, but it's meant to be efficient.
With loot detector and Zephyr/Volt/Nova/Titania/Whatever this route is cleared in 3-4 minutes for 3-5 wisps and you're at the gates restarting.
As opposed to running around 10 minutes scouring the small ponds.
They are not hard to farm this way, 20+ in a night should be easy.

ALSO means people want it. And i do believe giving what a lot of people ask for is not that CRAZY!
I need any info.
We get tona of teasers and info on new content like updated UI, new warframe, Fortuna info, but not a single word on umbral polarities.
You mentioned yet. Where did you find that info.
Everybody want everything, people wanting the polarity doesn't validate your point.
The most obvious reason not to get the polarity is simple. If they do it, they may as well remove 3 mod slots and just add the bonuses of the umbra mods, since there wouldn't be a single frame that wouldn't be equipped with them and this is bad for the game in general.
Even worse, you'll have frames like Trinity running Umbral Fiber, just because of the set bonus...

Thing is, there's nothing in the game to tell you that you probably shouldn't be Eidolon hunting as a newbie.
I remember my first night on the plains with my sub-rank 30 Excalibur and standard Braton, Lato & Bo loadout. This was before I realised you had the option to go solo. Got roped into a hunt and found myself shooting at this big, glowing monster, not having a clue what I was supposed to be doing. Took a few deaths before it sank in that I probably needed to get better gear.
8-9 months later, with gear I can comfortably do Pluto missions with, I know I'm still not ready to go Eidolon hunting (don't have any amps, for starters).
That's why gating it past TWW would be a solution for both sides.
That said, I've made my piece with the situation, but just wanted to point out to the OP that there are two sides to a coin. Believe me, I'd like nothing more than to clear all 3 with the randoms (Which is also often the case), but when the rest are so obviously under equipped and I don't have the ability to carry mostly alone, what options are there but to quit?
-
Why not both? 🤔 They are two different play styles, unless you've come from CS and you view them as different skins.
Ash has stealth into meme strike written all over, you'll be like an immortal blender as long as you don't leave stealth and will probably 1shot almost anything.
Excalibur can reach immortality as long as you don't afk, he won't 1shot enemies, but properly built, his exalted blade is like an aoe machine gun mowing enemies at range.
The holy trinity of immortal Excal is Quick Thinking, Hunter Adrenaline and Life Strike. Quick thinking uses your energy as a "mana shield" before death, Hunter Adrenaline converts damage to hp into energy and Life Strike is probably the most OP life steal I've ever seen in a game, from 0 to 100% in one hit, you don't even need to max it and even at max rank it will be dirt cheap - 15 energy or so, so you can just hold it down if you're being focused.
Overall I'd go with Excal, because there's rarely a mistake severe enough that could get you killed, but I often go with Ash as well.

Dont worry, you don't need focus for teralyst at least. For other two void strike from madurai or unairu wisp from unairu should be enough for solo. A formaed Lanka or Vectis (prime) or even Opticor is enough for teralyst, and Rhino or Chroma, unless you do gantu and hydro too in which case probably Trinity blessing build to keep the lures alive. Haven't soloed gantu and hydro yet but I probably could.
Well... I think i have a shot at soloing Terry, but he's not that interesting anyway, as for the rest I'm having doubts. I do have Madurai leveled up with maxed void strike, along with the unbound +150% hp and +4 hp regen from vazarin and max magus husk and vigor. My Lanka doesn't have a riven, but is with 5 forma and I have Chroma, Trinity and Rhino built for hunts, but not min-maxed.

Is the only reason you don't solo that you can't or that it takes 3-5 mins more per cap than with a proper team? Because I find soloing more rewarding, heartily recommend it.
Honestly, I never tried solo... don't think I'm ready yet, since my focus schools aren't that developed yet.

Where are the South American Frames? Asia isn't only China, Cowframe now! Where's my Antarctica themed warframe, I need a penguin! Where's the eastern European frame, throwing shots of vodka, with a "cyka blyat" ultimate changing all objectives to a "B" marker?
We need to check all the progressive triggers!!!!
That said, the themes used are those who are received generally favorably in aesthetics and theme. They are made by designers, who like all other human beings, have preferences and more knowledge on some things than others. Sure you can force them into making something, with no knowledge of its cultural significance or any emotion towards its design, but will it be in the same quality if you just let them be inspired by what they are familiar with and enjoy?
TLDR: More well known themes are used.
P.S. However, a Mace Windu themed warframe would be awesome, I can already see the passive's name:
-
Quitters will be reduced, when they properly gate Eidolons, which is probably never.
Don't get me wrong, I couldn't care less for frames that aren't meta, but I've given enough MR8 Umbras a chance, to know that the next won't be any different.
Or how about those MR3s, thinking "ok he may be lost", discovering a new part of the game, nope he's in the next hunt as well...
I can safely say I'm a quitter. I've quit about 100 times for reasons like this.
I've literally seen MR1s with MK weapons in there.

SOOO many bad situations with Rhinos in Index, I don't know where to start.
1. I've experienced that some of those Rhinos seem to consider everything not a Rhino to be "unworthy" in the Index.
Sure, I'm supposed to let you take all the points, because I play a lowly Inaros...
2. The Rhino doesn't even do any damage worth mentioning, but he swoops down for that point as if he's saving the day with his almighty frame.
3. I've died countless times at 14 points being focus fired and some rhino just running around picking up the points from my kills without actually helping,
not letting me get that 15th point.4. More than one Rhino on the team, both of them running around ready to recite "In brightest day", game taking forever, I end up getting 90+ points
I'm sure I can think of more, but its getting on my nerves just thinking about it.

I wonder why no one's mentioned yet the single most obvious reason you should pick Inaros.
You need Saryn systems to build Chroma. That is if you plan on getting him the normal way and that requires you to clear Sedna.
However, Inaros has no competition as a tank, he has 4 sources of healing - Passive, 1st, 2nd and 4th and lots of HP, also a thing people ignore is his ability for up to 40 sec of invulnerability, albeit he has to hold position.
Also, in my humble opinion Inaros doesn't require Strength or Efficiency and benefits somewhat from Duration and Range, however even those are not that needed.
So the build I use for 7k+ HP and 6-700 Armor is :Steel Charge, Coaction Drift, Hunter Adrenaline, Negation Swarm, Gladiator Resolve, Gladiator Aegis, Intensify, Vitality, Fiber. I have a mod missing because the last 3 are umbral and I have no more capacity, but I didn't find anything worth having anyway, if you use normal mods you can add some QOL mod. This build along with an Orthos Prime is immortal and 1shots sortie 3 enemies, does miracles in the Index and for a bit of an overkill I added Medi-Ray to my companion.
As for Valkyr, your build is almost the same as mine, umbral mods aside, just swap Gladiator Aegis for Intensify. Level the mods and get a Kavat with Pack Leader and Hunter Recovery. The thing about Valkyr is, that if you don't have enough sustain, E.G. Arcane Grace/Elevate/Nourish, Hirudo, Kavat/Kubrow, then Life strike is advised, since there's a good chance you may get downed while trying to activate Hysteria, plus this is mostly a Warcry build so it would be good if you don't have to spend 60% of the time in Hysteria, healing yourself.
Also, switch the Galatine for something with higher critical, replace the 60/60 mods with 90% ones, remove condition overload for Organ Shatter or True Steel, since you seem to be looking for a combo based build.

Don't worry about credits, just play the game.
Once you unlock Neptune credits become the easiest resource to obtain.

-Saryn's spores spread on their on
-Equinox's maim applies the stacked the damage on top of the slash proc
-10 second window on Pyrana prime passive
-Lanka doesn't charge
-
-Farmed 4 prime parts from relics, all dropped in 4 consecutive runs from intact relics
-Revenant in 4 bounties
-Equinox in 10 runs
-Prepared to farm for rage and was perfectly ready to kill a few hours in the void, but tripped over a container in ODS and it was just laying there
-All 4 mods in 4 tries on all acolytes, but Angst
-Biggest one ever was yesterday, 4k polymer in a 10 minute run without boosters, Nekros or Hydroid

I'm going to name it Windows, because it will probably die a lot
Also, Cluck or AT-ST.

This is on purpose. During Tennocon when they were showing the big spider in Venus, Steve said "No, we aren't going to tell you how to beat that, you will have to figure it our by yourselves".
Personally, I like that they do that, it's a challenge by itself, and you can bet that when that gets released the game will be extremely active with veterans and others alike trying to figure out how to beat that beast.
I like that part too, but discovering how to beat an enemy and letting that MR3 participate are two different things.
Eidolons should be unlocked after TWW at least anyway.
-
I know that it will drop eventually and I have plenty of other things to do if the item doesn't drop, plus I think that the game genuinely gives you a pass after a while.
My lates experience was with Mirage BP, Limbo neuroptics, Banshee chasis and Valkyr systems with no luck, farmed and saved void traces for those relics exclusively.
Then, one day, I got fed up, decided to run all of the relics intact, in four consecutive runs I got all four parts.

I though the powers of a certain frame were present IRL?
Just check WoW or LoL's forums.
*cough* Saryn *cough*
Though the IRL possibilities...
With Octavia I can open a highly successful club in the US with the added bonus of being immune to mass shootings, thanks to mallet.
-
I personally go with strike and fury. Excal is already immortal with Quick Thinking, Hunter Adrenaline and Life strike.

I'm disgusted by this cheap attempt to sell garbage for gold.
Moreover, the go-to sniper in Fortuna will be the same as in PoE - Opticor.

Just did it 2 days ago, with Inaros, Orthos and Arca Plasmor, honestly it was less challenging than the MR16 challenge. That one I failed once, because enemies stopped spawning.
Main point: focus on orbs, the enemies aren't going anywhere. Also, always practice first, better to waste 2 minutes going to a relay, than having to wait 24 hours.
