  1. Zephyr with Silence subsumed over her 1st ability is the easiest frame for that. Just go for high range and as much duration as you can. Thanks to Silence the Thrax enemies can't start their beam attack and Eximus units can't cast their abilities which means they need to shoot, melee, or nade the cryopod or excavator. Shooting and nading it won't happen since Turbulence just keeps all that away. Finally there are melee enemies, they get picked up by her Tornados. The only thing that can get to you are melee units with overguard but even they take the increased crit dmg if they are close to a Tornado you are shooting. The downside is that Zephyr's kit doesn't really do much to help you with enemies that are further away, all you got is the crit chance passive and your weapons.
  2. I think it is very likely that Dante Unbound will be released on the 22nd or 25th of March, either during the live devstream from PAX or on the 11th anniversary of the official release of Warframe. Here's Megan from a few days ago talking about one last hotfix for iOS before Dante Unbound will be "heading down the development pipeline" by which she means the console CERT processes I'd assume: The hotfix was actually a smaller CERT update on iOS: Very unlikely to happen this week and then it makes sense for DE to wait for the patch to coincide with one of those events.
  3. I love how many people call abusing other people's ignorance a free market when the core principle of a free market is the determination of price by supply and demand. Trade chat is not a free market, it is an unregulated bazaar where most people try to fleece the tourists.
  4. This part of the forum is for English speakers but there is a subforum for Chinese speakers: https://forums.warframe.com/forum/1561-简体中文/ You will probably find more people there that will understand you and can help you! Best of luck!
  5. You don't need to parry at all, you can shoot or melee the rider until the small health bar is depleted and then perform a melee heavy attack on the rider, when it lands you get the prompt to strike as well.
  6. Loki has invisibility, invulnerability, shield gating, and AoE disarm. Safe Guard Switch is just another tool in his arsenal, surviving is not Loki's issue at any level of play. The issue is that his whole kit doesn't do anything else.
  7. Safeguard Switch being good is obviously wrong. It is very good. It's invulnerability can't be dispelled, Nullifiers and Acolytes won't all of a sudden make you mortal. And it's duration can be refreshed so you are not just functionally but actually immortal for as long as you have enemies to cast Switch Teleport on. Don't get me wrong, that doesn't all of sudden alleviate all of his issues but Safeguard Switch is seriously underrated. The issue with Loki is that as long as you are in a situation where enemies do not pose a threat anyway his kit doesn't do much.
  8. Riven prices in general have become much more homogenic and generally lower compared to their highs for meta rivens a couple of years ago when Eidolon hunting was much more difficult. The prices for Lanka, Vectis, and Rubico rivens were truly ridiculous at some point. But today these trades for thousands of plat for a single riven have become much more rare, you can get very good rolls for meta weapons for under 1k plat in most cases. The really good triple A grade meta rivens may be much more expensive but are also not a quick and easy sale. So you made offers to people and some gave you a piece of their mind about the quality of what you are offering and others just told you in shortform that they are not interested. Have you considered that you might come across as a scammer to people if you offer rivens of little value for better stuff or want to force trades on people looking to sell? Your entire wall of text comes across as if you are frustrated because the people in trade chat and on the market sites don't exactly agree with your valuation of goods. And in general nobody is forced to buy rivens, especially not the expensive ones. With a couple of exceptions for really sought after weapons you can get unrolled rivens for most weapons for the plat equivalent of a forma bundle. And that is still not necessary since there is absolutely no content in this game that requires a riven. Rivens are toys, you get them because they are fun and for the big funny numbers, not for practical reasons.
  9. Say you got yourself a shiny new Gauss Prime relic from Apollo rewards, and you were itching to open it in a mission. You pull up a Exterminate Fissure mission on Public matchmaking, just to increase the chances of a good reward. However, inevitably, and as many of you witnessed I'm sure whether you've been playing for 5 days or 2 weeks, that IDIOTS with no consideration for the others in the squad, will bring some ridiculous "fun build" to Exterminate mission and spent the better part of 2-3 minutes on a single enemy, and the whole team is waiting at extract. To some this is probably fine, and I'll sound like a complainer, but at MR4 Prime and playing since 2018, I've seen every decent "fun build" from Inaros Stug to stuff like Loki max strength in the current age. In things like Survival missions where the time to finish can't go up due to enemies being spread out everywhere, using a fun, powerless sightseeing setup is ABSOLUTELY VALID AND UNDERSTANDABLE. But in a simple Axi Exterminate mission??? C'mon let me just spam my Thermal Sunder and leave happy. I know I cannot be the only player who feels this way, but I'm probably one of few who would actually make a whole forum post about it. I hope this reaches players and that it generates a healthy discussion on why Fun Builds should be UNACCEPTABLE in a simple mission like an Exterminate fissure. Have respect for your fellow Tenno and LET THEM PLAY THE GAME TOO, or you'll risk stepping on someone's toes, even if you don't know it, or didn't intend it that way.
  10. I don't have any accounts to merge at this point, too. That wasn't the issue in my case, it was a problem on the side of the guy that had merged accounts.
  11. I ran in to a similar issue with another player, he was able to fix it by confirming 2FA again after merging.
  12. I have the same issue, Brief Respite doesn't work in Circuit while Augur mods worked just fine.
  13. Because of the rewards. It is the the source of several staple mods and with an effective team on a good tileset it is the best Kuva farm as well.
  14. We are done for today. We need leaderboards!
  15. So both of your posts boil down to say that it all depends on how you use it. That is at least partially true but also completely irrelevant to a forum thread discussing the capabilities of different warframes in a support role. See Vendominus posts for an example how to properly weigh pros and cons of different frames in a comparison without basing it all on how well a player uses the frame. And if you struggle to survive with Styanax you are doing it wrong, plain and simple. Intrepid Stand offers you Overguard while you are using his 4th ability that refreshes several times per second while you build up shields and overshields thanks to his third ability, offering you near infinite invincibility frames from gating.
  16. If your progression freezes in Circuit you can fix it, at least on PC: Host needs to quit using Alt+F4, forcing host migration. The now former host gets the option to reconnect to squad once back in the game. Repeat until it unborks itself but I haven't seen an instance where it wasn't fixed after two host migrations. Sometimes it even works when a client disconnects. Not an ideal solution but a workaround. You lose collected resources but at least you get to keep most of your progression (might lose points for one round).
  17. Obviously the build and playstyle always need to be factored in while you play but that isn't a valid argument to judge a frame by. "I saw a several players play Styanax badly" isn't about the capabilities of the frame but the players struggling with the way they play.
  18. Yeah, load times are still horrendous for some users needing several attempts to load in or we end up having to go somewhere else like Maroo's which is not ideal for newer tenno due to the mandatory 10% extra credits they get charged there.
  19. Maybe you should consider the possibility that your observations are not accurate and could be bias-driven before you insult others and insist that the wiki is wrong and has always been wrong. Since you have been confronted with a bunch of observations from others that are in line with the wiki and not your observations you could start by actually collecting data and making sure your observations are indeed correct.
  20. If you don't center your build around spamming his 4 you leave a lot of potential on the table, that is just the most effective way to play Styanax. But even if you ignore Intrepid Stand and his 4th ability he has decent survivability thanks to above average armor and the ability to regenerate shields with his 3rd ability and health with his 2nd ability. That takes a lot more effort compared to spamming his 4 with Intrepid Stand equipped obviously. The augment makes his 4 much more usable and opens up build variety since you aren't forced to run low duration anymore to avoid getting killed why his 4 is active and you can't cast abilities. And while I agree with you that the decrees in the Circuit certainly shake things up and make it a lot easier to reach and beat level cap enemies compared to any other game mode this doesn't affect Styanax that much since he already can use the double damage gating from both overguard and shields.
  21. Use his new augment (Intrepid Stand) and as long as you keep hitting enemies with his 4 you are unkillable since you gain Overguard from every hit. And while his 3 is active you additonally gain shields and overshields while killing enemies, giving you another layer of protection.
  22. Close Contagion (spreading status effects) + Nourishing Terror (gain health from applying status effects) with some added damage plus status effect decrees turns every weapon in to an AoE weapon that heals you.
  23. You get the adapter back and can use it again. It might even retain its levels (no need to redo the challenges), at least it did that for me when I moved my adapter from the Telos Boltor to the Prime.
