[Psa: Tactical Alert Escalation]

Don't feed the DE Troll ;)

[How Are We Expected To Do This?]

Obvious DE trolling is obvious...

[Spy 2.0 - The Drop Table]

Plus i don't know if, when you trigger the optional exterminate mission (retrieving all the three vaults under alarm) you get additional items; two times i did that and two times it rewarded with rare mods (including frigid blast) and a load of other things.

 

I will do more testing but, if this is true, that would be very nice, since it's a mission goal that requires skill and teamwork.

[Ways To Address Power Creep And New Player Power Skipping]

Imho the prime parts shower is going to end soon and I think it will be replaced by rewards via quest chains unlockable by mastery rank (or plat).

There will be the usual complaints but in the end the system will be fine.

[New Players Get Good Stuff Way To Early.]

Also it´s kinda strange that you can buy the prime stuff with less plat in the trade cahnnel than the normal versions of the frames in the shop.

300 plat (ok -40 for slot and potato) for frost? Let´s get Frost Prime first for less.

Exactly!

Using the market prices as basis, a prime Warframe should cost non less than 500 Plat, but this doesn't happens because there's no real scarcity of resources since prime parts drop like rain once you get in a clan or a good build.

I personally think things are going to change soon, probably in form of quest chains for the juicer equipments: just watch at the "hidden messages" quest you can get only One Mirage, no matter how much you play.

I expect that newer equipments will follow a similar path.

[New Players Get Good Stuff Way To Early.]

Let's talk about the elephant in the room: the game is free to play and its monetization isn't even that bad, if you wait for a lotus discount you can get 2k plat with less money than a night at the pub.

 

And this is fine!

 

The problem IMHO is that almost all the primes sells for 50 plat (5 or 10 for single pieces) and if you keep that cost ratio it means that 50 little cents can give you the best equipment the game can offer that otherwise would be obtainable with many hours of play. Ducats are a way to remove much of the excess primes and to let the prices increase; plus newer patches advertise more synergy between the various game mechanics; it's a sign that DE acknowledges this and we'll see where all this will be going.

[Hysteria + Channelled Long Weapon]

(Possible BUG)

 

I'm having a lot of fun using Valkyr with a channelled Amphis; the problem is that, when Hysteria is on, the damage seems way lower than the standard.

 

I made some test (not extensive) but i still don't undestrand if it's something about the lesser range of hysteria, some problem with channeling or simply an old-fashioned bug.

 

Someone got insights?
