Hi ive just finished the war within loved it loved all the quests so far. But im so confused right now. Ive picked my school installed the lens on my max lvl warframe hydroid prime and collect the gold circles and collect focus during mission now ive not been goin at it because so for reason my focus seems to reset after every mission im trying to collect 25k to unlock the first buff. But like ive said it seem to reset i had a gd run an got like 17k in one survival but as it wasnt enough to unlock the node i put it into the pool is lvl 9. But i cant seem to do anything else just so u understand whats happening here it is 

 

1. Before mission i have say 2k focus 

2. Do mission and collect 6k 

3. I go see how much i have and all it sayin is 6k 

4. I go do a 2nd mission and say i earn 1k focus 

5. I go check and how much do i have 1k my focus doesnt seem to save.

 

ive tried googling and reading forums nothing. Even the warframe wiki

 

I love the game but it really doesnt do itself any favors with not explaining things.

If anyone can help that would be great i really need the help

Firstly, congrats for unlocking your operator and the focus system, you are now ready for GrindFrame.

Secondly, you would ideally want to farm in ESO, for focus. The frames you would ideally use the lens on are nuke frames such as Saryn or Maim Equinox (Saryn is preferred)

Thirdly, for the issue, could you explain what you mean? From what I understand, it seems like there is a bug since you're trying to say the focus isn't accumulating?

(correct me if I'm wrong)

Sounds like you used your focus on the pool instead of on the skills. Could that have been it?

There are 2 different things you need to consider:

1) Applying focus to unlock and upgrade each skill.

2) Applying focus to raise your pool, so you can enable more skills.

Each skill requires a certain amount of pool points to be enabled, and that increases based on the skill level.

It's probably best for you to keep using the focus to unlock and upgrade the skills you want, and only use the focus on pool points if you need to add more.

Well the first node needs 1 pool and 25k focus but like i said my focus isnt accumulating after every mission its like it resets like:

mission 1. i earn 2k focus i check i have 2k

mission 2. I earn 1k focus i check i have 1k 

Mission 3 i earn 6k focus i check i have 6k 

I only put it in the pool because one time i got like 16/17k from a survival and didnt want to lose it so put it in the pool.

But for the life of me i cant keep focus it alway resets ive tried pressing x to "buy" the first node for 25 but it sayin i need 25k so it not accumulating for some reason really annoyin since i have boosters on they are just goin to waste really im losin so much focus its not funny

A word of advice, plat might be hard to earn initially so I would suggest using the plat on warframe and weapon slots since you can never have enough of those

Ahhh, I see, the pool is to tell you the maximum amount of levels you can have per skill, it uses up your focus, not save it.

You don't lose focus as far as I can tell unless you spend it on a node or put it into the pool

but as I said, it seems like a bug, you might want to report it

Yeah i know that but the point im sayin is

Example i start with 5k focus tryin to get 25k i dont put it in the pool it tells me focus 5k. I go do a mission and say i earn 1k when i goto check it should say 6k correct? But it doesnt it saying 1k 

 

So my problem is i cant save up 25k to unlock the first node because its not saving my past earned focus that i dont put in the pool

Definitely a bug, report it to DE and they might do a hotfix for the consoles as soon as they can.
