ReaverKane 1,433 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Come on DE... Forma and Gild on the same week? The two worse challenges in the whole Nightwave cycle, and yes that's way worse than doing anything "with a friend". How do you look at the game data and see players gilding items every week? Or EVERYONE using 3 Forma every week? Because that's pretty much the metric you should have for NON-ELITE challenges. And yet here we are... Link to post Share on other sites

Zanchak 1,705 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Yar gotta admit, after being amped to play after watching TennoLive stream.. I was instantly disappointed to see yet again a gild and forma objective... literally have gilded and forma'd everything (bar the newest prime access but Im still deciding on that due to things like this) and Im really tired of doing it over and over for absolutely no gain other than some points. If you must include those missions make them worth 1k so people who have already spent a gozillion hours in your game doing exactly that can skip it. Link to post Share on other sites
KnossosTNC 4,045 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Eh, don't mind the Forma one. Still going through my pile of 58 Formas I got from Plague Star. So much to catch up on. As for the gild one, I have a zaw scythe sitting in my inventory waiting for this very moment. Not saying they don't suck, just that they're super easy for me. Again, it's all about planning ahead.

Thats a problem in and of itself.. because I know lots of people who dont use their weapons or try their new stuff.. purely to save them for this. It makes players not.. play.. with their stuff. Thats dumb. Link to post Share on other sites
(PS4)EyeGodZA 121 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Why don't you just skip the ones you can't or don't want to do and do the ones you can or do want to do? There will be more than enough time for everyone to hit level 30... I did so with Act 1 and once I hit 30 I still had a few weeks to spare before all was said and done.

Act 1 ran longer than it was supposed to, and this time around there are less missions and they're worth more rep. So skipping punishes more this time around. Link to post Share on other sites

In many ways, the game already encourages you to do that. I personally already do. Link to post Share on other sites

Aldain 11,662 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 I don't know how they STILL haven't gotten the memo that resource spending is not a good idea for a challenge. Its not even a challenge, its literally just a resource tax, especially the Gild one because of how stiff the modular system works in Warframe. Link to post Share on other sites

--DSP--Jetstream 723 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Easy, just skip them, I believe I skip every challenge that I dont wanna do and still get to max rank like before. And with the catchup mechanic its becoming more safe to reach max rank. Link to post Share on other sites

They've poured plats into potatoes and Formas and spend all day at Hydron and Adaro, levelling everything as fast as possible. Me? I haven't spent a single plat on either of those, and like to "slow level" things, like how I'm currently bring my Synapse on my Marduk runs and my Brakk on my Tridolon. Far slower, yes, but I don't care. I'm enjoying myself. Different strokes for different folks, each with their pros and cons. Link to post Share on other sites
Zaitseff 4 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Just build a Zaw, it takes literally 1 hour to farm and gild them (not including the building downtime). They should decrease the forma building time if they want to keep that Challenge Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe they've taken their time, over many many years and are complete.. and don't fit in with that little spew right there.

It's not being entitled to wish they'd think of everyone instead of just new players. It's an all too common complaint now. (And no, I dont want an "endgame" I just want some clear thought behind things) It's also not a challenge to stick forma on something over and over again, nor gild something. They aren't challenges, even at all. Link to post Share on other sites

They aren't thinking of "everyone" anymore and havent for a long time. I am aware. Many spend all day at Hydron and Adaro levelling everything fast and now don't have anything else to devour. I don't have anything against them, and I can appreciate the upsides to that way of playing, but there is also a price they pay for rushing through the game so fast. As I said, I don't like this act either, but it is a reminder that there are pros and cons to everything. Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't judge. As I said, I can appreciate some of the advantages of playing that way, and I don't begrudge them one bit. I just play a different way, and they both have their pros and cons. I'm sure there are a few veteran players out there who did slowly complete everything, but the game has grown a lot over the years, and considering the frequency of "LF Hydron" on recruitment chat, I'd say there's a lot more of the fast levellers than the veterans. I feel for both of them, I really do. But again, everything has their pros and cons. It's not possible to cater to every player's individual circumstances. Link to post Share on other sites

It's not hard; you can build a zaw in an hour, run Pago at Kuva Fortress with a Ivara and an Affinity booster just once, then return to Cetus. However, it is a little bit of a waste of time if you've already levelled up everything. Link to post Share on other sites
