kgabor Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 So since i'm not playing the game as much as i used to, i was looking for more efficient methods to farm these cells to cover the Forma crafting and more expensive prime builds. I noticed running fast missions, like fissures on planets with them can yield much in an hour, but i'm looking for something even more efficient. I will definitely look this up on YT, but i'm just curious if anyone here compared the normal passive farming method i mentioned with any of the Steel Path endless nodes, like Helene-Saturn or Gabii-Ceres with a loot frame and found any worth farming in a long run. Normally, pugs leave Helene at around 10-15 waves or so, so i was thinking Steel Path for the full spawn rates would be better for long runs, because cells normally drop from around that point on. That and i could farm this and Steel Essence at the same time. I'm thinking in quantities in the hundreds per run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was about to offer suggestions but then i saw this xD never managed to reach the triple digits in a single run. Personally i like survival missions on Saturn and Ceres in Steel Path (ideally with a resource booster). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taiiat Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 i mean, you can make a pretty accurate estimate yourself. it's double of what you'd get anywhere else. the Booster is independent of everything else in the game, so it's just directly double of what you'd get doing anything in 'normal mode' in the game. (er, quadruple - double from both Boosters so quadruple - you know what i mean here) 23 minutes ago, kgabor said: I'm thinking in quantities in the hundreds per run. that's a great way to get banned for playing the game. because how dare you play.

I know, but isn't it only a trade ban anyways? I rarely even trade. 2 hours ago, 844448 said: I don't think that's really needed when cell array is littered in saturn I was getting about 20 or so from doing fissures for about an hour or so on Saturn. (maybe a little less, because i was also doing other missions in the meantime, plus finishing off my Lich) Just thought there could be a more efficient method, because i rarely play every day for hours at this point and fissures are also rng, besides that i don't have much to do on Saturn. Guess i will try a Dark Sector node in Steel Path then, when i have a booster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)robotwars7 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 god, I can't remember the last time I didn't have thousands of Orokin Cells. not intended as a flex, just a stark reminder of how long I've been playing.. I would say maybe just throw everything you got at it: Steel Path, Dark Sector, Nekros/Pilfering Khora, Smeeta Kavat if you have one, and a drop Chance Booster as well, because why not? combine all or as many of those things as you can together and I'm sure that with a few long runs you'll be swimming in Orokin Cells in no time.

Yep, i used to have a lot too, not thousands, a few hundred, but still as much that i wouldn't have thought i would ever run out of. But since then i played less and less and more than a year ago i stopped playing regularly, so while still building costly primes from time to time and building Forma with the mobile app i eventually ran out OC-s. 13 hours ago, (PS4)robotwars7 said: I would say maybe just throw everything you got at it: Steel Path, Dark Sector, Nekros/Pilfering Khora, Smeeta Kavat if you have one, and a drop Chance Booster as well, because why not? combine all or as many of those things as you can together and I'm sure that with a few long runs you'll be swimming in Orokin Cells in no time. That was the plan, but thanks for the answer. It seems there's no consensus on the current singular best farming node, which is mainly what i was looking for.

(XBOX)Rez090 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Does anybody ever remember that there is a blueprint in the market that allows you to craft orokin cells and only cost 100plat, less if you buy it with a coupon on console? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember seeing that! You can craft 1 Orokin Cell at a time (it's 24 hours right?)... does it really cost 100 plat? I forgot! That's 1/3rd the listed platinum price of Revenant... a fully built Warframe with a pre-installed potato. That is mind boggling! It's almost as mysterious as the Fieldron, Mutagen Mass and Detonite Injector blueprints which enable you to build just 1 of each of these when you can earn 3 from running 3 gimped versions of normal missions (e.g. hack 1 Spy vault with reduced security for Invasion Spy... kill Phorid for Invasion Assassination). Though these blueprints just cost credits instead of platinum. I would say those dojo blueprints still cost a lot of credits relative to how easy it is to earn them from Invasions as well as from lower tier Orb Vallis bounties!

tipsy_princess Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 that's saturn no loot frames, so with loot frames can go over 200 per hour if you find players for that ofc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BahamutKaiser Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Keep extractors on Saturn Ceres and Deimos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Anise_ Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 exactly what I was going to post, build 6 titan extractors since they have a higher chance at rare resources. collect/deploy 3x on login. collect 3x once done and deploy the other 3 while those ones repair. sometimes get 4x cells per run and they just keep building up! ps:something faster maybe 30 minutes survival run on steel path greener set will net you a couple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't responding in bad faith either. Revenant is actually 325 plat (last I checked) and Orokin Cell blueprint is 100 plat (according to you). I even put a question in quotes "It's 24 hours right?" because I wasn't sure of the craft time. Also, there are really similar blueprints in dojo for Mutagen Mass, Fieldron and Detonite Injector that cost credits instead. And indeed, like Orokin Cells, it's already very easy to get Mutagen Masses, Fieldrons, and Detonite Injectors by other means (in this case, Invasions and Orb Vallis bounties). Everything I said was quite sincere and honest. There is no sarcasm to be had in my post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the very least, the Orokin Cell BP is reusable (where the Mutagen Mass, Fieldron, Detonite Injector BPs are not)... so the 100 plat price tag isn't for nothing I guess. Though it still seems expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sometimes use them, they are way too rng, but i can use them when i can't be near my pc. Sometimes i do. I will still rather farm them in endless though, less busy work setting up extractors every day and it's more consistent.
