You can`t complete a hijack mission solo unless you are a healing frame

[(PSN)Vexx757]

To be specific when I play syndicate missions, you can`t complete the mission because the thing you`re protecting is getting destroyed quickly and on top of that, you`re also looking for medallions at the same time which is keeping you away from protecting it.

The only way I can complete the mission is by using healing frames Oberon being the best option, other than that I keep on failing the mission.

This change happened when an update was added to warframe and it was a while back.

Please fix this.

I mean... this isn't totally correct but frames that can sustain their shields/hp are certainly better for these missions. Much like frames with invisibility are better for spy missions and frames with protection/CC are better for defense/mobile defense/excavation etc.

guess you console players never heard of shield frames or using inaros lol

You can also do this with a Nidus or an Inaros and an operator arcane for healing. (or something for shield regens with a frame with shields)

Hijack was always just a gimmicky mission type everyone usually just goes through with an afk Inaros.

The medallions tend to be easy to find because some of the Hijack maps are empty (some aren't)but a loot radar mod might still help if you're soloing them, there's not a lot of time to find them-true.

The Inaros afk method is also the one that works best in sorties because of the nullifier field.

Other than that, cc. is always useful for these missions if they chip away the objective's health too quickly, Inaros also has that.

Imo. the medallions should be removed from this mission type and the base syndicate standing reward should be slightly increased to compensate for it, there are better missions for medallion hunting.

I hesitate to mention this in case it gets "fixed" by DE, but try using a Railjack crewmember with the healing ability.  It's fantastic on hijack.

You can do this with Rhino pretty well if memory serves.  The thing steals your shields and they can't be hurt by enemies. Rhino is also a shield frame as weird as that sounds too.

[Frendh]

Okay, if you are not by the thing that needs protecting then the mission will be difficult. If you stick to the objective and ignore the medallions the mission is easy with many frames. And if you are a stacked player it is easy with all frames.

I do not see any reason for anything to be changed in the current state of syndicate hijack missions.

Either find people to join your squad or do other mission types to farm medallions.

Idk what some of you guys are talking about. The point is it never use to be like that I'm asking to revert it back to the way it was or put all the medallions at the beggining of the level before you do the mission.

And shields doesn`t have to do with keeping it alive.

@Frendh

Don`t tell me to ignore them when this was never had an issue before one of the update, if the medallions are their then that means DE wants us to get them and I don`t want to be with a team.

 

[_COY_]

I believe you can do it with a lot of warframes; just ignore the medallions in this mission type.

My choice would be: Hildryn, Inaros, Protea, Caliban...
I hope one of those will work for you.

well i have exp with this as well why is it basicly beeing afk in SP missions but normal missions the things start to get so mutch dmg should it not that SP needed more to be done

and im not saying SP needs even more Difficulty but it just feels wrong that lower levels are more a challange then high level mission

at the moment i start useing Trinity instead of Inaros in low level missions because it just works better

Well if you have to look for medallions then I guess you will have to let the vehicle reverse back to the beginning, after opening the doors, then you leave it with a trinity specter and your railjack specter.  You mentioned Trinity, not sure what the heal range is on her and NPCs. I know it is affinity range with warframes.

 

I personally find no value in the medallions. Maybe someone who wants to surpass daily cap to rank up faster likes them, but for overall progress speed in the game it is much better to just stick to the cap and farm other things until next reset.

And someone who wants to spam relic packs on new prime release is better off farming steel essence to get relic packs that way.

 

At the end of the day, I do not think it is something that needs to be fixed. It is an escort mission and the objective is to defend it.

well acording to my research to this this is only partly true if you only play missions that reward Steel essence you end up with less relics than useing syndicate medallions but if you going to farm Steel essence targetet you will end up with more eventualy for the Khora Pa i had a difference form
3131essencen 3131/5= 626,2relics while  gaining around 11717250standing 11717250/20000=585,8625relic packs     585*3~1755 relics by Syndicates
1755-626,5=1128,5*5=5642,5/2=2821

so i would have to farm around 5644 essence to get to the same amount that would mean around killing 2821 acolytes without boosters
so round about 14105 mins of acolyte farming or 235 hours or around 10 days

Is that with a booster?

Also, I have no clue what your calculations show.

I can't see how long it takes to get enough medallions for a relic pack in all that.

For boosted steel essence it is less than 20 minutes for a relic pack. About 15 with a smeeta. Half that during double weekend/event.

1)
in case of essence no it is not

2)
i guess it is hard to understand but in the same time from the last PA i basicly played every SP incursion and every Syndicate mission i got and made i statistic for me how mutch potential relics i get in that timeframe

3)
well since you cant grind them endlessly and have to see what missions you play and how mutch medallions are there it is very different it can take you 10min or more
since a mission with 8 medallions is at least 9500 standing or more        1x 5000 2x 1000 5x500 medallions
but for the 9 missions per day it takes about at least 45 mins to do them

4)
an akolyte drops 2 essence so a only one time booster would double it to 4 everything above that is very depending on RNG
it will shorten the time significantly and thats the point where i can say that if you have the will to buy boosters for it thats realy better but then you basicly still have to play the same mission over and over untill you have enought and i find that quite boring

while farming medallions you have a set time frame and dont have to make the most of boosters and reduce the risk of overworking yourself
with at least a good amount of relics for every PA
