Finding Out How To Spawn The Harvester

[Zulaica]

So we've nailed down a few things about him but there is still much to know, if you have any sort of substantial evidence please post so.

 

Primes increase chances of finding Harvester

Being involved in the Gradivus Dillema increases the chances of spawning it (This should be self explanatory players that registered after the event are having as much luck as those who supported the Grineer or Corpus full and through during it)

Specific weapons increase chances of spawning Harvester

Planets have higher chances of spawning Harvester (As long as its a Corpus mission he can spawn)

Being in a mission from the start of it increases the chances of spawning Harvester

Low level weapons/frames increase chances of spawning Harvester (Likely has nothing to do with loadouts)

Corpus defense has highest chances of spawning Harvester (Apparently not true, he spawns on any Corpus mission after 240 seconds after spawning it seems)

Having both a Stalker mark and Harvester mark spawns the Harvester ???

Killing Alad V gives death mark to spawn Harvester ???

Other Corpus bosses besides Alad V give a death mark to spawn the Harvester ???

Nef.Anyo is a Harvester mark trigger ???

Highest chances of finding Harvester are on invasions against Corpus ✓(Confirmed on Livestream 20 that it is triggered by supporting Grineer)

You get a email in your inbox when you have a mark ✓

If you have anything you would like to add or confirm/deconfirm please feel free to post it.

TL:DR Support grineer until you get a email but be aware that the probabilities are butchered for the Harvester to appear according to the people on the Livestream

Grats Bro, fricking awesome i am finaly happy, and i can finaly say it is over with detron grind for us.

 

Now lets  relax we can play survival level detron etc, see you in game and no other grind chalenge will stop us now

 

Now i need damn formas man.

Well tomorrow at lunch time I'll be online as usual, I have tons of keys and we can hunt for keys together!

Anyway Detron is not bad in the end:I think I'll put a lot of Forma onto it, I want to be able to compare it to Brakk properly!

And it's damn cool looking!

[JJStorm]

Finally!

Worst grind I've ever done, really painful but it's over now. Thanks to everyone who played with me and contributed to this topic!

I've played with so many of you that if I have to name you all it would take a full thread, but I'd like to thanks in particular those players that have kept running with me even after Detron hunt was done for them and to those that were running for me in solo!!

nameless, SALE and tons of others...and of course a great thank you to magpool, that is so damn lucky I can't believe it, thanks to his spawn I got the barrel I was missing, and he was over with Detron!

 

 

Now we can all start to fear the moment when DE will put Prova Vandal in Harvester drops...

Pic seems to be broken, but Gratz!

[JJStorm]

Now just waiting for Plasma to get his last part, so he can finally R.I.P~

[Sir_Alex_Traffo]

Pic seems to be broken, but Gratz!

How broken??

 

Jesus, Plasma is still on it....did he find somehing else than BP?

[Storchenbein]

I'm an inch away from giving up...

I have the feeling my deathmark is bugged (A pre E-mail update mark), I got NOTHING for the last 200 missions.

People getting Harvesters left and right makes me feel like crap.

[Althix]

the same. no harvester. at all.

[BizarreFetalChimpanzee]

I'm on getting on right now to try getting Harvester to spawn. Send me a pm if you want to help spawn this annoying pet of RNG

[Xandis]

Just got the Harvester on my tail on the Invasion at Saturn. Got my first Detron part, which was the BP. Sheesh, and it only took 50 years for it to finally show up! Nice going and congrats for all you other guys who just finished gathering through walls of RNG!

 

EDIT: It seems I got two drops from one battle, the BP and a Barrel! Guess that narrows things down for me!

Yeah... I have a feeling that's gonna take a while. All I need is Barrel, though.

Well I am up for some runs if anyone is doing them.

Congratulations dude, i know how hard you were farming this thing since the beggining. You desserve it!!

[Killerdude8]

So, Anyone wanna help me farm this thing?

Send me a PM if you need an Extra body with the copydog mark.

[Voidflow]

I have no idea how people can have so many harvester attacks. 

It feels like I hated by RNG gods. I like this gun so badly and wanted since dilemma event.

 

Now I starting slowly to hate this grind, RNG, this game ... I start to dislike everything about Warframe ... because of RNG ... kind of allergy  

 

I need it to compliment my Lanka build ... damn ... 

I do all the time invasion for grineer > battle pay > got that message and then Io or Elara grind ...

only one!!! only 1 time I was attacked by harvester ... and this was before 11.8.3.

[Cookedtoast]

Took me 2 harvester spawns (both on me)

First one gave me the barrel then the other one gave the last two pieces I need.

(took me forever to get both of them though)

Ok guys, i recieved the alad V message right when the messages have been introduced, i was hunting him a week and he doesnt even showed up, today i was just playing the invasions and ranking up Nyx and harvey was on the hunt, not after me but after my squadmates and now i´m building my detron, you should just stop hunting him, he will hunt you, he appeared in the grineer tile set so GL guys

[Leinender]

from what I understood

Alad/Stalker/Harvester - repeat

 

 

FIRST GAME THAT IVE ACTULATY GRINDED AND ITS F! HORRIBLE!

but worth from other side...

[Sir_Alex_Traffo]

Too bad that after this long and frustrating hunt it'll be nerfed before we can really enjoy it...

[.Talia.]

Why would they nerf it? Its not OP.

[RahuHordika]

It isn't but of course it'd seem that kind of complains would come mostly from Brakk users as evidenced by a recently locked thread.

Edited January 23, 2014 by RahuStalker

[.Talia.]

Brakk users always whining... i wanna see their rage when Brakk gets re-released :P

[1Mau]

Anybody have a farming group going?

[Duk282]

I'm marked -anyone else that has a mark send me an invite. 

[Dead_Rabbits]

I've still yet to see the harvester even after the hotifx. i don't even want the detron now.

[EvanTheNewbie]

I got two stalkers during invasions. No message either, wth?

[Brynslustafir]

If anyones doing some Harvetser farming, I'm available.
