Mistake number one: Buying platinum packs on STEAM! You get more on main site :(

 

Mistake number two: Using all platinum to buy more frames like Nyx, Loki, Ash, Banshee, Volt, Nova only to not like them(except Nova of course). I shoulda got better frames(looking at you BOOBEN)

 

Mistake number three: Buying a control module with platinum

 

Good thing I did: Bought more slots in inventory

Not leveling the starter weapons to 30 before moving onto bigger, better things.

 

I just spent my Affinity Booster from the event doing just that.

Oh I know the pain, that Mk1-Braton is a pain to level, I got it to 25 the other day and could not do the last 5 level as it felt like my brain was melting.

Spending roughly 1500 plat in mod packs.  (sigh...  this was before they removed ability mods from them)

 

Spending about 700 plat in void key packs...  (this was before we could farm keys easily in defense missions)

 

Eh, oh well...  I'm glad I discovered crafting early on and built every weapon/warframe, except Ash and the Stalker Pack.

 

This game gives so much away for free, that it's alright to splurge and make these mistakes once in a while.

My largest, I think, was hording.

I would only rank up Mods with duplicates of the mod itself and since, back then, you needed a different copy for each weapon. I had a lot of the same mods with different ranks on them.

I didn't use fusion cores unless it was absolutely necessary.  It's a habit now and I have hundreds of r5 and thousands of fusion cores total.

I thought the Void was someplace that required a group so I would get keys but never go as I didn't really know anyone and wasn't comfortable recruiting. I have, literally, hundreds of keys now even after using more than a hundred keys to farm for stuff in the last 2 months.

 

I'm a packrat by nature and spring cleaning is a painful chore for me IRL too... I can guarantee I have articles of clothing that are older than some of the posters on this forum.

Spending my 50 plat on a syandana.

 

Wanting to make a melee build and thinking how I was getting somewhere cuz I had an Orthos with North Wind.

 

Running around with my Mag swinging at everything.

 

Thought I had to have chosen Excalibur to be good at melee.

 

Thinking melee was actually good for something.

 

Going to nightmare runs way earlier than I should have to get those sweet rare mods, and getting revived and carried.

 

 

Probably more than that but that's all I can remember.

- Spending starter plat on revives & rushing SOME stuff.

 

- Selling the Cronus. Now I miss that thing...

 

- Going solo into a Void Exterminate when I was still using basic stuff.

 

- Selling A TON of fusion cores before hitting Rank 2/3. Totally regret it now.

 

- Going into Nightmare mode using basic equipment, solo... Then wondered why was everything at Rank 30 and I was doing SOOOOO little damage.

My big one was never buying the Braton, I carried the Mk1 all the way to pluto in the days of U8 before going straight to the boltor XD (granted, the boltor was godlike back then).

 

Still haven't gotten a regular Braton up to 30 despite owning 2 of them XD (normal and IAH Games)

 

My other big mistake? Ignoring Volt with his amazing electric shield until damage 2.0 dropped.

I have my account since open beta came out, but didn't really play back then, i only started playing for real in the week of Gravidous Dillema. But i was a complete n00b and had absolutelly no idea of what was going on. Only after the event i realized i had just lost the best weapon in the game (Not anymore? Well back then it was). I finished the event with 76 points, enough to get the Machete Wraith. But then i sold it. Yes, didn't even use it, just sold it.

Wow... Glad I never threw away any special weapons.

Refusing to fuse mods or spending resources due to compulsive hoarding.

Was just about to say that lol...I did the same, until I was 101% certain that I REALLY NEED TO DO THAT, and it indeed is helpful for my min-maxing endgame build...that way I didn't make any mistakes.

Potatoed Paris(non prime) then a day after, dread showed itself to me.

Same thing happened to me.

Except I was ignorant to the fact of the stalkers gear and stalker. So when I did research and found out that Dread just wrecked it I was not a happy camper, so I got it potato'd it and then like 3 days later.

*PARIS PRIME*

GG.

Picking Mag over Excalibur is a mistake?

When I didn't really use her to her fullest, ended up not liking three of her powers, and didn't have ability boosting mods, yes it was, for me at least. Especially when I would have liked Excalibur's abilities a lot more.
