SnoWidget Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) For the fun of it I'm going to be posting an update every time I do a xini run of how many other mods I got from it so far. By the looks of it so far I have- 33 Slash dash 31 reach 21 fury 41 rip line 14 reaping spirals 12 smite grineer 5 mind control 10 diamond skin So maybe I haven't sacrificed enough goats to the RNG gods lately to get this mod but has anyone else been having trouble getting it? Been running Xini for about the past few weeks now only to leave every time with a handful of diamond skin mods...

Mythblaze Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I received Gleaming Talon the first day it was available. If GT was as difficult as you make it seem, wouldn't the mod be selling for hundreds of platinum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Legolegend144 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 This probably has been said too many times already, but transmutation can potentially be your friend. That's how I obtained mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beladric Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Transmutation is most certainly not my friend right now. If I get one more Steel Fibre for my sentinal I swear... Anyway, GT is a rare drop off a rare enemy. Your going to need a lot of sacrifices to get that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Ew_Tux Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Got it of Transmutation first day it was released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalawantahr Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Was looking for Stalking Fan, instead I got the Gleaming Talon. RNGod works in mysterious way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoWidget Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 I've already exhausted all the rare mods i can spare via transmutation, that's no longer an option for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beladric Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I'm down to using spare stances and prayer, myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecapitatingJim Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Transmute. I got 2 of them from it. Never seen it drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-HAKUNA-YOUR-TATAS- Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Hmmm... 3-4 weeks of playing the same map for 2-3 hours every night vs. 50p in trading... Tough choice... XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanicus Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Still hunting this one myself too. Transmuting so far has got me everything BUT Gleaming Talon - hell, I've got about 4 Crushing Ruins, 3 Brutal Tides and 3 Crimson Dervishes from Transmuting alone.One day Xini will grant me a Gleaming Talon. Probably around the same time I see the Harvester again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaftMeat Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Running leech farms for 2 weeks, no drops. Nothing from Transmutation. When I've asked in trade chat, no one is selling it. Gotta love RNG... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrimsonPorpoise Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I've burned through all my credits and rare mods that I have amassed since day one (Having never transmuted before), and was down to my last four rare mods when the Random Number God finally appeared. His face was obstructed by the holy light as he approaches me, gently placing his hands over mine. Then he withdrew his hands, revealing.... Reflex Guard. I have have now embark on the treacherous journey into "Real Life", in hope of finding a few healthy goats. Will return when there are results.

CatPhoenix Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 With Transmutation, is it better to Transmute 4 rares, 4 uncommons, or 4 commons to get these stances? Does one yield better odds than others? Does transmuting particular mods have a better chance than other mods? I know it costs more to transmute rare and uncommon mods, but I haven't had any luck at all with transmutation previously. In fact, most of the time in the past when I transmute 4 rare waframe mods, I get a common mod back so yeah... any way to game the RNG in any way with transmutation?

SnoWidget Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 I'm pretty sure Frame abilities that are considered "rare" will always result in commons when transmuted, that's what I've noticed from personal experiences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGear Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) With Transmutation, is it better to Transmute 4 rares, 4 uncommons, or 4 commons to get these stances? Does one yield better odds than others? Does transmuting particular mods have a better chance than other mods? With Transmutation, everything is down to chance. However, using certain mods will affect your chances for a particular rarity of mods:- Using mod of a particular rarity will give you a greater chance of obtaining mods of the same rarity, i.e. using Rare mods increases your chances of getting Rare mods.- Using all mods of a particular polarity appears to give you better chances of obtaining a mod with the same polarity, i.e. using mods with v polarity will give you good chances of getting a mod with v polarity.As mentioned though, everything is up to chance, and you still have a chance of getting a common mod from transmuting Rares. So yeah, if you keep getting Ammo Drums after sinking money into Transmuting four Rares, there's really nothing you can do about that.Nearly a third of all the 27 stances in my possession were acquired via Transmutation, including rares like Crimson Dervish (which I got from my very first Transmutation post Update 13), Cleaving Whirlwind, Crushing Ruin, and Gleaming Talon. I'm pretty sure Frame abilities that are considered "rare" will always result in commons when transmuted, that's what I've noticed from personal experiences. The last time I transmuted 4 rare Warframe ability mods, I got an Iron Phoenix stance. Is Gleaming Talon really a stance to burn yourselves for? Not only does Gleaming Talon's combos look totally awesome, they also trivialize anything involving Infested due to its CC and AoE attacks.

(PSN)Pengu_Imperialus Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I keep hoping I can find someone looking for some prime part who doesn't want his/her Gleaming Talon. I have gotten many of the rare stance mods through transmutation, and the very first day U13 came out, in the very first game, I got Crushing Ruin, which was the one I truly wanted, so I guess i can't really complain.

Somedude1000 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) 73 Xini runs and 30+ transmutes before i finally got one myself from there Then again, I've been goin there to rank up stuff since u12 sooo yeah :/ Godspeed :D Edited May 29, 2014 by Somedude1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[DE]Momaw Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) I've been trying to get this for over a week now. The only rare drop I've seen drop from ANYTHING in the last several hours of gameplay was a Fired Up right at the end of 25 minutes of void survival. RNGesus has a S#&$-list, and I'm at the top of it. (edit) Transmute: 4 rare mods with a dash polarity, 36000 credits, and I get... Shield Flux. A common. Worth nothing.

SnoWidget Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 Just tried doing what you said with matching polarities, I got a common shotgun mod. There is no logic in this world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
