Where Do You Farm Cores Now, Since Triton Got Nerfed Hard?

[Monolake]

Since Triton rewards got nerfed hard it is useless for cores now (~1hr only 10 cores) and survivals don't give much either.

Whats the spot with reliable core drops now?

Seriously, I think Triton or T4 Void survivals are the only reliable ways right now. (Maybe T3/T4 defense since the core rewards got buffed?)

[RagingGrizzly]

Triton is still a reliable place, for me anyways. All I do is do the first two rotation A's, and I book it to extract. Rinse and repeat. I get a crap ton of r5s. (In comparison to the tables and other mission types.)

Uranus AW intercept. Cores actually drop frequently in mission, and core packs are usually in the reward rotation between waves.

1 hr playing it overall (4 or 5 runs and I dont know how many drills)  - only 10 R5 cores. Its a waste of time now (unless you want many powerthrows)  Keys are low tier ones too,  for example  http://i.imgur.com/zfRD2gV.jpg

 

It used to net about 1 core per 2 min on average.

Do they give 5x core packs as rewards? how many on average, if you can tell? Could be the case that DE lowered cores chance in excavation to make people play boring archwing intercepts :/

[Trichouette]

Usually i just do triton but i don't get why people extract > come back

I find it faster to stay and get keys (or crap mods) since doing 2 rotation is kinda fast considering the fact it's excavation and after some time the excavator spawn quite fast.

Cassini, Survival on Saturn, 10 minutes and extraction. Easy and fun.

Triton got nerfed? It sounds more like another cafe of bad RNG.

I find I usually get 5 rare packs once or twice per run. There are occaisional runs with none however, but more often than not, I score 5-10 per 4 waves, plus random core drops during the mission (AW Mod pool is much smaller than non-AW drop pool).

I recommend to run 2 rounds and extract. Faster than way, as rotation B rewards a single rare core at most.

[Fluttershy93]

Considering i got 45 cores in 1 run of Triton i wouldn't say it got nerfed, let alone even changed. So please try and think before calling something ''nerfed and changed'' when they have not even touched it. Triton is still the best place for easy cores.

[Kalvorax]

Dark sector survivals, namely the one on jupiter...even a 5 min run can get me a 5 pack of r5s....normally i get two of those back to back at 5 and 10 minutes...stay till 20 then repeat....but thats just me.

[DrCrawford]

I run DS survival on Uranus, Ceres, Pluto or Eris depending on which maps i feel like running.

 

I do 15 mins in each DS surv, get my cores, my void key, rinse repeat.

 

-The days of cores raining from the sky like the old times are gone though, so don't go expecting a miracle.

[venon23]

ceres DS surv 10 mins  3uncumon or 5rares ate 5mins and stay for the 10 mins for 5rares so normal is 8 or 10 cores per 10 mins
20k credits and nice xp i take nekros and tonkor so problem or do more 5 mins and get a key

32 cores this morning. I average 10-20 staying around 1600 excavation points and I play daily.

Otherwise its also alright if you play Ophelia on Uranus for decent r5 drops as well as chances for tellurium and rare bullet jump mods.

 

 

 

EDIT:

I just finished Triton a few minutes ago and I got 17 cores and it was 1600 cryo, fits with my typical runs. 10 being not so good and 20 being a pretty decent run. I will run another and post what I get in a little bit.

Sounds about right to me.

it sure does feel like it get nerfed. I  farmed 1,000+ cores for Primed mods there and I can tell you that place don't drop the cores it used to. I dont remember the last time I got more then 15 cores on around 2k cryotic.

And yet i have a completely different experience, and i've been maxing quite a few P. mods through this method mind you.

I wonder if some players understand what 25% chance on rotation A means.

 

For those that seem to be strugling, it means there is a 75% chance of you getting something else besides your precious cores.

 

That means 2000 cryotic will give you 10 chances at 25% each, so you should get around 2 or 3 stacks of 5 cores, sometimes you get more, sometimes you get less.

These so called 10 cores in 1 hour (time is irrelevant, thanks op for that useless detail) assuming they did 2000 cryotic, 10 cores seems to be just about right

It may be RNG
