Help Getting Archwing Mods, And Xp

[TheSteelRat]

Right now my Odanta is around level 14, and I only got 2 mods for it maxed out. (Argon Plating, Morphic Transformer )

 

My Primary is less, but i got about 4 mods.  3 damage types and critical damage increase

 

My Melee is more, again, only 3 mods

 

For the recent Fomorian event I am only getting about 1000 XP if I am lucky.  I seem to be able to only do about 3600 damage per hit with my low ranked, un modded Velocitus. and my top Score is around 4,000,000 ( i think)

I recently did a Jupiter sabotage, and only got about 150 xp

 

Now, for some reason I do have some trouble navigating in Archwing. Most of the time I am trying to keep up and constantly "sprinting". Maybe part of my problem is I have a hard time judging distances in archwing, I know the Sabotage missions a lot of other players that join are rushing it, and have already destroyed the reactor, and are waiting for extraction by the time I actually get in that room

For XP, for lower level AW's and AW wapons, running the two mobile defenses are very useful. The trick to remember is unlike regular warframe missions, AW does not seem to follow the xp division rules (25% to your WF, 75% to your equiped weapons) Instead it seems to split the reward between the AW and only the weapon used for the kill (Shared XP from other players' kills seems to be divided normally, I still need to do more research)

As far as mods are concerned I used to recommend earth interception for both leveling and mod farming, but now that that is no longer an option, my clan has found that corpus sabotage and grineer MD are the best bets for an underpowered AW for mod farming. 

If you are in a clan with the Itzal researched, I too recommend this as being a far superior AW to start with, besides the 3 power working like a super vacuum, the one allows for fast movement, 2 is great for farming mobs with an underpowered weapon to level it and 4 is great cover, letting you focus on kills while the fighter escort knocks out anything that gets too close.

 

Good luck.

You can get a bunch of (shared) Affinity in Defense and Interception.

 

Itzal is a great help for collecting Mods.

Defense Missions reward one Mod per Shuttle that survives each 5 waves (A&B) and Weapon parts on every 20 waves and is a pretty easy mission if you have 4 people.

Caelus interception (Uranus) is the best exping map on archwings. 8 Rounds will max out everything ;)

If you dont have good archwing weapon , you can go solo in Mobile Defense missions on earth , the enemies are lvl 10-14 with your melee you can kill them easy , is like 7.000 or 8.000 xp per run but if you have some friends try to go to Archwing  Defense mission

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this yet, but I favor Corpus-type missions for the storage containers floating around (usually 6).

I had trouble on my first archwing missions, too.

I spent long hours solo, until I felt comfortable with the new mission setting. Since you're weightless, you're "backup" button/control will slow you down and hitting something will bounce you off into the opposite direction.

Yes, you're going to use sprint a lot. Missions are conducted in the vastness of space, or the long winding corridors of a damaged ship.

I'm legally blind, as well. As entertaining as it is watching me bounce off everything, I do this on purpose, just to figure out the distance :}

I have a hard enough time finding the zepplins that are creating a forcefield.  "Oh wait, it is behind those DEBRIS!"  Let alone a mod or resources.

Update:

 

Mobile defense was good for Mods.  got about 8 or so.

 

Itzal is SO much better.  Love it a lot more, even if I am dying a bit more.

Yea... um... i just unlocked Uranus, and it is WAAAAAY on the other side.  So that is not an option unless someone is going to taxi me.
