TrouNoir Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 So I finished my Sobek, I'm very happy with it. Problem is no matter how I arrange the status cards, I can't get them to combine the way I want. I have Blaze and Scattering Inferno for Heat, and then Charged Shell and Contagious Spread to make Corrosive. On paper this should work but no matter how I arrange the mods, I keep getting either Gas or Radiation. The result should be: Heat - 2,864.4 Corrosive - 3,465 But I can't get it to work, I've tried every possible arrangement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Maicael Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 So surely this should work? The order is Charged Shell > Contagious Spread > Blaze > Scattering Inferno. But it doesn't. If your Blaze mod was where your Shotgun Spaz mod is, this would work. Blaze is combining with Charged Shell right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Hydroxate Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Have you switched the last column of mods with the first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Maicael Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 (edited) It's because your Blaze is in the first slot and combining with contagious spread. I think you're going to have to move a Madurai polarity down to put Charged Shell where Blaze currently is.

0 PhoenixElite Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Blaze adds fire damage, and it's in the first slot, move it so it's after the electric and poison mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 (PSN)EnormeMostro Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 You should try Charged Shell and Contagious Spread to make Corrosive first, then equip Blaze and Scattering Inferno for Heat. Make sure Charged Shell and Contagious Spread go first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 NinjaZeku Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 The order in which elemental Mods are checked goes from top left -> top right, then bottom left -> bottom right. Put Charged Shell + Contagious Spread before your Heat Mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 zilaG Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 swap ur Blaze with Shotgun spazz, Scattering inferno with Charged shell and done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ognj Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 (edited) Combined elemental damage is always taking a priority, so plan it so that combined element is on the first row to the left, then add Blaze and Scattering inferno after those two mods.The mod priority works like this: Top row is first, left side is the first one that selects the mods so it goes from left to right, then lower column is the same from left to right. So usually just put the elemental mods on the first row then the rest.Here is the visual representation: Edited January 25, 2016 by Ognj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Phailberry Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 (edited) From top left, going to top right, then bottom left to bottom right, is the order in which the mods have Priority. It's like reading from a book, left to right, then move to the next line below. Your elemental priority is: Fire>Toxin>Fire>Electric, which equals Gas>Electric You need to have your Toxin and Electric first, then put the fire behind them: Toxin>Electric>Fire = Corrosive>Fire Switch around your polarities if needed, you've forma'd that weapon 4 times, give that a shot if needed ^__^ Edit: Hey! Stop forgetting that Blaze is Fire as well, put that in a lower priority :P Edited January 25, 2016 by Phailberry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Maicael Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Damn, so basically my polarities are screwed? You can move the polarities around without using Forma. It just removes all your mods off the weapon. Just go to "Actions" -> "Swap Polarities" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Azamagon Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) Ok so I've read all the posts on this thread. I'm stil new to the game and after reading this even more confused. Will you explain a little bit more about the priority of the mods and why that actually makes a difference. EX...should I put my pure damage multiplier on the top left box and let everything else follow that? Does that even help with added damage compared to me putting it in the bottom right corner?? I'm so confused... The ONLY thing that matters in regards to putting mods in a certain order is mods with elemental damage, and ONLY in regards to what elements they combine into. Nothing else.

EX...should I put my pure damage multiplier on the top left box and let everything else follow that? Does that even help with added damage compared to me putting it in the bottom right corner?? I'm so confused... Like Azamagon said, on weapons only elemental damage mods matter what order they're in, and that's only for the first/second pair of elements. If you want to know more about how to combine elements, what that element does when it "procs", or what combinations are good against which faction, then I'd recommend having a look at the Warframe wiki here: http://warframe.wikia.com/wiki/Damage_2.0 I wouldn't recommend trying to read/understand everything all at once, just use it for reference for specific things you want to do right now. I'm sure anyone that's played a while can tell you that the wiki is really helpful, whether it's finding where specific mods drop, Warframes drop or the specifics on their powers.

0 (PSN)WINDMILEYNO Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) Or in what order your mods unlock on your weapons when they bring dark sector back, but that makes it even more confusing. Sometimes I wonder how I ever learned how to play this game, looking at the questions new people have to ask just to understand one of the many mechanics in warframe, and they even did a tutorial 2.0 Edited January 30, 2016 by (PS4)WINDMILEYNO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question
TrouNoir
So I finished my Sobek, I'm very happy with it.
Problem is no matter how I arrange the status cards, I can't get them to combine the way I want.
I have Blaze and Scattering Inferno for Heat, and then Charged Shell and Contagious Spread to make Corrosive.
On paper this should work but no matter how I arrange the mods, I keep getting either Gas or Radiation.
The result should be:
Heat - 2,864.4
Corrosive - 3,465
But I can't get it to work, I've tried every possible arrangement.
