Pendragon1951 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I think the issue that people dislike about the event is that the awards are RNG based, whereas in ALL previous events it simply was based on completion of a task to get the rewards, that is my main issue which was even more complicated by the last hotfix making you unaware of what you received until the end of mission and for me that is where my enjoyment of this event got derailed.

Leavith Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) I feel like most people are not understanding this is RNG Reward event and Is run x amount of mission you get Y rewards They work together but all people are interested are the new mods yet we are getting rewards as of now it doesn't matter but once we unlock the final boss it should. I just like the fact that they are making this more different Edited January 28, 2016 by Leavith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o0Despair0o Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I haven't even bothered to start the game in the first place...and I don't really care about the event neither. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leavith Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) Okay I did say Who Else is enjoying the event not who is feeling miserable or hasn't bother to play it. Is understandable if you don't like it is okay but this thread was to discuss thing you enjoy. Edited January 28, 2016 by Leavith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pendragon1951 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I think for myself I'm going to sit out the rest of the event and play World of Warships till all the acolytes are killed then come back for the final part:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightsofsanghelios Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I've really been enjoying the new event, if it weren't for the people in the community complaining about the mods and making the whole event take longer, I would enjoy it even more. Especially since the real event reward isn't even the mods, they're more like a side bonus. The real event reward is the sixth mission with the Vulkar Wraith (That I am very much looking forward to) and the Lacera skin. Along with the trophies, the sigil, and the badge. [and also the potatoes are nice] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o0Despair0o Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I've already suffered enough from the Ivara farm-fest. And when I heard about the event and its rewards, I was like "f**k. that." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaftMeat Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I thoroughly enjoy the new NPCs. I think the re-use of in-game assets to create new characters is a quick and neat addition, and I admire the ingenuity of whomever came up with them. However, it is quite a grind to get these mod. There are A LOT of new mods. And the rare can seem super rare. And of course, it's left to RNG which really does not sit well with some people. I've heard some people got all of them in as little as 64 runs. It took me 271 runs. Also, I'm currently on a sabbatical from work, so I have the time to invest in this. I feel bad for those at work or school who will now miss out on the Angst grind. It's give and take, good and bad. Hopefully this is yet another learning experience for future events as well.

Aetherial_Enigma Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 10/10 would get a bronze mod 50 times in a row Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kontrollo Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Actually, what bugged me the most was people leaving and the host migrations before. But now that that's fixed, I'm enjoying it somewhat. It gets a little old after a while, but I'm not giving up on those mods yet. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaotyke Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I've been enjoying the event. I'd appreciate it if I got a rare mod at some point or the uncommon I haven't got off Angst yet but I know I'll have a chance later anyway. What I have enjoyed is running missions that I wouldn't normally do such as Rescue. The only complaint I'd have is the amount of Alad V chat. I hate him and it sickens me that we are fighting to protect him. Lets go to Jupiter again and give him another drubbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valletta Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 So right now we are killing the emo stalkers and once they are all dead we will get the final mission. (Which I assume is wave based.) However as you know by killing these enemies we get drops, and at this point I'm pretty much done farming for nothing. (I just want argon scope is it that much to ask?) So, what I assume is going on here, is in order to get people to play this horrid event they tease us with rare mods and low drop chances so that they can be killed. But what I think will happen is during the final mission it will give us all the mods anyways. Otherwise I am going to be extra satly. Is there any info released on the final part of the event?

Neswii Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I really enjoyed the event so far, it being my first. I've gotten 5 argon scopes, 13 blood rushes, 1 maiming Strike, 1 Pressurized something, and at least 1 of the other uncommon mods. Granted most was through abort farming (NOT in public, solo only or with a friend). Also aborting still works technically, if you are in a non-public party and the host aborts after killing the Acolyte, the other party members get the mod still, just the host doesn't. So sometimes when it lands on defense we kill 'em and abort, reap in the mods and divide the rares among ourselves if we ever get 2 of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firetempest Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) http://warframe.wikia.com/wiki/Misery I imagine the drop rates will be the same. 4% for rare. only this time, if it is a rare, its one of 5 different rares. So you cant focus farm. Edited January 28, 2016 by Firetempest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vilmu Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I'm at 105 confrontations and only missing the rare from Torment (and obviously the mods from the 5th acolyte). So either you're really unlucky or I'm lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaysus41 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 It's alright. I've been jumping in and out. Got all the mods that are currently available. Can't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firetempest Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 But is it actually going to be you fight him and it drops one mod for each encounter? We have no idea if its the same wait and pound as the current acolytes. Yet its a solid 3 days so no life gauge I imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taiiat Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 now that playing in Public isn't just a never ending loading screen of Host Migrations, i can have a good time with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickelshark Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) I am having fun modding. It's been a while since we had mods this fun to play around around with. It made me go back and take another look at weapons I haven't used in a while. Edited January 28, 2016 by nickelshark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vectirius Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 This event is great because I don't usually play low level missions, only sortie nowadays, and now I feel like an op god burning everything nearby with World of Fire. I can walk among burned corpses, not even aiming with my gun, slaying low level enemies just with my presence... Event is easy and fun, when you don't look at all whining people about don't getting a rare mod, which seriously doesn't change much. I always think that not everyone should have everything in game (I am not a fan of putting event mods/weapons to normal drop tables after some time - the reward from event should be special and not accessible to everyone crying that they don't have one). But returning to main topic... Event is great! Community goal like with Balor Fomorians, but with no consequences in case of failure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSpite Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 You hate an event that you felt you needed to grind? That's called being rational. If I was forced to do the same thing over and over and over in a vain effort to get something, I'd be pretty miserable too. Perhaps next time, do not grind. You could, in fact, fight other acolytes, or do other missions. There's a Grineer/Corpus invasion offering Golden Potato for both sides. Go do that instead. Getting rare stuff does not equal fun. Grinding does not equal fun. Stop trying to believe that both are your ultimate path to enjoying the event. It'll save you a lot of blood pressure meds later in life. Because it's not worth it. For the love of DE Rebecca, please, take a break from the event, and enjoy the rest of the game. The event will still be here for you when you feel better. I still don't understand why people "grind" for these things. The world does not end because they are missing Mods. What about all the people that start playing Warframe a month from now? They won't have any of the new mods, pretty sure they will be able to play just fine. Must be just the OCD mentality of "get all the Pokemons".

Don't know if this helps, but I'm assuming since they will be wave based, we will have a normal chance each wave to get one of these mods, which may be bogus being that there are 20 of them. Not only that, but it may take more time. This photo may be able to help you out, it is a datamined chart of the drop rates for all acolytes (including final boss "misery"). Assumptions can be made that misery will have these drop rates. http://imgur.com/a/i5jQn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
