Neural Sensors HELP

[Levi]

So I've recently started playing again(I played during March 2016) but I never really played all that much and got to this point in the game, but I've recently been playing Warframe somewhat heavily and I have no idea where I should be farming for neural sensors. 

I've killed Alad V multiple times because the Wiki said that he has a high chance of dropping it and I haven't got a single one. Should I keep killing him or is there an easier way to get them?

[(XBOX)BroaderSaucer]

juipiter is the only place that drops them, just play missions on jupiter. alad V has a chance of dropping them, which is much higher than other enemys.

[Levi]

Thanks for your reply!

Since the Alad V mission is so short I'll just keep on killing him until I get one.

[PsychedelicSnake]

Personally, I wait until the Phorid appears on Alad's Node. It dies way faster, and as a result you can speedrun through multiple times. I feel like it has a better drop chance too. Every time I do this I walk away with 100+ Neural Sensors.

play dark sectors ...survival and nekros plus hydroid....or play corpus defense ...40 rounds are enough :)

Jupiter AND Raptor boss fight on Europa.

[ChromeKat]

Jupiter is the only planet that drops them while raptor is the only thing that drops neural sensors in Europa. I still think Jupiter is the only and best option, though I farmed mine during double resource weekends on survivals.

that fight is the most annoying, tedious, and lame bossfight ever. the stupid thing flys around at 90 MPH, rarely shows his horribly hitboxed weakspot, then when he does he cheapshots you 1 second after. the thing is a scaled up osprey with high stats and a stupidly small weakspot. atleast j3 golem was a cool boss to fight, and was unique in some way, even though it also had the atrocious small hitbox mechanic, but atleast it was a cool boss with unique attacks. raptor is worse, because its got an even SMALLER hitbox, isnt unique at all, his fight is painstakingly long for the wrong reasons, and UGHHH i just hate that fight.

Have you fought Vay Hek?

It doesn't have a weakspot, it has an invincibility phase. Otherwise it's vulnerable everywhere.

What? It has three attacks - survivable machine gun, mines, which are avoidable, and homing missilies, which are a pain and more difficult to avoid, but at least they are telegraphed and it uses it only twice per fight.

Again, if it wasn't for this piece I'd thought you're describing Vay Hek fight, because otherwise it describes Vay Hek, not Raptor.

Master Thief mod, somehow boxes and caches usually give more rares then mobs for me.

[(XBOX)UKILR]

I'll be completely honest: I may be lucky. However, I usually get one neural sensor every time I fight Alad V. What weapons do you normally use? I just slam my Broken War into him and his Zanuka several times. I find it to be really easy to speedrun.

Make sure you open all containers and lockers.

And make sure you farm resources during the 2X Resource weekends. I take advantage of those weekends and stock up on neural sensors, neurodes, etc.

[Sloan441]

Put a distilling extractor on Jupiter and keep it running 24/7.

To build up a stash it can maintain, run any Jupiter syndicate, alert, and endless mode when you can tolerate doing them. Equip the diggingest kubrow and master thief. Rifle every locker and breakable container you can find. Once you get around 30 of them, the distiller should be able to keep in neural sensors as long as you're not building dual kamas every day.

[AVEOX]

I used to farm my Neural Sensors @ Alad V node with a Nekros in the squad.
Alternatively, if this gets boring you can try Survival Jupiter.
But no I don't even try, I just bring my Smeeta Kavat and rack up things, yesterday it was 12 Neural Sensors.

[Heckzu]

If you need neutral sensors, I recommend that you breed a Smeeta Kavat on top of farming Alad V. It may take a while, but think of it as an investment. Its Charm ability has a chance to give you a pile of rare resources from the planet you're on, so while farming for neutral sensors from Alad V, your Kavat will occasionally give you a bundle of 5-20 neural sensors.

Vay hek actually had interesting attacks and was unique, unlike the raptor which its a scaled up opsrey with bufffed stats. 

[Zyrgi]

You are doing nothing wrong. It's unfortunate that Alad V is so unkind to not drop them for you. Personally I do one of these things when in need of Neural Sensors:

• Mag + Tigris/Tonkor/Snipetron/Rubico and killing Alad V. Mag helps with fatly killing Alad and Zanuka quite fast with very powerful weapons and you cannot miss.
• Taking Nekros or Hydroid with Pilfering Swarm augment to a Jupiter survival, interception or mobile defense. It's very effective when you get your hands on a resource booster from log-in rewards etc.

If you're really new, I'd suggest you to just forget about the thing that needs you to farm neural sensors, because killing Alad might take a bit longer if you don't have some MLG gear or something and farming one mission excessively might burn you out.

But everything else you said about Raptor was straight up wrong.

Do you know how fast 90 MPH is?
