SpiderWaifu Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I've heard all about the fancy Multishot, puncture, Power+, PowerCost down, Power Duration/ Radius+ mods... But I've never actually gotten one. Well, I did get one puncture mod, but it was low grade. All I ever seem to get for Warframe mods are Armor%, Shield, HP, Sprint, and Melee% mods. Do they drop in specific areas or something, or am I just the unluckiest person alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealTuna Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I have also never gotten multishot, puncture, power cost down, or power + mods despite having already invested over 45 hours into the game. I think they are just tough to find, with armor, shield capacity, and health being the most common (in my experience). Or we are just very unlucky :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGeddon Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Pretty sure it's just a result of all those being blue mods. Since they drop less, and blue mods include all the stats from the green/white mods, you'd have a VERY low chance of generating say, a multishot mod(reduced in drop chance due to 1 in xx blue mod drop, further reduced by having more possible mod effects to choose from) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcalane Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I find bosses tend to drop better mods than mooks (when they drop mods at all, which isn't always), and mod level is based off whoever/whatever you kill - higher level enemies mean higher level mods. The Puncture mod I use in my Lex dropped from Nef Anyo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense that they're very hard to find. Do bosses have a higher chance to drop blues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roniseyez Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 90+ hours played (with lots of afks tho), and i have yet to see a Powercost down. Only 1 Puncture so far, and 1 Power+, but last days i got several multishots for shotgun. All about luck it seems so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do bosses have a higher chance to drop blues? Dunno. If we want to know someone would have to track each and every mod drop, it's source, it's quality, it's magnitude, etc. Devs don't give out the drop equations in any game I've ever played.

Sealgaire Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) I had a dry spell for a couple of days, but then I found a 98% rifle multishot, a 35% power efficiency/25% sprint combo, and a 100 shield/ 70% armor combo within a few hours. That's in addition to some fine blue combo mods for melee and pistols that I can't recall the specifics of. All these dropped in Hades, but it really is just a matter of luck.

Volt_Cruelerz Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Ced and I did some mod drop tracking a patch ago here: https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/5916-mod-drop-rates-somewhat-discouraging/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoultzilla Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 In 24 hours of play, only have found 2. Rank 11 Rifle Multi Shot - 47% Rank 5 Warframe Power Efficiency - 6.7% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volt_Cruelerz Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I found a multishot yesterday, though I haven't seen an efficiency mod for several patches (and even then, it was a rank 4 or something like that and worthless). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UkyoSonoda Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 The only multishot and puncture mods I found were blue and both were for a shotgun... Both reside on my Hek lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sealgaire Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Why are people so stoked about puncture? The biggest advantage is the ability to get headshots on Corpus crewmen, and armor piercing does that while giving a damage boost. I've never really felt like being able to shoot through cover or enemies was worth the tradeoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volt_Cruelerz Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) I did try swapping out my +5 puncture with a second +25% piercing for use on Hades. I killed slower. Edited January 29, 2013 by Volt_Cruelerz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never really felt like being able to shoot through cover or enemies was worth the tradeoff. Well the +4 puncture mod I have on my hek also gives a decent damage bonus as well due to being a dual stat blue mod. The thing about armor piercing damage from my observations is the only damage that acutally pierces armor is the % bonus listed on the mod because it lists different damage types seperately by the look of it as shooting 1 time with a pistol that had various +% damage mods of seperate damage types caused multiple number listings to pop on the target from that single bullet. Puncture will allow all the original standard bullet damage to bypass the armor on things like a corpus crewman's helmet. Also I have a habit of finding lots of enemies piled on eachother from just about any faction. Probably because I enjoy checking entire maps and cause multiple squads of troops to pile up and run to my current location and when you open that door and see 10-30 enemies all bunched together running at you puncture is just delicious lol.

I've never really felt like being able to shoot through cover or enemies was worth the tradeoff. That was determined to be a myth, actually. Puncture doesn't bypass Corpus Crewman head armour - at least not with my Braton (3.3m Puncture, raw physical damage, no element/AP). Puncture massively reduces the effectiveness of Shield Lancers, it can punch through the Volt Shields that Hyena puts up, it means enemies can't easily hide, and... well, I just chew through mobs of common infested. There's nothing quite as beautiful as one-shot multi-kills with good Puncture mods and a high-powered weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoultzilla Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 It also nullifies riot shields.. You can aim slightly above shields and still score headshots. The shield does not protect them 100%. Same thing for their feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scherhardt Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 i feel bad right now farming mods for almost 2 days. I never get a different variation of mod. Always get health,elec/freeze dmg,reload speed,ammo cap,stun chance and crit dmg almost all of them are white. *sigh. It's really OK if i get whites as long as i get many different types like sprint,melee dmg,shield recharge,charge dmg ETC.. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainDreamer Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 You can aim slightly above shields and still score headshots. The shield does not protect them 100%. Same thing for their feet. Well, you can either aim carefully with a percision weapon to kill them, or you can run face on with a puncture hek and blast them without even slowing down.

DrunkPunk Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Stun is useles, mobs die super quick, game is too easy, crit chance is useless also, damage from crits is super low and chance is super low also, where is explanations about mods ? something is here but not much yet http://warframe.wikia.com/wiki/WARFRAME_Wiki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucleous Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) I have found Multishot, Punkture mods. And some Armor piecing mods. All for shotguns. Also a power range+ mod. Sounds like you are having some bad luck. Btw i have been playing for 3 days.
