Efficient Farming Guide (Credit Farm)

[jeffrey]

Hello, This is a guide taken from our clan recruitment post. I thought I'd post it here in-case anyone is looking for the guide only. Feel free to leave questions and comments. 

As this is my first guide, please point out any mistakes or flaws you see. It'll be highly appreciated. Thanks!

Notes on Warframes & Warframe BUILDS

Chroma

• Chroma's Ultimate buffs credit drops by twofold within ~7-10m of the Sentry
  • Credit buff range unaffected by power range mods
• On kill, gives 60% chance of Credit drop and a guaranteed (100%) chance of doubling credits.
• Chroma Builds:
• Spoiler

  Chroma Barebones Low Strength Build (All Mods Can be Maxed) : 

  CP9's Build-This is the build I use (Steel Fiber-Makes up for the armor lost when using Chroma's Ultimate. Primed Continuity- Makes up for the duration lost; useful for casting Elemental Ward and Vex Armor. Rage-Just there because I couldn't find anything else to put there. This build could've been further optimized by putting in - polarities but this build is sufficient for credit farming.): 

  Chroma Max Strength Build (Missing Intensify+Power Drift; I chose not to use intensify because the duration mods that are put in help to decrease the energy cost. Without the duration Mods, the build would drain far more energy/second. *Keep in mind, Low Duration hinders the use of Elemental Ward and Vex Armor skills* You can put in your own PowerDrift if you forma enough.): 

Vauban

• Vauban Builds:
• Spoiler

  [Perpetual Vortex] Vauban Build (Consider replacing [Enemy Sense] with [Coaction Drift]):

Nekros

• [Natural Talent] Mod affects how fast you can desecrate bodies
  • Normally you don't desecrate every body you kill due to the time constraints of desecration
  • How Nekros Desecrate works: Rolls (destroys) each body with an X Chance (54% at max) at dropping extra loot.
• Nekros has a 54% chance to successfully desecrate a body
• Nekros Builds:
  • Polarities: V-Aura, D, —, —, V (This one is a default polarity on Nekros Prime)
• Spoiler

  Despoil [Natural Talent] Nekros Build(The Exilus Mod Slot can be fitted with Mobilize, Coaction Drift, or Speed Drift.):

  or you can replace [Stretch] with [Vigor] (760vs860HP; 58.75vs47.5M):

Trinity

• Trinity Builds:
• Spoiler

  EV Trinity Build:

  • (A)—You can substitute this with any other drift/exilus mod (Power drift, Coaction Drift, Cunning Drift)

Nova

• It appears that Nova's Ultimate (Molecular Prime) works with Secura Lecta's Credit Buff

Banshee

• Banshee Builds:
• Spoiler

  DPS [Resonating Quake] Banshee Build: 

  Sonar Banshee [Resonance] Build(Consider Substituting [Power Drift] with [Coaction Drift] if Credit Farming:

Concepts

Toggled Abilities

• http://warframe.wikia.com/wiki/Power_Efficiency - This page is a must read (Read it)
• Power Efficiency Chart taken off of Warframe Wiki; Left Axis: Duration, Top Axis: Efficiency (Bright Green, the maximum efficiency, is your goal)  

Affinity

• Enemies killed by (% Affinity):
  • Warframe Abilities: 100% to Warframe.
  • Your Weapons: 50% to Warframe, 50% to Weapon (that did the killing).
  • Sentinel: 50% to Sentinel, 50% to Sentinel Weapon, 0% to Warframe, 0% to Weapon.
  • Kubrow: 100% to Kubrow, 0% to anything else.
  • Allies: 25% to Warframe, 75% to Weapons (75% of the Affinity is rewarded to the weapons you brought with you to the mission. Ex: You brought {Warframe X~Banshee}, {Weapon Y~Lanka}, and {Weapon Z~Acrid}; {Warframe X~Banshee} would get 25% of the Affinity, and the remaining 75% of the Affinity would be divided up among {Weapon Y~Lanka} and {Weapon Z~Acrid} which works out to 25% per weapon); Sentinels+Sentinel weapons get their own category, and a separate copy of the Affinity is created and split between the Sentinel and Sentinel Weapon.
• Detailed Explanation on Reddit

Boosters

• Credit Booster (Post-Mission)
  • Doubles Credits gained from the mission (Post-Mission)
  • Works on Mission Credit rewards and Credit Pick-ups
• Resource Drop Chance Booster (In-Mission)
  • Increases the chance that an enemy will drop resources (In-Mission); also increases the drop chance of rarer resources (In-Mission).
• Resource Drop Booster (In-Mission)
  • Doubles Resources gained frrom pick-ups while In-Mission
  • Does not affect Credit drops, nor does it affect end of mission reward resources; Ex: Argon/Nitain Alerts.
• Affinity Booster (In-Mission/Post-Mission)
  • Doubles Affinity gained both In-Mission and post-mission bonuses

Buff Frames-Warframes that give buffs to allied warframes 

• Sonar [Resonance] Banshee, Piercing Roar Rhino, Speed Volt, Warcry Valkyr

Secura Lecta

• Essential Credit Farming Weapon
• Must be Dual-Wielded to utilize its Credit Buff
• On Kill: Credit Buff gives an 100% Credit Drop chance, and gives double credits

Is that what that bonus does?!  I never knew.  Thanks.

Very comprehensive and complex guide.  Thanks for taking the time to make this.

Sonar Banshee [Resonance] Build(Consider Substituting [Power Drift] with [Coaction Drift] if Credit Farming:

Or forma it, get an adapter and use both?

Yes, you can certainly Forma the Banshee on the exlius slot to use both. Thanks for the feedback!

Why is there a Megathread Tab?

[jurachim]

I'll add my personal favorite way of farming credits:

 

Eris - Zabala (Survival). I like 1h runs, but it's up to you how long to stay there. Find a room and camp there, hitting doorframe with your lecta.

Warframes to bring: Chroma for passive 10m credits boost area (place near doorframe), Nekros, EV, random.

Weapons: 1 Secura Lecta is enough, CP auras - not really needed.

With boosters on you, you can get 2.700K / Hr.

Here are my today's results from 2 runs (Maiming strike lecta build):

I'll definetly check it out later; looks interesting!

Edit: Tested it out, are you sure you don't mean 1,700K/Hr? I might be doing something wrong, but I haven't been able to get results that would equate to 2,700K/Hr.

Are you running all boosters? Not sure if you checked screenshots I posted earlier, but here they are re-uploaded to imgur:

Here is screenshot from our recent run with -CP9- together (could get more than that, not best room and super annoying EV dude):

Eu adicionarei minha maneira favorita pessoal de cultivar créditos:

 

Eris - Zabala (Survival) . I como 1h partem, mas a você quanto tempo para estadia. Encontre um quarto e acampe lá, batendo porta com sua lecta.

Warframes para trazer: Chroma para passiva 10m créditos reforçar área (lugar perto doorframe), Nekros, EV, aleatória.

Armas: 1 Secura Lecta é suficiente, CP auras - não é realmente necessário.

Com reforços em você, você pode obter 2.700K / Hr .

Aqui estão os meus resultados de hoje a partir de 2 corridas (Maiming strike lecta build):

Optional, when you're allready running with a sonar banshee:

 

Make the banshee equip Fracturing Crush (reduces armor to zero as well) and bring other auras.

[Saethea]

Why an EV ? There shouldnt be real energy or health issue, and instead you could bring a speed nova. What am i missing ?

 

And isn't fissure even better than simple survival ?
