Helping Hand/Question

[Seinerweisen]

My friend is stuck at the Queens battle in TWW. He is using a potato computer and he cant transition from Warframe to Operator fast enough to kill the guards without getting immediately crushed. Can I log into his account and beat this part for him or do I need to tell Devs or what? 

[Sophista]

So, let me put it that way:

Your friend can login from any location he wants to. DE does not limit accounts to country/location of original registration.
However, It is against terms of service to give access to your account to 3rd parties.

So lets simply assume that your friend would "make the trip" to your place, logged in, beaten fight, logged off, and came straight back to his place.

And just stick to that version

Mind tho, any abuse, will be discovered (very easy) and will be dealth with(hard way)

I don't see any reason why that shouldn't be fine. It's not like you're using two accounts to get around things like trading caps or inventory space.

I believe it's the sharing of account details that is forbidden.

You should be ok if your friend logs in to Warframe on your PC and you play through that section of the quest for him, as long as he doesn't actually tell you his password.

Obviously, you may want to check this with DE first via a support ticket.

Care to quote the relevant section?

Although I read it the way I stated, I think it was ambiguous enough that some may prefer to have DE clarification.

Nope. Too lazy.
But as you stated. its against the rules to share(or give access in any way) to your account. 
Im with you there, all im saying, there is really no reason for support ticket.

Ok, here's the section that I believe applies:

Quote

The Account you create is personal to you and Digital Extremes does not allow the transfer of user Accounts.  You shall not purchase, sell, gift or trade any Account, or make any such offer, and any attempt shall be null and void.  Any distribution by you of your Account and/or your Login Credentials (except as expressly provided herein or otherwise explicitly approved of by Digital Extremes) may result in suspension or termination of your Account.

By my interpretation of that section, telling someone else your password is against the terms, but logging on yourself and allowing them to play on your account isn't.

Youre right, but have to remeber this:

That section just states that you can install Warframe on a computer you own or have legitimate use of, it says nothing about who can then use that computer to play Warframe.

Well,See how many times theres YOU/Your in section i quoted? 
My interpretation is, you install the software. You accept agreement. YOU can use that software for service.
So if you invite friend over, and he ONLY created account, But YOU previously Installed warframe, your friend while playing, does not play under agreement of both TOS and EULA, only TOS.

I may be completely wrong...
them licenses and agreements right>?

And this is really my point on why seeking clarification from DE may be useful.

The terms are ambiguous, at least to most people who don't practice law.
