Tips

[Dividion2011]

I'm a returning player who hasn't really played since beta days as a founder. Looking for tips on how to jump back in and farm items for my warframes. I play excalibur prime and frost.

If you wish for more detailed information on certain things. there is the youtube channel of Brozine, MCgamerCZ or even AGayGuyPlays.

Edit:

Also the Wiki it's your best friend on warframe: http://warframe.wikia.com/wiki/WARFRAME_Wiki

For trading, if you are into that or you wish to spend plat (so you don't get scammed in the trade chat):  https://warframe.market/

Welcome back, our mutual friend NexromancerX69 has pointed out most of it, but maybe I can suggest a couple of thoughts too.

Your first port of call is, and always will be, the Wiki that he linked. But don't be afraid to chat to people in game too. Visit Relays, there are Guides Of The Lotus present in them (players who help players) and they'll be happy to answer more specific questions.

I recommend finding a clan, if you'd like, they usually have good pools of active players to join on missions, and the Clan Dojo has some good resources for a newer player in their Research labs (such as relatively inexpensive blueprints for weapons and even warframes).

Another idea would be to go to the relay and look at the Syndicates, these are minor factions in the game and you can earn XP (or Status) with them by wearing their logos into missions. These guys have some very useful items for sale, such as infinitely re-usable blueprints for Energy, Health and Ammo restores which are useful bits of gear, and their versions are far better than the ones you get from the in-game market or from your clan dojo.

Beyond that, have fun. Play through the main star-chart, play through the quests, explore the PvP mode, it's all up to you. You'll learn best from other players in game where the really good places to farm resources are, although I recommend using Survival or Interception missions on the different planets, they have a good stream of enemies that drop resources, and you can go for as long as you can cope with, extract, and try again for more and more gains.

One particular tip, though? No matter how short you get on Credits, never, ever spend Platinum on the Credit Bundles, they're a trap...

Adding the farm places:

For exp: 

I recommend Hydron Sedna,  it's a grineer defense mission that is fairly high level but there are lots of people doing it so you'll almost always get a squad. A quick 15 waverun with a booster on will level up your weapons to max rank.  Takes 4-5 15 wave runs for warframes.

For Credits:

w/o booster - Index is probably your best bet.  Read up on it on the wikia and also find a squad on recruit chat.

w/ booster - Heiracon, Pluto is the best for me.  Pick up your frost, run one extractor and extract from the mission.  You'll get 48k-50k credits in about 3 mins.  You can do this solo.

Sidenote: Akkad is also good if you want to farm exp and credits at the same time but keep in mind that you'll get less exp compared to Hydron and it takes longer than Heiracon.

For platinum:

There are two reliable ways to farm it: Void fissures and Vault runs.  Running void fissures and opening you're relic give you prime parts which you can sell for plats.  Be sure to always run this in public since you can also choose your other squad member's reward if it is better than yours.

You run Vault runs to get a chance for the Corrupted Mods.   They are essential in warframe and weapon builds so they are in demand. They cost around 15-40 plats and corrupted warframe mods are usually more expensive.

Adding to the posts above, go one step at a time. star chart, new frames and weapons etc... It is like you were frozen since the sixties, too many new things to absorb...
