Ravtek Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 The plastid drop rates seem to be a bit different after all the drop rate shenanigans being fixed. Anyone else finding that plastid is a bit more difficult to find now? I've ran the usual places I go to during U8, and it only takes me an hour to get roughly 1.5k plastids. Now I'm doing 4 hour farm runs just to barely get 1.5k. The only place I've found that is good for plastids is running infested mobile defense with 4 players, but those places aren't populated like Kappa, so it's still slow :/ Plastids, for me, the struggle is real. lol Anyone here found any new spots to farm or is everyone else having similar issues?

Tyrian3k Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I also have to say that it is really the only resource I have problems finding in sufficient quantities, especially since it is needed in such large amounts for the dojo weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoticNemesis Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I've been running Cordelia, Uranus for a while now and even after the update I'm getting an average of 50-125 a run. Could give it a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeveras Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Well I still run into the occasional plastid pickup and I've already have so many stockpiled I don't know what to do with them so no for me the struggle isen't real sorry. As for farming spots personally I get them on a regular basis in infested exterminates and capture missions on eris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiro24 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Oh yes, I know how you feel. Gather them 19 plastids at a time..... all yesterday from 12:30pm to 9:00 pm and barely got 500 in Uranus/Saturn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadlandsHyena Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 They need to tweak the numbers a little I think.. I'm getting WAAAY too many polymer bundles and waaaay too few plastids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scuura Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I spent most of the time after U9 farming plastids for the now easier to get clan tech. I spent most of it in Cordelia, Uranus as someone else stated. It's a Raid mission in the Grineer Galleon, which means a lot of breakable boxes.

Grilleds Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Just did an Eris mobile defense mission. Killed over 1500 enemies. Got one drop of plastids. Yeah, drop rate for them is borked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlissfulAokii Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Time for another RNG fix D< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ler110 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I am sitting on about 3k plastids right now. I have nothing to spend them on though so I am sort of stuck with 3k plastids. I seem to find them all the time.....when I am not looking for them anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofRobin73 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I've been farming Saturn ever since the update. Cassini is a decent place to get plastids now, even with the stupid nano spores in the loot table. Plastids consistently drop more than nano spores at Cassini. At least for me they do.

Davoodoo92 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Found tethys a decent place to farm these along with orokin cells from ruk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadAimbot Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I used to farm them on Uranus but the difficulty jump makes that harder (luckily I've made all the clan weapons I wanted except the new one). I don't want to farm them alongside Nano Spores, which I have far, far too many of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batwing Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Yep i try running cordelia and I get maybe if I'm lucky 50-80 a run and now that there's 4 armies of enemies it takes about 20-30 mins to solo.I prefer soloing since it's hard finding people who actually wanna loot sometimes.And with the drop rate+ the army of enemies with buffed health and lvl 30 it's just not worth the time anymore.Rather just wait until the drop rates are better or until the enemies get less bs cause lvl 30 on a raid with maybe 100-200 enemies 15-20 per small room yeah not happening :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
