Lol, Hek sold at 90% discount on Darvo (20 platinum), sold out with 15 hours left. I thought about keeping an eye on him at reset but yesterday's deal was some shit like Bronco at 35% discount so I didn't bother.

Lol, it was sold out when I checked him 15 mins after reset.

Then again Hek it cheap and easy to build.

 

[Wild Slop]

Veykor Hek or no Hek at all.

 

[Mikeal]

Veykor Hek or no Hek at all.

Vaykor Hek cannot use Scattered Justice which makes him useless.

 

[Lazing Dirk]

Veykor Hek or no Hek at all.

Vaykor Hek cannot use Scattered Justice which makes him useless.

Who needs Scattered Justice with a 25% crit chance? Slap some crit chance/damage mods on there and enjoy your 12x+ damage crit headshots on basically every shot, with free Justice built in, and almost 50% faster firerate and double magazine capacity. Hek's good, but the Vaykor shits all over it with the right mods.

WHAT THE FUCK

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

I warmly recommend getting the Feral Kavat skin from Cetus, it really helps with sidestepping the fickle random DNA process.

Also both Kavat types are well worth having, Adarza's buff has a narrower bonus than what Smeeta can give, but it's guaranteed to be the combat relevant bonus; Smeeta's still got a mega-leveling buff chance tho since its double XP two minute buff STACKS with XP booster for quadruple XP and the ability to crap rare resources.

Why is your cat turned inside-out?

So after maxing out New Loka and Perrin I started levelling other syndicates but after a while I noticed not only my standing points with Loka and Perring degrade but MY FUCKING RANK TOO? Wtf? I thought you buy all the titles with all the expensive sacrifices and it's forever!1!!1

 

[Gerrard]

You only have to unlock the ranks once.

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Yea the degradation only requires syndie XP to undo. Obviously you want to go through multiple syndicates so you have all the large consumable BPs. The syndicate weapons can be traded.

 

[cvv]

You only have to unlock the ranks once.

Oh thank you jesus.

On a brighter note - all four Angst mods in 5 runs

 

[Clockwork Knight]

Vauban 40%, sold out with 21 hours left.

Does the chassis even exist? I have like 4 of the other two parts.

 

[Wild Slop]

Of my Vauban parts I have more of the chassis than any other. ?


Acolytes, Acolytes, Acolytes

Angst - Is the first Acolyte and its best drop is the most common: Body Count (51.52% chance)

Malice - Shit

Mania - Drops Weeping Wounds at a 22.22% chance - that's a good one

Torment - Argon Scope - 4.04% chance - Yeah boy!

Actually at a certain point I found myself using Bladed Rounds instead on my favored weapon at the time, the Dex Sybaris. Still cause for celebration if you're able to snatch this one up. Ideally you'll get them both and be able to see which you prefer.
Blood Rush @ 22.22% chance (Good but can be gained from Lua so not nearly as rare as the other, Acolyte event only, mods)​

Violence - Bladed Round 22.22% - Solid ! You want this

Maiming Strike - 4.04 % This is equivalent to that pint of Avellone's piss whispered about, in Warframe mod form (Turns out my last % chance estimate may have been a bit off - I guess I forgot to carry the 2 while crunching my numbers)​

Misery - Drops all of the Acolyte mods - and so lower odds - but still ...

I think this Acolyte comes last

So what's the highest MR cap you've seen? Up until now I've seen a couple of weps and rivens locked at MR14 so I thought I'll get to that and largely forget about grinding MR but now I've got a MR16 riven. So does it go all the way? Is there stuff you can only access at MR20+?

 

[eklektyk]

as far as i know highes cap on rivens is mr18 - for now - it may change so after hiting 18 youre good for awhile

 

[Gerrard]

I don't think it will change, Rivens are now an abandoned feature, like every other new shit[tm] they introduce.

 

[cvv]

Rivens are now an abandoned feature, like every other new shit[tm] they introduce.

My thoughts exactly - there are a lot of features in WF visibly lacking love and polish. The archwing part of the game is the starkest example - a great idea developed only half way.

 

[Pika-Cthulhu]

Im a degenerate who enjoyed Firefalls aerial abilities, what few there were and was hoping to see some of that in Warframe, not so much

 

[cvv]

Ugh, farming Torment is p. annoying. It's always three runs, while we don't find it in two of them, and he's gone. And 15 minutes waiting for him to be discovered again. Did about 10 runs in 2 hours, got 2 brown and 1 silver mod.

Looking at the market the price of Argon Scope is dropping like a stone, now sitting at 50 plat, I think imma just buy it, don't know what to do with my plat anyway.

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

50? buy three of them. i bought mine dirt cheap, like i felt like a robber, and got it for 150-200.

 

[cvv]

GOT IT.

 

[cvv]

Now is it worth stressing over Maiming Strike next? Is there any reliable info out there about what to expect from Melee 3.0? I only know channeling is gone but not much else.

 

[Wild Slop]

I don't even know what Melee 3.0 is supposed to feature, only that a new melee system has been talked about for so long I see it as a "released next Thursday" kind of thing.

 

[Wild Slop]

Seeing as I think myself unusually lucky when it comes to the Acolytes I thought I would give it 1 shot ....


and got an Argon Scope.


Are the odds higher now? Them selling for as llttle as 50 seems unusual to me even considering the Acolytes are still up. Also a pug in the group was quick to remind us that it wasn't as grand as it used to be and was nerfed some time ago.
I guess that's true but I don't know in what way.
