I’m half-way through Sedna right now. I have just 1 Warframe (though I did start building Limbo last night when I remembered I did that quest) and it, a long with my best weapons, are maxed out and either at mod capacity or damn near (still need endo for a few). MR5.
I have a railjack, I unlocked the Operator, and I have so many resources and credits. But everything is starting to take forever to kill and hurts me so much. When I did the whole Drifter quest thing, I choose everything I already used but it was so much stronger. The Warframe had way more shield and health even though I have Redirection and Vitality maxed out on it. The Boltor had a super high ROF compared to what mine has and did way more damage.
How the hell do I get that kind of power on my normal stuff? I know about Forma but I haven’t even seen some of the mods for the weapons I have I’ve seen suggested for maximum damage, so I’m just hanging onto those until it makes sense to use them. Is that really the only way to get stronger?
Ah so that’s where I can use him. Unless a quest told me to change, I haven’t been using him at all. Is there another part like the Drifter side quest? As a Souls fan, that was hella fun.
The main uses for Operator/Drifter are for certain bosses, utility and for killing special enemies that have two phases like Vomvalysts and Thrax. The most useful focus school for new players would be Zenurik. You want to unlock Wellspring which lets you create a marked zone by pressing
1(assuming you’re on PC) and standing inside it with your warframe will give you an energy regen buff. There are some other quests that do make use of your operator/drifter too, and a game mode focused around playing as the Drifter (Duviri: Experience - feels very different from base warframe though and controls could be a little less clunky).If you didn’t pick Zenurik as a starting school, you can find ‘Zenurik’ Focus Lenses them as a potential reward in Cetus Bounties at Konzu. (These reward tables rotate so they won’t always be available). They can be installed on any piece of equipment that is rank 30 by going to Arsenal > [pick any piece of equipment that is rank 30] Upgrade > Actions (at the bottom of your screen) > Focus Lens. This will convert a portion of affinity gained to Focus which can then be used to unlock a new Focus school once you have 50k points accumulated within the respecitve school. Warframe is unfortunately a little convoluted, you want to make sure you’re using an Zenurik lens if you’re trying to unlock that Focus school. Just play the game and you will gain standing passively.
To change your focus school, Esc > Equipment > Operator > Focus > Pick a school to swap to/unlock if you have enough points in the specific school you want. *You might be able to convert Eidolon Shards as an alternative to farming focus but this is later progression wise, I think you might still need to go through initially unlocking a specific school using it’s respective lens.
*I’m mostly going off memory, if you don’t have access to operator yet by pressing ‘5’, it’s currently only enabled for quest progression. It becomes useable in game after completing ‘The Second Dream’.
@Dystopia @Kolanaki My first was Naramon. Its infinite combo allowed me to milk mods like gladiator or blood rush. Wellspring is good but not nearly as good as hardend wellspring for channeled abilities to snapshot
You’re talking about Duviri right? If you’re using melee on drifter it has to be there. Yeah, it’s a whole area that’s mostly independent from the main game. You can get a lot of different upgrades from Duviri.
