====== Warframe ====== Warframe is a looter-shooter multiplayer online game where you're a space ninja. ===== Tips ===== ==== Weapons ==== Check overframe.gg for weapon stats and meta. === leveling === You don't get more affinity if you level the weapon more than once, unless you use the Focus system. After ranking something to level 30 there are 4 things you can do with it: - You enjoy the weapon, and thus you keep it in your inventory. - Once you unlock the Focus system, you can earn mastery by way of Focus Points. - The weapon can be used in the creation of another weapon, and you are not interested in keeping it. - Use it as a component of the other weapon, if you need it. - The weapon has no other uses and you hate it. - Sell the thing. It's not going to be used, and it isn't worth anything to you. It's just taking up space in your inventory. - Exceptions to #3: - Weapons that can only be obtained __once__ from quests and the like. While DE may let you rebuild these weapons at some point, currently, you can only acquire them once from a mission/login reward. You might want to hold on to them. - Prime Weapons that are vaulted. You likely want to hold onto them because you won't be able to get them for a long time. Still, if you already have the mastery from the weapons and you don't ever use them, it's a fairly small loss trashing them. It's just one that you might regret down the line. ==== Defense missions ==== - If you defend an Operative, they can be one shot by some Exilus enemies at approximately Round 25, so it's best to do 24 rounds (8x3) and extract for minimised risk. ==== Junctions ==== === Mars === **Cephalon fragments** are obtained using a codex scanner. The scanner can be built through the foundry then selected in game by holding Q and clicking it. The easiest way to find these is the repeatable **Ara mission** on mars. Most of the time they are in plain sight and located near the end of the map, you can backtrack if you didn't find one.[(https://gamescrack.org/warframe/cephalon-fragments-on-mars)] ===== Buy platinum ===== Best value deals for platinum[(via [[https://www.reddit.com/r/Warframe/comments/g4svjb/pc_breaking_down_the_best_bang_for_your_buck_when/|reddit.com/r/Warframe]], 4/2020)]: - Any 75% off deal (value scales with cost) - Any 50% off deal (value scales with cost) - Middle Prime Access package - Top Prime Access package - The $200 plat package w/ 20% off coupon ===== Daily ===== ⚠ Note: Some tasks may overlap or vary in importance depending on individual preferences and priorities. ==== Daily Tasks ==== * Complete daily Sortie * Maximize daily syndicate gains (through playing or farming medallions) * Do Kuva Lich hunts for Requiem Relics * Open Relics for prime gear and ducats for [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Baro_Ki%27Teer|Baro Ki'Teer]] * Craft Forma, Fieldron, Detonite Injector, Mutagen Mass * Do Steel Path Incursions for Steel Path essence (visit [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Teshin|Teshin]] to buy Kuva, Adapters, etc.) * Rotate between different farms to avoid getting bored (e.g. syndicate, animal capturing/fishing) * Visit the standard and Steel Path circuit in [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Duviri|Duviri]] * Check the Duviri merchant for daily and weekly arcanes (if you have Rank 9 Intrinsic) ==== Weekly Tasks ==== * Visit [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Baro_Ki%27Teer|Baro Ki'Teer]] (biweekly) * Buy Riven mods/Kuva from [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Palladino|Palladino]] * Buy Kuva from [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Archimedean_Yonta|Archimedean Yonta]] * Complete [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Maroo%27s_Treasure_Hunt|Maroo's Treasure Hunt]] * Advance in [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Nightwave|Nightwave]] for rewards (mods, weapons, Nitain Extract) and check weekly offerings for important mods * Do [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Archon_Hunts|Archon Hunts]] and [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Kahl%27s_Missions|Kahl Missions]] for shards ===== Neutral Factions (farm their standing) ===== * Cetus: Ostron, The Quills * Fortuna: Solaris United, Ventkids, Vox Solaris * Necralisk: Entrati, Necraloid * Chrysalith: The Holdfasts * Miscellaneous: [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Cephalon_Simaris|Cephalon Simaris]], [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Conclave|Conclave]] (XD) ==== Other Tasks ==== * Do [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Eidolon|Eidolon Hunts]] for Arcanes * Farm focus school standing * Run [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Arbitration|Arbitrations]] for mods, arcanes, and Vitus Essence * Defeat your Kuva Lich or Sister of Parvos for Kuva and Tenet weapons * Advance in [[https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Helminth|Helminth]], which is a system that allows you to customize your warframes with abilities from other warframes AND add Archon Shards to your warframes * Farm all kinds of gear to advance in mastery rank (frames, companions, weapons) * Research and farm for any interesting S/A tier weapons, frames, etc. as defined by [[https://overframe.gg/|Overframe]] (do your own research as well) * Visit [[https://warframe.market|warframe.market]] and create a sale list to get platinum for slots and potatoes * Use [[https://alecaframe.com/|AlecaFrame]] or [[https://wfinfo.warframestat.us/|WFInfo]] to determine which prime parts to sell for plat or ducats * Try to broaden the spectrum of frames you play for specific missions and copy builds for endurance runs from YouTubers like [[https://www.youtube.com/c/KnightmareFrame|KnightmareFrame]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/c/Aznvasions|Aznvasions]] * Check out [[https://thegamer.com/|thegamer.com]] for in-depth explanation guides and Warframe infographics made by u/Joewoof for progression guide and mechanics explanation ==== Optional Tasks ==== * Daily Riven challenges, Kavat scans, ESO leveling, and parts chasing (prime or normal) * Invasions for resources and weapon parts * Toroid and Isolation runs for specific resources and standing with relevant factions * Profit-Taker Orb runs (depending ===== Companion sites ===== * [[https://warframe.market/|Warframe.market]] – sell your inventory for plat to other players. * [[https://overframe.gg/|Overframe]] – builds and [[https://overframe.gg/tier-list/|tier lists]] for your arsenal. * [[https://warframestreams.lol/|Warframe Streams]]
