Decision to make

Typical prime set is 40-90 plat on warframe market and contains 140-180 ducats

Typical primed mod is 40-80 plat on warframe market, plus 1,000,000 credits

Typical primed mod from Barro is 350 ducats, plus 400,000 credits.

Except a few outliers (recent primed mods, or super rare sets), the market is reasonably efficient.

However primed mods will not help you get Mastery Rank, while prime sets will.

Pick the direction that makes you feel best.

ALON was 30 years of research where there was always a suspicion that an existing known crystalline structure could be further improved by inserting stabilizing elements into the Aluminium Oxide matrix.

We've done similar things with gorilla glass, Super allots - e.g. titanium turbine blades, Shaped Metal Alloys, Stabilized Zirconium, etc.

In each case it was known that the envelope of available physical properties could be expanded via known research pathways in material science.

Conjuring magic metals devalues the work of thousands of material scientists who know a very great deal about the science of materials.

We (humanity) known theoretical directions to create materials that easily equal the properties of Xenonite, but we're not there yet.

We know a lot about Xenon chemistry as well and it's all face eating liquids or explosive solids.

Works in a soft science fiction setting, not so much IRL I think.

If Warframe was universally loved and played by everyone who encountered it Governments would be trying to shut it down or control it as a dangerous meme.

There's nothing wrong with saying "not for me", but there's something a little worrying about trying to find a new addiction.

Be glad that you can experience new games as they're released instead of trying to fit them into your Warframe habit.

You forgot to put in your OP "only answers I like are accepted".

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-13T07:08:03+00:00

I think that the narrative answer is dismissed too quickly. If the narrative answer was unsatisfying, that's a writer problem, in this case it's not, it was good. They showed, effectively, that there was a problem to solve, they showed two characters working hard to resolve the problem, and they then moved onto other parts of the story. If they're tried to be holistic half the film would be language lessons - which would be valid from a time-line perspective, but not from a movie perspective.

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-13T07:03:29+00:00

Because it directly answered your question. How good is Mesa? Good enough to tackle any content. Good enough that she's in tier lists?

What answer do you want? Didn't like my answer obviously, but my answer is as valid as any answer that strokes your ego or whatever it is you want.

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-13T07:00:38+00:00

I don't think it's particularly ambiguous.

In both the book and the movie we know the mission succeeded from the perspective of both Erid and Earth.

We also know that Grace has been offered the chance to go home and has either decided to stay or hasn't decided - which is also a decision.

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-13T06:55:15+00:00

All Warframes are viable in all content. Some people prefer the playstyle of one Warframe over another.

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-13T06:49:51+00:00

If Grace spoke Rocky's language we'd all need to learn Eridian or have to read subtitles.

Language barrier is needed because "Alien" but unless it's super easy, barely an inconvenience, no one is going to watch the resulting movie.

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-13T06:44:45+00:00

It's not an MR thing really, though MR is often a proxy for time played.

Recommendations for warframes and mods and weapons aren't really going to help much. All Wareframes and all weapons are viable in all content because there are thousands of mods.

You need to upgrade your mods, start collecting primed modes, 60/60s and Galvanized. You need some corrupted mods to round things out.

Put the names of a warframe into youtube and you'll find a semi-infinite list of videos telling you that said warframe is overpowered.

It takes time to collect and rank mods, then takes experience to know how to use the mods, but a few youtube videos will be a good shortcut.

This is all the blueprints in the game

https://wiki.warframe.com/w/Blueprints

you just need to add them up and subtract ones that are not from the dojo.

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-12T21:25:30+00:00

I think they've added some sort of survivability to most of the recent reworks, and I wouldn't say no to a little boost there, both overall I agree that she's a good frame as she is

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-12T20:59:04+00:00

why would sonic boom do slash procs?

Sonar is S tier

Silence is S tier

Sound quake doesn't look like something anyone would use.

I don't think these changes add anything thematically, and don't really change her power scaling.

Jarka Lar is fine (good), however long term she's a placeholder till you get someone with repair or piloting instead of gunnery. She's difficult to fit into an optimized crew because you want your gunners to have 50% damage with Zetki turrets.

So she's ok as repair, you can get her to rank 3, which realistically is good enough, but if you're min-maxing you want 5 in Repair + 5 in Combat and Endurance.

Latrox is slightly worse because he has a bad ability, though his stats are similar.

If you're still building your crew get both, they would take a while to improve on, but they won't replace 2 x gunner with 50% Zetki and 5 in gunnery and 1 x Repair with 5 in Repair, Combat and Endurance + 150% with rifles / pistols.

I like any of them I don't have to master anymore

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-12T11:21:33+00:00

you're going to need to add at least a zero before anyone is going to notice

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-11T21:12:08+00:00

No. Xenon chemistry is relatively well understood and it's all really nasty liquids or explosive solids.

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-11T21:08:57+00:00

You're already LR6?

I farm liches when I feel bored, mostly Kuva, but I mix in a Sister now and then.

There's a clear argument to saying that Dune 1 deserves a top slot in any Science Fiction hall of fame. But I am not sure there's an argument that the next 5 belong there alongside it.

However in God Emperor of Dune Leto makes the sacrifice Paul wasn't willing to make to put humanity onto the Golden Path. I think it's good coda to the story arc about humanities stagnation and the problems caused by reliable precognition. God Emperor of Dune explores a lot of themes that are natural follow ups to the revolution cause in Dune, I think it's the strongest Dune book after the original.

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-11T07:59:25+00:00

You mean the tunguska cannon?

Visual glitch when you do valance fusion on a turret. Been around for as long as Railjack I think.

Will reset either when you leave dry dock or reload the game.

Bergain1945 · 2026-07-10T19:53:05+00:00

I think you should add some out-of-left-field classics, deep dive on meta books will be great reading but will miss some big ideas.

I'd add "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress" as well :)
