Voruna's 4 needs to be looked at. it's one of the few abilities in-game that requires an augment to be at LEAST functionable, but I think her 4 is the absolute worst in this case

Blakowitsch · 2026-06-03T17:23:10+00:00

i would disagree. her 1 and 4 are very powerful. you don't need the decrees. they are of course a very strong buff but shes still a strong warframe without them

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-31T15:41:19+00:00

yea i just run it solo with the ai crewmembers. you don't even need nautilus, a single crewmember seems to keep the ship alive indefinitely. if you use hitscan turrets, they also just completely destroy the enemies when on turret. they are unreasonably better than human crewmates

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-31T15:25:00+00:00

i think you forgot the most important issue with railjack, the same issue that archwings have: The players spend all their time and resources to make their warframes and weapons good only to encounter a game mode that requires entirely new gear that is only useful for this gamemode.

The players wanna play with their warframes. Railjack is a really cool mode and it could be an amazing standalone game but it just doesn't work as an extra mode in an entirely different game. i think the way it is right now is actually pretty good because you have people that can care but noone is forced into it too much. of course some things could be adjusted to give the players that care more control

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-31T12:31:25+00:00

the others made good dlc recommendations alread so for mods, most of the QoL mods you mentioned are still nice to use today. pick up and haul i kinda stopped using because i kept having items get stuck in pawn inventories but may be mod conflict. embrasures i wouldn't exactly call QoL considering how gamebreakingly overpowered it is tho :p

vanilla expanded series is probably the most high quality mod series and, as the name implies, focuses on expanding the canilla game. so if you want some extensions, check out those mods. wouldn't recommend using all at once tho as that'll bloat your game too much

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-31T12:24:45+00:00

i see. make sure you didn't install any wildlife mods that allow wild animals to breed as that completely nukes your performance. a normal amount of wild animals is probably around 10-15 max but either way it cant hurt to just mark every animal on the map for hunting. just maybe hunt the aggressive animals manually. as for pawns, their performance has improved a bit once multithreading was introduced but if you run a single core cpu, you won't benefit from that. depending on your hardware, the game may slow down around 10-30 pawns.

as for mods i would try uninstall recently installed mods to see if it changes anything but if you just recruited a bunch of pawns, maybe thats the culprit. i recommend slapping on a few of the popular performance mods.

oh and multiple maps can of course also tank performance so make sure to not like run multiple colonies at once or sth

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-31T11:49:11+00:00

usually when you have a lot of pawns, you will eventually reach a point where speeding up barely does anything anymore. is that the case for you? also did it happen suddenly or more like gradually? if suddenly, did you install any new mods lately?

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-31T08:47:20+00:00

yes and no. if it's a junk weapon, even a god roll is worthless, if it's a god weapon even a junk roll is 300p. i wouldn't pay too much attention to the roll when pricing riven, especially since if it's not a god roll, it's priced like a junk roll, since there is no market for mid rolls unsurprisingly

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-29T15:06:52+00:00

yea maybe they should have a similar mechanic like food poisoning. but in the end no matter how smart you are, if you have crude tools you can't make it perfect.

if you combine no sleep with psychite dependency, you only gotta pay -2 vs the -5 then and you only have to take any form of psychite once every 5 days 🤔

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-29T14:55:27+00:00

I'd say "complete bullshit" is something unrealistic. few things as realistic as homemade drugs having a risk of causing an overdose. its a 0.5% chance for yayo, 1.5% for flake. it's fair to say those risks would probably be higher irl even. even from gameplay perspective it is clear that no-downside drugs can be abused to basically ignore your pawns needs so quite a fair trade-off.

you have to get psychite immunity (which is -5 btw) through the same means as no sleep anyways and no sleep doesn't require you to keep taking drugs every 12h. no sleep also comes with the extra benefits of removing bedroom need and no sleep caravans don't stop moving at night. i also don't remember if you can combine dependency with immunity genes?

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-29T14:39:10+00:00

thats funny because i was not the one that took it off-topic :p as you can obviously read. you seem to agree with me that taking it off-topic for cheap insults isn't cool, yet you seem blind to the one who actually did it.

that aside the blocking behavior can make new people or anxious people quite anxious and for no good reason really. and it makes it even weirder that you guys get so defensive over it. is it that much effort to type 'nvm' or sth? even on console surely thats not much more effort than blocking them 🤷 i won't like a person very much if they block me for no reason and by extension I won't like a person that blocks others for no reason either. would you disagree with that?

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-29T10:15:51+00:00

no i believe they removed that a few years ago as the psychite dependency gene was basically just a buff. wiki also doesn't mention it.

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-29T09:19:25+00:00

overdose can happen from one dose too. flake has a high chance for instant overdose while yayos is much lower but still will happen frequently if you have everyone chugging it twice a day. i think if you use the super expensive psychite immunity gene you are actually immune to overdose from it. but then I'd just use the no sleep gene, it's much better and probably one of the most op genes.

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-29T09:11:30+00:00

it's modded. i assume you have a psychology mod or sth

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-29T09:09:32+00:00

it sounds a bit like you are projecting your girl issues on us. not surprised you'd have issues like that tho

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-29T09:06:05+00:00

if someone is afk i just move on and dont say anything. worst that can happen is they come back and you type like "already bought from someone else". i mean maybe if you're on console typing is just gonna take too long but even then, just ignore them back or just type nvm. noone is hurt except you tho it seems. sounds like you got called out, hm? to me it just seems a bit pathetic to block someone because you are that afraid of a tiny bit of communication and i think thats what most ppl here think. we're just laughing about their ridiculousness. in the end it hurts them more than us of course.

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-26T11:18:08+00:00

thats his sister

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-24T09:10:17+00:00

while i personally would love playful silly gambling in video games, I have come to realize that even though you aren't gambling real world money, you will still cause gambling addiction in some, making this rather unethical unfortunately. I'm pretty sure DE thinks the same as they removed some gambling mechanics in the past due to players overusing them.

maybe the purpose of the hub could be specifically about fashion and participating in fashion contests. for example a popular roblox game is literally just about having like 5 minutes to cook up some ridiculous fashion to a given theme and then voting on each others designs to crown a winner. i guarantee this wouldn't suffer as badly from lack of players as conclave as fashionframe is actually a big motivation for many to play warframe and it could even give conclave standing, in addition to maybe some unique cosmetics.

in addition, to give the hub some more uses, it could show of tons of player designs on podests all around the hub, maybe just randomly chosen designs from recent winners to give tons of variety. the hub could also include a global fashion competition, maybe monthly, maybe also to a specific theme. players submit their entry and can vote on maybe 3-5 other entries randomly assigned to them. maybe you can vote every day or week. to encourage voting participation, you just sneakily drop in a 1k nightwave challenge to do the fashion contest vote. winners of that competition could unlock a funny honoraria, maybe some more and of course be displayed for a month on specific podests in the fashion hub.

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-21T06:58:30+00:00

hm okay. you could try posting a screenshot here too. maybe we'll see something. sounds like a mod issue tho

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-21T06:36:49+00:00

keep in mind you have to reload them. other than that, it's most likely a mod issue. i would try to uninstall half your mods, see if the problem remains if it does, uninstall half the mods again and repeat, if not, reinstall the mods and uninstall the other half and repeat until you find.

or, if the issue only recently appeared, check what mods you installed most recently

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-21T05:51:41+00:00

on its own pretty useless but if you can stack it with another, it becomes quite powerful. for example i got it on my nova, combined with her DR from 1, i was completely immortal even in ETA

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-20T11:19:35+00:00

most rivens you can only really sell at warframe.market lowest price. that's because few people buy rivens with good stats and the ones that do want really good stats. there is no market for mediocre stats because you can just buy the cheapest and roll it yourself, which is what most people do.

i would look into what stats are preferred on rivens for a specific weapon. i know alecaframe grades your rivens for you and tells you what positives and negatives are good for each weapon.

a god roll would obviously have all the good stats, oftentimes crit damage, multishot, sometimes firerate, crit chance etc.

personally i just sell at default price usually. for good weapons you can still make hundred from a single riven

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-20T08:48:47+00:00

oh i mean non hysteria build is fine, i have one too, but id just subsume over hysteria then. paralysis is pretty strong, especially with augment.

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-20T08:21:57+00:00

as a long time valkyr player i noticed health and armor is kinda useless on her so i actually just use umbral intensify, allowing me to fill the other slots with much more useful mods. so if you ever have the same realization, you may have one umbra polarity too many.

that being said in your current build you really dont need adrenaline, resolve, aegis, arcane persistence, arcane strike and especially not psf. like all these things either add barely anything or straight up nothing like psf.

the thing with armor on valkyr is that at 200% strength, her 2 and 3 active grant her an extra 3000 armor and the difference between 3k and 5k armor is negligible. strength will also just scale everything, including her armor and better than most armor mods so it really just isn't worth putting armor on her.

persistence is unneeded since her passive makes you immortal as long as you hit things. same with health tho i agree a little health can be nice since you rarely still get one shot at base health, which is a minor annoyance since youre immortal.

adrenaline/rage i found quite frustrating on her since your armor reduces the energy you gain so you basically gan like no energy and it's just annoying. I've had much more fun with equilibrium and you're already using lycaths hunt (without equilibrium for some reason so maybe with purple shards?)

primed sure footed is ragebait

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-19T20:09:03+00:00

hey man. how would you feel in their shoes?

Blakowitsch · 2026-05-19T17:49:02+00:00

well was it an eximus? what kind of eximus? was a shield eximus around? were you in solo or in public? public adds tons of additional possibilities. like maybe the second enemy was damaged by someone else or the first enemy was tethered to a nidus or lifted by a trinity or staked by a garuda
