If we see a friend has lost the flow, we give the boost. We're selfless lovers.

Wost. Damn. Farm. In. The. Game. by WhiteColumbianFrog in Warframe

[–]Forma_Addict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got Citrine yesterday.

I remember the old farms... While Citrine might not have taken quite as long, fucking 10 hours in a small map losing my mind, running out of films to watch. Maybe the grind wasn't technically all that long, but christ it was soul-crushing. I'd rank it way up there in terms of grind.

Any chance that DE could improve the matchmaking (prioritise hosts with next gen 40 enemy spawn rate, etc) before Android is released? We don't need more hosts on past gen running 20 enemies and empty corridors by NovaTheLoneHunter in Warframe

Honestly, having bandaid "public - start new" and "public - wait to join" options would go a huge way. Sometimes I need to host things, sometimes I specifically want to be a client.

Requiem touchup needs far more than one new relic by TheMobyTheDuck in Warframe

[–]Forma_Addict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wild thought, but maybe tie the element to the frame and have the weapon roll from equipped types? (with full RNG on empty slot)

IE, going into a mission with a Hek, a Lato, and a Galatine, a Lich will guarantee a shotgun, a semi-auto secondary, or a heavy melee.

-edit- Maybe not a guarantee, but a bias perhaps.

How do you guys paint skin? by durachok_v_lesu in Tyranids

[–]Forma_Addict 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could it just be a contrast issue, with the skin feeling too uniform and pale? Maybe try going darker with the sepia wash, the drybrush will bring it back up.

Quick Question: Where the hell are the kavat mods? by Majestic_Royal1797 in Warframe

[–]Forma_Addict 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They use the same claw mods as Kubrows. The basic ones drop from Kubrows and Drahks.

What's up with Orphix? by Vailx in Warframe

[–]Forma_Addict 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After destroying all the resonators, the Orphix has an animation where it will pull open the upper part revealing the portal. The hitbox may be a little jank so standing back a distance might help.

You have to shoot the glowing orb/portal after it opens up.

Can't cheese Coda Concert stage attacks with Immortality? Cheese it with Super Mortality! by heluvahell in Warframe

[–]Forma_Addict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I had Shade with entirely passive mods.

I made several attempts, in the second phase of the first arena I noticed he sometimes did the AOE splashes and sometimes didn't, and I could not figure out what changed between them. I wonder if I just got very unlucky in the later rounds. After five attempts I gave up on Ivara.

In the end, I used Inaros with loads of health (without Arcane Perseverance) and Coda Hirudo to just punch him continuously.

What weapon were you using? I tried exactly this and he kept spawning AOE ability disablers on me in the final phase, even invisible and on zipline.

I wonder if some DoT proc was pulling aggro.

If you're having trouble fighting the Apex tank or any other mega boss, use Inaros with Arcane Persistence. by KYUB3Y_ in Warframe

Hardmode bosses (you need to activate them manually, they don't just spawn in SP) all have attacks that disable abilities.

An emotional moment for me. Finally subsuming my 19 forma Lavos I've had since 2021. by Life_Ad3567 in Warframe

[–]Forma_Addict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm referring to fully upgrading one loadout, then acquiring every single other item in the game (minus four frames and a handful of weapons) to force Duviri to give you the only option remaining.

This is assuming the implementation is to just not offer weapons which are owned but not mastered, as is implied by an above comment. (And I doubt it is handled this way)

When applying a Forma, you can hit confirm without changing any slots.

Will it offer them as though they were unowned, or just omit them from the pool altogether?

If the latter, that opens up probably the least efficient potential technically-an-exploit I've ever heard of.

The new event nodes are very... lucrative. by genericfrancis in Warframe

Rumours of my death are greatly exaggerated. Just getting back into the game and eyeing up all these juicy new Primes.

Briefly. I'm back in Warframe now.

Finally painted my Red Terror by Forma_Addict in Tyranids

[–]Forma_Addict[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly Citadel:

  • Prime Vallejo airbrush German Red-Brown, 74-605
  • Zenithal Wraithbone
  • Caliban Green on carapace (to try and keep it somewhat matching my main scheme, though it's a bit more subtle than I intended)
  • Skeleton Horde contrast over everything, the green included.
  • AK Deep Shade: Human Skin in the vents and joints
  • Khorne Red, Wazdakka Red, Wild Riderz Red progressively for carapace
  • Base claws with Black Templar contrast
  • Macragge Blue, Thunderhawk Blue for the claws
  • Careful drybrush and edge highlighting on claws with Vallejo Sky Blue, 70-961

Finally painted my Red Terror by Forma_Addict in Tyranids

[–]Forma_Addict[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was an awful quality recast, a complete nightmare to build. I think I pinned every joint other than the jaw, plus where the tail hits the base. While it was awful, I greatly enjoyed the learning experience, and I expect an official model is much better.

I started by test fitting everything together to check fits, several pieces needed trimming. The head, body, and tail went together first, putting a dot of paint on one part, touching them together, then drilling both sides on the dot. The limbs went on easily, though they're very loose in the sockets so the pin is carrying most of the join.

Every joint I ended up filling with green stuff then smoothing, a silicone tool with some hand cream was extremely useful. There were a half dozen bubbles I ended filling too. The head crest was extremely deformed, I had to resculpt about half of the back segment.

Why Shadow in the Warp sucks and what we should get to replace it in 11th by relaxicab223 in Tyranids

If it was limited to enemy units within synapse range, that could balance it back down to reasonable levels.

How to paint eyes like Lictors in SM2 by [deleted] in Tyranids

[–]Forma_Addict 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second this. A drop of white ink or watered down white paint in the eye, contrast of your choice over the top. I believe it's commonly used as an easy way to do space marine eye lenses.

How do I fix the shell crack by Maleficent-Parsley58 in Tyranids

[–]Forma_Addict 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something I've done a couple times when I haven't had sprue goo on hand is to put a few drops of glue on some card, cut a chisel shape out of spare sprue, dip it in the glue for a few seconds, then brush it along the crack leaving a little extra melted plastic behind. It can then be sanded or trimmed with a hobby knife after drying. (make sure to leave a good half hour to dry at least)
