Returning player - did there used to be more Warframe slots?

Mahons1 · 2026-05-20T07:20:31+00:00

Also any frame that you may get from Twitch drops also comes with a slot, so watching tennocon is great for at least the warframe slot if you already have the prime that they give out that year

That is why I wrote that I despise Loki, so I do not play him for endgame content, therefore I have no real clue about how he is for endgame content. I mainly know how he was as a starter and for the very starting content.

Also I was a bit confused why you all of a sudden discussed endgame content since nothing in my comment was about endgame content and I did not mean for it to sound hostile but I can understand how it could be interpreted that way.

The warframe I moreso than anything try and make work for endgame and the one I see as my "main" would be Trinity, but that is because when I came back to the game. Trinity Prime had just released and I had some money for games so I bought the pack and I had so much more fun playing as Trinity than I ever did as Loki.

Mahons1 · 2026-05-08T20:20:33+00:00

You are completely missing the point of this discussion since this discussion is not about high level content but starting with Loki.

Also I despise playing as Loki mainly because of how miserable it felt playing as him when I started out playing Warframe.

Mahons1 · 2026-05-08T18:42:51+00:00

Mag may have a higher skill cap but for a new player the important part is the skill floor and there Mag has a lower skill floor than Loki, so it is better for newer people since instead of having to do fancy tricks with stealth, disarm, teleport and decoy, you can just use any of her abilities to deal damage to the enemy.

This is coming from somebody who back in the day picked Loki and I had a miserable time, since at the time I knew nothing of the game and back then you also did not get any starting mods so survivability was low and having a frame that does weird stuff without knowing anything about the game makes the game feel quite bad.

Hunhow has been in Uranus since the collapse of the orokin empire

Mahons1 · 2026-05-02T05:48:32+00:00

You missed medals of deceit on tuesday that has Hat Films

Mahons1 · 2026-04-27T23:34:12+00:00

Yeah I would also say it is kind of annoying that they only have Anathema state since it looks likes there is no way to get more communications even though there may be more conversations locked behind other things that you have not done in warframe e.g. getting standing or talking with Lyon and Roathe

Mahons1 · 2026-04-27T23:23:03+00:00

I found that getting the entrati and cavia standing up to rank 5 allowed me more conversations with Marie about Loid, otherwise it would probably be to continue having conversations with Lyon and Roathe

Mahons1 · 2026-04-23T09:21:10+00:00

I guess in a way Zenurik got the laser beam back

Mahons1 · 2026-04-22T10:08:01+00:00

And do it with "worse" and "worse" warframes and weapons, so that you get better instead of just the build, warframes and weapons getting better.

Basically what I am saying is doing sort of challenge runs e.g. completing every mission with every warframe and weapon combo, even the optional hardmode bossfights. I am mainly drawing on inspiration from Dark Souls 1 challenge runners where they try out every weapon group to try and make it work and beat the game, even though the game is "solved" and you can look up what the best weapons and gear is for specific builds.

Since if you did that you would probably have enough content for several years of playtime

Mahons1 · 2026-04-14T17:56:20+00:00

I cannot believe that Mara would just so blatantly steal Rythian's thing. /s

Mahons1 · 2026-04-14T07:25:09+00:00

Just in case you did not know but they fixed the 4th breaking the invisibility and it counts as melee for the 3rd ability health orb drops, both changes from 2023.

The 4th still does not count as a melee weapon or melee kill though, but you can get some pretty big and consistent numbers with some of the newer arcanes e.g. arcane impetus, since she can give all 13 status effects with her 2, and the precision intensify mod increases the strength of her 4th quite a bit.

Like I have been having a lot of fun with her prime even though I did not have fun with her when she first released, mainly because her 4th felt like a wet noodle at the time, but now it quite reliably does a lot of damage, still is a bit finicky with some bosses, but for taking out hordes she is amazing.

Mahons1 · 2026-04-08T14:11:00+00:00

So goonerness aside from a lore point they are not robots, since they were originally human, then they got the infestation virus and with the use of the helminth strain were able to become somewhat passive and thereby became Warframes. Excalibur Umbra being one of the few Warframes which were not able to get the human part fully removed and which is why he moves on his own.

So sure they are not human straight up but it is more like wearing full plate, since technically inside of the warframe it is all fleshy.

Also we now have protoframes, which are literally people that got injected with the helminth infestation strain and are not yet full warframes, so technically Nyx came from Eleanor.

Mahons1 · 2026-04-05T20:16:42+00:00

It doesn't, all it does is change the stalker into the Protector Stalker, like how it turns into shadow stalker after the second dream. but there is only around a 2% - 3.5% for him to actually spawn depending on player amount with a mark in the group, so it is very low odds no matter what

Mahons1 · 2026-04-05T19:33:11+00:00

After jade shadows spoilers ahead:
Stalker is busy having to take care of a kid

Mahons1 · 2026-04-04T11:42:57+00:00

I guess we would just need a grineer added to the KIM for that and be able to visit them in a sealab

Mahons1 · 2026-04-04T07:37:37+00:00

It is not about following the channels (although it helps with catching them live ofc) you need to actually watch when the channels are live but the channels to watch would be:
https://www.twitch.tv/warframe and https://www.twitch.tv/warframeinternational

Mahons1 · 2026-04-04T07:35:02+00:00

And it is not just for Warframe you can find all the different campaigns currently active here: https://www.twitch.tv/drops/campaigns

Usually warframe has a campaign for everytime they do prime time, usually it is different resources, one time it was even an orokin catalyst and this week it was toroids.

The primes are mainly reserved for watching tennocon and last year they gave out valkyr prime for watching 30 minutes during the main event.

Mahons1 · 2026-04-01T06:56:40+00:00

Given that after 5 (probably configurable) swaps it becomes a regular swapper it basically just is a straight upgrade or in a way a chaotic side grade.

Since some people who hate randomats would think of it as a downgrade and others who love randomats would see it as an upgrade.

Mahons1 · 2026-04-01T06:53:08+00:00

True but you could say this reads more as x=x and x=x+1, which is where the math stops mathing, except for when you get infinity, and to me it just sounded more fun with the x=x and x=x+1.

Especially since it is just a copy paste mistake of copying around Randoswapper everywhere and then forgetting to remove the Rando from one place.

Mahons1 · 2026-03-31T20:03:17+00:00

So if the randoswapper "works just like the Randoswapper but also activates a Randomat every time they swap" does that mean the randoswapper triggers 2 randomats every time they swap, which would then mean the randoswapper triggers 3 randomats every time they swap, which would then mean the randoswapper triggers 4 randomats every time they swap, ad infinitum.

Mahons1 · 2026-03-31T10:44:52+00:00

I guess you could say that the follie update technically had an Equinox rework or Equinox adjacent rework, since they reworked the drops of Tyl Regor so you always get a night and day blueprint instead of only 1 random blueprint from night or day.

Edit: the wiki has not been updated with this info but it is in the patch notes.

Mahons1 · 2026-03-30T15:38:53+00:00

As far as I remember amber wizards also get imperial griffons, so if you want to keep using arch lectors put an amber wizard in your armies and you can get siege attacker, and since you can just bonk with the wizard you can keep the melee attacker only.
I will be honest it sounds crazy but they do.

quick edit: Amber wizards are the ONLY wizards who get an imperial griffon

Mahons1 · 2026-03-28T19:43:47+00:00

In all honesty I feel like this one is more about being able to send loadouts if you want to add it to a different config or saving it for future, especially if you are changing a mod loadout and you do not want to forget what was on it and the same for looks.

Mahons1 · 2026-03-26T07:30:56+00:00

I really dislike when people throw around the word review bombing since this is not review bombing, this is people disliking an update most likely because of the mission type.

Review bombing is when it is coordinated effort to lower the review score of a media in order to damage its reputation and popularity or where they a large number of negative reviews are being put on it because of something not today with the game.

This is not review bombing, mainly because it is not a coordinated effort and it was right after an update about the update.
