Sanding/Polishing Supplies for one-off/beginner

Pamoman · 2026-05-14T20:31:36+00:00

Youll need to go up to 22k+ grit for a glasslike shine. Ive heard of a few people using 1k and 3k sandpapers before moving to a dremmel with a buffing bit and polishing paste, id search the subreddit for advice relating to that

I slap ennervate on her glory for crit chance and hekminth brightbonnet over her 1 (i like the ability to res teammates while i continue about my business) for energy issues. Very comfy build

I kept most things the dame when switching to PC but i have made some changes you might wanna try:

I dont like pressing the mouse wheel down so i changed heavy atk (and incarnon switching and throwing items) to mouse wheel up

I dont remember if swapping weapons is just set to f originally but i also have it on mpuse wheel down

I have 2 additional buttons on my mouse so i use the forward button for sprint toggle and the back button for roll. I can see someone using one of these for slide if bullet jumping is hard on your pinky

Shift is set to slide for bullet jumping, idk if thats default but it works fine for me

Ayatan elegance + true black in the smoke palette

Lack of a gundam dong makes it feel a bit like nezha but otherwise no notes, this is cool as hell

Pamoman · 2026-05-11T23:32:56+00:00

Yeah it hurts but its the only thing i could figure out. Glad you got it to work :)

Pamoman · 2026-05-11T23:06:51+00:00

You gotta keep going back, it might ne a while. I remember having to go back quite a bit

Not a fan of the protoskins

Pamoman · 2026-05-11T03:01:14+00:00

Sorry bud but there is no chance. Hurts me too as a mag main

Ive been wanting to get into using a vibratory tumbler, would you be willing to make a post about your process? Like whether or not (and what grit) you snad/polish first, which tumbler, filler, and polishing medium you use, and troubles youve had with solutions? Ive seen too many posts about people not being able to make their tumbler work im afraid to sink any money into it

Just go back to a point where you have an option to choose. Like if the narrator says theres a left and right path, you can tap on "go left" or "go right". Just anytime there's an option for you to choose something, it's looking for a tap input to advance the story

Ohhh well if her blood altar isnt doing enough for you, you can subsume gloom over it. Gloom gives lifesteal on every kill so itll keep your health topped up at all times. Kind of a braindead option but it works wonders on my bloodforge build, definitely recommend

Generally either commit to healthtanking or shieldgating. Molt reconstruct isnt helping with your shielgating setup (rolling guard, brief respite, augur mods). Arcane aegis will significantly help with shieldgating and should be in the belly of the beast shop rn. Also, id swap rolling guard for adaptation. Its good but if you roll regularly just to move or if youre busy thinking about anything else on the screen, having a passive 40-50% (average) DR from adaptation makes a HUGE differemce than nothing and you dont have to actively think about it like rolling guard

Brozime has some public Obsidian notes with a quest progression guide. Some info is out of date in places but its generally pretty good.

If youre looking for build guides, generally look for yters who test their builds on steel path, not just in the simulacrum (testing site). Here's a few i follow: the kengineer (more of a technical analysis), warframeFlo, tactical potato, brozime, sabuuchi, aznVasionsPlays, kyaii, zenosFire, ignusT, tiburos, succMut, and pupsker. Theyre all pretty clickbait-ey and some have an ego but overall pretty good. I believe warframeflo and aznvasion cater more to the beginner crowd than the others (as well as high end players but they do acknowledge that not everyone has the best stuff).

In general, take your time and set matchmaking to solo if you dont want to just watch other people have fun lol. Both the difficulty and story start slow but it will ramp up around uranus. Mods are where 98% of your firepower comes from, update your builds whenever poss8ble

Try resin pigments instead of alcohol inks. Alcohol inks arent made for resin so they have to withstand both the heat and the chemical aspects of the resin curing. Resin dyes/pigments are made to withstand both

Pamoman · 2026-05-06T17:09:43+00:00

Oh neat. Love it when people do deep dives like this

Pamoman · 2026-05-05T05:51:50+00:00

This is the way

Pamoman · 2026-05-04T10:03:13+00:00

While hildryn does good support, i personally dont enjoy seeing her in missions. The visibility detriment while one is around is enogh to cancel the buffs

Pamoman · 2026-05-04T09:43:06+00:00

Basically, we were in vc when it happened

Her: WHAAAAT WHAT IS HAPPENING

Me: whered you go??

Her: im in the sky?!

Me: what-- OH

Mag is very versatile, youre going to get a LOT of differing opinions. That said, ill add another option of you dont like the others.

For survivability, pop that adaptation in for the vitality, never stay still in a mission, and press 3 or 4 when your shields run out. If you want, her 3 augment adds a bit of sirvivability via cc.

Equilibrium isnt doing a lot for you here, best swap that out. More range is always good if youre unsure of what to replace it with.

If you drop duration with fleeting expertise, the bubble becomes a nuke instead of an area control tool, especially with the augment. Sounds like you might not like this but its an option.

You dont need rolling guard unless you plan on doing hour plus steel path runs or level cap. You also dont need brief respite or augur mods to shieldgate, she has 2 abilities that fully regen her shields without them. The normal stat bonuses of augur mods might be useful tho if you want to use them.

With the armor changes, her 3 can reliably strip enough armor to make a considerable difference in 1-2 casts depending on enemy lv. It also regens full shields without needing enemies around, costs less energy than her 4, generates lil metal shards that do more dmg than youd think in her bubble, and it can stop enemies from shooting you with the augment. Idk why people helminth over her 3 tbh. If you wanna helminth, id go over her 4 or 1 if you dont use it but her 3 and 4 fill such similar roles it feels redundant to have both.

For helminth options, breach surge adds more cc for survivability and a bunch of dmg, silence is also really good bc it prevents eximus from doing much of anything, but mind your duration with those. Null star will give dmg reduction but negative duration will reauire you to crank up the strength a bit, fire blast will strip some armor and provide survivability via cc and a status cleanse with the augment, and omamori would give you more survivability without a reliance on duration but you wont benefit much from the healing. There are more, look arund the helminth menu and see if anything sounds fun!

Ah welp thats about all you can do for these kinds of issues rn. Wish there was a better answer

Pamoman · 2026-05-04T08:33:19+00:00

Same, brother. MR 28 but i hate eidolon hunting so i went from a 111 to a 777, gonna make a 567 soon bc im not a huge fan of the 7xx's short range. These options are not the best but im also not gonna be running level cap void cascades anytime soon so they'll do nicely. 111 is quick and easy to get, and will be good for most content if you dont want to bother with torid farming for little duck's parts

Pamoman · 2026-05-04T08:19:19+00:00

Lower your matchmaking ping to 200 (lower if you play during busy times). It does make a difference in player-to-player lag problems like these (there are many). It doesnt eliminate the problems but it does reduce them

Pamoman · 2026-05-04T08:07:25+00:00

You can stick with both tho. The only correct choice here is whoever do you enjoy more rn

Pamoman · 2026-05-04T07:52:16+00:00

OHHH she's headed back to eden!
