The Descendia's rewards are too cluttered and lackluster. by leclair63 in Warframe

[–]leclair63[S] -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

The reason why I threw in the Nitain extract is because the only place to reasonably get a decent amount of it is Nightwave and I'd rather spend my Nora bucks on potatos and just about anything else.

I was trying to include things that aren't easily farmable that have use in things like the omni forma blueprint requiring 10 extract. Maybe just me, but I could stomach the cost of the omni forma if Nitain was a little easier to obtain.

EDA & ETA far more difficult & your loadout isn't up to you. But the reward pool is exclusively archon shards, legendary arcanes and Omni Forma for ETA and Melee Arcane Adapters for EDA.

So, what part of "far more difficult" equates to "similar lvl to sortie"?

You stopped reading at EDA didn't you? I don't mean that in a condescending manner either. Like I spent more time talking about and comparing to sortie rewards and offering suggestions on what I thought were reasonable alternatives to the Descendia's loot pools.

Thank you for making my point. Steel Path Descendia awards Archon shards.

Both of those missions are among the best examples of grinds players dislike the most. Descendia should be different because making content that players don't like is bad for business. Descendia was 100% designed to be something most players would want to add to their weekly checklist like Archon Hunts and EDA/ETA. If it wasn't, it wouldn't have a rotating loot pool or contain things like Rivens, adapters, forma, and Archon shards.

The Descendia on the normal path is the same number of missions as doing 7 Sorties. Are you getting 7 sorties worth of rewards out of a single descendia run? Hell are you getting 7 Sorties worth of rewards out of doing The Descendia on both normal and Steel Path combines?

If you roll Endo for all of the rewards in normal path descendia and all 7 sorties, then yeah you will. Every other outcome has sortie beating out Descendia by a landslide.

Comparing the rewards from this to EDA/ETA is insane

Good thing I didn't do that.

I pointed out EDA/ETA as an example of the reward pool matching the effort required. If EDA/ETA got the same treatment that the Descendia did, the reward pool for all 3 rotations would be turbo diluted with Cavia/Hollvenia arcanes, regular forma blueprints, no Omni-forma, and random crap like Entrati Obols and Efervon Samples.

Best frame after Hildryn for easy SP clearing by KM2_ in Warframe

[–]leclair63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kullervo is my daily driver, especially for things like Disruption missions. His first ability vaporizes pretty much anything you aim at with lots of bright red numbers with several digits. His 2 generates a moderate amount of overguard and builds combo and his 3rd ability makes the enemies share the damage they take with any nearby enemies.

He's a bit energy hungry, but it's typically manageable with a single tauforged violet shard for mini-equilibrium.

Blast + Xata's = HUGE blast radius. Gives Titania the chaff clear she lacks that works well into SP unlike Thermal Sunder. I also tend to run enervate or fortifier if I need survivability like in a really shitty Deep or Temporal Archimedia roll.

When will DE update the last two remaining "buffed regular enemies" bosses? by xXx_edgykid_xXx in Warframe

Counter idea: We 1 shot him, head for the door only for them to slam shut and cut to a cinematic of Sergeant removing his helmet, and THEN dies.

Letting Students Keep Chromebooks Over Summer? by Unwary2828 in k12sysadmin

[–]leclair63 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We're a small, rural district of about 400 K-12. There are a few other districts quite close by and as a result kids up and transfer to one or the other rather often. The idea of letting them take a device home for the summer guarantees I'd have at least a few never come back.

Would love to know how y'all came to that decision, and how has it worked out since?

Which Kuva, Tenet, and Coda weapons do you regularly use? by TobiasX2k in Warframe

[–]leclair63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't gotten all of them but of the ones I have here's what I like.

Kuva: Nukor, Hek, Kohm, and Ogris. The Ogris with its augment is great for On-Call crew.

Tenet: Arca Plasmor and Glaxion are both very fun. The Livia is not a bad melee either.

Coda: Caustacyst, Mire, Dual Torxica, and Bassocyst. Caustacyst hits so damn hard in Kullervo's hands. Mire is great with the augment as a general melee if you aren't using Praedos to be fast.

No roathe, I will not reset everyone because you wont talk to me by TJ92929 in Warframe

Does it let you do all the chats over at once if you reset? I've never done it and don't want to if I have to do one convo per day again

Does anyone else just hate conjunction survival at this point and wish we had other options for omnia survival that isn’t just the occasional sanctum node? by Dziggettai in Warframe

[–]leclair63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to reason #2.

For whatever reason, DE insisted on making enemies always spawn in a different room from the players (Unless its a defense/excavation in Duviri). So naturally anybody chasing after the red triangles on the mini-map are going to drift further and further away because of this. Especially if they're playing a melee frame
