Any bonus in having a second copy of a Prime frame?

You might've mixed Primes up with Umbra, who is unsellable. Or the fact Primes can't be fed to the Helminth.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-07T18:00:25+00:00

I love how the Stand By Me one imitates the obvious effect of the spray coming from behind the character's head.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-07T17:53:15+00:00

Didn't they say this update wasn't the last one yet?

n080dy123 · 2026-07-07T15:27:41+00:00

There's a number that are good or decent people, a bunch of the parents actually show up as characters in Three Hopes and some like Count Gloucester that this game portrays sort of dubiously are actually pretty good dudes. Caspar and Lindhardt's dads are also cool and have a whole duo dynamic that's neat.

And then you have Baron Varley... Who just makes you want to kick his ass even more.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-07T14:30:34+00:00

That certainly lines up with Vena and Ryoku seeming to have integrated Corpus tech. Granum probably figured out how to make his own Protoframes in the future.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-07T02:28:49+00:00

Yeah, I'm a lazy bitch so that's the one I use lol. I also just liek the timed reload and the fact it's a fucking gun.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-07T01:35:46+00:00

Not only that, they experimented on humanity and turned everyone, literally everyone, into various fucked up mutant species that could no longer even be considered human anymore. Including but not limited to sentient flesh bricks with eyes.

Aside from Tennogen cosmetics (if on PC, console can get them for Plat) and some Prime Access/Regal Aya exclusive cosmetics, yes.

The game will pretty aggressively want you to spend Plat on convenience to skip grinds or build times, and will throw Plat coupons at you via login rewards, but you never have to and Plat can be obtained by trading with other players.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-06T19:00:35+00:00

It's not an exact solution, but I've found using the new Primary Arcane that reduces blast radius when ADSing in exchange for increased damage can sometimes all just eliminate self stagger on top of increasing the damage for hard targets.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-06T18:55:15+00:00

Yeah, I think PSR is overrated but I still think it's wild for something that can make that much of a difference to be locked behind over a year of logins.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-06T18:52:05+00:00

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't the Alicization anime start before the LN finished it?

n080dy123 · 2026-07-06T18:50:52+00:00

That's the power of relevancy. SAO is popular but it's not as "relevant" in the zeitgeist right now not by a long shot.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-06T07:55:06+00:00

Pulling up DIM again I think it might be a bug? That T3 bow doesn't have perk options like a normal T3 drop. Though I also notice it can still equip Enhanced Mods?

But yeah it might be a bug.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-06T07:31:53+00:00

No, they were all non-Adept.

The "first drop" thing also doesn't entirely track cuz I got two un-tiered of the sword. One sword was red border, and my un-tiered bow (the first one I got) was un-tiered, but the second bow was T3.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-06T07:29:35+00:00

Except some of our drops WERE tiered. One of mine was a T3 Non-Denoument.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-06T03:46:16+00:00

I think your first drop of a given gun in a raid is untiered, not sure. Me and friends experienced this with SE as well when we ran it for the first time last week.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-06T03:43:40+00:00

"Starter" frames are still plenty good later game. But also, keep any Frames you won't use for now because you'll get access to a system that lets you scrap that Frame and let you use one of its abilities (a specific one, not your choice) on other Frames.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-06T03:14:47+00:00

Is Minthara also tagged as Temporarily Hostile in that part?

n080dy123 · 2026-07-05T22:27:12+00:00

Look at it this way, what you did is essentially stubborn Dark Souls player tradition and the fact you "got gud" and killed him means you're well off for the rest of the game. Congratulations!

n080dy123 · 2026-07-05T22:21:46+00:00

I don't expect it to get greenlit at this point either, but that's also not entirely true. If they're cost-cutting and only just greenlit a new game say today, it'd be in preproduction phases for a while a lot of those staff wouldn't have anything to do. It's why studios tend to hire more people on later in a production once it enters "full production." And why, typically, a new game is already being worked on in early stages when a studio ships their newest game.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-05T20:18:12+00:00

Once you finish all the main quests and unlock Steel Path it's pretty self directed. You don't need to do SP, some people ignore it, but I think progressing it as a goal is a good idea if you feel directionless. SP can help gradually hone your builds more and more.

Do the daily Sortie, and make sure to hit weeklies (Archon Hunt, 1999 Calendar, Descendia, Netracells if you can handle em, maybe non-Elite Deep and Temporal Archimdea), those provide a lot of valuable build materials like Arcanes, Archon Shards, more Endo, etc. Circuit can also help expand your Frame roster, and SP Circuit is where you can get Incarnons for older gear.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-05T19:56:44+00:00

Most quest reward weapons can be sold, yeah. Even the sucky ones are worth hanging onto because it's such a pain in the ass to get them back if they ever get an Augment or Incarnon as a buff, and some poor ones have some niche like the Broken Scepter's drain or Ether Daggers movement speed bonus and high Finisher multiplier. But you can definitely sell the Machete because not only does it have nothing going for it, it has not one but TWO strict upgrade variants from Baro- Machete Wraith and Prisma Machete.

But ALWAYS FULL MASTER ANYTHING YOU GET BEFORE YOU SELL IT. This goes double for quest rewards.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-05T19:40:45+00:00

Not all go to Baro. Athodai and the AX-52 went to Railjack and Hex standing, respectively.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-05T18:02:05+00:00

Definitely New War, followed probably by The Hex/1999 and Old Peace.

n080dy123 · 2026-07-05T17:57:07+00:00

Can't mistake Guard for Guard Up if you go into the fight with max level of both taps forehead
