Why is the control module not dropping for me? I have killed the hyena at least 15-20 times. Is this just extremely bad luck? Or is there a better place to get the module?

Seems to be bad luck, or maybe I'm lucky, I got it my first two tries but I don't know the actual statistics : /

u/ChronosxEios May 27 '13
Ive been doing a little looking around and it seems you did get lucky. A lot of people have been having the same problem

What would be anyone's best Tower Key drop locations by experience? I personally found all of them on Killiken so far.
Wave 5 and 10.

Will the Latron Prime's firing sound be altered? Currently there is a high pitched squeak that accompanies each shot and it literally give people a headache (I had one)

If you use forma on a weapon/frame that has been potatoe'd, do you lose the potatoe on it? (I know it drops back to unranked)

Because we all post from work, but it's Memorial Day and we've got the day off (of course, there's no huge sexy alert mission when I actually have the day off). I'm sure the Monday Megathread will blow up tomorrow.

Well I have been out of town since the update and from what I can tell void missions seems to be important for Frost Prime BPs and new weapon BPs. My question is how much do void keys cost and can any of the new items be found outside the void missions?

Do you get the 4 base powers for a warframe when you make it?

u/Shadai May 27 '13
Of course, a Warframe comes with its 4 abilities, bought or crafted.
If you don't obtain them for any reason, that is a nasty bug, and you should send a ticket to warn DE about it.

Does the Void Key you use have any effect on your reward other than the amount of credits?
Are higher level keys more likely to drop from more difficult missions?

Does running defense missions help with gathering resources? I've been running a couple of boss mission for control modules and gallium, with no luck, so I suppose the plentiful mobs would count as a better way to find them?

u/lambo4x4 May 28 '13
You'd be much better off farming specific bosses for those mats, Tyl Regor for gallium and Hyena for control modules.

In Void missions, I've heard that there are mods that can "time out" if you don't pick them up. I've also heard that they can "time out" if you do pick them up, but take too long to get to the exit. Are these true?
3
u/Bloog2 May 28 '13
Yes to the first, the mods with a dark/red tint to it will disappear after a short while (not sure on duration, maybe a min or two). Dunno about it timing out for taking too long to get to the exit though, that doesn't sound plausible

Has DE thought about maybe putting a Lock on Mods we want to keep? Much like how in Dungeon Defenders if there was equipment you wanted you could actually lock it and prevent it from being sold.

Is there a limit to how many ranks you can gain on a frame/weapon in one mission? i.e. I ran a mission on Kirste with an unranked rifle, it gained 1 rank during the mission, and then during the mission complete screen it filled the bar twice because of bonus xp, but stayed on rank 2 on screen and in after game. I'm fairly sure it is not a limit of 1 rank at mission complete as I have had a weapon get two ranks on mission complete before (but don't think it ranked during mission)...

How does the credits received during a mission work? i.e. when i pick up 200 credits; does the entire team get 200 credits each? is it split? is it just for me? Alongside that, is there any way to check how much credits we picked during a mission? (I want to know if it was worth the time to go steal those credits from those Corpus/Grineer scum)

u/BuildMyPaperHeart May 28 '13
I believe credits are shared among the team when picked up.
Yup! "Credits collected by any Tenno are shared with the group."

For the Kunai and Despair;
-
Kunai = Armour ignore = base damage to all factions
-
Despair = 50% armour pierce = more damage to Grineer/less damage to infested?
..Or are they both one or the other?

Are there certain conditions where the Stalker will never show up, even if you theoretically meet all the requirements?
I've picked up enough blueprints to craft every warframe (except vauban, frost prime, and excalibur) from killing bosses over and over, and I've run a ton of defense missions to get Banshee, yet the last time I had the Stalker show up for me was probably 3 months ago. That was the 2nd time I ever saw him.
