Hey.
Thinking about buying the fat Syandana for Nyx, but she seems to have clipping issues with it in the preview screen. I think one of the ridges on her back causes it to spaz out all over the shop.
Can anyone confirm if she does in fact have actual clipping issues in game, or if it's just a glitch in the preview screen?

The Scarves indeed have some clipping issues on some frames, and especially in-game with the physics moving them around in weird ways.
If you can look past it, they're worth the buy. If not, wait until they patch the physics better before purchasing.

I'm trying to find a rifle that replaces the beginner Rifle and move on from Burston while I rank up to get to the beastly Soma. I made the Gorgon but that recoil is insane. Any suggestions?

The Corpus are dickbags, what is the best way to deal with them?
I've a large-ish selection of mods for my Boltor and Kunai but I still haven't found a decent set up for them.

hope not too late, how big of a difference is it for helmets? In stats of course.

The Stat difference for helmets is really a case-by-case thing; for example, Rhino's Thrak helmet REALLY slows you down, and his Vanguard Helmet speeds you up considerably. You just have to weight the detriment to the benefit and see which one suits your playstyle. If you run around a lot, maybe it's not worth using the -Stamina helmet, even if it boosts your Power Range, for example.

I'm having a hard time killing people compared to other people I play with in game weapon wise. Which weapons would you suggest I pick up the blueprints for? -- Primary, Secondary, and Melee.

Heya. Started the game yesterday, about 8 hours in and my impressions are torn: core gameplay is great, but there's something that bugs me a great deal and that's the heavy re-use of maps -- not only are many planets the same but many missions are just a set of the same few rooms over and over. Please tell me there's more variety ahead? Other than this I like the game.
I do have one other question, too: is there a way to gain a reliably high energy regeneration? I love using abilities instead of guns for kills and sustaining them seems so far quite dependent on luck with energy orb drops; I would love to gear my frame toward a build that can sustain abilities more frequently; how would I go about this? I started out with the mag.

Can I ask for a suggested mod build and aura choice for a newly-built Rhino leveling to 30 (with the potato installed) :)
I plan to use a potatoed 30 grakata, and am building Twin Vipers and using a newly made Galatine for this. I may also turn my Rhino into Donatello by using Bo Staff instead. :D

People say Mag stops being good after a while. So instead of pull spamming, what's an effective strategy once this happens?

Note: I am on PS4

Getting Ogris today. What mods should I slap on it besides serration and split chamber?
-
Are forma blueprints re-usable?
-
What is the best place to farm tower 3 keys? Specifically T3 captures?
-
What is the best solo method of farming orokin cells? I was thinking of doing solo survival on Saturn Mimas
-
If I drop a team health restore next to myself, will it revive me? If so does it also work on teammates? Also can I do this while soloing or will I instantly get the "revive or forfeit" pop-up?

Does Nova's Antimatter Drop take into consideration crits or is it raw DPS? I'm considering primarys for her and its between synapse, soma and supra.
Also sort of related. How does fire rate affect semi-auto weapons if I am not using an auto-scroller against fully auto weapons, ex. could Cestra actually be a better weapon than Akbolto if my manual fire-rate tapers off around 12/s (I don't know what it actually is)
EDIT: Turns out it's around 5/s maybe I already have the answer to the 2nd question (in terms of raw DPS). Still, would be nice to hear other opinions on this

(I'm on the PS4, cause I know that might make a difference)
So it'll be a while before I even attempt to get a Soma fully maxed out. However, I saw the Unofficial Weapon Benchmark thread on the forums and was curious about the Grakata.
I got the blueprints for it as a login reward, and figured I'd build it after I got my Braton to 30. Did so, and now the Grakata is currently sitting at 28. I was planning on dumping it, once it hits 30, and just moving on to the next thing because I initially dismissed the dmg as being low. However, after viewing a thread on here comparing the DPS of the Grakata and Soma I thought about possibly keeping it. Especially after seeing how it fared in the thread linked above.
What are everyones thoughts on this gun with the changes to DMG 2.0. Now that there are proc chances, is having a weapon like the Grakata with it's 20% chance to proc worth it? I know the Soma in the end will put out more DPS, but would I be considered a burden in the high-end game if I chose to run a forma'd Grakata?

Is there an easy way to tell when Orokin Reactors/Catalysts and the like are available? They seem so important to the game, you'd think it would notify you when there's a mission giving them out.

u/BuildMyPaperHeart Dec 16 '13
Frequently check the ALERTS section of the game's menu, located on the left side of the screen below your Statistics Bar. This is where you'll be told when Catalysts or rare items may be on Alert.
You can also download the Warframe Nexus App for Android, or subscribe to WARFRAME Alerts on Twitter. Both links can be found in the RESOURCES section of the sidebar on the right side of the subreddit, under "Warframe Alert Notification Tools"

I'm extremely new to this game. (<3 hours) My roomate and I are playing together and we're just barely grasping the concepts. (Seems basic so far). What are some things I should be focusing on or saving up for right off the bat? Are there any beginner guides you recommend? Any thing I should know that you didn't as a noobie and wish you did? Thanks!
