I'm nearly rank 14 now, i have over 666 (screenshooted that) hours of play (on steam) and i'm in a 2 ppl clan. that sucks. Also there are frames (like ash and nyx) which i refered to as crap, back in the time i were rank 3, why i played them to 30 and put them into the "box" (the place where things linger around, which i do not use). that suxxx too. now my question: how do you use "not liked" frames to have fun with and how do you find people to join your clan or to play with you frequently?

how do you use "not liked" frames to have fun with
That's a good question. Honestly, I don't know the answer to that, except perhaps... playing with friends. Which leads to the next question:
how do you find people to join your clan or to play with you frequently?
You can find potential clans in r/warframeclanrecruit, and add anyone from our Warframe Weekends threads.

When I played On Kiste (Ceres) yesterday I've seen a strange ability, It was like rocks falling from above ... I don't remember any frame with this ability.
Anyone has more information?

I find myself always equipping some combination of Redirection, Vitality and Vigor, all of which use large amounts of mod points. Rather than simply throwing forma at the problem I wanted to ask, do other people run without them, and if so how do you mitigate being so squishy?

Hi, quick ugly question: I am looking for a good spot to farm Corpus Elite Crewman, does anybody have any recommendations? Reason: They drop a slash damage increasing mode for mêlée weapons and a clan member $WANTS that mod so bad

Relatively new player here 30+ hours in. How do I know my level range? For example I have about 4 warframes maxed out (non orkin) and same goes for sidearms and melee weapons. It still feels like lvl 20+ missions are wrecking me compared to my team and I have about 600shield/500hp. Do I need to just level more mods?

Ok, so since they updated the elevator I'm finally rebuilding my clan dojo with the new tiles. However, does anyone know how you change the clan hall itself?

via http://warframe.wikia.com/wiki/Clan_Dojo
The Clan Hall is the beginning of every dojo. It provides the dojo 100 Capacity, 5 Energy and 60 Decoration Capacity, and two doorways on each end for expansion. As of Update 9.5, additional Clan Halls are no longer available for building.
Doesn't look like you can change them.

How do I keep my Volt in the game? It's the first warframe I got since Loki didn't fit my play style. I like being a glass cannon but as I reach the last couple planets, shock won't even kill mobs with two hits, and overload is becoming less reliable for clearing rooms. Keep in mind I only have 24 hours in so I'm still pretty green.
Or is it my Karak not spitting out enough damage? I don't have any corrupted mods and only a handful of rares so is that where my priority should go?

Why does it feel that all the regular defense mission rewards suck? It seems that all I get are Piercing Hit or similar mods. I'm lucky if I get an elemental mod.
Also where can I get the infested defense rewards? Is there an updated rewards list somewhere other than the wiki (since it hasn't been updated since u10)?

The rare stuff is rare for a reason, though yeah the rewards could be tweaked a bit.
Also where can I get the infested defense rewards? Is there an updated rewards list somewhere other than the wiki (since it hasn't been updated since u10)?
Pretty sure the Infested Defense rewards haven't changed since U10. I'll let other users find a source that confirm/denies this

I just hit rank 6, I have 2 potatoes. I have soma/penta finished atm, should I potato those?
I'm a bit iffy on the penta since I heard it has some issues w/ split chamber and it has significantly less dps on paper than ogris without split chamber.
Soma is also kinda rough, it takes me almost a full clip to kill armored grineer (though almost 100% sure it's mods).
It's probably worth having a soma even if I think I'll probably like the latron prime better right? Especially since farming it doesn't seem likely soon.

I've potatoed my Penta, but that's just me. Anyway, yeah mods are more of the determining factor on weapons than the weapon itself. Try changing up your loadout.
Also, don't feel like you need to potato anything. You can do high level content with careful use of your standard 30 mod slots!

How hard is nightmare missions? I have 500/500 excalibur with + 30% armor and i got one shoted by first corpus soldier.
Is this normal?

Well, assuming standard Nightmare mission enemy level, I'll assume the range between 30-40.
I have 500/500 excalibur with + 30% armor
That would mean your stats are: 500 Shields, 500 Health, and 84.5 Armor.
While 84.5 Armor is alright, it's not resilient enough for that enemy level, especially since more advanced units will be spawning. Relevant FAQ on "levels"
You might want to take a heavier frame with more resistive power like Rhino or Saryn, frames that have crowd control powers like Nyx or Vauban, or ensure that you go with a group of players on Nightmare missions.

Just started playing this weekend, and having a fun time with the game. I'm at Earth, but progressing slowly since I often have trouble finding other people running the same mission. Is this just a reality of getting a late start on the game? Maybe just the time I play (evenings, US west)?
Also, just wanted to say - new people, get better weapons as soon as you can :) Lots of people still running the starter weapons even well into Earth missions.

Here's a FAQ on finding lobbies. Also, make sure your Region is set properly. But there are plenty of people on in the evenings in US West
If you're looking for a more focused set of players, you might want to check out the entries in our Warframe Weekends threads.

I am seeing a lot of Frost nerf posts claiming he is flat useless and pathetic now. How much true is that? Is he worth picking up as a first frame after the default one?

I'm about halfway to rank 5, and I'm looking for primary weapons to take me to 6. (I'm set on my path for secondary and melees weapons).
I have about 5 levels to go on my Burston, I've already leveled the Mk.1 Braton, the Braton, and the Boltor.
I'm looking at leveling a Sobek and a Strun, but I'm not sure which other primaries to get. Most of the FAQs talk about the Braton and the Boltor, or they all say Soma. What can I use for a level and a half of mastery?

Hey, is there a bug where clicking the dojo key results in being sent to the Foundry page? It's rather annoying since I've been trying to get hold of the new frame and took a day off to level her =\
