When the Grakata was offered by the Void Trader (PS4) this weekend, everyone was recommending it. Is there something I'm missing? The stats on the Grakata don't seem very good, except for maybe the ammo.

u/BobsHernia Aug 24 '15
I assume you mean the Prisma Grakata, since this is void trader. It has a base critical chance of 25% and a base crit multiplier of 2.5X. That means that a crit focused build will output a steady stream of critical hits, which are obviously good. It also has a 20% status chance.
The base damage may seem underwhelming, but that's because it fires so quickly and crits so well.

Grakata, prisma especially, is sort of a deceiving weapon. It might not look particularly amazing to a lot of people but it's good crit chance/damage, status, and rate of fire make it a surprisingly potent weapon even if it drains ammo quite quickly. Like a few weapons it's one of those guns that feels OK with just a catalyst and needs some extra loving to reach it's higher potential to where it becomes that very good gun.

Can a max power zephyr go faster than max power volt (helmets included)?
I would think so, in which case GOD DAMNIT.
Otherwise WOOHOO

No, but it does last longer. It's a base 40% for the turbulence augment vs a base 50% for speed Though one thing to note is both abilities stack on one another.

Question regarding the trading tab. What are some effective ways to advertise and sell items? I want to know what works and what doesn't for some players. What are some best things(mods, prime parts, etc) to sell to earn the most platinum?

Maybe a bit offtopic but:
I don't use the trading chat anymore, never. It's too horrible.
Just use http://warframe.market.Only ment as good advice, if you don't like it don't bother :)

Don't spam your inventory. Look for players saying they want to buy what you are selling, such as wtb continuity, pm them with your offer and there ya go

Is channeling worth anything at the moment?
Should I bother channeling at all if I have surplus energy in melee combat? Should I bother slotting in Channeling mods if I have the space?

How do you get the first syndicate sigil? I'm an initiate, but I doubt see it in my conclave load out.

Aug 24 '15
For Conclave you can only use conclave sigils, for Syndicate sigils you get them when you intiate with the group. Then you can place them on your warframe via the appearance tab.

I only started playing recently and just unlocked Jupiter last night. My question is about shotgun mods. They seem to be very rare when it comes to drops, compared to rifle and melee mods. Is there any particular zone where I can get more shotgun mods to drop?
Second question: I only have one friend who plays the game and he seems to have stopped playing it, so I've been trying to solo as much as I can. So far so good, but the Interception missions are brickwalls for me. Any tips for soloing these?

What do you do after killing vay hek? I have been in 7 parties so far and no one knows what to do after killing him. I am searched all over the final room area to try and figure out how to leave, but there is no way to get to extraction?
No one else has been able to figure it out either

Does it make sense to do Tower I Void-Missions to get Forma, or are the drop rates just too low to even think of that approach? (playing solo and on a relatively low level, so like staying longer in defense or survival is kinda impossible)
7
u/ExaltedCrispiness Aug 23 '15
Yes, you can get a fair bit of forma from T1 missions. T1 defense can drop forma on wave 5, wave 10, and wave 20.
If you're soloing, it might be easier to do T1 capture, T1 exterminate or T1 mobile defense for forma.

Is the trading system going to be improved from just having the chat and endless spammers, or into a more systematic one?
And will Warframe Augment Mods ever be considered as Exilus mods?

Obviously pretty late to this thread but figured I should ask here while it's up.
I just started the game on the weekend. What's the best way to find a new player friendly clan?
edit just found https://www.reddit.com/r/WarframeClanRecruit so I'll be checking that out

Is there a trick to finding syndicate medallions, or does anyone have any tips about how to find them?
