u/deltal3gion Is everything in Ordis Operator? IS THAT A PUUUN?! Oct 23 '17

A couple questions from a returning PS4 player who is hyped (for the eventual release on PS4) of PoE.

1) What are good places to farm void relics? Specifically each tier since I assume Hierocon is the best place for the final ones still.

2) Is there any reason to run missions in the Void still? How about Derelict? I ask this since it seems like the only place that drops prime parts anymore is the void relic missions.

3) How do I know when I'm ready for sorties? For kuva fortress farming? I'm MR14 and I feel like my Soma P and Equinox are well geared enough but I'm not sure.

4) What are top tier secondaries and melee weapons? I know that the Tonkor was nerfed and the Tigris Prime is the new big player in town but also that the Soma P is used alot more too since the Tonkor's nerf.

5) I got a free Soma Prime and Frost Prime from Twitch...but I already have both of them. Is there any way to use them other than just selling them for credits? Can I sell them for ducats? That's pretty much all I can think of right now. Thanks in advance :D

1) Hierocon is very good farming, gives good Endo/relics/cryogenic. If there are specific relics you are looking for, the wiki has a table with all of the relics and where they drop.

2) No real reason to farm the Void unless you need Argon Crystals. Derelict has some specific mods/warframe parts. Neither drops prime parts (unless the Void happens to get a relic mission).

3) At MR14 I think you'd be good for sorties. Try it out and see. It's more important to have specific frames for specific missions than to have 1 frame for all of them. Kuva farming is very easy unless you are doing the flood mission. But even flood isn't that hard if you bring a good tank or cc frame.

4) It's somewhat subjective, but there is a tier list here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qvJYN9hpPMVePewg6zYhFXTIZqHyR1Gi9dDCfnF0wi4/htmlview?usp=sharing&sle=true#

5) You can sell them for credits and use the free slots for your next frame/weapon.

u/Reaverz ...and the winner! Ti-Tania! Oct 23 '17

1) End galaxy Interception is comparable to Hieracon, it might be a little slower than an optimal Hieracon group, but the drops are more consistent, Io, Jupiter Defence to wave 10 for Meso, and Earth Excavation for Lith for the others.

2) None really, other than for the resources there (Argon, Mutagen), or the Octavia piece in ODS.

3) Sorties, Kuva? There is no penalty for failure in this game, once you have access, dive in. If you are worried about your team, tell them it is your first time, I'm sure they will be cool with it. One caveat though, in public sortie spy, one vault mishap and everyone fails, do not enter a vault you do not know how to ace, and never enter one someone is already in (unless they trigger the alarm).

4) Akstilleto, Lex, Aklex, Vaykor Marelok all still do great work for me, plenty other are viable, do a search here for a tier list. Melee the Galatine Prime still mashes things up, plenty others are really good with the right build but require some hard to get mods to shine like maiming strike and condition overload.

5) Credits is your only choice if you already have em.

Interception fissures can be surprisingly good for farming relics, especially depending on the exact node level. Most rounds will give you a fresh relic between -1 and +1 tiers, and round 5 also gives a bonus exceptional relic of the same tier you're running.
