And my latest pitfall… make sure that if you want to turn on cross save that your friends also have it on otherwise you won’t be able to trade with them.
my advice for the railjack one, DO NOT buy it on the market, you can very easily build the railjack within an hour or so with barely any grinding required for the actual resources, by the time you are able to start the mission you should already have all the required resources from just playing the game normally.
yeah, I don't even remember what made me think I needed railjack before new war, but I did it so fast that I don't even remember the grind, and then joining random crews is a super fast way to get upgraded components and intrinsics.
@@syphus552 I didn't. I pretty much never buy things I can grind for in game, but man, buying a necramech is definitely getting your money's worth. That took a hot minute, and the things that supposedly have made the grind easier didn't really help me at all.
for MR9/19 Players can use the Skiajati, upon finisher the player will go invisible until sprinting, since the test is melee only you can breeze it via skiajati
I just sniped from the spawn. Works great. Thk god they fixed that one grineer spawn killing you. And thk god it only happened to me while in practice.
The "don't play the meta" one can be applied to almost every game. People who blindly search for meta to feel powerfull ingame can be bored and quit the game quite early. One of the most satisfying feeling for gamers is when you find out how the game work and use that knowledge to make your game easier, or more interesting.
That depends … obviously seeing big numbers is pretty fun for some people no one likes to play a game and feel weak maybe dark souls players. In the end you should do what ever you enjoy. Whether its meta or not. Warframe as a ton of frames meaning a ton of play styles whether you happen enjoy a meta frame should be from a playstyle
its also possible to write for example "Corrosion" into the mod search field and it will give you the mods with which you can create corrosion. When i started this did not exist at least
Iv just recently gotten back into Warframe and glad I gave it another go. Once you get past the learning curve, this really becomes an amazing game! Last time I was so overwhelmed and gave up. Now im addicted and logging in every chance I get. Thanks for the great content!
The meta one is a big one. After 10 years of playing, I've learned the meta is only good for two things: learning the intricacies of the system, _and drawing inspiration for builds you wanna create yourself, in your own style, for fun._ Almost all of the 25+ frames in my inventory were built with the intention of imitating someone else's steel path meta build. Almost every single one of them I ended up disliking and heavily modifying to suit my playstyle, without making them any weaker. Many of them I ended up making stronger and more efficient by accident, even, just by experimenting. Just like you will with your own builds, new tenno reading this. Don't listen to anyone saying "this is the only viable build". They're full of it every time.
I almost always build for far better energy efficiency than "meta" builds have. Nothing more annoying than being constantly energy starved or playing an unending minigame to keep it up. Additionally I build more defences for more relaxed play style. Damage is not lacking as long as one has good weapons.
Another thing the "meta builders" dont tell you is, their builds will require platinum. You will need a fair amount of forma. And you need all mod slots unlocked. Yes the exilus adapter is obtainable by grinding, but it's tedious and long to do so. And a LOT of the "meta builds" for weapons all require riven mods which cost plat to buy from other players, especially if your RNG luck is bad.
The thing that I find most frustrating about this game is how it tells you basically nothing. Like elemental mods go by what order they are placed in? How am I supposed to know that? I've watched like 10 modding videos too and no one brings it up. Its one of the most fun free games out there but the usability is scuffed
Ignoring that the game infact has both a Tips section at the bottom right of your screen and Tutorials in most menus which helps explain things, part of learning your question of "Like elemental mods go by what order they are placed in?" is by experimenting: I want to make blast. The game tells me cold and heat. Slot in cold with toxin and heat. Hmmmmm my damage page says I have viral and heat instead, i wonder what happened? Let me shuffle my mods around. Wow I now made Gas and cold instead, huh i guess placement order is important. This is natural logic train one would occur if they simply messed around with the arsenal
Agreed there’s a learning curve to the game, for new players it’s overwhelming and confusing. Personally I didn’t find the tip portion of the mods helpful, if anything it irrated me even more because it only gave a short brief explanation instead of explaining anything useful. Playing Warframe requires a lot of trial and error and definitely not a game for ppl who are new to looter shooters.
@@Mike-pb7tk naw it’s more about user experience. Same for web design and program design, if a user spends their first few minutes trying to figure out how the site/ program works then they’ll get frustrated and leave. They want to skip the learning curve and get straight to the fun part. But if they have to decipher how to do even the most basic things then it feels like a waste of time. If you create a tutorial in game that explains things properly and lets the player have fun learning at the same time then it lets the player feel like they’re getting somewhere instead of running around in circles. People don’t want to be hand held through every little detail because it’s annoying, but they also don’t want to flounder in the beginning either. The important thing is finding the right balance
I suggest beginners getting the Amesha archwing before doing open worlds. Amesha is literally the pocket Revenant en frost in one. You can use it for the defence objectives or when you are struggeling cuz of incoming damage. For the Plains it is such a good set up with volt, use volt for speed like with the drone part. Use Amesha for all the defence crap. Cuz of the Amesha bubbles (2nd ability) you can easily keep objectives HP up all the time. Such a sleeper archwing.
I counter that the Itzal may be better. Its faster and you use cosmic crush near containers to gobble them up. Super easy resource farm. Especially on Deimos open world as it's LITTERED with goodies everywhere. Also, you can just float still while invisible and blast away at enemies.
@@DLOArceus yes, normal people use itzal because its fast which is so much better for general gameplay and for boss hunting like eidolons and profit taker
@@DLOArceus probably. Cuz most if not all new players that doesnt know (or most likely doesnt care) much about archwing just went along with odonata till the jordas golem mission
One tip I will expand on is the Warframe Market one, the market gives you better prices…most of the time. I would still post in the trade chat because sometimes people are willing to sell/bargain for cheaper price than the market. It’s not always the case but it may save you some plat from time to time.
From my experience, its easier to buy warframes from trade chat because the primed warframes actually cost less than the marketplace price for the standard frames.
About point 3: The most important thing is the order of the companions! If there is a mod at the beginning that allows the accompanied attack, it will rarely support you (regenerate shields or something else) as long as enemies are in range. What Mod will be used most often should be placed at the front
I agree with point 6, as in, VERY AGREEABLE! I burnt out trying to keep up with squads as they get toxic if you don't pull your weight etc. Turn the chat off if it bothers and just enjoy the game. I'm legendary 2 and I'm only now finding new different frames to play with that are fun. Same with weapons. Its brought a whole new game to the surface again.
Im L1 right now, have about a dozen kuva tenet weapons to add forma too. I've been using my vast experience to recommend new weapons to people. Incarnates are nice and all, but sometimes you just want a creature comfort weapon. Mine has been the Tenet Tetra or Plink, massive room clearing AOE weapons that actually scale better than the bramma? sign me up . . . . I've been trying to show the alliance all the weapons they will miss out on that are so much fun if they only use "meta" stuff
YOU CAN BUY PRIME WARFRAME SETS FOR WAY CHEAPER FROM OTHER PLAYERS THAN YOU CAN BUY THE REGULAR VERSIONS FROM THE DE MARKET. Don’t pay 375 plat for a void rig or 325 for wisp. Pay 80 plat instead.
You can bypass MR requirement for the weapon if you buy a pack/bundle containing that weapon. For example, Exergis is MR8 weapon, but you can get it early by purchasing Vallis Domination Collection (Which also includes Plinx and Galvacord - both MR6 weapons)
check invasion missions when logging in game and as much as possible do them there are from time to time rewards like forma orokin reactors and catalysts which save you platinum some invasions give you weapon parts and those weapons are almost always only available there clan weapons require materials you can craft but they take time and resources while invasions give you the materials already made
Bonus for Syndicates - pay attention to the allies/enemies, and don't pick opposing sides. Good combos are Steel Meridian/CephSuda, or Red Veil/Perrin Sequence - either way will get you levelling _four_ factions, not just two, as the 50% allied gains don't cancel each other out.
My single biggest piece of newbie advice is to find a clan who is willing to help someone new. When I first started, that's what helped me get past the killer beginning bits. And now, as one of the leaders of a rather large clan, I always help any newbies I come across as much as I can without outright making the game free for them
I can't stress enough to not follow the meta and just play what you want. I have so much fun trying new frames and experimenting. I cycle between so many frames. I just got Yareli and love her. I play Vauban all the time, and I have a fun Sevagoth build. It's way more fun just messing around rather than worrying about if my build is the best.
Actually as a neat trick for Simiris standing, just use an invisible warframe and go on a free roam while on Steel Path , on any of the lands and just scan enemies while invisible. You can net around 340+ simiris standing for EACH ENEMY. Easy nab 100 enemies so that would be 34,000 simiris standing. I was originally told to go on Zariman exterminate steel path ( which yes it nets around 430 per scan while invisib and no altert. So it is level based so if you level cap out a mission with enemies in the 1000s, each scan can literally soak you to max standing with simiris. 😏 No more annoying HUNT missions getting only 4k each. ✊
I do Kuva Fortress spy mission to max standing in one run. Not only do the enemies give the nice juicy standing, so do cameras and turrets. And a number of them 'respawn' (and can be re-scanned) when you double-back as part of the mission path.
@@Orosian5 but you still have to finish the mission. Otherwise if you fail you lose it all . With free roam you can leave whenever you want. Just jump back in the elevator and return whenever.
railjack are considerably and i mean by a lot more easier to farm than necramechs. Imma just admit that i hate mining. Im playing a damn looter shooter not minecraft. And finding the cave in deimos for the first time is just a pain in the ass. I got massive deja vu farming for the necramech from the time i farmed for gara.
I played practically religiously from the start of 2017 to the end of 2019, and I NEVER got the Despair to drop from the Stalker even once. Only ever got the one Hate, and like 4 Dreads.

i used to- the odd time- sell weapons. but ever since Durviri arrived and gives you random weapons each run, ive started saving my weapons, even crappy weapons such as the Stug
Starting anything new which already has a community built for it please ask for help, i know i did and i am really glad i did unbeknownst to me the person i asked for help was a founder and just like any other beginners in warframe i didn't knew what that mean either, but he helped me in a lot of way and to this day he is my friend on warframe and we play the game together, but remember some people can be bad or make you feel like you shouldn't be playing this game but trust me there are a lot of people who will genuinely help you. So please ask
That’s dope, I’m gonna try that. I just started warframe and there’s hella to do and learn. I’m learning from these comments and experiences. I gotta be more social FS
Such a great video! specially the thing about playing what you want. I remember I spent my starter plat on nidus instead of slots, and while I accept that it wasn't the "correct choice", I really loved nidus. He is the reason I started to really like Warframe. before playing nidus I enjoyed the game, but once I got nidus I started to do so much stuff! I used to think it was because nidus was stronger, but it really was juts because I was having more fun when playing, so without noticing it. I stopped playing for a while but I did get back to play it when twitch gave us nekros, I remember I always wanted nekros bc he was the "farm god" and when I tried it... it was ok.. but it just wasn't for me, glad I didn't really farm him bc i would have been so disappointed, I just never enjoyed the gameplay he has.
DON'T spend nightwave credits until you need them or before it change. Don't be like me who didn't know that to craft every prime frame you need NITAIN EXTRACT which the only reliable place you can get is nightwave so i had to wait more than a week and grind the mission to get some.
I agree Plus there are a good amt of mods in open world bounties namely cetus that can help you out quite abit and some of these mods even stick with ya till the end game
It’s very much learning by doing🤣 as I learned earlier today, (I started playing yesterday) going in vastly underleveled and taking on random fun-looking enemies will get you killed😂 But i love the absolute chaos. I met some sort of huge stomping machine by Cetus and got annihilated because I couldn’t find the weak point
You wanna know something really cool. I've been watching Flo's vids for like a year. And every. single. time. I watch one. I learn something new. Appreciate the help as always.
i started like 20 days ago and have been trying to rush to the event and got stuck on the open world stuff, like the necramech build, and just started to learn how to mine too XD what i learned from a friend was to grab the laser to farm minerals from fortuna and not cetus because its a better version
In my opinion I believe you need two copies of every mod within reason of course a maxed one or as close to Max as possible without breaking the bank and an unranked one so when you forma your build you can still have a copy of the mod in the slot but it takes up less mod cap and if you're a fish brain like me I don't forget what my build is while doing multiple forma
Honestly for the necromech just sell a few items on the warframe market and buy it from the in game market when you get a 25% or more off your next purchase
I got to mr13 last night and I am only just finding out about the arrangement of mods... wow. That's something. Thanks for that. Also, the necramech grind is... still worth crying over. It's not too bad, but myxostomata just won't show up. *cry* Great video, by the way. Helpful as always!
Not just bait but the right bait processed Vome if I'm not mistaken. Regular vome residue wont cut it. Be sure to go where the fish icons have popped up for a spawn swell. Higher chance of spawning/spawn rate.
@@NotoriousNickNorris Thanks. The only thing that had been holding me back was this. I had to grind standing with the entrati up to 'Friend' to be able to unlock Processed Vome Residue
@@marcus2554 the thing is hate and despair with normal stalker is like 6% with shadow stalker it drops down to 3% because war and brokenwar also become drops. and dread remains 37%.
Came back from a hiatus, forgot most things about the game, got to a point with the weapon inventory restrictiveness and sold everything I had maxed except for my Soma and a couple things This sadly included the Dread bow My shame is right on the edge of manifesting corporeally as I listen to this
I would definitely add that you need two copies of each mod 11:30 one copy to max out the other copy rank 0 for theory crafting builds while your formaing it so when you reset back to rank zero it doesn't throw all your mods off your warframe
I sold dread, and then I wanted it back.... So I just crafted it again cause I have like 20something blueprints for it lmfao. Dread is not really a big deal to seal, now hate and despair, do not sell those, I still don't have despair lmao.
Thanks for the vid i new majority of the stuff but definitely gave me some tips i didn't know plus glad ya had the time stamps so i could look into what i didn't know or knew little about
I'm so glad I finally decided to give this game a try. Now I'm already completely addicted in my first 2 weeks of playing. I've been having so much fun w/ Limbo's crazy abilities and then I just revert back to my maxed out Excalibur w/ his exalted blade ability for any missions that require absolutely crazy damage for endless mobs. My current Excal build/setup (mind you I'm still only a brand new MR-4 player) is already capable of doing 5,000 - 6,000 damage PER heavy strike... and each jumping ground pound maneuver w/ the heavy strike button does 2k damage a pop and those can be spammed one after another endlessly to stun lock and AOE entire mobs w/ 2k damage ground pounds every 2 seconds... It's actually stupid how much damage my Excalibur can already do and I've only been learning about and playing this game for like 2-3 weeks now lol. Anyways, great game and Limbo is a hidden gem for solo play if you just watch a few youtube videos about how to best exploit his abilities, and of course also buy a skin for him so he actually feels cool to play without constantly staring at his doofy ass top hat lmao. Got my 3rd frame cooking in the oven right now and that's gonna be Vauban who can easily be farmed through the whole Nightwave event. I'm hoping I'll end up liking Vauban too, but if not then I'm already perfectly satisfied so far with Excalibur and Limbo. See you out there fellow Tennos!
Exact same bro. 2 weeks in. Except my 2nd warframe is Hydroid for easy farming endo more passively with his 4th ability. GGs. Feels good finding a free game that's got so much to offer like Warframe
I am so glad to hear that so many new players enjoy discovering new warframes and weapons and how to upgrade them to make them amazingly powerful. I wish I could forget almost everything about Warframe and rediscover it bit by bit. It is such a journey.
Just did the rail jack tn. The grind literally doesn't exist, Ive been pumping things out of my foundry and only had to stop in one mission for neural sensors, and another for control modules.
Ignore pressure point? Melee has been carrying me through the stsrchart along eith rhino and volt, and obtaining the xoris only made melee so much better
lol I made a mistake in the video referring to pressure point as a 10 rank mod when it’s not it’s a 5 rank mod not ignore the mod entirely. I made a woopsie
@@WarframeFlo oh dang, thought it was saying ignore it entirely like you meant not to say it. Sorry about the misunderstanding, thanks for the quick response :)
about point 1... i started playing warframe on console in 2014 and got multiple dispair but sold them because they weren't good and i'd got the mastery from them so was done. fast forward to today and dispair is an incarnon option and i've freshly merged my old mr 18 account with my mr 25 pc account and still don't have dispair but thankfully got and kept hate on pc. DONT SELL YOUR STALKER WEAPONS!!!!!!
@@lookalike4805 Not importance, obtainment, my luck is so shit that I'm more likely to get Forma out of relics than anything else, I have close to 40 blueprints and 10 built from either Nightwave or Twitch drops.
I... I bought a frame 😅 the revenant frame and silva & aegil (sword and shield). Yes I'm literally new to Warframe. Is there a video for the basics of wf?
2 things, as someone who uses guass with a sword as a pretty new player, the meta thing is funny because my friends yell at me to use a gun, and WHAT WARFRAME ARE YOU USING DURRING THAT PART OF THE VIDEO PLEEAAAASSEE THEY LOOK SO COOL
Ok cool, so i wasnt the only one redoing MR9 like 2 or 3 times. Faced the practice like 3 times, after the 3rd failure, before going back and completing it.
6:22 another thing I want to add, is that ,most of the time, mods make the weapon. I am interested in unlocking the blender whip in the future, one reason is that it sounds absurd, the other one is because it sounds cool, and even thow it was the meta, and therefore probably nerfed, I ca simply mod it to make it good. Added aiming on switch is the epidemy of mid
I didn’t even know Stalker dropped more than 1 weapon. I have Dread and have been playing for 600 hours. I haven’t gotten a blueprint for his other two weapons
Seeing people obliterate level 150 enemies always reminds me of how much there is in this game (Highest level ive faced is 110 from messing up my kuva lich and having them sent to the kuva fortress)
I tried playing this game, then after a quick UA-cam search and a couple vids on 2x speed I immediately realized “oh no thank you too much homework I’m too old for this sh***”
WarframeFlo: Play a Warframe you enjoy and the weapon that looks cool! Me: *Makes a 0 health, 0 damage, full speed gauss build, takes a sword bigger then the jackal, a bow and some throwing knifes* You asked for it man.
Tip for your sanity: there is no report button on warframe unfortunately, so it’s better to cool off when you encounter a griefer. OK. Technically, there is. But the whole process takes a long time and rather cumbersome that you leaving the match to have a break is better than actually reporting them.
What is something you wish you knew when starting out in warframe? Maybe it’ll help someone in the comments :)
Think nice and hard before subsuming a frame, no point in wasting bile if you are not sure what you want to achieve will work…
And my latest pitfall… make sure that if you want to turn on cross save that your friends also have it on otherwise you won’t be able to trade with them.

I burnt out trying to keep up with squads as they get toxic if you don't pull your weight etc. Turn the chat off if it bothers and just enjoy the game. I'm legendary 2 and I'm only now finding new different frames to play with that are fun. Same with weapons. Its brought a whole new game to the surface again.
Im L1 right now, have about a dozen kuva tenet weapons to add forma too. I've been using my vast experience to recommend new weapons to people. Incarnates are nice and all, but sometimes you just want a creature comfort weapon. Mine has been the Tenet Tetra or Plink, massive room clearing AOE weapons that actually scale better than the bramma? sign me up . . . . I've been trying to show the alliance all the weapons they will miss out on that are so much fun if they only use "meta" stuff
YOU CAN BUY PRIME WARFRAME SETS FOR WAY CHEAPER FROM OTHER PLAYERS THAN YOU CAN BUY THE REGULAR VERSIONS FROM THE DE MARKET. Don’t pay 375 plat for a void rig or 325 for wisp. Pay 80 plat instead.
Prime frames are $40 with real money, aren’t they??
@@CandysChannelmore because you have to buy the prime access to get the primes. Otherwise its trading, or relic farming.
I literally just bought the voidrig before seeing this video, i’m hurting rn haha
Ive seen people sell revenant prime for 60 plat, when the market price is 5 regal aya. Thats half the price!
@@mememan1546 Regal Aya is not a market currency. Platinum is.
You can bypass MR requirement for the weapon if you buy a pack/bundle containing that weapon. For example, Exergis is MR8 weapon, but you can get it early by purchasing Vallis Domination Collection (Which also includes Plinx and Galvacord - both MR6 weapons)
5:36 OMG ITS MEEEEE IM H3RRAH HAHAHAHHAHAHA that’s hilarious 😭😭
“Usually takes 2-4 business days to pick it up” I love it 🤣
check invasion missions when logging in game and as much as possible do them
there are from time to time rewards like forma orokin reactors and catalysts which save you platinum
some invasions give you weapon parts and those weapons are almost always only available there
clan weapons require materials you can craft but they take time and resources while invasions give you the materials already made
always have forma crafting
I didnt know invasions had orikin reactors and catalysts. Thanks for the tip
I wish I knew I’d be powerless against those 50% off plat login rewards. Don’t wanna know how much human money I’ve wasted
🤣 same here bro. Every time.
I reckon I've spent $300+ over the years
5:36 As a non English user, I love how bro react to your Xata's whispering
Bonus for Syndicates - pay attention to the allies/enemies, and don't pick opposing sides. Good combos are Steel Meridian/CephSuda, or Red Veil/Perrin Sequence - either way will get you levelling _four_ factions, not just two, as the 50% allied gains don't cancel each other out.
I love watching these videos even though I’m not a beginner lol
Me too
7:50 I think it’s a real trap the open world as beginner because you also have less standing points avaible
I legit just sold my duplicate mods for 14,000 endo, took about 5mins to select the ones to sell. This guy knows whats up fr
There needs to be a select all duplicates button fr
Today for stalker I got the War BP. First time I have gotten it in my time of YEARS of playing Warframe.
You dont need to travel to simaris to practice, its an option from the rank up menu
MR14...
Thank you hahaha
What dp you mean?
My single biggest piece of newbie advice is to find a clan who is willing to help someone new. When I first started, that's what helped me get past the killer beginning bits. And now, as one of the leaders of a rather large clan, I always help any newbies I come across as much as I can without outright making the game free for them
Can I join your clan? I'm Mr 2
@@unrecogn12ed send me your in-game name and I'll get a clan invite sent to you after work today!
are you happy for another noob to tag along. MR3 only been on for about a week
@@harrymcarthur8588 for sure! Send me your username including the # after the name and I'll send an invite next time I hop on
I can't stress enough to not follow the meta and just play what you want. I have so much fun trying new frames and experimenting. I cycle between so many frames. I just got Yareli and love her. I play Vauban all the time, and I have a fun Sevagoth build. It's way more fun just messing around rather than worrying about if my build is the best.
Actually as a neat trick for Simiris standing, just use an invisible warframe and go on a free roam while on Steel Path , on any of the lands and just scan enemies while invisible. You can net around 340+ simiris standing for EACH ENEMY. Easy nab 100 enemies so that would be 34,000 simiris standing. I was originally told to go on Zariman exterminate steel path ( which yes it nets around 430 per scan while invisib and no altert. So it is level based so if you level cap out a mission with enemies in the 1000s, each scan can literally soak you to max standing with simiris. 😏
No more annoying HUNT missions getting only 4k each. ✊
I do Kuva Fortress spy mission to max standing in one run. Not only do the enemies give the nice juicy standing, so do cameras and turrets. And a number of them 'respawn' (and can be re-scanned) when you double-back as part of the mission path.
@@Orosian5 but you still have to finish the mission. Otherwise if you fail you lose it all . With free roam you can leave whenever you want. Just jump back in the elevator and return whenever.
railjack are considerably and i mean by a lot more easier to farm than necramechs. Imma just admit that i hate mining. Im playing a damn looter shooter not minecraft. And finding the cave in deimos for the first time is just a pain in the ass. I got massive deja vu farming for the necramech from the time i farmed for gara.
I played practically religiously from the start of 2017 to the end of 2019, and I NEVER got the Despair to drop from the Stalker even once. Only ever got the one Hate, and like 4 Dreads.

I have only just started playing Warframe and I am already overwhelmed 😂
i used to- the odd time- sell weapons. but ever since Durviri arrived and gives you random weapons each run, ive started saving my weapons, even crappy weapons such as the Stug
Duviri is a great seller for forma, slots and potatoes... 😉
I collected them for fun, never sell anything,maybe mods for endo no credits
Starting anything new which already has a community built for it please ask for help, i know i did and i am really glad i did unbeknownst to me the person i asked for help was a founder and just like any other beginners in warframe i didn't knew what that mean either, but he helped me in a lot of way and to this day he is my friend on warframe and we play the game together, but remember some people can be bad or make you feel like you shouldn't be playing this game but trust me there are a lot of people who will genuinely help you. So please ask
That’s dope, I’m gonna try that. I just started warframe and there’s hella to do and learn. I’m learning from these comments and experiences. I gotta be more social FS
Such a great video! specially the thing about playing what you want. I remember I spent my starter plat on nidus instead of slots, and while I accept that it wasn't the "correct choice", I really loved nidus. He is the reason I started to really like Warframe. before playing nidus I enjoyed the game, but once I got nidus I started to do so much stuff! I used to think it was because nidus was stronger, but it really was juts because I was having more fun when playing, so without noticing it. I stopped playing for a while but I did get back to play it when twitch gave us nekros, I remember I always wanted nekros bc he was the "farm god" and when I tried it... it was ok.. but it just wasn't for me, glad I didn't really farm him bc i would have been so disappointed, I just never enjoyed the gameplay he has.
Press P to check your rewards during your missions. After 600 hours I've learnt that 😐
Iam on mobile
1500 hours when first learnt lol... I feel you
I was 2700 hours deep today when I learnt that. Thanks lol
DON'T spend nightwave credits until you need them or before it change.
Don't be like me who didn't know that to craft every prime frame you need NITAIN EXTRACT which the only reliable place you can get is nightwave so i had to wait more than a week and grind the mission to get some.
Warframe market is by far the most important thing for new players. Back then I played this game for months without knowing it even existed lol
I really had no idea abt the rolling over the objects Ty so much 😭
I still think you should do open world early. Under leveled open world is what actually got me hooked. So much chaotic fun.
I agree Plus there are a good amt of mods in open world bounties namely cetus that can help you out quite abit and some of these mods even stick with ya till the end game
It’s very much learning by doing🤣 as I learned earlier today, (I started playing yesterday) going in vastly underleveled and taking on random fun-looking enemies will get you killed😂 But i love the absolute chaos. I met some sort of huge stomping machine by Cetus and got annihilated because I couldn’t find the weak point
@@perfectlyok4608 I miss those days. Early days open world was the most fun for me in the game.
omfg thanks for the tip on practice the MR test i was not aware we could mr 9 is killing me
You wanna know something really cool. I've been watching Flo's vids for like a year. And every. single. time. I watch one. I learn something new. Appreciate the help as always.
i started like 20 days ago and have been trying to rush to the event and got stuck on the open world stuff, like the necramech build, and just started to learn how to mine too XD
what i learned from a friend was to grab the laser to farm minerals from fortuna and not cetus because its a better version
Durviri made my MR rank skyrocket after doing it a lot, (I also discovered my love for umbra Excalibur and inaros prime from duviri)
I’ve been addicted to Saryn since I can back to warframe. Stalker weapons I have tons of duos for
In my opinion I believe you need two copies of every mod within reason
of course a maxed one or as close to Max as possible without breaking the bank and an unranked one so when you forma your build you can still have a copy of the mod in the slot but it takes up less mod cap and if you're a fish brain like me I don't forget what my build is while doing multiple forma
I always make sure to have 5 of each, 2 for equipping and 3 spare for any friends that need those mods
0:36 only exception for this is the broken Sceptre. You'll need it aaaaaaany day now
Honestly for the necromech just sell a few items on the warframe market and buy it from the in game market when you get a 25% or more off your next purchase
Even after the rework, the grind is still terrible. You think youre done, only to be met with more grinding.
I got to mr13 last night and I am only just finding out about the arrangement of mods... wow. That's something. Thanks for that. Also, the necramech grind is... still worth crying over. It's not too bad, but myxostomata just won't show up. *cry* Great video, by the way. Helpful as always!
For some things you HAVE to use bait. I think myostomata is one of these. Check the wiki to confirm :)
If you have a decent amp or a friend with a necramech you could do to requim obelisks on deimos for fish parts
Not just bait but the right bait processed Vome if I'm not mistaken. Regular vome residue wont cut it. Be sure to go where the fish icons have popped up for a spawn swell. Higher chance of spawning/spawn rate.
@@NotoriousNickNorris Thanks. The only thing that had been holding me back was this. I had to grind standing with the entrati up to 'Friend' to be able to unlock Processed Vome Residue
@@jacob-2271 Thanks for the suggestion 😁
8 years. I spent 8 years before I got Hate... 100's of dread and despair... 1 hate... it is legit torture..
I WANT IT SO BAD
Made ans extra hate for incarnon eventually 😂
Is hate really that rare of a drop?
@@marcus2554 the thing is hate and despair with normal stalker is like 6% with shadow stalker it drops down to 3% because war and brokenwar also become drops. and dread remains 37%.
Congrats. I've played off and on since closed beta and I still don't have hate or war.
Came back from a hiatus, forgot most things about the game, got to a point with the weapon inventory restrictiveness and sold everything I had maxed except for my Soma and a couple things
This sadly included the Dread bow
My shame is right on the edge of manifesting corporeally as I listen to this
I would definitely add that you need two copies of each mod 11:30 one copy to max out the other copy rank 0 for theory crafting builds while your formaing it so when you reset back to rank zero it doesn't throw all your mods off your warframe
It's always cool to stumble across a south African youtuber
I sold dread, and then I wanted it back.... So I just crafted it again cause I have like 20something blueprints for it lmfao.
Dread is not really a big deal to seal, now hate and despair, do not sell those, I still don't have despair lmao.
Yeah bro, 2700 hours here and I dont have it either.
Though I've never actively farmed it
Great info. Thank for your time to share this
Thanks for the vid i new majority of the stuff but definitely gave me some tips i didn't know plus glad ya had the time stamps so i could look into what i didn't know or knew little about
My question is why is warframe have one of nicest communities ever
Because is a co-op game, you cannot sabotage or hinder any player, whereas, gtao the idea Is to sabotage and honder
In the bottom right of the mr test screen from your orbitor it will have a different botton for practiceing it
With Stalker weapons, the ONLY thing i have not gotten is the War BP. I used plat to buy the Stalker pack, so i got war that way.
I have always and forever will sell that damned dread blueprint because I have more dread blueprints than Vitality duplicates
those dmg numbers are so oddly satisfying😂
I'm so glad I finally decided to give this game a try. Now I'm already completely addicted in my first 2 weeks of playing. I've been having so much fun w/ Limbo's crazy abilities and then I just revert back to my maxed out Excalibur w/ his exalted blade ability for any missions that require absolutely crazy damage for endless mobs. My current Excal build/setup (mind you I'm still only a brand new MR-4 player) is already capable of doing 5,000 - 6,000 damage PER heavy strike... and each jumping ground pound maneuver w/ the heavy strike button does 2k damage a pop and those can be spammed one after another endlessly to stun lock and AOE entire mobs w/ 2k damage ground pounds every 2 seconds...
It's actually stupid how much damage my Excalibur can already do and I've only been learning about and playing this game for like 2-3 weeks now lol. Anyways, great game and Limbo is a hidden gem for solo play if you just watch a few youtube videos about how to best exploit his abilities, and of course also buy a skin for him so he actually feels cool to play without constantly staring at his doofy ass top hat lmao. Got my 3rd frame cooking in the oven right now and that's gonna be Vauban who can easily be farmed through the whole Nightwave event. I'm hoping I'll end up liking Vauban too, but if not then I'm already perfectly satisfied so far with Excalibur and Limbo. See you out there fellow Tennos!
Exact same bro. 2 weeks in. Except my 2nd warframe is Hydroid for easy farming endo more passively with his 4th ability. GGs. Feels good finding a free game that's got so much to offer like Warframe
I am so glad to hear that so many new players enjoy discovering new warframes and weapons and how to upgrade them to make them amazingly powerful.
I wish I could forget almost everything about Warframe and rediscover it bit by bit. It is such a journey.
Finally somthing useful for beginners. I already sold some of my mods, oops
Just did the rail jack tn.
The grind literally doesn't exist, Ive been pumping things out of my foundry and only had to stop in one mission for neural sensors, and another for control modules.
Nice didnt know the roll pick up
Ignore pressure point? Melee has been carrying me through the stsrchart along eith rhino and volt, and obtaining the xoris only made melee so much better
lol I made a mistake in the video referring to pressure point as a 10 rank mod when it’s not it’s a 5 rank mod not ignore the mod entirely. I made a woopsie
@@WarframeFlo oh dang, thought it was saying ignore it entirely like you meant not to say it. Sorry about the misunderstanding, thanks for the quick response :)
Just started this game im shocked its free and mesmerized by the graphics
Grind out factions. I usually skip over the factions but it's essential for necramech outside of buying it for plat.
😂 Flo preaching on Plat wastage… interesting 😂
We need to ask DE about how much plat he wasted🤣🤣
😂 all of it Hassan All of it 😂
He did it so you dont have to!
@@NotoriousNickNorris no he did it because he’s impatient 😂
Price check your rivens before fusing them for space
1699 hours here. and thanks for the roll over pickups hint :D
knew this video was valid as soon as #6 played
about point 1... i started playing warframe on console in 2014 and got multiple dispair but sold them because they weren't good and i'd got the mastery from them so was done. fast forward to today and dispair is an incarnon option and i've freshly merged my old mr 18 account with my mr 25 pc account and still don't have dispair but thankfully got and kept hate on pc.
DONT SELL YOUR STALKER WEAPONS!!!!!!
so keep doing what im doing... got it
Id recommend spending plat on mods that are tedious to farm, rather than forma, which you should get very easily via relics if u need to...
You Underestimate the Importance of *Forma* 😳
@@lookalike4805You underestimate how easy forma is to get.
@@lookalike4805 Not importance, obtainment, my luck is so shit that I'm more likely to get Forma out of relics than anything else, I have close to 40 blueprints and 10 built from either Nightwave or Twitch drops.
I... I bought a frame 😅 the revenant frame and silva & aegil (sword and shield). Yes I'm literally new to Warframe. Is there a video for the basics of wf?
I just did MR 9, decided to go banshee after failing the test twice.. threw on a throw melee and just did that. Lol
cool, i'll play what i want, so what frame are you playing? i need one with cak- uh, great skills and personality.
That's Yareli
I have over 2000 hours and I never knew about rolling over cell to pick it up 😵
2 things, as someone who uses guass with a sword as a pretty new player, the meta thing is funny because my friends yell at me to use a gun, and WHAT WARFRAME ARE YOU USING DURRING THAT PART OF THE VIDEO PLEEAAAASSEE THEY LOOK SO COOL
I mastered the Dread then sold it, but managed to get 4 blueprints of it. still didn’t get the kunai of his..
Got 22 dread blueprints before I got either the kunai or the scythe
After about 180 hours of playtime and 20 Dread BP later I finally got the hate and can finally use the damn incarnon for it
I recomend you for mr 9 using a throwable mele
Ok cool, so i wasnt the only one redoing MR9 like 2 or 3 times. Faced the practice like 3 times, after the 3rd failure, before going back and completing it.
Tip 4 woulda been vital 😭
6:22 another thing I want to add, is that ,most of the time, mods make the weapon. I am interested in unlocking the blender whip in the future, one reason is that it sounds absurd, the other one is because it sounds cool, and even thow it was the meta, and therefore probably nerfed, I ca simply mod it to make it good. Added aiming on switch is the epidemy of mid
I didn’t even know Stalker dropped more than 1 weapon. I have Dread and have been playing for 600 hours. I haven’t gotten a blueprint for his other two weapons
Seeing people obliterate level 150 enemies always reminds me of how much there is in this game
(Highest level ive faced is 110 from messing up my kuva lich and having them sent to the kuva fortress)
IKR it’s crazy, I just started this game and I’m a few days in. It’s gonna take a long time to reach his level.
"crazy engllish so fancy"
I am still very VERY new to the game and the thing that surprised me the most is the existance of Endo..... Because thats also my name
I tried playing this game, then after a quick UA-cam search and a couple vids on 2x speed I immediately realized “oh no thank you too much homework I’m too old for this sh***”
i despise roguelikes so i won't have access to the circuit. just the first few minutes of duviri was grinding my gears.
I just wanna know how to headshot the feet like Corpus
WarframeFlo: Play a Warframe you enjoy and the weapon that looks cool!
Me: *Makes a 0 health, 0 damage, full speed gauss build, takes a sword bigger then the jackal, a bow and some throwing knifes* You asked for it man.
Tip for your sanity: there is no report button on warframe unfortunately, so it’s better to cool off when you encounter a griefer.
OK. Technically, there is. But the whole process takes a long time and rather cumbersome that you leaving the match to have a break is better than actually reporting them.
Coming off side effects of gauss addictionto pressing 1
