Before doing any of this, make sure you farm for gear drop rate gear on your components it will tremendously increase your gains and decrease your time having to to do resource runs around the map, with item consumable drop rate and item drop rate on your sensor component it increases the amount you get and how often elites drop those coveted mats, im already crafting my 3rd catalyst and 2nd energy activator today! Get out there Descendants!
It took me 88 runs to get 1 Activator BP. Honestly I dont see myself playing this game a ton if a vital thing like this is soo hard to get. That pretty much forces you to only limit yourself to 2 or 1 descendant and 2 or 1 gun aswell. Makes the game really boring
looter shooters aren't your game then. And I clear ran this entire story without using my activator or module catalyst to save for new descendant. its not vital, it just makes you more op
The grind to get the BP is really bad. Saying looter shooters aren't for him means you never played any other looter shooters if you think 3% is acceptable. All it takes is for a mass majority to call it quits with TFD and this game will sink. At least the devs listen and I'm sure Nexon will make grinding them even easier.
@@dklyokosanctumHeavily disagree. Saying that looter shooters aren’t for them just because they don’t like how TFD handles grinding is facetious and disingenuous. Most other looter shooters either offer trading, the ability buy the item with premium currency earned in game, or have an easier grind. Also the Energy Activators are 100% vital if you are planning to tackle any bosses in Hard Mode. Being able to increase your slots and add more mods/mod upgrades will turn an unbeatable boss into a boss you might only have a little trouble with.

Im glad that TFD will be adding trading, events, pets and everything else but is it in the game right now? Most people would rather go and play another type of looter shooter with those changes already implemented than wait for TFD to add QoL changes that haven’t even been given a date or timeframe yet. No one is saying they want the item to be guaranteed they are saying that the rate of the drops are far too low with no other way to get the item than to outright buy it with real money. I feel that you might have also used the wrong genre because MMOs are heavily RNG dependent. MMOs also offer trading and buying things with in game currency by the way. Also all RNG isn’t good RNG. Nexon themselves even went to court and lost because of how “RNG” they made cubes in Maplestory.
PRO TIP! If you are on PC press "Tab" to use your ecive. The same thing works on console I just dont know what button it is. Ping it over and over while running around, if you hear a "Ding" or "ping" like sound, follow it. Make sure there's no dialog going on though or it wont ping you. Once you follow that sound you'll find the vaults. Its super easy because the sound comes from the vault so if its above you or below you it will sound like so.
Idk if this has been commented yet but it's been discovered at wave 21 in defend albion resources in echo swamp you have a chance to get a prebuilt Crystallization catalyst. You should do a video on that next to bring more awareness to it.

I have found to efficiently do it, my rule is if its not already possible, is if it's 1:30 or below I wait.

I have found after doing the same teleport they will start disconnecting you on the loading screen, if you do the same pattern too many times. However I ran through the doors for 2 hours and didn't have the problem it was only when I was map tping. So I think by changing your pattern every so often you can avoid my issue.

If they want this game to be another warframe. They can't make the grind tediously harder. If the catalyst and activators rng was like warframes. Catalyst would be in the 38% drop rate spots.

The grind is not actually that bad imo. You just need to find the right descendant to use first to help you with the missions. It's super easy right now to get the activators and catalyst, and my goal is to get the ultimate version of descendants and as well as weapons. The game make look terrible but once you unlock the hard mode and create a farming route, it's super easy. I'm not saying that it will be fast, but this type of game is not meant to be played for a couple of days and be satisfied with the story. It's a looter shooter, and I like the genre because there's are things to do after the campaign, and it will keep better (fingers crossed) once the developer will include decent future updates.
@thegrindshack Yeah I get it's supposed to take time. I'm MR 20 in warframe. That's why I'm annoyed. In warframe I can always unlock all the slots on my characters and weapons. The "activators" and "catalyst" of that game are way more readily available at a m7ch higher drop rate. I like the game. Just don't think it should be such a hard decision on what characters I want to max. "If I use this activator on my weapon. I may have to wait a week to get another drop or buy one" shouldn't be a thought process to me. I wanna try everything
A think a lot of people are gonna burn out soon if they don’t adjust drop rates and some of the obnoxious cosmetic related issues. If you aren’t being rewarded for your time you will just move on. Not everyone runs to swipe their wallet.
I did a man vs energy activator farm today (grind until the blueprint drops) I did normal grave walker blast.. farmed up like 30 amorphous materials and it dropped on the 4th kill lol
Cooldown doesn't reset, you just move to another world where maybe just maybe nobody has done it. But even in Private mode, for some reason, they go on cooldown sometimes on their own like someone is doing them...
You need to select a different map, then turn it private, then teleport there. In other words, open up the local map, then the world map (so you can see other regions), select a different region, click the toggle for public/private, then go to the region. Do note, if you are in a group, then group state changes like someone crashing will open up that specific lobby to the public again.
Very timely, i just started grinding today. I already had 2 of the blueprint codes and all of the Low Carbon Activators. I have Hagios unlocked but haven't set foot in there yet as I've been using Chrystalization Catalysts and leveling Gley a lot. Right now I'm farming the Conductive Metallic Coils as a mission monster drop in Vespers Normal mode on an extermination mission. Its slow but each run only takes about 1:30 to complete so its easy and mindless. The other two I'll have to grind out soon!
Running on 60k def and 23 hp atm. 2 catalyst but planning to finally get him the energy activator once done crafting. I'll update the build for ajax don't worry but to give you some details, I remove shield module then added overwhelming HP + stim accelerant module to increase health to insanity. It also helps increase def and while I don't need it, I'll still take it lol.
It's only the fully built item, and it's for $25 worth of premium currency, if you buy the minimum amount of currency required. If you wanted to 'minimize' the cost of individual reactors, you can get them as cheaply as $20.87 (more accurately $20.869) if you buy the $100 currency pack 24 times to get 138000 currency and purchase 115 reactors. Anything other than that is more expensive per reactor.
15 minutes? The waiting time of each outpost is only 5 minutes when you do not use the private lobby trick. Why did your game got to 15 minutes timer? lol
@@thegrindshack Everytime I do the fast travel and go back the outpost A,B and C destroy themselves and says I have to wait 15 minutes on private. I wait 15 min and it gets destroyed again cant do it. I have restarted the game and still happens
It's not on the shop exactly. If you upgrade your descendant or weapon but you have no activator, then it will prompt you to a screen wherein you can buy the activator for 1200 caliber.
a grind explicitly designed to be tedious and unfun so people feel pushed into paying for them instead back in 2010s this might have worked these days, however, this will cause more people to quit than to pay. mostly because most people cannot afford to become whales
I spent 4 days straight grinding for ult gley and didn't get a single piece like I am sorry but the drop rate are bad. Don't care what people say that shouldn't happen I shouldn't feel defeated grinding when the game has amazing game play and tons of potential
you can get the magister lab down to like 1:40-2m with a bunny. Just need enough for infinite 3 and then a bunch of mp stuff for constant speed and a bit of spawn knowledge.
@@Jayyrains ah I see, I can get my 2 to last indefinitely, do I need to just apply skill cooldowns to make #3 last indefinitely? Cause if so that’s probably what I’m missing I assume
FYI guys, if you have a suped up Bunny, the Magister's Lab can take from 1:30 seconds to 2:30 seconds depending on your energy economy... the fastest I've run it was 1:40 something seconds I keep falling off the map each time so you can definitely make it faster if you're super sweaty accurate 😅
Honestly none of these were a problem to me i was just hoping to see a better way to farm the blueprint but oh well and i think using Sharen is completely useless and most of the outpost don't even work properly for hacking (which forced me to farm waves for Jayber might i add) seriously might sell her to make space or just the fact i don't like her at all.
the harder outposts respawn indefinitely and you have to level sharen up to lvl 28 for lvl 4 invis and slap some duration mods on for at least 12 secs and strong mentality for cd- to get 2 generators and then hide then get the other 2 and kill the boss. You hide by hugging the outside of the walls while waiting for cd on invis.
You know what? You literally just said it and i lowkey couldn't agree more with you even if i would. Unless they will eventually consider to pump up in the future these scummy and blatantly p2w drop rates for essential materials like the forma thingy and energy activator (which i highly doubt knowing how Nexon operates), then i'll gladly drop this watered down cash grab clone of Warframe in not even a week i'm trying it out. Despite how i like the gameplay as it feels like a breath of fresh air compared to Warframe, games that locks on purpose behind a paywall essential upgrading materials for the game progression are simply disgusting.

I did a man vs energy activator farm today (grind until the blueprint drops) I did normal grave walker blast.. farmed up like 30 amorphous materials and it dropped on the 4th kill lol
I farmed 41 002 patterns for grave walker and got 3 activator BP from those 41 patterns.
The 3% blueprint is ridiculous
I’m done until it’s changed.
You need these to play high level missions
Resetting the timer doesn't work anymore for the recon mission sadly
Actually it works randomly
you could just edit unless your on apple device then it sucks cant edit
Farming Enzo is a pain, standing there like a dummy for 2 min each wave
Cooldown doesn't reset, you just move to another world where maybe just maybe nobody has done it. But even in Private mode, for some reason, they go on cooldown sometimes on their own like someone is doing them...
me too
How do you put your open world on private i haven't been able to find the setting on ps5
From albion press g then select the zone and press that public button to turn it to private.
You need to select a different map, then turn it private, then teleport there.
In other words, open up the local map, then the world map (so you can see other regions), select a different region, click the toggle for public/private, then go to the region.
Do note, if you are in a group, then group state changes like someone crashing will open up that specific lobby to the public again.
On the area map on the top left, there's a option to switch the difficulty and state of the instance
Very timely, i just started grinding today. I already had 2 of the blueprint codes and all of the Low Carbon Activators. I have Hagios unlocked but haven't set foot in there yet as I've been using Chrystalization Catalysts and leveling Gley a lot.
Right now I'm farming the Conductive Metallic Coils as a mission monster drop in Vespers Normal mode on an extermination mission. Its slow but each run only takes about 1:30 to complete so its easy and mindless.
The other two I'll have to grind out soon!
What is your new build for Ajax?
Running on 60k def and 23 hp atm. 2 catalyst but planning to finally get him the energy activator once done crafting. I'll update the build for ajax don't worry but to give you some details, I remove shield module then added overwhelming HP + stim accelerant module to increase health to insanity. It also helps increase def and while I don't need it, I'll still take it lol.
im now at 136k Defense for Ultimate Ajax :) @@thegrindshack
im now at 136k defense for Ultimate Ajax :)@@thegrindshack
oh dayumm
tyvm for this
got two blueprints in 10 runs (the 6% hard death bride)
Damn you're so lucky bro.
@@torpedosten6981 I haven't even been able to clear hanged man
@@Jurassicpoop432 now i farmed all materials for ultimate lepic in 4-6hours total xd
@@torpedosten6981 I finally was able to clear hanged man. I can finally farm for ultimates.
You can buy the blueprint on the shop???
Not the blueprint but a fully built reactor for 1200 caliber I think?
It's only the fully built item, and it's for $25 worth of premium currency, if you buy the minimum amount of currency required. If you wanted to 'minimize' the cost of individual reactors, you can get them as cheaply as $20.87 (more accurately $20.869) if you buy the $100 currency pack 24 times to get 138000 currency and purchase 115 reactors. Anything other than that is more expensive per reactor.
That outpost I can't even do one i go to that area and says wait 15min but nothing shows up
15 minutes? The waiting time of each outpost is only 5 minutes when you do not use the private lobby trick. Why did your game got to 15 minutes timer? lol
@@thegrindshack Everytime I do the fast travel and go back the outpost A,B and C destroy themselves and says I have to wait 15 minutes on private. I wait 15 min and it gets destroyed again cant do it. I have restarted the game and still happens
These vaults are a pain to open, I basically wasted 3 precise code breakers because I fcked up the qte 😡
There is nothing fast about activators. Lol. It’s a long grind getting the materials then a long time in the oven. Lol
you can get all the mats in 30 mins minus the blue prints
Best way to farm energy activator is just to farm a character or weapon cause u have a higher chance of getting a EA than what u want to get.
yep farmed enzo got 1 activator from fusion reactor
the other stuff is easy the blue print is the most annoying 3% and 6%
Gonna get to that right after i finish my hellish farm for enzo... been at it for 2 days now for a 38% drop stabiliser.... this games hates me lol
Didnt see a energy activator in the shop?
It's not on the shop exactly. If you upgrade your descendant or weapon but you have no activator, then it will prompt you to a screen wherein you can buy the activator for 1200 caliber.
@@thegrindshack oh ... i see. Oh no. Must hold back my wallet. I thought i was saved from using money here :D
Well heavy grind for those parts...
a grind explicitly designed to be tedious and unfun so people feel pushed into paying for them instead
back in 2010s this might have worked
these days, however, this will cause more people to quit than to pay. mostly because most people cannot afford to become whales
I have 4 catalysts saved up, do I use them on normal bunny or grind for ultimate 😢
the grind is really long so if u have spares i think u should
@@Kylisme-pj9gs that's what I'm thinking 🙏
ultimates only unless you really need a build on normal variants
Ultimate will be good but the grind will be tedious.
The real question is, by the time you grind ultimate, how many catalysts will you have ? Then delegate them.
02:38 I see you're using nvidia recorder too 😃👍
It's annoying sometimes because it doesn't record and I need to restart the game.
@@thegrindshack Yes, there is a problem with The First Descendant.
I spent 4 days straight grinding for ult gley and didn't get a single piece like I am sorry but the drop rate are bad. Don't care what people say that shouldn't happen I shouldn't feel defeated grinding when the game has amazing game play and tons of potential
you can get the magister lab down to like 1:40-2m with a bunny. Just need enough for infinite 3 and then a bunch of mp stuff for constant speed and a bit of spawn knowledge.
What is infinite 3? A module? I’m trying to build my bunny. She’s good but definitely not max
Thays slow i do it in just over a min on valby
@@zBetrApex3 as in third ability. You can make both the 2nd and 3rd ability last infinitely
@@CrooKdLetterJ I'd like to see that it's that time 1 hitting spawns while moving
@@Jayyrains ah I see, I can get my 2 to last indefinitely, do I need to just apply skill cooldowns to make #3 last indefinitely? Cause if so that’s probably what I’m missing I assume
This man don’t miss 😮💨
FYI guys, if you have a suped up Bunny, the Magister's Lab can take from 1:30 seconds to 2:30 seconds depending on your energy economy... the fastest I've run it was 1:40 something seconds I keep falling off the map each time so you can definitely make it faster if you're super sweaty accurate 😅
I know they lying about the smithereens parts drop rates, whenever i can im getting parts for that ass weapon
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Why do u use the same song on every video
I seriously waisted my whole day yesterday and you say I can skip the outpost timer
Honestly none of these were a problem to me i was just hoping to see a better way to farm the blueprint but oh well and i think using Sharen is completely useless and most of the outpost don't even work properly for hacking (which forced me to farm waves for Jayber might i add) seriously might sell her to make space or just the fact i don't like her at all.
the harder outposts respawn indefinitely and you have to level sharen up to lvl 28 for lvl 4 invis and slap some duration mods on for at least 12 secs and strong mentality for cd- to get 2 generators and then hide then get the other 2 and kill the boss. You hide by hugging the outside of the walls while waiting for cd on invis.
3 % for essential items? Jfc the drop rates are gonna kill this game
You know what? You literally just said it and i lowkey couldn't agree more with you even if i would.
Unless they will eventually consider to pump up in the future these scummy and blatantly p2w drop rates for essential materials like the forma thingy and energy activator (which i highly doubt knowing how Nexon operates), then i'll gladly drop this watered down cash grab clone of Warframe in not even a week i'm trying it out.
Despite how i like the gameplay as it feels like a breath of fresh air compared to Warframe, games that locks on purpose behind a paywall essential upgrading materials for the game progression are simply disgusting.
Lil bro grinding on normal for end game items lol
Buncha tiktok gamers if you don't get your win in 30 seconds or less you whine. It's a game that is meant to be played over months. jfc go play hello kitty adventure or something 😂
It hasn't killed Warframe.
You dont need that many realisticly… maybe 2 or 3 for your fav descendant and prob 2-3 for the guns you use. You get 2 for free from campaign
I’m so surprised you cant pay cash for this item 😮
Are you joking or not? You can buy one for $25 a Activator.
@@AdamThurston85 lol thought I missed it. I was like no way this item isn’t in the shop it’s op as shit. Ain’t guna buy it but was surprised I didn’t see it.
Wish ultimate weapons were on the shop too. I work a lot and man this afterglow sniper is taking me forever. And you need like 5 copies to negate the negative stats 😭
This game needs to get fixed, I’ve played wf and destiny for years and never experienced this pain
bro WF did this first and not much better lmao. Only thing worse is microtransactions.
🤣🤣🤣very Easy 😢 you are max power ❤ my long farm eternity 😅😅 good morning farming 😅👍🫶💖
No more warframe? 😢
The preseason battle pass is garbage ... why they didnt include a single important material. Even in bonus shop.
It wouldn't kill to give at least 1 activator and one crystallization cstaclyst.
Once you get enzo its not too bad really just farm the anamorphos alot and open as many as you can and the blueprint drop occasionally had 3 now in abour 4 days id say so not too bad
first.. ;)
Okay with your level, idk why you collected the stuff gravewalker dropped lol
Just the fastest grind for those activator bro.
@@thegrindshack I know I mean the lvl 10ish stuff he dropped, ran in circle to get them when could ignore them, just found it amusing
He did it for the kuiper after selling them every bit helps
First you have to make it through Pyromaniac in normal mode
Hah, Pyro is a jobber compared to Hanged Man.
@@CEnow You can burn Hanged Man down without touching its mechanics.
easy, except for the blueprints. I make 50+ grave walkers every day...I've gotten 2! so far😡😡😡
sometimes its none. Very depressing that one run was but next run got me 3 so theres perhaps an average.
ggez
Please recommend sharen, I'm so tired of everyone running to the outpost and just breaking them
Start your own private lobby and stop crying imo
Fantastic guide
Too much noob farm this missions i write i the chat im gonna infiltrate the outpost 2 seconde after the noob shoot everywhere -_-
Is this AI voice?
Yea
It’s not the grind it’s the drop rate ..it’s ass
The fact that half of y’all really think warframes drop rates are better is funny asf🤡
Im glad the drop chance is low its a massive boost to power snd you csn get them psssivley while going fir other things first.
sometimes i just want to give up this garbage grind fest is like bdo all over again but 10 times worse you gotta run around everywhere
Well BDO isn't a looter shooter so
F this game!!!
For all of you complaining about the drop rates, this game ain't for you. Go play something else.
You have failed us warframe kin
Prestiging bunny tho 🤣🤣🤣 terrible move noob
ah first descendant the only game who made you play warframe and delete this trash !
no joke, after 1h of warframe i can't come back to trash descendant. No more bullshit. This game is awful.
Good, stay there and stop trashing a game you've barely played 😁
