it is actually painful to look at him shooting the Soma at Umbra with no effect...but not shooting his void beam because the operator dies....LUL :D and reading objectives is for noobs
Funny thing too is that the Mimics are the easiest of the sentient drones to kill and not die to because they keep their distance and don't have area attacks. And he still found ways to get killed.
Ice Tea Foot also listening to ordis telling you to use void blast already is for noobs
Button Blamer i feel it went better than to other quests at least
the copy pasta
Second Dream: The warframe saves the operator.
War Within: The operator saves the warframe.
Sacrifice: Operator and Warframe work together.
God DE great little detail.
^
Next episode: Operator drinks tea with warframe saving nothing as clem destroys the sentient empire saving humanity and ascends to become the god king.
Kinda Venty you sir deserve to work with DE. That story will get a noble award
Don't forget:
Second Dream: "This is who you are."
Sacrifice: "This is what I am."
Incredible writing and foresight from the devs. It's simple, cliché, and obvious when you think about it, but somehow they make it poignant.
And in all 3 times we get attacked on our safety bubble
looks like your puzzle-solving skills are as fast as your internet
I solved most of the puzzles and found the scannable stuff pretty quickly, but I could not play Komi to save my life (or rather, Umbra's desendants' lives). And yet here's Ralph, kicking Ballas's ass at Komi without losing a single stone until he was forced to.
Connor
It took me ten minets to find the musical instrument.
I personally found the scanning part relatively simple (I went straight into the quest without changing my setup so I had my Helios Prime with me, it just auto-scanned everything). I believe he did say it's been a while since he played (from the looks of it, when Plains of Eidolon hit). And in his defense, he was absolutely slaying it at the Komi
The vitruvian took me ages to find, it's so small and it only glows in the scanner if it is in line of sight
Pedro Fellipe your scanner beeps if you’re looking in the direction of something scannable. At that point it’s just a game of hot and cold
1:14:59
This is the part that sold me on this quest.
It made Umbra feel like an actual person, more than just a warframe we use like a suit.
reza choudhury what’s the soundtrack from 1:16:03 to 1:16:32
smiles from juran
well i think
Actually became a umbra main cuz i liked this story so much
@@FBI-mi3tr i can see why i wish umbra forma brought the warframe to life....
It saddened me that he didn't notice that Umbra fights along side you during transference. Honestly one of the coolest moments for me.
Edit: he noticed yay!
Desmond Moralis
He does eventually in the last mission.
Yeah, I was yelling at my screen "Look at Umbra dammit!"
He did though . He said he likes that it shoots things while he's operator
Yeah, but only in the second mission. When you realize it during the fight with the sentients right after bonding with Umbra is so much more awesome.
Unfortunately I noticed only after the quest ended during a defense mission, but I still screamed at my screen "THAT'S SO FUCKING COOL"
It IS space mom. In the natah quest its already said that Lotus/Natah is the daughter of hunhow. Hunhow is a sentient.
Is there some link between Ballas and Hunhow? Like during the flashbacks the voice from Ballas turned into something similar to Hunhow.
Ballas plotted with Hunhow to destroy the Orokins. The plans you discovered in this quest was information given to Hunhow by Ballas.
The Orokin killed Ballas' waifu, so he sent in the Sentients to kill them.
He collaborated with Hunhow in secret, plotting both the downfall of the Orokin and the Tenno; thats (presumably) how Hunhow found out about the Tenno's true weakness.
As for the glowing eyes, thats just him speaking to the Dax Soldier through his transference bolt, it seems to allow some kind of telepathic communication
One of the theories is that Margulis and Natah struck a deal, Margulis to escape her death and Natah to be able to have children (the Tenno) and that they together form the personality we know as the Lotus.
I'm sure her helmet is part of the puzzle as well but I fear we'll have to wait a good while before we get the next chunk of story - which might not give us those answers just yet either. :/
sentient killing 101
step 1: equip Excal
step 2: press 2
step 3: press 4 and spam melee (if this doesn't work fast enough, also channel melee attacks for added damage)
step 4: murder everything
....the freaking SECOND you see Umbra's eye i got a freaking advertisement.
god i hate the timing youtube has.
Skill up, long story short, spoilers for others:
The helminth virus (controlled strain of the infested) was used to create the warframes, forcefully or voluntarily injected into people, often dax or low ranking potential candidates of the orokin empire. The infection physically transformed them into what they are as frames, like umbra, the different being that umbra is like a prototype that went wrong, all umbra apparently are. Other frames are the standard, and primes are the perfected or goal of what they're meant to be. Another difference being that our frames don't have consciousness, either existent or awake, whichever the case umbra is a case where the frame retains it's memories and brain activity.
Side note it's said that the infested, when they mutate you, your brain may still, and I quote a youtuber "be in tact". This is such a case that proves that theory however, with umbra having control over his body, despite being driven mad.
Hence the worm queen calls our frames infested puppets and the infested wonder why we attack our own
This is mostly correct, though it should be noted that Alad V does say that the internal parts of a Warframe shouldn't really work. IIRC, he said that it doesn't quite tick. Alad V is notable for being a researcher into the infected and having infected himself at some point (did he cure that? Alad's timeline is all janky).
+Stephen Jones (Pikeax) it doesent tick for him because normal frames lack sentience so he was thinking how do those work if they lack the necesary senses to move on their own without the operator, i dont think he even knows that operators/tenno exist i think he considers all warframes as,, bio drones"
Stephen Jones yes he cured it. I haven't done the quest myself but I think after it we've basically helped him
Thanks for clearing up my confusion.
FYI, the non-prime frames we have weren't around during the orokin empire, only umbras and primes. The non-primes were relatively modern attempts to recreate the orokin's primes but could not compare to their work. That's why we get prime shit from the remnants of the empire in the relics and stuff.
A guide how to kill "Those things"
quick disclaimer : I will be spoiling major events from second dream and war within so please if you haven't played those quests don't read this ! And English is not my mother tongue so correct me if I have failed to explain myself.
How we used to fight sentients in the dark age (before the war within):
The problem with sentients is that they adapt to your damage, which is indicated by a red symbol over their health bar, because of that they will only receive a minor fraction of the damage your current gun has. Solutions were modding for different elemental types on your secondary, primary and melee and switching your weapon when you realised the sentient was only taking 5 damage per shot/hit. Another option was using mesa or Excalibur both have tools to deal with sentients. For instance Excalibur can blind them with his second ability which will stun them and amplify your melee damage by a ridiculous amount. Mesa on the other hand has her peacemaker ability which will destroy any foolish sentient around her.
After the war within :
There is only one thing sentients can't`t adapt to and that`s the void and with introduction the new abilities for our operator the killing of sentients was quite easy. You only need to hit them with the void beam and all of their stocked up resistances are gone (same thing goes for shadow stalker) this way your allowed to bring any frame and or weapon for the fight against them. Just jump out hit them with the beam and you can continue to listen to the magnificent sound of your weapon.
With Excalibur Umbra:
Now we not only got mods that amplify our damage and resistances against the sentients we also got a frame that has the ability to strip the resistances of sentients. With the second ability of Excalibur Umbra you are no longer forced to use your operator he can provide the same effect whilst still increasing his melee damage to blinded enemies.
That should sum it up if I have missed any detail please add it and thank you for reading.
It is a fantastic experience following you on your journey skill up keep up the good work and a nice day for everyone
wolfimeme we are literally watching the sacrifice quest why would we care about spoilers from 3-2 years ago
There are people who still havent done sacrifice like me
69th like plz nobody move it
i lol that the first thing you do after getting umbra is fashionframe it. definitely have your priority straight there, tenno.
He is a man of culture
Man of culture indeed
Did the exact same thing. No regrets. =p
yes very much Guilty of that too...True Tenno know that Frame has to look good! WE Did an Umbra Fashon Dance Party after many got done with quest yesterday Afternoon (PS4 just released Sacrifice) and Not two looked alike
I kept him the way he was and just got him ready to rumble.
tfw skillup only died to umbra 5 times with mote amp, no focus and arcanes
does that mean everyone else who died dozens of times just suck >_>
Twilight053 Maybe? xD
I know right, and people keep calling him arse XD
Yea that is true but I cleared those mimics out with the unmoded Umbera in under 20 seconds
I died like 30. I thought it was turning into Dark Souls
Twilight053 i'm gonna be blunt skill up fucking sucked in this playthrough. It was frustrating to watch him playthrough the thing because of how much he just flat out sucked. Why didn't he radial howl and exalted blade the sentients? Why didn't he use primarily radiation damage against the sentients. How on earth did he not know which button was void blast? Why didn't he transfer out of his warframe when he was nearly dead? So many areas that he lacked even the fundamental mechanics of warframe. I don't hate the guy but i do feel the need to criticize his lack of skills in so many basic things. I still love his personality and his reviews but he honestly sucks in his playthroughs.
Operators are actually really fun once you spend the time to unlock all of their focus passives. And get a better amp, that's pretty important too.
Nothing's really fun in Warframe until you dig your heels in and invest some time into fiddling around with the mechanics.
That's true about quite a few things.
I enjoyed the operator from the start, but from what I hear, many others didnt. But as I unlocked the tennos power it just made that "angsty teenager" quite useful and even more fun. The extra energy pool, the faster speed(especially void dash speed), the extra health. It feels natural to me, and switching to my operator, at least to me, never feels like its forced or a hassle to deal with
MrSeals1000 before the changes to focus and the operator i pretty much never used my operator
Chez Green with the right setup you can run sortie missions with your operator even now. I dont think that needs many improvements, going higher than that is for frames. Damage wise I think amps are in a good spot, now more versatility would be nice
And just to think... THIS IS ALL FREE!
I really enjoyed you videos Skill Up, keep it up!
Rhino Prime = serious business Prime
Soma Prime = 3 forma pseudo mini-gun
Aklex Prime = "I like it and its fun" - Skill Up
Orthos Prime = aka Blender Prime
When SkillUp didn't see the part about Howl removing Sentient resistance, I felt that
When i started building Umbra and saw that it was just 10 seconds i said to myself “this is too easy” and then i equipped it and it grabbed the operators neck. Like i said too easy
but hey, a free max warframe
With two powerful exclusive set mods, of a new polarity even!
Operator... I am just a bug addled cephalon but, if you ever need to talk...
ORDIS WOULD BE HAPPY TO HEAR HOW DEPPRESSED YOU ARE!
YAY!
You got most of it right. These quests depend on your knowledge of lore and previous quests, it adds a lot more impact to them. A lot of these things might not make any sense otherwise (like, the fact that Ballas is not just some dude, but an Orokin Executor, who Dax were and such).
If I was a returning player, I'd probably watch all StallordD's stuff prior to the newest quest, that'd be a good place to start.
Question. As someone who has another game to keep me occupied daily, I've wanted to get into Warframe, but it seems a bit too complicated and grindy as a side-game to get into (don't get me wrong, both good qualities that give the game depth, I just don't have enough time for another right now). Is there a good YT channel to watch play-throughs of the important missions? I hear good things about some of the later missions, but I will not get to experience those in the near future first hand.
Stenbox any warframe partnered youtuber usually made videos of doing the major quests, but i will say that warframe's lore is better if you experience it first hand
As for the grind it would be easier if you have a friend who has played the game and willing to carry you to the point where the lore starts to be a major part of the game
Thanks for the info. I do not in fact have any friends playing Warframe, it's one of the main reasons I did not get past 3-4 hours in it. I realize there are details in every mission that build to the cinematic quests, I am just realistic that I will not get to dedicate enough time to this game in the next 12-18 months. Who is your favorite Warframe UA-camr to check out?
Stenbox probably dadefuye for lore theories, quite shallow for shitposting, originalwickedfun or tactical potato for general updates and info, brozime for build tips, DKdiamantes also does lore theories but i haven't watch his channel as much as the other
Stenbox there is also a channel named xayl that actually managed to explain warframe lore and factions if you want a condensed simplified explanation to the lore
Well, two things!
1- Idk if you understand the whole lore
2-I'll explain the whole lore for YOU, since you done all quests!! =D
Well... let's go then.
Okay, WHO ARE THE OROKIN?
Well, we can say they where normal humans, but then they discovered the imortality, and then it start the whole orokin empire, the Orokin Empire was an ancient civilization that ruled over the Origin System in the distant past. During what was known as the Orokin Era, they built technological masterpieces that surpass even present day technology while exercising complete dominion over the known world. Although details about the Orokin are scarce, they are almost entirely responsible for the current state of the Origin System
Well, so they ruled over the origin system, during loooooooong centuries, until the resources of all planets almost gone extinct! so they NEED a new system, or a new way to take resources, they discovered the TAU, so they created the SENTIENTS, orokin terraformers, they where built to construct those "terminals" like you do in the origin system, but these ones where made to travel much far away! the Orokin crafted them with the ability to adapt to any sort of damage that they would encounter as well as the ability to replicate from damaged components, however the Void was "poison" to them, later revealed to interfere with their adaptation and replication. Theoretically, this would have left them stranded in the Tau system once they had finished their purpose.
While that was happening, the ship know as ZARIMAN TEN ZERO, was send to the void, they where people send to colonize TAU (as far as i know), until the "accident" happened
However, the sentience they had gained also caused them to realize that their creators would lay waste to the Tau system as they did with Earth, and thus they returned to the Origin system to wage war with the Orokin. With their advanced adaptability they were taking over the most sophisticated Orokin technology, and gradually gaining powerful resistances even to the most advanced of Orokin weaponry.
In desperation the Orokin utilized the survivors of the Zariman Ten-Zero incident, to whom the Void had gifted immense power, to fight back against the Sentient threat. They were trained in the old ways of battle and given conduits that could withstand, channel and amplify their power were created. With the use of the Tenno, the Orokin managed to turn the tide of battle.
Well, as you see in THE SACRIFICE, the warframes are made by infestating people (in the Umbra's case, Dax soldiers) with the HELMINTH infestation (since EVERY other infestation has turn back on the Orokins), but their minds are still in chaos, and only the TENNO could make the perfect transference, overcoming the madness.
However, the Orokin were betrayed by Ballas, who had grown vengeful over the death of his beloved Margulis. Using information provided to him by Ballas, Hunhow sent his daughter Natah, under a human appearance, to serve as a mole within the Origin System. She would destroy the Empire from within and exterminate the Tenno, Natah completed Hunhow's main objective with the purge of the Orokin but she could not bring herself to kill the Tenno. Instead, Natah chose to adopt them as her own children, as her human predecessor, Margulis, had done before. She hid the Reservoir, the Tenno's only weakness, in the Void, keeping it safe from the retaliation of the Sentient. Denying her old identity, Natah took the name of the flower most beloved by Margulis, the Lotus, and became the Tenno's custodian.
After the Orokins murder Margulis, the Tenno also became vengeful, they kill most of the orokins in a giant ""riot", as Alad V says on Second Dream, we literally wipe out an ENTIRE civilization!
well, about Warframes, orokins, and sentients, i think this is all! =D
Man thank you for the explanation, the quests do a kind of bad work at explaining stuff since you're completing objectives while hearing them talk, so is hard to keep up with what they're saying, at least they are getting better at it.
No problem! =D
I might dispute a bit of the timing on Margulis's execution, but other than that you really put this down efficiently.
As I understand it, Margulis was executed during or before The Old War with the Sentients. Lotus coordinated the destruction of the Orokin, using that as an emotional pivot point to motivate the Tenno to do so. The Tenno struck during the victory celebration and before going into stasis, for a period of time Tenno struck targets during the collapse of the Oroking empire. Lotus put Lua into the void to make it basically impossible to attack, and we can infer that happened during the War, since Ballas gave that location away to Hunhow, enabling Hunhow to give them to Stalker, the events of Second Dream are thus Ballas's fault.
I would like to point out a small little detail that some people overlook. The reason we're called Tenno is because we're all survivors from Zariman Ten Zero. Ten 0. Ten-O. Tenno.
Most warframes were/are made from dead orokin bodies where as Umbra was created by infesting a dax soldier who wanted to tell the Masters of the Orokin Empite that Ballas and Hunhow work together.
Umbra understands the Orokin and the Tau system way better than us.
I’m even surprised there’s actually a place in Australia where you can get 40 up, I’ve heard nothing but horror stories about your upload speeds.
Salim B. Its called NBN or cable. Everything else in australia is trash
i get about 10 and i even go wtf
It's true! I live in the capital of south Australia and I barely get 2 up!
Even the nbn is not great. Its plans were downgraded by a new government prior to implementation - existing copper wiring (used for analogue telephones and dialup internet/DSL) was kept from node to point (home) instead of the original plan to run fibre. I believe there's been an amendment to now run fibre from node to curb (then copper to home) but that's only for new installations. Too bad for anywhere that's already been done (like where I live).
The nbn may be great for rural areas but for metro it was a shambled mis-spending of money. In terms of the tech, wireless technologies such as 4G/5G have already made the nbn obsolete. That said, mobile internet is still more costly and 5G is not fully operational here yet.
Cos you live in Adelaide Shemasuuu, that's why
You ended up getting Astral Twilight to drop from the second mission you did, and that stance has an absurdly low drop rate. Congrats SkillUp

I know this video is over 3 years old, but I just wanna say this
Umbra's default skin and color palette are already perfect. In my opinion, he is the coolest looking Warframe of them all
Truee
Why did you start the video in a random area in the plains unlike literally every single warframe youtuber in existence who are always starting the video in the ship. I am absolutely triggered by this, how could you even think this was remotely okay? Disliked, unsubbed and reported for terrorism.
(also btw you can get the music by scanning pink cephalon fragments. get the simaris infinite scanner it helps)
Phoenix Basher brb starting video in clem's hut.
That’s for the info I hadn’t seen the pinks yet but I will be looking.
I was wondering about the music.
I believe you have to actually open the Personal Quarters before you can find Somachord Tones on your own. I'd found plenty from being in missions with players who'd already done all that stuff prior, but I didn't start finding them in solo runs until after I installed the Segment
Wait there’s an infinite scanner?
Bro you were the most clueless person playing this quest lmao 😂
should have watched bricky
Bricky was
yzg boxer
*B R I C K Y*
He found a vitruvian in a second, scanning for warframe parts and solving the final cipher didn't take him much time also. Imo it's a pretty good playthrough.
DK with the Orokin cipher
Please learn how to fight sentients for later quests. You keep ignoring how they adapt to your damage and not using the Tenno's void damage to reset that adaptation. Watching you struggle was difficult lmao
Shadow9220 on top of that his exalted blade shreds them when they are stunned by the howl/blind
That's what happens when you dive head first into a trap, you get ambush, Basic Rule of war know your enemies.
Honestly because i havent created amps yet it was still way faster for me to just shoot em down with amprex
yup, synapse hybrid build with 150% crit+radiation here but also the pyrana prime has been incredible. I usually run Akboltos or Aklex Primes but this new Pyrana Prime has been totally crazy DPS output and the high fire rate has made is "Spray and play" for me
Wow guys I used Frost to CC then scan first then shoot and finish off with the Operator 👍
>jumps out of umbra
"Ohh! He's gonna notice that umbra moves-"
>jumps back into umbra
"Well. he'll notice it next time he does it..."
>jumps out of umbra
"YEEESSS!"
>camera is angled so he can't see umbra
"NOOOOO!!!"
But yeah. That IS actually space mom. She's a sentient, remember? She took on Margulis' face and form to be more soothing to the Tenno. The sentients value family over all else and lost their ability to reproduce when coming to the origin system from Tau. Lotus (or Natah) is Hunhow's last child. We don't know who lotus' mother is but presumably she's still in the Tau system.
Where is the one known as Thicc Boi??
Perhaps M'aiq is on wrong channel
M' aiq M'aiq have you visited the Plains, or you still running around skyrim??
V M M'aiq travels vast lands.
I don't always lie, no wait i do!!
LMAO
Well then... LORD HIRCINE BANISHES YOU BACK TO SKYRIM
If you are here, you better trade us some Skooma to us, tenno skoom.
Kudos to you finishing this quest with a mote amp.awesome video btw.
I did the quest with the fucking void laser and 100 health, because plains lag my shit pc so I haven't done anything in them. Fighting umbra was literally dying, shooting him until he got near me, and then dying again. The only reason I managed to win was because his shields didn't regen.
You and me both. I tried to evade and play skillfully at first and after my second death, switched to the Zapp Brannigan strategy.
My dumbass finished without the fuckin mote amp even lmao
Man i used op beam and did 2 tries
Mother isn't Margulis. It's literally Natah's mother. Looks like we're heading to the Tau system soon!
I'm pretty sure mother is Hunhow, since he stated previously that his womb gave birth to Natah.
The House Always Wins
*HIS* WOMB?!!
Yes. Hunhow's dialogue definitely refers to it as his womb. I'm guessing since Sentients are god-like, mountain sized super machines their version of gender is different from ours.
The House Always Wins
Well, *NoW I kNoW*
leroy shane Or Asexual.
I always wondered what'll come first, sacrifice on consoles or skillups walkthrough 🤔
ゼレフZeref it had to come out first
its a playthrough not a walkthrough
That feeling when one of Umbra's abilities basically reads "FUCK UP ALL SENTIENTS IN THE VICINITY", and this guy be like "How do I not die?!"
There is an ancient piece of MMO wisdom that says "Don't stand in fire." The same can be said about noxious green poison clouds. :D
And so ends the "Man doesnt listen to what the game tells him to do" trilogy
[Radiant howl]
(Shreds built up sentient resistance)
^
LOOK AT IT
You really need to relearn some of the mechanics of the game man. To die multiple times against a low leveled Sentients using a Sentient Killer Warframe that is Umbra is just bad hahaha
And grind your operator. He is not as clunky as it used to be. A maxed upgraded operator is just as mobile as most frames.
PSA: your operator/Tenno is upgradeable via focus system and the Quills located on Cetus who can help you get better void amps which affect your void blast/attacks.
Chat: "Skill-up, you need a proper Amp to defeat Umbra!"
Skillup: *cue War Within Epic Theme* "I don't need one..."
The point is to sacrifice one thing you want for another you (the community) longed for. To get the Umbra, you give up Space Mom.
I mean that's one interpretation but the real reason is the sacrifice of people to the infestation to create the miracle warframes.
i hade to sacrifice my limbo to get my rhino :( only had 2 warframe slots and i regret everything
I already fell in love with Umbra
I will soon i hope :/
Wha-?
I think I speak for us all when I say please lrn2exalted blade + radial howl sentients. Given how the quests have gone so far, plus Umbra's design it's prety clear they're going to be Sentient heavy in future and they're going to wreck you.
Excaliber umbra is excal prime but has a darker look and has no ring face
To be entirely honest, you didn't do that bad considering how long you've been away from warframe and how weak your operator is. With a good amp and enough points invested into focus (which isn't as bad as the last time you've played, the costs have been reduced, the daily cap increased, and both Sanctuary Onslaught and Tridolon hunting are very fast ways of gaining focus) the Operator can become hilariously strong, especially at the level of this quest.
Aside from that, the Sentients are just a bit tricky to fight, but the most important thing you need to know about them is their Adaptive Resistance mechanic. Those red icons you see swirling above their heads appear when a certain damage type (impact, slash, corrosive, viral etc.) has been used to damage them and instantly grants them 90% damage resistance to it, meaning that weapons with high damage bias like Soma Prime slash or Aklex Prime's puncture (and impact to some extent which is why you saw some good results with it) will become near useless after a few shots. Normally this would mean you need several different weapons and switch between them to kill each Sentient, but with Operator it all goes out the window. Their Void damage type will instantly reset all damage resistances on a Sentient making it super vulnerable again. The amount of Void damage dealt doesn't matter, so typically you just burn them down to around half their health when their resistances block most of your damage, pop into Operator mode and flash them with a little Void damage (amp, Void Blast or Void Dash), and then immediately go back into your warframe to finish them off.
Excalibur Umbra's two primary gimmicks are that it fights alongside you like a Specter (which due to its AI is there more to look cool then to really make any dramatic difference to your playstyle) and the other is its modified Radial Howl ability (originally Radial Blind on base Excalibur) which has a different animation and sound, but more imprtantly now also strips all Sentient resistances the same way Operator does (while also stunning them which is always quite useful). As you also noticed it comes with new mods and unique Umbra polarities to fit them, making Umbra the de facto Sentient Hunter frame. This is mostly why everyone now expects the TennoCon reveal to have something to do with the Tau Ceti system (the system that Sentients were originally sent to by the Orikin for terraforming purposes) or at least a Sentient Outpost somwhere in the outer reaches of the Sol system.
After watch a couple of play through a of this quest, I was wondering , does people look at the instructions below the mini map?
Glad to see your back having fun in Warframe after that whole journey you said at the beginning lol, and I feel your pain with the internet haha.
ORO 0147 my internet is terrible also wish I had faster internet 😅
Hope to see you covering the upcoming TennoCon
the amount of times i was yelling "AVOID THE SENTIENTS!" are uncountable
Margulis is not Lotus' mother, Margulis and Natah combined to become the Lotus. We don't know who 'Mother' is exactly. However I believe it to be Hunhow, a lot of people can say that Hunhow is male and is therefore not Natah's mother but it was Huhow who said that the Sentient crossed the void, their wombs in flames or something along those lines in the Natah quest I believe. I don't believe that the Sentient have genders per say just parents/creators but that's just speculation. It's also interesting to see in this quest that the betrayal of the Sentient was intentional. That their creator intended for them not to hand the Tau system over to the Orokin.
But she specifically refered to Hunhow as father, mother might be something else, like her homeland, or someone who had a maternal role in her life
I now understand why the difficulty of the cinematic quests is tuned to this level lmao
*be umbra, best sentient slayer frame's sentient slaying specialist variant* my nemesis! LMAO
It'd be interesting if Magulis is Lotus(Natah)'s mother, or at least what she was referring, but her father is Hunhow though
"WE GOT UMBRA BUT WE DON'T HAVE SPACE MUM WUT IS DA POINT??!!"
- Skill Up, 2018
should go get the simaris scanners with infinite scans. trust it's worth
Right? Massive money saver for anyone who uses Helios.
he probably don't have time to mess around with Simaris much, then again this is Skill-up so he may not even know that thing exit.
To be honest it was eaiser to find the stuff in the Sacrifice with the Codex Scanner. I also really fucking hate the UI for the Simiaris Scanner
No matter how much times Ordis trying to ridicule us through its words, it is Ordis the one who will always welcome you back, from now on.....
The only biggest grip I had here, is you calling the Operator slow, and I agree, their RUN speed is sad compared to the Warframes... but and then I see:
>No Sprinting
>No Dodge/Slide
And most importantly:
>>>>No Void Dash
And still did better than most people with 0 time put in the Operator.
I bet must have not even moved from their spot.
Honestly the amount of time/resources you have to put into making the Operator effective feels excessive. That focus isn't going into things you'll use 90% of the time you play and to really beef up the Operator you need to unbind passives, which is another 1 million focus per node (2 nodes per path remember) after maxing it out.
I think the vast majority of players simply won't HAVE much if any operator benefits from the focus trees when doing this quest.
@@Sorain1
I think in the future we will require the operator much more
Great decision to move into no internet for streamer/youtuber, but lol.
It's the 21st Century. You don't really expect any ISP to provide such pitiful services.
Sometime you don't have choice living in rural areas, only DSL available and Satellite is so sky high that you live with what you get. I myself finally got Fiber line 2 months ago and only because last 10 years I have been non stop complaining to our rural phone co-op company for crappy INTERNET service they provide us with. Excuses have ranged from us "being at end of service line from nearest hub" to "maybe our Ethernet Router was old". Post Dial-up We had for years 2.8-3MB down 300-700kb Up. I have become close friends with the repair supervisor over our area and I would send him texts w Screenshots every time it dropped connection or speed be 400kb Down50kb Up. They finally added our street to the budget few years ago,ran the fiber line but still haven't connected us for last 2 years. I've had Router replaced with every model They have, even with the best one for media (with 2.4GHz and 5GHz Streaming with phone and cable connection) they use in homes within town limits. it was 0 improvement just the signal got more stable. So now we were just switched over onto Fiber Line and have 15MB Down 3MB Up(59.99$ a month), at least now We are limited by how much I wanna pay but at least now I can keep speeding up as I see fit. WE can finally stream movies, both kids like to watch UA-cam and when wife does Online school classes everyone doesn't have to stop doing anything online. I even did my very 1st Twitch stream last weekend had no lag and was able to still play normal on my PS4 in Warframe.
Moral of the story -- In this technological day and age there shouldn't be anyone on super slow DSL or Dial-up(because there are still users who put up with it). There should be a standard of 20MB Down 10MB Up at least
PS. I even used to HotSpot to my Verizon 4G phone when I got very frustrated. And with connection 35MB-15MB Up I wanted to cry how unfair it was on DSL
That space mom betrayal Hit me hard, I'm so hyped for the new war.
Quitting a job to do UA-cam and moving to a house with internet so weak it’s basically a standard error is like becoming an Uber driver and torching your car. Love the channel.
skillup the man so cringe its good.... :D
Soon™ on console
Sentients: spawning in
Everybody: nah, imma extract
Not in the tau dlc
*fighting ghouls*
"They are new and they are not easy!"
Did he miss the literal dozen or so ghoul incursions?
I live in Egypt.....i wish i had 0.5 MB download :(
ali amer i can relate to this too XD
I live in Germany and i have under 0.5 MB download. R.I.P.
I feel you man... even now. My upload speed is nearly nonexistent.
Believe it or not 0.5 MB download speed is already a little above average in my country XD
I live in the United States and have about 100 kb/s download speed. Someone help meeeeee.
Man how many times did you die in that first mission?! Skill Up my arse more like Scrub Up xD
Didn't those Laymen doofuses (and thiccboi) call him Shill Up? This might be why.
The parts of the story you seem to have missed: The Orokin created the Sentients to extend the Orokin empire into another solar system. The Sentients are Sentient machines that can reproduce. So they knew that the Orokin would ruin it just like they did with earth and turned on them. Ballas and Margulis were lovers, and both hated the Orokin empire. They caught Margulis saving the Tenno, Ballas had the rank of executioner and was forced to execute Margulis. She was the sacrifice for us. So Ballas instead started to work with the Sentients behind the scenes to destroy the Orokin empire. Currently it's unclear why but it is clear that it is out of anger because they forced him to execute his lover. Umbra used to be highly ranked soldier, who spotted Ballas having communications with the Sentients. Ballas wanted to torture him in this way and make him feel the same s him, by forcing him to execute his most loved one (his son). Lotus IS a Sentient with the memories of Margulis. Which she even admitted during the Natah quest. Which leads me to why I think Ballas worked with Hunhow: I think that he made a deal with Hunhow, that he needs to give him secrets while Hunhow will sort of bring his lover Margulis back from the dead. Which created the Lotus. I expected her to return to the Sentients, and that we won't get her back at the end of it. But the end was even a shock for me tho.
Watching Skill Up gradually get the lore behind Warframe's was rather entertaining.
skillup please for the sake of god wiki research about sentients and umbra's 2 destroys sentient resistances
kek. "DID SHE JUST BAIL?!?!" grade A commentery
I just realised something, in the "yellow path" of the mission when the operator and Umbra finally sync, the guitar/banjo playing in the background must be pre-umbra's Shawzin, there must be a coalition between this because umbra finally found someone to share his pain and at the end of the mission, he finally had his vengeance, maybe the song that plays in the background must be 'Smiles of Juran' as it reminded him of his happy days.
this makes so much sense wtf
Yeeeeesssss Finally. I completed the Sacrifice quest and can now enjoy watching this.n
why is your operator soo bad?
ENC0RE Gamer he a noob
He has the Mote Amp and nothing else.
Also, he has a flaw I only saw in DK: He does NOT Sprint.
But still better than DK, who only knows how to roll.
Aki145 DK plays on controller so it’s difficult for him to bullet jump
PhantomTheSniper how I use a controller and I can bullet jump nicely
Phantom ghoul 113
Same
Umbra is made in China 😁
4000ThousandSmiley *for*
4000ThousandSmiley So that's why it's faulty
Its basically calling hom excal prime but he has no ring on his face and he can kill sentients!
Buy one now!
Dont compare me to keyface. Ive always been the best but it seems it took you some time to find me. Now put that aside and let me kill those sentients!
It hurts to see him get killed by Sentinel as Excalibur Umbra.
Thank you for the explanation, Iwas actually rewatching a couple of your old warframe videos thinking you got bored and left the community. But i'm glad to see your videos again.
You know.... you said so many times "oh I hate this" or something simular. That I feel like you dont really like this game to much... Maybe I am reading to much into it but you really shouldnt play Warframe if you dont like it.... And I did see your reviews. But watching you play and react feels like you dont really want to do this... Just IMO
He hated fighting the sentients because they kept killing him, he doesn't actually hate the game just trying to kill those sentients.
Yeah fine I am to lazy to search out all the parts were I think he showed he dosnt like to play it. But I felt like he didnt like it.
KizKim it shows in his lack of basic understanding in game mechanics he is like a mr 5 who has rhino so he doesn't have to learn no opinion here just observations
Well, he did say that he hadn't played the game in three months.
I have to agree..seems like he's just trying to get it over with. Bullet jumping like a spaz to the next "thing". Please slow down and actually learn the game if you insist on streaming..as it is right now its cringworthy.
*Ralph please read this for a bit of lore explanation:*
*WARNING text below contains spoilers!*
> Margulis and Ballas worked together on the Tenno and Warframe project.
- Ballas created the first warframes, he took Orokin men and women and infected them with the Technocyte Virus and using the Helminth.
- Margulis was responsible for easing the Tenno suffering by creating the Transference system and inducing Tenno into a dream like state.
(Remember that Tenno lost all their relatives on the Zariman Ten Zero, only they survived)
> Margulis and Ballas had a romantic relationship, how far that relationship went is unknown as of now.
> Ballas was part of the tribunal that sentenced Margulis to death, hence his comment of "sacrifice Love for Faith" ,he choose the Orokin instead of Margulis.
> So now Margulis is dead, but some time after her death and before the Tenno Revolt, Natah came into the picture.
> Natah is/was a daughter of Hunhow leader of the Sentients in the TAU system.
- She was sent to our system, the Sol system to turn the tide of the Orokin-Sentient war.
- By assuming the appearance of Margulis she got the Tenno to listen to her. this is also when she took the up the name of The Lotus.
- Spurred on by the Lotus, the Tenno revolted and all but eradicated the Orokin.
- The Lotus was ordered by Hunhow to kill the Tenno after they had killed the Orokin but she put us to sleep instead.
*note: some conjecture in the following:*
> Fast forward to the present and The Lotus awakens us.(This quest makes it all the more confusing why she did.)
- The Tenno keep balance.
- The Tenno finish of remnants of Hunhow lurking in the sea. (Natah quest)
- Unless we use the boddies of the enemies we kill, i doubt the Warframes we make in the present are made in the same way Ballas did in the past.
- Because we used Umbra parts the rebuild Umbra, most importantly his head/brain, and Infested tissue is amazing at regenerating, we were able to recreate him perfectly.
So now Umbra is probably the only Warframe in our arsenal that's actually a human at it's core.
- "But what about my Warframe moving on it's own during The Second Dream?"
Helminth is a living infested creature with some degree of self control, but tame. Helminth charger is tame as well. Likely the Warframes are also tame infested creatures.
In simple terms it was like a dog protecting it's master.
As to who the Lotus 's mother is, we don't know. I think she did appear in the Natah quest for a moment, but it's been a while so...
It's safe to assume that the Lotus went to the TAU system with Ballas.
Hope the text wall wasn't to horrid of a read.
Cheers!
SkillUp: Look how slow I am!
Also SkillUp: continues to ignore existence of a run button
Always remember kids:
"Valentine color palette got the darkest black."
Watching you performing a "fashion frame" session on Umbra was the most satisfying things I've seen all day. Thank ye.
I like how you mention a connection between Margulis and the Lotus right before it is shown that they are the same person.
Skill Up: I'm so slow without my warframe
Also Skill Up: Doesn't sprint
Watching skill up play videos games without chat stresses me out
Congrats on vacation and in taking the leap of faith and leaving your day job. Best of luck. You got it.
About sentients, they build up resistances to certain damage types after they have been hit with the effect that's what the little red icons next to their health are showing, that's why they take less damage the more you hit them. The special thing about umbra is his 2 can cleanse/remove those resistances as a side effect to stunning them with it, and his abilities do more damage then average when umbral mods are equipped. But this was a great playthrough I hope you do more of these!
Me with default colors: 10/10
Me with your colors: -10/10
I will make you chase me through the Solar system again if you continue to make me ugly!
It's good that you were gone. The rest of us had to sit around for 6 months, waiting to find out what happened to mom. Welcome to the wait.
I don't even know you can actually die in a cinematic quest. Thx for letting me know that skillup.
Time Capsule. 2018 was when I started Warframe. can't wait for Duviri Paradox
Haha so glad you uploaded this. I was looking forward to seeing your reaction. Once you got Umbra and you kept 5ing out, I kept shouting to my monitor dude notice Umbra fighting without you! When you finally noticed it... YES! About time! Looking forward to the next playthrough when the quest is up.
Take care of your Operators and Operators will take care of you.
I had a custom amp but only unlocked some of their abilities, and had no difficulties in this part. I can only imagine how buttery-smooth it was for those who leveled them to the max.
And most importantly, study their abilities. SkillUp, you have no idea how easy it would've been if you at least knew that when you'r cloacked you're not just cloacked, you're actually invincible.
@Skill up, those things that you hate have a damage reduction that they build up, if you use the same weapon too much, you are meant to reset the damage reduction with a void strike, but blinds, like inaros first ability, and Excalibur's 2nd called radial blind/howl do this also. So next time you have to fight these in a story mission (You will), shoot them, then when it does no damage, use a blind or switch to void :)
Love the videos man, doing great work
Mesa is my fucking savior. I could NOT have completed this quest line without her.
@skillup love the tactical potato shout out. On of my only notifications I get from youtube is his vids
>Be SkillUp
>Say you read about Umbra's abilities
>Still don't know that they remove resistences
>Still don't know that 4 deals the most damage to sentients
>Still don't know that 3 removes resistences
Good Job SkillUp
Because next to no one cared to offer assistance:
Umbra is one of the best unmodded frames to handle sentients.
Weapons must have radiation damage.
Sentients adapt to damage types so if youre damage falls off, switch to another weapons that has a different element or primary raw typing.
Umbra's Howl (2nd ability) clears all resistances on sentients in addition to blinding them.
Umbra sacrificial mods have "Tau Resistance", meaning sentients overall do less damage to you.
Umbra mods also are set-level based. Having all 3 makes all 3 maxed, having 2 makes them middle ground, and just having 1 makes that 1 sub-par. Same with his melee and the sacrificial mods.
The passive of the frame allows Umbra to act as a spectre when youre in operator mode. Additionally the hidden ability of the shiajati is that you turn invisible for a while when you perform a stealth attack that kills an enemy. (Used best with radial howl).
Now you know why so many people face palmed... But don't let that get to you. People tend to forget that in WarFrame everything is essentially "Learn as you go". Thats why so many pros refered to the wiki back in the day until it became memorized.
About Umbra: Umbra was a Chinese server exclusive, but when the server closed they petitioned to have Umbra moved to the Global server. Umbra has better overall base stats than even Excal Prime. This was also partially DE's way to apologize to users for their Excal Prime/Founders exclusivity since so many users wanted Prime but cant ever get it after the offers closed in 2013. If Prime ever comes back, DE is liable to be sued by any and all Founders as a form of contract was established that only Founders can have Prime.
That EPIC Fashion Frame editing; top-tier editing. You forgot to mod Umbra though (unless it was edited out).
i never get tired of watching this quest, but this gameplay... cmon.. at least you enjoyed it.
truly entertaining, much fun to witness the skillup way : p GG man, keep up the warframe adventure, hope to hear more soon.
"We had created monsters we couldn't control... We drugged them, tortured them, eviscerated them. We brutalized their minds, but it did not work. Until they came. And it was not their force of will, not their void devilry, not their alien darkness... It was something else. It was that somehow, from within the derelict horror, they had learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing... and take away it's pain."
The delivery on that line was flawless! Ballas' voice actor is amazing :O
I know this is an old video but I've been watching you for about 6 months ( Friends Per Second podcast) and had no idea you played Warframe. I will have to search your channel for more Warframe stuffs. ❤
that is quite something to see those Kubrow lured Ghoul right into your drop zone and just ambush you like that.
You didn't have to suffer the months of missing space mum, you got into the sacrifice so quickly. So upset over that as I did the protolog asap. :(
