So I'm catching up on all my quests.....

And seriously, what the fuck is up with the Limbo Theorem's Excavation mission? I'm getting torn apart.

The Archwing Interception I thought was hard considering my Archwing shit is like Lvl 20. It was tough but I made it.

Meanwhile, the fucking excavation? RUINING me. My best frame, my best weapons, nothing. These guys shoot like they're level 60+. The Excavator goes down in seconds, which I'm used to. But I'm literally getting gunned down as I just try and defend. Is this mission tuned to just be extra fucking stupid and difficult? I've never played a 22-30 mission that fucked me up this bad.

Edit

This is fucking ludicrous. They're gunning down excavators within seconds of spawning. You know what I love? Hidden difficulty tweaks. Why not just label the fucking mission 50+ and be done with it? Why the FUCK do you stick a mission like this on a lower level planet? At least require or fucking mention a group would be a good idea.

I've played 800 hour of this shit and never have I seen something this outrageously unfair.

Edit 2

I finally managed to beat it solo by switching to Nyx, speccing for Max Range/Max Efficiency and just spammed Chaos. Still took about 2 or 3 games to get it right. None of the quests I've done in WF have been this lop-sided on damage. If it was damage heavy they made sure you knew it. None of this "dies in 2 bullets, kills you in 3" stuff. Christ I was running those 3-in-one seasonal missions with level 60 Exitus, and even they weren't hitting me this hard. At least I got lucky and got it only my 5th or 6th excavator. Now to see how much of a pain in my ass the rest of this will be....tbh I don't even really care about Limbo, I just want to tick the quests of my to-do list. And it was going swimmingly til now.

I'm not sure when excav missions went in, but there was a bug for a while that excavators wouldn't take damage. They might have balanced it for that, then fixed the bug.

Have you tried having a frost around for excav? It does excellent things for the pods surviving.

[nenjin]

Never got around to playing Frost, wasn't really my style. Which was why I was annoyed. I get irritated with WF missions where you can't beat it with your frame of choice.

Especially when it claims to be a 22-30 mission.

[frostshotgg]

It's a game designed to be played in squads. 2 players might be double the enemies, but being able to be in a group is an invaluable resource.

Considering I've completed every quest up until now solo...

I don't honestly care except I don't like buffing enemy damage on a low level mission. That's crap. Make the mission the appropriate level so I don't spend 2 hours wondering why the fuck each bullet is doing between 70 and 150 shield damage and health.

[frostshotgg]

I think before I quit, I was trying to do Chroma's defense mission solo and it just wasn't happening. Some frames just can't solo stuff. Valkyr is always an option.

[Jopax]

Have you considered using specter consumables to help out? Not sure if you can have multiple of them active at the same time, but having something like a blitz eximus to keep the masses cc-ed for the most part is of great help.

And yeah, considering it's a heavily team based game doing stuff solo isn't generally an option. Give pubbies a try, they aren't all that bad for the most part

[nenjin]

Hard to do that for quests that launched a year ago and no one is playing them now.

[raptorfangamer]

So i've recently gotten a better net and have been using it to see what games I can now play around with, one of these is warframe.
I think I made a post before in this thread on Map 1.0 when I was super nooby and had a hard time with an infested mobile defense mission on earth...
I'm still not endgame material but I'm trying to get there.

My net might be able to handle north america but haven't made any big test besides some pubs.
Name's Raptorfang if anybody wants to play.

[Shadowgandor]

If anyone needs help doing quests, send me a message. I'm Shadowgandor in game and have endgame weaponry (fully forma'd Tonkor, Torid and Buzlok. Fully forma'd Kohnak (? The cluster rocket launcher secondary) and Despair) and most warframes.

[nenjin]

Well I played about 40 hours of WF this weekend. Mostly caught up on quests. Finally got through the Second Dream (holy crap that was a long series of quests to get here.)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Not sure quite how I feel about the story. On the one hand, the reason the Lotus didn't destroy the Tenno amounting to "ON NOES, MY BABIES" is kind of hilarious. When they started talking about infertility and all that I went "uh, what?" Seems a very modern problem for a game about sci-fi space ninjas back flipping through most problems. Was just kind of a WTF moment, it came out of nowhere.

But overall I like the concept of the operators being genetically altered children who basically only know how to murder. Their "special powers" seem a little out of place though. When I started shooting lasers out of my hands during the mission I was not necessarily pleasantly surprised. That whole part of the quest actually kinda sucked, both the escape and fighting the stalker. Once I figured it out it wasn't too bad but it wasn't exactly fun.

Focus is....well it's certainly the next level grind to keep WF going. Gonna take months and months to get anywhere with that.

Meanwhile, Sorties are turning out to be kinda fun, actually. After so many hundreds of hours farming no-threat opponents, it's actually refreshing to do a mission where the enemies are stupidly hard....and win! 20 minutes on Lvl 80-100 survival? No sweat. Even solo'd the Spy Missions in the Eximus Stronghold...talk about Stealth Gameplay, it took me almost 40 minutes to do it undetected by anyone. It's a whole different game when you're only a couple bullets away from dead.

[BlackFlyme]

I had the silly idea of attempting a Warframe themed overhaul mod for Dwarf Fortress. Not going to happen anytime soon though.

Anyways, new frame and weapon. Nezha's parts are available as Sortie rewards, and may be traded. Can't seem to find anyone to buy the systems from at the moment though. Shaku nunchaku. Requires Ninkondi to make, and can be researched in the dojo. Plus new Loki skin, including a skin for the Scimitar landing craft, and for dual kama.

Finally, it's festive time. Festive skins are back, with some being only one credit, and others requiring plat.

[marples]

Finally made time to try conclave for the first time.

It seems I'm not as nimble as I thought, I can't aim, and have zero situational awareness. 

[Aklyon]

Sounds like pvp then, yep. At least my experience in it.
