Which is why I mentioned the different meanings, because mara is not just one set word. It is used to define many things, a mindset of different schools of Buddhism and more.
To ballas and the infestation, it is negative connotation. Mara is also the different obstacles on the wait to enlightenment, road blocks.
It is hard to explain because it is so multi faceted
What’s happening?
I think the only thing Lotus has called us is Tenno and Child
Yeah, she has never called us mara at all. There is a video where Reb does explain that mara is "main character" place holder name in the story
Rebb also said we don't have to be called Mara and her reasoning was not everyone has a female Op or Drifter
It’s just a code thing
Words
is there a way to abduct clem into my ship?
The shin megami tensei team too

She has actually, Mara is spoken in her song during Lotus Eaters
Mara very likely means Child
Demon is our nickname given to us from those that hate us (Ballas, Erra) and those that fear a part of us (Helminth fearing the void/wally)
but we are called Mara by the Cavia, Wally and the Lotus
We are more so a child of the void than we are a demon of it.
Does Lizzie fear us though?
Read what I said again
The infestation fears the void / wally
Not us
We carry a piece of Wally with us, he gave it to us
Lizzie still doesn't seem afraid of us or Wally she's even up to eating cars
She certainly isn’t a fan of him
My point is she calls us demon, and helminth calls us demon, due to what we have not because of who we are.
How to kill the Infesation
Throw them into the Void and give them a heart attack
I think the infested use demon and ballas uses devil, cant remember what erra used
Has "the smiling one" been added to wiki name lists for wally yet
Yes
whats up with the worms of deimos
Updog
Sibling beef
We only know that they kill each other, that's it
OK so Yareli prime confirmed
Is yareli getting a trailer
Yup
Music is banging
Watch Yareli Prime not release with a Prime K-drive but a random cosmetic
i just tried to start jade shadows and its saying mother trauma????????
i hate ballas already am i gonna hate him more?
Yes
damn
It's an emotional quest for 30ish mins
He is a warframe
He's sentient and independent
WAIT FR????
MAN BREAKING SHACKLES.PNG (/pos)
how?
He's a Warframe that hunts Tenno
omg....... narrated prime trailers is back too or??
Maybe
There's a few frames with sentience
I CANT WATCH THE STREAM LIVE BC OF MY BAD WIFI I HATE IT HERE
umbra is one of them
Umbra...etc
Not sure, lavos also had a teaser like that
hes just in a loop
Yeah
Any frame can have some level of sentience with enough emotion
yea she is... ||until she died.|| idk if youve finished jade shadows yet or not so. spoiler tag.
Good
I'd argue jade is a step above umbra and stalker at maintaining her control
shes an angel
bibically accurate death machine too
why does stalker hunt the tenno
and why he working under hunhow
Some have walked these desolate worlds while you have slept. Some like me. I remember what you did. I remember the day.
The Tenno appeared at the Terminus, gleaming and victorious. Our cold and gold Emperors, breathless, bathed you in savior's silk. Then came the sound. Across all our worlds, all at once, the ceremonial Naga drums. A royal salute to the honored Tenno. Ten solemn beats to declare the suffering was over. I watched from a distance, with the rest of the low Guardians. With each beat terror began to crush my throat. The Tenno were not stoic and silent. They were waiting. They were poised. I tried to call out but only a strangled whisper escaped.
When the ninth beat rang a torrent of blood filled the stadium, loosed by Tenno blades. The drums, the Empire, fell silent forever.
Now I hunt, dividing your numbers. Watching from that dark place, cataloging your sins, I am the ghost of retribution. You may forget but you are not innocent.
so
simplifying it
stalker was a guardian for the orokin
tenno snapped and bloodshed the stadium now he hunts them to avenge orokins?
why is he a warframe then but not a dax
That is when you keep playing the quest
alr
No probably won't.
Lavos also didnt have new music afaik?
Probably will affect something later on
...the more i listen to velimir talk while playing him (literally became a frost main because of him), the more i see why minerva couldnt resist that terrible, godawful, rizz. "ah yeah. violence." said in a deep, just this side of gravely voice? yeah. yeah i get it maam.
they matched each other's unhinged freak.
Apparently not too far off
Why Minerva really likes him
its the jokes
romancing dem new protoframes…
seriously?
You can't romance the new protos.
The reasons are "Too Young-Kaya" "Married couple-Vel and Minerva" "in a relationship with a sentient guitar-Flare." @gritty flume
ye
I think for Kaya it’s more she doesn’t want an online relationship or
Really any considering her trauma :p
also that.
I think it’s mostly that tbh
The Drifter is technically like
Way way older than all of the Hex and after a certain amount of time the Hex are mentally older than their bodies (so long as we don’t reset their minds)
So
It’s an odd situation
Ngl I'm sad its Yareli Prime. Been really hoping for Citrine Prime, but I should probably lose that hope
At least it’s consenting adults
Yup!
Yareli’s next up
Not Citrine lol
Didn't Citrine release before Yareli?
Dang. Yeah just googled it. That does not feel like it's as far apart as it actually is
Maybe it's cause I play her so much, but she feels as old as Garuda, even tho that's not the case
DE also changed the order to make Xaku Prime possible
Garuda was 2018 lol
Ik lol that's when I first got into Warframe
I swear I haven't seen a Citrine player outside of players ranking her
She's strong af. Whenever I'm not MR leveling, she's my go-to
i use citrine every so often for a kill x enemies with abilities challenge
when i don't feel like using garuda talons or exalted blade type things
she's fun when the circumstance calls, but i also understand low popularity
the grind prolly sours the experience somewhat as well
Yeah the grind was atrocious for sure but with how strong she is, it's worth
Built her using all 5 archon mods and a few others
tbh the best advice for the citrine grind is just to do a couple rounds every once in a while rather than a constant grind like with other frames
Yeah, looking back, that's probably the best way for mental health's sake, but I grinded for like 3 days straight
I was sick when she released. Did it all in one day for some reason💀
I should start a YouTube channel and make a series on how to not play warframe
yeah so people couldn't go "XAKU IS A HE SEE" but also it was for future frames like flare.
theres kissing in warframe 1999 
yes. even if you choose no one. well that is more of a hug.
with the cat.
yeah
if you choose no one and are best friends with everyone DE didn't want you to be left out.
we kiss the cat?
so you get to hug the cat.
Or just if you're a fumbler like Rebb
you can't date david bowie
they are in a relationship with a gutiar with she/her pronouns.
what
i wonder
you can't date any of the new ones for the reason i gave.
u can make homosexual relationships right? im not wrong
also what i just said was true.
that is the funniest wording.
but sure yes you can.
im bad with english
thats nice
btw if i start 1999 am i gonna be locked in there until i finish it?
i see myself as the drifter and i do 
is gender real for anyone?
woooooo who knows lmao.
also Flare and Temple are non-binary btw.
lizzie goes by she/her for reasons.
Yes
After the quest you might not want to leave though
I sure haven't
do we have any details on the upcoming prime stuff alongside yareli and kompressa?
No.
We don't even know the kompressa lmao. @obtuse void
Got a cool song though.
agreed. highly agree
It is pretty much guaranteed
A prime without the base's signature weapon is impossible
But I am also right.
Watch DE not make kompressa prime just to spite me for saying that
Wukong?
Wukong doesn't have a signature weapon
No Wukong love 😭
He has his exalted weapon atleast
I guess but it feels like wukong gets nothing fancy 😂
He doesn't deserve anything fancy
man
i dont wanna do the missions but i have nothing else to do
i fear that the game will stop being entertaining without em
the main story missions or...?? bc tbh i just ignored most of the side missions.
main story
also do u know where can i find jades parts?
Ascension
Quests. They're called quests
same sht gang 😭
and what is it
Brutus, Uranus

Well no because the regular gameplay is called missions
It's a mission node unlocked by completing Jade Shadows
alr 
is getting her parts hard?
i got her from the belly of the beast event tbh,,, i think ordis has her bps in drifter's camp...
RNG based, mostly
what
The main blueprint is a quest reward, and the components can drop from completing Brutus
If they haven't boosted the drop rates since release it's painfully slow
But you can also buy the blueprints from Ordis using Vestigial Motes
Which also drop from Brutus
drifter's camp... on earth....... did you do the new war??
ah shucks
Jade shadows requires tnw
Eh, there's worse
I've tried for Citrine once
There is indeed worse
dagath is worse????
That's a nope from me
Not farming Voruna
I can not forget because I got burned out farming wolf mommy frame
wolf what-
I mean
Probably not
gang why are ppl getting thristy over SPACE ROBOTS
People still simp for valkyr
for what reason
Cause they ain't robots
Because they're designed to be fairly conventionally attractive
With exceptions
sorry.... they are infested sick people that got turned into war machines by helminth strain
but that dosent make them bangable yk
that just makes it worse
Do not underestimate artists
i seen the wisp arts dw
tbh not really,, but i did her vainthorn farming solo so.
you just need abyssal beacons, which you can get from any syndicates. 16 i think...... or 15. i got 20 of the things & had fun soloing everyone w umbra tbh.
I'm also simping for kullervo deluxe and it's not even released yet
But believe me when I say that I'm gonna buy it asap
On the subject of Dagath, I just don't bother with the syndicates
So I bought Dagath
You gave like the best example with wisp
Tempted to do the same
Been looking forward to a Kullervo deluxe
she dosent even have feet shes just a hollow corpse flying yk
but that wont stop people will it
im scared to ask but example?
The Five Nights at Freddy's fandom has taught me that people won't stop for anything
No
honestly understandable
yea, it wont
i too did pulled into that black hole thx to vrchat too
was loid and otak a viodrig?
No
Otak is a cephalon with unknown original purpose, necraloid was made to keep loid company
That's just the average entrati style
Entrati like coin shape :3
greedy blue people
Nothing new there
honestly
what does the entrati opens besides helminth
if i were to max it out
Lavos and cedo
regular lavos?
Great frame, great weapon
dont sell me the great frame sht broski
i know nobody played lavos before his prime got added

Xaku and Xaku kit
Halloween stories
Halloween decorations
Halloween weapons
Halloween in general
Everything but the Halloween frame
That's dojo + syndicates

dats cool
i just hate deimos so much i don wanna do its quest
but i have to
come to think of it, we need a Day of the Dead Dagath
atleast the sister and grandma is likeable
Only Entrati I don't like is Mother
Except, oddly enough, when she's narrating in Duviri
dont play duvuri that much
i just hate orokin in general
but for some foking reason DE decided to make every frame with OROKİN CELLS
sure it makes sense but i hate farming it so much
Ceres works too
Think that's where I get most of mine
I don't actually pay much attention to my cell stores lol
I've got 200+ of them
WHERE
228 lol
I just checked in companion
Companion app can check profiles now?
No, sorry
I meant that's how many I have
Oh
probably could have made that clearer 
I just end up not using much
I have 247 Cells
Slightly more than me 
Just playing restocks them
I play super casually myself, but they kinda stack up from my extractors alone.
Yeah, I'd probably have more from my extractors if I wasn't gunning for Mutagen Samples
Hema research is still hungry
I think neurodes were my main thing before; now I always plant them on Deimos, Kuva Fortress and the Zariman.
Oh, a bunch came from Helene defense as well, especially when I see it come up as a relic.
Because he need you to use brain cells which the average wf player doesn't have
mm yes spam gas catalyse
Ok im going to say something that i think is a bit controversial: The New War was kinda mid
Like, yes it's a good quest, but there's a few parts where i thought it was just a bit idk unnecessary?
Like the worst offender IMO by far is the sentient ship that was trying to feed on the sun, that came out of absolutely nowhere, and was completely unnecessary IMO
Just a heads-up, pretty sure this isn't actually the right place, but I'm a bit too tired to look for it...
Started Whispers in the Walls just now. Had to find out, this hotfix doesn't actually work properly, cause I encountered that exact problem just now
(screenshot from the warframe fandom wiki)
Submit bug report asap
DE doesn't like it when their fixes don't go through
wanted to write it down somewhere where others see it cause I often forget about this kind of stuff rather fast...
Hope I will remember to report it when I'm back online in a bit...
It’s Ballas’ desperate attempt to get to Tau but ok
Also try to write down exactly what you did so you can try to reproduce it
It helps
I know because each time I report they ask me to
will have to read through stuff how to submit logs - cause I don't even know where I would get those from!
will try later, have to do other stuff rn
Came out of nowhere? Phragasa was in the prelude to the New War, as well as the location of the first act
Yeah ik what it is, what i meant is story-wise it came out of nowhere
It really didn’t
And how it works wasnt explained in either of those, like it feeding on wreckage and stuff
her
That part feels like it was just like "oh we need to up the stakes"
Eehh, it makes sense
Praghasa needs to eat matter and to make a void portal straight to Tau she’d need a lot of energy
The sun produces a lot of energy
Plus it’s Ballas’ desperation and final act to try and kill everyone cause he’s a petty loser
Story-wise praghasa the mother was there since what? Erra (Quest) in prelude to the new war?
That's not what i mean story-wise
Like, sure she existed then, but was just a setpiece
She was teased way further back too
Natah mentions her briefly in the Sacrifice
And there’s that old New War teaser where it seems like she speaks (though it probably wasn’t actually her since she was dead)
Yeah like i knew she existed, but the ship just eating the sun came out of absolutely nowhere IMO
Do you remember...what they did to you?
The next chapter in Warframe's cinematic quests - The New War.
Play Warframe Free: https://warframe.com/
It'd make sense ballas wants some petty revenge on everything but the way that happened kinda came out of nowhere
It’s very in character for him
Oh yeah for sure
Like it’s def there to up the stakes but like
It also makes sense
I thought it'd be something a little more foreshadowed like making everyones narmer veils explode and kill everyone or smth
Also it serves the additional purpose of Ballas created a big enough void portal that it gets Wally’s attention which sets up the next arc
(the thing that ballas uses to up the stakes)
Well i'm not there yet so dunno about that xD
I just finished new war
If you finished it then you saw the big man in the wall
Yes ofc
Which
Yeah sorry, that is setting up what’s next 
You’ll find out soon!
Yep
I hope you enjoy it
Yeah
But yeah idk i think there were quite a few moments in new war that were like kinda eh
The new arc is a lot. Less confusing but more confusing at the same time lol
Covid def impacted it in a lot of ways tbh
Like the prelude events to the New War weren’t great due to covid
Orphix Venom and Scarlet Spear
The prelude quest was IMO better than the main quest
Fun fact
You had to have the Paracesis, go to the railjack veil proxima mission that had a sentient ship and slap a big red crystal with the paracesis to get the Erra quest/cutscene
The main issue i had with the new war was there were a lot of parts of it that felt like they came kinda out of nowhere
So so glad they changed that lmao
Lmao
The best part by far of new war was the whole thing with Hunhow and the shadow
I think for me a decent amount makes sense and didn’t just come out of nowhere cause I was around enough to follow along with what they were setting up
Unfortunately some things are very “you had to be there at the time” kinda things
Like the ARGs especially
Hm
Yeah the hunhow stuff i think really hit well due to that, because it's like somewhat unexpected but still makes SO SO SO much sense
Like this doesn’t even show up in game lmao
And it's foreshadowed VERY well
By well i dont mean its obvious, i mean more like all the information for you to piece it together is there, but you don't expect it because it's still such a stretch
Erra was also kinda cool, although my second least favourite part of the whole quest was how he was just kinda left behind out of nowhere like tf
Youre telling me this sentient has to just sit there to support this one random ahh pillar
Cmon lmao
And also the might of the sun
You may like what’s next :)
Like, erra was quite literally cooked
You should probably do another quest, perhaps something to do with veils
And find out what dish you got out of sun-dried sentient
Iirc the Narmer song mentions the sun too so you could argue it’s foreshadowed to some degree
Oh like i fully expect him to be back don't get me wrong, but that felt like the laziest possible way to write him out of the ending to that quest
Hell, Ballas blowing up the sun to take out everyone else is calling back to albrecht's first entry lol
"We die with the sun"
Oh yeah!
My least favorite part of the old quests
Like Patient Zero
It now has literally no buildup
Alad V is suddenly Infested and is building an empire
Wut?
Which unfortunately people can miss his entries ):
And then he’s just cured in the New War lmao
Ok i haven't even had anyone named albrecht show up in the story i'm like 99% sure
And i did every single available quest pre-new war
Yeah
It's not great
Ah, not been faithful with your entrati standing huh
R5 entrati r3 necraloid?
Mother's dad
Not r3 necraloid because SCREW getting necraloid standing holy CRAP
Ok you shouldnt need max standing now anyways. Head to necraloid
Look at the fancy thing behind him
Look at the 8 interactables circling the fancy thing
(actually getting the standing is fine, what's not fine is the way the ranks are leveled up)
Tada. Dr Albrecht Entrati, father of void tech
Ah
This is what I’m talking about, players can just miss Albrecht’s whole notes behind Necraloid!
Albrecht’s vitruvian is one of the best bits in the game and it’s just something you can entirely miss
Also a major reason why i missed it is because that whole area is buggy af
Especially the last entry imo
I’m just glad you dob’t need to level up the Entrati fully to view them now tbh
Like you can get to loid from the quick wheel menu but if you do that while in warframe mode it just screws up and you can't rly do anything
...not really?? bc iirc its been known that to go to tau system, you need a massive amount of energy to make that jump. the sun is the biggest source of energy in the origin system so.
Well it wasnt known to me
Idk where it was revealed
But was DEFINITELY not very clear
I'm typically pretty good when it comes to picking stuff like that up too
i think it was said in the quest itself...
The sentients didn’t do a void jump though
And she makes a portal, not a jump
thats how i know abt it.
Definitely wasn't said in the quest
Sentients can't jump anyhow, they dont have a finger
then how did they make the jump from tau to origin system??
They flew
The solar rail?
Wrong direction
They took the long way the first bout and then used the rail the second bout
The sentients can’t do a jump due to no finger AND the void is poison to them
It was built in
^^
Plot contradictory?
Well, yeah
It contradicted Ballas' plot to take over the Origin System by spitting the Drifter out of Duviri
There ya go, plot-contradictory


Drifter rule: It is illegal for Drifter to die. Dying will result into a time loop.
Albretch was mentioned in deimos
Back when that came out. He's mother's dad.
But yeah watch the logs in diemos.
Idk about back then, but the only reference i could find to him by name at this point was his logs that i didn't even know existed before that convo lmao
Yeah, i wasnt playing back then lmao
Not mentioned by name
The time loop in 1999 was already established
In Duviri it was just Thrax resetting the day over and over
Wait you haven't done the Zariman yet have you?
No ofc not?????
I just finished new war and zariman is after new war
I hope you enjoy the new quests!
Oh, yeah no i literally just finished it lmao
The music somehow just gets better and better btw
I mean so far the best bar none has been we all lift together
Wait does someone have the
And i feel like that won't be topped anytime soon
Like chart.
That do be a banger
For Narmer is so good too since it just
Twists that
First time I heard it it had really hit me that
Oh
We lost
I'm personally fond of Sleeping in the Cold Below
You might not know the dagath thing.
Go listen to the dagath Story.
Gotcha.
Yeah idk it didn't have that big an impact on me, like i fully was expecting something like it, since we all lift together was such a good scene
And also i feel like for narmer was lacking the idk depth that we all lift together had
It had no instrumentation
I think that was purposeful tbh
The soul was sucked out of it
Cause
Everyone is veiled
Yes ofc, it makes all of the sense for it to be that way
The gauss prime music is good.
But it also does make it less good of a song IMO xD
Have you seen the gauss prime trailer Oreo?
No
I was super creeped out the first time I heard it
I've seen no content outsdide of the game
Go watch all the prime trailers
Will you choose gluttony, or guile? The ravenous, or the rapid?
Now you can enjoy watching both! Grendel and Gauss stand together once more in our official Prime Trailer Double Feature, a combined supercut of the spectacular trailers produced by DE to celebrate Grendel Prime Access and Gauss Prime Access.
Gauss Prime Access is available today ...
Double feature I guess.
Skip the prime time that’s there for some reason
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDmrv5FhAWj-UirYcGr0Ax6sjBK4T_Rex&si=jchypPLJihbw9958
The prime trailers even have a little LORE.
Also can i just mention that i love how they introduced jiggle physics for grendels stomach and applied them nowhere else lmao
As a treat.
He’s the goat
gastro of all time 
YES
IT'S HILARIOUS
Gooners: Mommy can we have jiggle physics
Lotus: We have jiggle physics at home
The jiggle physics at home:
Someone’s a freak for Grendel
And y’know what?
More power to em
Even then it's not that much. But yeah it makes sense. Minerva might have some but idk. If she didn't it would also make sense. Anyway Warframe does attractive Ness and "horniness" in a very respect way.
Wait I have a meme for this I'll send it to you lmao.
Please do lol
Also any opinions on the order in which i should do quests post-newwar? I was thinking i'd do the typical thing i always do and put off making progress as long as possible and do veilbreakers first xd
But is that a bad idea
I once played Grendel in the Circuit
Think I scared one of my teammates by eating the enemy in front of him
Because he just whirls around and stares at me for 3 seconds without moving
why put it off? it's so good. also the zariman is my favorite area in the whole game. well top 3.
Probably still up there tied for first.
Cambion my beloved
i do like diemos
LMAO nice
Well its the only one with bounties that arent like moronically difficult to do sometimes
Drone pathfinding on cetus is sometimes uh questionable
And the crate looting on venus is sometimes also very questionable, as are the lower level defense objectives on venus
Alternatively the Gourmet Of All Time
Ooo that’s better
zariman/veilbreakrr/jade shadows
duvuri
whispers
Would put Duviri before Zariman, but that's personal preference
(I also did the Paradox long before I got to the New War)
yeah most people did
i think the ||zariman segments of duviri would be more special if u played zariman first tbh||
I've done duviri LONG ago
some people just don't play it for as long as they can bc it looks boring idk
and some people suggest that you play it after new war
so idk lol
Idk how people can look at it and think boring lmao
no clue
So - I have the option to attempt New Years again but I'm only rank 3 and haven't picked a romance yet. Should probably wait till I'm set right?
I am friends with all of the Hex atm
new years retry isn't tied to the actual calendar system and won't affect anything there
iirc you either can't do it until rank 4 or you need to do it for rank 4
if youre friends w all of them thats the only requirement you need. iirc some romances are locked behind rank 4.
Gotcha - and doing the new years quest doesn't lock you out of stuff if you do it before R4 or is it as Grey said - can't even get R4 w/o completing new years again?
i honestly cant remember...
won't lock you out of anything afaik
according to the wiki it just requires rank 3 and liked w/ all hex
so you should be fine to do it
Groovy thanks gang
OH make sure you have like "all conversations" clicked but yeah doing the "finale" shouldn't mess up anything.
All convos? You mean I've gone through all available convos?
No lmao. It's just a check mark you can turn on on the PC where the kim messager is so you don't miss any chats.
Ooo lemme check
That one?
If it's checked you won't miss chats from like the previous level of friendship just cuz you give them to many gifts.
Its the first one check it.
Kk
That Hex finale was really cool - best quest wrap-up so far haha
Helps that Core Containment rules
First comes 1999
Then Zariman and Duviri
Then the whisperer in the floor
Then the family on Deimos
Then fortune
And then the last location goes to endgame: Cetus
And the final quest is Sai's Watch
?
i think they're implying a mirroring thing?
"We end as we began" ahh theory
Yes
My friend got brand new weapon during second dream
The weapon existed since Zariman incident
He just learned how to wield it with new style
Hits you over the head with a child
Help?
Whats wrong?
Helminth
Yeah.... i can see it
It's the shard segment
But i did this quest
archon shard helminth bit i guess?
need to do veilbreaker to access it
buy the bp from son, then i think
mb i misremembered
....oh okay that part is weird
Oh
Main Helminth: Son
Shards: finish Veilbreaker
Shard upgrades: Whispers and buy from Bird
right yeah
you should have the bp already, then
maybe just needs made
weird that there's no in-between message then. just a complete veilbreaker one
Actually check if you have built the segment from Veilbreaker
"Whispers and buy from bird"
Gotta add that to warframe out of context list
This game is an out of context gold mine lol
DE really should update that description to make it more clear once you have done Veilbreaker
"To obtain the required blueprint" is pretty clear I think
Think the problem is that 'blueprint' relies too much on context to figure out you have to build the thing
What's the joke again? About warframe players and reading?
Does healing the entrati family via grandma changes anyting?
gives you more family tokens to exchange with grandma for grandma tokens which give way more standing. ranking up their standing/syndicate rank is how you heal their relationships
it's a bit of a slog because they were put in before DE kinda...learned...ish, that this particular style of token trading for syndicate ranking is....eugh lol
what? no it wasn't.
DON'T TRADE G-MA TOKENS IN. only trade mother tokens in.
I just spent 2 weeks getting them to R5, why are you yelling at me lmao
the diemos bounties give like 13-17k each. that's way better than an other open worlds.
also the bounty rewards are good anyway.
okay i apologize if i was like "yelling" but really don't trade in g-ma tokens.
Grandmother tokens give more syndicate standing, and in my specific case I was not interested in using her tokens to purchase items from her. I only wanted to rank them to finally get them to 5 so I never have to worry about it ever again. Her tokens give substantial amounts of standing compared to the other family members
just turn in mother tokens. get the G-ma Tokens
to trade her for the seriglass sharks.
I think you're assuming I had the same priorities/goals you did which isn't the case
no?
i am telling you what is literally the best way that isn't a slog.
a bounty
gives 15(?) i knew this at some point. worth of mother tokens.
Assuming I want/need seriglass for one :V if/when I need those I will get to them in due course
2 bounties is max standing.
grandmother tokens given a huge amount of standing compared to mother tokens, and you usually get a good return on trading mother-to-grandmother tokens. It was a perfectly fine method for my purposes
okay
you aren't understanding my point.
it's not a slog cuz it's just 2 bounties.
also the diemos bounties have really good rewards anyway like endo and amber ayatan stars.
There's some kind of disconnect here because I understand you perfectly fine, I just think we had different priorities/interests. I did a bunch of isolation vaults and SP bounties, traded my mother tokens, spent as many grandmother tokens as I could to get max standing per day and now I don't need to worry about it ever again :D
oh
i meant normal bounties.
SP bounties take a little too long
and Iso vaults don't give that many
tokens.
but also sure.
not really, and I did iso vaults because I needed drops from the vaults (and minerals) for other things. I dont mind the two birds one stone method. if it doesn't jive with someone else they'll do their own thing and that's fine
I could probably spreadsheet the best min-max way to get them to R5 but I'm not meta enough to bother about it. if someone visits deimos frequently for materials purposes they'll eventually get to R5 passively, whether it feels sloggish depends on how important the R5 is I suppose
Cool ig
Somethin ain't right with cav in that picture
Bro is at rank negative 5
Cavalero incarnon
he looks like he's mid mud facial lol
Void facials will do wonders for your consciousness
He's gonna need at least 60 Void Children to cure that face 1 isn't enough
wow. what a masterpiece.
Masterpiece Prime
Masterpiece Umbra when?
Sometime after Tennocon
going to Tennocon with Natah cosplay (i'm lying, no money for flight)
A natah cosplay would go crazy hard omg
right??
If you could cosplay any character in Warframe
Who?
either the operator or Yareli
Def Yonta or Little Duck for me
Or the Blind Girl from the ghouls comics
Have you seen the Yareli cosplay from tennocon :o
Ordis cosplay 
Lmao
oo not yet
Myself would be the cheapest cosplay ever
I think it was last years!
Def look into it!
Though be wary of some spoilers potentially being shown, you did just finish TNW
I definitely will :D

i stopped playing at some point, that was around when Lotus Eater got released
i definitely wanna play that quest
Is it actually shorter than the other baby quests
I think it’s about the same length
agreed, i did a little oopsie and spoilered the hex for myself because i wanted to watch it because someone i watched at that time played it and that was an amazing quest as well
I just know people got uppity for some reason cause DE didn’t say it was short lmao
I gotta replay it before my big surgery
what surgery if i'm allowed to ask
I think the issue I saw people having was it was marketed as both
honestly i personally am just happy whenever there is new content
My issue wasn't with the quest but that there wasn't much to do afterwards
Bombastine
I may have found a plot hole.... There's no Heart in 1999... How can we use our Void powers?
Albrecht probably had a proxy on standby
Either that or whatever makes 1999 significant in relation to Albrecht escaping The Indifference is what allows the Hex and the Tenno to use their powers
Bottom 
Yeah I was wondering about that too
Best I can figure is the finger? Assuming Albrecht still has the original?
I’ve discussed this a number of times actually
I was fully expecting a miniature heart of sorts in 1999 but I think the more likely explanation is the Heart’s power can extend to 1999
Alternatively the Vessels all have hearts similar in design to the Heart of Deimos, so could be that once Albrecht established his vessels he also established the void powers for the protoframes as they are directly connected to their vessel counterparts
If he was expecting Wally to follow I doubt he’s take it with him tbh
And if he did he took it with him to wherever he went next
If that was the case, then the heart being destroyed at any point in time wouldn't matter, since it existed before then and its ability to pump Void energy would be able to transcend time.
Ooo hell yeah, good luck!
Thank you!
It wasn’t destroyed, just malfunctioning
But
Yeah, my best theory is the vessels but even then they would have (in theory) gone down when the Heart did
Which
All void tech would go down briefly relative to that moment
It’s weird :p
We have nothing else in 1999 that could power the protos other than the vessels or the heart transcending time
Which we also don’t know how Albrecht sustained his loop
DE maybe just
Forgot
Which. 🤷♀️
Maybe we'll find out. XD
Maybe!
DE is unfortunately done with 1999 for the moment and it never comes up in the KIM messages
Eleanor asked the same question we all have haha.
So it was brought up but no answer lol
My guess is vessels or the heart is really good
Infestation transcends time
Heart transcends logic

@wild wind Eleanor has a whole conversation about this.
Oh here it is lmao.
Yeah lmao.
Heart doesn't give Void powers to us
We got our powers from Wally and could still do transference when it was damaged
But the Warframes were de-powered.
Warframes need the heart not us
The Warframes get powered by the Heart
We are not Warframes and are not powered by it
Yes
That was there point
We have a piece of Wally
The Protoframes don’t have. Anything that we see in 1999, we just know they have a connection somehow
ALL Orokin technology, Warframes included, depends on the Heart
We aren't Void tech
Except the Necramechs which apparently have an internal power source
We aren’t technology and our powers depend on our piece of Wally
I don't think Prime weapons depend on the Void, necessarily.
We also aren't Orokin technology
Depends on what ones use void tech
Not all Orokin tech uses the Heart and the void
But all Void tech uses the Heart and the void
Do any actual Void guns exist in the game not meaning Incarnons
Sirocco?
True
That’s conceptually embodied and not Orokin tech tho lol
Aeolak
Is Sirocco a conceptually embodied weapon?
Isn’t that corrupted by the void or?
Been a while since I looked at the description
Yes
It’s only found in Duviri
It also generates it’s own ammo from the void
Do any units actually use Aeolak swear I have only seen Thrax units use melee
It's a Gotva Prime that was reconstructed by the void
Right yeah!
Yeah aeolak thrax is the annoying one that clones itself to shoot magnetic beams at you
Not void tech tho
Just
Void corrupted
Is it the one Legatus use?
I mean it is a completely different weapon, just one that's half Gotva
Half gotva half whatever the heck Thrax did
They dont last long enough to read their names
True
Units in Warframe have very very short lifespans
We don't read names as we kill
We read them after we kill in the codex 
Honestly I want more thrax weapons
Same
It'd be a way to update certain old Tenno weapons too
If not just for my Duviri Xaku fashion
Like Fusilai
While you mentioned Thrax, what is the difference between the Thrax we encounter in the Zariman, the Thrax we encounter in the Undercroft, and the Thrax we encounter in Conjunction Survival?
Genuine curiosity
I want the vessels to use the archweapons like normal weapons
Tiny gun for big giant
Point of origin
The Zariman thrax are coming straight from another Zariman, aka Duviri
All come from Duviri
2 are closer to Duviri
1 is a result of Lua being in the void too long
I always figured that was a manifestation of Teshin
I figured so too but the model is of a Thrax Dax
So maybe it’s both
A manifestation from Teshin in the form of the closest thing to a Dax in Duviri
Lone Guardian is slacking at being a guardian
All of the thrax are memories of dax soldiers
Actually
With its grayscale aura I wonder if it does nothing because it’s extremely apathetic?
Could they not have also come from the book
Or like
A mix of both rather
Like, iirc they're not naturally from the Duviri Tales but came from something else
Oooo
If you can find the source on that pls ping me, I vaguely remember that but now I wanna read up on it
Could be the Drifter manifested them at first via memory and wanting to feel safe, associating the Dax with safety ad they were basically police
And Thrax just did what he does and took em for himself
A few of the retainers mention it
There's no lore on the thrax units but I kinda wonder if they're related to Albrecht somehow
“Hey kid king, look at this, these are cops you should make some” 
Ahahaha
Actually forget what I said, I forgot about mesa prime
finally know who the ''man in the wall'' is
Tonfas feel so right on caliban
Okay true
But especially on caliban
Spinny boy with spinny weapons
Also
How did Jade give birth? Did Stalker screw Jade? Can Warframes actually reproduce sexually???
-# so many questions...
to answer your second and third questions
yes, but before they were warframes. they were warframed as punishment. something with the legems
highly unlikely
Did you just, not pay attention to the parts where they explained they got warframed as a punishment
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
So she was pregnant BEFORE they got turned into frames
Yes
That explains everything.
Go to teshin in the relay
There's a thing that glows green
Interact with it
Average wf player moment
Also Ballas kept her womb and child on her on purpose as a part of the punishment.
Is Tau a place that you could (theoretically) go to?
IE: given a sufficiently powered railjack, is it not unreasonable to get to Tau via a void jump?
People did go to Tau
Hunhow didn't like it so blew up the rail
Theres a skin atleast
Elaborate, because I think I get what you're saying but I don't 100% understand
I'm talking about after hunhow blew up the rail
In the current era.
A large number of repeat junps should be able to
Current era we got Pazuul wanting to rebuild the rail and Albrecht planning to go to Tau
Space is very very very big
Cutting through the Void willy nilly can and will get you lost
So it is theoretically possible, it would just need something like a "waypoint"
Many many many many small jumps
Bouncyjack when?
Like a lanthorn
But the opposite
Those mark void locations in real space
You'd want real space in void
You could. Idk if we would risk the only things in current origin system that have a finger drive.
Well 1/2
Of the rail.
We only blew up the origin system side.
question, why is this skin broken
especially to this extent?
the yamex too, to a lesser extent
Why ask here?
cause im stupid and couldnt find the bug report section
and the background is the backrooms
w/o knowing exactly how the system works, my best guess is just that the textures share the same "id" so the spinning texture on tonkkatt makes that id spin on other skins
i imagine DE know about it, but you can go to #support-and-bugs to report it officially
DE, i require the story. what did he do with the penguins in his birthday?!
Also, Tonkett's brand new, so glitches may be found. it's likely not optimized for every skin yet
@gentle cape can i ask why you picked that as your name out of curiosity? 🤔
its my real name. im arab & it means dewdrop! (ندى in arabic!)
ah thats interisting! i am from portugal and that words means nothing thats why i asked
it means ''nothing'' not nothing- you get it ahah
no yeah i get it!! its been said to me a lot
ahah i guess it was from people like me that asked to see if you were portuguese too xD
fun fact i learned yesterday: "reyes" (the surname) & the arabic word for leader "ra'ees" (رئيس) are very, very similar... in every way—the pronounciation depends on the arab dialect tho.
yup! i had someone say "absolutamente nada" as a joke which... i think?? it means absolutely nothing...
...but yeah im arab & thats my name cknskfnsnf we're going off topic
ahahahahah thats totaly something i would do and end up embaraced to show my face around xD
That word exists in a few languages with that meaning
this looks so funny to me
Kahl of Duty
Looney tunes real?
yep
It'd be funny if in the Warframe universe it's called Looney Toons
Crazy toons, gotta stay legally distinct
I mean, in our timeline it was the Looney Tunes

It's owned by one of the most sue-happy companies, better safe than sorry
Loopy Tunes
Oh that's actually good
I'd go for Tooney Lunes, but I'm not sure that's legally distinct enough
When it’s ready
^
our last update was that they have a semi-working dev build in-office, but it is still highly prone to crashes
May u never get the mod that you want😇
Sorry, we just don’t have any exacts ):
It was the same for IOS, crossplay and such
It’s done when it’s ready
Yeah, I saw rebecca playing it on a Google pixel on stream
😔Hope thats soon
Hopefully! Trust me though, you want it to be as polished as it can be before launch :)
and ofc they’ll keep updating and optimizing it too
It’s actually insane I can play railjack on my phone
😭I played it on iOS. It's really good
Right? I’m glad I have it as an option :)
Im honestly only interested in the android version for the armor set
I love free things
I use that syndana on Saryn actually
i just did the zariman quest today, is that not literally that
was that always there or only after that quest
Always there
damn
Funny story: ||explore around and bit and you'll realize Duviri IS the Drifter's Zariman||
i mean, that does make sense
guys im in duviri and i keep getting ballas subtitles????
i am 100% certain its a glitch of some kind since i didnt hear his voice (im blasting music)
ITS NOT GLITCHED
im an idiot its the warden i think
It’s a bug the only Ballas quote you should hear is when Drifter gets stabbed in the quest same time Operator does
here i was thinking were getting like fortnite style pre new quest teases
@steel fable real talk, Minerva and Velimir seem like they'll unlock a special option in a future quest
Probably minor, but....
Watch it just being them telling us to bring Rusalka back due to a lead on her location
entirely possible heh
ble
Nah, ever since Techrot Encore (maybe even before then), doing moves in Komi causes Ballas voice lines from the Sacrifice to play
Might be intentional, might not be, I have no clue how they'd accidentally have implemented this with Techrot Encore out of all updates
thank you so much for the explanation! i was worried i broke something in my game
bugframe is as bugframe does
Only subtitles*
Subtitles like to break for some reason, you can still get the "all as one" that appears when walking by a specific spot in fortuna
I've heard dialogue too
(tekken announcer voice) round 2, fight!
You dare copy my decision to reset this week‽
(I got tired of hearing arthur believe it or not)
Mom beat The Duviri Paradox yesterday.
oh you can do that with loid too,,
truly the moment of realization
I have just reached 1999 and, as a Frost main, feel mildly cheated that 1.) married 2.) undateable and 3.) Papa Bear.
finally, i have done all main quests currently available
no, drifter is duviri
the zariman ship is just a plug between the void and the world
drifter was being dramatic
they are not literally the place of duviri
pretty much he manifested duviri
I‘ll just do a hardcore dive into the lore and figure it out myself
Yes, and they created it from the Zariman
Which this shouldn’t be confused for the scrapped concept of Duviri being made from Zariman terraforming pillars 
Now I want Terraforming pillars so I can create new islands
Totally won’t get a visit from a Wall
Can't remember if it was in here or lore we were talking about how we can use our powers in 1999, but I was mistaken. In Heart of Deimos, it wasn't that our Warframe was de-powered. We, in fact, were. So now I am looping back to "how do we have powers in 1999 if there isn't a Heart." 
It made sense in the sense of the Zariman having terraforming tech and the concept was a landmass made from math
Which
Is cool!
No it was the warframes that were de-powered
The heart powers void tech, not us.
The tenno’s void powers come from our piece of Wally that he gave to us during the deal
We are not tethered to the Heart or any void-tech
But the Warframes are.
It isn't. I'm watching someone doing the quest right now. Father says "alright, with the Void closing up, you're gonna be too weak to help in that frame."
Cuz the frame wouldn’t be functional. Tenno would be fine.
That’s why we transfer to a nechramech
He says WE are too weak, not our Warframe.
Yeah, we're not portable Hearts, we still need Void powers to work
Technocyte predates Void discovery, and we know it can be used without Void power, like when Mesa is puppeted by the Infestation.
....but the Warframe itself is also void powered, because ALL Orokin tech is
Warframe abilities are explicitly void-powered
Well not all but A LOT
The heart is shut off and it’s our frame that suffers
Not us
Heck we even still have transference
I mean sure but it's like having candles in the house despite having a perfectly good electrical grid
There wasn't Void power flowing into Mesa through the Infestation, though, and its powers still worked. Same for the Chroma that was being used by the Sentients in The New Strange.
How do you know?
The Tenno don't provide Void power to the Warframes, we're not batteries
^^
Father explicitly says it is that are too weak to make use of the Warframe, though. Not that the Warframe is itself weak.
Umbra doesn't need an Operator
That's my point, is that Warframes can still function without Void directly flowing into them through us.
And yet it’s the Warframe that’s weak
And if we were weak then why give a necramech, something far more complicated like 5 seconds later
Source
Cause
To an extent, sure
But in terms of powers? No.
Nechramechs are much less complex than Warframes. Father even makes that distinction when he calls them the first wave and says how dumb they are.
Mesa and Chroma when they are being puppeted by non-Tenno.
I think what Father's saying is that our connection to the Warframe is weakening because of the Heart closing
The necramechs aren’t voidtech, that’s why he gives it to us for us ti use
Transference is a void-based power
We aren’t batteries, we don’t supply void power
You’re forgetting that generation 1 frames were a thing :p
He explicitly says that we ourselves are too weak to make use of our Warframe.
And before TSD it's being handled mechanically
idt that was the original mesa...
Right, Transference is a void power
That would weaken with everything else
Generation 1 frames didn’t have tenno and were still void powered :p
Is this geek chat
Ye

wait there are two of you
Together we are duck
its lore chat...
It’s spoiler chat
That just means yes
lore is super geek chat
I would know
I’m so bored
same energy
my gif 😞
Someone in my squad made an interesting observation last time I ran ETA that when the Murmur show up it's a three-way enemy fight
and that led to us trying to figure out if there was any map where four factions show up for a crossfire
Ah yeah, that's one of the current things for the Exterminate, right?
Yep
Technically any Crossfire or Invasion map that the Stalker or an Acolyte shows up in. XD
When it happens in 1999 it's Scaldra v. Techrot v. Murmur
I like doing ETA. Great rewards
