August 22, 2023August 14, 2023 Medic 0 Comments newbie, recommendation, suggestion, warframe

It’s very easy to get lost in Warframe, especially as a newbie. There’s a lot of content to do, and it requires patience. It also requires being careful, especially early on. Here are five things you should avoid as a Warframe newbie. Never buy weapons from the store with Platinum The majority of weapons in Warframe can easily be earned for free. And a large number of them are available in the Warframe store. But you need to be careful though, because buying a weapon from the store is VERY expensive. Instead, make sure you buy the BLUEPRINT of a… [Continue Reading]

5 Basic Things a Newbie Should Do in Warframe

August 21, 2023August 10, 2023 Medic 0 Comments guide, newbie, suggestion, warframe

Being a newbie in Warframe is difficult. There’s so much to do, so many things flashing at you, so many urgent things. Once you’ve gotten past Vor’s Prize, you’re basically left to your own devices, in a game that feels very unfamiliar. Luckily, there are plenty of things a newbie can do to get themselves started. Follow the Star Chart Unlocking planets is your best bet as a new player. Unlocking planets unlocks new resources and new missions to obtain Warframes. You also unlock various quests as you travel across the star chart. This process is somewhat slow, but you… [Continue Reading]

A New Beginning with the Duviri Paradox?

March 17, 2023March 5, 2023 Medic 0 Comments duviri paradox, newbie, tutorial, vor's prize, warframe

Warframe has always had a problem with actually getting into the game. Once you’ve completed Vor’s Prize, it’s a long, often convoluted journey even to complete the star chart. This means that many new players never actually get to try the cool things, like Necramechs and the New War. A lot of the new, fun and interesting stuff actually has a lot of requirements. The New War in particular required both a Necramech and a Railjack. Both of which are… Not so much end-game content, but still pains in the ass to obtain. Railjacks in particular have had their costs… [Continue Reading]

How I’d Change Warframe’s New Player Experience

February 2, 2022January 28, 2022 Medic 0 Comments newbie, quest, tutorial, warframe

I won’t deny it, Warframe’s tutorial missions suck. You are very quickly left on an island, not really sure what you can do and where you should go. Sure, there are signposts somewhat pointing you in the right direction, but most of Warframe’s information and guides are outside the game itself. And having barely any inventory makes things worse. So here is how I’d improve the new player experience. Because, frankly, the recent introduction changes are mostly cosmetic. They just added a cool trailer at the start of the game. Give more weapon options Funnily enough, there’s actually quite a… [Continue Reading]

The Best Ways to Help Tenno Newbies

January 14, 2022January 8, 2022 Medic 0 Comments newbie, noob, warframe

I’ve always been the sort of person who is just happy to help. I enjoy helping and assisting others. The desire to help others spreads into the video games I play. There’s a reason I normally play as support characters. And Warframe is one such game, even if I’m not playing a support Warframe. That’s a good thing, because the new player experience is rather hit or miss. Anyway, here are a few ways you can help newbies and make the most of their experience. Take it slow Most newbie Tenno are quite slow. They haven’t mastered Warframe’s rather varied… [Continue Reading]

Warframe Tips for Free-to-Play Space Ninjas

July 23, 2021July 16, 2021 Medic 0 Comments advice, newbie, tips, warframe

At first glance, Warframe can seem rather pay-to-win. However, if you dig past that even a little, you can easily climb ranks and grab new gear and weapons. All it takes is a bit of time and patience. But, while you wait, here are some tips and advice on how to make the most of an F2P experience. Starter Platinum When you first start playing Warframe, you actually start off with 50 Platinum. This Platinum can’t be traded, but it is enough for a handful of purchases. Before you get too excited though, it’s worth looking at what you can… [Continue Reading]

Several Easy Warframe Weapons that will get you through the entire Star Chart

July 7, 2021June 30, 2021 Medic 0 Comments advice, guide, help, newbie, noob, tip, warframe, weapon

It’s hard to choose weapons in Warframe. Even early on, there are so many options available to you. But with so many choices, and even more as you level up, it’s hard to know what weapons are genuinely good, and which ones suck. Luckily, I have created a list of a handful of weapons you can use, based on my own personal experience. Lex At a price of 50,000 credits, the Lex seems expensive, but it’s worth the price. This little MR3 hand cannon will do wonders for you. Not only does it deal pretty good damage, but the Lex… [Continue Reading]

A Cheap Coward’s Guide to the Steel Path

May 4, 2021April 25, 2021 Medic 0 Comments guide, newbie, specter, steel path, tips, tricks, warframe

The Steel Path can seem intimidating. All enemies are over level 100, and they’re all heavily armoured. The Corpus have tons of shields and the Infested are… Well, actually, the Infested are fine, as long as there are no Swarm Mutalist Moas around. Because they give the Infested tons of armour. Either way, the Steel Path is not a place for casual players. However, you don’t need to spend forever formaing your gear and making super OP ultra umbral forma builds. In fact, you can get through the Steel Path very cheaply. But only if you are patient. Can’t hit… [Continue Reading]

An MR4 Volt’s Little Adventure

March 23, 2021March 17, 2021 Medic 0 Comments newbie, smolt, warframe

The other night, I was playing Warframe. It was way past my bedtime, but I was in voice chat on one of the discord servers I frequent. Things were good, I was doing fissures. Two of the people I was chatting with jumped into Warframe too. One of them wanted to farm Khora. The other one had nothing better to do and neither did I. So we headed to Sanctuary Onslaught. What happened next was a little… too wholesome. For once, this is about a Volt that isn’t me. Okay, sure, I was playing Volt at the time, but this… [Continue Reading]

On Passing The Help Along

February 27, 2021February 21, 2021 Medic 0 Comments newbie, ramble, warframe

A lot of my early hours in Warframe were spent in a daze. I was dragged from one node to the next, not understanding what I was doing. Despite having a high MR player helping me, I struggled greatly. In fact, I actually rage-quit a few times, especially after being dragged into a Sortie at a fresh MR4. Still using the MK1 Braton. I didn’t actually hit my Warframe stride until quite a bit later on. But along the way, I received a little help from complete strangers. All sorts of help. And not just help with missions! Funnily enough,… [Continue Reading]
