On The Abandoned Mess That Is Railjack

When Railjack originally came out, it was buggy and difficult, but it was interesting. Once the bugs were cleared up (mostly things like getting stuck between missions and rewards not being rewarded), the experience was great. Railjack was genuinely challenging, and required strong teamwork in order to not get completely torn apart. The Intrinsics system was grindy, the whole process of building a Railjack was very expensive and there wasn’t really any reward for any of it apart from Mastery, but it was new and exciting and different. Over time though, the excitement died down. But at the same time,… [Continue Reading]

The Entrati Labs Are A Better Zariman

The more I think about it, the more I can’t help but shake this feeling. The Zariman is an alright place to be, but the Entrati Labs are so much cooler. It’s as if they took what made the Zariman interesting and upped it repeatedly. While the Zariman does look cool, it is mostly just ruined and destroyed. On the flip side, the Entrati Labs are basically two locations in one, a weird Orokin Frankenstein laboratory where massive body parts are being made, combined with the creepy, open air areas of Indifference. On top of that, the Entrati Labs are… [Continue Reading]

On Playing Dagath

I’ve honestly been pretty late when it comes to new Warframes. I still haven’t managed to get any Qorvex parts, despite being rank 4 with the Cavia. Sure, I can buy the parts from Bird-3, but they cost 20k standing each, and that’s a lot of standing, when bounties only give a maximum of about 5k each, assuming I do the hardest bounties. At the same time, I put off farming for Dagath for ages. It wasn’t that the farm for Dagath is hard, but it was boring. The problem was that I waited for a resource booster. It turns… [Continue Reading]

An Article About Our Trickster Warframe

I’ve always had a bit of a soft spot for Loki. When it comes to invisible Warframes, Loki was my first, and I got him pretty early on. He was also, surprisingly, the Warframe I ended up taking when I did the quest the War Within, where I unlocked my Operator’s true potential… and kinda left Loki trapped in a Grineer trash heap for two weeks while I struggled with invisible Golden Maws. But time has been cruel to the Trickster Warframe, and he’s really struggling to remain even remotely feasible these days. Today, I am going to discuss how… [Continue Reading]

Dagath’s Backstory – So Screwing Warframes is Fine…

Being a good clan warlord, when Dagath came out, we got that room pretty much instantly. Between Inquizitor and myself, we built the room, fed it the materials it needed and then wasted some Platinum on getting it built instantly. Once we had the room done, we went in,m grabbed the blueprints for Dagath and her weapon and that was pretty much it. It wasn’t until I noticed I could alter my Kaithe in that room (although my Kaithe always appears invisible to me) that I noticed that Dagath has LORE. And not just any lore, but lore read by… [Continue Reading]

My Least Favourite Warframe Mission Types

Warframe has a lot of mission types, from your basic exterminate missions to complicated messes like Alchemy and Void Cascade. However, some missions are definitely not as good as others. Here are some of the… more annoying ones. Archon Hunt Spy Spy missions in general are slightly slower paced than most. The puzzles themselves aren’t that bad, even if the AI can get to you at times, but there’s often massive stretches of nothingness between each Spy vault you need to access. Archon Hunt Spy missions are made worse in two ways. Firstly, there’s only three tile sets available for… [Continue Reading]

What Was Our Deal With the Man In The Wall Anyway?

A quick heads up, this article contains spoilers from the Whispers in the Walls quest. I’ll be discussing one of the key parts of the quest, so you should probably go and play Whispers in the Walls first. I recommend taking an Excalibur, mostly for the cool scene in the second part of the quest, mostly for the sake of immersion. There is a defense mission, but it’s Mirror Defense, so the target will protect itself once you’ve collected enough thingies. You don’t really get much of a chance to switch frame, but I also recommend shoving some mods into… [Continue Reading]

A New Username

Over the last few years, I’ve shifted away from the name Medic, instead taking on the name Retvik. My original online alias was Phovos, which isn’t always available since it’s an intentional misspelling of the word Phobos, the Greek word for ‘Fear’. The name Retvik on the other hand has always been pretty available in a lot of places, since it’s not really a name. In fact, the name Retvik comes from one of the protagonists from my fictional writing. But the thing is, I was never 100% sold on the name Retvik. I took it because my preferred names… [Continue Reading]

Okay Maybe The Zariman Isn’t So Bad After All…

For ages, I’ve been putting off the weird area and syndicate known as the Zariman. I should have really wanted to jump into this place, since it’s where a scared child made the deal with the Man in the Wall and the Tenno were born. The ship got stuck in the Void, the weird space between spaces, but has suddenly reappeared at the end of the New War, plugging a gap between our universe and the Void itself. It seems that the evil within the Void wants to escape, and the Zariman is the only thing stopping it from doing… [Continue Reading]

Operation Gargoyle’s Cry is Simple But Great

Clan events aren’t particularly common, but Whispers in the Walls has introduced Operation Gargoyle’s Cry, a new event where there is some clan participation required. Fibonacci has had the great idea of using clan dojos to set up a surveillance system across local space, in order to better track the Murmur. However, some miscalculations mean that the Murmur are also getting some sort of vision, and Fibonacci needs us to murder some Fragmented Ones in order to re-calibrate his magical Jahu Gargoyles, the devices he’s placed in our dojos in the first place. The basis of the operation is simple.… [Continue Reading]
