syndicate – The Daily SPUF

Everything is a Syndicate these days

When Veilbreaker came out, I had a hell of a time playing the very first mission. It had a slow start, but built up in a pretty cool way, eventually ending with exploding ships and help from an unexpected place. The Veilbreaker quest was great, and I do wish that there was more of it. The characters in the Veilbreaker quest were excellent, and it set up quite a strange situation, where we sort of end up helping a quaint little base on Earth. Of course, I’m talking about Kahl. Veilbreaker is all about the plucky Grineer saving and serving… [Continue Reading]

Warframe’s Universal Medallion Sucks Ass and is Pointless

December 9, 2020December 5, 2020 Medic 0 Comments rant, syndicate, universal medallion, warframe

I’m a bit late when it comes to hopping on the Universal Medallion bandwagon. But I still feel it’s worth discussing as I consider leveling up the last two factions I’ve missed out on: Ventkids and Conclave. A Universal Medallion is an item you can exchange to a Syndicate to gain 1000 standing with them. However, out of these two factions, Universal Medallions only work on Ventkids. You can’t use Universal Medallions on Conclave. At the same time though, there’s far more problems with Universal Medallions than one would like to admit. Conclave: the elephant in the room The most-cited… [Continue Reading]

The Token Standing System of the Entrati

September 3, 2020August 31, 2020 Medic 0 Comments entrati, heart of deimos, open world, standing, syndicate, waframe

The Entrati family are the syndicate system of the Heart of Deimos. They fulfill the same role as Solaris United and Cetus. Basically, all your fishing, all your floofs, all your items come from them. And, of course, there’s a family figure there to give you guidance and bounties. However, while the Entrati do use the syndicate system of leveling up, they do so somewhat differently. Everything is done with fancy tokens. When you do a bounty for Mother, you don’t get straight up standing. You get a bunch of Mother Tokens. You can then trade the Mother Tokens in… [Continue Reading]

The Weirdness of Vox Solaris

April 19, 2019April 16, 2019 Medic 0 Comments fortuna, solaris united, syndicate, vox solaris, warframe

A lot of things in Fortuna and the Orb Vallis are very similar to things in Cetus and the Plains of Eidolon. Really, the biggest differences are that Fortuna has its own skateboarding syndicate and that there isn’t a boss that wanders around – you have to go into a specific instance to fight the Orb Vallis bosses. When it comes to Syndicates, Vox Solaris is pretty damn similar to the Quills, but it feels out of place. Quill Onkko’s little base is very hidden away, somewhat off the beaten track. It’s not even accessible until you’ve finished the War… [Continue Reading]
