“Welcome to my throne!” Inaros beamed as he welcomed Volt in with open arms. The room was filled with Ayatan Sculptures, all thrown into a vaguely chair-shaped heap. Around the base of the Ayatan heap was a small collection of noggles, most of which were of bobble-headed Inaroses. “What do you think?” Volt glanced around the rest of the room. Everything was black with red highlights, all matching a very specific theme. “I think I left you alone for too long. I was gone for a few days and boom, you’ve made yourself into a tank and turned into the… [Continue Reading]

Unpopular Opinion: I have no issue with Riven Mods

January 8, 2020January 4, 2020 Medic 0 Comments empyrean, railjack, riven mods, warframe

With the current debacle about how RNG is ruining Warframe and how the randomness and difficulty of obtaining good loot with both Kuva Lich weapons and ephemeras and the randomized stats on dropped Empyrean stuff, Riven mods often get referred to as even more bad RNG that started all this randomized loot messiness off. But frankly, Riven mods aren’t that bad. At the very least, they are not Team Fortress 2 Crates levels of bad. Allow me to explain why I think this. First though, we do need to admit some problems with Riven mods. Because while I don’t have… [Continue Reading]

The Troubles With Shopkeepers Who Bring Items Every Two Weeks

January 7, 2020January 3, 2020 Medic 0 Comments baro ki'teer, void trader, warframe

The idea of a secretive, mystical trader who comes along at a set time every couple of weeks, selling a rotating stock of rare items not available elsewhere, sounds like a great idea in a game, as it inspires people not just to check back regularly but to keep on playing so that players can afford to buy the rare things this magical trader brings. Baro Ki’Teer is one such trader. A stuck-up bastard who pisses most players off in three ways: his wares are very expensive for new players, middling players wait for weeks and months trying to get… [Continue Reading]

A Dramatization of A Second Dream

January 3, 2020December 29, 2019 Medic 0 Comments newbie, second dream, silly, smolt, story, warframe

“Hey, is that your friend there?” Khora nudged at Volt as they both exited Khora’s bright pink Railjack. Khora herself was decorated in white and red, with her pet cat Venari’s metallics matching, but the railjack was so bright that it put Volt and his yellow-ness to shame. They had just finished a mission that was somewhat longer than they had expected, flying through the scary, red place known as the Veil Proxima and finding themselves boarding a very strange and, uh, ‘flower’-shaped ship. Overall, it had been a successful mission, but the ship had disappeared and Khora and Volt… [Continue Reading]

Holy Resource Costs, Batman! – The Insane Upgrades and Resource Costs for Railjacks

December 27, 2019December 23, 2019 Medic 0 Comments empyrean, railjack, warframe

So you’ve been playing with your Railjack for a bit and the first two things you will notice are that the base ship has basically no health and that the starter guns are fucking awful once you’ve completed the first or second missions. That’s alright! Because there’s two great ways in which you can get better gear! The first way is simple. Get your clan to fund all the new Sigma MK gear in the clan dojo! You can get this gear in order, starting with crappy starter stuff, then MK1 versions of that stuff, then MK2, then finally MK3… [Continue Reading]

The Adventures of Volt and Smaller Volt

December 24, 2019December 19, 2019 Medic 0 Comments silly, story, warframe

“Hey, space mum!” Volt rolled his neural sensors as he received another message from an Excalibur he had recently taken under his wing. Unlike the first Excalibur, who seemed to know what he was doing and just lacked the firepower, this Excalibur was filled with questions. Questions and annoying nicknames for Volt. “Please don’t call me that…” Volt sighed, before perking up. “How you doing?” “I’m doing great!” the fresh, young Tenno messaged back. “I just finished an exterminate mission and now I’m going to do a sabotage mission on Mercury!” “You need help?” Volt asked. “Uh, no, but I… [Continue Reading]

Things That Empyrean Really Needs

December 23, 2019December 19, 2019 Medic 0 Comments empyrean, qol, quality of life, railjack, suggestions, warframe

I’ve been playing quite a bit of Empyrean now. It’s an amazing experience that’s full of bugs and things blowing up, as well as lots of hectic running around. While the bugs will eventually be fixed or at least minimized and made less common, like the weird stuck-on-crewship bug, there are a lot of little QOL feature things that Empyrean needs in the meantime. We’ll get more missions soon, we’ll get Corpus, Infested and Sentient missions soon, but these suggestions are all little changes that would make Empyrean smoother. Ability to designate the role you want There’s really only four… [Continue Reading]

Erra – A New Hidden Quest and/or Cinematic

December 22, 2019December 20, 2019 Medic 0 Comments empyrean, new war, warframe

Turns out that there’s a hidden quest that came alongside the Empyrean update! Well, not really a quest, more like a short cinematic teaser that is locked away in some retched corner of the Veil Proxima. I should point out now, this is massive spoiler material. Material I shouldn’t even see, because I don’t have Intrinsics 7 yet, a clan mate who has rushed through everything helped me and other clan mates get to the mission. But more on that later. Spoilers ahead! The cinematic is about 8 minutes long, including loading times. It really is just a cinematic. I… [Continue Reading]

Medic’s Misthoughts on Melee 2.999 Recurring

December 21, 2019December 14, 2019 Medic 0 Comments ash, melee, warframe

I’ve been meaning to mention the melee changes that came with the Old Blood update for a while, especially since it made up at least a quarter of the Old Blood, aside from the Liches, the Ember and Vauban reworks and the vast amounts of other changes they made. Essentially all melee weapons got reworked, with new animations and new buffs and stat changes and all sorts. So, uh, how is it? I, uh, am not completely sure. I want to say that Melee 2.999 is great, especially since Melee 2.998 was a bit all over the place and unfinished.… [Continue Reading]

Warframe, Over 3000 Hours Later…

December 19, 2019December 16, 2019 Medic 0 Comments introspective, looking back, warframe

In July of 2016, I wrote an article about Warframe as I was just starting to get into it. I titled that article “Warframe – Still Not Sure” because, at the time, I was unsure whether I would continue playing Warframe. Well, over 3000 hours later, I can tell you that the article in question, which is still available to read, has aged incredibly poorly. The most obvious thing is that I’m still playing Warframe. I’m playing a lot of Warframe. In fact, lately, it’s the only game I play on a regular basis aside from Pokemon Go. And it’s… [Continue Reading]
