Kaithes are Cool

Every open world in Warframe has its own type of vehicle, a way of getting around these larger landscapes. Cetus has stolen Dargyns and Archwing, The Orb Vallis has K-Drives and Deimos has K-Drives in the form of massive dragonflies. Technically Necramechs too, but they are not that fast, they’re massive, slow powerhouses. Duviri on the other hand has horses. And these horses are pretty cool. Kaithes are the way everyone gets around on Duviri, aside from walking around on foot, or being randomly teleported into combat. If you wander around Duviri, you can occasionally see stables for Kaithes. Kaithes… [Continue Reading]

In Hindsight, Duviri Is Pretty Empty

The Duviri Paradox took ages to be released. It was originally teased at the end of the same Tennocon that teased Fortuna and Railjack, both of which came out years ago. Since then, we’ve had the New War, which somewhat concludes the Lotus’s story line, as well as lots of little bits and pieces here and there. We’ve waited a long time to actually experience Duviri in its entirety. Yet, after all this time, it all feels very… empty. There’s not that much to do. I mean, yeah, there are things to do. We got a new open world, we… [Continue Reading]

My Favourite Decree Combinations so far

While you normally have the choice to use whatever you want in the rest of the Origin system, in Duviri, your loadout is mostly decided by luck. Out of the hundreds of options you have, it’s highly likely that you will get a weapon or Warframe that you haven’t really used before. To somewhat counteract this randomness, we have Decrees, which give you specific boosts to both Drifter and your Warframe. These Decrees build up over time, and can make you very powerful. Here are some Decree combinations that I really enjoy. They’re not particularly powerful, but I like having… [Continue Reading]

Where are all the new enemies?

Duviri is a big place. It’s so big that new players are immediately given a Kaithe that can fly them around. In other open worlds, you either have Archwing or K-Drives, and out of them, while you do get the K-Drive in the Vox Solaris quest, you can’t fly with it. Kaithes will fly almost straight away, and doing so is good. Duviri though is also kinda empty, with a lot of gaps between islands. So you’d think that we’d fill these big areas with plenty of baddies, right? Well, uh, not really. Seems that there’s not really many enemies… [Continue Reading]

The Circuit – Complete Randomness

One of the better things about the Duviri paradox is that it’s not all Drifter combat. In fact, there is an entire Duviri game mode that’s for Warframes only. The catch? Everything is random. Pretty much everything. To start the Circuit, you end up in Teshin’s cave with a bunch of options. You get three randomly chosen Warframes, two randomly chosen primaries, secondaries and melee weapons and that’s it. You’re not allowed companions, but your random choices can be any item in the game, even if you don’t have it. If you have a Prime version of something, that takes… [Continue Reading]

Duviri Paradox – Wait, What?

Clearly I’ve missed something when it comes to this quest. I must have missed some major story elements or something. Because what I thought happened isn’t actually what happened at all. Just a quick note, this article is VERY spoiler-heavy. I’m warning you now. SPOILERS AHEAD, PLEASE GO DO THE QUEST FIRST BEFORE YOU CONTINUE. Or not. Some people don’t mind being spoiled. Now, it turns out I missed something while playing Duviri paradox. It turns out, I was wrong about who Thrax is. Thrax isn’t just some random person. Thrax is the Drifter. Or the Drifter is Thrax. Or… [Continue Reading]

My Five Favourite Warframe Bows

In most games, bows are generally not particularly strong, at least when compared with guns and the like. But in Warframe, bows are actually really strong, keeping up and even beating standard guns. In fact, some of the strongest weapons in Warframe are bows. Anyway, here are my favourite bows. 5. Rakta Cernos Coming in at number five, we have the Rakta Cernos. Compared to the rest of the list, the Rakta Cernos is very much a standard bow. It shoots basic arrows that basically pin enemies to nearby walls. However, what makes the Rakta Cernos stand out is how… [Continue Reading]

Liches are Better Than Sisters

Kuva Liches are better than Sisters of Parvos. That’s a fact. There’s no way you can convince me otherwise. Although I’ve mostly finished with Kuva Liches, I’d much rather farm them again over going against Sisters of Parvos. Here’s why. Easier to farm Firstly, Kuva Liches are far easier to get. If I want a Kuva Lich, then all I have to do is kill a bunch of Grineer to get one to spawn. Once it’s spawned, I can then stab the poor kuvaling and see what weapon it has. For Sisters of Parvos, you have to jump into the… [Continue Reading]

On Turning My Brain Off

Sometimes, when I play video games, I want to turn my brain off. I just want to mindlessly play a game without really thinking too hard about it. Something where I can just mash buttons or hold down left click on my mouse and let everything around me explode. Actually, I say that, most days, I just want to turn my brain off and play some games. It’s my way of relaxing after a long day at work. But the thing is, not every game is compatible with the idea. Most games require some thought. One example of needing thought… [Continue Reading]
