  • Operator animations also need a rework cuz they’re janky as fuck. The forward roll is the main reason I run Drifter all the time but I do not miss janky runs.

    I still think my number one peeve was when they first dropped Orphix venom is also when they dropped the Transference Static debuff too. With one hand they expected us to use Op a ton for this new game mode and with the other they punched us in the goddamn face if we were bad it. It just really soured Op for a long time for me.

    Duviri and shit has helped, but Transference Static is still feels really bad and feels ungodly punishing for no reason. Especially with the bandaid fix Arcanes and shit for it too. Like why should I have to give up an entire gear slot to patch over something that shouldn’t exist in the first place?


    1. Not really no. Being a fragile human isn’t great. I do prefer Drifter because I like being able to forward roll though.
    2. Enough to get a 747. Farmed another amp that I still have before I had the rep for 747 but I don’t remember what it is. I cannot be arsed to farm another. Quill/Vox rep is pain.
    3. Do have arcanes. Magus Vigor (5), Emergence Savior (3), Eternal Eradicate (5), Enternal Onslaught (2). Are they the best? Dunno, don’t care. They’re what I have.
    4. Madurai for the that sweet, sweet DPS boost. Maxed out, bought multiples of the million point cosmetics and shit.
    5. Got most of the schools maxed out. Got cosmetics from like 4 of them even.
    6. I put lenses on stuff and don’t sweat farming focus. Get what I get when I get it.

    Operator/Drifter functions well enough. But I wish it had some QoL tweaks like moving a little faster, being a little tougher, just removing Transference Static. I only die in Op in game modes that require me to use it a lot coughOrphixcough and it’s not my fault Op is fragile as fuck. Stop punishing me for it in game modes that require it’s heavy use.

    I do like to use Op to clear mag anomalies and it’s got some utility for hosing down Archon hunt adds. I also enjoy Drifter mode in Duviri but I fucking hate Sirocco. I really hate that it doesn’t pull damage from my current amp load out. I’m fine with it continuing to use the pistol mechanics but for the love of god let me use my actual Amps stats. Especially on Steel Path. The Sirocco is so bad with no decrees. Maybe getting to use Nataruk like TNW?

    Operator/Drifter could use some gear access tweaks I think. Both in Duviri and regular starchart. Maybe mods for Amps? A few more quest reward amps? The default amp is trash and trying to rep grind with it is absolute ass. Sirocco is a nice little boost from it but we could use another upgrade or two to fill the gaps as who wants waste rep buying mid amps if you just hold out a little longer to get a really good one?

    You need a fair amount of skill and gear to solo archon missions. They’re pretty hard. Don’t be afraid to ask for help.

    Somethings you may want to grind for the gear to do them more easily:

    -Arbitrations: (clear every node on regular star chart to unlock) A lot of good mods for higher level builds such as Galvanized weapon mods, Rolling Guard and Adaptation. Some mods from the mission, some come from the Arbitors of Hexis shop (does not require arbitor rep).

    -Zariman: (Angels of Zariman quest) Grind up the faction rep and buy good weapons(Laetum, Phenmor) and good arcanes.

    -Duviri stuff: Some of the Incarnon weapon variants are very good from SP Circuit. Reg Circuit can get you new frames and augment mods. Also other loot like new arcanes come from circuit filler loot or can be bought from the resource shop if you do the free roam missions.

    -Lich/Sisters: Kuva Hek is a popular choice, but the 1 hit kill build is fiddly and takes some power house mods you might not have without doing other stuff first. Radiation is generally the best choice for Archons so check the progenitor list to correctly spawn a lich with the desired element base.

    There’s a lot of good weapons for various things from Liches/Sisters.

    -Helminth Uprades: (Deimos) Get the upgrade segments for your Helminth so you can mulch warframes. Every frame as 1 power that can be learned by mulching which can then be used on other frames. Xata’s Whisper (Xaku) and Roar (Rhino) are big DPS boosting powers and really useful for Archon hunting.
