Ok so im super new to this game I had a couple questions.
Welcome !
Whats the number 1 on the top left when your on the universe map and ur warframe is sitting down. Its like a pic of your profile or w/e and it says 1.
This is your Mastery Rank. When a weapon or warframe level up, you get mastery points that goes toward this bar. Once you fill that bar, you can pass a mini mission that promotes you to the next rank. Certain weapons requires a minimum level in mastery rank before they can be used like the Ignis (lv4), Soma (lv6) or Acrid (lv7). At this point in time in the game, mastery rank 8 is required to have access to every weapon but you can get up to level 12 (near 13) but is mostly for show.
How do you find more warframes? I know I need blueprints etc but i guess I'm not sure exactly where to go since I just started I have been completing missions as they open up.
In general, you can get warframe parts from bosses. They simplified this recently so you will always get a random part by beating a boss. Specific boss drop parts for a specific warframe. Like say the boss of Venus only drop warframe parts for Rhino. The only exceptions are :
- Banshee : Only available from mission rewards and specific ones at that
- Vauban : Only available from alert missions and they don't come often
- Nekros : Only available from Lephantis which you need Golem Nav coordinates that you can only get from Orokin derelicts
- Prime warframes : Only available from specific void missions which requires void keys
Of course you can always bypass stuff by getting platinum but that's about it.
Should I be always fusing cards? It seems I rarely get any cards other than the common ones. Should I be going back and doing the same missions or w/e
Yes you should be fusing cards to level their power levels. Here's a short summary of what you need to know for fusing :
- To raise the level of a mod you always require double the amount of the level before it
- The fusing value of a card goes like this :
- Same card = 100%
- Same polarity = 50%
- Anything else = 25%
- The higher the rarity the higher value it will have in the fusing process i.e. common < uncommon < rare
- The higher level it has the better it will give in the fusing process but it's waste of money to prefuse card before using it
- Mods drops from specific locations, enemies or bosses
What makes a enemy drop a card?
Warframe has a god and it's the random number generator. Every time an enemy dies it initiate a drop roll that will give you loot depending on the outcome. Of course, there's rarity involved so even if say the Grineer Napalm can drop Rage, he will more chances to drop a fusion core when he drops a mod. The only warframe that can force another drop roll from a fallen enemy at the moment is Nekros with his desecrate ability and if an enemy has already dropped a mod it won't drop another one even with desecrate.
Thanks in advance. I finally brought a blue print but the item I need i think is on eris or earth and of course its locked smh I think it was the Shotgun Pistol. Oh and I'm playing on PS4 add me PSN= MrCapcom
Good luck and have fun ! Don't waste platinum on revives. Ever. If you have other questions don't hesitate to ask but
have a look at the comprehensive community wiki because DE can't be bothered to explain the game properly.
