Behold the Nuktron! Unholy amalgamation of Nukor and Latron!
In all honesty, just a little clipping issue but I found it amusing enough to share.
Like a lot of our problems: They were obviously a problem when they were new and continued to be obviously a problem up until they'd propagandized generations that grew up with them being a reality. It's not so much a matter of the people of the past being dim-witted enough to go in for these bad ideas but rather the robber barons who're interested in them spending a lot of time to normalize them in order to get much richer off of them at all our continued expense.
So, I just decided to try fighting the tank again after my last post about it. Tried to make use of all the advice I'd gotten to see if it'd be any less frustrating.
Took the Phenmor as my primary, brought Jade for flight, made a new preset on my Corufell as a fallback, and... forgot about Primary Sure-Footed. The Phenmor was OK for breaking the weak points but not great. Maybe the Felarx or Corinth Prime would've been better.
I tried jumping more and even riding the tank. It kind of worked but I still didn't like it. I think subsequent times I'll just default to cheese weapons like the Corufell. On that note does anyone have suggestions for improving my heavy-attack spam build? I'm only ever going to use it against the tank, already I'm doubting Life Strike's usefulness here.
Update: Tried the tank on hardmode. It was fun, even though I died and didn't get the sumdali.
Modern headlights are blinding to anyone not in the vehicle using them. Oncoming headlights if you're in anything shorter than whatever is producing them makes it near-impossible to see the road.
I'd have renamed it 'This plays folk music' in reference to the instrument that read/reads 'this kills fascists'.
Probably, they found some mention of a non-cis relationship and decided to blow that up to saying there's porn in the game because that's what this modern brand of bigotry does. Along with trying to legislatively ban porn, which they've previously defined as anything non-cis.
Woke is just the new 'satanic'. The bigots of the day don't care what it means, it sounds distasteful to the people who'd listen to them so they apply it to whatever they're opposed to.
The Arqubex, exalted weapon of the Voidrig, is actually the best weapon I have for breaking the Eidolons joints. Mod it like you would any other weapon for breaking their joints and it works wonders. That being said, you have to manage your energy very carefully when using that or you'll run out of energy in a full Tridolon Hunt.
Found this one and its secondary counterpart... haven't found something I want to use it on yet but it seems like it might be worth it. But being an odd mod I figured I'd post here, I'd like to hear what other Tenno think of it.
And dramatically reducing crash survival rates.
Fuck decorum. I give negative damns about it given the extensive history of it being used as a shield to protect the facilitation of what amounts to mass murder. If dark skinned foreigners did ten percent the damage cars do we'd have used some of the nuclear arsenal but because it's fucking profitable innocent people die every day and little, if anything, is done about its root causes.
Yeah, understanding how mods interact gets progressively more important as you go. I can explain how to make your weapons better, at least, quickly:
Each 'category' of damage is multiplicative to other categories while all mods within a category are additive to each-other. The categories are Base (ex Serration), Elemental (ex Stormbringer), Multi-Shot (ex Split Chamber), Critical (ex Point Strike & Vital Sense), and Faction (ex Bane of Grineer).
So, you could get the Arsenal to show you high numbers slapping all your elemental mods on a gun but it won't be as effective as using 1-2 of each category. So, make the combo element that hurts whichever faction you're fighting and use the appropriate Bane mod and you should cut through Sedna like you're back on Earth.
But there's more; There's several types of special mods that are only gotten from a few places:
You can use these various special mods to squeeze even more power out of your gear, but you'll likely need Forma to make best use of it all. And Orokin Catalysts.
All the more reason to have primary base on a freighter.
In my experience;
The best grinds are those that you're either grinding multiple things at once. For example: Doing a mission that gives parts for something you want while also doing it as a Void Rift so you collect Relics (ideally also for Prime items you want). You would also, ideally, be leveling weapons simultaneously to these grinds to be grinding three things at once but as you go it gets harder and harder to have new weapons to grind.
There are a few grinds that are still very worthwhile even when they're not multi-grinds. Getting to max rank with Fortuna is one of them. Efficient grinding of Focus for the Operator (once you get it, and the Zariman) is another.
Sounds like a good incentive to make small EMPs or malware to screw with them.
