Teach me Warframe, you lovely* nerds 2.0

Went back to it for no particular reason *has seen a billion Warframe posts here* So decided to update & play it after not having played since...October 2014. So yeah I'm a bit out of touch. I'm currently mastery rank 2 level 15-ish Volt with a Braton, Mk1-Kunai, & Mk1-Bo pole stick thing. I've just done the mission where you first encounter the...Infestation?Infested? Anyways I'd like to see what help/tips more veteran/experienced players have as well as to answer some questions I'll list further below. I think I have a small grasp to it. Certain planets have 4 certain materials which some are also on other planets but I only have 3-4 unlocked >_>. Weapons & Warframes level up the more you use them which gives them a higher mod energy capacity. Fusing mods makes them better & require more energy. [b]Questions[/b] Spoilers will contain my understanding/situation/standing about the question. •Is it worth clearing all the missions on a planet to send in an excavator? •How hard is making an excavator? [spoiler]Believe the plan I saw for it seems...to require quite a lot but I am still quite new to the game.[/spoiler] •How can I acquire platinum without paying? [spoiler]Always see people say you can acquire everything in the game without paying for it but I'm sure platinum is useful. I've seen people say you can by trading Super Ultra Rare Wukong Head plans or stuff. Quite confused on that since I have no idea how to trade at all & I'm sure it's all endgame/high level stuff. And heard sometimes from the daily log in but that's an abysmal amount. [/spoiler] •How do factions/syndicates(?) work? [spoiler]Holy hell do the guys in the fire room seem edgier than Shadow[/spoiler] •Is there any Syndicates considered just bad to be in? [spoiler]Bad as in they give nothing useful or at least very menial stuff.[/spoiler] •How does Shock,Fire,Toxin damage work. •Warframe terminology. [spoiler]I'd be reading regional/clan/trading chat & Id just see acronyms & other shot I don't understand. Have done to understand "PC" means price check. [/spoiler] •How can I incubate a Kubrow egg? [spoiler]I mean I've gotten an egg from murdering its parents & den...>_> But...no idea how to incubate it. [/spoiler] •What are important things in the...Warframe HQ? •Theres only the one HQ on earth right? Or are there ones on other planets but all lead to the same one? •What to do with the giant destruction seeking orange AI entity? Should I agree to help it with...synthesis. [quote]Doesnt seem to be a faction but seems to be the polar opposite of the other entity run faction who hates destruction.[/quote] •What to do with the...monk like guy with a bunch of holograms of himself? •How to quickly gain enough points to take the next mastery test. [spoiler]Ive just bought a new weapon & started ranking it up, but didn't see how much it helped >_> [/spoiler] •How do I get more inventory space asides paying platinum? [spoiler]Ive seen I don't have much space for my weapons & I'm bound to fill it up. [/spoiler]

[b]Questions[/b] Spoilers will contain my understanding/situation/standing about the question. •Is it worth clearing all the missions on a planet to send in an excavator?[b]Yes,alert missions will pop up with special rewards and if the node isn't unlocked you cant get the item,some of which can only be obtained via alert missions,like vauban blueprints[/b] •How hard is making an excavator? [b]Not hand,just buy the blueprint and gather the materials required,doesn't cost too much[/b] [spoiler]Believe the plan I saw for it seems...to require quite a lot but I am still quite new to the game.[/spoiler] •How can I acquire platinum without paying? [b]Selling mods or prime parts,normal weapons and warframes can't be traded. Energy mods are normally worth the most(fleeting expertise,blind rage, narrow minded etc)[/b] [spoiler]Always see people say you can acquire everything in the game without paying for it but I'm sure platinum is useful. I've seen people say you can by trading Super Ultra Rare Wukong Head plans or stuff. Quite confused on that since I have no idea how to trade at all & I'm sure it's all endgame/high level stuff. And heard sometimes from the daily log in but that's an abysmal amount. [/spoiler] •How do factions/syndicates(?) work?[b]join a syndicate and gather standing,give them donations to increase rank and unlock new rewards for yourself that are purchased with standing,each syndicate has special mods that can only be obtained via syndicate as well as 2 special weapons at the top rank, these are all worth a good chunk of platinum. Every syndicate has an opposing syndicate that you will earn negative rep with,the further in the red you go with them and the more frequent they will attack you in missions(screen flickers black and you see a squad of eximus enemies)[/b] [spoiler]Holy hell do the guys in the fire room seem edgier than Shadow[/spoiler] •Is there any Syndicates considered just bad to be in?[b]strictly depends on what you want, some have mods others don't and each has their own special weapons. I'd suggest only having 2 syndicates as more than that means 3 negative syndicates and you don't want to be attacked THAT much[/b] [spoiler]Bad as in they give nothing useful or at least very menial stuff.[/spoiler] •How does Shock,Fire,Toxin damage work.[b]each enemy type is weak and resistant against certain elements. Corpus are weak against electric and magnetic because of their shields, grineer are weak against corossive because of their armor, infested are weak against heat and gas due to being all health, in suit, slash damage is best against health,impact against shields and puncture against armor[/b] •Warframe terminology.[b]Basic stuff, PL is platinum,WTT is want to trade, wts want to sell, wtb want to buy. BP is blueprint, set means all parts required to create an item.[/b] [spoiler]I'd be reading regional/clan/trading chat & Id just see acronyms & other shot I don't understand. Have done to understand "PC" means price check. [/spoiler] •How can I incubate a Kubrow egg?[b]there's actually a quest you'll pick up after an assassination mission telling you how to do this[/b] [spoiler]I mean I've gotten an egg from murdering its parents & den...>_> But...no idea how to incubate it. [/spoiler] •What are important things in the...Warframe HQ?[b] some npcs will give quests,mainly used for trading if you aren't in a clan, also the void trader appears at one of these locations every couple weeks(he has really good stuff you can get for ducats,a currency acquired via kiosk at relays by trading prime parts[/b] •Theres only the one HQ on earth right? Or are there ones on other planets but all lead to the same one? [b]There are multiple relays, I believe there are 4 total,some require high mastery levels,like pluto, requires mastery rank 8[/b] •What to do with the giant destruction seeking orange AI entity? Should I agree to help it with...synthesis.[b]Not sure as I haven't messed with him much[/b] [quote]Doesnt seem to be a faction but seems to be the polar opposite of the other entity run faction who hates destruction.[/quote] •What to do with the...monk like guy with a bunch of holograms of himself? [b]not sure what this is[/b] •How to quickly gain enough points to take the next mastery test.[b]ranking up things is the only way to do it. If you're ranking something,take off your other stuff and run with just that weapon so it will accumulate all the xp[/b] [spoiler]Ive just bought a new weapon & started ranking it up, but didn't see how much it helped >_> [/spoiler] •How do I get more inventory space asides paying platinum?[b]you don't,you sell your ranked items you don't want,farm sellable items,sell for platinum and buy more space[/b] [spoiler]Ive seen I don't have much space for my weapons & I'm bound to fill it up. [/spoiler][/quote] Extra tip, running survival missions is a great way to level up and farm materials and credits as it goes as long as you can fight. Do some research on mod builds for weapons and warframe as it makes a massive difference. I can take a standard frame with ok crowd control and mod it out the ass, resulting in the ability to make an entire room explode by killing 1 enemy. Anyway,you'll get the hang of it. DONT WASTE OROKIN REACTORS OR CATALYSTS, make sure you are POSITIVE that you want to hold onto that weapon or frame as they cost 20 plat a pop and don't show up on alerts super often.
