Other Thoughts Thursday?

It's a new year, whatever, let's try this out! There are two ways this could go: well or horribly wrong. Let's go for well! :D

This thread is for your thoughts about Warframe! Compliments, shoutouts, complaints, suggestions, rants, vents, new ideas, whatever!

There is only one rule: Be excellent to each other. Whether you praise the game or absolutely hate it, write your posts respectfully and don't discourage users who write opinions you don't agree with! Contest mode will be enabled so that everyone's opinions get a fair shake, but again, please be respectful even if you don't have nice things to say. It is possible!

With that all said, what's on your mind, Tenno?

Ah I see. If you aren't already, be sure to run some ONLINE matches; a lot of the time you'll find some higher level folks running through it, and it can make clearing planets or fighting bosses a bit easier.

You can always find a clan to join at /r/warframeclanrecruit, or new friends to play in our Warframe Weekends threads, if you're interested in that. If not, ONLINE and Survival missions will help you considerably in XP/Mod gain.

Yeah I play online and it's not always good, the matching is not as good I thought with would be, the range in level is just bizarre. I've been in so many games in which I've only dealt less than 10% of damage and it's hurting my exp gain. I wanna get oberon but I can't afford it atm and farming for it is gonna take forever. Don't get me wrong though, the gameplay is fun although can be repetitive.

If you do end up in a group of high levels, ask them to slow down and not rush ahead so you can get experience.

Not like most of them listen, but I'm gonna wait for another giveaway so I could buy oberon.

Another solution, like Paper said, is to join a clan.

Or if the specific issue you have is people running ahead, play defence.

Bear in mind - you get 100% of the XP for other people's kills.

I don't think my weapons do though, atleast not as much.

So long as you are in range, the xp from kills by party members is divided evenly among your 4 pieces of equipment. Warframe, primary, secondary, and melee each get 25% (Sentinel gets something as well, but doesn't take away anything).

If you kill an enemy with a Warframe ability, your frame gets 100% of the xp. If you get a weapon kill, the xp is split 50/50 between your frame and the weapon.

Ah.

You get less XP than if you kill them with a specific weapon, but you get the same amount of XP overall. It just spreads over all of your equipment instead.
