For weapon/Warframe leveling, I just spam Earth Proxima Railjack missions. Piloting a Railjack with 2 gunners and an engineer and you get that Affinity reward for kills across your whole loadout Doesn't matter what you're running, its going to get levels
My only complaint is some of these frames are actually quite hard to get "solo", ie khora, clan only wukong, and disruption farming dante... then recommending weapons available after beating all the nodes. There's noting wrong with the recommendations persay but anyone this far into the game prob doesn't "need" the advice. :D
@@ArchieN1761 u did all the nodes in the game solo with rhino and broken war? good job. not trying to be defensive, but doing it all solo from the ground up with nothing isn't easy. he also showed maxed out primed mods which can take years to do/get.
@@casuallyYT solo? it actually takes quite a bit of time to grind it in normal path and solo. nechramechs arent exactly easy to kill if u don't have the good gear to do it.
As a returning player since 2016 and considering the fact that you uploaded this 1 month ago, while this video was pretty informative it ended up discouraging me to keep playing due to the overwhelming amount of stuff you just briefly summarized (since I know what it takes for all what you mentioned to happen). I know you know this is not a game where you can really summarize anything, but it would be better for your channel since the algorithm just introduced you to me. Prompts for the info still, I'll do my best to not feel discouraged for these "don't worry it's easy just do this" aura videos, and potentially lead many new players to a trap. I still consider myself a new player, so just keep that in mind.
This is a great video, but it’s definitely not a guide for beginners. A lot of these frames mods and weapons you don’t get till later into the game. Even subsuming is more for later game. Again fantastic guide but not for beginners
This is what I was thinking too. I'm a new player (played for 30 hours so far) who tends to play solo, and not hearing any of the warframes and weapons I've unlocked yet was a bit off putting.
@@kjono4611 I will say: mods matter more than weapons or frames. The MK1 Furis can become an end game weapon all through mods alone. I have over 300 hours, and I have maybe 3-5 of the mods he had shown in this video. It's def a late game guide.
8:06 Recommending Dante to new players is hilarious because he quite literally requires to finish the whole story so far, which also requires a Necromech and a Railjack and preferably a none base Amp. Though I also think getting Dante through the Marketplace with plat would make playing Warframe on easy mode.
I’ve been trying to get back into the game after not playing it since about 2015. It’s a lot to get back into and remember but the game is so great. I mainly play solo so my new clan I made has nothing so I’ve just been farming and doing some story missions. Greta content!
Me, a new player scrolling through frames looking for anything that fits the "ethereal and ghostly" vibe, finding wisp, ignorant to the internet at that point, was not ready for all the jokes and flak. I just like being a spooky, tricksy ghostie.
Love the content you make. But in this vid You’re telling peeps to spend money without telling peeps to spend money. Revenant and harrow both require a lot of access and grind just to get. And Thor’s is also locked behind a lot of access
Warframe is all about grind so be prepared for it. As for Rev & Harrow, you can get them without too much trouble. The game is fun and if you try it and aren't having fun then leave, it's not for you. I'm up to 2700 days right now and still log on each day cuz I still get something from it.
@@boomslangCA oh I know it’s a grind. However this video specifically he is trying to tell solo players to come play because it’s great for solo play then the first 2 warframes he recommends are such a grind and require syndicate rep or going deep in the star chart that a new solo player will either spend money to get em or quit before they saw them
Mesa is all you need from the first mission all the way through deep arcamedias. High damage reduction on herself, high damage through her own pistols so don’t need guns at all, plus aim bot so you don’t even have to pay all that much attention
For speed frame section I was expecting you to say volt or gauss, and nothing could have prepared me to hear wukong, solid choice but imo gauss would have been my pick
Never once before this video has anyone called wukong a speed frame. Not even mentioning gauss has me scratching my head and wondering why I'm still watching this video at all.
Great video man! One slight mistake I noticed though, you talked about Demolisher Units and referred to them as being in “Interception” mission types. ‘Tis Disruption. Other than that, solid work!
When I started playing on a team screwed me up. Had no Idea what was going on. I'd be in orbiter and a mission would start. Gave up. When returned I played solo. Gave me the time zi needed to learn the game.
I’ve been with warframe since before there was a game and while I spend most of my game time in random pugs (for anyone that’s wondering what PUG means it’s Pick Up Group, I know most gamers will be thinking der but a lot of gamers hear terms and don’t know what they mean and they don’t want to ask because of feeling dumb) I don’t really need them, I’m by no means an ace player (not even close) heck some missions are actually better if you solo them mainly spy missions yes you can do them as a group and not have to bother because someone has already beaten you to the objective but you also have to worry about them failing we’re as if I’m solo it’s only me to blame if I fudge the mission. Odds are quite good that as you are clearing out the star chart you will be doing most missions solo anyway especially some of the less farmed spots like the node where you get Atlas from, I’ve never seen another player on that mission. Then you have quests like chains of harrow I say that you should never be in a group for that one, take your time and do the missions slowly and have a look round and you will get so much more out of it also turn of any music or videos you are watching that mission deserves your full attention.
Thank you for your content! I really like it, and hopefully you'll read it. Please, keep making videos, they once got me through some pretty intense stuff, and now they just provide me with very important game info. Thanks again!
Woe, thank you so much ❤️ This really means a lot. Whatever you were dealing with, it makes me super happy to hear that my content helped you get through it. Happy to have you around ❤️
Note to the players who want to try the Banshee Prime build - highlighted at 9:53 - out: you will have to use at least 1 Forma in order to get all the mods to fit (the configuration on screen is impossible with 0 forma Banshee Prime unless I'm missing something). You can alternatively remove Vigilante Pursuit from the build, and you will end up with 1 mod capacity to spare. Cheers
@@armyfreak9389 bless titania mains, i tried playing her once and she's so much harder to navigate with than wukong's cloud this one time a volt was spaming his speed and i legit just got out of my pixy form cause i just couldn't do it holy shit
Don't worry, that's totally normal. The game is absolutely amazing, but does a terrible job of explaining itself. At the start your best goal is to open as much of the star chart as you can and unlock as many planets as you can. The game really picks up once you reach Uranus.
I'm happy that you're enjoying the game so much :D Don't worry, Warframe is like a Math Class in University. You go to each lecture and you don't understand anything and after some time there is this magical moment where all of the sudden it all starts making sence ;)
@@MHBlacky_ENG understandable. Unfortunately it seems most people don't understand how to get the most out of modding and are too scared to experiment to figure it out.
This is a lot of great stuff! I just started the game and, for me a lot of the fun is in the exploration. And, as I'm playing through the story solo I'm sure I'll revisit this video many times. I started with Volt and I'm working my way up to get Loki, Ivara and Ash to decide which stealth frame I'll enjoy the most. Although, as I did the Jackal for the first time, and had a great fight again Spector Rhino at the relay, I think I'm going to farm him up in order to have a bit of a tankier frame for when it's needed. I'm very new to the game but I really love the depths of it. Also, again, this is a great video!
I know Many people who ferociously disagree with this but the only thing that can kill revenant is violence Why violence? Well because of one aspect violence's ability to disable abilities and revenant's mesmer skin is an ability Sure violence would have to get within 20 meters of revenant but it still doesn't change the fact that revenant needs to keep his distance from violence Just kill violence before he uses silence? Sure same with any acylote but if you can't kill but he does it then he is a threat therefore the risk of death
For revenant, go 328% strength + pillage + corrosive projection. (this comment was written pre-Jade update and the relevance of armor stripping might have changed) Best solo frame is Octavia, I soloed the entire SP with her to prove a point.
I started playing back in 2017 and I remember not even bothering looking at guides or anything, so i just played solo and only used Excalibur Exalted Blade until I reached mastery 8... 😆 Only played solo back then, but now I mostly play with random squads. It's much more relaxing to me
As a dedicated solo player I can say that this should have been organized by progression, which also changes which frames to prioritize and when. Once finished with all main quests I agree with most of this. Unmentioned great solo frames: Nova for early game, Ash once you get Railjack, Inaros, and Titania are very good for solo play.
Heyho, for Hounds the only difference is the specific Skill Mods that they come with. Outside of that though it doesn't matter which one you run. I have a section about Hounds in my Top 10 Companion Video from 2023. Maybe that can be helpful ;)
My only take on this would maybe have been to add a star chart build as well reason being is if someone watched this who just started and buys one of the recommended frames they probably wont have access to the cards meaning the primed builds become a headache to look up each card to see where to find them. Then if they want to they can look up the beefy build video that is the "build" with primed cards idk just a thought but like the vid
My favourite starter frame which even holds up in steel path is and will forever be mag. She's awesome! Oh and I agree to everything so said about Harrow but please also mention the absolute drag that comes with farming him 😂 Rather go farm khora while making a ton of credits
"If you dont have the Hate just get the Reaper Prime" LOL its like the Tip: just Roll Glaive prime. Instead you Could Communicate that you can build youre own Scythe with the same Properties and run a zaw instead wich is way easyer to get you hands on. (+arcanes)
There isn't anything in particular that's "wrong" with this guide but so many of these frames are not frames beginners would have access to once starting the game. I know you didn't advertise this as a "New Player Guide" It's the kind of video a new player would probably stumble across looking for Warframe guides and click on. And by the time they've gotten far enough to get some of these frames, they've probably stumbled and bumbled along, maybe joined a clan, maybe quit playing Warframe altogether. Especially since even the base model of many of these frames (like Revenant) needs some significant investment in farming. Just something to be aware of.
Firstly I am so happy to see your membership and channel grow. I will become a member soon😀 you make amazing content and I always find something helpful. I also prefer volt for speed running as I get stuck in weird places with wukong, although he is very fun to play. Farming with nekros is fun, but I haven't tried khora yet. I will have to get her and try your method as well.
As someone who does a lot of solo work (but is fine playing with randoms) Nezha has been my main ever since his rework years ago. His 1 gives him faster movement and a nice semi area denial ability (surrounding defense objectives with fire works pretty well usually). His 2 I often ignore but the buffs it gives you are useful. His 3 is god tier basically making you immortal in a lot of circumstances and also prevents status effects like slash from hitting your health. His 4 is decent as far as immobilizing crowds is concerned though admittedly there are so many units who resist CC abilities these days it has somewhat lost its luster but I still absolutely am and will remain a Nezha main.
SAME, I’ve been playing solo just nezha almost my whole time playing. I think his 2 is actually pretty useful especially after his 4 because it shoots out more and they all get burned + take more dmg + drop health orbs which are rly good with equilibrium. For me atleast I can basically use the 2 to have unlimited energy
As a strictly solo player, I can safely say it is 100% doable. I've personally been having a lot of fun playing as Vauban and Gara. I'm in no way an end game player (I've only started to reliably do arbitrations, and just killed my first kuva lich) but I'm just having a blast exploring new weapons and warframes I haven't got yet.
I didn't realize how many people there are that rely on everyone else to do their missions. I am 100% an end game player, and 100% solo as well. You can do anything you want solo, you may just take a bit longer and a bit more optimization than other people.
Gara is one of my favs just because of the infinite scaling on her shatterstorm. Yeah it's annoying when it drops and you have to build it back up, but once you get into the groove and you're doing millions of damage just running past enemies, it's very satisfying.
idk why am I watching this as an mr30 with literally everything done in the game other than the mr grind, but its always interesting to see these type of videos, wish I could erase my memory and play warframe for the first time again
I will share some encouragement - I'm a legendary 1 and I have soloed the entire game, including all of Steel Path, all of Railjack etc. I solo Eidolon's as well. I had clan mates, but they don't play anymore. So, if you are like me and like to be able to manage your own time, you can do all of it. EDIT: I agree with the channel owner - you have to figure out frames for mission types. For example, I use Khora for Excavations, and maybe for Interceptions. I use Revenant for anything tougher - Archon hunts, for example. But I'm a Revenant, Khora, Saryn, Trinity, Zephyr, Gauss, Wisp player. You will need Ivara for certain Riven challenges, as another example. I use Titiania for the weekly Ayatan run and Inaros for any hijack mission. The Tenet and Kuva weapons are great working weapons and Lichs/Sisters are easy to beat - also great for ranking up weapons. Do the sorties every day, arbitrations when you can, and get weapons and mods and you will be able to do anything given enough practice, patience and time.
Thank you for sharing! I hope any Tenno out there struggling can be encouraged by your experience to see that it's all possible even without a dedicated premade team or Clan. Big Cheers, mate
LR4 here and I did mostly the same cause majority of my friends either quit before or played when I was on hiatus lol. I rarely partied cause let's be honest, parties especially pubs are a liability rather than an asset especially in Spy missions. Thank goodness now a bunch of my friends are back so I got a semi-static to run deep Archemedia with on Sundays cause it's easier to be on voice chat coordinating the run. Well for Archon hunts, pubbing the defense, mobile defense, Interception, or Excavation mission isn't too bad. Those I pub so it's a bit easier than constantly babysitting stuff but after that every other mission, I tend to solo Archon hunts as well.
One of my favorite Helminth abilities is Hideous Resistance. It cancels status effects--which really comes in handy, especially in dark sector missions where you're constantly being swarmed by things spewing toxin clouds. The best part is that it acts like Rhino's overshields--in that you can activate it when you start the mission--you don't need to wait till you're taking damage. It has a counter that goes down every time it protects you, so just glance down occasionally to see if it's got remaining charges or needs to be recast. Also, because you only need to cast it once or twice a mission, instead of every time you're exposed to a status effect, it's very economical, energy-wise.
Like I have a friend who got overwhelmed by most syndicates, and I get it, it's a hassle and by far the slowest and most boring aspect of Warframe but hasn't stop me yet.
Same here. I started with two friends years ago and now I'm the only one left. I am very thankful for this time though. Our competition among each other has driven me to the place that I am at in the game right now. Without them this channel would probably not exist :O
@MHBlacky_ENG A friend who at the time inspired me to play more in-depth now has stopped playing and he was miles ahead of me. Now I'm the one who is ahead and I use it as a way to teach him and guide him through what's good and bad. I'm grateful for your channel it gives me information to then pass along to friends who are interested in the game.
heres the thing with that, you use her 1 to stay permanently in the air which gives you a 150% crit chance to weapons, so you are completely losing that passive almost
I normally play in a squad with my wife and friends, but I usually have no problems doing the missions solo. Having good specters in your loadout definitely helps. Especially if your warframe isn't very tanky. I tend to use Wisp (Prime) as a specter for free healing and the damage buff. I also wanted to mention that you forgot one very important warframe when it comes to speed-running missions: Titania. I know that Razorwing can be a bit difficult to control (especially in tight places), but Titania is extremely fast at doing the capture missions for farming or opening relics. I would also suggest getting at least one stealth warframe, if you don't dislike that kind of gameplay. My number one is definitely Ivara. Not only for spy and rescue type of missions, but also for "cheesing" some difficult content. For example, killing kuva Liches with Ivara is a joke. Equip Preparation, activate Prowl, land some headshots and you're done. A great secondary weapon I discovered a bit late is Ocucor with its Sentient Surge augment. It literally melts all the fodder enemies on the normal star chart and works well even on the Steel Path. And finally, my favorite "melee" weapon is the Xoris. If you mod it the right way, you can clear entire rooms of enemies in a matter of seconds, making most of the missions a lot easier.
Amazing! I'm happy you have your wife and friends playing, too :D Specters are a huge help for sure. I've heard Dante with his Overguard can be very helpful as well ^^ When it comes to Titania, well yeah, taht was an oversight on my part. Definitely she's top for speedrunning ;) Ocucor, interesting. Never tried it. Will do though. With the Tenet Glaxion Meta coming as a primer soon I am more looking into Secondaries for damage dealing ^^ Thank you for sharing all your experience and insight
The Kompressa is also an insane primer because generally the mob enemies aren’t the problem it’s the big tough ones every so often so it works really well
Well after getting a friend to play warframe with me. A lot of the beginner missions are solo which made it sad cause i wanted to run him through the mechanics and tricks you can do.
I'm okay with playing with random squads. I actually prefer it for some missions such as defense or interception missions. I will only solo for spy missions because the other squad members might not understand stealth as much as you.
If you have access its just better to replace his 4 with roar or nourish. You aim for ability strength anyway just add some duration and you good to go.
A Kuva Lich? You can get special weapons from them. Some are pretty good, some are pretty bad lol. The weapon also gets a special effect depending on the warframe you used to kill them. Excalibur gives electricity, Khora gives toxin, and Jade gives heat. Those are just a few examples off the top of my head.
kuva is for rolling your rivens for mod stat buffs or even defects. be careful though; each riven roll doubles in kuva cost, same way endo & credits are doubled each mod level upgrade.
My solo picks are: Warframe: Rhino: You get him early on, and there simply isnt a mission or stage of the game, Rhino wont be good in. Early on simple armor and strengh mods, and you set. Mid game, max strenght with umbral mods, end game, same mid game build but now with 2 tau blue shards for armor, and 3 tau red shards for strenght, and his reinforcement stomp, and ironclad charge. And you got a tank with 100k plus overguard, that remove the need for faction mods, as roar gives you 200% damage boost that work like a faction mod. Primary: Latron incarnon, its a really damn strong gun, that is overlooked alot, so it has good riven stats. Lex incarnon: Its a plasmor as a sidearm, that deals way more damage than the tenet arca plasmor, and again good riven stats. Melee really anything that has slash and crit. Beause pure raw damage, and the slash progs take care of most things, run a hound, and condition overload, and the problems raw damage has now and then, are offset.
@@animelytical8354 the hound is loki with a primer. It has an ability where it shoots out a ball that deals status. Then theres a mod that reset the ability cooldown if you kill a enemy with 3 or more status. So it pretty much always spew status. And disamrs with another ability, it also armor strib every time it attacks. MCgamerCZ does have a good hound video.
Rhino with nourish + roar + iron skin, you press 3 buttons once a minute and have all the damage, and defense you will never need even until level cap. Get the Soma -> acceltra/prime -> incarnon for steel path.
Hey, that's fine. If you prefer it with randoms then absolutely go for it ;) I personally like the feeling of not slowing anyone down with whatever I do. But sure, mission types like Defense, Interception and so on I also always do that with randoms ;)
i'm happy to see Harrow and Zephyr being recommended, they are amazing frames for solo. Nidus "is" a popular choice though i'd argue he needs to make use of the Larva Burst Augment and a Throwing Glaive. i forgot who recommended that build of Nidus but i tried it and it was really cool. Just have to get 15 stacks... My "go to" frames for when i need to do "actual content" and i might be solo are Titania, Volt [Prime], and Wukong. i use Saryn's ability on Volt, Voruna's ability on Wukong, and Titania uses the special hemlith ability "Something Munitions." For Titania (and Mesa), i use the [MK-1] Furax [Wraith] with the amalgam mod you get on Jupiter part of getting the parts for Wisp, another really good frame but as a specter or if your aiming to not play solo. i also recommend using the Vasca Kavat as your companion as it's the only one that truly makes sense with Titania. My normal loadout situation is; Primary: Bubonico/Phantasma [Prime] Secondary: [Kuva] Nukor/ [Tenet] Cycron Melee: [Prisma] Ohma, or Kronen [Prime] i refuse to use incarnon weapons. Regardless if i'm playing solo or not, i found using the Moa was the most advantagous companion choice unless i intend to do some resource farming (Smeeta Kavat) or an endurance run of some kind (Most any sentinal or use Vasca Kavat). While everyone loves the Cipher item, believe it or not there are game modes you might find yourself in and you CANNOT use ciphers. The moa has a mod that makes it hack consoles for you in about the same amount of time it would take you to use a cipher. Loki cannot Switch Teleport with the Moa companion even if it's your own, how do i know that? Trust me. i do want to touch on why i did [Prime] for Volt and not the other frames. Regular Titania and Wukong, while not as effective as their prime variants (because duh) the difference between Volt and Volt Prime is so staggering they may as well be considered different warframes. Thank you for reading all this.
Absolutely trolling to not mention limbo. He is the answer to those 25% of missions that are more difficult solo. You can beat steel path interception missions just standing still in the middle of the tile with every enemy locked down.
Personally I recommend selling some Prime parts and getting Dante and Voruna from the Market, both don't require much investment and completely self sufficient, no guns or melee needed. Technically it applies to Mesa and Octavia, but those are the obvious choices. Voruna in particular is super underrated, with a very simple build she deals hundred of thousands of damage and huge bleed procs, though for best results you do need the Augment, which you can trade for.
interesting! i just claimed my ivara prime from foundry yesterday and already have her maxed, i'll probably focus on getting one of these frames to help me through my solo play :]
@KungFuBarbie-pc7hb sure man running around literally invincible with torrid incarnon is waaaayyyy less braindead then playing octavia..... Whole game is braindead but damn the Octavia slander was not needed lol
I was struggling at the beginning having only Excalibur. Joined a chill clan and now I have like 10 frames just sitting in forgery, having mere 3 frame slots. And since I spent so much time farming them, I don't want all that effort go to waste by selling them.
Amazing! Happy you found some nice people to chill with ^^ Don't worry about the Frames. You'll get the slots to keep them all over time and until then you can just leave them in the foundry ;)
