I like how as the video goes on Excalibur goes from nothing to fully transmog out, I pretty much would agree with every single one of these picks if I were to level a new account only thing I wouldn't was probably the Ignis Wraith just because it needs a decent amount of Forma for me to consider using it over the Amprex.
@Yerocco Same lol, but I swapped to fulmin at around mr 8, it's rlly fun and pretty powerful imo, especially its semi auto which is like a 500 base dmg shotgun blast with just enough firerate using like 1 firerate mod
Bonus tip: You don't need to fly to Mars to check what Varzia has. Just go to the market in your Orbiter and click on the Prime Resurgence tab and you'll see everything she has and you can buy from there without having to deal with loading screens!
What, how? I recently came back and don't know what ticker is. I probably haven't played since around 2015 or so. My clan is researching it, but we haven't been able to contribute enough resources.
@@delta1525 Ticker is an NPC vendor in Fortuna, on Venus. He sells the Ignis Wraith Blueprint during the Star Days event(Valentine's Day event), in exchange for debt-bonds(Solaris United/Fortuna faction currency)
@@artificialintelligence0101 I didn't know because I wasn't around when the change happened, I just found my solo clan able to craft the thing upon reaching that rank when I came back with cross save.
@@artificialintelligence0101 whats the difference if he knew it or not, before the change it was given freely to any players that couldnt get it from their clan, so the change has little to no actual benefit except for the convinience
There is no difference he is one of those elitist jerks who like to look down on others over the pettiest of things you can tell by his statement it was filled with I'm better then you energy its honestly these types off people that make me not want to get involved with the fromsoft community despite being an elden ring player.
I always recommend braton prime and burston prime if someone newer asks. Never vaulted, fairly low MR, fairly powerful early on, and pretty good riven dispostion were good enough reasons for me before. But with incarnons now, i can't recommend them enough to someone at lower-mid MR.
@@jakehelder3254 I'd say 5-10, as the first 5 or so won't take too long if you're using a lot of new things. I'd lean more on the 'mid' than 'low', since you have to put in a fair amount of time still. Admittedly, I did think the burston was lower. Forgot it's MR 12 now 🙃
Pretty sure you can go to the prime resurgence shop (where you buy recently unvaulted relics with aya) from the market console in your orbiter/ship behind the nagigation, so you dont have to go to the relay all the time :)
I'd highly reccomend the Convectrix. An absolute Slash monster, and now it's even better since its Augment has become a permanent addition to Nora's shop.
5:28 you can also get the cedo from trade if you haven't grinded the deimos syndicate and its pretty cheap for plat or you can get a high level clan member to trade it for you
As someone just 2 weeks it's nice to see these kinds of things. My fav moment so far has to be buying a soma prime off the market, only for it to be farmable a day or two after...truly the warframe experience
The junction nodes should reward weapon, frame slots, potatoes of both kinds, etc. just to make it easier for the new player. Also more starting plat for slots too. I know nightwave is a thing but this should be considered seperately as not every is going to immediately able to do all the tasks from a newbie perspective.
Btw, The boltor is also pretty good weapon for Archon Hunter (Get The prime ones if you can, the syndicate ones works too). Tried with ivara + roar. Pretty damn good.
A point about the Kuva Grattler: It's not fantastically powerful, and it doesn't scale particularly well into the late game, but it has some specific uses that it's absolutely the best for. 1. Loot/ayatan/syndicate medallion farming. 9m explosive radius that ignores LOS is perfect for breaking loot containers, even ones behind walls, under floors, etc. Most of the time you just shoot and your vacuum picks them up without you having to drop down hatches and climbing through vents and whatnot. This is helped enormously by the 320 max ammo capacity, so you can shoot fairly care free. If you can't vacuum something up, there's a good chance it's a medallion or ayatan or plume or somesuch. 2. Defense missions and area control bounties. If you're like me and don't like running certain frames, or, like me, have sometimes trouble spotting enemies in area control bounties, Kuva Grattler is your new best friend. Just look at the minimap to get a sense where the enemies are at and start shooting, then adjust your aim according to where the damage numbers are popping up. Makes those so much simpler when you don't have to worry about missing some douche looking to shank your defense target. With the Kuva Grattler, you won't miss.
I can't really agree, having used it for a good amount of time. Once you build it well and get it going, you can absolutely one to two tap steel path enemies on a headshot.
Ferros has actually been my most used weapon in i think around 2000hours of playtime and since i finally got the tenet ferrox i got even happier since i can just hold down the trigger.
I've used the soma since it became available to me and it's a good weapon. Yes I've modded it but I've never thought I need to use something else. I would love the prime soma.
literally every warframe youtuber made a video in which they talk about how strong synapse is when it comes to single target damage, its not some secret, its just not needed so most people dont use it if you dont use Zephyr
Correction you're one of the few to ever run it nowadays. Back then, it was an overused, top tier weapon. It still is a powerful weapon though, just not used as much as it was before.
Strong recommend for the Atomos at MR5. It's the kuva nukor before the kuva nukor existed and it's pretty strong with some basic mods, incarnon upgrade down the line too!
I’d do it but the grind was to much for me so I bought mine the rng and grind was just to much and I was so behind back then I had to catch up the more people there are to give them out to players in need the better it’s a monster of a weapon for its rank and deserves more attention then it currently gets.
Fun fact on the Exergis since I like to pick it up now and then, if you use those magazine capacity mods (or a riven with the stat) that nobody ever uses normally, you can turn it into a two-shot instead of a one-shot with just 50%+ mag size if I remember right. This, obviously, helps its damage output quite a lot, especially with status builds where the second shot will be quite strong. This still wouldn't be incredible, but the weapon *does* have a small amount of innate punchthrough and a fair bit of innate slash damage, so frames that magnetize bullets like Mag or maybe Xaku can get a fair bit of value out of it.
It's my most used weapon at mr17, if you build it right it can be a beast, ive found though, it's better off buffing reload speed over having that 2nd shot and upping multishot.
Some weapons that weren't included but should be: 1) The dread, easily the best early game bow since it can one shot grineer on the kuva fortress with beginner player mods 2) the tigris, basically the hek but more damage 3) the vectis, a weapon that is just better than the rubico at this point in the game 4) ogris, see the tonkor but trade damage that you don't need on star chart for more AOE, also nightwatch napalm 5) arca plasmor, basically the best shotgun you will get before late game and 6) the miter which scales extremely well for when you start hitting tougher enemies at the end of star chart. It's also important to pick 4 or 5 weapons to keep while you're pushing through MR since you only start with ~8 weapon slots between your primaries, secondaries, and melee weapons. The ignis/ignis wraith is 100% a keeper, as is your tonkor/ogris, fulmin, and vectis/rubico. The rest are more or less up to preference.
I'd recommend shortbows to new players as they have a lot of punchtrough. When i started out it was really nice to be able to shoot trough cover so i could safely stand behind them.
the only thing i have to gripe about is that tenet arca plasmor should be in S and as a new player wanting a lets say endgame gun you should focus on shotguns which for some reason have cheap rivens
Havent played WF for at least 3 years and my clan didnt had the blueprint for the ignis wraith. Now i have it in my Dojo. i think they give it to all clans that reach clan rank 10.
I will note that you can build the Ignis Wraith blueprint at your Dojo's Chemlab but your clan needs to be Rank 10 or higher before you can research it. Source: I founded my own solo clan in December of last year to get access to Clan Research I lost due to being removed from my old clan due to inactivity, as well as access to Dojo decorating and Operation Gargoyle's Cry.
I tried getting the cinta for my new friends since it’s MR 2 and there are almost no bows in early MRs. I was a chicken without its head running around for puzzles. Took 5-8 hours I think…
The Dubba Stubba Disrespect is high in this community and I can not see why. Full Access to IPS, a filler element of your choice for free, hitscan projectiles with huge fire rate and all the multishot secondary mods can offer in addition to GunCO and a way to focus all the status on Heat to stack Cascadia Flare and you have a bonkers status gun with everything a tenno would want. The only atrocity is the name. Dubba Stubba it is and noone can tell me otherwise.
theres no disrespect, its just a fact that it is outpreformed by anything that is usually listed before there is like 10 different akimbo pistols that work completely fine so stubba isnt special in any way, but its horde shooter and aoe is the name of the game you can use whatever you like, but he is making a video, he needs to inform people on whats optimal, there is no rule set in stone that you have to obey him and cant use whats fun to you but objective quality and taste are 2 different things
@@nbassasin8092 Do they though? I remember being extremely disappointed by all Ak-X Prime weapons released in the past years (And we STILL have not gotten Akmagnus Prime). The Dubba Stubba actually works well and with the insane amount of different status effects even kills 250 Murmurs rather quickly, something I can not say my chain lightning guns can do as consistently with their enourmous health pools. Not that they CANT deal with them. It just becomes boring putting two loads of incarnon juice into a slinky.
Great video, really helpful list for each mastery rank, and indirectly tells me that Mastery Rank 14 is the maximum required rank for non-kuva and tenet.
I would also suggest the regular Fulmin at mr8. It is almost the exact same as its prime version it just has 60 rounds instead of 80 and 6% lower crit chance. While its crit chance is lower at 28% that is still above average.
I run excergis A LOT (MR 17 now) and have it built so it has 110% status, 60 something % crit plus radiation and corrosive. Hands down favorite shotgun.
Many people underestimate kitguns. My Vermisplicer is currently my eidolon weapon of choice. It has high base multishot but basically acts as a chaining or single target beam with its tendrils. The thing destroys the eidolon faster than my Burston or rubico prime. Don’t sleep on kitguns.
Isn't it bit of a tall ask of a mastery 8 player to recommend the cedo, when farming Entradi standing can feel very grindy to many people? Same thing goes for the Acceltra Disruption grind, the Exergis Argon Crystal Void farming and to a lesser extent the Lenz Cryotic Farm. You offered a lot of alternatve choices at this rank, which I really approve of! It's just that there is a lack of new player grinding friendly options
Would recommend Vectis over the Boltor at MR2, purely because the Braton is a hit-scan weapon, and the Boltor can feel a bit 'slow' with its projectile bolts
ik this is a primary list but the mk1 Bo and xoris are the actual best new player weapons. even if you hate melee those weapons are so good for so long and are dirt cheap. you can get the mk1 Bo from the opening of the game or buy it from the market for 15k credits and the xoris is from the mr4 quest the deadlock protocol.
Been looking for a video like this, still using the hek at MR10 but looking to go for a lot of other weapons, I prefer crit weapons a lot more than status focused weapons
Bubonico is hands down my favourite. Been playing the game long enough now and I hate aiming. The AoE Nerf did Nerf it's recharge but it's still my Most used weapon.
Please tell me I'm not the only one who realized that by the time they hit MR 3 or 5 that in order to get more MR you gotta rank up new weapons and frames. Yep that was me a year ago when I first started. I literally used Excal and I think boltor all the way without realizing which means losing so much time and effort. 😅
Get a Synapse riven fairly cheap makes the gun go from good to one of the best beam weapons in the game (Edit: Spirex is really good with a magnetic progenitor sounds weird but its kinda wacky)
Torid Incanon ist the peak primary weapon rn. You can delete everything with it. Second Place goes to Telos Boltor Incanon. There are my endgame monsters.
Very nice! This is needed for 2024, i'll recommend this video to all my new clanmates that need some recommendations! I suppose you're doing one for Secondary and Melee too? 👀
I'm surprised you put the flux rifle in S tier, a lot of people like to rank the plasmor about it. I agree with you btw, I'm just surprised. My flux is my go-to weapon these days.
Hello, I am a player who has hit MR 30. I know I have access to it all. But I would personally love a video where you provide proper builds for most endgame content because my brain is smooth. Just a thought because myself and a few friends are good at the "game" part of warframe, but modding with no guide is super hard for us because we lack brainpower and knowledge even at near max lvl lol . The highest lvl content I can complete reasonably is lvl 150 anything past that and weapons start to fall off hard. And even with armor strip i still get screwed by the endless eximus units
Some of the weapons you reccomended have a very small ammo pool which I can't stand. I find it makes them very difficult to play. Phntasma, Aceletra and Probicous Cernos are all very bad for this in my opinion. Personally I like the Trumna it has really big clip, good damage and alt fire that is an AoE explosion.
You can get convectrix at mr7 which is literally the best slash weapon in the game (not joking), easily carrying you all the way to level 9999, assuming you have an acolyte killer for ur melee or secondary (sporelacer exists). Dont sleep on the convectrix.
Just remember, with how far you can take weapons, the ones you personally enjoy using is best, even if it doesnt have the best DPS. Except the Stug. Avoid that one like the plague, its not worth even the mastery points to make it, let alone use it.
i had no clue that you could buy blueprints, I been playing for a week and was using MK1-barton, and thinking the game would give me weapons so when I saw credits I bough them not realising you can buy blueprints, so far this whole week I got boltor thinking it was a unlock then a mission gave me xoris and for the longest time I was wondering why my guns don't feel good, to find out the starting weapon I been using is the bad one and the actual braton was purchasbale , just now am I realising MK1 is the credit version and everything in my aresanal that is unlocked has blueprint available to buy, I legit could've gone this whole game with not knowing if it wasn't for a random video I just so happened to click on by accident
Well... my first Kuwa weapon was a Kuwa Seer AND i can say its really nice to use... it has a small AOE even... its not great but i felt was pretty good and unique tho
