What is Warframe?
Warframe is a free to play, 3rd person co-op shooter, developed by Digital Extremes on the Evolution Engine and is available for PC, Xbox One, and the PS4. In Warframe you play as a member of the Tenno, a group of highly skilled space ninjas armed with everything from swords and guns to magic like powers. The Tenno run an assortment of missions throughout the solar system that range from simple extermination missions to having to capture high value targets. You can play all of the missions alone, with your buddies, or with completely random pickup groups and they can be approached however you want. Whether you want to try and sneak through with stealth weaponry or just start setting the entire place on fire with your flamethrower Warframe has something for everyone’s play style!
Warframe is also big on customization. Both your weapons and your frames can be altered to have different properties by using the mods that you get from running missions. Want your bow to melt targets via corrosive damage? Shoot exploding arrows? Just straight up launch targets across the room and pin them to the first wall they hit? Yup! You can do that! Also, you can customize how your frame works via a wide pallet of colours and attachments so welcome to your new Fashion Frame obsession.

Warframe had plans for cross-platform play between the PS4 and PC but due to Sony being kind of a shitboot about crossplay that's not going to happen. Also, due to the certification process needed for console patches the PC version of the game tends to be ahead in terms of version number.
TLDR: This is the game Destiny wishes it was.

The quick start guide for space ninjas that just want to go slit some throats right fucking now.
A Youtuber named iFlynn put together an excellent beginner's guide series of videos that will take you step by step through the game. All the way from the introduction to being a well geared ass whooper obsessing over how best to make your frame look cool. I highly recommend giving it a watch! If you just want to jump into the action then here's the quick rundown.
1.) Get Warframe installed via the official downloader from the Warframe website, Steam, the PS Store, or via Xbox One.
1a.) For PS4 users: When you download Warframe you also download a patch automatically. After booting the title with the patch, then you download an update in-game (about 250MB) before you start to play.
1b.) PS Plus users can download a free Starter Pack (you can find this separately int PlayStation Store) which includes 100 Platinum, 50,000 credits, a few free Mods (Falcon Mod pack), and 3 day Affinity/Credit booster.
2.) Create an account
3.) After logging in with your minty fresh account you will play through a short tutorial and will need to select a starter frame. They break down as follows:
Excalibur – Excalibur is easily the best pick for new players. He's easy to start with and understand, takes but stays relevant throughout the entire game. Also his #4 power lets you throw energy blades around the level like a cracked out Master Sword wielding full health Link.
Volt - An electricity based frame that can be super fun once you've got some mods slapped in him. His #2 accelerates you to damn near warp drive speeds and he has a good array of powers, but he is a little squishy so he's a little harder to start with. He's easy to acquire as you go through the game but can be fun if you're looking for a more challening start.
Mag - She's alright and has some fun powers, but can be fiddly to play and is easily acquired later on as you go through the solar system making her kind of a bad starter choice. You're better off picking her up after you have some idea of how to mod your frames and have the mods to do it.
4.) For your melee weapon the Skana is recommended as you have to build it if you don't pick it while the MK1-Bo can just be straight up purchased for credits or acquired for free via a quest.
5.) For your secondary pick whatever looks the coolest to you. They're all pretty alright.
6.) Finally, for your primary the Paris and the Braton are both equally solid starters. The Paris has a bit of a charge up time before it can fire due to needing to draw the bow first, but pierces through enemies (and nails them to walls!) while the Braton is your standard assault rifle that gets the job done.
7.) Off you go to Mercury! Start clearing missions and having fun!

The Space Knights of Arcadia – The official Penny Arcade PC clan!
The Space Knights Prime Trading Doc! A great list of who has what in the clan available for trading.
Joining a clan in Warframe grants access to the clan dojo. This is a user built base that functions as a physical hangout complete with dick around rooms like an obstacle course to practice your ninja flips in, a dueling room, and much more pertinent facilities like the research labs. Of everything you can build in the dojo the research labs are the most important. They unlock a huge array of weapons and Sentinels that are unavailable through normal means and require a communal effort via resource donation to acquire the blueprints for new weapons and items.
The Space Knights of Arcadia already have the majority of research complete (mostly because the old regulars for this game are insane) so joining up will grant you instantaneous access to all of these features! Joining is as simple as letting us know what your in-game name is in the thread, what system you’re playing on, and one of the veterans will grant you access.

Queens of Space – The official Penny Arcade PS4 clan!
For an invite to the shiny new PS4 PA clan, PM @furlion with your PSN/Warframe name. QoS has its dojo up and running so get out there and start researching more dakka! Note: Clan invites must be manually accepted/denied (options button on the main screen).

The big list of shit this game doesn’t tell you about.
Ok, it’s not really all that bigHAHA JUST KIDDING. There's a fair amount of information this game doesn't tell you about and trying to explain it all would involve writing an entire wiki but thankfully one of those already exists and is going to be your best friend as you play. http://warframe.wikia.com/wiki/WARFRAME_Wiki I'm going to try and keep this section succinct because there are a lot of systems in this game and you're better off learning them as you go instead of feeling overwhelmed from the start. Be sure to ask any questions you have in this thread or in game.
Damage 2.0: Everything you need to know about how dealing damage works in Warframe. There's a lot of nice to know but not need to know info here so just skim it for the important bits. Namely, what the status procs do, how the status mods interact, and how crits work. Ignore the chart for what element does the most to each enemy type because it's honestly irrelevant, you'll figure out the damage meta later on and it's way more simple than it looks. It's just not anything you need to concern yourself with when starting out.
Parkour 2.0: How to do all the cool flips, dodges, and general flying around you can do in Warframe.
Mods: How mods in Warframe work.
The Plains of Eidolon: Once you start messing around in the Plains of Eidolon, PC Gamer has a pretty decent guide as to wtf is going on there.
Eidolon Hunting Guide: And once you decide to start hunting Eidolons, a Redditor put together a pretty handy guide to help new players figure that out.
Grouping: Grouping itself is pretty straight forward but what's not mentioned about it is that you can invite someone to your session and they will be able to run missions you have unlocked but they don't. After the mission is completed that player will then have that mission unlocked and will then be able to start doing all the surrounding missions.
Archwing: Archwing is a game mode that lets you strap a jetpack to your ass and fly around in space blowing shit up and is accessible later on in the game via a quest.Here's a handy guide Darmak found on Reddit with a shitload of information for those of you that want to know more! TOGSOLID'S SUPER IMPORTANT PROTIP: Go to your options and turn Experimental Flight on. Don't argue. Just do it. It's SO much better and for some reason isn't the default movement option. Without it you're gonna end up bouncing off terrain like a pinball.

Blain put together a list of what major things were added and changed as of 2017, which is awesome and also really helpful if anyone is a returning player and wants to know some of what's changed since they last played.

Links to great Youtube channels and resources
LeyzarGamingViews: An absolute gold mine for build guides geared towards new players. Leyzar breaks down the builds and explains why he picks every single mod and explains things at a beginner's level so you can learn the ins and outs of modding in Warframe.
iFlynn: A dedicated Warframe channel with tons of useful guides, gear/frame reviews, and build videos. One of the best resources around for straight information about the game.
Tactical Potato: Another dedicated, excellent Warframe channel. Guides, build videos, all that fun stuff starring an entertaining Irish bloke. He tends to focus more on day to day updates and discussions on what's going on in the game.
Brozime: A Warframe channel specifically focused on weapon and frame reviews and builds.
StallordD: This channel is dedicated to compiling the lore in Warframe into a single source. This is an absolutely fantastic resource for players both new, who need to catch up on everything, and veteran, who may need a refresher from time to time.
Joey Flynn: Discussions about random Warframe topics. Hosts the Weekly Warframe Show. A well produced Warframe variety show with news, tips, skits, weapon discussions and just all sorts of stuff.
Cephalon Shy: Bite sized, hilarious videos starring a sociopathic robot artist who hates everyone and everything. You won't learn anything here. I just really like this channel.
The Official Warframe Channel: Community interaction is part of what helped make Warframe what it is today. This channel features archives of all their dev streams where they discuss upcoming features, things being looked at, bug fixes, and so on and Prime Time. A show where DE_Rebecca and DE_Megan goof off and give out freebies to the audience.
The Official Warframe Twitch Channel: Where DE hosts their weekly Prime Time shows and Devstreams. Watching them live gives you a chance to win freebies like Plat and items!
My Warframe Music Playlist: I've been slowly putting together a playlist of songs about Warframe on my Youtube channel. If you want some fun stuff to listen to while playing this is for you!

Is there a way to track alerts out of game?
Yes there is! Internet denizen King Taro put together a website based alert tracker: http://www.kingtaro.com/warframe/ This tracker will play a sound whenever a new alert goes up and it has the option to filter cash alerts out entirely. There is also a Twitter account, Android app, and Apple app. Warframe Nexus is pretty damn slick but don't log into it while you're logged into the game because Warframe will think you're logging in from a different device and log you out of the game.

Wait, where’s the technical support section!?
We've never really needed one tbh. It sounds like the PS4 version might have some peculiarities to it but that is way out of the realm of things I know anything about. As mentioned at the start of this I will need help getting something for the PS4 players together if needed. As far as the PC side of things go this game is actually really damn stable thanks to Digital Extreme’s using their own proprietary engine. Any oddities you run into are 99.999999999% of the time due to a bug we can’t do anything about on the client side of things but DE is very fast about fixing those. If you are having technical issues do not hesitate to ask for help in the thread and if they ever do come up I will be sure to start listing them here and create a proper tech help section. Be sure to submit a ticket at https://support.warframe.com if you are having issues.

What is the Design Council?
For a long time Warframe was offering starter packs. The Master and Grand Master packs, however, came with access to what is known as the Design Council. This group of players act essentially as a player based focus group for Digital Extremes to bounce upcoming features off of via the hidden Design Council sub forum. For instance, Valkyr was originally presented to us as the Berserker with a very different power list than what she has now. The original concept art they showed us for her also had her a fair bit lither than what she is now. What originally started out as a request from the devs for a third power idea for her ended up as a 60 page discussion about how all four of her powers weren’t very good and how they could be improved. The result is the Valkyr we have now which is proving to be a ton of fun. Occasionally the devs will also give the Council a chance to design a frame or Sentinel that will then get put into the game (Nova and Carrier both came from these sort of sessions). The Design Council also has a dedicated in game chat room but it’s not all that different from the standard global chat though it does tend to be a fair bit more sane due to the aforementioned requirement of having purchased either the Master or Grandmaster packs so everyone there is usually on the “adults with lives” side of the demographic.

The devs do read the regular forums and interact with the community there (they even hang out in the game’s global chat regularly) so don’t think your opinion doesn’t matter just because you aren’t in the Council! Warframe is a very community oriented game and the level of attention everyone gets from DE is one of the things that makes this game as great as it is.

    Looking forward to maxing my Limbo Prime this weekend. I wonder if getting

    from The Sacrifice will push me over the MR25 bar without quite having to farm the 1,400 mutagen samples required to research the Hema..

  • SteveRageSteveRage Registered User regular
    in response to your spoiler, sadly no.

    also, i'm almost positive the guild (on PC) has the hema BP in the dojo. i don't think you can trade it, but you could join up for it :)

    So I'm happy to do Rad Shares. But when I spend a week farming up Axi L2 for Limbo parts...do NOT start a Rad Share and bail on us because we are not running the mission 'fast enough'. That path my friend is the one that leads down to me gouging your eyes out with my fingers if I ever meet you in person.

    *sigh*

    In other news. Limbo P. is on cook finally.

    FYI for anyone else in the clan (edit: on PC), I'm gonna be doing some pretty hard index/void relic farming for the next week, leading up to the Tennocon relay. If you need some credits or prime trash to trade for ducats, hit me up if you see me on, same as my forum name.

    Also, thanks to whoever suggested last thread I find a Lethal Torrent for my Mesa's regulators, it's awesome.

    I have just had a sudden revelation.
    I am constantly broke.
    Like, i can't make money fast enough to fund my crafting at the speed i'd like to craft.
    Anyone else realise how odd that is in a free to play game?

    I mean, in most fF2P mmo's or multiplayer games, you usually are drowning in ingame money, and none of it is worth anything, or if it is, it's only because of hyperinflated player economy for crafting materials or cosmetic items.
    But here, i have not touched the player economy, i only buy blueprints and pay for crafting, and i am broke, constantly.

    Credits can be a pain to get until you get farther. If you do dark sector missions they will give you a large chunk of credits (I liked Seimeni on Ceres early on). Particularly do one after the daily reset and you will get double the currency. Seimeni will give about 45K if it's your first mission after the reset.

    After you are far enough the index pays very well.

    The warframe economy is pretty well done, so most of the time you're always short on critical resources (Orokin Cells, Neurodes, Credits).
    If you need to raise some quick&easy money, running a 5 wave Dark Sector Defense can net you a fair amount of credits. Used to be even more (the one on Ceres used to give you like 25000 for just 5 rounds), but it's still a fair amount of credits per minute.
    Also, if you need quick cash now. Sort your mods by duplicates and see if there is a pile of crapmods you can sell-off. Even if you do this fairly often you'll frequently get 200k or more per purge.

    I'm not complaining.
    I'm not asking for tips to earn money faster.
    Don't mistake my point.
    I am marvelling that, in a free to play game, the money earned in game has value.
    This is a good thing.
    I'm happy that i am broke in the game.

    I will buy platinum, possibly even soon, not because i need it to get past some huge grind or to acquire resources otherwise available, but to buy more warframe slots (Though i guess those could be considered a resource).

    Being short on credits is another resource DE is happy to allow you to throw platinum at. Not trying to knock DE but they definitely have the economy tuned to the same wait or pay that most F2P games use. They do such a good job that I feel it should be the industry standard rather then just the standout. Like all these other companies should be looking at warframe and going let's copy those people.

    Oh God no, that is the absolute worst way to get credits. A single credit booster run of Index High will get you 400k.

    If you're not up for Index (given how fast enemies get ridiculously resistant there, if your firepower isn't up to snuff getting a taxi there could end up in you feeling useless), farming the first five waves of Seimeni in Ceres with a credit booster is a) super easy at low levels, b) takes like five minutes, and c) gives a good 50K credits. Very good to keep yourself in credits for crafting when you're not too far along in the starmap!

They do such a good job that I feel it should be the industry standard rather then just the standout. Like all these other companies should be looking at warframe and going let's copy those people.

    Oh God no, that is the absolute worst way to get credits. A single credit booster run of Index High will get you 400k.

    I actually meant a credit booster. My point was that the game definitely has the F2P trappings, they just chose to implement them in a much more consumer friendly manner then almost any other company.

    Even Index Low Rank will net you around 100-200 k a run if you have a good crew. You can then turn around and use that to run Index High. Nice way to build up some seed capital. I enjoy doing Dark Sector endless missions for cash too. But I actually use those for resource farming.

    Honestly, the one thing I value the most in runs these days is mods. I've turned into something of a mod hunter. I go on cache hunts just for rarer drops.

    I doubt it matters. That is pretty much the definition of name your price.

    It depends on the weapons though. While the dread has decent status chance, that's not a top tier roll, and 3 +s reduces their strength. There's a +crit +crit damage +electric one on riven.market for only 350, and that is probably more useful than status chance

    Holy smokes, I didn't know this site existed. Thanks for that!

    Downed my first Gantulyst yesterday - I think it was true to form that the second after I landed the killing shot I got absolutely flattened.

    Even so:

    Then, high on our success, we went immediately into the Hydrolyst fight, having done no preparation, reading or advanced planning of any kind.

    This quickly led to a sobering realisation:

    I managed to land all the valk Prime blueprints while opening relics. But man those are some material requirements. Gonna need to do some serious polymer farming here. And five nitains, ugh.

    the secret to nitain is always be getting nitain whenever an alert pops up

  • DrascinDrascin Registered User regular

    Yeah, except I never seem to be ingame when the alerts for nitain happen. I've gotten like two nitains in the past what, five days, six? I'm not going to be camping my phone checking every half hour to see if now there's a nitain alert.

    Is it "this is extremely not worth the effort"? I bet it's that many :P.

    7,000 Oxium. For the chassis.

    20 Nitain.

    Insert existential screaming where appropriate.

    As Lalabox said, the key is to just merrily grab Nitain whenever it pops; irrespective of whether you need it or not - I'm sitting on about 120 or so, but I'm like a programmed rat, which makes me particularly suited to Warframe.
