Duplex bond sounds good. But companions don't really ever kill anything, so you'll never really get the energy. But I guess you can have a massive herd of clones with certain frames.
My question is if the clones are full clones and have individual cooldowns for abilities, or if they're just additional pewpew.
If the former yeah no shit Charm is gonna get nerfed lol.
Yeah we could be in for a weird situation where people are going to have either 1000% more crit and/or increasing drop amounts on items by absurd amounts as well. If they inherit those things anyway.
Also doesn't one of the robots just actively drop energy anyway? That could be a fun feedback loop as well.
... how do the three... modes? work? If you're doing Story Mode are you just... doing the quest again with all the cutscenes? Really not sure if I understand it. Duviri is *pretty* though.
I'm torn between being honestly compelled by the story and completely burned out on the grindiness inherent in Warframe.

The Duviri experience is a set of 6 of the little duviri mini tasks, but also the map is loaded up with various optional tasks so you can just pile on 235235 decrees and be a god.
Solo Story is just a set of 6 duviri tasks, no optional content. It's what you want if you are after a lot of pathos clamps for crafting/unlocks
Circuit is endlessly chaining Undercroft missions, that fills a bar to give you rewards based on which circuit path you choose. It has a Steel Path reward track as well, which has some tasty gubbins.
It was that somehow, from within the derelict-horror, they had learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing... And take away its pain.

It is very burn out inducing at least for me because you get nothing of value in the real world from doing any of it. No relic cracking no exp in any weapon or frame. I guess you get a lot of focus but meh.

Eh?
Circuit drops base frames, some of which are a total pain to get any other way. And SP Circuit drops Incarnon stuff.
Duviri drops Pathos Clamps, which you need to buy Incarnon adapters. And various melee sets. And the Duviri shop takes clamps for Reactors/adapters etc., which is super useful.
And Duviri intrinsics affect "base" Warframe at level 9 or so, including some very useful Necramech upgrades...
And then there's Kullervo dropping every so often.
It's not exactly a rewardless space even if you only want stuff that ports to the base game.
It does boil down to material grind with no XP for your frames and guns. You do get kullervo, incarnon stuff and the insane melee weapons (syam, sampotes and azothane are some of the hardest hitters and sun&moon is a meat grinder)

You can get XP for frames and guns, but only if the ones that need XP show up in rotation

You get incarnon adapters from SP circuit. I wouldn't call the best guns in the game 'nothing of value'.
See but there are enough powerful guns in the game where you only really need incarnon adapters for making it more likely that you can get a good gun in circuit. And incarnon adapters usually require several forma inserted into the gun which is also not paying out xp.
Circuit drops base frames, some of which are a total pain to get any other way. And SP Circuit drops Incarnon stuff.
Base frames are a good point. I never would have gotten base khora if not for circuit. I would regard it a lot better if the circuit gave the tororids you actually need to build hildryn instead of just the parts you get while you get the toroids.
I don't know. I was doing the SP circuit to 10 each week and it kind of killed the enjoyment of warframe to me. YMMV.
yeah circuit and duviri in general are not rewarding enough for content silos outside of themselves for how much fucking time it takes
game is already on thin ice in normal content that DOES give mastery exp and generally useful resources and faction rep for me

yeah the SPC grind deffo burned me out, we'll see if the new update has enough shinies for me to try.

I did a lot of duviri, and while I didn't get burned out exactly, I for sure got burned IN to baldur's gate 3. It's given me time to yearn for a little warframe again, though I still have quite a bit of gating to do first.
Take with a grain of salt but a content creator says that [DE]Zach posted in the private creator's section of the warframe discord that the way that the shield gate will work will be based on the max shields you were able to recover since the last break.
ie. if you have max 1k shields, and you have 1k shields, but you take five hits of 200 damage, you will get the gate for 1k shields.
if you have max 1k shields, and you recover 500, and take three hits of 200 damage, you get the gate for 500 shields.
I did not expect that. I thought they would be mutually exclusive. My brain is melting with the possibilities of these new mods now.
Seriously. So many different synergies to play with, I can't even process. Plus with the changes to the health/shield mods, I can run whatever pet on whatever frame.
if you mean the new companion mods, son sells them on deimos I believe. There's a new corrupted mod that drops from random dragon key doors in corrupted orokin missions, but there's also an alert up to get that one in particular, 6 more days or somesuch.
how does the abyssal zone mission work? I tried public queuing for it but got sent in solo. And thus was only able to extract with one of the macguffins. Do you have to use a premade party to do it multiplayer and get more of the rewards?

Is there a shield-link mod like there is for health and armor? Maybe that is the more obvious way

OK, but does Duplex Bond --also-- work on Venari.
Well according to the post
So yeah Volt's Discharge should add shields.

There's also a moa attack mod that gives them max overshield every time they use it, which is frequently, so uptime would be very good.
