Every point of armor is just as effective. It's most easily seen in this graph.
Although to some extent it's less effective for each point. The first 300 doubles your health. The second 300 only increases it by 33%, then 25%, 20% and so on.
thinking about that last part in absolute health multipliers is misleading, think about it in terms of time to kill. Every 300 points of armor add another 1x multiplier to how long it takes to chew through your health. If an enemy with a continuous damage attack takes 1 second to remove all your health at 0 armor, it takes 2 seconds at 300 armor, 3 seconds at 600, 4 seconds at 900, 5 seconds at 1200, etc.
You have to think about the cost to other capabilities. If you had to balance for example Firepower and Health.
You have a mod that adds 100% to stuff. Adding the first 100% armor will double your time to deliver firepower. That means 1x2. Adding another 100% would be 1x3, but if you add 100% firepower it would be 2x2 which is more effective.

Did they say when those events were happening/which weekend? It would be so great if one of them was this weekend due to it being a long weekend.
Weekend War 1: War on Lancers (February 15, 2 p.m ET - February 18, 2 p.m. ET)
Reward: Ten Meso S9 Relics
Bonus Weekend: Double Affinity Weekend (March 9-10)
Weekend War 2: War on Crewmen (February 22, 2 p.m. ET - February 25, 2 p.m. ET)
Reward: Ten Axi N6 Relics
Bonus Weekend: Double Credits Weekend (March 16-17)
Weekend War 3: War on Chargers (March 1, 2 p.m. ET - March 4, 2 p.m. ET)
Reward: Ten Neo S10 Relics
Bonus Weekend: Double Resources Weekend (March 23-24)
Meso reward is this weekend. Bonuses aren't until March though.
Im much more interested in saryn parts than boosters, save the one that doubles resource drops. And while i need to i wont be looking forward to running tethys for hours trying to stock up on orokin cells.

So ... Switch clan/players ... is there anywhere we can message each other, other than here (don't want to waste space having discussions here), or clan chat (which I have only seen a conversation like ... once). Since the game doesn't seem to have anywhere normal clan members can leave messages to other clan members. I would rather not use this forum as a means of contacting other Switch clan members ... or even other PA Switch players in general. I know the Warframe community is great but I think PA players are a cut above the rest.
You would think that a bulletin board 'inside' the dojo would be a good idea. I could post a request for help or just a message to my clan mates, arrange meeting/play times, etc. Or maybe I'm just being obtuse and there is a way buried deep ... DEEP in the game and the game just doesn't want me to know. I guess since DE doesn't have dedicated servers that it would be ... difficult ... but they are keeping track of all the research, clan resources, and dojo state somewhere right ... Right?
The ability to leave survivals at will can't come soon enough. Was trapped until the 50 minute mark on Titan because when I was going "Ok. 20 minutes and we got 5 orokin cells. Lets get out of here" they were all "noo. Longer".

It sounds like a discord would be perfect for th hat.
The problem with setting up a discord channel for the clan would be that I'd feel slightly guilty about never bothering to join it. The setup that we have now works perfectly fine for my needs, which mostly involve purchasing blueprints.

There's already a Warframe Discord for PA.
Edit: specifically, there's a Warframe channel on the PA Discord.
We can always set up a Warframe announcement channel on the main PA Discord for all our stuff so that things don't get lost in the general channel.
I don't want to set up another discord for a PA game tbh. There's no real reason to keep fracturing the PA stuff. We'd have a stronger Discord community presence if all the various PA Discords merged into the main one.

Hrm. So you can't polarize things to have Umbral polarity yet. With that in mind, what polarizations do you suggest for Paracesis? I'd still LIKE to use the Umbral mods on it just to make it into an ultimate Sentient murder machine, but I might not be able to if I'm ever able to max those mods :\a

Edit: oh right. It gainst stuff from being polarized 5 times doesn't it...

Mind you. This build would work on a Gram Prime as well. You'd need to forma it 3 times, but it would have even more crit and even more damage. But less anti-sentient stuff.

Staying forever on Survival is so boring. I should get to doing that Lotus alert but it's half a bloody hour...
Blood rush practicly requires that you also equip Drifting Contact/Gladiator Rush. So IMHO you either use the Sacrificial pressure/steel combo OR BR/Combo. Not both.
It's also a matter of style. Are you going to use your melee weapon a lot? Or just occasionally. For occasional use this is a better build, but for dedicated melee nothing matches bloodrush.

Well, there's also condition overdrive or whatever it's called, but noone has that.
I hate how people keep repeatedly using unrefined Meso S9s. It feels like they're stealing from me.
I got a pouch on my first radiant and got the neuroptics on another relic i was doing to go from 29-30 on a weapon. My other 9 are just kinda whatever at this point. Now the next 2 weekends will be more important because i still need saryn prime
Well, I've used all 10 of my radiant S9s, and only got one pouch out of it. I guess I'm at the mercy of everyone else and their ignorantly unrefined relics now.

haha... I didn't know that mission was 30 minutes starting at level 30 and I took my recently forma'd Isaac in there with MR fodder weapons I was working on and it was amusing. they couldn't really kill me, and I couldn't really kill them... heh.
hes level 16 now though.

PSA: The PA Discord (linked in the OP!) now has an announcement channel. Feel free to post any clan/alliance business or Warframe news y'all have in it!

The more forma you put in (up to 5, I believe), the higher it's total level and capacity goes, above and beyond any other weapon in the game.

Fo reals. Take off Fury and slot in BR on that.

Well figure theres the survival mission everyone is doing to get the relics, and the most popular map in the game is hydron. They stood no chance.
