Uninfluenced honest opinions about the gaming industry and its current state. Currently we focus on Warframe & other formats like: News, Updates & Game Reviews
It looks like the new intermission brings back some old rewards such as The Spore Epmhemera, Protosomid Shoulder Guard and the Emissary Operator Collection. The Intermission is toped-off with two Umbra Forma at level Twenty Nine and thirty.
Last bit of info worth mentioning is the fact that from now on will get fifty creds for any cosmetic duplicate.
There are a lot of awesome weapons in Warframe which have been forgotten for one reason or another. Today, I want to shed a little light on an old favorite of mine, The Attica
The weapon features an automatic trigger and fires bolts with a quick travel time and excellent critical stats. While the status chance may not be the best, the base damage is very high at eight with the very large majority of it being puncture.
From this point onward a standard Viral setup with Hunter Munitions will offer good results and I'd recommend exploring Vile Acceleration, Argon Scope and Primed Shred as your option slot. Since we're discussion options I would also unlock the weapon Exilus slot and use some Projective Flight Speed With Terminal Velocity.
Riven Disposition is a huge plus for the Attica. Sitting at five out of five due to the weapons low popularity. This means we can leverage cheap prices for Rivens and as always Multishot is kind when it comes to stat priority. This can results in easily dispatching high level targets.
Today we visit yet another iconic weapon of Warframe, none other that Clem's weapon of choice! The Twin Grakatas
The Twin Grakatas are the very definition of Warframe bullet hose. A huge one hundred and twenty magazine coupled with a super quick fire rate but very little individual damage make the Garakatas a spray and pray affair. It can handle a slash build through the use of the new Deimos mod Carnis Stinger but I would suggest using the Corrosive sixty sixty mods in combination with Scorch as an option slot. Another good idea would be to improve that long reload of three second with Stunning Speed which will bring the reload down to a more manageable two point one seconds.
The main usability issue of the Twin Grakatas remain the huge ammunition consumption but that can be alleviated somewhat through the use of Pistol Ammo Mutation in the Exilus slot or through the us of Ammo Case and some Pads when needed.
The Exilus slot can also house Steady Hands which will have a noticeable impact on the accuracy of the weapon.
If we are to truly make this hose into a monster than we got to leverage the high riven disposition of the Twin Grakatas. Sitting at a remarkable four out of five the right Riven can make a huge difference in the performance of the weapon. I'd advise prioritizing Multishot, Damage and either Critical Chance or Critical Damage. For a negative either something harmless or if you're lucky enough minus impact. Keep in mind that unrolled Twin Grakata Rivens but a good roll can set you back a few thousand plat.
Every year tons of weapons get released in Warframe which is awesome. But a side effect of this is that some old cool weapons get forgotten or left behind. This is the story of one such weapon, namely The Lex Prime.
The weapon performs very similar to a Desert Eagle in Counter Strike. It fires high caliber shots that deal a lot of damage but has the recoil to much and the fire rate is slow, reload long and the magazine hold only eight bullets.
The Subjective Experience of playing with the weapon is awesome however. It really does feel very impactful and satisfying when you get the right shot!
Riven Mod disposition is also a plus for the Lex Prime sitting at a cool four out of five. Rivens are worth getting for this weapon and unrolled ones are not that expensive. Look for Multishot, Damage and Some Crit. A harmless negative would also be awesome to have.
Back when I was a low Mastery Rank Tenno I use to dream of the day I would finally get to wiled the Mighty Akstiletto Prime. The weapon did not disappoint and for a good amount of time it dominated the secondary weapon landscape. But no king rules forever and today we'll see how the Akstiletto Prime fairs in 2021.
The weapon has great usability being automatic-hitscan with very little recoil, good magazine size and super quick reload.
The Akstiletto Prime also feature very good base damage and a solid status chance but suffers when it comes to critical stats and the IPS layout favors impact heavily.
This leads us to two main standard builds. Either a slash focused build through the use of Carnis Stinger and Viral or we can go corrosive and heat. Both builds will offer good results and which you chose will depend on situation. I would not take Viral and Slash to the Heart of Deimos since most enemies there are immune to viral damage.
While usability is great on the weapon Riven Mod disposition is not sitting at one out of five which means that obtaining Riven mod which is worth using on this secondary weapon ca be very difficult or expensive. For the time being I'd advise you forget about Riven mods for the Akstiletto Prime. When and If the disposition goes up we can re-visit the topic.
