[QUOTE=Askaris;41848908]Come to think of it, who is Akhlys? Does he even post in here?[/QUOTE]
Speaking of which, who was AlexaWave anyway? I heard someone claim he posted here not too many days ago.
Also, fuck plastids. I'm getting tired of farming hyperion over and over just to come out with small fractions of the stuff. Now that I'm also out of salvage and control modules, I have to keep farming that too to get those clan resources building. I'll also never get nova built because I don't have time for the 600 plastid cost for the systems when I usually get just 40 plastids of crawling my way through grineer for around half an hour. If DE does this with the necro frame (which I there are high chances that they may actually do), I'll most likely have to do around 12 runs (lasting a total of 6 hours in total) to be able to craft it.
If you're looking for plastids just do Uranus or Saturn and kill a lot of enemies. Enemy drops are actually a lot better and worth killing if you're looking for crafting mats

I've actually kinda given up on this game for now because of the boring and unrewarding RNG-based grinding.
It's difficult to make a crafting system that balances making players want to purchase the occasional item to save time while still letting players earn things with work, though I'm certain DE will find a way. But since they've started making things take even more dice rolls to get (random chance to get a random part of a four-part blueprint, neurodes for everything), and with nothing you do as a player affecting what you receive, it just feels more like work than fun.
It's irritating, because the gameplay itself is amazing. It's just that progressing, the core of a game like this, is so poorly handled, and it taints the fun and satisfying gameplay by turning it into a chore.

That's what I'm doing already, yet the drops still are quite dry. Also, it looks like Saturn drops it more than Uranus, where I only get polymer bundles from enemies.

He's not on FP, he's rich ass friend of mine with the 250 US dorrars pack. Kinda active.

I can tell. Everything he can't get instantly using money, he complains about being grindy and near impossible to get.
Speaking of grind, had a terrifying moment today. I did some defense on phobos (great place to get plastids if you have a competent team) and later joined in on Askaris who were fighting Vor and Kril. Vor dropped easily, but didn't drop anything but a mod, Kril however gave me the final part I needed for miter; the blade. A rush to extraction later (and a revive spent because vauban is apparently really squishy), the extraction cutscene played as usual, but the game didn't load. Instead, I was facing a completely black screen and could only see chat and some other UI elements, as if a cutscene bug happened. Luckily, I kept the blade after restarting the game, so I now have miter building. Woohoo!

He was too lazy to figure out mods. And was complaining a lot Jesus.
I am uncool and got even uncooler friends
Should I consider an internet forum moderator position?

The thing that actually pissed me off was how he specifically said that he coasted through most of the game through other people carrying him, and was proud to admit that.

Takes 24 hours to figure that out.
Every time.

This post can also sum up Payday 2 extremely well.

my guess is that the tenno has to let the blue nail polish dry.
[QUOTE=Super Muffin;41854099]This post can also sum up Payday 2 extremely well.[/QUOTE]
Payday 2 isn't 100% based on RNG though. You do missions, level up, gain access to new missions, armor, weapons, skills, etc. And you don't find weapons, only weapon mods, so it's not like you can't ever get access to a weapon. And if you're having really that bad of luck with the card drops, just play Four Stores and make sure someone has the saw weapon and you're good. :v:

Those hostage suits are some kinky leather fashion.
my prime interest in the hostage is the unique gun it has.

That's a placeholder from Dark Sector iirc.
Even cryopods and generators have that gun.
I'm running out of plastids for my fieldron someone help!

see that gun looks really out of place just because it could actually function as a weapon
i just had a really akward interaction with DE support.
rewind to around 4 days ago before the vauban chassis alert.
i send a support ticket hoping to get my old vauban reimbursed then the alert happens.
i send a second message saying i dont need it reimbursed.
2 days before my new vauban finishes i get a reply offering to reimburse anyways and i say yes hoping to use him again before my new one finishes building and already be at level 30.
flash forward to right now, my new vauban is already level 21 and i have put a potato in him.
i get ready to claim the last 3 of 4 warframes but notice i am a slot short.
i got reimbursed my old vauban at rank 30 and sell it again with a lingering sense of awkwardness that i just wasted some poor customer service persons time.
:downs:

Hyperion, Saturn gives you 30-180 plastids in one run if you are patient.
Opik, Phobos can give you about 200 plastids if you go to wave 25 and pick up everything. A team of frost, nova and vauban is recommended.

Tenno research note #4613:
[I]"I have now tried finding out how these rare orokin cells I some times find are turned into powerful catalysts to put into my weapon. I have tried several experiments:
Attempt 1: Throw a control module at it.
Result: The control module broke.
Attempt 2: Throw gallium at it.
Result: The gallium bounced off it, can't find it again.
Attempt 3: Hit it with morphics.
Result: I tried coating it with morphics, it is now blue.
After 24 hours of thinking, I tried turning it around and there it is! An orokin catalyst!"[/I]

This cost me 21k and a rare mod
it was only shotgun puncture
but still

I once traded in 4 rare mods (ultis) and the game spat a dethcube mod at me.
I fused all my rare mods from that point on.
[QUOTE=TehAgentGuy;41859931]Good news, Stalker got me.[/QUOTE]
Stalker is apparently out for plastids too. I once spent pretty much an entire day farming that mission and was attacked by 5 stalkers during that single day. I even did the mission early the next morning and another stalker came.
Took three runs to get the Miter building.
And I got around 300 plastids doing so
this game is pretty cool:rock:
Also got the Twin Gremlins bp
