My Top 5 Beginner Frames Recommendatins: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fLSSm8mS1cycgac.html

Getting back into Warframe recently has reminded me that I don't play Warframe enough to play Warframe.

After 5 years of not playing the game, returning has been quite overwhelming. This is what i needed. Thanks.

This is Exactly what i need!! I have tons of hours in Warframe. But haven't played in about a year. It is extremely overwhelming to figure out "what are we doing now" as a returning player. Maybe a video like this every 6 months or so in a saved playlist would benefit the community! Thank you.

Hey guys, use this until tater can chapter the vid 0:55 Mild Spoilers warning 1:20 Intro 2:49 Steel Path 4:22 Railjack 5:20 Necramech 6:17 Incarnon Genesis 8:34 Archon Shards 11:06 Galvanized Mods 12:30 Summary and Outro

When you want to grind for a prime weapon but then you have to grind for relics then grind for mods then grind for the endo for the mods by grinding arbitrations and by farming the credits for the mods by farming index

Heads up to anyone working on the Necramech: Ignis Wraith and Stropha are good low-Mastery weapons for fighting Necramechs in Isolation Vault bounties, build for Radiation and bring a tank

I think something very useful for new players is getting into non-SP spiral. It allows players to try a ton of frames for free, pick a free one weekly, and even get an augment mod for the frame. I think Spiral is a great way to try all the different weapons and frames in the game so you can try something and see if you actually like it instead of just reading abilities

This is honestly a really useful video because I've been contemplating picking up Warframe again and the last time I played, the most recent story part was the Chimera Prologue so I got a LOT of catching up to do apparently...

Some tips as returning player that i've experienced , Railjack only takes 1 to 3 minutes per part crafted ( u can also use a Relay to interact with the dock , it's not clan exclusive afaik) and after doing the Heart of Deimos quest u get necramech blueprints in your inbox as well so you don't really have to farm the standing unless you want to ignore the vaults requiered for the damaged parts that are needed, however if you plan to craft your nechramechs standing is needed for the resources.

The video isn’t chaptered, reminding you

I don't know if you skipped it but there's also helminth, of course it's completely optional and demanding but it does grant a huge boost to some warframes

For the necramech, you do not need entati standing to get necraloid standing. As well as requiring the war within to access and use necramechs.

small note on khal missions. you can now farm stock by finding it in mission (you have loot radar now) and it refreshes every time you re run it. you can use it to catch up or buy what you want instead of waiting for the weekly khal mission to rotate with new challenges, if your in that of a neewd for an item from that shop. apparently the best mission to rerun that is short is aparently sneaky sabotage. thats what ive heard but not really looked at in depth to know if its true.

things you "need". a reliably-survivable frame: generally i'd say we are talking % based damage reduction with some Hp regen, shield-gating (or invis) plus abilities that provide some damage booting (be it via AoE kill, AoE CC/pull or direct damage boosting like roar). The options are many, for a newb i''d strongly recommend rhino/oberon/citrine(a remarkably easy farm but the vendor is on deimos). octavia/saryn/mesa(PITA farm for a newb, likewise Wisp) are solid options for survivable-enough kill-frames later on once you have a good array of mods. one GOOD gun: that means an incarnon, i'd say ideally one of the 2 OG incarnons phenmor/laetum (plus the good-enough gun to help you gain it, the options are numerous here, 90% of them will be crit-based weapons tho). duviri and lich/sister hunts will round out the weapon options later on. one good amp early on just get the 111 (Raplak Prism, Pencha Scaffold, Clapkra Brace) from the quills, as you faction up with the quills and little duck go for something like a 42 3/4 (Rahn, Shraksun Scaffold, Lohrin/Anspatha Brace) this will be down to your tolerance and group potential for eidolons. until finally getting a 747/777 (everyone fights, no one quits) void-pocket portable WMD. arch-gun, Necramech and railjack for the story-progression (neither are particularly essential for generic gameplay beyond specific boss encounter). I personally enjoy the railjack mode but then i duo a lot and have top of the line crew & gear for the turrets/engineering side so my ships functionally immortal unless boarded (the engineers will ignore the enemies committing sabotage to repair even when getting shot, so a gunner with HP and weapon-damage skills comes in handy) the build completion items mods for the frame: can rarely go wrong with triple umbra mods for face/HP-tank builds, but the rest often want faction related mods to round out the build (e.g. adaptation or the khal mods for prime grade utility), corrupted mods or primes (that means baro RNG). best bet is stick with the basics until you get to farming the khal weekly missions, arbitrations (the big influx of potent mods), Orokin Derelict dragon key vaults and steel-path essences. the mods to support that gun: that means maxed out galvanised multishot, decent crit/element-boosting (critical delay/primed crit and/or primed element mods) that means arbitrations and Orokin Derelict dragon key vaults and baro. the gold element mods are also 3/4 farmable but not as desirable as pervious. leveling up mods means Ayatan relics and/or farming a load of ayatan via missions. arcanes frames, guns and amps all have he final 1/3 to 1/2 of their total potential locked behind arcanes. generally 2 arcanes per frame/amp, 1 per weapon all of them from differnt sources. warframe amps will be mostly from eidolons, duviri or P2W via warframe market (the RNG on arcanes can be horrendous, some of the handy but potent ones don't cost much plat). weapon arcanes are mostly from steel path acolyte spawns. amp arcanes will be from the same people you got the amps from. edit, i forgot about the damned archons (and their SHARDS). the SHARDS, you can get a slow but steady 1 weekly from the khal bounties with no gear wall Archon-KILL missions are beyond steel-path difficulty and you can't self-revive(so rez those friendlies that got an unlucky hit) . bring something that won't die (revenant if you have it, the frames mentioned above if not) if you can apply a roar via the ship helminth subsume all the better) you will need to be carried if disruption is on, the archon kills probably likewise, overview 1-2 yellow shards can turn some of the most sluggisg caster-frames into something enjoyable blue is a fundamental boost to core-survivability/energy, don't underestimate them because of the meta-optimised builds, if you are lacking mods an extra 150 HP/armour/energy goes a long way red shards with the +10 to strength/duration can make or break some intense build-limits (e.g. easily help a nova reach/surpass the full 18 null-star 90%DR cap, turn some frames into roar/support powerhouses) and that's before the RNG chance of gettig the "tauforged" ones which are 50% better than the default shards. overall the path to being carried in warframe missions is simple, plenty of people around so if you can provide buffs most won't mind carrying as long as you stay alive and don't slow the mission down (don't die, don't dawdle and know if there's a mechanic you need to interact with by testing it out solo first (think kayla/saryn farm fight, tridolon amp the shields away & amp the adds away or the archon hat-gates).

As a returning player (3 years out) this was actually really helpful, thank you! Has helped me make a rough plan of what I’m doing rather than just fumbling around aimlessly and being confused all over again 😅

I came back to wf earlier this year and stop again the same day. The content is overwhelming. Thank you for this informative bit of the game! I can start play again later.

Great content. I returned to WF last year after setting down the controller when Hydroid was released. It was quite overwhelming as the open world grinds are quite the 'see you next Tuesday'. I did find that completing arbitration missions to get the galvanized mods helped a lot with the early SP content and helped to farm for those first couple incarnon adaptors. Thanks for all the helpful tips. Keep doing what you're doimg boss!

Just came back about two weeks ago, I can't tell you how much I appreciate this!!

Love it. Thank you so much. Just came back after over a year and I was so confused why my frames felt so weak compared to when I left.

One thing that is of particular import is that the vitality, redirection, and steel fiber mods have had their math and language changed to be more readable. Before Vit and Red read out +440% H/S, but now read +100% H/S. The math changed to increase based on the Warframe's CURRENT health pool as opposed to using the BASE health pool before.

I absolutely love the intro with the spongebob clip. Thanks, Tater. Awesome content as always, and thanks for the heads up about the content in Whispers in the Walls.

Awesome video, thanks! I think Railjack was the last bit thing (I got mine) that was out when I was playing on Xbox. I'm looking forward to all the content waiting for me.

For Railjack, if you dont want to join a clan or build a dock in dojo, it can be done in some of the relays, like the one on pluto or europa

Thank you for sharing this, I have been back into Warframe recently and been grinding the star chart. When I was here last it was a grind because the missions were level locked. You have to love this game for its survival through the yeas.

Dude, Nicely put together. I will be following your gidue. Thanks!

I havent played since 2016 so it's been a bit of a journey trying to get back into the grove of things, so thanks for breaking down what I should be focusing on.

Great guide i havent played since excalibur umbra got released, now back to give it another try as wf has always had a special place. Boy so much has changed and i feel completely lost, happy utube popped this video into my playlist

Who else is watching but doesn't need to

Thank you for this, just the video I was looking for. Really appreciated.

I'm back from about 3 to 4 years off. Very helpful. Thank you. Imagine being a new player. The content is off the charts.

Awesome! Newer player here and wasn’t really sure what I needed to be doing other than working through the star chart. I kept hearing about all this other stuff from other content creators but didn’t understand it. Seems like I just have to keep doing what I’m doing till I get there 👍

As a returning player this is by far the most helpful video I’ve found. Properly laid out the order of things to do and what to prioritize very well! Thank you!

Solid guide as a new/ returning player I’ve played warframe on a diff account which I don’t have access to anymore unfortunately this guide has been very helpful

Wow i cant believe you still make content for this game. You helped me alot years ago. Kind of heart warming to see you're still around making great stuff.

Thanks for this! I have all of these systems unlocked, but between work and some health issues, I haven't been playing much lately beyond completing the major quests. I knew it was time to grind, but I was starting to get overwhelmed trying to figure out what to focus on. This is SUPER helpful. For example, I didn't realize Incarnon weapons are better than Kuva and Tenet ones! Looking forward to spending more time with that system.

I haven't played in 2 years and forgot half the stuff I did. This is a good refresher for me and reminder for me to focus more on the endgame. Thanks

Last thing I played was Orphix Venom, this helped me so much. Thank you so much tater

I needed this video, i have that grind itch again for warframe. Great video and new sub 😤

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! My son got me to return after a few years hiatus, and this is exactly the content I'm looking for. I'm very happy you're still making videos, as well. Thanks again!!!

Awesome video I haven't played in about a year or so. This definitely helps thank you tactical potato 😁😁

Always relevant bro. Another awesome video.

Ay Tact, accurate video huh! I just came back a few days ago and found your gliph there! So now I'm watching you again xD

Thanks for this,Potato. Seeing the Zarimon on the starchart confused TF out of me when I first logged back in, so this is really helpful.

omg i really love you 🥺🥺🥺🥺 I was struggling, feeling really lost in the game but thanks to you now I found a path lol but fr Ily 🥰

this helps me out so much right now! i dropped warframe 3 years ago and just met someone i could play this with, and ofc i have no clue of the current most efficient tactics

Good video, I think what returning players need above all is a direction to go and have a plan to work towards, this video helps a lot.

Liked and subscribed. Very well done and helpful. I'm a returning player who was lost lol. Thanks for the video! 😁👍

Thank you so much. I haven't played since 2018 recaps and a simple what to do is all I wanted

I’d say for any new players looking to higher their numbers/survivability on their favorite frames should look out for Umbral Forma alerts after completing the Sacrifice quest. Umbral mods’ stats increase based on how many in the set you have slotted, but they’re pretty expensive and have a unique polarity.

I'd argue the companion mods should be a higher priority for new players and returning tenno who haven't done steel path bc it makes a huge difference in your ability to do that high end content

Just returned to Warframe around 2 weeks ago and I'm already learning new features that I didn't knew or just wasn't there when I last played. This video shows there's more to do and learn.

One big thing to focus on is...Focus! If you've been gone long enough, none of your points will be allocated since they were reset in the rework.

THANK YOU! I returned earlier this summer and i had NO IDEA where to start. I got confused and was nearly quitting again.

Thanks for this. Started playing Warframe again for the first time since 2021 and I was very much in the "Dafuq how much have I missed???" mode.

coming back after 7 years ive given up on the new stuff and just went back to farming prime parts. This has helped a lot with the new systems

I haven’t played in about 5 years, and I searched up a vid for returning players and seeing your name and hearing your voice hit me with a wave of nostalgia, what a period of time in my life I’ve missed

THANK YOU, finally someone explaining things clearly and straigth to the point, as a returning player i was tiring of video where people just say "do this do that" but without explaining how or what you need for

This is a great video. Thanks potato

Came back after a few more years and there is a lot going on, glad some old prime stuff got those upgrades so I can use em for the new end game stuff. I’m definitely gonna be on that.

I hopped on about 2 weeks ago after 5 years of not playing...... holy crap is there a lot. Perfectly timed video!

Very useful information for a returning player such as myself, thank you. I'm still trying to learn railjack as a returning player but I simply used platinum to get my Necromech. Deimos and anything Invested-related are the things I like the least about Warframe. However, if you ever do a railjack video for returning players, I'd be very interested.

Talk about a blast from the past lmao. I was like 15 when I last watched a Potato video and here I am 23 learning from him again. Thank you for the content man!

Dag yo there’s a lot. Thank for putting this together for us

Thanks for this. I haven't played since 2017 so this will definitely help!:) THx man! :)

I got recommended this video and I absolutely appreciate this as someone who is gonna be returning after a long time. I dusted off the old xbox to get a feel for the game again before I merge to pc and I was completely lost with how much new stuff there was

this is really good timing, actually

THANK YOU, so much sir.... I think I've missed watching ur videos in the background while playing, more than anything else... lmao...

This'll be REALLY helpful. I am a returning player along with a friend, and we are playing together cuz company makes it more fun than playing solo or just with randoms, and we KNOW warframe has a lot of stuff. Fresh accounts, news beginning, lets start with the right foot. Thank you for the video

Thanks potato I was lost I haven't played since wisp came out so excited to get back in

This is the exact video i needed, i havent played since Night wave release.

Warframe has so many content it's so hard to come back, thanks for the guide

this video genuinely makes getting back into the game so so so much less daunting, im so glad i found it :) tysm

Wonderful video, but I would add one thing - You do NOT need to DO Steel Path for Galvanized Mods. Once your starchart is completed, you get access to Arbitrations, which gives the Vitus Essence needed to trade for the mods. Sincerely, a Tenno who has all of them without once touching Steel Path. Edit after completing video: I think you're putting way too much emphasis on completing Steel Path. All of the systems you mention are NOT locked behind Steel Path. Sure, the primary and secondary arcanes are as well as Incarnon Genesis, but everything else is available without needing to clear a single node on Steel Path.

Literally created a PC account last night to link my PS account so I could play again, this video is exactly what I needed. Luckily I had already completed steal path before i stopped playing previously and had my railjcak and Neuromech completed, so I am not too far behind.

I'd say players should rank up their Fortuna standing to rank 5, so they can access Solaris United.. so they can actually build a decent AMP

Thanks for this! I just had x-save enabled on my account and logged in and was instantly drowning in overload.😅

Thx dude!!

This is insane, I shudder at the amount of grind. I'm looking at a whole summer of grind just to catch up

As a new player, this is very useful thank you!!!

You make it sound so easy! I'm only at mastery rank 4 and haven't played for a few years. Logged in last night and had NFI what to do so I logged straight out. So basically I think I need to grind the rest of the whole starter system first. Stopped playing a while back bc of a timed mission I just couldn't do. Might have to look for help to carry me through this. Thanks for a great vid, spud. :)

As of current, on my MR0 account want to note you can only access Earth and Venus in Railjack as it won't let you do the Volatile nodes to progress beyond. And with Necramechs they can't be used unless you have unlocked the Operator through the story even if you own a Necramech in your arsenal through market purchase. Syam is a great weapon that isn't locked behind MR lock that can easily be farmed in Duviri. Best primary to get is Opticor Vandal which can be earned doing Thermal event in Orb Vallis ignoring the MR requirement behind it. Secondary would have to be a kitgun however they will still be locked behind daily standing limits and are tedious. However with the changes I'd only recommend the Syam as with the removal of MR from the main story you'll get other free weapons including the Natarak bow, the new secondary book weapon, and multiple other melees to hold you over until you can get the really good stuff. This is all from a MR0 pov so would only effect a day 1 new player as once they can get MR up they can also access other quests that aren't dropping MR requirements to gain access to Liches and Sisters.

bit late on this, but when you do the heart of deimos quest, you get all the blueprints right away. you still need the damaged parts and other resources, but you dont technically need to level loid at all if you get lucky with damage part drops

The intro was THE best 😀

After a long time away, it's good to be back... and now playing on MnK rather than controller, I have so much to learn now.

While I have plenty of time in Warframe I have never understood what I'm supposed to do, this helps me somewhat gather what I am supposed to do, although I think I still need many more explanations on what I should be doing. Though I did earlier today make sure that my warframes were with a steel path sigil, so there is that though that was just because I realised that my standings were not increasing.

This is exactly what I needed

Never comment on KZfaq generally, but this was fantastic and extremely helpful for anyone looking to get back into the swing of things.

Finally. Something that adequately explains what the hell i missed. Much appreciated, mate.

I remember quitting at the necramech part, give or take 4 years ago. I think you were forced to build/grind one? Guess I'm just buying one now. Thanks a lot for this! It's good to see so much new updates.

Last time I played was 8-9 years ago. Ivara was the new frame. Just starting again cus of cross save, this vid is a massive help.

I've not plated in 2 years, I'm so hype to play again.

Just something I noticed after watching this video and changing my focus, to unlock the Path of Steel, you need to complete mission nodes from the Zariman and whatever unlocks after the Whispers in the Wall quest, so you do need to do a fair bit or quests to be able to unlock the path!

I’ve returned to warframe a month ago and man I’ll tell ya the grind is unreal. I left before the plains update

Haven’t watched yet, but thank you for this! I hope to return and reignite my love for the game when i can finally bring my playstation save to my PC. Had well over 1300 hours and haven’t played religiously since before plains of eidolon.

THANK YOU!!

Thanks for the video. I quit the game when they added steel path - being considering returning for a while now . Having a list of priorities should be pretty helpful.

Not a returning player but theres just been so many systems introduced that i kinda just gave up. So I really appreciate this video.

Brilliant intro

Just got back into thr game.. man I miss listening to you.. love thr content
