As a middle-aged-filthy-casual-free-to-play gamer myself, I say: "Don't spread the butter too thin." If you want that ultimate descendant, set aside all in-game tasks and focus ONLY on that for a few hours. Trust me, the resultS will come. It's crazy how a small change in my mindset favored me. As soon as I got my Ult Lepic, I started bullying Devour to get a crazy amount of transcendant mods and guess what...it became my primary source of energy activators, because it is the only boss I can solo with my semi-budget Ult Lepic. Get yourself a cup of coffee, sit down, get your Bunny, and hop from outpost to outpost until you find a nice Sharen. That's how I got my Ult Bunny. It took me 5 days to fully max out my Ults, and believe me, I had a shitload of fun doing it. Don't push yourselves too hard, descendants. Stay strong my F2P peeps!
Good advice, I'm 54 and a casual gamer to. And i think i was feeling to impatient in the game, when really i should of just enjoyed the game and what comes comes. I like your thought process because maybe i need to change mine in this game and not be so impatient and just enjoy it without stressing about it.
@@digitaldogs233 Don't think about how many descendants and weapons you don't have, you only need to think about the next one, load in and go after it.
For levelling up Ultimate yes. For farming their part try not to focus on one amorphous. The system knew when you try to farm one part. I manage to get Ult Ajax and Ult Gley (both 6%) part from killing Devourer by criss cross the amorphous dechiper. So kill devourer, dechiper Ult Ajax amorphous, kill devourer, dechiper Ult Gley amorphous. Do this 12 times (6 amorphous each) rather than continously focus on one amorphous. I manage to get their part around the 8 - 10 runs
Exactly. Well said. This entire video is based on the false premise that your'e in some kind of race against time and that everything has to be done in 40 minutes or less. Concepts like needing to be able to get to max level in 24 minutes or complaints that 5 hours grinding is too much baffle me. People have no patience. I used to play MMOs where getting max level took 6 months. Everyone seems to have the attention span of a goldfish these days. Then when these no patience people complete everything the game has to offer in a few days after following one of these how to get everything in 40 minutes guides they complain that theres nothing to do ... lol
@@cezarpena2024 my complaint with the game isn't the characters to me they will come as they come it's finally getting the unique weapon crafted only yo have to get the blueprints 4 more times after that yo have a fully upgrade weapon the upgrade system needs to change from that cause that's what is killing the game for me takes forever to get certain weapon blueprints you need then once you got it you have to get 4 more of each after that.
Totally. Honestly, my savior is that there are only a few guns worth leveling. Based on pref, but I ignore the rest. I only leveled: Enduring legacy, ThunderCage, PiercingLight, AfterGlow so far. I use Bluebeatle and SecretGarden only for passive buffs.
A good tip for Low Carbon Activators. There’s a void fusion reactor in Kingston which spawns 2 elites per run. Doesnt cost you a thing because you only spend materials when you open the orb. It’s way faster than the outpost
I actually enjoy the game but I can see where you coming from . Sad part is that players want everything NOW , they don't get that CC's pay for most of the stuff , which cuts the grind in half . Idc if I unlock a descendant in one day or one week or even one month . I unlocked Hailey within a week by farming 4 copies of the Enduring Legacy . Play the game and everything falls in place . Imagine players need to start from scratch every time they die like it was way back in the game 🤣🤣🤣, the suicide rate would go through the roof .
Well, the modules you upgrade once. Your descendants share them. Now, don't forget maxing out legendary weapons and the tons of weapons you'll need to dismantle to get the 4 golden attributes you want. 😅
Boosters shouldn't be consumed when you're not playing. It's such a greedy tactic to keep players playing even when they don't want to, all to "get their money's worth". Then you have to buy new boosters when they expire regardless if you're playing or not. The only other option is to put up with the awful grind.
This is pretty great. I've never had an issue leveling descendants, specially with the xp bonuses these days. you can cache the xp bonus rewards when you actually need them and let it be in the inbox till then. Also I hope people will try to play the long game, just chill out and focus on 1-2 or 1-3 things at most. No need to burn out trying to hoard everything the game has to offer. I still unlocked only 3 ultimate descendants, and only maxed out two of them, have much more to look forward to
It's not the problem with characters, leveling weapons is the problem. You level up character fast, but weapon is almost half slower. Only fast spot to level up weapon is the bunny cave, but not getting anything from that except xp and same mods over and over and weapons to disassemble. If you use non electric character, you don't even get void shards
there are 3 other good spots you can level weapons at: Special Operation: Block Kuiper Mining - Sterile Land (any character but bunny works best, split up to go faster) Void Fragment, Non-attribute: Vespers - Moonlight Lake (kill the first wave, then abandon. Lots of characters work here) Void Fragment, Chill: Fortress - Defence Line (kill the first wave, then abandon, Viessa is the only one that works well here) The key with levelling weapons is mob density since you get EXP per kill from anyone on your team (skill or otherwise) for weapons
Well, its the repetition we're talking about. If you only needed to level to 40 once, ok. But 12 times on 16 characters...it does matter to some of us.
@@TuxedoBandido No we get that, it's just weapons are more of a grind imo, characters are relatively quicker to level up. Think that's all he's saying.
it's the repetition that weighs on us. 12 times per descendant, 16 descendants. Weapons suck too, but honestly, how many weapons are you going to max-cata on? You don't have to level every weapon. Blue Beatle, do you need to lvl it? Nope, its all about the passive.
Thank you for sharing all this info!! Im getting burned out , need this item gotta run this level 5x ! Your way id much better! Also i was running the mission in echo swamp for gold kuiper and leveling up my descendant. I picked up a lot of vault decoders 😆 so enzo gonna be busy tonight 😅thanks again for sharing
The game is a grind. That's all the game is. That's why the majority of gamers have quit the LD. Games including grinding for a larger purpose and goal. A game built only on grinding is not actually a game. It's work and that's not why people play games.
@@TuxedoBandido Yep. Needs a massive open battle mode where players can choose the Descendant they want to use in open warzone 'esk fights. Think COD MW3 Zombies but with Vulgus. PVE.
Ntm the work for F2P players to actually get the characters in the first place. A buddy of mine introduced me this saying he liked it, but after playing it for awhile, I don’t see how he had any interest in it considering complains about games u gotta grind

FD just has brutal loot tables... so i'm taking a break until they implement mercy mechanic which apparently is this TVA-0 shop or whatever it's called if it's actually a mercy mechanic i'll play again... if not i'm uninstalling again same for next season.... if it's single-player then i'm not playing it
Block Kuiper mining is fairly easy to lvl up and lvl up your weapon . Farmed 4 ultimates in 2 weeks it's not hard if you invest some boring time in the outposts with Sharon. If public maps are issues just go to Private and get Sharons Camo up to at least 18sec with 4th stage THundercage then your good to go. Don't forget you can complete half the infil then duck behind a wall cancel your Camo then wait for your CD to recharge then pop back in and finish it. Just make sure to get behind the wall right before your camo expires and you'll have 45sec countdown for your camo to recharge and pop back in.
I actually think energy activators are the bottleneck. Yes, you have to wait for catalysts to craft, but getting the activator blueprints to drop is awful
I mean... gold calculations aint quite right. Once you max out a mod you can use it on all descendants, so say... if you max the HP and DEF mods, you wont have to upgrade them again for other descendants
If you're going to run public infiltrations on 250%, please learn which enemies to NOT SKIP to get the guaranteed double a-mats. Granted there are exceptions like Magister Lab where it's not worth the extra time.
I always have people rushing to pick up the 30 biometric codes, preventing us from reaching the score needed for 100% double amorphous. Quite the annoyance, but I try not to say anything.
Will if y'all stop killed all the ads B4 the very first door open and let the mini boss come in and kill it. Y'all would not have to worry about reaching score at bio code section@@Fxrrxt2x
i found doing the kingston fusion reactor gives more low carbon activators because its two bosses instead of one and you can do it over and over and over without waiting
I think the r n g is all wrong. Some things with a 6% drop is more like a 0.6% drop. The game has just worn me out doing the same things over and over and over.
@@Jon_ELthat’s why Sheren is very important, you get better results when you hack than going in guns blazing. When you hack you can get results back to back or a two try down time. But it’s never more than three tries.
It's the repetition that takes a toll. Level 40 12x per descendant, 16 descendants. Ouch. Weapons suck too, but truly, how many weapons are you really going to max-cata on? Me, not many cause most arent worth even shooting, and Passive Buff weapons dont need catas. Hope these Free Downloads Help.

The module upgrade cost drops off after you maxed 1-2 descendants as most reuse the same mods... The kicker is the catalysts that can't be crafted fast enough, and the ultimate weapons that you are maxing requiring a ton of gold to reroll the stats
In fact i have 40 mil gold and 20 Catalysts in stock + 10 mil kuiper. I am sure there are people with more but much more with less. The really big question is: do you really want to build EVERY character? I concentrate on a few (Viessa, Valby, Bunny, Hailey, Enzo, Sharen) and the rest is only pushed to 40 once for mastery.
I build all of my Ults + Hailey and 4 weapons. I'm not touching anything else until they will improve the grind. I was doing Caligo Ossuary solo with Bunny for weapon xp. At least I got hundreds of amorphous meterials
as long as you have only play a few favorite Descendants then it's all good. For me, Bunny and Hailey are my favorites so it won't take as much time as u think.
Numbers seem extremely exaggerated. 1) Descendants generally need about 9 (or 7 for ultimates) to fully catalyse (assuming you arent purposely catalysing out stuff). 2) 550m to level descendant mods? Do you not know that general mods are shared between descendants?
8 full max character her and 6 weapon now i just stack full activator and catalyst and wait good weapon or good character 😅 that a good video for beginners i think that help a lot of players ❤
Maxing out mods are definitely a waste when starting out. The mod costs skyrocket after rank 7-8 for very little benefit. Maxing transcendent mods are especially a waste, sometimes the final rank doesn't even do anything but costs millions of gold and Kuiper. If you're going for pure cost savings, I've found just stopping at 7-8 will still give you access to a decent mod, while saving on millions of gold and Kuiper AND having more room to actually complete your build somewhat for less catalysts. You can max them later once you have the room and money.
Let's be fair now, after you have at least 100 hr in the game the most mods should be already lvp up, now with invasion we can get 5M a day if you have Mark or Arrest and use them before the mission is done and you have a Gold Boost of 30% you can get some nice numbers, Kuiper should not be an issue, just doing dungeons and getting mods while leveling up Descendants can bring up to 100K Kuiper a day depending how many runs you have done, on a good day I would say that around 500 to 600K kuiper is coming just from mods, but there are around 50 runs done a day on the Dungeon because now with Hailey you can kill bosses so fast, the loading screen and restart with the Team is taking more than actually killing the boss. Now not every one has 4 to 5 hr a day to spend Playing, Resources for Catalysts should not be a problem, if you run the Bunny run in Echo Swamp you will get Encrypted Keys to the Vaults, good amount of Gold and Kuiper if you are running with bunny, around 3 to 4M gold per Hour and good Weapon XP. 1.It all comes down to the path you take every day. First thing when you log in you should have a Catalyst ready to get and put another one, Activator as well if you have the BP. 2.Invasion should be the next thing to do. 3.Do some Bunny runs in Echo Swamp to get lvl on your weapons if needed. 4.Do some dungeons runs with 250% Score Multi alone if you can or with a team if you can't alone. 5.Go to the Colossus and Open the Amorphs to get some Catalyst and Activator BP(Don't expect them to drop too much) 6.Farm the Resources if you need to craft Catalyst and Activator, if you don't need stack up on other resources that you will need in the future in case you are close to build a Weapon and just need a couple more parts. 7.Don't go for ultimate's on Purpose, it will be a pain in most cases to get the parts(Trust me I have all of them and normal variants as well) 8.If you still have some free time left and don't know what to do, farm more dungeons, can't waste that precious time waiting in albion doing nothing. This are the things that I'm doing every day and I'm sitting with 25+ Catalyst BP and at least 1 or 2 Energy Activators BP every week. It works for me, so it can work for others, and I only have 2hr a day during the week to play, and more is done during the weekend
I love the invasions for gold. I would have added it in to these as a first step, but hard to take a new unleveled descendant in there, aaaaaand so many people are not fans of that content. But personally, its a "gold mine" for me. People who have all their mods leveled up usually don't need a guide for XP leveling. Audience is intended for those that need the help, or want to diversify their leveling approach.
I'm burnt out just trying to get weapon blueprints I just got my first ultimate and it took me 3 weeks to get the ult lepic code to drop I got ult Ajax code before ult lepic
@@spyro01usn When you say 3 weeks what does that mean in hours ? Also what else did drop while you were farming Ult Lep code ? I unlocked Hailey within a week / 36 hours ish while farming 4 copies of the Enduring Legacy , also got cat and activator blueprints , gold , kuiper , XP , copies for the Python ect. I see it as a win/win , but that's just me .
@@airborne1868 oh the game I'm not burnt out on it was more so trying to get the blueprints for certain weapons and not getting the right one to drop it's not so much burnt out it's more so discouraged afters spending amorphous after amorphous to get the blueprints it taking for ever and once you get the weapon you look only to realize you have to get each blueprint 4 more times just to boost the unique perk
@@airborne1868 4 hours every day for 3 weeks that getting the amorphous for the reactors I was either getting the nazeistra devotion blueprint repeatedly, jabber blueprint, , Enzo blueprint or the luck of a random drop the ultimate Ajax code. One day I had 2 left to spend I got 2 ult lepic code back to back I had such horrible rng I couldn't even be happy about it I am now that he's been crafted and I understand that there has to be some sort of a grind in this game. But some of the percentages for drops or the fact when you finally get the blueprints for a weapon after trying for so long only to have to get 4 more of each blueprint again it gets discouraging. I love the game it's fun but it reminds me of the destiny grind and that along killed the enjoyment for a lot of players.
why run that mission when u can run block kuiper mine and it gives the same amount of xp or more plus u get gold for the rewards of the waves and kuiper so that solvers your xp and gold and kuiper problem
Or you could just do biolab and do it 4 to 5 times to get to level 40 and I can do this all by myself but faster the only downside about playing it with other Randazzo's is you might not always get the second amorphous each time I completed biolab I went from 1 to 18 to 25 to 30 to 35 then 40
Is it fair to say your math is off there... I mean sure it costs a lot to level 1 Descendants mods... but you cannot times that by each descendant as a lot of mods cross over.... or did you math for that? Still though the grind is real.
Surely. But this is a 'forest or the trees' scenario. People are farming gold like crazy. That gold went somewhere. I have dozens of mods maxed out because the weapons and descendant skill types required different options, although some could be used more than once, mods like Attack and React i had to do 3 times because of ammo type. Then Focus on Dimension, Focus on Fusion, Focus on Singular, and the list kept going. I have 16 descendants and still leveling mods. I don't have gold issues because of the long crafting time on the catas. That pain is also my saving grace.
This is helpful but im gonna level with you...they have until warframes next big update till im gone for good. The grind for this is just soo crazy. Energy activators is driving me mad
you can use mods on more than one descendants.... that math is so wrong also i doubt that many people have a bunny friend to do all those activites together in that order.... and if they dont, those times are way too low for pug runs.
It’s just a gist and more mods on their way on October 10 and beyond. I think people get the idea. How many millions have you spent on mods? I’m still leveling mods to this day and I have all 16 descendants. I didn’t even bring weapon mods into the equation. It gets so much higher than what I mentioned. You will see. Just give it time. (P.s. all I do is pug runs)
@@TuxedoBandido i have 126mil lying around. you get 5mil every day from 15 minutes invasions. but then again, i am a meta slave and play really efficient and probably havent leveled up as many mods as most people do.
@@arixbray1975 He might have leveled and built everything he needs at this point. It's the same with warframe. Once you have nothing to build or level, gold won't be a problem anymore for new content. Just do Sterile land block kuiper mining or in echo swamp.
@@arixbray1975 That's the biggest grind though, once the mods are levelled up farming actually gets way easier. Quite a lot of mods can be used of every descendant.
I spend 2 days perfecting ult viessa build and she ends up useless and i have weapons with full builds she is only usefull against mobs and b7nny surpasses all other descendants in mobs so i end up asking myself why did even try all you need is enzo for bosses and bunny for mobs with maxed weapons
@@AA-ts4ff Enzo is great for bossing only if you have Firearm enhance supply mod and fully catalyzed and upgraded enduring legacy, which is now after update really hard to obtain.

@@airborne1868 Let's say casual gamer plays 2, maybe 3 hours a day. That is 12 days just to get this weapon if you are lucky. Where is time needed to level up and put 8 catalyst in it...

It's the repetition that takes a toll. Level 40 12x per descendant, 16 descendants. Ouch. Weapons suck too, but truly, how many weapons are you really going to max-cata on? Me, not many cause most arent worth even shooting, and Passive Buff weapons dont need catas. Hope these Free Downloads Help.

The module upgrade cost drops off after you maxed 1-2 descendants as most reuse the same mods...
The kicker is the catalysts that can't be crafted fast enough, and the ultimate weapons that you are maxing requiring a ton of gold to reroll the stats
It's ridiculous that there's even a crafting timer at all for anything
this guide is really helpful and awesome, thanks
Nice Work!!
In fact i have 40 mil gold and 20 Catalysts in stock + 10 mil kuiper. I am sure there are people with more but much more with less.
The really big question is: do you really want to build EVERY character? I concentrate on a few (Viessa, Valby, Bunny, Hailey, Enzo, Sharen) and the rest is only pushed to 40 once for mastery.
I build all of my Ults + Hailey and 4 weapons. I'm not touching anything else until they will improve the grind. I was doing Caligo Ossuary solo with Bunny for weapon xp. At least I got hundreds of amorphous meterials
This is brilliant! Thanks Tux.
Anything I can do to help us ease the pain. We need to stop grinding and start playing more.
Thanks for the guideeeee
Happy to help!
Great video thanks !
as long as you have only play a few favorite Descendants then it's all good. For me, Bunny and Hailey are my favorites so it won't take as much time as u think.
Numbers seem extremely exaggerated.
1) Descendants generally need about 9 (or 7 for ultimates) to fully catalyse (assuming you arent purposely catalysing out stuff).
2) 550m to level descendant mods? Do you not know that general mods are shared between descendants?
I think maybe because we can multiple catalyse mod slots for multiple builds is the reason.
8 full max character her and 6 weapon now i just stack full activator and catalyst and wait good weapon or good character 😅 that a good video for beginners i think that help a lot of players ❤
Thank you for this tux cracking video
Maxing out mods are definitely a waste when starting out. The mod costs skyrocket after rank 7-8 for very little benefit. Maxing transcendent mods are especially a waste, sometimes the final rank doesn't even do anything but costs millions of gold and Kuiper. If you're going for pure cost savings, I've found just stopping at 7-8 will still give you access to a decent mod, while saving on millions of gold and Kuiper AND having more room to actually complete your build somewhat for less catalysts. You can max them later once you have the room and money.
Great video
Is the daily quests for gold and kuiper done? I have not had any pop up for several days. With 850hrs in that was a nice chance for gold and kuiper.
Yeah, ended Sunday night. I already miss it. It was so good
0:12 That's a cool intro. It reminds me of Arcane and True Damage music video of League of Legends.
Do you have to do this on hard mode or can you get the same xp on normal?
Great video thank you. I will def save and use. +1
Let's be fair now, after you have at least 100 hr in the game the most mods should be already lvp up, now with invasion we can get 5M a day if you have Mark or Arrest and use them before the mission is done and you have a Gold Boost of 30% you can get some nice numbers, Kuiper should not be an issue, just doing dungeons and getting mods while leveling up Descendants can bring up to 100K Kuiper a day depending how many runs you have done, on a good day I would say that around 500 to 600K kuiper is coming just from mods, but there are around 50 runs done a day on the Dungeon because now with Hailey you can kill bosses so fast, the loading screen and restart with the Team is taking more than actually killing the boss. Now not every one has 4 to 5 hr a day to spend Playing, Resources for Catalysts should not be a problem, if you run the Bunny run in Echo Swamp you will get Encrypted Keys to the Vaults, good amount of Gold and Kuiper if you are running with bunny, around 3 to 4M gold per Hour and good Weapon XP.
1.It all comes down to the path you take every day. First thing when you log in you should have a Catalyst ready to get and put another one, Activator as well if you have the BP.
2.Invasion should be the next thing to do.
3.Do some Bunny runs in Echo Swamp to get lvl on your weapons if needed.
4.Do some dungeons runs with 250% Score Multi alone if you can or with a team if you can't alone.
5.Go to the Colossus and Open the Amorphs to get some Catalyst and Activator BP(Don't expect them to drop too much)
6.Farm the Resources if you need to craft Catalyst and Activator, if you don't need stack up on other resources that you will need in the future in case you are close to build a Weapon and just need a couple more parts.
7.Don't go for ultimate's on Purpose, it will be a pain in most cases to get the parts(Trust me I have all of them and normal variants as well)
8.If you still have some free time left and don't know what to do, farm more dungeons, can't waste that precious time waiting in albion doing nothing.
This are the things that I'm doing every day and I'm sitting with 25+ Catalyst BP and at least 1 or 2 Energy Activators BP every week.
It works for me, so it can work for others, and I only have 2hr a day during the week to play, and more is done during the weekend
I love the invasions for gold. I would have added it in to these as a first step, but hard to take a new unleveled descendant in there, aaaaaand so many people are not fans of that content. But personally, its a "gold mine" for me. People who have all their mods leveled up usually don't need a guide for XP leveling. Audience is intended for those that need the help, or want to diversify their leveling approach.
ooh, i like your dont go for ults on purpose tip. That was my secret too. Secret to sanity.
i have no problem with maxing descendants. its the guns that takes too long to grind.
i already burn out after maxing 4 ultmate, 3 normal and 5 ultimate weapon. now i just log in to craft, grinding mats
I'm burnt out just trying to get weapon blueprints I just got my first ultimate and it took me 3 weeks to get the ult lepic code to drop I got ult Ajax code before ult lepic
If you get burnt out over a video game you need to take a break and touch some grass , that shit ain't healthy .
@@spyro01usn When you say 3 weeks what does that mean in hours ? Also what else did drop while you were farming Ult Lep code ? I unlocked Hailey within a week / 36 hours ish while farming 4 copies of the Enduring Legacy , also got cat and activator blueprints , gold , kuiper , XP , copies for the Python ect. I see it as a win/win , but that's just me .
@@airborne1868 oh the game I'm not burnt out on it was more so trying to get the blueprints for certain weapons and not getting the right one to drop it's not so much burnt out it's more so discouraged afters spending amorphous after amorphous to get the blueprints it taking for ever and once you get the weapon you look only to realize you have to get each blueprint 4 more times just to boost the unique perk
@@airborne1868 4 hours every day for 3 weeks that getting the amorphous for the reactors I was either getting the nazeistra devotion blueprint repeatedly, jabber blueprint, , Enzo blueprint or the luck of a random drop the ultimate Ajax code. One day I had 2 left to spend I got 2 ult lepic code back to back I had such horrible rng I couldn't even be happy about it I am now that he's been crafted and I understand that there has to be some sort of a grind in this game. But some of the percentages for drops or the fact when you finally get the blueprints for a weapon after trying for so long only to have to get 4 more of each blueprint again it gets discouraging. I love the game it's fun but it reminds me of the destiny grind and that along killed the enjoyment for a lot of players.
why run that mission when u can run block kuiper mine and it gives the same amount of xp or more plus u get gold for the rewards of the waves and kuiper so that solvers your xp and gold and kuiper problem
Just do the magister lab with 250% .... And use daily boost and u would have done lvl up pretty fast along with weapon xp which u r holding
I don’t play no where near as much as I did, I get on and farm for catalyst and transducer and get off
were are the Low Carbon Activators you need for EA?
Where can I download the list?
Or you could just do biolab and do it 4 to 5 times to get to level 40 and I can do this all by myself but faster the only downside about playing it with other Randazzo's is you might not always get the second amorphous each time I completed biolab I went from 1 to 18 to 25 to 30 to 35 then 40
Can you do this but for weapons please?!
Hmm. Let me see if I can get something saucey together.
I prefer to take my time with this game because i really like playing and grinding it really keeps me busy.
16mins on spec. Ops is crazy. Maybe I’m just use to carrying a group
Is it fair to say your math is off there... I mean sure it costs a lot to level 1 Descendants mods... but you cannot times that by each descendant as a lot of mods cross over.... or did you math for that? Still though the grind is real.
Why tf would I max out every descendant or weapon in the game ??? Get them to lvl40 for the mastery rank and work on the ones you actually use .
Fortress special operation is the new best place
also not nearly that much money, money isnt a problem most of the mods are the same for all decendants
Surely. But this is a 'forest or the trees' scenario. People are farming gold like crazy. That gold went somewhere. I have dozens of mods maxed out because the weapons and descendant skill types required different options, although some could be used more than once, mods like Attack and React i had to do 3 times because of ammo type. Then Focus on Dimension, Focus on Fusion, Focus on Singular, and the list kept going. I have 16 descendants and still leveling mods. I don't have gold issues because of the long crafting time on the catas. That pain is also my saving grace.
This is helpful but im gonna level with you...they have until warframes next big update till im gone for good. The grind for this is just soo crazy. Energy activators is driving me mad
Energy activator RNG my challenge as well
Download did not work for me.
Just run sterile land kuiper mine 10 levels twice and you're at lvl40. Weapon xp is the issue.
Are these to be run in hard or normal?
Hard plus the 250%
@@airborne1868 thanks
You don’t need to max out every character
I use biolab. 192.000xp every run.
It's so easy to level up even without this method 😂😂 bro people just complain about everything
At this point i have more kiper than gold and i have 7.6 mill
you can use mods on more than one descendants.... that math is so wrong
also i doubt that many people have a bunny friend to do all those activites together in that order.... and if they dont, those times are way too low for pug runs.
It’s just a gist and more mods on their way on October 10 and beyond. I think people get the idea. How many millions have you spent on mods? I’m still leveling mods to this day and I have all 16 descendants. I didn’t even bring weapon mods into the equation. It gets so much higher than what I mentioned. You will see. Just give it time. (P.s. all I do is pug runs)
@@TuxedoBandido i have 126mil lying around. you get 5mil every day from 15 minutes invasions. but then again, i am a meta slave and play really efficient and probably havent leveled up as many mods as most people do.
leveling weapon xp makes me want to uninstall. They really need to increase weapon xp by 100% across the board.
im at almost 100m gold now gold and keiper not an issue for me
Please tell me your secret LOL. I’m just in a hole due to leveling up mods 😭
@@arixbray1975 He might have leveled and built everything he needs at this point. It's the same with warframe. Once you have nothing to build or level, gold won't be a problem anymore for new content. Just do Sterile land block kuiper mining or in echo swamp.
Yeah. I’m over the gold issue too. Cause I have all my descendants and mains built. Those daily invasions at 5million don’t hurt.
@@arixbray1975 That's the biggest grind though, once the mods are levelled up farming actually gets way easier. Quite a lot of mods can be used of every descendant.
@@arixbray1975 You get 5millions doing Invasions everyday, the devs also gave away 1mill every day.
Bruh...are you the type that complains theres nothing else to do after finishing everything in a week?
Are you?
Id take off the gold for mods cause you use the same for most of them.
Nah ill stick to my Bunny cave
Drop rate is also trash!
Bio lab is faster than asylum
I spend 2 days perfecting ult viessa build and she ends up useless and i have weapons with full builds she is only usefull against mobs and b7nny surpasses all other descendants in mobs so i end up asking myself why did even try all you need is enzo for bosses and bunny for mobs with maxed weapons
@@AA-ts4ff Enzo is great for bossing only if you have Firearm enhance supply mod and fully catalyzed and upgraded enduring legacy, which is now after update really hard to obtain. It was 32% chance for parts, now two parts are 10% chance. And you need 5 copies of that weapon to fully upgrade ability. Good luck getting 5 pieces of every component
@@brankojurisa6613 i already have both firearm enhace supply and enduring legacy with full build maxed out
I wanted to play some other way bcs i got bored
@@brankojurisa6613 took me 36 hours ish to grind for 4 copies and I unlocked Hailey + tons of other drops .
@@airborne1868 Let's say casual gamer plays 2, maybe 3 hours a day. That is 12 days just to get this weapon if you are lucky. Where is time needed to level up and put 8 catalyst in it...
I hade 20mil gold n 2mil kiper now am poor
You already started poor 🤣🤣🤣. I spend over 1,000,000,000 gold and I have just 4 descendants and 5 ult weapons + 1 launcher maxed .
Cooldown, long reload etc etc .. I remember when Batman crashed on the street because he overused his grapple gun too much in a short amount of time and didn’t get that xp to level up his cooldown
Lmao who struggles with the xp ? Just go to Kingston and you daily free xp gain from daily task
