You don't need maiming strike. The only enemies that don't die in one hit(slide attack) in this mission are bombards. You just have to be careful and use finishers on them.
No it's not a scam... You can get affinity boosters very easily. It's normal to be running with one 100% of the time if you know what you're doing. And of course I don't mean just buying it with real money.
Not easily and it's not normal. The only way to get booster is eitehr with prime access then yes for those people it's pretty standard. Everyone else have to spend up to 200p for one. And don't say from Baro becuase theyr'e even more expensive. But he just probably forgot to mention the booster that's all.
If you have to go through all this effort then the focus system needs another rework. There should be daily missions that reward 5-10k focus so that new players can actually get some early on.
Yup this method is obtuse and ridiculous that it's a necessity to get it done fast. My video reviewing the actual Focus rework will be going into that in depth
you never have to go through this. this is a choice to get a lot of focus fast. if you want to max your focus every day this is the quickest way to do it. you could also just play alot in normal missions or not cap every day. casual players are not min-max-ers.
1. You don't mention if you had Affinity booster. 2. Naramon extra Affinity for melee kills would probably be awesome for runs like this specially if you have an Energize set.
tested this with naramon just now. the bonus affinity only applies to the melee weapon, not the half that goes into your frame. energy is still plenty manageable without zenurik though, so hey any bonus affinity is good affinity
I tried Orthos P a while ago, and it just broke combos over and over despite everything sleeping and being 1-shot. I figured it was because the range was too much and I was hitting walls which alerts things. even while they're sleeping. Was that patched?
Wanted to say thank you for quality guides like this, and the effort you put in to make them as accurate as possible, talking about the strengths and, as importantly, weaknesses of frames/weapons in a realistic way. You are the dedicated, thorough tester we (players interested in "inside baseball" as you put it in your tigris prime WWYU) need, and your content is invaluably helpful to us. Thank you so much.
Dude this method is amazing. Stumbled a bit on the first 2 runs, but on third run I already get 40k focus with normal lenses. Will definitely abuse this tomorrow, when my eidolon lens finishes building and that sweet affinity booster from Baro will make its way in my pocket.
Been using this for a while now. Sadly even with this method, and the daily cap? It's still gonna take 400+ days of constant daily capping of the focus to max things. Just ridiculous...
when you account the ammount of capacity you need to be able to equip all passives in every school (you still need 7-15 capacity to equip each of the unbound passives in every focus school) it adds up to 400+ due to the capacity focus costs not having a cost cap(eventually increasing maximum way capacity costs hundreds of thousands or even millions per point.)
Sean you can now trade in radiant eidolon shards for 25k focus each and it doesn't count towards your daily cap. You need 40 for a million focus so it's not as bad anymore.
I made a Guandao build without Maiming Strike that can one-shot every Grineer unit (tested on Heavy Gunners and Hyekka Masters) up to level 48. The mission is 32-36 so it works really well. What you wanna do is build the Guandao for pure damage, so no crit or combo mods. I used the following mods: Shimmering Blight stance, Primed Pressure Point, Primed Reach, Fury, Spoiled Strike, Fever Strike, Shocking Touch, Virulent Scourge and Voltaic Strike. I use Fury instead of Berserker because we don't crit as often, although Berserker still works well so YMMV.
SekruTheGreat that is true, but unless you want to use a lot of energy restores, arcane energize, or wait for energy siphon to refill, Zenurik is much better. In my case, I don't have Zenurik dash so I'll resort to using energy pads and naramon.
Except there is a focus cap so it doesn't matter , you would probably reach it in one less run with naramon that like 6 mins save whoop de doo but you are going to spend a lot more doing so . Free energy from zenurik is much better
JVJD, it might be 6 mins saved, but in truth, it may end up as 12 or more if you dont have an affinity booster on. also, energy pad are so cheap to make, using them as an excuse, makes almost no sense. they are so cheap, you will probably pay for more than a pack each time you complete the mission, making it, a non issue. finally, you might even not really need that much extra energy either, since you will be getting energy spheres from downed enemies, from time to time.
Just to better clarify for those who havnt observed focus for too long. With a good res quake banshee, buff rhino and sometimes buff equinox on your team with no affinity booster. youll clear Hydron 20 waves in 20 minutes and the best your gonna get is 40k focus again with no booster. I just ran this method of this video a few times now and i can already tell you that in 5 minutes each with no booster solo you can earn 35 - 40k focus PER RUN! obviously a booster will help but god damn does this beat Hydron any other day in speed for the same amount of reward. With that in mind at best with 40k youll have to run this mission about 7 times which at fastest 5 mins would be 35 mins total and at worst lets say 30k would be 9 runs in 5 mins will total to be 45. in less than an hour youll cap out in focus daily and I thank Brozime for showing us this because ive known about adaro and used ivara for solo weap farming but couldnt see the focus farming aspect of it until today. An hours worth of farming is a drop in the bucket compared to Hydron set up or Bere.
I don't get it, to get melee bonus affinity you need to activate naramon school, yet he using zenurik for void energy blast for energy and still gets additional focus from melee. Wouldn't it be more accurate to activate naramon and insert lens with desired focus to farm focus for THAT school? P.s. no unbinded skills
The 45% melee xp node from the namaron school boosts your focus gain per mission so much that you save 1 whole run in average per day. You lose the energy regen but if you don't channel your melee attacks you don't need it. I personally don't have problems with enemies finding bodies because I don't let my sleep timer run out. And a non Maiming Strike build feeels a lot more fluent and fast. You needed ages to kill single targets while killing groups took the same time. The only benefit Maiming Strike gives is that you can one hit Bombards sooner. Without Maiming Strike you need a combo counter of x2 (with Orthos Prime) to do that which is achievable very quickly. Use the freed up mod slots either for cold (+25% against Bombards) or radiation (+75% against bombards but no bonus against ferrit armor). I tried both builds. With and without Maiming Strike and my results were the same while it felt a lot more quicker and comfortable using only quick melee attacks instead of slow slide attacks.
Lol i remember when i farmed equinox the first time it took a couple tries but i got all the parts. I ended up selling her at some point though. I started to farm her again 4 momths ago now and im still missing 2 pieaces. GG
6:00 OK, so when I used to do this with Ivara I noticed something. I can put alerted enemies to sleep and then stealth kill them without losing the stealth affinity multiplier. I don't know if it's something unique to Ivara's sleep arrow and/or prowl (it's been a while since I bothered with focus) but it was very consistent. The animation's a pain but heck it's better than losing a 500% multiplier. Side note, thank you for confirming that energizing dash works on the person who cast it, I had been wondering about that.
Another tip: If you equip the Naramon school with Affinity spike you have +45% affinity/focus for your meele weapon even if it is equipped with lenses from another school. (although you will need energy pizzas)
I was farming focus with this build and small lenses for last 2 weeks and yesterday i used my new Eidolon zenurik lens. Small naramon lens on Equinox, Eidolon zenurik lens on Guandao, naramon primary for +35% bonus affinity from melee and affinity booster with a pretty good run where I didn't mess my 5x stealth counter yielded me 99k for zenurik and 40k for naramon. With 2 Eidolons and booster you can pretty much get 150-200k in one exterminate. I also don't think zenurik primary is needed. One medium energy restore in the beggining is enough.
its rediculous the amount of focus you need to max a tree not to talck about some skills scale poorly and still not worth the grinds bu i kinda liked this new focus rework but i think it was poorly executed maybe in the future focus 3.0 with and higher daily cap and a proper scaling oh by the way loved your colour scheme looks dope man
Imo, it should take a large amount of time to max a skill tree, not a couple hours and you have everything, and some of the unlocks are reaaaaaaaally good, alike energizing dash, and sure, maybe it isnt as good as energy overload or whatever, but that was waaaaaay too good to have, as it allowed you to run super energy inefficient build, and pump everything into power strength, and have almost no drawbacks.
I think its also important to note that this is very efficient if you're playing solo. Hydron banshee requires assembling a team to get the most out of it (especially when mob spawn/density scales with number of players....), so this farming technique is a huge advantage if you like to play solo!
Wait, so why the focus on Range as opposed to Duration? One of those corrupted mods puts a malus on Duration, and it seems like it's in your best interest to have them asleep as long as possible. Also, is Calm and Frenzy really much use when it does the spreading upon killing a foe, at which point the spread range is short enough that you'll usually trigger someone else before they actually sleep.
Good thing I got a riven for the Guandao with range lol. But the only thing is I have terrible time actually getting anything over 5k focus, it's pretty annoying.
The focus grind put a real downer on this update for me. The millions and millions of points is just absurd for anyone who doesn't exclusively play warframe, or like me has a wife and kid that need attention. So much grinding I cant play for the fun I gotta play to accomplish a specific grind...not fun
Nice vid, could I trouble you for a vid with Ivara? I don't know if I want to level up Equinox, also are there any good alternatives to the primed mods you have?
You honestly don't need memeing strike. Just make sure you do finishers on the mobs you can't 1hko and you'll be okay. Granted that's a bit more tedious and riskier so it's up to you.
Ehh it's not necessary, just stack damage on your weapon of choice and it'll work. I don't have maiming strike and I tested out different combinations today to find the best one and I found this one the best: 2 forma Orthos Prime: P. Pressure Point, P. Reach, Spoiled Strike, Focus Energy + Molten Impact + Shocking Touch (Radiation and -channeling cost), Fever Strike + North Wind (Viral), Shimmering Bright Keeping melee channeling on at all times to leave no bodies behind and do more damage (And it doesn't cost as much to do it with this build) This oaths build oneshots everything with a slide attack (Including Bombards/Napalms/Heavy Gunners) and weaker units with a normal attack because of Radiation being strong against the Alloy Armor Bombards and Napalms as well as most of the enemies you encounter have and Viral being strong against all Grineer.
I think this build is using eidolon lenses and an affinity booster. Without an affinity booster and only using greater lenses, I only get like 12k to 13k per run.
I lose the stealth bonus 2-3 times per run because of strong enemies that don't die in one slide attack with Orthos Prime, and get around 35-40k per run. I have normal Lens on Equinox and Greater Lens on Orthos Prime without booster.
This doesn't work when I try it. The transference orb keeps spawn in impossible to reach places. I've had it spawn 600m away that disappeared before I could get to it. I had one spawn at the bottom of a pit where even if I jump in to get it the game just respawns me before I reach it.
I actually hadn't thought of channeling for that. 5 of my 6 equinox's have different lenses for this (and mostly for recognizing them faster). Hurass kubrows are helpful. You might want the enemy radar aura too. I hope to be able to farm maiming strike (and nano applicator) next time I can.
I tried to setup something to auto hit 2 and it fucks up all my other movement, my guy will roll when i press shift, he won't slide attack he will interrupt his own slide attack to do a finisher, etc... I have tried all different intervals and nothing works.
Hmm I am aware of this method and understand why and how it works but just a bit of a theory I thought of while watching this wouldn't Vauban's Bastille with maximum range be capable of the same thing since it freezes enemy awareness states?
What cheat code did you use to group the enemies up so nicely? . I'm consistently getting 20-30k focus per run with 2 greater lenses and no affinity booster. ~5-10k affinity per orb if nothing fucks up. ~10-20mins per run. Always that 1 explosive barrel or stray grineer to fuck up my entire run. Or they're spread out nicely among many platforms. Ugh. Any tips greatly appreciated. Equinox with Orthos P.
So I got a question. I tried the exact same thing that you did. Orthos prime with a greater lens, and then sleep equinox with a greater lens for another focus tree. In total after a run, I end up with between 12,000 and 26,000 focus. 12 if I get seen a couple of times, and 30k on a really good run where I'm not seen at all. What am I doing wrong?
Ok. So essentially even after 400h on this game i probably need like 100 more to even have all the things required to attempt this kind of run. All of this to farm a "resource" that i unlocked probably...200h ago? This shows how pathetic Focus is atm. Fast and concise, smart and chill guy...ok subbed
Even with these builds I still find myself in rooms with 20+ enemies close together, but on different ground levels which is kind of annoying. Once I've put them to sleep I've either missed one or different enemy walks into the room and alerts more aggros and it ruins everything. Farming Focus in WF is a HUGE pain in ass.
Using the Atterax and the same build I find that maiming strike is meh. When I swapped out buzz kill for it I realized i’d knock enemies to the ground (thinking they’re dead) but then only dealing half of their health pool in damage.. i was getting 17k focus with maiming strike and 66-76k with buzz kill???
I also bring my smeeta kitty around for these. Juicy 120 sec of double affinity is pretty noticable. Usually cap out in 2 runs, sometimes 3. (with aff booster)
i rlly needed this guide....im an idiot and dont have friends on warframe to organise groups with.now just gotta find a weapon i can do this with (Lesion works good enough?)oh yeah...and fine meself some new Greater lenses...already wasted em on my Nyx and Nidus. (smaller lenses work???)I at least had a Ivara and Equinox tough so thats good (Ivara may be slower but wouldn't she be more consistent? with prowl and sleep arrows?
i dont have equinox but i plan on getting him/her just for focus farming so my question is when equi put enemies to sleep does the timer on the sleep resets when you cast the ability again?
I just ran this and it took me a while to get used to it so I only kept my stealth kill boost for about the last 75 enemies. I grabbed the convergence orbs as well but I only ended up getting 6k focus on my atterax. What?
I realize this vid is old but thought I'd post this in hopes of getting help and to help anyone else that comes across this: What autokey program is brozime using? If not brozime then what autokey program are others using? I've tried several now and none have worked as well as the one he's using in the vid. The best one I found so far has me ducking/sliding a lot after doing it only once :/ inevitably I fall down a hole or can't spin to win a group of enemies, they wake up and there goes my efficiency...
I use Orthos Prime and it work well. Only bombard can sometimes survive the hit. I use naramon for an extra 45% melee affinity and use energy pod when im out of energy. 545% bonus in total
Just realized how much farming this is... I just finished maxing out my Madurai - including the 2 way bound which are 1 million each... at this point with all nodes to increase it I need 90k to 100k just to increase my node. If for example I have a waybound from zenurik with 16 points, I need 16 points in my Madurai which is like 100k a point at this time, they have 2 each tree... do we know if there's a cap on how many waybound an operator can equip?
Much more worth it to do Elite Sanctuary Onslaught now (this was before that was released) with Volt or Saryn because of all the radiant relic drops. I eventually amassed more radiant relics than intact ones. Crazy
Hi. I give u a tip. Do defence on hydron wth sayren. I make 80k fokus every 10 waves and it takes me like 5minutes. And its chilled as hell. What u does there is an cool idea but it takes to long and its kinda stressy to keep run arround and put all in sleep. On my way u can drink coffe and eat in same time while u make 80k focus in 5 mins. And also i think for ur method Ivara would be better cause u can pile all the enemys to 1 spot wth her arrow and put the all togheter to sleep plus u never get spotted at all.
im actually interested to know which is that third not so good for this warframe im rn running random builds thru my head, like ash with fatal tel, duration build and that arcane, but the bodies... or excal
What I don't get is if enemies do evaporate when you put them asleep and Channel your melee on them like you showed then how come I've tried it a lot and yet they don't evaporate at all no many how many times I do it the same way you did????
you actually don't need to get them all, those you miss will just run to extraction point. This potentially could attempted to abuse, but when i tried it there came up some issues.
when it comes to equinox only issue i have with her is that your sleep has to have a target and i find that ALOT of the time it wont let me cast it and i end up getting seen by someone befor ei can sleep them. I use a max range build but it doesn't always sleep an entire room effectively. but i heard they nerfed ivara for these runs...
i have that same build for the atterax,except no primed p point,and all enemies survive if i dont have a counter.bombaards and heavy gunner survive even with a counter.i planned on using it to level up naramon and the guandao for zenurik any tips?
So quick question I wanted to ask. Has anyone done this as a group? I mena like getting a group of sleepy time equinoxes together and just slashing through? I ask because it seems like a good idea on paper but I am not sure how well it would work in the long run.
umm I'm using your atterax build to a tee, yet I can't even one-shot level 20s with it how I'm I supposed to run this mission if I can't even kill level 20s with slide attacks? I slide attack with maiming strike and don't even get a normal criticism from doing so just a bunch of white 22s and 25s for damage numbers so whats up?
Could the Maiming strike be replaced with a maxed sacrificial steel? So you would get +90% critical chance on all attacks instead of just sliding attacks. It would need another forma though.
kind of necroing this but meme strike adds a flat +90% chance to spin-to-win instead of multiplying the weapon's crit chance, which is why he talked about "forcing" crits with the kesheg
Hey @Brozime and ppl. I am wondering what is best for my situation: i have both the atterax and guandao but no maiming strike/body count but i do have blood rush and relentless combination. What weapon and setup should i use while using this farm method to effectively one shot the enemies? Also is there another weapon that I could use?
Not how damage resistance works. Grineer are armored so you should be using either Corrosive or Radiation. Thank you for the reminder on me needing to do a video on just that though as the game explains it not at all.
Brozime but even in the armored damage formula, you still use the health modifier. Viral has a health modifier vs Grineer's Cloned Flesh of +75%, whereas Corrosive only has an advantage against Ferrite armor and Radiation only has an advantage vs Alloy armor. It isn't like shields where you only use the shield modifier, then get down to health and only use the health modifier. With armor, you use both modifiers concurrently, along with armor's damage reduction. Corrosive is only really good for stripping armor, which you aren't doing.
Equations used: i.imgur.com/AtuxPpt.png Sorry that I wasn't clear with my first comment; I don't think people should generally use Viral vs armored enemies unless they're low-level and you're not going to be inflicting status, or if you have a prepared squad with 4x CP. For high-level (80+?) enemies and armor stripping, definitely Corrosive (or Radiation vs bosses that are status-immune).
"This is a pretty basic build" *Shows Maiming Strike*
Ratentaisou everytime
You don't need maiming strike. The only enemies that don't die in one hit(slide attack) in this mission are bombards. You just have to be careful and use finishers on them.
What should I replace Maiming strike for the most optimal damage?
Cryptiix I would say add in an element if you don’t have maiming
Cryptiix if you plan to keep your melee counter going than true steel
I cry every time I see a maiming strike build.
you and me too buddy
Feels bad, I got it when the acolytes came back
I can sell you i have 5 maiming
would you be so kind to "spare" me one for 100p...
KizaKun 100p is too low man
A tip for enemies who are alerted, you can kill them with your operator beam, the operator and warframe have separate stealth multiplier
Erlangga Anantha ty
If this still works thank you for the tip
Or whatever amp you have since there not all beams
Just remember that he has an affinity booster so your numbers may be lower.
Your numbers will warry from 25 to 50-60 actually.
So this is a scam than?
No it's not a scam...
You can get affinity boosters very easily.
It's normal to be running with one 100% of the time if you know what you're doing.
And of course I don't mean just buying it with real money.
Not easily and it's not normal.
The only way to get booster is eitehr with prime access then yes for those people it's pretty standard. Everyone else have to spend up to 200p for one.
And don't say from Baro becuase theyr'e even more expensive.
But he just probably forgot to mention the booster that's all.
Julio Dumenigo And if your numbers are the same and you don't have an xp boost, you know something we don't.
If you have to go through all this effort then the focus system needs another rework. There should be daily missions that reward 5-10k focus so that new players can actually get some early on.
By the time the get the focus tree, they'll be able to do this anyways...
Yup this method is obtuse and ridiculous that it's a necessity to get it done fast. My video reviewing the actual Focus rework will be going into that in depth
10-20k is trivial to get just from a defense mission
you never have to go through this. this is a choice to get a lot of focus fast. if you want to max your focus every day this is the quickest way to do it. you could also just play alot in normal missions or not cap every day. casual players are not min-max-ers.
dude u obviously are not casual if u beat the story missions which tke a whille to get to
1. You don't mention if you had Affinity booster.
2. Naramon extra Affinity for melee kills would probably be awesome for runs like this specially if you have an Energize set.
yse he does, and yes you are correct
most ppl that have boosted for long time, forgets that they are there.
Can agree with #2. Gives me 15-25k extra focus per run. Saves me roughly a whole run a day in total.
tested this with naramon just now. the bonus affinity only applies to the melee weapon, not the half that goes into your frame. energy is still plenty manageable without zenurik though, so hey any bonus affinity is good affinity
you can literally see that he has a booster in the top right corner of the screen
Nyquilnox. *slams like button until it explodes*
Heh
noticed that too lol
Here I was thinking 500 focus from one orb was doing well haha
same
I thought 1000 was good and I was wrong too
I get 1.1k per orb on hydron with a rubico and umbra equipped so I can get a pretty good amount in 10 waves
For anyone wondering: yes the orthos prime is just as good.
Also to do this same farm but on steroids, eximus stronghold sorties are good juice
Void eximus stronghold survival, mmmmmm
Disciple Of Tzeentch no no not survival. In a survival the enemies are permanently alerted
If you manage to get eximus stronghold on a Grineer Intercept on the Ship tileset (hydron defense basically) You'll be swimming in focus.
PoisoningShadow671 that also works
I tried Orthos P a while ago, and it just broke combos over and over despite everything sleeping and being 1-shot. I figured it was because the range was too much and I was hitting walls which alerts things. even while they're sleeping.
Was that patched?
Wanted to say thank you for quality guides like this, and the effort you put in to make them as accurate as possible, talking about the strengths and, as importantly, weaknesses of frames/weapons in a realistic way.
You are the dedicated, thorough tester we (players interested in "inside baseball" as you put it in your tigris prime WWYU) need, and your content is invaluably helpful to us. Thank you so much.
Dude this method is amazing.
Stumbled a bit on the first 2 runs, but on third run I already get 40k focus with normal lenses.
Will definitely abuse this tomorrow, when my eidolon lens finishes building and that sweet affinity booster from Baro will make its way in my pocket.
Been using this for a while now. Sadly even with this method, and the daily cap? It's still gonna take 400+ days of constant daily capping of the focus to max things. Just ridiculous...
Not to mention if you dont have boosts it becomes a ludicrous chore.
400? I thought it was like 10 million focus needed to max everything. 250k per day would only be 40
Sean agreed. Way easier before this new system...
when you account the ammount of capacity you need to be able to equip all passives in every school (you still need 7-15 capacity to equip each of the unbound passives in every focus school) it adds up to 400+ due to the capacity focus costs not having a cost cap(eventually increasing maximum way capacity costs hundreds of thousands or even millions per point.)
Sean you can now trade in radiant eidolon shards for 25k focus each and it doesn't count towards your daily cap. You need 40 for a million focus so it's not as bad anymore.
Considering the amount of times you'll be spamming sleep on the enemies, I would recommend Natural Talent on your build
I made a Guandao build without Maiming Strike that can one-shot every Grineer unit (tested on Heavy Gunners and Hyekka Masters) up to level 48. The mission is 32-36 so it works really well. What you wanna do is build the Guandao for pure damage, so no crit or combo mods.
I used the following mods: Shimmering Blight stance, Primed Pressure Point, Primed Reach, Fury, Spoiled Strike, Fever Strike, Shocking Touch, Virulent Scourge and Voltaic Strike.
I use Fury instead of Berserker because we don't crit as often, although Berserker still works well so YMMV.
what can i use instead of Virulent Scourge and Voltaic Strike
QUaZZeR the 90% damage mods for electricity & toxin
pretty basic build... uses the best mods in the game lol
**Veterans**
I'm so used to using Ivara on this that I totally forget about Equinox. I got to try this out!
Wouldn't Naramon be better for this since the passive it has grants +40% xp on melee kills?
SekruTheGreat sure if you dont mind busting out some energy pads it would be great
SekruTheGreat that is true, but unless you want to use a lot of energy restores, arcane energize, or wait for energy siphon to refill, Zenurik is much better. In my case, I don't have Zenurik dash so I'll resort to using energy pads and naramon.
Except there is a focus cap so it doesn't matter , you would probably reach it in one less run with naramon that like 6 mins save whoop de doo but you are going to spend a lot more doing so .
Free energy from zenurik is much better
What is your build? i suppose primed flow would be required
JVJD, it might be 6 mins saved, but in truth, it may end up as 12 or more if you dont have an affinity booster on.
also, energy pad are so cheap to make, using them as an excuse, makes almost no sense. they are so cheap, you will probably pay for more than a pack each time you complete the mission, making it, a non issue.
finally, you might even not really need that much extra energy either, since you will be getting energy spheres from downed enemies, from time to time.
Just to better clarify for those who havnt observed focus for too long. With a good res quake banshee, buff rhino and sometimes buff equinox on your team with no affinity booster. youll clear Hydron 20 waves in 20 minutes and the best your gonna get is 40k focus again with no booster. I just ran this method of this video a few times now and i can already tell you that in 5 minutes each with no booster solo you can earn 35 - 40k focus PER RUN! obviously a booster will help but god damn does this beat Hydron any other day in speed for the same amount of reward.
With that in mind at best with 40k youll have to run this mission about 7 times which at fastest 5 mins would be 35 mins total and at worst lets say 30k would be 9 runs in 5 mins will total to be 45. in less than an hour youll cap out in focus daily and I thank Brozime for showing us this because ive known about adaro and used ivara for solo weap farming but couldnt see the focus farming aspect of it until today.
An hours worth of farming is a drop in the bucket compared to Hydron set up or Bere.
Is it possible to use crit guns with silence mods, doing headshot streak to do this kind of focus farming ?. Because i can't do slide attack flawless.
Yup totally doable but try to pick a weapon like the Arca Plasmor that dissolves bodies
I personally enjoy using a ferrox for that purpose.
Brozime ist there even a silencer mod for shotguns?
MαյυsZ there is one called Silent Battery
Rio Cahyadi oh okey, thank u :)
I don't get it, to get melee bonus affinity you need to activate naramon school, yet he using zenurik for void energy blast for energy and still gets additional focus from melee. Wouldn't it be more accurate to activate naramon and insert lens with desired focus to farm focus for THAT school? P.s. no unbinded skills
The 45% melee xp node from the namaron school boosts your focus gain per mission so much that you save 1 whole run in average per day. You lose the energy regen but if you don't channel your melee attacks you don't need it. I personally don't have problems with enemies finding bodies because I don't let my sleep timer run out.
And a non Maiming Strike build feeels a lot more fluent and fast. You needed ages to kill single targets while killing groups took the same time. The only benefit Maiming Strike gives is that you can one hit Bombards sooner. Without Maiming Strike you need a combo counter of x2 (with Orthos Prime) to do that which is achievable very quickly. Use the freed up mod slots either for cold (+25% against Bombards) or radiation (+75% against bombards but no bonus against ferrit armor). I tried both builds. With and without Maiming Strike and my results were the same while it felt a lot more quicker and comfortable using only quick melee attacks instead of slow slide attacks.
He has an affinity booster active, if you don't have one, your numbers will be lower than what he mentioned.
Plus Eidolon lens
Welp time to finally farm equinox..
Agreed
Don't. The grind will break you.
well it only took me a couple hours that wasnt bad
I got her in about 10 runs when I farmed her. Gotta say, that's extremely lucky when you have to get 8 parts.
Lol i remember when i farmed equinox the first time it took a couple tries but i got all the parts. I ended up selling her at some point though. I started to farm her again 4 momths ago now and im still missing 2 pieaces. GG
6:00 OK, so when I used to do this with Ivara I noticed something. I can put alerted enemies to sleep and then stealth kill them without losing the stealth affinity multiplier. I don't know if it's something unique to Ivara's sleep arrow and/or prowl (it's been a while since I bothered with focus) but it was very consistent.
The animation's a pain but heck it's better than losing a 500% multiplier.
Side note, thank you for confirming that energizing dash works on the person who cast it, I had been wondering about that.
Another tip: If you equip the Naramon school with Affinity spike you have +45% affinity/focus for your meele weapon even if it is equipped with lenses from another school. (although you will need energy pizzas)
I was farming focus with this build and small lenses for last 2 weeks and yesterday i used my new Eidolon zenurik lens. Small naramon lens on Equinox, Eidolon zenurik lens on Guandao, naramon primary for +35% bonus affinity from melee and affinity booster with a pretty good run where I didn't mess my 5x stealth counter yielded me 99k for zenurik and 40k for naramon. With 2 Eidolons and booster you can pretty much get 150-200k in one exterminate.
I also don't think zenurik primary is needed. One medium energy restore in the beggining is enough.
its rediculous the amount of focus you need to max a tree not to talck about some skills scale poorly and still not worth the grinds bu i kinda liked this new focus rework but i think it was poorly executed maybe in the future focus 3.0 with and higher daily cap and a proper scaling oh by the way loved your colour scheme looks dope man
focus 3.0 lel
All of this was just garbled nonsense.
Imo, it should take a large amount of time to max a skill tree, not a couple hours and you have everything, and some of the unlocks are reaaaaaaaally good, alike energizing dash, and sure, maybe it isnt as good as energy overload or whatever, but that was waaaaaay too good to have, as it allowed you to run super energy inefficient build, and pump everything into power strength, and have almost no drawbacks.
SwankyPants But now we can run even less efficient builds with no penalty before the charge-up. On demand energy with more than before.
SwankyPants not in hours dude but also not in half a year just for a skill tree man
I think its also important to note that this is very efficient if you're playing solo. Hydron banshee requires assembling a team to get the most out of it (especially when mob spawn/density scales with number of players....), so this farming technique is a huge advantage if you like to play solo!
Dude thank you so much for explaining that so well. Super simple. Going to make a build for it tonight.
WOW great video. Btw whats the armor on your shoulders you were wearing?..it look like it was colored yellow/gold?
Wait, so why the focus on Range as opposed to Duration? One of those corrupted mods puts a malus on Duration, and it seems like it's in your best interest to have them asleep as long as possible.
Also, is Calm and Frenzy really much use when it does the spreading upon killing a foe, at which point the spread range is short enough that you'll usually trigger someone else before they actually sleep.
Good thing I got a riven for the Guandao with range lol. But the only thing is I have terrible time actually getting anything over 5k focus, it's pretty annoying.
I think this kind of thing needs its own series.
The focus grind put a real downer on this update for me. The millions and millions of points is just absurd for anyone who doesn't exclusively play warframe, or like me has a wife and kid that need attention. So much grinding I cant play for the fun I gotta play to accomplish a specific grind...not fun
and the funny thing is DE said they don't want to make it into grinding
Well you can just kill one teralyst to get a shard that awards you with 25,000 focus.
Power Ful 25k? are you fucking me? 25k is nothing when you need millions, and i don't do PoE content cause i don't like it
@@SapiaNt0mata that's your fault.
@@SapiaNt0mata doing the tridolon now gives 220k for run
Much better
What is your opinion on using the Kamacuras Reaper for this (the Zaw-Scythe you showed)?
Nice vid, could I trouble you for a vid with Ivara? I don't know if I want to level up Equinox, also are there any good alternatives to the primed mods you have?
broz, can you do this without an affinity booster?
'coz i only get like 25-30k, and thats not even half of what you get..
If you don't have maiming strike you can go to Saturn exterminate. Every enemy there will die in one hit.
You honestly don't need memeing strike. Just make sure you do finishers on the mobs you can't 1hko and you'll be okay. Granted that's a bit more tedious and riskier so it's up to you.
Ehh it's not necessary, just stack damage on your weapon of choice and it'll work. I don't have maiming strike and I tested out different combinations today to find the best one and I found this one the best:
2 forma Orthos Prime:
P. Pressure Point, P. Reach, Spoiled Strike, Focus Energy + Molten Impact + Shocking Touch (Radiation and -channeling cost), Fever Strike + North Wind (Viral), Shimmering Bright
Keeping melee channeling on at all times to leave no bodies behind and do more damage (And it doesn't cost as much to do it with this build)
This oaths build oneshots everything with a slide attack (Including Bombards/Napalms/Heavy Gunners) and weaker units with a normal attack because of Radiation being strong against the Alloy Armor Bombards and Napalms as well as most of the enemies you encounter have and Viral being strong against all Grineer.
the saturn exterminate is bad , i found in there nox and a lot of traps
Do you know if this works the same with the guandao instead of orthos p?
It's the same, if anything Guandao does more dmg but it doesn't matter since its just overkill
"60K is a minimum" dude I get 3K max
same
idk why
Are you using an eliodon lens? also keep sure you have the stealth bonus at max all the time.
same
I think this build is using eidolon lenses and an affinity booster. Without an affinity booster and only using greater lenses, I only get like 12k to 13k per run.
I lose the stealth bonus 2-3 times per run because of strong enemies that don't die in one slide attack with Orthos Prime, and get around 35-40k per run. I have normal Lens on Equinox and Greater Lens on Orthos Prime without booster.
eating popcorn and watching youtube videos. Literally what I'm doing RN.
This doesn't work when I try it. The transference orb keeps spawn in impossible to reach places. I've had it spawn 600m away that disappeared before I could get to it. I had one spawn at the bottom of a pit where even if I jump in to get it the game just respawns me before I reach it.
I actually hadn't thought of channeling for that.
5 of my 6 equinox's have different lenses for this (and mostly for recognizing them faster). Hurass kubrows are helpful. You might want the enemy radar aura too.
I hope to be able to farm maiming strike (and nano applicator) next time I can.
Gotdammmmm Brozime!! That Equinox Armor is fucking EPIC!!!!
I tried to setup something to auto hit 2 and it fucks up all my other movement, my guy will roll when i press shift, he won't slide attack he will interrupt his own slide attack to do a finisher, etc... I have tried all different intervals and nothing works.
What lens do you have equipped though? Greater Lens? Eidolon Lens?
Hmm I am aware of this method and understand why and how it works but just a bit of a theory I thought of while watching this wouldn't Vauban's Bastille with maximum range be capable of the same thing since it freezes enemy awareness states?
Can’t recall if you mentioned this, but are these Eidolon Lens or Greater lens?
Weavile _ Greater.
What cheat code did you use to group the enemies up so nicely?
.
I'm consistently getting 20-30k focus per run with 2 greater lenses and no affinity booster. ~5-10k affinity per orb if nothing fucks up. ~10-20mins per run.
Always that 1 explosive barrel or stray grineer to fuck up my entire run. Or they're spread out nicely among many platforms.
Ugh. Any tips greatly appreciated. Equinox with Orthos P.
So I got a question. I tried the exact same thing that you did. Orthos prime with a greater lens, and then sleep equinox with a greater lens for another focus tree. In total after a run, I end up with between 12,000 and 26,000 focus. 12 if I get seen a couple of times, and 30k on a really good run where I'm not seen at all. What am I doing wrong?
What's your opinion on using Naramon for this farm, since it increases melee affinity gain? Is the energy from zenurik just too necessary?
Nightysin I use Naramon for that affinity booster and use energy pizza. One large energy pizza at the beginning is all I need per run.
Ok. So essentially even after 400h on this game i probably need like 100 more to even have all the things required to attempt this kind of run. All of this to farm a "resource" that i unlocked probably...200h ago? This shows how pathetic Focus is atm.
Fast and concise, smart and chill guy...ok subbed
Thanks for the video man! Can you explain how to setup the Sleep spam?
The enemies get alerted so easily now. I'm SPAMing the shit out of 2 and they still spot me.
Yeah im having a bad time, this is so sad
You can also speed this up even further by using a maxed out Naramon Focus instead of Zenurik for the extra affinity on melee kills.
Hey, its 2019, just got back after 2 years of break, does this method still work?
it's still works, just had to use better lens, affinity boost, and now can use equinox prime :^)
Even with these builds I still find myself in rooms with 20+ enemies close together, but on different ground levels which is kind of annoying. Once I've put them to sleep I've either missed one or different enemy walks into the room and alerts more aggros and it ruins everything. Farming Focus in WF is a HUGE pain in ass.
Same here, i just started doing that and fuuuck its so frustrating
AWESOME VIDEO !!!
Would like to sport your glyph if you have a way to get them for the public
You also have to take into account the type of lens he is using.
Using the Atterax and the same build I find that maiming strike is meh. When I swapped out buzz kill for it I realized i’d knock enemies to the ground (thinking they’re dead) but then only dealing half of their health pool in damage.. i was getting 17k focus with maiming strike and 66-76k with buzz kill???
I’ll use greater eidolon lenses. Also I will try ESO with Saryn which looks a lot easier.. Kinda
Could you provide a link to the Ivara build you use? Still too lazy to farm Equinox.
I also bring my smeeta kitty around for these. Juicy 120 sec of double affinity is pretty noticable. Usually cap out in 2 runs, sometimes 3. (with aff booster)
I think the *Skiajati* might be safe albeit slower, mainly because it’s passive turns you invisible upon getting a Finisher.
i rlly needed this guide....im an idiot and dont have friends on warframe to organise groups with.now just gotta find a weapon i can do this with (Lesion works good enough?)oh yeah...and fine meself some new Greater lenses...already wasted em on my Nyx and Nidus. (smaller lenses work???)I at least had a Ivara and Equinox tough so thats good (Ivara may be slower but wouldn't she be more consistent? with prowl and sleep arrows?
i dont have equinox but i plan on getting him/her just for focus farming so my question is when equi put enemies to sleep does the timer on the sleep resets when you cast the ability again?
High expectations for half-gold Equinox Prime. That fasionframe looks sooooo good bro.
I just ran this and it took me a while to get used to it so I only kept my stealth kill boost for about the last 75 enemies. I grabbed the convergence orbs as well but I only ended up getting 6k focus on my atterax. What?
I realize this vid is old but thought I'd post this in hopes of getting help and to help anyone else that comes across this:
What autokey program is brozime using? If not brozime then what autokey program are others using? I've tried several now and none have worked as well as the one he's using in the vid. The best one I found so far has me ducking/sliding a lot after doing it only once :/ inevitably I fall down a hole or can't spin to win a group of enemies, they wake up and there goes my efficiency...
Now the question is... could a telos boltace work?
You are the most helpful warframe youtuber
what video settings do you have. it looks so smooth and good
I use Orthos Prime and it work well. Only bombard can sometimes survive the hit. I use naramon for an extra 45% melee affinity and use energy pod when im out of energy. 545% bonus in total
A zaw with the energy regen on channeled strike on kill arcanes would be incredible for this.
Can this be done in 2019 and with Baruuk?
For guanduo would body count work better since u don't need status procs as much?
Just realized how much farming this is... I just finished maxing out my Madurai - including the 2 way bound which are 1 million each... at this point with all nodes to increase it I need 90k to 100k just to increase my node. If for example I have a waybound from zenurik with 16 points, I need 16 points in my Madurai which is like 100k a point at this time, they have 2 each tree... do we know if there's a cap on how many waybound an operator can equip?
Much more worth it to do Elite Sanctuary Onslaught now (this was before that was released) with Volt or Saryn because of all the radiant relic drops. I eventually amassed more radiant relics than intact ones. Crazy
At 5:35, how you do that.???
Hi. I give u a tip. Do defence on hydron wth sayren. I make 80k fokus every 10 waves and it takes me like 5minutes. And its chilled as hell. What u does there is an cool idea but it takes to long and its kinda stressy to keep run arround and put all in sleep. On my way u can drink coffe and eat in same time while u make 80k focus in 5 mins.
And also i think for ur method Ivara would be better cause u can pile all the enemys to 1 spot wth her arrow and put the all togheter to sleep plus u never get spotted at all.
wait. can i use loki too?
i like this method got a eqanox a while back and its nice to use it again
thanks mate
im actually interested to know which is that third not so good for this warframe
im rn running random builds thru my head, like ash with fatal tel, duration build and that arcane, but the bodies... or excal
Which is better, the Atterax or the Gaundo for focus farming?
What I don't get is if enemies do evaporate when you put them asleep and Channel your melee on them like you showed then how come I've tried it a lot and yet they don't evaporate at all no many how many times I do it the same way you did????
you actually don't need to get them all, those you miss will just run to extraction point. This potentially could attempted to abuse, but when i tried it there came up some issues.
when it comes to equinox only issue i have with her is that your sleep has to have a target and i find that ALOT of the time it wont let me cast it and i end up getting seen by someone befor ei can sleep them. I use a max range build but it doesn't always sleep an entire room effectively. but i heard they nerfed ivara for these runs...
What's that equinox skin and why the night form is white and what's that head skin ??
How do you make the button get suppressed every .2 seconds?
What grade of Focus Lens are you using? I may have missed you mention it.
He used greater lens and affinity booster. Without those you will get half of what he got in the video
i have that same build for the atterax,except no primed p point,and all enemies survive if i dont have a counter.bombaards and heavy gunner survive even with a counter.i planned on using it to level up naramon and the guandao for zenurik
any tips?
How does it spawn for you multiple times, for me it spawns only once the yellow thing for focus
wouldnt this be more efficient to do with a baza with a lens on it rather than a melee weapon?
So quick question I wanted to ask.
Has anyone done this as a group? I mena like getting a group of sleepy time equinoxes together and just slashing through? I ask because it seems like a good idea on paper but I am not sure how well it would work in the long run.
umm I'm using your atterax build to a tee, yet I can't even one-shot level 20s with it how I'm I supposed to run this mission if I can't even kill level 20s with slide attacks? I slide attack with maiming strike and don't even get a normal criticism from doing so just a bunch of white 22s and 25s for damage numbers so whats up?
what sigil do you have on the front of your equainox?
can i please get some help figuring out how to use the autohotkey? like whats the code you use?
Could the Maiming strike be replaced with a maxed sacrificial steel? So you would get +90% critical chance on all attacks instead of just sliding attacks. It would need another forma though.
kind of necroing this but meme strike adds a flat +90% chance to spin-to-win instead of multiplying the weapon's crit chance, which is why he talked about "forcing" crits with the kesheg
Hey @Brozime and ppl. I am wondering what is best for my situation: i have both the atterax and guandao but no maiming strike/body count but i do have blood rush and relentless combination. What weapon and setup should i use while using this farm method to effectively one shot the enemies? Also is there another weapon that I could use?
Shayar Muneer anything with a lot of range so since u don't have memeing strike, use guando or orthos p or something like that
Warframe allows the use of makros? Most online games dont. I assume makros that only handle a single button are allowed?
Since you aren't inflicting status procs, shouldn't you be using Viral instead? That way, you get bonus damage versus any Cloned Flesh.
Not how damage resistance works. Grineer are armored so you should be using either Corrosive or Radiation. Thank you for the reminder on me needing to do a video on just that though as the game explains it not at all.
Brozime but even in the armored damage formula, you still use the health modifier. Viral has a health modifier vs Grineer's Cloned Flesh of +75%, whereas Corrosive only has an advantage against Ferrite armor and Radiation only has an advantage vs Alloy armor. It isn't like shields where you only use the shield modifier, then get down to health and only use the health modifier. With armor, you use both modifiers concurrently, along with armor's damage reduction. Corrosive is only really good for stripping armor, which you aren't doing.
I'll do a video explaining it. That formula is not doing what you think it is.
Equations used: i.imgur.com/AtuxPpt.png
Sorry that I wasn't clear with my first comment; I don't think people should generally use Viral vs armored enemies unless they're low-level and you're not going to be inflicting status, or if you have a prepared squad with 4x CP.
For high-level (80+?) enemies and armor stripping, definitely Corrosive (or Radiation vs bosses that are status-immune).
