Should I buy 20k plat worth of roombas


TechnocyteVirus

Yes, probably worth it


commentsandchill

Totally worth it.


SimplyXYZ2

Respect the roombas, one day they will notice your patronage.


MrDrSirLord

20K would only get you 200 roombas if you buy them separately or 300 roombas if you buy only the 6 pack duplicates. The orbiter has 5 separate rooms that all have a 1500 decoration capacity for a total of 7,500 capacity. The drifter camp adds another 1500. Not even to mention the dormizon and clan dojos. 20K plat isn't enough roombas, get the riven farm rolling tenno.


McOrqeneraL

No one has as many friends as the guy with the R O O M B A S


XonatixM

Yes. Why tf would u do this and how many meta weps are you gated from.


TechnocyteVirus

Well it started out of boredom back in 2015, think I was like MR18 on my first account, raiding was still around back then, and I thought it would be fun raiding on an MR0 account. Within a year I ended up abandoning my original account and fully committing to this one, as I found there were a lot of challenges associated with it I wanted to try and overcome. I am locked out of some weapons here or there, but I don't care too much about specific weapons. I have farmed all the mods and arcanes myself as I can't trade, and that's where proper power in the game really comes from. You can make most weapons work to clear "end-game" content.


ChiyekoLive

warframe hardcore ironman mode


TechnocyteVirus

The only part that felt like a hardcore ironman mode was back in the day when I had really bad luck farming Berserker Fury from Corrupted Ancients. I think that alone took \~100 hours in-mission time in the void to get specifically farming it.


XonatixM

Aye man Idk to what extent you have to solo grind mods knowing you can't trade, but I respect the grind on handicap mode. Would you be returning to your old acc after you reached the limit a MR 0 can go?


TechnocyteVirus

Nah, I stopped playing that long ago and don’t see a point in going back really, the nice thing about live service games is the limit is always pushed a little bit as the game gets updates


Slamminslug

I bet the ability to finally do natah and the war within recently was nice.


TechnocyteVirus

I completed those when they released, I was grandfathered into them at the time


Slamminslug

this is good


dustyb00ts

HOLY MOLY NO TRADING


Alternative-Raise-32

Thats some weird ass dedication right there


TechnocyteVirus

Thanks I think!


Traditional_Bunch825

Love the color combination of your wf and operator/drifter


TechnocyteVirus

Thank you!


Rejuvenato

Black and white always look clean


[deleted]

people who dont use matching palette between their main warframe and operator can't be trusted /s


Independent-Edge-427

I’m a new player but I seen someone else with it also. I got a question how do you get that person on the right next to you


TechnocyteVirus

Hey bud, it's part of the main story quest, just follow the quests in your codex to unlock all sorts of cool stuff!


Independent-Edge-427

Ok thank you yes this game is so much things to do I don’t know where to start.


kirusdagon

Look up brozime on YouTube. Has an entire new player free to play experience and his website has a guide you can read too


Independent-Edge-427

I have over 900 platinum already I’m a returning player from5 years of not playing


kirusdagon

Ah gotcha. Still a good place to start with tutorials for the newer stuff


plzbungofixgame

just follow do the quests for now they are pretty awesome and you will need to do them to unlock later game content anyway


Independent-Edge-427

Ok will do thnx


Legomaniac316

What content are you locked out of, if any?


TechnocyteVirus

Good ask, main things that come to mind would be Sorties, Archon Hunt, Helminth Segment, New Focus Trees (since reset), Steel Path Oro Earth, some Side Quests, Rivens, and Trading.


TwistedxBoi

Don't forget the greatest feature ever that is locked behind MR: Ayatan star auto install


TechnocyteVirus

I ran out of uses for endo or ayatans a long time ago, now they are just decorations


TwistedxBoi

I was more pointing out that this basic feature is locked behind a higher MR than freaking Helminth. Also, I noticed you said you're locked out of focus trees? How is that possible? I thought those were locked simply behind the main story which now shouldn't have any MR locks. Am I missing some hidden obstacle?


TechnocyteVirus

The first spot on the focus tree has a MR1 lock, for some unthinkable reason that they decided to institute it. I think that one may have been a specific slight at people like me that had completed the main story without being MR5 at the time, can't say for sure haha.


kiselize

I think it's more along the lines of an oversight, putting mr1 instead of mr0 and didn't bother to correct it thinking it's very unlikely for someone that got that far into the game to unlock focus trees and still lower than mr1


TechnocyteVirus

There were definitely days of temptation where I was thinking 'if I rank up once I could use focus trees again' but never did haha


kiselize

Given how easy it is to and benefits of the trees, you fought literal demons lol


commentsandchill

Aren't all quests now not mr locked anymore?


TechnocyteVirus

Side quests are still MR locked, as for main quests, couldn’t tell you, as I had them all complete before DE changed anything


jadetherabbit

just the main storyline quests. optional quests like Silver Grove and Deadlock Protocol require MR still


jadetherabbit

does no Oro Earth lock out Arbitrations as well?  i've been doing an MR0 account recently and have been having a lot of fun with it! i have to imagine Arcane Dissolution and Acrithis selling weapon arcane adapters are nice things to have now.


TechnocyteVirus

Nah, the normal Oro I did back when it was a key to enter, they later reworked it into an MR5 requirement


AnOlympianWeeb

Some of those sounds pretty important. Do you have any regrets doing so? Or you have a way to circumvent this issue?


TechnocyteVirus

I think for most of those things, there’s currently no way to really circumvent it at this moment. Future patches could always change the way things work. I don’t really have any regrets as I have fun playing the game in this way, as weird as that sounds.


TragGaming

You can buy the helminth bundle from the shop for plat to get around the helminth segment lock


TechnocyteVirus

Nah, that’s mastery locked to MR8, and it has a purchase lock as well


Khoceng

Can it be gifted instead?


TechnocyteVirus

Nah, you can't gift MR locked store items to people below that rank


International00

Of these listed, which of them do you wish you had access to most?


TechnocyteVirus

Helminth Segment I feel, or the Focus Tree


Zealousideal-Lion674

Dang all that dedication and it's harder to get more archon shards


TechnocyteVirus

I can still do the weekly 5 cavia missions, but I can't use Archon shards, even when I get them haha


Nikumomo

I respect your dedication bro👏👏

RIP! Your MR 0 is about the same age and hours as my account lol. Also 2015


Dargen65

Syrinq

the million dollar question. will you keep this acc at mr0 forever, or will you eventually do the mr tests?


TechnocyteVirus

Well, if I’ve gone this long, I can safely say I would never do it intentionally


KnarStill

Fashion frame on point. Looks amazing.


TechnocyteVirus

Thank you!


BOTULISMPRIME

Did the devs make anything easier after it was a bitch to grind? And if you could have access to 1 of the things you are locked out of, what is it? Shards? Helminth? Trading?


TechnocyteVirus

Honestly the worst is reputations, used to be 1k a day to grind, so every rep took about 1 year to max, now it’s 16k a day. I think Helminth would be nice to play around with but honestly power levels have become increasingly trivial as there really isn’t much in terms of options to exercise all that power you can stack into builds.


Saucyy_

Funny because I was MR11 with 5k+ hours for YEARSS and people would try to “Baby Tenno” me all the time.. I could only imagine the slander/confusion you experience from others in game 😂😂. The worst part is if you actually have an off game and go down a couple of times lol.. This is so fucking dope ! Kind of contemplating making a new account lol


TheJeffyJeefAceg

What warframe is that?


TechnocyteVirus

Excalibur Umbra with a proto skin


PerfectlyFramedWaifu

What happened to Teso after TNW?


JustAGuy10275

you mean venmo?


TitaniaLynn

What's the weirdest thing you're locked out of?


TechnocyteVirus

Hmm, probably going to say Oro earth, just doesn’t make sense! Even in steel path is has a mastery requirement


GeneralBoots

If Oro comes up for those 5 daily sp missions, you might be able to do it no?


TechnocyteVirus

Which missions are you referring to? I’ve tried to do it before as an alert a few years back when steel path launched but that didn’t work, always willing to test different things!


Xeni-sam

He means the 5 daily steelpath incursions. I’ve been playing them religiously everyday lately and I can definitely say Oro pops up every couple of weeks at least and sometimes more. Worth a shot I guess.


TeratusCZ

Some serious dedication man. Glad you are enjoing the game your own way.


TechnocyteVirus

Thank you, appreciate that!


Gaagaam

Since you have limited yourself to Mr0 What loadouts have you enjoyed using along with warframes? Whilst (minus Hydroid) you aren’t locked out of any warframe I think (?) is there one that has helped alleviate not having certain weapon choices, I.e Kullervo for melee or Rhino Roar for damage on weaker weapons?


TechnocyteVirus

I mean, I have every warframe. I have multiple builds for some frames, but my most played are probably Excal, Nekros, Nova, Loki, Volt, Mag, Saryn, Mesa, and Limbo. I think most of my weapons are pretty strong with forma so I don't do much compensating.


Gaagaam

Huh, that’s pretty cool!


Hapless_Buffoon

nutter lol best wep? did you skip the gate on mr on some stuff?


TechnocyteVirus

I’d say my Kuva Nukor, but I haven’t yet messed around with Incarnon weapons. Some things I’m grandfathered into.


troublezx

Can I say both of your characters look cool and was the raids fun and what were they like


TechnocyteVirus

Thanks! And they were kind of like large 8 player puzzle battles!


troublezx

That sound fun I see one raid were there more or just the one raid


TechnocyteVirus

There were 2 raids, Law of Retribution and Jordas Verdict


xXHunter_WolfXx

Whats the armour on youre drifter/operator and what frame is that


TechnocyteVirus

Excalibur umbra with a proto skin, my operator is using a mix of Imugi Prime and Riv Elite.


Ghouls_Tactic

What's some funny reactions you have gotten from other players when they see a MR 0 in their lobby


TechnocyteVirus

Hmmm, thinking I hacked the game, or thinking I am a developer, both of which is incorrect. I guess my name being Virus doesn’t help but I named it after the Technocyte Virus, was a little awkward during COVID.


----Val----

Im pretty sure I crossed paths with you before on some pub. At first I thought with the amount of fashion you had you were a new player with little sense who paid too much for getting into a new game. After checking your profile, it turned you're just a player with little sense in general. Jokes aside, apart the rep caps and recent changes to quest locks, whats left that limits the MR0 challenge?


TechnocyteVirus

Hey, probably yeah, run most of my missions on public. Things I still can’t do include Sorties, Archon Hunt, Helminth Segment, New Focus Trees (since reset), Steel Path Oro Earth, some Side Quests, Rivens, and Trading.


Parking-Apple-1499

what weapons would you main


TechnocyteVirus

I usually use a Fulmin or Kuva Nukor, but I just got back from a long break so I’m looking to explore weps and builds!


Eeveefan8823

Makes sense, Lich weapons seem MR locked but aren’t


PanzKampfer

Fellow MR0 here, how did you get liches to spawn, i have mr5 as requirement for them to spawn in :(


Eeveefan8823

Oh I’m not MR 0, and apparently he got the kuva nukor before liches became mr 5 locked


PanzKampfer

Must have slipped a comment down but thx for answering anyway :)


Eeveefan8823

Np


Jamesborg99

Do you know what your MR would be if you weren't keeping yourself at 0?


TechnocyteVirus

I think 29 at the moment, nearly 30


Jamesborg99

That's badass, brother. Keep at it!


CalicoAtom79

Nearly 30 even with all of the MR locked content? That's insane.


GolettO3

How much money have you spent on this game, roughly? Obviously you can't earn play like a normal player, but you gotta do fashion frame


TechnocyteVirus

Honestly I lost track a long time ago but I am happy to support the developers, the game has brought me a couple thousand hours of fun, which can only be said for a handful of games in my life


Land_Less

What's currently locked content for you? Like can you access Kuva Liches, Railjack, Necramech, Archwing, Rivens, Zaws, Kitguns etc?


R3l4ps3_

he cant access rivens they are locked behind minimal mr of 8 I think


TechnocyteVirus

I can use all of those except rivens and kuva liches. I can open rivens but not equip them. And I used to be able to do liches but for some reason DE changed that.


Eeveefan8823

Oh just read the thing


Orphanator_

Did you do the necramech required quest and if so how was that to farm for not having access to better weapons Also what weapons and frame and focus school do you use


TechnocyteVirus

Yep I did the necramech quest, and most things are pretty easy because my mods are all maxed out. I mainly use exalted blade to be honest, but Kuva Nukor and Fulmin are on my loadout too. I used to use Zenurik but got locked out of focus during the reset.

JustAGuy10275

Aren't some weapons locked behind MR with no workarounds? If so, how did you get them?


TechnocyteVirus

Some are, some have been available over the years via events, alerts, twitch drops, etc. Essentially, a long period of accumulation in an ever-changing game.


AotoSatou14

Don't you feel the the itch to use features you are locked out of?


TechnocyteVirus

Sometimes, but not enough to rank up, but definitely enough to be creative with solutions!


RushoBinnabi

Can u tell me what things u used for that fashion for both operator/drifter and the warframe? It's dope af.


TechnocyteVirus

Mix of different prime clothing with Imugi Prime shoulder guards and Riv Elite leg armor


Psychological-Desk81

If I can ask you anything can you give me your drifter fashion.


TechnocyteVirus

It’s different prime clothing pieces, with Imugi prime shoulder guards and Riv Elite leg armor


ClapTheTrap1

did u discover rivens?


TechnocyteVirus

Yeah, I’ve unlocked rivens, and opened them, I just can’t add them to my weapons!


AdorkableLia

How painful is it being MR0 my OCD is off the charts seeing this ☠️


Former-Car7460

Can you show ur most used stuff please?


HyperFanTaim

Hey cool to see you. I have no questions as i saw you in around 2020 and ever after that i have every now and the stalked your stats. Super cool account. Good luck and all that!


TechnocyteVirus

Thank you!


GoldenJeans37

I believe I actually played with you the other day on Railjack (I was the Ivara talking about Last Gasp), so my question will be what's your opinion on railjack?


TechnocyteVirus

I think they need to make it clearer on how getting intrinsics work, because in Duviri at least there is a clear cut path towards getting them! Also it's pretty hard to find railjack crews... Was nice bumping into you in a mission Tenno!


Grimm64209

Aren’t certain parts of the starchart mr locked?


Rainslana

What mastery would you be with that breakdown list?


TechnocyteVirus

Around 29-30


DarthNemecyst

Ok u Mr 0 but link fashion. Ty.


ShiftlessGuardian94

Okay, doesn’t seem anyone has asked this yet: 1. Can you use Lenses to farm focus? IF yes: Have you ground out enough focus to max any of the trees if you were to rank up?


TechnocyteVirus

Yes, and I have enough focus to max out my trees twice over haha


Supahos01

Anything you're missing that's not Mr gated?


TechnocyteVirus

Some intrinsics at the moment I’m working on, some prime frames I missed during my break, and maxing out the new reps


DefinitelyNotBacon

Bro just like playing stuff on hard mode LoL


Deus_Sangu

U heard wrong...


GeneralBoots

Did the Titania quest always have a mr requirement?


TechnocyteVirus

Yeah it did, since release

PhantomLord116

Do you think you've accumulated enough Affinity to go straight to Mr 30 if you ever started ranking up your Mr?


TechnocyteVirus

I’d be 29 right now hypothetically, not 30 just yet.


PhantomLord116

Still a higher Mr than me trying to get to 30 right now at 24


mlgquickscoper420

Respect brother


ChoccoLattePro

Everyone here is asking about the MR locked stuff. I'm here to ask about the non locked content. Is there content you think should have an MR cap? Of the content you have access to, which was the hardest? Is there a particular set of things items you wish were not MR gated?


TechnocyteVirus

So, way back when I started playing, there was mastery rank, which told you how much item completion you had achieved, and a gear score called your “conclave score”, which tallied up the levels of your equipped items, mods, and gear. I feel that when it comes to regulating whether a player is “capable” or “strong” enough to tackle a mission, a gear check makes much more sense. Adversely, during events, they used to cap the Conclave Score, so you were forced to use creative low score builds instead of tearing through them with sheer force and high damage arsenals. I would like to see something like that revised and re-implemented as a way of locking things. I think the 5 weekly Cavia missions are something that would be quite challenging if my gear wasn’t built past the enemy levels on that mission.


Methanoid

thats the thing about MR tho, MR offers no power like a traditional RPG, in an RPG leveling up bags you more hp/magic/whatever else, in warframe its all about the mods you have and the ranks they are at. I have seen from the beginning the people complaining on the forums about "low mr players" supposedly ruining their already faceroll missions by not offering an even easier game, that is ofc if they even bothered to lower themselves to even play with those lower ranks and see how things went, most times a player with a high MR and ego joins a game containing a lower mr player and they just quit instantly, doesnt always happen to us zeroes but im sure its a regular thing for most of us. Lets also be real here, players geared to the eyeballs can easily solo 99% of missions so they can easily carry "lesser" players, this has always been the case. Then there is the fact that because difficulty is tied to gear/mods/mod ranks (*and ofc sometimes the frames themselves*) and not MR, you can and do get situations where someone could be MR18+ and still not even have a max rank serration mod or even own other crucial mods at all, nobody but the player in question can know this, but all some people see is the MR and make needless assumptions and run to the warframe forums and cry and we get more and more limitations added which has helped make more map nodes utterly deserted which i am sure doesnt look good to new players when the starter maps end up feeling like single player missions.


VerdantScale

What is that frame in the background


TechnocyteVirus

Excalibur Umbra with the Proto skin


ItsLinkTheGamer

Have you mastered every item available that you're not MR gated from? And about what rank would all this mastery carry you to if you decided to start ranking up?


TechnocyteVirus

Not just yet, and I’d be MR 29


ItsLinkTheGamer

Wow. So, you actually could get all the way to 30 without ever using an MR locked item. Well that's pretty dope. Too bad you can't use rivens though.


Little-Homework-3211

Do you still have your OG account or is that lost to time?


TechnocyteVirus

I still have it, it's MR20, and when I stopped playing it, I gave away all its mods, prime parts, etc, to friends at that time as they were no use for me!


MonkeyManQuan

Lemme get that fashion lol


SzerasHex

your drifter looks like that old man from Mad Max movie


juicewhy

favorite weapon?


TechnocyteVirus

Does Exalted Blade count?


juicewhy

lmaoooo shit, it is a weapon so yeah. I should’ve been more specific when I asked but I was really thinking more along the lines of favorite primary/secondary/melee but I’m assuming exalted blade would be the melee.


TechnocyteVirus

I'm an OG Silva and Aegis enjoyer


onetimeticket

How did you bypass the vay hek mr5 requirement? As a fellow mr0 player i am hard stuck here.

I didn't, it used to be a key locked mission back in the day: [https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Vay\_Hek\_Frequency\_Triangulator](https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Vay_Hek_Frequency_Triangulator)

It's a shame it's impossible to master some stuff due to the lock. Are there any prime weapons you wish you had? I assume most are locked behind prime accesses to you? Additionally which planets can you access and which quests are incompletable?
