Why people try to rip you off with syndicate mods

[Bane cat]

I aint paying no damn 10-15p for a mod you basically sat on your azz doing nothing to get. You literally get enough daily at with high enough mr to get one a day doing nothing but wearing a silly sigil and want me to pay you more than 5p? Bruh.

OP, here's some quick and approximate math regarding syndicate rewards people can buy and then sell to others.

Relic packs cost 20k for three relics, some guaranteed rare/uncommon.
Augments are 25k unranked for a single mod.

You're saying these augments are being sold for around 10-15 which is too much.
10-15p for 25k standing.

Meanwhile, relic packs cost 5k less, which means four augments add up to an extra 20k standing over instead buying five relic packs.
Relics are RNG, of course, but their contents are often potentially worth more than 10-15p. Not to mention, the relics can be sold as well. And they're sold in threes! Potentially, the profit margin from selling the three pieces of loot out of a relic pack are much greater. And even just trying to sell the three relics, which you got at a lesser effort than the augment, you'd likely break even around the same plat as the augment.

So what's so wrong with 10-15p augments when relic packs are potentially worth the same of not greater, but for less standing?
Not to mention if you're buying augments for yourself, they'd be a one time purchase you wouldn't ever need spares of.

And now you're saying "you can get to MR24 within a month" OKAY so what's the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ problem, guy? If you're so quick to move through MRs, why not use your brain, farm up a syndicate mod a day and sell that until you have the plat to cover the augments you want from the other syndicates?

Relics= rng loot+grind.

Effort should be rewarded with higher plat.

This is the reason why people have said this time and time again trading in Warframe is flawed. The prices are all over the place and make no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sense.

Just yesterday I had people trying to get me to buy common bounty mods for 15-20p LOOOOL for a 30+% drop chance on a mob. What a joke.

Oh no mr 24 not like you cant get to mr 24 within like a month and a half of playtime oh god noooooo the pure effort that it takes to play a game and passively level up having fun. Oh the horror.

You can’t, a lot of things in this game are locked behind walls, if you played 8 hours a day and already knew how to get everything and had 30 day boosters running, you could probz get 24 in a month and a half.

Do you even know that mastery required to reach next level increases every rank?

The real world doesn’t work with time spent = cost, neither do most any video game economies, neither does warframe.

Even if Mr 24 was only a month for everyone, you’re logic is still ape brain. Before mastery rank 20, syndicate initiations and collection of mods takes days, if you’re too low maybe even weeks. The price is set because of the availability, there is a lot of syndicates and people can’t have them all, most people are buying weapons for their rewards as well. On any given day the amount of people that will be able to provide you with the mod is similar to other mods with the same price.

Corrupted mods are kinda dirt cheap now because forced nightwave vault runs, this causes hundreds of thousands of vault mods to be obtained in one week, it means a lot more people have them. Not many people choose to sell syndicate mods over weapons, or stock up on syndicate mods.


If you can’t understand these basic principles that literally make the world we live in turn, then you should probably just get back to the job site and lay those bricks.

[LegacyXI]

So what about those people who don't have a high MR? What if someone wants a augment mod and they are only MR 5? Suddenly it takes even longer for them to get one of these mods. Now it takes what 4 days for one mod? Just because you think they aren't worth it means nothing to the rest of the community. If they really weren't worth 10-15 plat then they would be selling for much less. Yet here we are seeing they sell consistently for this price.

Also it isn't possible to my knowledge to get all of the augment mods on your own unless you are willing to grind the other factions up from negative standing and start over again. So in my eyes this is a fair price for the mods.

Use your brain weeb. Hydron takes about 10-15 minutes and you can max out several things at once. You're looking at hitting a mastery rank every two hours or so as long as you have the resources to keep crafting weapons and the like which you should. I dont even run resources booster and my alt has already hit mr 20 in less than a month.

Mr 5s wont know anything about the game much less need to worry or care about augments they are sitll at babby stage and dont have like 90% of mods and need to rank em all up. Your example sucks.

Salty because I'm right. No one in their right mind should have to pay 10p for an ez to get mod. Much less double triple that for it ranked. One guy wanted to sell Ironclad charge for 40p maxed I laughed in his face and pressed ignore. Like oh wow you put in 180 endo into it and tripled the price how generous of you lmao.

Just because you don't agree and think that most new players won't know anything doesn't make it true and that you're right and the price should be lower and whatever other rubbish you said.

There are new players out there at MR5 or so and do farm for that Standing to get augments and it can help those players for earning plat to buy slots that they need and such.

The game doesn't revolve around you and what you want or what you think, you're too full of yourself and think no matter what you're right and everyone else is wrong.

Bruh are you trolling, the game only lets you rank up mastery ONCE per day, you can’t get 2 ranks in a day it’s impossible. Also leveling them is easy as hell but obtaining them takes a lot of time, getting all the bulk mastery out of PoE and Fortuna takes like a month each at best, a good portion of things aren’t available for farm and need to be purchased with farmed plat, not to mention there are a good amount of things that have hours of grind you can’t avoid, you really can’t hit mastery rank 24 in under 100 login days.

I don’t think you’ve even played the game beyond 20 hours. You are as dumb as ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ plain and simple, how your puny brain can’t just work out why things are the way they are, is beyond me. Not being able to comprehend it when a mound of people is explaining it to you, that’s the big 🧐🧐🧐.

No point talking to a monkey, when I want a brick will I’ll ring you up, gl bro.

10-15p is the standard price. What I do when I want a Augment mod is to offer to trade one of my Syndicate mods for another. You could also sell your Syndicate's Augment mods and use the plat to buy the one you want.

Idc if its standard price its stupid. They are worth more than unranked vault mods and those take actual effort to get. Just because others will pay that much for it doesnt mean I will. They are worth 5p at most.

They are worth 10p-15p because people are willing to pay 10p-15p for them.

There's not really too many people that put in the effort to gain the standing and try to sell and look for people wanting to buy them.

-It's more along the lines of people wanted an augment mod.
-Not lot of people sit on the trade channel for long periods unless they're looking for something.
-The people that do spend lots of time on the trade channel looking for someone to sell syndicate mods are going to be 1 of 3 pairs.
-People that have what you want and are online waiting for you (a buyer) aren't going to sell for hardly anything (the price includes time spent; gathering standing, looking for a buyer, and doing the trade).

I have lots of prime parts. I have lots of Paris Prime parts (over overabundance). Each different part averages 2p (I'd have to check my sheets). The amount of time I'd have to spent in order to find a buyer makes the 2p not worth it (I've one time spent 2 hours straight with Paris Prime parts, no buyer). If I'm spending time on the channel looking for buyers, I'm not going to keep track of everything thing that people could possibly want AND spend 4-5 minutes away to sell something for 2p when I'm trying to find buyers for things that are 20p.

TDLR: Buyers are scarce, sellers are scarce, and people generally don't spend hours on the trade channel. you can generally pay 10p-15p to get what you want relatively quickly OR you can spend a couple hours looking (your time) for someone to sell it for 5p.

You dont need to farm it. You get enough standing even at lower mr every 2 days by just playing the game normally. Thats you not going out of your way to farm for something. Why should I pay money for that? Vault runs, I understand that. Prime loot, I understand that. Syndicate mods? Lol no get out of here.

The fact you think MR determines skill and how much someone knows about the game is impressive. Just because someone isn't MR 25+ doesn't mean they aren't informed about this game or some kind of terrible player. All that means is they chose to either not do the MR tests or they don't use very many weapons/frames. When you think about sorties the minimum MR level to play them is only 5 while the minimum level to use things like rivens is only 8. So I would say my example works perfectly fine. Someone just seems

It kinda does though? Whats the likely hood of mr <10s having advanced knowledge of the game? Unless they researched it beforehand, a lot of Warframe is based on experience.

To some people yes farming it is something they prefer to do mostly when there new, hence syndicate missions.

Like lots of people have said and what I said in my first post, if you don't want to pay then don't and stop complaining and go get them yourself and sell them for 5p if that's what you think there worth, while everyone else continues to pay 10-15p for the augment they want and make plat for the augments they sell.
