FORMA... we love them we hate them (discuss)

[John Josep Jingleheimer Schmidt]

its annoying when you check your inventory to find that you have 72 forma blueprints waiting to be build.

but that's not the problem.
today i wanted to forma some old warframes that i find useless the way they are moded right now so i wanted to restore them so i could use them in high end-game missions.
the problem is... i want to mod this valkyr prime. 3 formas.
my aklex prime. 7 formas
prisma dual cleavers. 3 formas.
zarr.... 4-5 formas i'm not sure about it.
lets not talk about my poor wyrm prime fella

SO, every forma blueprint cost:
1 morphics
1 neuronal sensor
1 neurode
1 orokin cell
35k credits
and 24 hours of my life.

that sayd it would cost me arount 17-18 days to build my warframe the way i need it to work as i find it more usefull.
high end missions, lvl 170+ enemies.
not to mention that LEVELING UP every equipement piece requires... horrorific amount of time.
plus to mention...
i could fully build forma for the cost of 20 platinum.
devs added the option to buy a pack of 3 formas for the price of 35 platinum.

sorties reward you with 1 forma... i dont know guys but this looks like a facebook game and i dont like it.



my solution would be:
sorties giving 3 formas package.
forma build time reduced.


multitask workbench. (maybe a platinum upgrade if you dont like the idea)
because... i can build 15 different weapons at the same time. 20 warframes at the same time. but i cant build 2 formas at the same time? you kidding me!?

Seriously? nobody has mentioned the fact that you can do the moon music puzzle and farm build formas there?

The moon music "farm" is the biggest scam Noobshowtek ever posted on youtube. First of all, the music room has a 20% chance of appearing. Second of all, Sentients will come to ♥♥♥♥ you in the ass every single mission and it takes time to kill them. Thirdly, the chances of you getting a fully built forma is so ridiculously low that, combined with the already low chances of getting the music room to spawn, makes it almost as rare as getting the Imperator Vandal receiver from the Formorian event.

-Sentients take 30 seconds, they are very easy
-20% is one in five, I don't know why, but I get forma from it very frequently, idk, do you have a link to the forma drop chance?

Lua Exterminate = speedrun.

If Sentients provide an issue for you, then you should probably drop your unmodded mk-1 Braton for something that actually does damage as well as using your Operator Void Beam to reset the immunities the Sentient gets.

Perfect solution for making Forma even more dime-a-dozen than they already are? Yes.

Why don't we just give out a built Forma with every Void Fissure mission too?

why stop there? why not be able to buy forma for 5 credits a dozen?

Although I do think they should remove or do something about forma in the silver relic drop area

Make Forma BPs be common drop only.
Put actual Prime Parts in the places wehre a Forma BP was in an Uncommon drop.

Boom.

Definite "frequently", because according to Noob, getting a forma every 4 hours of constant try is "frequently". Also, do you have a drop chance booster? Also, I literaly farmed the music room 3 days, non stop, only thing I did besides that was sorties and if I got 2 formas it was a lot.

As in when I need a forma I just do a run or two and get one, maybe rngsus has been kind to me?

The speedrun dies if you need to take a minute to kill two guys who can one shot you. Can you at least read? I never said they are hard.

Just shoot them, void beam and shoot them again, they really are not hard

Probably too kind. Also, when did this happen? After this update?

I have been doing it for a bit now, I have not tried since the most recent update

Limbo, Mesa, Valkyr, Ivara, Excalibur, and Mag are all viale options for cheesing a Sentient.

The only times I have taken over a minute to kill both Sentients are because I was an idiot and had underleveled gear or frame while on Lua or because I intentionally took longer for whatever reason.
Like I said, if Sentients provide a problem, then you should drop your Mk-1 Braton and get a gun that deals damage, reset the immunities via Operator Void Beam, rinse and repeat until dead.

You are not very smart are you?

I dunno, I guess not.
I flatten Sentients on command, so I must be quite the idiot.

Speaking of which, I need to check my Vulkar Wraith build against Sentients soon. See if it chews through them like it chews through lvl105 Techies.

[MystMan]

Who cares about the sentients. It doesn't remove the fact that farming forma from that room is a waste of time unless you're a secret illegitimate lovechild of RNGesus.

woooooooooaaaa you are such an MLG level of god in this game, good job!!
Ok, since you are basically a Forrest Gump, I'll explain very slowly. The sentients slow down the progress of the speed run, they are basically a minor annoyance and if you decide to ignore them, sometimes, they one-shot you. If I want to look for a single room, I don't want to spend any time fighting sentients, who do take about 1 minute to kill.

Then don't kill them.
Better yet, don't set off the Occulyst that summons them.
Go Stealthframe and completely avoid that entire issue.

Or completely ignore them until you find the room in question, at which point you can either deal with them or continue to ignore them (because maybe they won't be assed to chase you across the entire map if you don't set them off to begin with).

Where was the issue with Sentients again?

You are really not smart. If I am speedrunning through a place I cant just go stealth frame lol.

Then hit your stealth button when you have to waltz past an Occulyst.

Right? I just mentioned that as one annoyace of going through that level and the MLG dude up there decided to show off how cool he is by saying how he kills sentients in one hit.

Idea: Why not make the moon as a whole more viable by adding formas to the sentients drop table, it could be 50%, and it would make sense lore-wise, becuase forma changes form, and that is just what sentients do

I never said I could kill them in "one hit".
The way you worded your original Sentient-related post implied that you had troubles killing them.
Not until now did you even specify that your problem with them was the fact that killing them takes time despite the fact that you can very easily avoid them.
