Vent Opinion: Getting the right Tenet Weapon is BS

[Varlus]

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ waste of time.

[Vexillarius]

There are very few of them and each one is eliminated from the pool after you turn it down. Its very very very easy to get the one you want and a run to get a sister to spawn takes about 4 minutes at most.

Here's few tips back in my farming day.
- Start mission at Pluto, Hydra
- Enter Granum Void, get enough kills for rank 1, I suppose it's 75 kills, I'm just swing my kuva grattler around and summon an on-call crew to assist me.
- Sister candidate should spawn.
- If the tenet weapon appeared is not the right one, DON'T ABORT THE MISSION. Head to extraction. The game will "eliminate" the weapon from the list when you do the next run. Until you "accept" the weapon the list will reset.
- Don't forget to complete the main objective.
- It's grindy but it's not pure RNG. About 5 minutes per run at most?

Note: "melee" tenet weapon seems to be not in the list, you will need to buy it from Glast's shop.

If it's a waste of time, then why complain about it?

really? 'im addicted to the Sisters and Lich farming.

So far:
Tenet Diplos @ 52.8% toxin (current target is a sister with another one so i can max it to 60%)
Tenet Plinx @ 54.4% Toxin
Tenet Envoy @ 42.8% Toxin
Tenet Arca Plasmor @ 36.5% Toxin ( ive gotten 5-25% arcas so far.. they dont like to drop high % for me on those)

And up for contract is a Tenet diplos @ 50% Toxin.

I got a ton more for the lichs.

I usually run Ivara Prime on Ishtar - Venus. lvl 6-8 mobs so really zero worry of any hindrance. Pop the tier 3 granum crown and xoris away! taks about 45-90 seconds to clear 25-75 mobs easy peasy. Total time per mission about 4 minutes.

To hunt and capture, Phenmor built for high slash.

I keep forgetting to do sorties because hunting these things is easy.

the Hunt itself is great. But having to play this stupid minigame with the Xoris sucks. Especially if you have bad luck and dont get the correct tileset for the golden hand to spawn. Took me about 50 attempts to get a Tenet Arca Plasmor, only for it having 25%.

50? thats impossible if you aim for only plasmor there are only 9 tenet weapons so 9 runs is the max with the pity system

Its not impossible. yes, you should get the correct weapon after 8 attempts. But to do 8 attempts, you have to actually first be able to play the Granum Void mission. And like I said, its not guaranteed that the golden hand spawns. Yes 50 was a bit exaggerated. According to my player log, at was 34.

AFAIK, the golden hands almost always spawn. Very hard to miss.

Not impossible. This hothead aborts the mission instead of completing it.

Varius. My friend.

YOU NEED TO COMPLETE THE MISSION FOR THE WEAPON YOU DON`T WANT TO BE ELIMINATED FROM THE DROP TABLE.

Also the golden hand spawns in multiple places on the ship. And there are at least 3-4 every mission. Please tell me you do not abort the mission if there is no statue at spawn.

[cool0400]

There is a minimum of about 3 golden hands on the corpus ship tilesets, sometimes they just spawn in different areas. Also you only need to get to 25 in the void for a sister (+25 per tenno in the squad)

I advice to just use Mesa for this. Way easier, less stressful and I almost always managed to get 75 kills, when you only need 25 to spawn sister.

She needs to be modded fairly well tho.

The Xoris takes a few round to get the hang of, but it makes sure i can use ANY frame to get the Proginater bonus I want. With mesa, you are stuck to her specific Proginator status.... and Mesa aint toxin.


also... USE ISHTAR ON VENUS... Lvl 6-8 mobs.. and 80% of the time, the golden hand is right at the start. SOMETIMES it will be later in the level.

ISHTAR ON VENUS FOR SISTER SPAWNING. Its a sabotage mission that had zero defense needed. can be completed in less than 5 min.

It used to be worse than whatever you're whining about right now.

facts

[Mhblis]

Well thabks to the people in the thread for the info.

I was Protea farming on Pluto and the capture mission would be my recommendation.

With even a half modded Xoris it was easy to get them to spawn.

I dont like Sisters or Lich system but it seems much easier now.
