What are warframes that are easy to get in the early game?

I'm talking earth Venus mercury and the open world(s?)

Join a clan. The Dojo has enough Warframes/weapons/archwings/sentinels and misc stuff to keep you busy for a long time.

Yep, the easiest way to have a good start is to join a clan and build everything they have researched. By the time you've done that you will have a high enough MR to properly start trading and farming plat so you can just buy those pesky-to-get frames from the in-game market.

You can farm 200-300 plat in a matter of hours if you know what you're doing. Most difficult frames require running the same AABC rotation with ridiculous low drop chance on rotation C (Ivara, Khora, Nidus, Mesa, Harrow,Octavia, Trinity, Equinox, etc etc) until you're sick of it. Spend some time setting up a shop on warframe market, get to know what items sell for what price, what's the most lucrative farm, etc.

It's way more effective to grind plat for a few hours with guaranteed result than to raffle off Infested Salvage missions every day for weeks on end, hoping for those Nidus parts to finally drop...

Make sure you're always in the process of producing a forma in your foundry and from the moment you can afford it: run triple boosters non stop (credit, affinity and resources). Even though they cost 600 plat/month, they pay for themselves.

hi,

you can easily get the blueprints from these warframes early on, however you also need materials that may be found only further in the game :

Gara (Plains of eidolon bounties) / limiting resource : cetus wisps (PoE, Earth)

Rhino (Venus boss fight) / limiting resource : Plastids (Phobos)

Garuda (Orb vallis bounties) / limiting resource : Nanospores (Deimos)

Nyx (from infested invasion boss fight Phorid) / limiting resource : Neural Sensors (Jupiter)
Vauban (from Nightwave wares) / limiting resource : Neural Sensors (Jupiter)
Banshee (Dojo Tenno Lab) / limiting resource : Neural Sensors (Jupiter)
Nezha (Dojo Tenno Lab) / limiting resource : Neural Sensors (Jupiter)
Volt (Dojo Tenno Lab) / limiting resource : Neural Sensors (Jupiter)
Zephyr (Dojo Tenno Lab) / limiting resource : Neural Sensors (Jupiter)
Wukong (Dojo Tenno Lab) / limiting resource : Neural Sensors (Jupiter)




(Note : Rhino is usually considered the easiest second warframe to get... Phobos is not that far from earth)

Rhino is definitely ez recommend, that will carry you through the most of the nodes due to its survivability, from Dojo I can also mention Zephyr if you have some AoE weapons - you become AC-130 of WF basically. Even if you don't like it, Zephyr would quickly become your go-to frame for mastery rank challenges

Gara and Garuda are definitely NOT the ones you unlock early game, given their requirements, unless someone carries you hard, but at this point you might as well just expect someone to gift you prime parts (I got my first prime from my clanmates like this) - otherwise they'll come much later.

^ Rhino for sure

To be frank, many times the WarFrames people often suggest are the ones that they've addapted the easiest and can provide you a decent amount of survivabillity on their own (eventually coupling that with some mods like Equillibrium, Rage or Hunter's Adrenaline).
I adored playing Nyx and I still do from time to time.

For a mere comparison example: When I finally go my hands upon my 1st (and regular) Rhino I didn't liked playing it at all because, imho, by that in the between time I've already had gotten a Valkyr and it felt so much more compelling to keep playing rather than pressing that Rhino's armour skill and mindlessly/carelessly proceed onwards (after levelling that Rhino stashed it away pretty much until I've made my Prime version of it and then feeded the 1st one that I've got into the Helminth).

If you have Duviri unlocked, you can also get frames by doing the normal chain mode. I believe Ash is one of the options this week.

You get a lot of various weird ones for free simply doing quests. Some are unique to quests only and cannot be obtained by any other means. Just do the quests. More opportunities for others will become available as you progress (as others have pointed out).

And yet, you cannot buy Nidus parts with plat, so your logic is flawed. It is often easier to acquire the prime version of a frame, true, but you still need the regular one for MR and subsuming.

he mean earn plat and buy regular nidus directly so no need dealing with bad rng in salvage mission.

Frames that you get from planet bosses(assassination missions) are the easiest to obtain. Including invasion assassination(phorid) which can appear on different planets. And excluding Uranus, which is ass to farm. Frames from tenno lab clan room are quite easy to build also but require materials from several planets.

Locking this thread, as it was over a year old before recent comments and we want to avoid any potential confusion.
