Arcane grind in Duviri

[emersonsk8_100]

I like to collect arcanes but the arcane farm in Duviri looks kinda rough. since you need 21 to complete each set and there's 8 new sets you will need to kill Oroworm on normal difficulty 168 times, since it gives 10 pathos clamp and each single arcane costs 10 .You can do steel path for 15 but it will still last 112 Oroworm kills, usually it takes me something around 20 minutes to complete the bounty and kill the Oroworm . And beside that there's an RNG on the shop, so you you have to wait the right arcane to show up. What's your guys opinion on this?

Considering the grind, I think they could at least have allowed us to buy more than one at a time. That's kind of the part that annoys me the most, especially when there's even RNG for the trader and intrinsic requirement on top of that.

Next update will add new ways to obtain duviri arcanes. I don`t remember the details but it was talked about in the last devstream if you want more info.

Arcane rotation from Acrithis is on a daily rotation, which is very generous.

Just remember to play SP Circuit weekly, and at least do 1 Duviri run per day.
Play the game for the sake of playing, not for hoarding everything ASAP. You'll get them all in due time, otherwise you risk of burn out.

Most of the arcane offered are fun arcane that dependent on very specific proc anyway. It's not an essential part of the equation.

So, as gabi_h said, they are adding more stuff in a later update.

After defeating the worm, the inactive portals around the map become active and you are able to do missions there to grind arcanes.

Not sure when this will be implemented it so yea...

My issue with this is that there's one single currency (pathos clamp) for :

- daily arcane deal (some cost more than 10/unit)
- Drifter melee unlocks (ofc platinum bypass is possible...)
- Incarnon genesis unlocks

And there's only one single source to get pathos clamps, the Orowyrm... Which takes approx 20min solo in normal (lone story) but can take longer due to rng activities and undercroft mission type. Steel Path runs aren't rewarding enough, since thanks to rng at all levels, the solo runs can take up to 40-50 mins...

So, even with the unhealthy amount of time I have to play Warframe as of late, I decided not to get more Drifter melees, not to build all incarnon genesis I got, and not to pick arcanes I'm not interested in testing that much.

Despite this, I'm already sort of burned out...

Considering how disappointing some incarnons are, how weak the Duviri melees are outside of Duviri and how very niche some of the new arcanes seems to be...

Khal weekly missions is a thing I stop doing a while ago because I didn't need that many shards anyway and it was boring to me.

Now, I'm looking at this pathos clamp farm and I'm wondering if I really want to test those 'new' stuff because getting there to the point you finally have those new toys is not entertaining me as much as I thought it would.

Yeah This is pretty much where I'm at. Sitting on 3 incarnon adapters with 0 interest in the orowyrm runs neccesary to make them happen. Been sticking to the Voruna Lua and Citrine Mars missions for arcanes at the moment. They keep adding more arcane farms to help hold me over since divuri is an easy way to burn me out. I can't stand the idea of more runs in the Circuit, I dont care how cool dread and hate look, I value my sanity with choosing my poison for the day. If I play circuit again, im probably taking a break
