can someone explain how to get the hound that I want?

[MotherVicar]

So I defeated many sisters and have all these hounds in the foundry.

But I want to build one at legs out of the components I choose sooo what do I do?

claim a hound from a sister from the foundry? ok now I have a complete hound I dont want at level 0....do I kill it or something? rip it apart for parts?
Do I have to arbitrary level the dog I dont want to level 30 before I can do anything?

My memory isn't great on this topic but you should get Hound parts into the foundry when you defeat a sister. Craft the parts and then go to Legs and create your own Hound. You can sell the pre-built Hound in the foundry if you don't have other use for it.

Well thats the thing, I dont get parts, I get a fully build hound to claim

Every Sister you beat drops either a Model, Core, Bracket or Stabilizer blueprint alongside the ready Hound she used. Go check your foundry.

ah right so the full build sister hounds I just discard then I guess

1. There's a random BP that drops.

2. As with the MOAs, there are 3 head types that count towards your MR. Just level each hound to 30, guild it at Legs (Fortuna), then level it to 30 again - this is the leveling that adds to your MR rank.

Every hound unlocks mods - head, body, legs, and tail.

3. If there are certain pieces that you want, you can look them up on the warframe wiki and ask to buy the BPs in trade chat.

yeah ok so you get one full build hound that belongs to teh Sister.
But then also 1 random part of a hound.

the hound from the sister you just...sell for 20k unless you like that hound which you will only know after claiming it.

I guess I dont get why I cant just take apart a sister's hound and get those parts instead of just one unrelated random part.

but you do want to build 3 hound out of all the parts so you can have all the mods right?

or do you get the mods as well from just leveling and gilding and leveling again the premade sister hounds?

you will get the mods either from claiming a sister's hound or building one of each model.
not missing out on mods by selling the sister's hound.

best to run the sister's confrontation in a 4 person squad so you get 4 blueprints per run.
