How much harder are Deimos bounties compared to Cetus?

[kocur4d]

I am returning player that makes things very out of order... I have decided to do the quest line first and I got to the point where I need Necramech to proceed.

So I went to Deimos, I had a story finished some time ago when it first came out, and loaded Isolation Vault T1 solo and got rekt... Then I loaded L 15-25 bounty and got rekt again...

I like to play solo first to understand mechanics but there is a massive difficulty spike compared to other content I have been doing. Deimos is much much harder - at least that is how it appears to me. Enemies have really weird hit boxes - caterpillar scorpions or something - long and standing up or laying in full length! Are those still infested? Color schema of enemies is blending with with the environment... where is the head :D half of the time I find myself hitting a flora instead of a bad guy... Everything has SO much armor.

I am MR12 I am using higher MR weapons. I dont have many fancy mods but I build basic 60/60 pair/some damage/some status or crit. Warframes are pretty basic as well with standard mods str/dur/reach/eff depending on the frame plus some utility mods and survivability mods - nothing special just basic rare mods you get by plying the game.

This setup allowed me to almost finish entire starchart do most of the Cetus bounties solo - higher ones I do in groups.


Is Deimos considered much more harder compared to other content or is it just me?
Is "standard" use anywarframe with "basic" rare mods on frame and weapons not enough for it?

Any tips on how to proceed? I dont need meta builds I will not have mods for it anyway just some general advice and discussion please.

The stronger infested mobs on the Cambion Drift are immune to Viral.

Mod weapons for Corrosive and Fire.

Deimos is harder just on the basis that Grineer are proper nice and chunky. Infested are all different shapes and sizes. Not to mention the Deimos color pallet blends everything together.

You want something that can either AoE damage, AoE CC, or just blind target everything on a screen. Skip anything that requires precision, because good luck aiming for "head" spots when everything looks like a glob of rainbow sherbet.

Don't forget about jugulus aimboting you from the distance barely any warframe ability can reach. And they look like a damn infested tree as well.

OK. Good to know. Thank you. I will dust off Amprex and see how will it go. I will look for other AoE weapons as well since I havent been using those much before.

I went in with Burston Prime - I love bryt - bryt - it didnt work well :)

Any other weapon suggestions for up to MR12?

That is what I am going for! Thank you.

the infested here are immune to some damage types. So harder to kill than the average infested

On the bright side, Liberation missions on Deimos are kinda more forgiving than similar missions in POE.
