When do you start doing story missions?

[Terrarius]

So far my path:
get t3 equipment
attack all 3 chosen(sometimes with 1 or 2 weapons still beeing t2)
research their weapons
do all storymissions as fast as possible from here on and skip ALL other missions for there is no point in doing them anymore.

it seems like its not the intendet path at all:

I often hack into a codex/officier on the forge or the gate mission..only 1 of those 2 quests grants avatarprojectreduction if you do them during the same mission(bug or punishment?)

On the other hand the codex is a very tough enemy...you get punished for doing the story early by having to deal with him early on.If you deceide to not do the story until lategame you don,t have to deal wtih those earlyon insanely hard codex enemys.

Codexes are easy. The only times I've had anything close to serious trouble with one is if I'm fighting multiple pods and can't get mobile to finish them off.

I do Story Missions when the timer of Doom ticks down :)

I tend to try having SPARKs for the Blacksite mission, and I do the Blacksite mission before doing any other Facility missions so it works like a self-imposed timer.

Hence, I tend to do them like so:

Lost and Abandoned
Lost Towers
Blacksite

then... whatever. Normally do the Regal Beast mission once I'm at Tier 2.
