Got inspired by some buddies to do some captura (and got to do some photo editing)

[aqg-arts]

Hello and welcome back to another day of me crying myself to sleep.

On today's episode of WDTCRUO (Who does this character remind you of?), I plan on covering these few unfortunate characters and torturing you with who they remind me of.

You know the drill- 5 characters, 5 people they remind me of.

I know, that sounds amazing.

Anyway, today's wf shitpost victims, we have:

1. Clem

Lil babi bean ommmggg

2. Inaros

Sandy fuck fr

3. The Queens

Pass

4. Biz

Boopable

5. Gara Prime

Queen fr (love her ngl)

So now we get to ruin the joy they bring with my own shit.

Too fucked to write half of this, but who cares? Letsa go!

1. Golden retriever puppy

He is so loveable I just want to cuddle him.

2. Pharaohs curse

He's a meme fr tho

3. Nope

Gross. Just, ugh, I can smell her and I hate it. Poor Teshin, being kept as essentially a slave by that giant earth worm wannabe, jfc.

4. We don't know

He is so mysterious fr o.o

5.

She's perfect, I really do enjoy her :D

Anyway, wnjoy it ig, see ya next week yaayyyyy

Inaros - inspired by Albrecht's Vessels

[themanwhomadeamonster]

how many times do we have to teach u old man (kullervo not learning from inaros and nidus)

[grineerios]

You chose to pick a fight with one WF character, who did you choose?

oooohhh, okay, okay, I'm banning myself from choosing any Warframes, Orokin, or Dax because that's low hanging fruit.

Not a character per se but if I had a warframe, I'd be picking a fight with a Void Angel. If it had to be a named character, then Tyl Regor. He has a certain elegance that other melee Grineer don't have, and I appreciate his skill with his weapon- it makes for a satisfying fight that feels mostly fair.

Now if I didn't have a warframe, you'd probably find me making a mace out of ducats in preparation for the next Baro Ki'teer visit. Even after Sands of Inaros, and even with a prime warframe, he's still one of- if not- the most punchable non-orokin characters.

[chaoticevilspacewitch]

I think the White Fang arc could've been handled much better. The point about the WF mostly being used to create an army of mooks and minions for the villains lands true, imho. It was not a good look. The anti-extremism message was pretty muddled in there for a while, and the eventual solution *really* smelt like the kind of whitewashed MLK tripe that middle class white people love to trot out.

The whole thing needed more nuance and worldbuilding to do a very pertinent real-world issue some semblance of justice, and RWBY just didn't have the scope or budget to do that.

I'd point out, as a better, similar treatment, the Belter arc in The Expanse. Marco Inaros is remarkably similar to Adam Taurus, and showcases the descent from fighting for justice to committing atrocities very well.

"they dropped the ball so badly with the whole White Fang plot"

I'm not sure what show you're watching, but the White Fang subplot was perfectly fine (if in need of a little fleshing out in some bits) and pretty damn relevant in today's day and age.

It perpetuates a harmful trope where racism and oppression is introduced into a story just to create a villain out of the oppressed that go a little 'too far' in fighting back. The White Fang were pretty much the only thing RWBY did with Faunus oppression, and they weren't even a good representation of it, as they mostly did things that were inconsistent with their motivations (working for a human that was clearly racist against them, committing crimes thar did nothing to help faunus rights and hurt faunus just as badly as they did their oppressors, etc.). They lacked any nuance or depth, and just served as expendable mooks working for the bad guy. This would be bad enough on its own, but the fact that the White Fang's existence seemed to be the main representation of faunus oppression outside of Blake herself. Racism and oppression are difficult and nuanced topics to write about, especially when done through allegory, and the fact that it was mostly used to create an army of mooks for the good guys to cut down has been one of RWBY's biggest flaws. Miles and Kerry recognize that what they did with them was a massive mistake, and thus have taken a step back from tackling the issue on a larger scale. Sure, they can't ignore the issue, faunus racism is pretty ingrained in the worldbuilding and is pretty integral to one of their main characters, but it's not a subject they trust themselves to tackle properly

[floofsqueak]

my Inaros is a colour vomit and a stinky mummy boy

[ridl]

Forgotten god

[solarisunited]

Ahtal-Ka inspired color scheme!

[cognitohazard]

Day 5 of Tennotober: Beetle

According to me, Inaros looks like a bug, so like, don't @ me bro- I have bad eyes 🤷‍♀️

But like, he do be sandy tho

[alteredsilicone]

Titania (work in progress)

not sure what to do with my archon shards (who to focus on), so I guess I'm having fun with Titania

[allheartnobrainandnoplans]

Warframe personalities from how I see them, by my first glance at them.

Heads up, this is a long post. Enjoy~!

Ash: Aloof mofo with a stabbing habit. could rob you of all your money in texas hold ‘em. Too much damn side eye. Kills everyone is the room, then breaks for coffee like nothing happened. Ninja who steals the last slice of cake from the fridge.

Atlas: would kick your ass then be your best bro. is dead inside? somewhat likely but can’t tell anymore. makes shitty jokes. I get he’s a one punch man stone golem, but c’mon, the guy gives pretty good hugs.

Banshee: Resting bitch face, but is sound sensitive so she has a reason. Most likely up to god knows what hours listening to music enjoying synethesia sensations. Knows a thing or two about where to find the best obscure books. Caring protective friend.

Chroma: Moody guy who just wants some fucking peace and quiet. Hoards things like trophies from kills, bet this guy has so many hunting trophies? ffs, his ult is a dragon pelt, might as well be a dragon! Really good at pissing off people without even trying.

Ember: Sassy friend wants all the tea. Best booty to boot. You see that guy over there? He’s on fire. She fucking murdered him with sick comebacks. Don’t get me wrong though, she might like her bacon crispy but she’s a pretty loyal friend. Probably would come get your ass for a revive with intent to raze the fucking field with wildfire.

Equinox: Calm balanced friend??? Has two sides she shows to different people, everyone who talks to her might find something different about her. Likes keeping a lot of houseplants in her room in the dojo. Courteous and polite and gives the best backhanded compliments under a pleasant facade.

Excalibur: Average Joe. Good at a lot but not the best, really doesn't give his best. Very athletic. rushes through missions impatiently. Might play too many hack’n’slash games in his spare time.

Frost: Stoic, quiet, probably has some thought going on at all times. Reads a lot of mythology from before the orokin era. Procrastinates and stalls for his buddies while holding down the fort. solid person to talk to if you need someone to listen.

Hydroid: The guy has enough mentions about tentacle porn, it’s safe to say he’s hoarding a hentai stash somewhere. or people assume. just a guy who loves the water, could talk for days about fish and where to find all the best seafood restaurants. has had enough people mentioning pirates around him. has a good, hearty laugh.

Inaros: Tired, always fucking tired. Sleep? I’ll sleep when I’m dead. if you can kill me, that is. Mmm. nom. Corpus tastes metallic. Grineer tastes like really bad slimy chicken. I’m not sharing what infested taste like. Shields? What the heck is that? Appreciates old architecture and hoards ayatan statues.

Ivara: Sneaky sneaky~ I got an arrow for just about any job. Just because i am a cyclops doesn’t mean i don’t have depth perception, dumbass. Carefree happy lady, fun to talk to. Makes lots of banter with teammates on missions.

Limbo: Trolls might love this guy, why doesn't he have a fedora helmet yet? I’ve not seen enough Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure to know what those references mean. He’s a real gentleman, very inquisitive. He’s a scientist? Aw, cool. Prolly spacing out while carousing through the rift, thinking about his next project.

Loki: The Cheeseframe is what people call him. Knows where all the loot is, all the time. Giggling and pulling pranks 24/7. Can do shit effortlessly and stares at his team wondering why the fuck the had to trigger the damn alarm in a mission. Also, hammerhead shark. This guys likes playing card games too.

Mag: In a state of calm and panic at the same time. Doesn’t show much though. Magnetic personality? Could crush your heart in a minute. Has a good taste in interior design, rather good at art deco/ industrial. Has some walls to get through before befriending her, but melts like a marshmellow when ya do.

Mesa: 360 no scope!!! It’s high noon! okay, now that’s out of the way, let’s keep going. Keeps an orderly schedule, off doing solo missions all the time. Loves a good movie, could talk about her favorite film for hours. Deserts are dry? So is her humor. Would shoot you without even thinking.

Mirage: You thought Loki’s pranks were bad? At least her enemies get these night mare shows and not you. This chick loves horror films, special effects make up and disco. Pretty good at good at lighting up the room and your smile. She really just wants a good time, okay?

Nekros: Sick mofo who tells dead baby jokes. Has some interesting kinks. Rarely eats, if ever. Would look you dead in the eye and try to tell you bad puns seriously as possible. Has seen the dead walk again, thinks they’re best buddies. good guy to go to a graveyard with.

Nezha: Srsly good looking.. guy? girl? oh idc he can be genderfluid and i’d still think he’s attractive. Got serious hula skills. Never takes himself seriously and just loves going for long missions. Knows a thing or two about culture, rather classy guy but can be a bit childish. Never really grew up, but you don’t notice that behind the charm.

Nidus: This is the I-don’t-give-a damn guy. He wrecks everything he touches, spreads space aids, yet his personality is far from cancer. Very good with animals. A bit messy. Too many damn things talking in his head from the infested and ignores them like a champ. They bend to his will.

Nova: A Good Egg, if slightly cracked. Giggles at the mention of inane words. Everything explodes!!! ADHD in a frame. Good natured wholesome friend who loves everyone. Bad habit of breaking appliances and electronics. Geiger counters near her start playing Imagine Dragon’s Radioactive?

Nyx: Look at this frame. You took a good warframe and gave it anxiety, sheesh. Shy, kinda hard to deal with hearing everyone’s thoughts sometimes. ain’t got time for your drama. Loves talking about current events, but not much of a gossip out of respect for others. giant personal space bubble, do not touch!

Oberon: Royal pain in the ass, but a lovable doofus so you kinda just let it go. Very protective dad friend, complete with dad jokes. Probably would like to finish your sandwich if you’re not gonna eat it. Would open his home to you if you needed a couch to surf on.

Octavia: This girl loves all music, could help you find just the mix you were looking for. Got sick dance moves too. Might have been in band. Would happily binge watch any tv show with you and discuss everything about it. You don’t know what so charming about her, but you really like her so you always accept her invites. Had a bad habit of fidgeting.

Rhino: This guy could bench press a grineer ship in one hand and corpus ship in the other. you don’t move out of his way, he runs you over, simple as that. gym rat, for sure. somewhat impatient. watches way too many superhero blockbusters and devours the comics. Mows down the entire enemy wave just get your sorry bleeding ass back up and fighting again.

Saryn: Oh, good lotus, this chick has got good looks and a deadly touch. Cunning girl could outsmart anyone. Low key annoyed in general. Would back stab you without a thought, given a reason. Knows a lot about cooking. I mean, if you’re going to poison someone or at least know how to work in the biolab you should probably know how this type of chemistry works. dodges responsibility a lot tho.

Titania: flighty as fuck, gets startled easily. graceful; she has good fashion sense. you have no idea where she came from in the room. fairy tales are definitely her thing, but happy endings really aren't true with that state of things right now in the solar system. too many butterflies, but is fine with it since they help her stay calm. Actually really good at flying archwings, I think?

Trinity: First one to rush into the fight, last one to leave until everyone is okay. Is the Mom friend. Likes to be helpful. Rather much a bitch to those she hates. She may have an open heart, but don’t walk all over this girl. Cross her once, shame on you. Cross her twice, she leaves you for dead on eris, end of story.

Valkyr: Look, she’s been through some shit, has ptsd, the very least you can do is give her a cat plushie and your support, okay? Gets angry easily and has meltdowns. She’s not a pushover. She knows what’s best, she can endure. semi serious, jokes fly over her head. it may take a bit for her to like you. literally a cat frame, you don’t know love until you've been loved by a cat.

Vauban: Forget Limbo being a troll. This is THE trollframe. Went to college for engineering, came back out a smart ass. Don’t loan money to him, he prolly won’t pay ya back. Pretty good drinking buddy tho. Reads a shit ton of shakespear to know what that sense of humor really is. Shit poster, meme hoarder extrordinaire. you can have a grenade! And you can have a grenade! YOU ALL CAN HAVE GRENADES!

Volt: Impeccable taste mixed with sharp commentary. Why does he have a helmet that’s a boob? maybe he has a high schooler’s sense of humor? would be honest with you and tell you straight up what needs to be done. This guy likes expensive suits. Has a tendency to be impulsive.

Wukong: Has loads of stories to tell. Good memory. Can comeback from just about any setback. determined and will happily grind with you in missions for hours. Also pretty damn stubborn and doesn’t listen well to others, kinda has to speak first.

Zephyr: Life’s a breeze here, right? Kinda goes with whatever and has a hard time deciding on things. Kinda clumsy too. Crashes raids and blows away the enemy. Usually minds her own business with her head in the clouds.

Other Ways:

Volt (if not chosen as starter), Zephyr, Nezha, Wukong, Banshee: by replicating ALL BPs from the Dojo "Tenno Lab";

Oberon: BP parts have a chance to drop from Grineer-controlled node in RJ missions (rotation B caches, i.e.: by completing the objective and hacking the vault in the derelicts) + general BP on the market;

Ash: BP parts have a chance to drop from Corpus Defense RJ missions (rotation C, i.e.: every 20 waves) + general BP on the market;

Khora: ALL BPs have a chance to drop from "Sanctuary Onslaught" (not "Elite"), hosted by Cephalon Simaris;

Ivara: ALL BPs have a chance to drop from regular spy missions (except Pago, Kuva Fortress) of different difficulty tiers, upon hacking successfully all three the vaults;

Grendel: general BP on the market + BP parts can be obtained in dedicated missions to start up through some "locators" (purchased from the "Arbitration Honors" vendor, in the "Arbiters of Hexis" HQ) while on Europa. Good luck with that;

Gauss: general BP from the market + all BP parts have a chance of dropping from conduits in Sedna disruption mission, tier C. Good luck with that.

Lavos: purchasable from "Father" at the Necralisk for "Entrati" standings.

Baruuk: ALL BPs purchasable for standings from "Vox Solaris" in Fortuna.

Styanax: Was for free upon logging in until September 21st 2022. Now it's available through the new syndicate "Khal's Garrison".

Voruna: ALL BPs drop from rotation C of the new "Conjunction Survival" nodes on Lua (along with the related weapons + parts). Alternatively, everything can be bought from Yonta at Chrysalith (Zariman) for Lua Thrax Plasm. Needless to say, this latter option is available only for those who completed "The New War" and "Angels of the Zariman".

Citrine: ALL BPs have a chance to drop on rotation C of the new "Mirror Defense" on Mars (Tyana Pass). Weapon parts and BPs too drop from the same mission, on different rotations. The same BPs (and parts) can be also purchased from Otak on Deimos for Belric and Rania's crystal fragments.

Kullervo: ALL BPs can be purchased from Acrithis' shop (unless he will pop up as reward also in the "Circuit") for a total of 42 Kullervo Banes (9 for each BP part + 15 for the general BP). You can also acquire his "Rauta" shotgun from the same shop with the same "currency". Those "banes" can be obtained only by squaring up with Kullervo himself in his little prison island in Duviri.

*** Dagath: All BPs up for replication in "Dagath's Hollow" (a newly added dojo room). Also stop by and listen to Granny Entrati's story. Don't forget your favourite comfort Floof.

*** PLEASE NOTE!

Equinox is a Warframe that will make you spend the most, both in terms of attempts at getting those BPs from the boss fight AND in resources + credits to fully build this Frame.

The quest "Glast Gambit" for Nidus will involve you spending tons of YOUR credits, with some parts of the quest involving the "Index" on Neptune. Be sure to ask for help from other players, if possible. If you lose at the "index" in any way, you'll also lose your own credits.

Octavia's BPs for her parts can be found on Lua and in Deimos' survival mission. IIRC, the survival has a chance of dropping her Neuroptics on rotation C (every 20 minutes), while the systems have a chance to be found in Lua's caches. As for the chassis part, always on Lua there will be a musical puzzle to solve, if the room will spawn.

About Revenant, I'd strongly suggest NOT to build his parts as soon as they're dropped from the bounties, but wait until taking the quest "Mask of the revenant" instead. The reason is that the quest itself will ask you to build certain parts in certain moments. I honestly have no idea if taking that quest while having all the parts already built will make you skip those requests, or if you'll have to retake the bounties to craft those same parts all over again.

You can find tons of "Harrow Chassis Blueprint" while running any fissure mission, his "neuroptics" BP has a chance of being obtained upon hacking all 3 vaults in pago (Kuva Fortress) spy mission, while his "systems" BP has a chance to drop from one of the most disliked and least played modes: defection missions.

Nidus parts will drop from "Salvage" missions on Eris, all from rotation C. Good luck with that.

In order to build Dagath, you will need a new resource called "Vainthorn", which can be obtained from dedicated missions in the newly added "Abyssal Zone". Those missions are a slightly modified exterminate against Grineer, and can be accessed through deploying "Abyssal beacons", which are purchasable for 5.000 standing from any of the six relay syndicates (namely: Suda, Steel Meridian, Red Veil, Arbiters, Perrin and New Loka).

Besides being available through bounties and as final reward for the quest, all of Qorvex's BPs are also available for purchase through standings at Bird-3's shop in Sanctum Anatomica.

[gaogaigar-the-king]

For the WF ask thingy I'll pick: 2, 4, 8, 39, 40, 56, 61, 75, 78 annnd that's all.

Oh fun. Methinks this will need for a Read More break, so let's just slap that here already.

2. Least favourite frame

Well... *Looks at my least played frames list* Ivara, Atlas, Hydroid, Inaros... Probably someone else I didn't like so much I've deleted them from my memory. Fun fact Inaros was the only time where I had to actually just stop playing a Frame that random.org picked for me until I had no choices left, and Ivara Prime I levelled to max in one single Dark Sector Survival because I just wanted to be done with it.

4. Favourite deluxe skin

Bold of you to assume I have even looked at any deluxe skins that often. The only ones I actually own are Mephisto Revenant and Gersemi Valkyr and I have like... Never really looked at any others. I wish for Equinox and Nidus we could view how the skin would look in different forms before buying it honestly.

8. A frame you want a prime of

Ohh hmm. Well, it's inevitable that all Frames will get a Prime eventually... I do want a Revenant BLING. And a Xaku BLING.

39. Favourite melee

*Opens profile* *Goes to melee, sorts by "most used"*

The Stropha might give these two a run for their money though, once I start levelling it. And the Ceti Lacera is hella good, with those animations making me love it more. Same for the Tenet Grigori.

40. Least favourite melee

*Looks at profile* *Scrolls to the bottom of the list* The list was actually remarkably unhelpful. But I do remember distinctly disliking the Pennant, the Ankyros, the Fragor and pretty much every Sword & Shield combo I have used sorry Baruuk but your weapon sucks

56. What’s the name of your railjack

The HMS IMPOSTENNO, a fusion of two ways to describe me: Impostor, and Tenno.

61. Favourite faction in game

Ffff. Hmmm, this is a very good question. I actually don't think I have a favourite faction, I like and dislike them all for different reasons.

75. Ever experienced something strange in game

*Thinks back at the time Loki got randomly exploded just for bullet jumping and fell out of the map in a Railjack mission* *Thinks at all of the incidences of Liches never despawning* *Remembers the time I ran through a completely unloaded Cambion Drift* *Flashbacks to all the whacky shenanigans caused by someone's Internet/game crashing and causing me a million host migrations*

... Where do I begin?

78. Something you are looking forward to in the future

Ahhh so much. So so much. I'm so invested in this game, the characters and the universe in general that anything will please me.

Although The New War is going to absolutely KILL my emotions first.

[captainextremis]

I finished the Tempestarii quest yesterday. It was a real fun time!

But at the end of the day, It’s not all that impressive. Spoilers under the cut

It was two missions long, one where you get ambushed by some Corpus bitch, then you run away when some moldy old ship appears and you crack some vaults to learn about it. in the second mission, you make nice with spoopy ghost ship and board it, only for Corpus-bitch to ambush you again and then you do the shonen “this-isn’t-even-my-final-form” routine and hit her ship with a “fuck you and everything close to you” missile and banish them to the shadow realm. Then it’s over after a cliffhanger cutscene where Corpus-bitch gets offered help by Granddad Granum.

I love WF, which is why I’m (more than) a little disappointed. This is the second-shortest quest in the game as far as I know. Shortest is Apostasy Prologue, but I bet you could make Tempestarii even shorter if you speedrun it, and that’s what pisses me off. Apostasy is barely even a quest, it’s an interactive cutscene that was supposed to build up to the New War which as been fed to us in bits and pieces and half-baked events (coughcoughScarletSpearcough). Do y’all remember Vox Solaris? The Sacrifice? The War Within? Hell, even Jordas Precept. every single one of those quests had at least one Holy Shit Moment™, like in The War Within when you realize Teshin sold you out to the Queens because “muh honur,” then another one when you realize the old Queen wants to steal your body for the rite of Continuity, then another where you beat her control and jump out of the pool under her throne. The Sacrifice was one entire Holy Shit Moment™.

This isn’t even a good Warframe acquisition quest. The Limbo Theorem, Mask of the Revenant, Chains of Harrow (objectively the best WF acquisition quest), Sand of Inaros, and all the others took way more time than this, and they used that time to expounded on some aspect of Warframe’s world, like Baro Ki’Teer, the Void, the forests of Earth, or just the frames they were focused on, and they gave them a backstory like in the case of Limbo and Mirage.

What did we get for Sevagoth? “Uh, he got lost in the Void. And his shadow’s piloting the ship. We didn’t just copy Chroma’s design one bit, lol.” And our Holy Shit Moment™? An all-out brawl in the shadow realm with a space-shanty in the background? I mean, shit, credit where credit’s due, it slaps harder than an abusive father, but it lasts all of like...three minutes and then the quest just says, “Alright, that’s it. We couldn’t think of any more certified DE Holy Shit Moments™, but we’re still awesome. Buy platinum.”

I’m only bitter because I know DE can do better. I’m starting to think their success is getting to their heads and they think they can just rest on their laurels in hopes their playerbase (the more zealous, anyway) just keep buying plat and playing the game. First the shitty Kuva Lich update, then Railjack 1.0, now Duviri Paradox’s been delayed, more nerfs are coming...I feel like DE’s just coasting, and it worries me.
