Hello Tenno!
I just got Mr 17 and unlocked Archon Hunts, but it is so hard for me that I got unmotivated and honestly have no idea what I should do next. As soon as I found a favorite gun (that would be Fulmin), I spent some plat to make a good build for it and after 7 forma I honestly was really happy with the result, it was helping me through a lot of content (except Profit Taker) and I was really enjoying it… Until I reached Archon hunts. The mobs in Archon hunts barely take damage from my Fulmin and also do a lot of damage to my frames to the point that right now is impossible for me to solo it, and I don’t like being carried every week because it feels like I’m leeching. So please help me what should I do next? I’m on my way to unlock Steel Path but I got my ass kicked so hard I’m not even confident enough to tackle SP without being carried again.
Warframe uses Peer to Peer networking for lobbies, where one player is the host (in the upper right, you will see the number “1” next to their name). Everyone else in the lobby would be called clients and they are all connected to each other through the Host. A side effect of this is that Hosts tend to experience fewer bugs, and the game sometimes runs better for them than for clients (the game feels more responsive as a host to me even for certain things like transference which is supposed to work client side now) .
*One last thing about hosts in endless missions like defense. In the end of rotation screen the Host’s avatar will have a small crown identifying them (it may be a little hard to see). You can also hover your cursor over everyone in that screen and a box will show up if you are hovering the Host.
Most of the time, if there is a host migration, the next person to host is number “2”, on rare occasions it will pick someone else and I’m honestly not sure why. After a migration numbers are reassigned by who has been in the lobby the longest, reflecting the order of future host migrations.
Ooohh damn thanks, I didn’t know we could see who is the host by looking at those numbers lol, this will make Circuit grind a lot easier now cuz I usually left as soon as someone else did by fear of getting a host changing (forgot the name).
