Warframe is smoothing out its new player experience
A player's first steps into a new game can often be overwhelming, but that difficulty leaps exponentially when you're starting an MMO of 12 years. Warframe has expanded from a third-person action game to a hugely complex adventure with tons of side quests and bonus activities to explore, and now developer Digital Extremes is making changes to smooth the onboarding process for new players. The next major update (titled Yareli Prime) lands on May 21, followed by the long-awaited Isleweaver update in June. These will bring in much-needed quality of life features, including a new feature called Arsenal Categories. With more than 50 different Warframes, it can be hard to tell which suit is best suited (pun intended) for a given mission. Arsenal Categories divides Warframes into Damage, Crowd Control, Support, Survival, and Stealth so players can more readily identify types at a glance. Digital Extremes is quick to point out that every Warframe can handle every situation with the right build, however. The update isn't intended to shoehorn players into a specific style. Warframe In addition to Arsenal Categories, weapons will also be split into different categories that 'identify core characteristics shared between weapons.' There are primary, secondary, and melee categories that partition weapons into their main type, such as rifle, throwable, or scythe. Warframe offers so much content that it can feel overwhelming for new players, but these changes will make it easier to make those initial character choices about how you want to approach the game. When the Isleweave update arrives in June, Junctions — a type of solo mission that introduces players to new mechanics — will also receive QoL changes. Previously, selecting a Junction would launch the mission, but it now opens a screen that shows the player all possible rewards and required tasks. Players will also be able to receive rewards upon completing a Junction task, rather than at the end of the mission after defeating the boss. Read More Assassin's Creed Shadows just got delayed by another month And that's just scraping the surface of Digital Extremes's updates for Warframe . The team laid out an incredibly detailed Reddit post with everything you can look forward to in the next couple of months.

How to build Tak & Lug in Warframe
Image via: Digital Extremes Those who have been playing Warframe know that this game is subject to practically weekly changes. Recently, the Tak & Lug saw its introduction via the Galleon of Ghouls event . I would say its looks are rather modest, especially when compared to more ornate variants such as their Prime or Tenet brethren. And yet, this Grineer-forged weapon has its own special charm, mainly in its attempts to rename heavy attacks . Operation Sindoor Pak drones enter Indian airspace, explosions heard just hours after truce deal Sirens, explosions in border districts after Pak breaks deal: What we know so far 'What happened to ceasefire?' J&K CM after explosions heard across Srinagar Read on for a brief description of the reasons why Tak & Lug should be given a try and how to make the best out of it. First Impressions: Blast Without the Boom According to the description of Tak & Lug in-game, the weapon should have a heavy attack that affects a wide area with some Blast — one that conjures images of explosive shockwaves that go about clearing rooms. Things, however, do not happen that way in actual gameplay. Tak & Lug: A Unique Explosive Addition to Warframe's Melee Arsenal by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Cost Of Amusement Park Equipment From Mexico Might Surprise You Amusement Park Equipment | search ads Click Here Undo The unique special in this case behaves much like a thrown projectile. On performing a heavy attack, the Warframe throws the shield forward in a straight line with its incredible throwing ability. This travel distance is around 9 meters and hits any enemies directly in its path. Rather than being an AOE blast, somehow, the attack has become a targeted projectile skillshot with body punch-through that casually clips an enemy or two behind the primary target but hardly any more than that. Importantly, this is not chainable. There is no heavy follow-up or slam; you get one throw once, with no stance interaction. Stats Snapshot: Decent But Not Dominating The stats of Tak & Lug, when viewed on paper, are not really something to admire: Attack Speed - 1.0 Base Range - 2.5m This implies a status weapon with a bias toward Slash procs, meaning it is good for bypassing armor and damaging over time. Thus, high crit stats and average range have no place here, leaving them to be compensated via mod choices and synergizing. NEW Warframe Weapon 'TAK & LUK', Testing Builds - New Players welcome! How to Build Tak & Lug For maximum value from Tak & Lug, best to just forget about the gimmick and focus entirely on reliability. Proposed progression: Status Build Focus Condition Overload - For scaling melee damage upon status effects Weeping Wounds - Increase status on combo multiplier Virulent Scourge + Vicious Frost (or whatever dual-stat mods): More increased status and elemental damage. Slash Maximation Buzz Kill - Increase Slash Damage by direct means Primed Pressure Point - For raw melee damage scaling Utility Options Range mods - Hits aren't far apart, not a natural AOE weapon, but more range can make up for its narrow hitbox Life Strike - For survivability, more so if you're running high sustain builds. Who Should Use It? For a collector, this weapon has a limited-time offer for being event exclusive. In gameplay, it perfectly fits mid-tier content or status-hybrid builds, more specifically for Warframes who thrive on clicking something quickly to spread multiple effects (Saryn, Khora, and others). In any case, this is not the way to go if you want the best of the best in melee damage. TAK & LUG: NOVA ARMA NUKE DO WARFRAME (COM UM MOD IMPORTANTE!) | BUILD ENDGAME & ANÁLISE (2025) Tak & Lug might disappoint in its "wide area" promise, but its specialized shield throw offers an interesting tactical dimension—even for those who prefer precision and utility to brute force. It's just that, on the right build, maybe throw in a few flashy moves and this will be a stylish addition to an arsenal, but it won't do anything really spectacular, breaking the meta, as some had hoped.

Don't miss the login! [WARFRAME] 10 MINUTE EVENT? "Galleon Of Ghouls" Event Guide + New Primed Mod Baro Review by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Nagelpilz-Laser jetzt 69,90€ statt 229€ (Rabattaktion) Heilratgeber Weiterlesen Undo How to Complete the Galleon of Ghouls Event Solo in Warframe? The event plays like a twist on classic Capture missions — but there's a catch: You're locked into using an event-only Ogris launcher. No other weapons and no abilities. The Ogris has infinite ammo but can hurt you if you're careless. Your goal: track down and capture the Instigator Ghoul, a new mini-boss that doesn't appear right away. Keep progressing through the level — it'll spawn shortly. The mission is short, straightforward, and repeatable. Farming is efficient — just don't blow yourself up. Best Warframes for Solo Runs Since you can't use abilities, survivability is key. You'll want a Warframe that can tank hits and stay mobile. Top Solo Picks: Inaros / Inaros Prime : Massive health pool, passive healing, no energy dependency. Nidus / Nidus Prime : Health regen and scaling tankiness help offset disabled powers. Recommended Mods: Health + Armor Mods (Vitality, Steel Fiber) Adaptation for damage resistance Mobilize / Rush for faster movement Damage Reduction Arcanes (if available) Warframe: Galleon of Ghouls: 3 Weekends, 3 Rewards – What You MUST Do! Galleon of Ghouls Event Rewards You're grinding for two exclusive Grineer-themed melee weapons: Tonkkatt (Tonfa) Needs : 2x Blade, 2x Handle Tak & Lug (Sword & Shield) Needs : Blade, Handle, Guard On the third weekend, you'll also get: Orokin Catalyst Orokin Reactor All rewards (except blueprints) can be farmed multiple times by replaying the alerts. Final Thoughts The Galleon of Ghouls event is short, rewarding, and easy to solo with the right prep. Even if you miss the event, the weapons will likely return later, but why wait? Log in, jump in, blast some Ghouls, and walk away with two deadly melee weapons and Prime resources.
