Lasar also highlights the importance of using Specters and Necros for additional support, as well as preparing for unique mission conditions. With a focus on smart Warframe and weapon choices, the video provides practical tips for succeeding in this demanding mission mode.

Takeaways

• 😀 Prioritize Warframes that boost survivability, like Dante, especially when dealing with difficult modifiers in Elite Deep Aramedia.
• 😀 Sacrifice two of your lockouts early on to get a better selection of Warframes and weapons, but be prepared for worse options too.
• 😀 Consider weapon efficiency carefully – some weapons like the Tora are ammo-heavy and not ideal with ammo deficit modifiers.
• 😀 Always read and consider modifiers carefully, as they can significantly impact your strategy (e.g., ammo deficit, fractured armor).
• 😀 Specters can be powerful allies in Elite Deep Aramedia, offering support like healing or additional buffs without the effects of negative ability duration modifiers.
• 😀 In some situations, melee may be the best option to conserve ammo, especially with ammo deficit modifiers in play.
• 😀 When facing the Powerless modifier (which disables Warframe mobility), choose Warframes that can still handle enemies effectively without relying on Warframe abilities.
• 😀 Modifiers like Devil's Bargain (fire rate boost but reduced ammo efficiency) require careful weapon selection to avoid running out of ammo.
• 😀 Build your weapons around specific needs for the mission, such as corrosive for Necrom X or radiation for Murmurs.
• 😀 When playing with a team, ensure each player understands their role—assign dedicated defense roles or damage-dealing tasks for better coordination.
• 😀 Use gear wisely, such as energy pads or necromechs, when facing challenging situations where Warframe abilities are restricted or modifiers hinder performance.

Q & A

What is the general approach to tackling Elite Deep Aredia according to the script?

The general approach is to enable as many modifiers as possible, excluding the very last one, as the reward from the final modifier is minimal. Focus on survival and team support, particularly with Warframe choices like Dante for overguard.

Why should you prioritize enabling most modifiers in Elite Deep Aredia?

Enabling most modifiers helps maximize rewards and prepares you to handle the various challenges that come with them. The last modifier is not worth enabling since its reward is limited to just 50 boss, making it unnecessary to prioritize.

Which Warframe is recommended for survivability in Elite Deep Aredia?

Dante is recommended for his fantastic overguard ability, which ensures not only personal survival but also supports the entire team’s survivability.

What is the issue with using Octavia and similar Warframes in this mode?

Octavia and similar Warframes can be less effective due to modifiers like abbreviated abilities and reduced ability duration, which can significantly impair their performance.

What weapons are suggested for use in Elite Deep Aredia with ammo deficit modifiers?

Weapons that are ammo-efficient, like the Kua Chakor, are recommended. The Tora Prime, while powerful, is a heavy ammo user and may not be as viable under the ammo deficit modifier.

Why is the Kraken considered an acceptable secondary weapon in Elite Deep Aredia?

The Kraken is considered acceptable due to its decent performance in combat. Despite being a secondary, it can still handle the challenges when combined with other weaponry for support.

How does the ammo deficit modifier impact weapon choices?

The ammo deficit modifier reduces ammo drops, so it's best to choose weapons with lower ammo consumption or to rely on melee combat when using ammo-heavy weapons like the Tora.

What strategy is recommended for dealing with the 'Powerless' modifier?

With the 'Powerless' modifier, Warframe mobility is disabled until 50 kills are made. This requires relying on weapons and manual movement to survive and kill enemies without Warframe abilities.

How do specters help in Elite Deep Aredia?

Specters can significantly assist by providing additional support, like survivability through a Dante Specter with overguard or providing extra energy via an energy Specter. Specters do not suffer from the negative ability duration modifier.

Why is it important to check the mission modifiers before starting a mission?

Checking mission modifiers ensures you are prepared for the specific challenges of that mission. For example, modifiers like 'Demo List' or 'Devil’s Bargain' can affect gameplay strategies, requiring you to adapt accordingly.
