New player help, When is a good time to start “building”.
Hi I’m a relatively new player and currently MR5 and am still working my way through the star chart(At Saturn atm). I started with Mag and am currently using the Boltor.
I’ve been watching guides on YouTube and so have a basic understanding of how to achieve my build. However it seems a lot of the mods I require are out of my reach or require forma/potatoes.
When should I start following builds? Am I still too early?
I don’t have any forma blueprints nor any potatoes. Should I be grinding for them specifically now or only when I’ve gotten further?
Currently my Boltor has the following mods Serration rank 6, Infected Clip and Hellfire. I’ve seen that multi shot is important and the rifle multi shot mod can be dropped on spy missions at 5% chance. Is it worth grinding spy missions for it?
Any other advice would help too. Thank you!

I was going to say that grinding Forma is always worth it however Convict45 has the better idea. Farm Forma incidentally while ranking stuff. When it comes to Potatoes I get them via Nightwave. Do the daily/weekly tasks and you periodically get currency which can be used to buy things from Nora's store. Both versions of Potato are always options... however there's a short intermission between Nightwaves so that's worth watching out for, don't want to need a Potato and not be able to grab one because Nightwave ended a few days ago.
I'll say this: In spite of your ability to put Potatoes on an unranked weapon don't Potato a gun until it's 30 unless you're certain it's a keeper either for shear power or fun-factor. Potatoes don't just grow in the ground.
Potatoes I get them via Nightwave.
Kinda a waste IMO potatoes = 20 plat = 75 credits which for a new player is a ton due to no access to missions
some of the aura mods sell for 20-30 plat and only cost like 20 nightwave credits, then you can just install potatoes.
On top of that new players should be buying nitain only as tons of early crafts require it and they will only be getting credits like once every 6 weeks with the missions they have access to.
This is a good point. I keep forgetting how much Nitan Extract is needed now that I've built the majority of things that require it.
ya like every single prime frame needs like 5 i think and wukong and ivara for some reason need like 9 ea.
To do all craftables you need like 800 nightwave creds which is a hell of a lot of weeks of nightwave if you cant bum rush it to rank 30 nightwave
