Legendary/High-MR Tenno: How do you do it?

Hello everyone,

I've been trying to work through my remaining MR fodder. I've picked a few things off my remaining unmastered list and started trying to acquire them... only problem is these things have proven unexpectedly difficult/annoying to get. So, is there a resource somewhere to allow for quick differentiation based on ease of acquisition?

I've got few enough things on the list I could probably fit the set of all weapons I haven't mastered yet into 3-4 screenshots if that'd help.

Edit: Was asked for the screenshots:

Took a bit more than I thought. While I was at it also took a few of the other things that give MR:

I have Tatsu Prime & Citrine building but otherwise I think the screenshots show a pretty accurate listing of what I still need to put effort into.

  • LR4 here, the screenshots might help with suggestions on how to obtain things in a timely manner. One thing to note though is that a lot of veterans like my self who have been playing for close to 10 years have been able to pace ourselves with the release of content to some degree. So while the total number of MR based items may seem high, it wasn't always the case.

    • I've been at it a few years myself as well. 4.4k hours on Steam. It took a few more screenshots than I thought it would but I've updated the main-body of the post with the whole log of everything I haven't mastered. Thanks for taking the time to help, I really appreciate it.

      • Sorry for the late reply. Looks like the majority of what you still need to level is Prime things. If you weren't already aware those can be acquired from Void Relics. A large majority of the ones you still need to level are vaulted. Luckily two frames and their associated weapons are un-vaulted each month. You can check to see which are from the market in your ship under Prime Resurgence. Or by going to Maroo's Bazarr on Mars and talking to Varzia.

        The next large chunk of items are the Kuva and Tenet weapons which you get from the Lich system. This would probably be the most time consuming behind the Prime items you're missing. For a full run down of how that system works i would recommend just checking the wiki page.

        The rest are kind of scattered about so you can always refer to the wiki as to how to acquire them. The one exception to that would be the compainion weapons which you will get from building the normal and prime variants, leveling the Sister Hounds (which you will get from interacting with the Lich system), and leveling the Moas from Legs in Fortuna.

        Hope that helps!

        • I thought about as much but it helps to hear somebody else say it seeing my situation. I've been trying to get the Alternox & Sibear and when either gets frustrating taking a break to crack relics. I've been poking at Liches every now-and-then as well. Honestly, it's the Forma cost of getting all the MR out of them that's my biggest stopping point on that, not the Liches themselves.

          Really helps to hear I'm more or less on the right track, thanks!

          • Always keep in mind that ideally, you should be doing two things at once when you’re doing something. Working lich murmurs? Be sure to do the excavation mission for cryotic to get that Sibear. Grinding XP in ESO? Be sure to stay to wave 8’s end, to get a chance at Braton Vandal and Lato Vandal.

            And on a different note, to avoid burnout don’t do the same void-damned thing over and over and over. When grinding for Old Mate standing with Fortuna, I’d start each day with a bounty, and end the day with another. If a clan mate wanted to run some of them during the day, great, I’d do that. But I did not spend 3 hours running the same bounty over and over.

            If the only sensible place to get something means you have to grind the same mission over and over, vary the gear you use for it so it becomes more interesting. This is what I did grinding for Harrow Systems back when its best drop chance was a dismally low number from Saturn Defection. You hate the game going to the same mission with the same gear over and over. So I tried most every frame to see if things that weren’t the meta for defection would work, and to my delight discovered that several are quite good at it.

            And finally, I hope you have a good, social clan that likes helping. If you don’t, maybe I can fix that.
