The following restrictions apply:

  • Account is totally fresh
  • Joining a clan for blueprints is allowed
  • Every node must be done solo
  • No trading, except for transferring a prime set of the frame of your choice (if a prime exists)
  • Specters and Skaut are allowed, but please note if your strategy would require them for certain nodes
  • Helminth abilities are allowed

Off the top of my head, my top picks for this challenge would be Nyx, Limbo, Octavia and Frost since they have good CC and objective defense, and good weapon support; “complete” frames if you will. Loki, Zephyr and Banshee would all also be good picks, although missing elements from their kit here and there.

    You don’t get partial credit for an incomplete extractor and the waves don’t get easier, and the extractors don’t scale very well. On SP I’ve been in a position with certain frames (Loki even with irradiating disarm) where I couldn’t clear a single extractor.

    I suppose this is true for defense objectives in general though - that one moon defense node on SP, for example - Stofler. And like the other person mentioned below for mobile defense.

      Wait, you don’t?

      I definitely recall it giving you partial cryotic for each one (assuming you actually powered it at all), and you just need a certain amount to leave.

      It’s possible they’ve changed it or I’m misremembering- I haven’t done an excavation in literal years due to farming so many a loooong time ago.

        I haven’t done it outside of SP for a while. I know Duviri gives partial credit. Maybe normal does?

          Aha, okay. Steel Path is probably the difference.
