How To Gain Entrati Standing

To gain Standing with the Entrati, you will need to talk to Grandmother at the Necralisk. She will be more than happy to accept various Tokens that you can earn from other members in exchange for Standing. One of the easiest tokens to earn is actually Mother Tokens for completing Bounties on the Gambion Drift, so make sure you chat to Mother if you need to earn some fast.

All of the members can be found in the Necralisk and will have different tasks that you can do to earn resources that they will accept in exchange for Tokens.

You can earn the following tokens by taking part in activities on Deimos.

  • Mother Tokens ā€“ completing bounties on Gambion Drift for Mother ā€“ 100 Standing
  • Father Tokens ā€“ can be earned by trading all the resources found on Cambion Drift to Father under the Parts Requisition option when you are speaking with him ā€“ 100 Standing
  • Daughter Tokens ā€“ can be earned throughĀ fishing on the Cambion Drift (you will need the right fishing spear)Ā ā€“ 100 Standing
  • Son Tokens ā€“ these can be earned by conserving animals on Cambion Drift. Animals can be found all over the drift, just make sure you have you conversation equipment ready to go ā€“ 500 Standing
  • Otak Tokens ā€“ exchange gems and alloys obtained through mining for these tokens ā€“ 100 Standing
  • Grandmother Tokens ā€“ you can trade Grandmother a selection of lesser tokens for a Grandmother Token, worth 1500 Standing.

Once you have enough Entrati Standing, visit Father/Vicor and buy the blueprints from him.

Best Build for Keratinos in Warframe

The Keratinos are odd weapons in Warframe, doing primarily Slash damage and allowing you to take the Vermillion Storm stance. The heavy attack can do forced Slash procs with the last three spins, which means forced Bleed procs. This is followed by a lunge that does 500% damage and another Slash proc. As such, building the Keratino to rapidly work up Combo Meter and do lots of Heavy Attack damage is a very viable way to build the weapon.

It also has built-in Viral damage, which combines excellently with the Slash procs that are all but guaranteed. Finally, a heavy attack at max combo counter will result in increased attack range for three minutes. This is just nutty, making the weapon a bit of a proto-Incarnon before we really knew what they were. A pretty simple build based around Condition Overload, Killing Blow, Organ Shatter, Sacrificial Steel and then adding North Wind and Fever Strike for more Viral should be great. Build into some more Heavy Attack stats if you like, or further range never hurts.
