when you upgrade the Skill mods they go down in cost
Telling people to diversify their defensive stats on external components is a HUGE miss on this guide and going to actively hurt people. Your external components increase your base stats meaning mods affect those stats. To get the best survivability you need to stack either health or shields not both. Shields in general kind of suck in this game kind of like old Warframe but for different reasons. In Warframe shields arent affected by armor and they used to have no form of damage reduction so they were just worse than health. In this game defense as well as elemental resists do seem to affect shields but every descendant (I think) has more base health than shields, you get more hp than shields from external components, shield recharge rate doesn't scale with the amount of shields you have, and health orbs drop like candy from enemies. Buffing out shields is only good for specific shield based builds. Defense is something anyone can benefit from and should spec into to increase the effective hp they have since the damage reduction it applies makes your hp bar bigger for less effort than using more hp. You should definitely strike some sort of balance when it comes to defense and hp/shields, but you should not be diversifying your survivability by going for all 3. I tried relying on shields first as they regenerate so it seems better for normal situations, i became significantly more survivable when i swapped to health as you can regenerate must faster and more often with health orbs. Additionally when you are downed and revived you are revived with full hp but zero shield, yet another reason to use hp over shields.
I fully agree with yout break down.
The only real reason to stack shields is if you're playing a straight tank Ajax/kyle. And even then skill power ups scale pretty equal while increasing dps.
I got all defense with +high percentages on mods to multiply it real high. I'm lvl 34 ultimate Ajax with 16000 defense so far and 2500 health, pretty good for only having 2 characters at any level but 1.
@@leviknox5567 true
ive watched a few vids on this channel and it's just full of misinfo... feel like so many undedicated channels come out of the woodwork when new games come out just to farm subs and revenue without actually researching the game mechanics.
Went into Dead Bride maybe 25-30 times in public MM lobbies. People really dont pay attention to the info screen to do thr weaknesses. NOBODY was breaking and nobody was removing parts. Nobody was killing adds for ammo or heals or damage prevention. Went in on my own eventually and solo'd it second try
Give it time people will learn
Currently there is a huge mess considering that, ppl just go YOLO in everything. It is very early though, in time ppl will understand what to check and do (not everyone played Warframe or Destiny 2).
I did the same thing litterally a good few hours ago too
jus solo it its way easier
Unfortunately most people are dumb and don't pay attention. Either try solo or find some people that actually know how to play and group up.
So as I played through the game I kept thinking this game doesn't need youtube guides. Then I saw the intercept battles and the forums. I now understand a lot of people need this kind of stuff for various reasons. Warframe is like the PHD version of this game, if you know Warframe, this game is like taking 2nd grade all over as an adult.
Bro lmao so right
So far cant disagree
One can only agree with that. TFD is a vacation for senior Warframe players
as someone who never played warframe, i admit i was pretty overwhelmed at first with all the systems in TFD. Im glad for everyone who do Guides
~700hr in Warframe. My pitch to people is it's Destiny with the nerdiness of warframe without having to have the wiki bookmarked.
Just wanted to add
When you’re trying to fully create a descendant, in order to get the specific modules or parts at the bottom of each piece you first have to get the amorphous piece that will be specific number then bring it to that void machine. In order to know which amorphous material you need just click that location again and it will tell you where to farm it. So far for me it’s always been at the 4 min 30 sec locations in each zone. Hope this helps to anyone who reads it
huge thing that helped me for the bosses, check out which element they damage with and match that for resistance with a mod in your descendant suit. also before trying via matchmaking, try them solo... trust me, it's 10x easier than with the random matchmaking. Boss has much less hp, less tanky and your lives won't get consumed by others that stand constantly in all abilities. If you really can't bypass a boss, ask for help in world chat rather than going random.
Don't combine your extra mods. It's absolutely not worth gambling all those extra mods you have instead of deconstructing them, because you're going to need kuiper to upgrade your mods. You're going to need a LOT of kuiper. Gambling 4 crappy blues to get 1 other crappy blue instead isn't helping you, but breaking them down and getting the resource to spend on upgrading the ones you actually use will.
I am amazed how 99% of people don't full read everything. Example Void Intercept battle. No one didn't read what weapons they are weak to. 😰
This reduces your dps so dam much. Btw stunning beauty is weak to Machine Guns just to let you know. This alone just swapping guns to the right boss fights will help everyone out so much.
Also REACTORS. PLEASE read them and your character skills base!!!! 😱
so to get the 0.2x multiplier on both you need to find out what skills your character uses first.
Example bunny is FUSION and SINGULAR.
Then you can find out what reactor to use.
So example i have *Electric* on my reactor and its *Singular*. So i get 0.4x multiped.
The last part for 140x skill power comes from EQUIPPING the CORRECT gun on your Character.
So Example your reactor will say equip *Hand Gun*.
then you can put that handgun on any three slots you have. Then you will get the 140x skill base.
🔥
Nice didn't notice but yeah that is a bit bad mentioned in game which enemy type is weak to which weapon type. Myself i dun remember anything other than one pop up msg i wasn't able to read about weapon types.
Important note for when you hit hard and the legendary redactors drop like candy:
If your using a legendary reactor as of right now you are REQUIRED to have the specific weapon it says in your hands to get the 1.6X skill power benefit. You need to either farm out a good reactor with the weapon you want to use, or stay on epics if you're playing a character you want to use multiple types of guns on. Glory for instance is someone you may want to use multiple guns on, where as Bunny is definitely one you want the extra skill power over the flexibility of multiple weapons.
Thank for the advice but 0.2x buff is not significant enough to really worry about its just a plus to have if possible
@@Planet_duh huh every professional guide video on this game used my info to better there dps. So i dunno what you are smokin.
Omg. I've never clicked that red globe. Ive been running to these dungeons...
Heck yeah! Great stuff! Thx for answering so many of my questions! 🎉🎉🎉
Great video explaining every single thing I’ve watched a ton of videos and no one has explained it this good. I’m gonna send this to my friend so he could learn and he could start playing.
Best guide that I have seen so far being new to this game. Recognized your channel from ESO Content, and immediately clicked!
No way, I haven’t heard your voice for years, your the reason I started playing ESO and watched a lot of your build videos, glad your still making content 👍🏻
Deltia! Just...wow my man! Love your content on ESO and now, here, on FD. TRULY appreciate the depth of details and level of critical, yet unbiased, relevant information you research and share. You ARE on that whole other level that your mum sees! :P Seriously though: THANK YOU!
Great vid man, thanks 👍
Fantastic content! Thank you! Played like 25h so far, pretty decent for a free to play game!
Damn i started the video and thought i accidentally clicked on a ESO video 😂
Great guide, been running around killing stuff with no idea what effects who and what so good to have all info in one place. Thanks.
Before this game, I played Destiny every chance I got. Not anymore! Just started playing, but I'm thinking Destiny is gonna be on the back burner for awhile. Your info is really helpful.
A very helpful general guide. Thanks!
Well done! Thanks!
Note that with the special reactors there is "equipped" and "mounting." "Equipped" means in any of the 3 spots. "Mounting" means CURRENTLY active weapon, so like the one you are holding. So, yeah you get 160% skill power, but when you swap off you may be below the purple tier reactor's 140% boosted level.
THANK YOU
Oh, see ? I didn't know that. Thx
I got a mounting thunder cage reactor. Is there like a cool down for when you swap off our is it instant?
Instant sadly 😅@@BeyondAIR15
@@BeyondAIR15 It’s fine to have mounting because remember, most descendants aren’t damaging with skills all the time. Most are just hit the skill, then it does its thing, then you wait. So just mentally be like ‘cast all the things with x, swap off for just weapon dps.’ Like I really like the 1 shot rockets for those tough elites with adds around them, boom boom boom, back to my main weapon and skills.
Great video bro I was lil lost now I’m all caught up thanks u got my sub
This is by far the best version of this video for this game I've seen, and I've watched 8 different content creators do their own version. Your content is a cut above, my friend. Well done. Sub'd.
Bro u did very well in this guide hope you get more views and like well done 👏
So I play Bunny in boss fights her Beam ability does decent damage and her speed lets her run across the map to help revive others when they are down to keep respawns in the pool. Revive down players people if they drop to many times you failed the boss fight.
I avoid group boss fights now with my bunny and to prove I’m not the problem I just go solo them with her. Pyromaniac took a few tries and build adjustment but made the next boss fight a breeeze
Awesome Guide! Subscribed
Thank you,I was so lost in this game. Now I understand better.
Greetings from Finland 😊.
Thx best Video so far :)
Thanks for the info I’ve been grinding getting loads of stuff just wasn’t sure what route to go love my descendant but wanna max them out cheers for the tips and on how to manage storage better 🤙 been feeling like I’m missing out on loot when my storage is full on a mission
You explained alot of questions I had thank you sir! Gonna save this so I can come back to it lik
idk if u will see this but this guide was awesome😂im new to these kinda games and was overwhelmed by the amount of upgrades and mods and stuff but now its really simple thank u man!!!
great video! Thank you. Have you got a guide for farming Descendant Glay?
Great video Nugget nation rise up
Great video, thanks for explaining everything! This game can be confusing for someone who is new to this.
That was a cool game buddy. Job well done here 👍👌
Thanks Deltia
also for easy rank up level up all players to 40 and guns you will fly up to level them do wave missions takes like 20 mins to level from 1 to 40
This game needs an area denial character. Support role is just too weak
Thank you so much , you really helped me
You are welcome!
Thanks great guide
A nice succinct guide.
I think that Skill slot for descendants is for one of the three grappling modules you can get and not the Transcendent modules, though I have neither of them to test out, but Long-Distance Maneuvering module drops at 1% at Slumber valley in Kingston.
oh dang i got it today, only ran it twice :o, was running through with my friend lol
@@CrossVariant not worth farming for it in that mission though the amorphous material earned from it gives an Enzo piece and he is a necessary descendant for farming encrypted vaults effectively.
You got Bunny's ability mechanics wrong. You can generate electricity by just moving around. So long as your electric meter is up high enough you can use some abilities, even if you don't have mana. Her quick run ability requires mana and makes it easy to build up lots of electricity when she runs fast. But her electric abilities can be maintained simply by moving around and don't require mana. The quick run and hand shot require mana, the electric explosion and electric ring do not.
He had Viessa wrong too... if you go by her Ice path as making her damage over time then he took the weakest ability out of her kit to base her identity on. Viessa is all about spike damage with an added slow... you use her ice path to get OUT of trouble but she's not like Freyna where DoT is the core of her ability kit
Thank you so much for this video yours is the first one I came across by accident which is really a tutorial. Which really you should do them as tutorial you have a great voice to listen to and you are detail in your explanations, For a moment I thought I degraded bunny's weapon but I never got that. Was I suppose to have done something to get it? I really can't thank you enough for this video. I started playing the game on Sunday but had downloaded it on Wed. but it was so confusing. They really have no detail tutorial of the game. Especially since this is my first shooter game I am playing. Thanks again. By the way you have a Discord. Or have you made a vc room on The First Descendant Discord channel?
Wow! What a great tutorial
Best one so far
Thank you
Is it possible to obtain the same mod at a higher level later on in the game or do I just have to level every mod I manually?
Have to lvl manually sadly
Where my nuggets at?
God DAMN I love this game. I don’t understand why so many people are shitting on it.
Games hit everyone different. I’m being cautious because of the company behind this game but I’m having a lot of fun with the game though.
@@GoblinSlayerZach very true. I’ve heard a lot of bad things about them
@@GoblinSlayerZach they do Maplestory correct?
@@mitchkupietz yeah. They had a period of time where they had loot boxes with a wanted item that (after research) was proven to have 0% chance of drop. They are a known company that just took a 9mill or bill lawsuit loss for such shady practices. Even now in this game you gotta over buy to get what you want because the closest price point is just under what you need, so u gotta over buy or buy twice. Typical money grabbing practices. Game is fun, imma beat campaign and I spent 20 bucks, which I think is fair for the experience. Doing end game or exploring all characters depends on how the game treats the player base and how greedy the company gets.
My only issue is the prices on some items in the shop. Other than that it's warframe with a twist for me lol.
So detailed, thats how you showcase ppl
You can grappling hook an enemy and if you time a melee attack as you reach them you get a cool melee animation.
As a seasoned Warframe player, this makes builds so much less complicated 😂 love it
Thanks Deltia, great guide as always. Still missing your streams! Much love and respect 🫶
thanks for this!! do folks know if the seasons are going to be paid (like destiny) or free to play??
Paid like a battle pass in every other game 10$ also pre season is active now
love the videos, man! Great explanations. I played a ton of warframe and destiny, and virtually all of the systems in the first descendant are from one of those games, but this was great for making sure I didnt miss anything huge!
SIDE NOTE: THE TERM IS "MIN-MAX" not "MID-MAX". I watched several of your videos, but you used this term at least 5 times in each one and it killed me lol. Min-Max refers to MINIMIZING a less-desirable stat (such as defensive stats in bunny's case) in order to MAXIMIZE a more desirable stat (such as ability power/range/duration/CDR). In your case, forgoing singular skill bonuses in favor of fusion skill damage bonuses to buff her 1/4 instead of her 2/3 is another example of min-maxing for the specific application for which you want to use her.
15:13 I'm in the vid! that's so cool! Thanks! Great vid btw!
Great video.helps alot. My question. How foni listen and talk to the 4 person squad while foingvanmission
I only have one issue with this guide. Intercept Battles. They have phases, the boss will summon adds from time to time, you really need to kill these quickly or at higher stages they will destroy you as more and more are added.
I would add the junk filter, can make the quick dismantle of useless items quick.
Deltia truly deserves to blow up on CZcams, I hope this game gets huge and brings you to a million . My man been working hard from day one of eso. Keep up the good work.
nugget nation is here!
I think, if you rank up your transcendent skill mod the costs are reduced by 1. May be nice to know.
should i completed the campaign first?, or should i farm something once i hit certain level/reached rank?, i already got freyna and my campaign is at the dessert now
Complete the campaign first is the best thing to do
Nice.
It was free sooo I had to see how to play it this is a good video 😮😮
Id say check your gear after every dungeon basically or when your inventory gets full.
Even though it says interception hard that's not where it drops you need to click the link and it will show you where it drops thats only where you open the relic
i dont get the shock punch thing, when fully upgraded it increases capacity by 10, but takes 10 capacity? so isnt that just a net 0 increase in capacity except you have a free shock punch which you kinda already had
As someone who played Warframe and nioh 2, every information in this video was already downloaded in my brain lol , def gonna like this game, weapon upgrading is basically soul match and rerolling is tempering, the modules are basically a simple version of Warframe mods 🙂i love watching people new to these stuff struggling to understand it lol ,I can't imagine how good this game will be if it had a trade system like Warframe with the premium currency, still fun tho
🤣
It's just like warframe but with more cake 😂
So quick question on the mods that extends skill range..on the mod it says only works with some skill and some characters skills....where do u find out which ones it effects.??
If u hover over some skills, they say something like max range = 200%. That means u can inrease its range, and 200% I guess is the hard cap. I think if the skill does not mention a max range, then range mods wont affect it.
How to unlock the operations for each map. If I need to do all the sub missions and the yellow ones.
Nop, just do the purple. All the other ones are for mat or mod so more close to end game unless you have free time and you pass close to it
The amount of people that dont at least change their mods depending what boss they are fighting causing the whole team to loose really annoys me.
So a little bit more on the power leveling. You dont have to be the one that gets the kills the xp is shared to everyone in the zone or private instance, so if you need to level someone like enzo who doesnt have a whole lot of aoe youre still gonna get all that xp.
Glass canon bunny 😂
hell, how to solve bunny's past? Ive been looking for it to solve and see what we will happen if i solve it. ty
Can you create a party to play together or is it just randoms?
Yeah you can create parties
One of the Best Breakdown For Beginners F2P 🎉🎉
You can use any unique weapon to upgrade any other weapons unique ability
I can't change character unless I buy them help????
I don't think he mentions that Mods have a "type". They're named things like Malchite and other metals. If the icon next to the cost matches one of the Icons on your mod slot, the cost is reduced.
I didnt even realize this game just came out. Just saw it on Game Pass and it looked really fun and promising. It reminds me of Anthem & Destiny in a sense, more so Anthem. Always wished they made another one. Ive been looking for another game thats similar to those to play, and this one will definitely be that for a little while. Hopefully it has a decent amount of content and is fun. Ive only played for about an hour so far, pretty interesting already.
My fav character is esiemo. I am sure they are going to patch it but I manage to get land mines do 100k a pop. What no one mention you can throw the mines literally across the map and mines are sticky gernades. Throw on monster then boom entire pack is gone lol.
Is there an xp radius? Like, do I need to be next to the thing that was killed? Or does it not matter.
From experience in the Kuiper mines aoe farm, you seem to gain xp while doing nothing so I don't think range matters
All Descendents have equally good survivability when using the right mods. Alway spec into HP+Def before firepower.
Heyyy Mr deltia. Iv got the ice girl , and I managed to get the BUNNY. Skin. From a mission. ,,,,,but. I can't find her. In my inventory. Or the mail box. Or ANY WHERE. ??????? I know I have her. But CANT FIND. HER. ,,, so what do I do. , ,, PLEASE.
Press H and go to Ascendants
im pist i tried to do the side quest to unlock a gun & 3 days later sill nothing so FU devs for making a RNG quest dont waists my time
Is it better to use less mods but have those mods max lvl?
From what I've seen yes definitely as the mods increase a lot more as they get higher. Equipping 3 maxed out gun mods will provide a significant boost over a lot of weaker mods. Looking at you rifling and the attack speed mods
I don't know how you use them reactors. Things. Or where to put them, ,,,, iv just been deleting. Them. , I get tooooo many of them. ,
Nooo don't delete them. If you look at them and then select the 3rd option down it tells you where to go to open them
usually I'm the only one defending the actual target in that defense mission, because everyone is sitting on those freakin spawn points.
In fact bunny can recharge his energy from moving without need activating c, activating speed of light will increase the speed that bunny will move and he regenerate the energy faster.
Been stuck on pyro boss for a minute it’s tough
Using the purple fire resist is a waste if your not running the antibody. 18% of 60 resistance is worthless
I completed the game and had 6 chars. Deleted and started over the amount of items you need and ammo is crap run out so much.
Advice from a Warframe player.
Mods are like the opposite of a buffet. In buffet noobs eat the rice and potatoes and forgetexptic variety, however, with mods, noobs focus on the exotic variety stuff which is crazy expensive to upgrade and are designed to add flavour, not give a strong base.
So dont get wide eyed and blow your appetite (resources) on nonsense you dont need. Dont get overwhelmed, dont turn your nose up at blue mods, they are your base, max them first. Everything else is merely flavour but not proper food.
Hp and Defence and resistances so you dont die. Even bunny can solo Colossus. These 3 alone will massively
Firearm attack, fire rate and crit rate and damage.
Skills.
Again dont bother maximg them all. Build into one or two. The game intends that you make different builds.
Example, Gley has a skill that gives you infinite ammo. Max this so it gets 100% uptime and you can literally spam rocket launcher infinitely (recommend cestigial organ). Stiff dies so fast you dont need the other skills. Enter frenzy, pop infinite ammo and go to town.
Many people make the mistake of generalising rather than specialing, thats not how you get powerful, its "jack of all trades master of non" in a big way in this game.
(Yes I know the original of this proverb, most dont.)
DO NOT only level mods half way as the increase is exponential. Level fully before levelling another mod or you will drastically short yourself.
Again... dont forget resistances. That dungeon boss who one shots you, yeah thats a flame shotgun or electric sniper rifle. Resistance is a different stat, defence helps but is not enough on its own for anything outside normal damage. That all bosses have elemental primary damage should be your clue. People miss this, running around with 50 to 80k defence but still dying in 2 boss shots.
FORGET SHIELD.
Seriously, shield in this game are useless. Hp, defence, element resist. Maybe exception on toon with very high base shield.
Defence has deminishing returns. If at max 40 lvl you have between 45k and 80k depending on character base stats thats plenty.
Eg: at roughly 60k defence, to get another mere 10% mitigation you have to push to 80k or more which starts taking too much mod space.
50k-80k defense? My level 40s have like 5k defense. Is there some insane buff that occurs after the campaign, because I don't see how that's possible. I'd need around +1000% to hit that
@@joshfoss7407
Hey there. I hope the following helps you.
No nothing like that. What you are most certainly missing is defence stats on your external components.
So different characters will achieve different max in this regards, but Ill use my bunny for example as she is considered the squishiest, yet, I can solo about 3 hard mode bosses with her and bring her in group boss fights no problem as she dishes out 1.5 million skill crits.
So she is currently at lvl 30 (levelling her again after doing a mod slot enhancement.)
At lvl 30 she has 3.5K health and 35K defence. This is with 1 blue mod increase HP and one Blue mod increase defence. Then, in the external component slot I have 2 components which provide main stat of 3.5k with a 3.6k substat and another one giving 4.5k main stat.
How it works for example.
At max lvl40 her base health will be 810 and defence 1767.
The external components add to this base stat, which for me is another 11828 defence all in.
The Defence mod then increases this total by 160% and some change
So, 11828 in external components plus 1767 = 13595 multiplied by 160% is 21752, plus some other hidden values somewhere which eventually will be giving me almost 40k+ defence. These are just me working off the top of my head. Basically, external components are adding their values to your base stat, then your mods multiply that by a percentage value.
Essentially, when my bunny is fully maxxed with all mods etc... in I have roughly 40k defence with about 6k health, and with this I am able to solo all bosses up to devourer with devourer being the easiest.
Generally, if by using one hp mod and one defence mod you are still too squishy for the content, you should use a tankier or bring a suppport character because you then start sacrificing too much mod slots to make a squishy character tankier than what they are designed to do.
Bunny should never see anything more than 40k odd defence, however Gley and Ajax can easily see that much. My Gley however, not yet optimised, is sitting with 45K defence and 18k health.
Please remember also, it is better to have a few maxxed out mods in your kit than a full house of lvl 1 mods, always. So your first order of business always is to first max out your blue Hp and defence mods, then work from there in terms of buffing skills etc...

Hi, just remembered I forgot to mention that HP is actually a bit more important than defence.
It is actually better to have 15k to 30k defence with 10k to 18k hp than to have 80k to 100k defence and 5k hp.
@@SomeChristianGuy. Where are you getting these components? Are you an insane level or something? for example, my bunny has lvl 61/62 rare mods with a blue buff of 719 defense and 961 for a total of 5500 defense.

In terms of lvl, every character only reaches 40, and in this type of game the lvl is not what makesyou powerful, its the mods. Lvl only increases your mod capacity allowing you to add more mods.
So for regular external components, they rotate on a weekly basis where you can farm them. Open up your list in the map. Regular components can drop with any main and substat. Recomendation is that you have 2 with defence main and 2 with H.P. or 1 with defence and 3 with H.P., and it is also possible for the secondary stats to also be H.P. and defence.
Components which come in sets, providing set bonuses over and above your main stat and 2 substats, these drop from Colossus. However, these only roll pre determined main stats, example, supernova, Bunnys best in slot components, only rolls max shield on the first 2 components and defence on the second 2, so Im having to get extra h.p. from the secondary stats they roll.
Set components also drop from dungeons.
These are very important to have, if you dont have them you'll struggle. To start, simply equip whatever has best stats, then min max later.
I typically keep those with h.p. defence and an elemental resist. Depending on your character and build, youll want to roll m.p. recovery in combat as well.
To give you guys an idea of whats sufficient to play the vast majority of the game solo, my current Ultimate Bunny build has 26k defence and 6k H.P. and I can solo up to Pyro and its enough to run the rest in group without being downed all the time.
On your website Kyle build for reactors, i think you meant Materialized Phase.
Also Valby name under Lepic.
Will check and fix, we will update these.
those mods were bad - you want to focus on a few mods and level them up. you want to focus on one resistance depending on what boss you doing - and build DEF and HP not shield. and never use polygenic because after the 3rd boss the resistance isn't enough., omg the weapons were even worse again focus on a few fire arm atak and fire rate should be max level as soon as possible even if those are the only 2 you can fit in the weapon as modules level up they compound so the upgrades get even better
So i picked Ajax because all i saw was a tall bull man and...mhm. anyway. 😂 i didnt know what i was doing and now am level 33 rank 7.
I wanna start over...
Should I?
Lol I got bunnys transcendent mod the first try doing that quest 😂
Deltiasgaming , where the hell you been?. I remember being subscribed to you when I was younger and then I remember something happening, where you went away from the Internet or something, but I unsubscribed.
Now here you are on a brand new descendants games. Where have you been and what happened? I was young, so I forgot, but I remember something definitely happened
Games gonna have a lot of patches coming. Some things just dont work the way they are ment to. That probably means nerfs and buffs in various places. All these early vids will be irrelevant in a month or so. Be patient just have fun see what u can and cant do for now..games good enough to be around for a while so there will be new builds. Seems like theres enough diversity for everyone to have fun
