I chose Excalibur when I first started about a year ago and played a few hours during a slow season of Destiny 2. Picked it back up a week ago and am now at MR6 and have ZERO regrets with picking Excalibur. That being said, I picked Volt for the Duviri quest, and he was definitely fun.

[@Bastard_Cat]

Volt was my first frame, way back in 2015. Although I use other frames, I still go back to Volt as my go-to frame. He was my first. You never forget your first.

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

True ^^ That's why my Umbra has gotten nice fashion from me xD

[@Jayrehm]

I picked Volt because of his speedrunning capacity. My gameplan was this : The faster I can clean missions, the faster I can get ressources. The more ressources I have, the bigger my arsenal will get. The bigger my arsenal is, the bigger my damages are. And this gameplan iterates on itself. So I'm farming the game at a ridiculous pace. Even if my spells don't insta kill monsters anymore, the speed boost + barrier + my enhanced guns are insanely efficient

[@Vikph]

Volt gang, I'm glad I picked the fast boi because he's still integral in my playthrough at 300 hours played

[@mutexgamex6082]

Personally. Id say volt/Mag. Volt because I love him, and because clan requirment (saves the stress of clan necesities early game for a very fun frame) Mag because you require Jupiter and difficult resourses to get her. Dont choose Excalibur as you can get him almost immediately regardless

[@lilien2321]

I picked Mag. She was good in missions and dealing with amount of enemies, but I struggled with killing bosses and get over junctions.

[@strix460]

I picked volt as my starter because he’s good at running relics really fast for prime parts like captures and exterminates

[@Weenie2273]

Volt was always my starter even when I first started the game its just faster to clear statcharts plus he's pretty reliable on any team his state boosts are dope

[@FelipePrietoHome]

I hope someone sees this comment. Mag is the best. Pull is the perfect level 1 ability. Long range aoe damage that clears everything in front of you. 2nd ability is essentially a big damage buff to melt tough single targets. Eventually you will get into ability 3 and 4. Ability 3 if one of the best debuffs in the game. Ability 4 is overshield essentially. But it also does great damage. Mag is the big brain pick. I have all three and mag wins every time.

[@ren880t9]

I like how I’m watching this even though I’m mr 22 and own all the prime warframes and some of the best weapons in the game.

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

Happy you enjoy watching anyways ❤️

[@NotoriousNickNorris]

Indeed. I'm LR1, own every prime frame and weapon. I watch these vids to see how I can better help other new players.

[@Tripledashhh_]

I used excel for my first account. Made me feel the game was slow since I didn’t even have a stance mod for his 4th ability yet. Until I made a new account chose volt. That one frame carried me through MR8 just leveling all the base weapons and easily farmable ones through the credit shop. Finally mr18 and I can say mag is my fav of all 3. She’s definitely meant for more

[@corbo2765]

Its Mag by far in my opinion . I've just made a second account and chose Mag this time. My god once you get the basic Warframe mods, she makes the starchart a joke. Also has great survivability due to massive overshileds and also makes junctions a breeze with her 2nd. Absolutely loving mag on my new account.

[@nathanjohnston9762]

You get mag pretty early in the game, though. By the time you have the mods, you'll be able to build a mag. Volt is deadly out of the box and far more useful in the early game. Volt can force stealth by spamming shock. If everything is stunned, no alert can happen. And shock is silent, so it won't draw in more enemies. Basically, volt and mag have the same starting damage potential, but volt is more useful before the true potential of the frame is reached. Excalibur is hack and slash easy mode. Just keep slide slashing to win. I do not like it, but then again, I was forced to have it as my first frame because my account was started before this game had a story.

[@corbo2765]

Volt personally. It helped me understand mechanics needed for the later, more difficult content. Movement in this game is beautiful, Volt promotes the use of it. But im bias.

[@NotoriousNickNorris]

Regarding the two versions of Excalibur... I don't recommend giving up the basic version. Keep both as they are different enough given mod polarities. Let Excal regular follow the usual path, and the Umbra, follow the Umbral path. (If you know what I mean. 😉👍)

Good points. I picked mag in 2013 because magneto is one of my favorite characters. Dropped the game quickly. After being disappointed by mass effect andromedas multiplayer (i played countless hours of me3s multiplayer) I saw someone in a thread mention warframe as a good alternative to the mass effect multiplayer and i came back in 2016. I struggled with her until post second dream when i could go crazy with her abilities. Frost prime and rhino carried me to the mid game.

Mag is so underrated, the vaccuum is overlooked so much, it makes for an amazing choice early game! needless to say it was my first pick.

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

I agree. In 2024 Mag is more viable as a starter than ever ^^

[@animo9050]

Hi, I'm someone who chose volt as a starter frame and acquired an Excalibur a few planets later in my progression and my recommendation is that you should definitely go with Excalibur, he's just so much easier for everything when you're a new player regardless if it is survivability, damage or quick CC, a great all rounder. When i finally acquired my Excalibur and took hik for a spin I found that his abilities were literally perfect for a newer player who did not have access to all the fancy mods and simply needed a great jack of all trades that could handle itself while they progressed across the star chart, he gives you a good wife area damage and stagger, a great exalted weapon to do damage (and if you put in a small new player friendly investment you can get the chromatic blade Augment which makes him a whole lot better in the damage department) and an amazing CC that opens enemies up to finisher attacks after blinding them. Oh and did I mention he looks hella cool?

[@maulmemes]

If you're trying to be good with your Mastery XP, starting with Volt is a good option because he's the only starter Warframe that needs clan research to get his blueprints.

[@nathanjohnston9762]

You have to join a clan to progress anyway. You can't have a railjack if you don't have a dojo. You can't do a bunch of the quests if you don't have a railjack. Plus you'd miss out on a ton of easy resources if you didn't have one. And there's plenty of established clans that will take a new player, so the clan reason shouldn't even be a thought. But take volt anyway. It's the best starter just because shock is so spammable and long range. Also it homes in on targets around corners and through doors. It's also silent and doesn't break stealth.

[@maulmemes]

@@nathanjohnston9762 You don't need a Dry Dock in a dojo to get a Railjack. You can do it through Relays no problem. (unless they took it out recently)

for me volt is best because of his versatility early on and plus mag and excal are from planets while volt is from clans

[@GEMLESS01]

I'm new and I'm going to choose mag because I think she's cool

[@darrby.7790]

This is the right answer, I also picked mag because I thought she looked cool. The best warframe is the one that’s your favourite.

[@nathanjohnston9762]

I'd recommend Volt. Shock costs very little to cast and takes out 6 enemies from a ridiculous distance until later on. You can spam it forever. It doesn't trigger enemy aggro if you're in stealth. The speed buff is useful for the whole game, and will save a lot of time getting to extraction. Excalibur is boring (and I didn't get to choose my starter because my account is OLD, so I was suck with it for a long time), and mag doesn't have the versatility or energy efficiency that volt has. Volt is the best starter mechanically. Excalibur is for people who want to slide attack all the time. Mag is an excellent caster but requires mid game mods to work properly.

[@soaphazmat]

looks like im taking volt because he is a all rounder and i love all rounders

[@RBRSC]

Excal: Pros : Simple to play and understand Cons : Exalted is the only started channeled ability, and one thing newer players absolutely suffer from energy economy, and supporting a constant drain is rough. Also the EB requires its own resources in mods and possibly Forma. Again straining new players even more. Also while Excal can blind (most) things at short range, thats about it for his defensive abiities so he can be rough from a survival standpoint. Volt: Pros : He's also pretty basic to understand. And he has a lot more versatility then Excal. Cons : He's billed as the damage dealer and he's not actually great at that, especially early on for various reasons. A newer player will definitely run out of energy chasing this ghost idea of a nuking Volt rather then a support frame. Mag: Pros : Mag is the only one of the three that can heal. She also is the only one that has a counter for shields and armor which will become important as a mid-game starts to set in. Cons : Also very energy hungry. And her abilities are kind of complex to understand and/or described poorly.

[@RandomFandomOfficial]

If a new player does their research, and knows what to trade for to do an energy build… Excal’s energy problem basically goes away. I’d prefer the slow drain over a single cast taking away larger chunks of energy. I gain energy by merely existing with my build. 😂

[@Stealth472]

Wish they still had Loki as a starter frame. He was my first frame, it would be nice if they had a stealth frame to start for those who like that style.

[@frst7207]

personaly play until you get excalibur umbra his a good warframe with good stats better than the normal one

[@NoStLinuxGaming]

I chose Volt and I haven't regretted it a single time. I don't use him that much anymore (aside from some specific game modes), but it's definitely great to have him in your arsenal. Mag is a great warframe that certainly requires some skill to play well. I wouldn't say I'm an expert, but I enjoy playing with her quite a bit. Excalibur is honestly one of my least favourite warframes. I don't' think I ever used him after leveling him up to MR30. His improved version is a bit more fun to use, but, when it comes to melee-centered warframes, I prefer the others (for example, Garuda). I'm glad you're keeping your beginner guide up-to-date. They really helped me when I started the game. And I hope they will keep on helping a lot of people get into this gem of a game. :)

Making a new account for iOS soon. I love the idea of Excalibur, a fast moving space knight that slashes everything with swords, but his base appearance is VERY meh. It’s a latex suit with a nose horn. Umbra looks amazing though, looking like an actual knight. Mag has a better appearance. I really hope that Pull and Crush can carry me through, as those actually look cool. Edit: Mag is very forgiving if you dislike shooters, or like but royally suck at them. Pull yoinks everything that’s on screen over to your melee range. Pull, walk forward, slash. Easy. No real aiming necessary. Magnetize helps the shooter haters too. It’s hard to shoot a skinny little dude, throw a bubble onto him, and now it’s FAR easier to shoot a bubble. It’s gun play without the aiming. So that’s one more thing to consider.

[@Orcrion]

In my opinion volt is the best starter when you wanna feel like a strong character the volt speed feels very nice even with just some beginner mods The shield gives a noticable damage buff and with the change that it doenst drain energy when carrying anymore just makes it a good ability to start with And the ult while not being very strong without the right build it still nukes normal starchart enemies that a beginner should face so up to lvl 30s and most importantly it makes you feel badass because lightning=cool

[@somnorila9913]

Talking about Deimos or whatever, is one of the bosses that i got to play against alone as no one joined and the mission failed when he had 1/4 hp left. I noticed that there are some issues with damage scaling. Character is maxed, weapons are maxed, have all the mods available installed, i haven't upgraded any but some that i got are already upgraded, just that i don't have enough for all weapons or too many for some and can't install all of them because of the limit. In any case being part of road to uncovering systems so kind of seems part of the natural path of progression, you should get items from traversing that path that are good enough to let you go further. And to top it off, the bosses have invulnerability times and specific hit zones. Like is not bad enough your character is too weak damage wise, you have a lot of down time too. Making the battle take a lot of time and in some cases the game kick you out and mission fail. So far my beginner experience makes me think that this is a bad game even though i'm pleasantly surprised by how it looks and how the character moves and whatnot.

Excalibur's simplicity is exactly why Umbra is the only Frame I really use, aside from Ivara Prime for stealth. The most "complicated" thing I have for him is the Furious Javelin augment, which is pretty damn simple. Use Radial Javelin, more enemies hit the more attack boost you get for a short duration. Simple yet brutally effective. Other than that I basically never use any other Frames. I will collect the Primes, but I will never use them.

I picked mag, honestly a mistake. My experience was a serious cripple early game... Yes I know mag is an Atier Frame, but she is not new player friendly.

[@JurgenBlitz]

It might vary from player to player. Having a 2nd ability with 2 casting modes might be confusing but I actually found her incredibly easy to use. I've been playing since late december last year, I have 9 frames now but she remains my fav.

Excalibur. Dynamic, athletic, and a perfect aggressive skill set with room for progression. The description given in this video is limited. You won't have any "synergies " when you start this game. First you have to get through the star chart first. Eventually you'll want to be good with hiim. The "Umbra" version has a unique skill that no other Warframe has. Excalibur is the original starter, and a direct carryover from "Dark Sector", which was pretty much a prequel. You can always use your extra (earned) Excal later, to feed to the Helminth. By the time you get to Eidolons, you'll already have Volt.

[@Nienna_Asyare]

It took a while after I started hunting Eidolons until I got in a clan with access to Volt. That said, I wasn’t actively searching for clans and still haven’t gotten the blueprints to this day, but all that to say that you can’t assume someone will 100% have something at a specific point unless it’s a guaranteed story item!

[@tobysstandpoint]

as a excalibur main, I actually really enjoy his first ability lol, also, for the junctions, i found it easy to suspend them in the air by spamming slam attacks, so that might help others that dont pick excalibur :D

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

Thank you for the advice. Hope it helps some Tenno out there ^^

[@blur-moth_6733]

Bro I'm a d2 player I love using mechanics to op every thing and solo most stuff

[@darkthor73]

Dont forget that Excal Umbra is still broken with active/channeled abilities when switching to operator.

Doesn't want to spoiler new players in the Excalibur part. Proceeds to show it later in the video 😂

[@muscadineman45pritchett82]

Pure blade hard not to pick Excalibur even tho u get prime later

[@SuperKREPSINIS]

Can you comolete all gane only with excalibur? I mean i hate confusing systems and etc, and excalibur is my fav since as child i completed dar sector multiple times... And play style with it is what i like, bo overthinking, press and shoot

[@lebaguette3354]

I chose mag for… reasons. Two of them in fact.

[@Jl7-7]

Taking volt ⚡

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

Bzzz bzzz :D

[@notaspy22]

I'm not new to the game but I still whach you

[@TK_GX]

you say for mag to get that companion thing but I need these crystals that are extremely rare only from a place called the void which is entirely locked on my map and im way too low level for it??? how can I as a new player even craft this companion blueprint then?

[@Nienna_Asyare]

I’m so disappointed I picked the wrong frame when I started… I didn’t even know I could farm other frames until like MR7 maybe

[@FlameMaster876]

Which one did u pick?

[@Nienna_Asyare]

@@FlameMaster876 The one that wasn't right for me, however I'd still recommend that one to many newer players but above that I'd say to pick whichever one looks most fun!

[@CataGamingXP]

Starting, Its always Volt. Volt is great early game, while the other 2 don't really shine until after you established yourself. Volts first ability will take out large crowds of enemies with 1 hit without it being buffed up. The other 2 until they get some good mods are going to be slow. Volt is fast, and starts kicking ass right off the start. Having said that, Volt looses a lot of playability late game due to him being kinda weak.

[@tanishqgangwal1447]

I thought diriga's electric attacks did not activate synth deconstruct , am i wrong ?

[@27-nguyencaotien54]

Hitted on mag cuz i wanted some actual challenges Jk, mag is just op for mid to late game all on her own, which is just lovely cuz i dont have to build extra things too much

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

If you enjoy her, then you did everything right ^^

[@Darlf_Sevil]

You wana say on all game Right ?

[@joelananna1116]

Started with mag 7 years ago and she's still my main so ya mag

[@MHBlacky_ENG]

Best choicethen ^^

[@joelananna1116]

@@MHBlacky_ENG i feel like it's between mag and volt and depends on your endgame goal
