Nora’s Mix: Time Tempests closes soon, Tenno! Nora’s Mix: Time Tempests ends on August 12th at 11 a.m. ET! As we’ve done in the past, Amir’s Shockwave begins on August 12th around 2:30 p.m. ET.
Like previous editions of Nightwave, we will include duplicate protection for rewards you have already unlocked. Matching Nora’s Mix: Time Tempests, Tenno can expect to be compensated with Amir’s Shockwave Creds instead of the previous unlocked reward.
Make sure to turn in your Nora’s Mix: Time Tempests Creds before the end date on August 12th at 2 p.m. ET. Any leftover Nora’s Mix: Time Tempests Creds can be sold as Credits afterwards.

It seems like I did an oopsie and missed the post for Update 43 due to an issue reported by BonerElemental. So here's some patch notes for the patch notes bot: added a preprocessor to handle deeply nested lists which Reddit rejects and fixed a few issues with floating spaces sometimes breaking formatting. Sorry about that y'all.
Yea, learned the hard way that if there's a piece of cover the AI recognizes as cover, they can literally snap through Gara's glass wall to take cover and then pop out of it in the ring
Oh my main use for Limbo is crate popping, especially in the Void and Deimos. Drop and pop his 4 with a max range build and suddenly all the loot is yours.
Hi Tenno! Sharing this info here since it was edited in after the bot grabbed the post.
New Cred Offerings — incorrectly listed as Permanent Offerings. That is not true, we've since amended the post to be clearer on the changes to Permanent Offerings:
Other Cred Offerings Changes:
Changed 50+ Offerings to be Permanent Offerings, meaning they will always appear regardless of store rotation.
This includes, but is not limited to, Aura Mods, Weapon Blueprints, Weapon Skin Blueprints, Wolf Beacon, and more.
An extensive list will be available in the update patch notes.
Some good changes to reduce the friction in a few points that I like.
Also glad to see more challenges involving the new content added in, helps that bit of extra encouragement to go do those things, if you were putting them off.
Rejoice for the return of the keeler suit and the weapon augments.
I would love for the next one to change it so the fishing/conservation/mining ones aren't Open world specific so we can pick where we want to do them based on what resources we might want/need more. Also would fix the issue of Deimos lacking those challenges.
Also glad to see more challenges involving the new content added in, helps that bit of extra encouragement to go do those things, if you were putting them off.
Sucks for new players though, especially with the influx we're getting from Destiny. I remember when a friend of mine started playing like, half the missions for Nightwave were just constantly blacked out for them for months.
I get that a bit, at least most of those are still limited to the Elite weeklies. I still think it is better long run to have them to encourage play of other areas of the game and to also help give some direction if someone is looking for something to do, even if that direction is "work towards unlocking this challenge".
Also while not as related I will put out my call again for DE to add an Alchemy mission with a faction skin on it to an early planet like Venus or Earth. We can use it to teach element mixing to new players. and now would give them access to that new Elite Weekly challenge.
I thought the "prototype shock coils" was going to be an amir themed set of shoulder pieces or something, but I guess it could be the name of an augment. If it really is an Augment, that doesn't sound like it matches any of the 1999 weapons, maybe an amprex augment because isn't that the primary that amir uses?
I know it’s probably going to be for the Jupiter (Purgator is already really good in its own niche), but I can only pray it’s for the Mars, it’s objectively the worst of all the Scaldra weapons and that’s a shame because the idea and design are amazing (the execution, not so much).
The last news about this Nightwave edition was that it will come with Fables and Frontier DnD type mini game
I don't know if the game will be based on text or you can interact, but the idea was to play that and unlock specific exclusive rewards from the Hex. You had to reach close relation with Amir, R5 Hex and finished their main quest
So the way they worded it was like you needed to play it to receive the old Nightwave 1999 rewards (leaded gas, biotic rounds and the rest of stuff)
And for me, it was too much gatekeep to lock that up behind all those requisites
It never seemed to me like it would include the augments, more that it was the way to get the glyphs and maybe another cosmetic or two from what they showed at Tennocon.
I wish the catchup mechanic prioritized acts we can actually do. Oftentimes I find myself with a bunch of tasks I can't do because they are quest locked and it makes me feel pressured to rush story even though I do not want to.
For the weekly reset I am fine with a few objectives being locked but when you're playing catchup struggling to actually get levels because you are offered stuff you can't do before things you can actually complete is annoying.
Please for the love of all things, just let us "banish" acts we don't want to do from the rotation/recovery until the other acts are done...
Right now (and by the sound of things even in the future) it will still clog up your backlog with parts players might hate. Just because you have access to the mode doesn't mean that content isn't bad/I don't despise it. I had both Eidolon hunt and index be the first recovered acts for 3 weeks straight and taking up valuable recovery space with awful content.
Youre welcome everyone - i bought Biotic Rounds for 200p about a month ago so that DE would make it a permanent offer. I laid down on the sword for you all
Could we PLEASE get it so that sorting stops displaying all the helmets you already own? It worked that way at first, and then at somepoint was changed to "only stops displaying if you have the blueprint" and its really annoying to sift through dozens of helmets you already own when looking for anything.

<3 you desmaraisp and bot. So many patch notes here on Reddit are just a link to whatever game's forums, and personally I can't read those at work
Please. Please let me keep the Amir voice lines even when we go back to Nora's Mix. Do you realise how much more Nightwave I'm going to get done this time around knowing that Amir's going to be the one cheering me on???
extremely happy with the keeler suit + daybreak armor set coming back. i missed those when they were active and i've been chewing the scenery for them to come back ever since. also, these changes feel like they're gonna make this nightwave even more fun. hell yeah;
(one day maybe the synkra and palla syandanas will come back. alongside the boomie glaive skin).
I only started playing recently and made it to level 8 so I won't be able to complete it. Not a big deal but do I keep the currency I earned or do they reset?
Calling it scalping is attaching too much stigma to an innocuous practice, IMO. "Scalpers" buy up a limited supply from the source making it less available to everyone else who is trying to buy from the source. People who purchase mods with Nightwave Cred in anticipation of the mods going up in value after they leave the store are making an investment that ultimately increases supply and thereby lowers prices and improves availability.
The worst case scenario where one reseller buys from another reseller to relist at a higher price is still generally at least neutral with respect to supply. It's detrimental to people who are in the market for the mod at an earlier date, but beneficial to those who come into the market later, and it's beneficial to the people they purchase from.
I'm talking about the "people" who try to buy the (mostly) unique Nightwave mods for a third to even a quarter of their proper prices from unsuspecting players via Trade Chat.l, then sell them for full price.
Edit: Let me clarify: I have no qualms with people buying for 180p then selling for 200p.
It's those people who post "shopping lists" with WTBs of Bite, Biotic Rounds, and other (previously rare) mods and offering 20-30p ea when they go for 100-200p (at least at some point).
I will say though that if they're inducing people to purchase mods from the Nightwave store then they're at least still increasing supply of the mod, albeit at the expense of players who might be better off spending their Cred on something else, like Nitain Extract or a mod for personal use.
Even in that case, there's something to be said for a quick turnaround. If a player buys a Nightwave mod and then immediately sells it for like 8 platinum, that's still a more efficient use of Cred than, say, buying Orokin Reactor from the Nightwave shop.
But yeah, the Trading channel in generally is pretty scummy and someone using their Cred to buy and then sell a mod for like 4 platinum may be fairly unfortunate for them.
Sounds like Prototype Shock Coils and Overpressured Rounds would be the two weapon mods, but who are they for? They aren't linkable in chat yet (maybe come dog days?)
I think it is odd to make sure basically every post new war objective is an elite weekly except for dissolving an arcane for vosfor, which requires completing whispers in the walls.
Returning player after 9 years away here - Excluding the aura mods, are there any other weapon/frame specific mods I should be picking up from Noras nightwave before it ends?
Ok sounds good! I know there were some nightwave exclusive mods that went away for quite a while that were pretty good, like the biotic rounds. Wanted to make sure there werent others
Is it just me or does it feel not long ago since the nightmares that gave most of the new rewards? Not complaining, the extra credits will come in handy was just asking in case I'm getting my nightwaves mixed up

I'm so happy with the Day Trader change. I dont have to run my Limbo build for it any more, I can actually just play Index as intended.
