Cephalon Squared: A Warframe Podcast

Our first two-week break between episodes, and I've gotta say... it was a good idea!  There wasn't much news to discuss over the last two weeks, and we've come back to a major workshop forum post! And not only that - details on the Zephyr rework! A brilliant bunch of info to discuss -- please join us for the fun and speculation... https://www.cephalonsquared.com/

It was Devstream week, and you know what that means? Yep, Cephalon Squared was all over it! This week was full of all sorts of details - upcoming content, Sevagoth, and much much more, alongside a bunch of nerfs and fixes set to come down the pipeline... There was a lot to talk about, so jump in and have a listen! https://www.cephalonsquared.com/

Almost 2 months in to 2021 already - can you believe it? Well, next week brings a new Devstream, so get excited! This week, though, saw an error in the Nightwave rewards, which meant that players could get their hands on an Arcane Helmet, which haven't been seen in-game for several years now. As a result, we decided it was a good discussion topic - to help new players understand where they fit int...

Have you ever thought about the Dojo, and how - apart from trading and the labs - there's little point in visiting? Well, we have, as did a few of our Discord users. And out of that little discussion came a few great ideas to try to bring players back to the Dojo on a more regular basis. Not what you were thinking? Send us your thoughts! Oh, and we've made the decision to cut Beginner and Advanced...

The weeks keep on ticking by... so fast! We couldn't believe it had already been 6 months since the Helminth System had been added to Warframe , so given it was tipped to be such a massive change to the game, we decided we'd have a chat about exactly how much of an impact it has had on the game. Let us know your thoughts as well! (Beginner Topic: weapons used to build other weapons; Advanced Topic...

The first Devstream of 2021 has come and gone. We were hoping to hear about what's soon to be coming down the pipeline. Were we pleasantly surprised? Yes, actually! Have a listen to find out why! https://www.cephalonsquared.com/

The year is ticking along quickly - we're almost into February already! This week, a YouTube video caught our eye and inspired us to discuss the current state of Warframe as it stands in January 2021. Yes, it's a little negative, but we try to keep an open mind as we look at the direction the game has taken in recent months and years. Oh... and beginner and advanced topics are BACK (beginner: solo...

Another week, another fantastic Warframe podcast - promise! Given it's still early in the New Year, there's little news to cover, so the Cephalons thought they'd tackle something completely new (at least... to them) - discussing other games and how they might compare to Warframe . Think of it as a way for us to provide you, fair listener, with some alternative options to keep you going during any...

Another quiet week in the New Year, the Cephalons discover that Nightwave Series 3 is finally set to end on January 24. Which got them to thinking - Nightwave has changed so much since Series 1. Has it changed for the better? Join us to hear what we have to say about the current state of Nightwave, as well as where we'd like to see it. Sound of in the comments or in our Discord/Facebook groups. ht...

New Year, New Cephalons? Not quite, but this is the time of year we like to take stock of what came before and look forward into the future. As a result, we review the content that was released in 2020 and take a look at what we expect and hope for from 2021. As a bonus, we also look at what we achieved in 2020 and what we are looking to do as creators in 2021. So join us on this little retrospect...

Whaaaaat? It's the last episode of the year already? In some ways... thank the gods, but in other ways... the last few weeks just flew by... but here we are! This week, the Cephalons take a more laid-back approach, with a relaxed episode focused simply on the current new Operation recently released for PC: Orphix Venom. Put your feet up and join us for the festivities. https://www.cephalonsquared....

It's been a busy week for one and all, not the least of which being the very last Devstream for 2020! DE finished off the year by showing off certain aspects of a new Operation that was released only days later, plus some big teases for major new content set to hit early in 2021. And it's all really good stuff. Get your good headphones for this one, Tenno. https://www.cephalonsquared.com/

It's another special! We had to record super early this week (3 days early!), but I don't believe we missed anything especially exciting. But we still have an action-packed episode ready for your aural consumption! Like last week, we're back with a special, this time focusing on Endurance Runs! And again, we're joined by a community guest that loves to do them, so we pick his brain for some tips!...

We are so close to the end of the year now, and while we do know there will be some new content coming to Warframe before the year is up, we also know that things are starting to go very very quiet... So we're cracking out the specials! It's been a while since we did an episode like this, but this whole episode is dedicated to talking about... Eidolons! With particular focus on how to fight the Te...

As the days tick down inexorably towards the end of 2020, Warframe continues, unabated. This week saw the streaming of another Home Devstream for the year - another one filmed from home, marking more time spent developing such a hefty title as Warframe from the confines and restrictions of the home environment. But as Home Devstream #9 has shown us, 2020 isn't quite over yet - DE still has some pl...

Deimos Arcana hit PC this week, and while we knew it was pretty big, it turns out it was REALLY big. Packed full of really good stuff, including a few surprises! So join the Cephalons as they discuss the ins and outs of this new update, and why you should be happy it's here!

The Cephalons realised it had been a loooooong time since they last had a community guest on the show, so with the end of year coming, which means less news and fewer Devstreams, it's time to get back on top of things! This week, we bring Discord member La Dutch Master onto the show to discuss his experience with Warframe and participate with this week's overview of the newly announced Infested Ki...

If you've read the title, then you'll already know that there was a Devstream this week. However, what you won't know is that it was MASSIVE. Absolutely chock full of incredible news and updates on new content coming to Warframe. Of course, Deimos Arcana isn't too far away, but there were some teases for content coming after as well... While it may not be coming soon, it's all really good stuff, a...

While it wasn't a Devstream week, there was a bunch of news to keep us busy, not the least of which being the release of the final episode of Series 3 of Nightwave! As always, this came with a new boss fight - a very interesting boss fight that had a lot of people talking - for better or worse. As a result, we chose to discuss his Series of Nightwave, and provide our thoughts on that particular bo...

Another quiet week for news, the Cephalons decided to have a little chat about the META! What is it, what are the alternatives, and what are the pros and cons of using them? But more importantly... why don't we like the META? On top of this, there's our beginner (should new players go to the open worlds? )and advanced (tips for experimentation) topics and all the usual shenanigans. Enjoy!

With just over 10 weeks left in 2020, the Cephalons decided to have a chat about the three things we know are coming to Warframe players within 2020 - Nights of Naberus, the completion of the current Nightwave series, and Deimos Arcana. Do we think it's enough to keep the average fan happy? You'll have to listen to find out! (Beginner topic: Nights of Naberus overview; Advanced Topic: Jugulus Set...

It's been a few weeks since the last Devstream, and - perhaps more importantly - there are only 11 weeks left in 2020! On one hand... thank whatever deity it is that you believe in, but on the other... well, there's not much time left in the year, and we don't quite know what's going on within this game that we love so dearly. Well, DE has come to the rescue with Home Devstream #7. While we still...

Given there was another down week between Devstreams, the Cephalons decided to have a discussion around a recent change to Mag's Magnetise Ability. As this was slightly tweaked in order to make it even better, the discussion was expanded to look at a bunch of other older Warframes and some of their... less popular Abilities. Have a listen to the banter, then join us on Facebook, Twitter or Discord...

We've had some interesting chats in our Discord of late, as well as a few questions that made us think. One of them boiled down to whether or not companions are worth your time, effort and resources. The answer is, of course, yes, they are! But why? The Cephalons take the time to address this, going over all the different types of companions available to you. Plus, of course, there are our regular...

There was a secret Devstream this week! Well, OK, it wasn't secret, we just didn't know about it until it happened. It was, as usual, full of good info on both the state of the game, and upcoming changes. Plus, there was a lot of useful info in regards to how people are using the Helminth! We went deep into the data, so check it out if you want to know more about that system. That does, of course,...
