How to find the best place for farming a resource?

Every planet in Warframe offers a specific set of resources.

Go to the Navigation Hub in your Orbiter.
Choose a Planet.
You’ll find a circular button at the bottom right of your screen. Click on it.
Resource list for that particular planet will be displayed on the screen.

However, all resources are not the same. So, make sure that you are farming the resource from the right place at the right time.

Or else, in the Global Chat, type “where [resource name]”. It will trigger an auto-reply from the chat-bot. This will guide you to find where the resource will applicable.

Do I farm solo or as a team?

From the first day of your gameplay, you need to farm in the Warframe. The first resource usually most new players come across is “Plastids farm”. This is used for building one of the most accessible Warframes “Rhino”. Unfortunately, the planets that offer Plastids are locked for the new players.

Looking for a solution to unlock the farm? Warframe allows the players to enter any location on the start chart if one of the team members have access to it. So, if you are a beginner, you can find your squad member from the Recruiting chat. The formats used for recruiting teammates are:

H> [Neurodes] farm 2/4 - refers that “I've two members out of four in a team, planning to farm Neurodes”.
LF [Neurodes] farm - denotes that “Looking for a team to farm Neurodes with”.

However, coordinating a team is the most optimal way to farm a resource in the Warframe. So, if you are unable to form a team, farm a solo run, but make sure to set your mission to Private. If you have a desired number of squads, you can explore what role each of you can play in the mission.

Ideal Warframes for farming a mission

Various Warframes and Mods offer some special benefits for resource farming. Here are some of them for your knowledge:

Desecrate ability of Nekros will activate the chance for dead foes around him to drop additional force.
Prowl ability of Ivara will allow her to make nearby foes drop a random item from their stockpile.
The mod like Pilfering Swarm on Hydroid will double the amount of rifle dropped by foes will be entrapped by the Hydroid’s tentacles. This will be activated using Hydroid’s passive ability.
The Pilfering strangle-dome mod on Khora will activate the chance of foes who are affected by the strangle-dome ability to drop additional force.
Ore Graze mod on the Atlas build will make foes affected by his ability to drop the additional rifle.

However, the most commonly used for farming is a team of Nekros, Hydroid, Nova and the fourth might be either Trinity or Khora. While Trinity and Nova do not offer direct benefits for farming. A speed based Nova will speed up the squad and the Trinity can provide health or energy to the squad for a longer farming period. In case, if you choose Solo survival farm, Hydroid will offer you the most benefits while on gameplay.
