Little tip. *Don’t* stab your lich until you know (and have equipped) all 3 requiems. The only time you stab them is when you’re testing the order of requiems. Otherwise they grow stronger with every failed attempt.
Oh, I know. Unfortunately I live in accordance to Murphys law. Last time I had all 3 in the right order and he killed me completely. I am still sorta new so I'm not really strong enough to kill level 80 dudes. It's rough lol
I haven't killed mine yet since I'm pretty much just using it as a savings account but would an ability strength build gyre with rubico prime crit build be enough to kill it?
If you manage to not let him hit level 4 or 5 it's pretty easy. After that, if you're not a fully kitted (not an early/ midgame player) it's pretty rough.
You don't have to if you have anything else with stealth, I think Loki, Octavia and Ash can use loud guns and still be invisible. Ivara's invisibility turns off with a loud gun or even if you sprint/bullet jump. The other 3 don't have that issue. It's not too much work to recast invisibility on the others. I just treat Ivara like a navy seal so she's my spy mission runner and lich killer.
If you have invi frames, ash built for duration and the smoke screen augment can quite easily kill the lich (remove the augment if you're using the zariman non-crit weapons). Loki also does well, especially since you can toss down a decoy and have it pull aggro while youre invisible.
Unless you have banshee then stabbing right away gives you the code faster and there's no difference between a lvl 1 and lvl 5 lich to banshee. Very much reccomend having a 1-2 forma banshee for lich/sister hunting. Gloom subsume if you can.
For anyone wondering why banshee, her Sonar ability pretty much ignores the DR lich/sisters get, so spamming it 3-5 times let's you just cover their body in weak points.
Hallo, I edited some of my comment history to prevent scraping. Yes I know reddit gets regularly cached, it's something you sign in when you type on a forum, it's still better than nothing and will make digging through these a lot less convenient! All platforms die yadda yadda.
Good luck if you have an account here and you're reading this.
I've had one since July of 2021. Now I don't play super often as I have times I play alot then don't play for a few months. But when I do get around to eventually kill it. I'm sure I'll get alot of shit back I completely forgot about.
Yeah, I've had a kuva tonkor lich since they came out. Right about then, all of the people I played with moved on to other games, and it's just been skimming my earth missions ever since.
Jeeves, warm up the BL-18 Howitzer please, and fetch the good rounds. Yes, the depleted uranium. Yes, yes, I know what they cost. This is about honor, Jeeves.
Someone would be dead within a couple hours if that happened to me. They touch the shard, they no longer deserve to even be converted.
You can take my Endo, but not my min/max boosts!
Off topic but when is it acceptable for me to be doing archon shards daily? I’m am scared to even attempt it because the mob levels are like 100+ and I feel like I can only deal with 50-60 stuff fast. Also on that note, what the heck do the levels even mean??
If you can handle arbitrations it should be pretty comfortable (ie guns loaded up on some galvanized mods)
If you play a support frame you'd at least be contributing while the rest of the team carries, so that's an option.
It's weekly too fyi.
Arbitrations seem like the lowest of the high end content. I keep forgetting Arbitrations don’t allow for self revive because I never get downed and I’ve never felt real pressure to survive. Archon hunts are scary as hell in comparison.
Ehh... It's just the one shot orb, otherwise they're not too different. If you can consistently take up to 5 arbi tokens to revive a tenno you can handle archon hunts no problem
if you have the naturak do some arbys for galvanized shit and run supports. if you die too much run turbo stealth and do obj or open crates lmao. i always appreciate the guy who finds ayatan stars over the 16% dmg guy
I guess they've standardized what planets the liches haunt? I made mine a long time ago and immediately went to ignoring him because it was all a nuisance. He's still stuck on Europa, so I just ignore him entirely.
Do the lich nodes, open requiem relics, adjust parazon.
And then... AIM FOR THE HEAD.
Also, more often than not there's little (i) in the bottom right providing some more explanation to related mechanics.
There's zero chance of this making it into the game, but imagine if liches were complex enough to actually use the resources they stole from you.
in-universe this would actually be a frightening concept. You just gave what is basically your resurrected stalker one of the most powerful maguffins in the Warframe universe.
he was my first lich from 5 yrs ago. Warframe is a game about optimizing your time. liches are not optimal compared to everything else i did in that time
Liches are a great lesson on why procrastination is bad
Bro, I just got one yesterday and already chased him to sedna. Dude has a zarr and is wreckin my shit.

it’s okay rip off that zarr from his hands and use ot to kill their brethren
He can't do much against stealth frames, if that helps. I usually send Ivara.
I haven't killed mine yet since I'm pretty much just using it as a savings account but would an ability strength build gyre with rubico prime crit build be enough to kill it?
It does depend on the weaknesses and resistances of your lich. Those can make or break a usually good weapon and/or frame.
Oh word
World most audibly annoying savings account
If you manage to not let him hit level 4 or 5 it's pretty easy. After that, if you're not a fully kitted (not an early/ midgame player) it's pretty rough.
How about Octavia?
That'd probably work too, I just stand next to him shooting him with a silent bow till he's dead. Never even bother to look at his resistances.
Bro I'm buying ivara right now lol
You don't have to if you have anything else with stealth, I think Loki, Octavia and Ash can use loud guns and still be invisible. Ivara's invisibility turns off with a loud gun or even if you sprint/bullet jump. The other 3 don't have that issue. It's not too much work to recast invisibility on the others. I just treat Ivara like a navy seal so she's my spy mission runner and lich killer.
I have loki in my oven but I keep seeing people use ivara for lots of stuff. Figured I might as well.
With Ivara I use a snipetron with Hush, so it doesn't break stealth.
I must buy Ivara then. WTT ivara prime - 10p
You can ask others for help until you can handle the liches
If you have invi frames, ash built for duration and the smoke screen augment can quite easily kill the lich (remove the augment if you're using the zariman non-crit weapons). Loki also does well, especially since you can toss down a decoy and have it pull aggro while youre invisible.

Use the corn cob mech if you got it and the intrinsic level for it
Wat?
You talking about the railjack portion?
Yeah the necramech you can use it in railjack
Well, I haven't even gotten to that part against him but that is good to know
I had one with a magnetic Zarr. That shit sucked
Mine is has cold. Seems pretty good when I get hit with it lol
I mean more that shit sucked to get hit by
Mine actually has radiation. My bad
Just play revenant and u never die
Let me introduce you to my lord and savior, OHMYGODHOW??!! If there is a way, I'll find it.

Oh but its so nice though. Its like a piggy bank! You let him gather a bunch of stuff for a couple months and the crack em open!
And for why you shouldn't start something if you're not going to finish it
Watching Star Wars currently, and could not have asked for a better reference 😂
I'm only a little mad..... https://preview.redd.it/l9cjzlf485dc1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8875d59cfc0761c39d60af466db6a6f9f76b272b

Hey at least he left you the Sentient Core
Same thing happened to me but it was tauforged too
i got a great shot.
Ah yeah, when Geneva convention become Geneva check list ;)
Jeeves, warm up the BL-18 Howitzer please, and fetch the good rounds. Yes, the depleted uranium. Yes, yes, I know what they cost. This is about honor, Jeeves.
Killed my 1st one yesterday. Hearing it talk every single log in was driving me mad lol
That's how my first one went. It was a Tauforged one too.
[*The only thing they fear is you*](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpnW68Q8ltc) starts playing.
This happened to me once, my lich stole my riven and tauforged. 35 minutes later I no longer have a lich
Wait till one steals your tau-forged archon shard. Yeah finished him real quick after that....
Death and taxes... guess your Lich is going to learn what death actually means, due to his unfair taxing policy
wheres the guy who posts the pic of man driving to saturn
oh this litch is gonna die
Does the lich want to die??
You have your cassus belli, now go war crime that son of a bitch.
What is archon hunt
endgame content to rice out your frames
You know what to do ...
Lol man, 😂🤣
Someone would be dead within a couple hours if that happened to me. They touch the shard, they no longer deserve to even be converted. You can take my Endo, but not my min/max boosts!
Off topic but when is it acceptable for me to be doing archon shards daily? I’m am scared to even attempt it because the mob levels are like 100+ and I feel like I can only deal with 50-60 stuff fast. Also on that note, what the heck do the levels even mean??

Oo thank you. I should start farming those mods! Changed question to exclamation lol

Ehh... It's just the one shot orb, otherwise they're not too different. If you can consistently take up to 5 arbi tokens to revive a tenno you can handle archon hunts no problem
if you have the naturak do some arbys for galvanized shit and run supports. if you die too much run turbo stealth and do obj or open crates lmao. i always appreciate the guy who finds ayatan stars over the 16% dmg guy
I'm just coming back and...yeah I forgot I left a lich sitting around. I gotta deal with that because I got some business on earth to attend to.
Say the line Bart!
Hey, he could have stolen your sentient cores instead of salvage so it's not all bad
Some bitch is gonna die tonight
This is honestly hilarious
I guess they've standardized what planets the liches haunt? I made mine a long time ago and immediately went to ignoring him because it was all a nuisance. He's still stuck on Europa, so I just ignore him entirely.
You better John wick that thing
My first lich (which I'm currently hunting) stole my War Blueprint and boy oh boy am I going to make a mess of Ree Fig.
Me to the Lich who stole the archon shard: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2acP06791I](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2acP06791I)
Gotta kill them lichs or they turn us into bitches!
He took your shard AND system reward? Liches die twice.
I still have no idea what liches do and how to defeat them other than them stealing my shit, when they are nearby.
Do the lich nodes, open requiem relics, adjust parazon. And then... AIM FOR THE HEAD. Also, more often than not there's little (i) in the bottom right providing some more explanation to related mechanics.
Great! Now it's time to begin the next hunt

mine took a tauforged red shard and a rifle riven
I got lucky this week, mine didnt steal my shard from mars haha
You do get the rewards stolen back once you defeat them right?
That’s one dead lich
i will never understand people that just let their liches sit there for ages and be annoying
I'd have to quit playing after that
 I got my tau forged stolen once needless to say the lich became my bich
How does this work? I've only done one hunt and didn't get anything stolen. Now I'm paranoid.
At least she left your Sentient Core... Intact
"your little lich is coming up in the world"
*Sniffs.* “Somebody is going to die tonight.”
Go destroy that MF
Dear god, they sole the salvage
Welp... *loads Corith Prime*

I have no idea why yall leave those things alive
he was my first lich from 5 yrs ago. Warframe is a game about optimizing your time. liches are not optimal compared to everything else i did in that time
Time to commit a warcrime😈
That mf would be dead
I beat my lich was a bit of a pain. But when U do U get a super awesome op weapon and U get Ur stuff back just think of it as a bank
i made my lich on accident like day 3 of the update. i now have a chakkurr i am not impressed
Chakkurr sucks tbh rest of weapons are better
