I’m half-way through Sedna right now. I have just 1 Warframe (though I did start building Limbo last night when I remembered I did that quest) and it, a long with my best weapons, are maxed out and either at mod capacity or damn near (still need endo for a few). MR5.
I have a railjack, I unlocked the Operator, and I have so many resources and credits. But everything is starting to take forever to kill and hurts me so much. When I did the whole Drifter quest thing, I choose everything I already used but it was so much stronger. The Warframe had way more shield and health even though I have Redirection and Vitality maxed out on it. The Boltor had a super high ROF compared to what mine has and did way more damage.
How the hell do I get that kind of power on my normal stuff? I know about Forma but I haven’t even seen some of the mods for the weapons I have I’ve seen suggested for maximum damage, so I’m just hanging onto those until it makes sense to use them. Is that really the only way to get stronger?
Hopefully you haven’t gotten too far into your own clan, because the best strategy for people doing solo clans is to actually be in a clan with completed research first, replicate all of the blueprints, and then split off and do your own thing. Otherwise you are bottlenecking yourself pretty significantly.
Yes, you’ll hear about people that completed all research solo, but usually those are players that are already far into the game and are just doing it for the memes.

TL;DR: cut your losses, join a complete clan, replicate absolutely everything, restart your personal clan.
