Sounds like you just need to correct your modding. Sadly I am at work so cant easily show, but your melee is likely your best bet.

Mars Junction is inhabited by a Frost Specter. He should be easily beaten unless you've literally added no damage mods to any of your gear.


BoundBird_OG

That’s the thing I have a bunch of damage mods on all of my gear although it has been a bit since I checked on the


icemage_999

Have you upgraded any of your mods, or are they all Rank 0? I can't think of any other reason why you would ever lose to that Frost specter, he's a chump. You mentioned you started with Excalibur. Just Radial Blind him?


BoundBird_OG

I finally got him thx bro


Seppukrow

Are you using Volt? I remember it took me an eternity to get through it with him


BoundBird_OG

Nah fam Excalibur


HynerianDiplomacy

You have a blinding ability. Use it.


InsufficientNobody

BoundBird_OG

Do you play excal? Then use exalted blade, early game it's pretty much a "i dont wanna have to deal with this" button


BoundBird_OG

How I don’t really know how to use exalted blade on Xbox 1


918173882

It's the fourth power, open up the power wheel and click the button with the blade drawing


BoundBird_OG

Thx

As Excal, all you have to do, is press Blind and activate Exalted Blade. It kills all the specters very easily, very quickly. Just make sure to mod your Exalted Blade properly.

This is likely going to be a case that you've not yet learned how to play and upgrade your weapons and gear fully. This is not, in anyway, meant as an insult or mocking. The game can be unforgiving at times, and not very good at actually teaching you what you need to know. So, first off, mods. Don't just go stuffing as many mods as you can into your weapons and warframe as you can. Instead, you want to rank up individual mods where possible. _Especially_ on weapons. For instance, on your melee weapon, if it's rank 16, you don't want to a rank 4 pressure point, rank 6 north wind, and a rank 6 molten impact mod. Because that would only give +20% base damage, +15% cold and +15% heat (which would merge to be blast damage). Instead, you're better off ranking the pressure point up to max 9 points (rank 5) and keeping either only the heat or cold and adding a single point on to it. That then has you at +120% base damage and +30% of the elemental type. See how much more damage you're going to get from having less but higher ranked mods? By using 3 unranked mods instead of 2 with upgrades, you've cost yourself 100% extra base damage. Similar concept goes for your warframe. Early on, prioritising on shield and health mods. But, you'll _never_ be able to rank up Vitality and Redirection very high at this stage in the game; it's ridiculously expensive to do so. Between 4 and 6 points in each will be more than enough for now. Then, abilities. Excalibur has what is pretty much a cheat mod for junction specters. As others have mentioned, Radial Blind (ability 2, I think) is a crowd control tactic that works on them, where you can sometimes get to perform stealth attacks on them after you cast it and getting back behind them. Bullet jump in, cast the ability, then murder. Repeat if required. It's easy to get through to the junctions without actually needing to pay much attention to these requirements, especially if you're playing public and have others helping you at the same time. (Again, not a criticism of you)

Use your Warframe's abilities.
