I don't understand people saying this is "a waste of time" and "a bad game mode" and "isn't a good endo farm".

Considering the rewards from arbitrations the endo farm capabilities are higher than that of hieracon, where if you stay here for 10 minutes, you will have 92% chance of getting a reward that potentially goes to 1500 endo, and 10 minutes or joining and leaving hieracon will, to the maximum of 2 runs, have a 6.25% chance for 800 endo (considering 4 rewards of 25% and doing 2 runs).

When I write potentially 1500 endo I mean that the rewards can be ayatan statues, and that if they are fully stared, they go all the way to a maximum of 1500 endo. I'm currently running out of amber stars myself, and have only been able to install cyan stars into my rewards, but they still yield 933 (sah statue) with only cyan stars in them (or 992 for ayr and valana statue).

If we count all endo rewards (fully starred) for a 10 minute run, then you would either get 1300 endo (standalone reward), 1425 (statue), 1500 (statue) or 1575 (statue). That would make '92% for an average of 1450 endo. 'The remaining 8% being mods, that you can either keep or sell for a good amount of platinum. adaptation selling for a wopping 80 platinum at the time of this post.

Not only is it a good endo machine, but I (personally) like the game mode also. I like the one life mechanic, where if you die, you die. It's refreshing to be something else than a high ranking mass murdering ninja that slaughter by the dozens without any repercussions, and finally become mortal again. I enjoy the challenge, since there are virtually none existing in wartframe ATM (besides Elite Sanctuary Onslaught and radiation sorties with nuke equinox in squad), and that you gain bonuses dependent on the warframe you take in, just pushes me to use that particular warframe. I personally like this gamemode a lot, because of its design, and the rewards are such a big bonus!
