== Warframe

https://www.warframe.com/[Warframe] is a free to play action game which has one
of the nicest communities and best developer teams I've seen. My in-game-name
on PC is `chameth`.

=== Damage types

Damage combinations for mods are handled in reading order (left to right, from
top to bottom). Where a weapon has an innate damage type it is treated as being
last unless you install a mod of the same type, in which case it will combine
with that mod.

The six damage types that are produced using combos are:
