My friend recently got back into Warframe and I’m helping him with missions and grinding some resources like Koumei. He’s eager to use a melee weapon from the Voruna pack, but he needs to reach mastery rank 8, and he’s currently at mastery rank 3. He has just unlocked Mars. What are some good weapons or Warframes he should focus on to level up his mastery rank to 8?

If your friend has purchased the melee weapon, he can actually use it without needing to meet the mastery rank requirement. The requirement mainly applies to acquiring it through the foundry. It might speed things up if he has a clan to get some frames to level up, plus sentinels and pets provide good affinity too! Just check the Mastery Rank page on the wiki for a list of gear he can unlock and grind through.
Yeah, if he already has the melee weapon, he can equip it regardless of mastery rank! Just a heads up though, getting mastery rank can be a drag, but completing junctions is a solid way to gain some quick mastery. If you can help him run the node on a planet just before the junction, that might help him get those done more efficiently!
Thanks for the tip! I’ll suggest we tackle those junctions together.
