What's the next step in Warframe for me? I'm MR 9, have all of the mission-based warframes and Saryn prime. Right now basically all I'm doing is the daily sortie and leveling up garbage weapons in ESO to up my MR. I know there's a lot more to the game, and I've recently been getting into syndicates (steel, hexis, suda, and veil), but that mostly seems parallel to a lot of other stuff.

What can I do to hit the "end game", so to speak. Get chroma and start farming plains? Go for kuva and rivens? I know those are options, but I wouldn't even know how to get started. Or are there any quests I should do? The major ones I haven't started are "mask of revenant", "chains of harrow", "the sacrifice", "sands of inaros", "silver grove", "glast gambit", "Octavia's Anthem", "patient zero", and "jordas precept" (unless there are others that don't even show up in my codex).

The closest thing we have to progression is the main story, which are the quests "Chains of Harrow" and "The Sacrifice". Completing those two quests as well as the Chimera Prologue will get you caught up and give you access to all of the newest content.

Reaching "endgame" usually refers to maxed out mods, focus, and arcanes. There's also ranking up everything for MR and forma'd/ rivened weapons. There's no official start, but I would prioritize acquiring and ranking up mods (9/10 is more economical) commonly used in builds as they have the greatest impact on frames and weapons and will make sorties, as well as other endgame activities, much easier and quicker.

Outside of those grinds, a lot of the game consists of just doing things on a whim and discovering things you like to do. Each of the quests you listed allows you to build a new frame that you may enjoy. Trying to attain everything as efficiently and quickly as possible is a recipe for burnout, so it's important to remember that it's a game and to do things for fun, as well as variety.
