Can I do both Gift from the Lotus alerts that are currently available or do I only get to pick one?

warframe.market is a pretty useful third-party tool for trading in general. You can look up any item to check what prices people are currently offering for it.

Are there any situations at all where elemental resistance mods or proc resistance arcanes are worth using in the current game?

If you are a true veteran not really, you should be able to handle everything, but

  • Sortie Radiation Hazard: I have an Oberon build with double Arcane Healing, is really useful to help a team out and you are just fully immune to the proc

  • I think there are some MR tests where full resistance helps (like cold resist)..

But then we're always talking about full resistance, so generally arcanes. The mods are great for trade filler (I always ask for a warm coat when giving away some fun stuff).

Best resistance is probably knockdown resist, some people might like status duration reduction, but more tank is probably more efficient anyway.

Magnetic resist arcane sees use in eidolons to prevent energy loss. other than that I don't think so

  1. How do beam weapons scale with accuracy, multishot, fire rate?

  2. Are serration and other similar damage mods additive or multiplicative?

  3. What about multishot?

  4. Are Kubrows worth it over Kavats? Is a Hunter mod build to make a dps Kubrow worth it?

If you don't care about the random resource and affinity buff from the Smeeta, Sahasa kubrows are really good. For DPS the Mecha set is way better than the Hunter set, though both are kind of pointless in my opinion. Compared to Saryn, Equinox, etc. there is no way for any companion in the game to do a significant amount of damage. Just give it Dig, Fetch, and a bunch of mods for survivability.

The other kubrows all suck, especially the Sunika, so I would recommend only leveling them for mastery.

-Accuracy affects beam weapons the same as everything else: in wildly different ways depending on the weapon. You'll have to test it on a case-by-case basis. Multishot doesn't increase the amount of beams, but instead gives the beam a chance to roll for double/triple/quadruple damage, and so on. Treat it like a different form of crit. Serration works additively with same-type mods, same with multishot. I think the only time you'll find a multiplier that's multiplicative with itself is Condition Overload.

As for kubrows, they have their place. It'll depend on the exact breed, but they can give some pretty good utility. I don't think any pet is better than sentinel weapons at DPS, though, even if you can't be bothered to level up a second set of mods.
