No Mods No Masters posted:I think it's just a logical inference. Rebecca already wears like 10 hats at DE so getting her out of voice work so professional voice actors can do it is probably a plausible direction for them to go in For a traditional studio and game dev cycle maybe, but DE I don't think so. They have their own VA recording setup and mocap booth and work pretty close to the edge on finishing a feature and shipping it immediately and then iterating it later. From what I've read, they've locked the VA like the day before shipping a quest more than once, and you have to do that kind of thing in-house. I mean maybe she in particular might get out but DE employees are always going to be closely involved in voice and mocap because of how they work as a studio.

Synthbuttrange posted:does it do the same thing in different slots? After playing around with it (and looking up on the official forums), what seems to happen is that when you get into the extra levels, it visibly gives you the fully powered capacity, and lets you slot the mods in, but 'under the hood' if you exceed the true mod capacity for the weapon's level, it will start dropping mods as required in order to make everything legal. So as it stands, fitting in an unranked fury would work (or any 4-capacity mod), but anything more expensive than that will kill the effect of whatever is in the first slot. Fully enhancing the weapon solves this problem.

Normal brain: equipping one dragon key and going in a squad to the Orokin derelict. Big brain: equipping three dragon keys and soloing an Orokin derelict. Galaxy brain: forgetting to unequip the dragon keys you didn't use and wondering why your frames are getting squished in normal Onslaught.

Rorac posted:His 4 is just a wide area, decent damage long duration crowd control that goes through terrain. I think you're doing a disservice by describing Volt's 4 this way. It can be modded so it nukes massive areas full of enemies and is why he's one of the best murderframes for Onslaught. If there's a Trinity to feed him energy no one else even has to do anything aside from finish off the occasional Nox.

Have DE said anything about fixing Onslaught? It's really frustrating to have powers just randomly stop and start working again for no discernible reason. I've had a run where both Volts' 4s completely stopped hitting enemies and a couple of runs where Trinity"s overshield would disappear the instant I got hit with anything causing me to get knocked constantly. The weird thing is the overshield worked fine for everyone else but me.

How much range and power strength is good for a nuke volt? I have 220% range at the moment but only around 145% power strength due to getting the range that high.

I used this build as a guide. It has 235% range and 219% power strength. It's a Volt Prime build so it'll take you an extra Forma if you're trying to use it for regular Volt but it should still be fine since the Prime version just has more energy and armor.

Thanks, my build is pretty similar to that, except i'm missing Blind Rage. I need to do some vault runs to finish off those mods. Edit: Although I don't have Primed Flow either, so I probably wouldn't put it in until I can get that anyway, otherwise my energy pool won't be big enough to offset the tanked efficiency.

Ash - sneaky guy who can murder the hell out of everything with the right mods but kind of a worse loki without without them Atlas - one punch man Banshee - screams so loud everything dies. everything Chroma - takes a lot of investment but eventually you do 10x damage Ember - burns things. good at easily clearing weak stuff mainly Equinox - makes the whole map evaporate by pressing one button over and over Excalibur - can blind a wide area, has a cool laser sword like link when you have all the hearts, all around good frame for killing things Frost - great for defense, great for offense, can make a bubble nothing can shoot through, can freeze stuff, tanky as hell, what's not to like Gara - i don't have gara but apparently super good at offense and defense both Harrow - a weird thing where you juggle your abilities to do a lot of damage or something. apparently a great gun platform, another one i don't use much Hydroid - he makes tentacles and the tentacles make more loot. more loot is good Inaros - he can never die and ignores status with a mod and can blind things. loving overpowered rear end in a top hat you bring when nothing else works Ivara - really cool bow stuff, fun utility abilities, good sneaker Khora - does a shitload of damage and can have TWO space cats at the same time Limbo - we don't talk about limbo Loki - best at being invisible forever, removing enemy's weapons and switch teleporting afk people into funny places Mag - i don't know a good nuker now i guess don't play her Mesa - the frame you want if you want everything dead Mirage - the frame you want if you have a gun that makes a lot of bright particles and you want everyone blind Nekros - chops up bodies and turns the pieces into more loot. more loot is good Nezha - goes really fast, does good aoe damage and crowd control, tanky. nezha a slippery boy Nidus - can never die, makes cool tentacle balls that group up huge areas worth of enemies, all around useful guy Nova - always good to have in any situation, can make enemies faster or slower and take a lot more damage Nyx - good at making entire rooms stop hurting anyone but dead is the best status so not as useful in the modern everyone is overpowered as poo poo era Oberon - kind of a lovely trinity but fun and has some neat offensive builds Octavia - makes everything better with the power of music. really powerful frame Revenant - sucks Rhino - want to never die and make your whole group hit harder? be rhino Saryn - want everything on the whole map to die while you press a few buttons? be saryn Titania - turns into an archwing in regular play. i don't use her much but apparently flying around killing things is extremely fun and effective Trinity - nobody dies, nobody runs out of energy, life is good Valkyr - RIP AND TEAR Vauban - used to be insanely good and is now only still very good. crowd control abilities to lock down chokepoints and make enemies easy to kill Volt - stuns and a powerful shield that buffs damage when you shoot through it, especially crit weapons Wukong - sucks Zephyr - amazing on the plains for mobility, at least until recently when they made the archwing launcher infinite use. still very powerful, has a defensive ability that makes her nearly invincible and powerful cc

He's arguably the most difficult frame to play in the game but if played right you will get massive amounts of shield, healing, reload speed, fire rate and crit bonuses and when Harrow kills stuff his teammates will get huge crit bonuses, constant healing, invincibility and infinite energy. Except none of that matters because your team will constantly be kill stealing from you, not letting you do any of that poo poo.

TipsyMcStagger posted:So I read the Lore background and I just finished "the war within" and honestly I don't know what the hell is the story in this game. Maybe I just need it spoon fed to me more. Am I missing some in game thing that explains more or something? We are way, way into humanity's future. Like so far off into the future that humanity is splintered into different races. There used to be the Orokin, who are for the most part dead and only remnants remain. They were a glorious race of bioengineers who lorded it over normal humans, but they all dead now. The grineer are a race of clones who have been cloning themselves for so long their bodies are breaking down like a copy of a copy of a copy of a frequently watched vhs tape. It's gotten so bad that their armour is an important part of their structural integrity. Originally they were bred as a mindless slave race by the Orokin. They rebelled, and now, they are a military-industrial complex who destroyed earth with pollution. There's the corpus, which is what would happen if a bunch of future dudes found The Art of the Deal and started worshipping it as a religious text. They are a guild of merchants who look mostly human underneath the space suits and silly hats, and use robits to augment their military presence. With their lasers and robits, they are more classically sci-fi. These two races rose up after the fall of the Orokin, and have been fighting for power for millennia, I guess nearly a thousand years. The only thing stopping either of them from winning is the occasional outbreak of the infestation, a virus which hardcore mutates both technology and biology into HR Giger paintings. This is where you wake up. A remnant of the old war, one of the Orokin's bioweapons. Vor wants to steal you, so the Lotus wakes you up (along, presumably with the other tenno) to try and fix the state of perpetual war the galaxy is in. Natah: Weird lights coming from Uranus. On investigating you find out they are sentients, a race of robits the Orokin sent off to the Tau system looong ago to terraform it for them. But the sentients decided (and I can't say I disagree entirely) that the Orokin would only gently caress up this new paradise with their decadence, so they turned on their creators. I am absolutely 100% unclear on the next bit, but it seems the Orokin built a failsafe into the sentients so that they cannot stand exposure to the void between galaxies. Two sentients, Hunhow and Natah crossed back but the passage rendered them sterile and unable to reproduce. I think they led a revolt using the sentients that were still in our system as an army (otherwise the whole 'can't reproduce' thing makes no sense). Somehow, Natah managed to infiltrate the Orokin eschelon as Margulis, the Orokin who discovered the Tenno. Her sterility gave her a mommy complex, so she became the Lotus. This is the Old War the Tenno were (kind of accidentally) created for. The Orokin were barely holding their own with their Dax soldiers, and the Warframes really turned the tide against the sentients, eventually wiping them out (except Hunhow, who hid deep in Uranus). Second Dream:  DO NOT SPOIL THIS FOR YOURSELF IT IS THE BEST MOMENT IN THE GAME AND IT PROPERLY MADE ME CRY AND HAVE AN IDENTITY CRISIS o poo poo, it me Hunhow employs the stalker to kill the tenno, promising to give him a way of killing them for realsies. The stalker agrees because he is super mad at the tenno for killing the Orokin. Did I mention that? After winning the Old War against the sentients, the tenno were invited to meet the Orokin council, at which point they murderded them all, the rekays got locked, the grineer rebelled in the chaos and the empire collapsed. Anywsy. The Lotus gets you to chase down the vulnerability the stalker is hunting, which leads you to Lua. The moon. The friggin moon. Which Lotus hid in the void so that the sentients couldn't touch the reservoir, a place that is very important to the Tenno. The reason it's important is because it's you. You be the anime teenager what controls the frame, aka the operator. See, the tenno were kids on a ship called the Zariman 10-0 which went into the void. There was an accident and they were exposed to the energies of the void. The adults all went mad. The kids got abilities some would consider... Unnatural. The timeline is somewhat unclear, but when they got back, Margulis encountered them and was accidentally blinded. She took pity on them and put them to sleep so that they could dream and not suffer. Then at some point they discovered that they could control the Warframes in this sleep state, which was awesome. Margulis was executed by the Orokin, which was not so awesome and is the reason the tenno killed the Orokin council. Lotus pulls the moon back into real space, we defeat the stalker, and take our body back to the orbiter and get two new rooms to fill with Ayatans. War Within: In which the Orokin are revealed to be absolute shits. Child stealing shits. They had a whole process called transferrence, by which they would live forever by drilling their consciousness into younger bodies. They had a whole meat-market set up on Lua to do it. Turns out the Grineer Queens are Orokin who have stayed alive by hopping through gross clone bodies over the centuries. They decide they want your real tenno body, but in the process of trying to steal it, accidentally teach you how to physically transfer your body instead of just lazer projecting. The Sacrifice: Clarifies a minor argument about the nature of frames & tenno. Ballas created the frames as an experiment with a new strain of the technocyte virus. Unfortunately they were mad or difficult to control, probably (at least in Umbra's case) because Ballas was such a dick about it. Rhino Prime's lore reveals that the Tenno were able to control Ballas' frames, and the quest reveals how. It also reveals that frames can resist, which is why the stalker / Umbra frames are seperate things not controlled by tenno. I mean there's more. There's a lot more. My Name is BYF did a set of 3 really good lore videos, but if you haven't done Second Dream / War Within they are peppered with spoilers.

Zephyr can do some fun stuff with the turbulence augment that makes projectile weapons go farther and faster. It lets her use some guns in interesting ways, and by having turbulence up you don't gotta worry about being shot at. Your fragile little bird bones will splinter the moment that something walks up and actually smacks you though, so don't let that happen.

It has nothing to do with Discharge being able to cast, but the cast itself just doesn't seem to do anything. I've watched Volts in EOS cast Discharge, the electrical ring spread and do its thing, and... nothing. Mobs don't get stunned, don't shock each other, nada.
