Jesus christ, I just finished my Acrid like 3 days ago and at rank 8 (potatoed) it was one-shotting* lvl 20-30 Grineer (*if you waited for all the ticks) and now it is as strong as a nerf water gun. Ridiculous how the combat rank 7 weapon that used to be King of All Rotating The Sun is now a tickle gun.

I'm pretty sure you can trade warframe part blueprints. I don't think you can trade anything that was cooked in the Foundry. I don't know if you can trade Void weapon part drops or even resources.

Kanos posted:Yeah, but it was still a batshit insane weapon with the way status procs work even before they rebuffed it. Now it's like WHOAAAAAA. Naw, it was underperforming after U11 especially for the fact it is a level 6 weapon. It would've been more understandable if it were level 3. Now, if only they'd buff Ignis to be closer to its former self so I could kill Infested with it faster than a goddamn Braton. Still have to try out the new Flux Rifle.

Ive hit this like 4 times tonight Is it where you can shoot and use powers but can't hit anything, can't pick up anything and can't even switch weapons? I've had that a few times, seems like a de-sync issue. A few times from that it fixed itself though half the time it's stuck like that until the mission ends. The unfair part is the enemies could still hit me and I'm not even sure my powers do anything.

I find using the Corrosive element is the closest I could get to pre-U11 Ignis and Flux Rifle damage, even against Infested. But since it's a proc, there are times when it took a long rear end time just to kill one. But more often they die almost as fast before. Weird how Infested is supposed to be more vulnerable to Heat but all Heat Ignis kills them much slower than Corrosive Ignis.

What are your strategies in killing Phorid? Thankfully I managed to get Nyx in 6 runs, although I failed 3 times. Phorid just crushed my frame either from afar or by melee. Most of the fights I managed to win is because someone brought a Valkyr and wailed at Phorid the whole time while the rest of us pumped him full of bullets. There's one time where he bugged and won't stop ragdolling so we were slow-roasting him with Ignis for a long while. There's one time where I managed to solo him with the bazooka, where I jumped back and forth between two platforms to keep some distance between us then his AI bugged and he just stood there so I plinked away at him, with the bazooka, until he died, probably out of depression. He's armor type, right? Is Puncture weapon best on him or something else?

Dapper Man posted:On the scale of game reviews, 4/10 is not a fun game. Warframe is a fun game, no matter how much Denzine has little breakdowns over his gaping timesink, god rest his soul. I would give it 6.5/10. I don't get the low score for all the reviews when people just can't stop logging hours into it. Seriously, name the last AAA title you spent as much time as this game. I couldn't even break 70 hours with Skyrim. Even with mods. Are the devs not good enough to make the game properly? Maybe, but do you think a more competent, AAA-minded devs would even make something like this? They'd make a F2P 3PS CoD-lite instead with tons of microtransactions. Or maybe I'm just jaded after a year's abuse at the hands of PGI's Mechwarrior Online. DE looks like geniuses compared to PGI. AT the very least they do not blatantly and proudly show utter contempt of their own player base.

I'll be happy if they just add more mission types. Like, make it more interactive and dynamic by having you select which path you're going to take (after hacking a terminal) and affect the environment. For instance, make sub-bosses that are tough to take down because they have a ton of shield, but you can first go to the atmosphere control room, kill the guards there and hack or destroy the control, dropping the temperature to sub-zero thus ruining everyone's shields. Or you noticed there's a lab with technocyte virus being researched. Sabotage that and unleashed the Infested on the guards (that you might have to kill too). They could also add *optional* side missions that are generated randomly, for rare drops. Just like Stalker, who is a random side mission (though not optional).

If I were to fix Nekros, I would alter his abilities slightly: 1. Soul Punch would "prime" a target, kinda like a single Molecular Prime, sans the damage bonus and slow, but applies a set damage if the target did not die right out. When the target dies, it explodes and damages the surrounding enemies (not as much as MPrime). 2. Terrify is pretty useless. Either make it an AoE damage bonus and slow, or add a component like Decoy where the enemy would aggro a false target, but indestructible unlike Decoy. 3. Desecrate is as Desecrate does. 4. Shadows of the Dead: just make them intangible to NPCs, like our warframes to other players to lessen pathing issues. Better enemies killed should replace shittier enemies. Or ignore poo poo enemies outright, like rollers and runners. Or one possibility is also they explode when they die. So even if you summoned 7 useless pets, they could still jihad on the enemies.

Here's a trick to kill Jackal fast: bring a Mag with Polarize skill. Use it when Jackal started, thus removing his shield. Shoot his body (not his legs) until he dies. Anything with high DPS, preferably specced with Magnetic damage, works. I have used Burston (non-potatoed even), Braton, Hind. Soma (potatoed) is also OP for this since I could just in front of his face and kills him in 2 seconds flat. He dies even before his gun could go through my Mag's shield. Haven't tried this with Hyena though.

You always get 1 part blueprint from the boss so you could be anywhere from 2 to 30 runs on getting the last two parts you need. Nowadays, the most boss runs I had done to get all the parts is 11. Before the change, when blueprints is an actual drop that even has a good chance of not dropping, I farmed Jackal at least 30 times.

Denzine posted:Fixing the zorenjump would be fine as long as they introduce a rough equivalent to the game. Like another equip with its own slots etc that gives you a ninja boost or whatever. They should give zorencoptering ability to all daggers and dual daggers. Longswords get bullet and melee blocking ability with less blocking percentage when more than one enemy is attacking you. Also upped their damage to be close to dual wield weapons. Bigger weapons hit more targets, hits harder but slower, and not good at blocking. It's logical if small weapons makes you go faster or at least more agile. Longswords should have more defense while bigger weapons are more offensive.

Spiritus Nox posted:So I've heard good things about this game from idle web chatter, but the few major outlets I've seen review this have been pretty harsh. Anyone care to share why these bad reviews are/aren't bullshit and what I should expect if I get into this game? Once the shiny coating wore off, you'll find the game to be shallow and lacking. However, the shoot-and-slash portion is very, very fun. It's easy enough to do but at the same time there's a hint of challenge that would keep you falling asleep on the keyboard. The style and presentation is great that it's not boring to look at since nothing else looking like this exists on the market. It's also buggy and unbalanced but while you may rage and whine at their design choices, they kept churning out new things and attempt to add more meat to the bone that the effort warrants a commendation. Like I said before: the game is like FPS Bejewelled. Everything about it is shallow and less demanding than Tetris but exploding jewels/spacemans never gets old.

Boltor is freaking awesome now with the latest buff. The bullets travel at a good speed now, at least for me personally, that I can aim and shoot targets that are moving, unlike before. It's my weapon of choice in killing Grineer now so I can reserve the Soma for mowing down bosses. Also, I was actually able to kill the Stalker. Of course, loving pubbies ran off to do whatever the gently caress even after I announced in chat Stalker is after me. I just ran in circles since he kept cancelling my Ash's invis while dropping grenades from the Penta and igniting them on top of him. I was actually surprised he didn't one shot my lvl 20ish Ash, maybe he got a bit of damage nerf? My Corpus allies then showed up and Stalker went into Nyx's bullet sponge power. I stayed the gently caress away while dropping 5 grenades under him. He blew up all of the Corpus then I blew him up. Strangely, he seemed to actually fell down dead instead of going into sitting position and disappearing. Didn't drop Despair BP. Figures.

Not that I'm hoping DE would change Damage 2.0 *again*, but it's weird logic that radiation is giving bonus damage to robotics. Why would robots care about radiation? I guess they could make Infested being strong against radiation since they're magic space monsters. Confusion is also a weird thing as a proc, if anything it should've been a DoT proc on the target and their close by allies. Viral or toxin would be better as a confusion proc.

They did say they're revamping the new player experience/tutorial. If anything, they could make the tutorial mission in smaller, less messed up Derelict stage. Give them MK-1 with few bullets so they'd have to switch to use the Lato. After the tutorial is finished, give them a blueprint for Braton, that only requires Ferrite or the usual drops in Mercury. Then make them earn the resources for playing a few levels of Mercury. Then you can teach them how to use the Foundry.Kanos posted:Holy poo poo, Ash isn't even close to the worst frame while Nekros exists. Ash is a relatively tanky warframe with above average move speed and an invisibility button. That's really all that needs to be said. You could remove all three of his other abilities and he would still be pretty loving solid. Yeah, his invis doesn't last quite as long as Loki's and he's not quite as fast, but in return he's more than twice as durable. His other skills range from okay(Shuriken, Bladestorm) to bad(teleport), but he's no worse off than any other middle of the road warframe and he's certainly not bad, jesus. He's perfectly fine if you want to play a fast invisible dude but don't want to have 500 shields with a max redirection. Ash is my favorite Warframe and I'm slowly Forma-ing him to max out everything. The only reason is because he's so loving ninja. If you're playing this game other than for poo poo and giggles at being a space ninja and instead min-max everything, you're doing it sub-optimally. I see a truckload of enemy, I yell "Time to get stylish", press 4 and make one-liners every time he stabs someone in the face. If he gets bored waiting for someone at extraction, he'd make a facepalm and then doing taichi poo poo. Because he's a space ninja. You can keep your overpowered fatfuck and anime nuclear schoolgirl. I'm a goddamn space ninja and I'm too cool for your min-maxing.

Synathaesia posted:Running Alad V with pubbies is one of the worst things I've ever had to do. Either they all just hop on Zanuka from the start, or they focus on Alad V himself until he is downed and regens repeatedly; meanwhile, they're all just taking tons of damage from all the other mobs spawning. Last run, I had 28 revives from my teammates going down so often. See, players asking for more complex boss fights will just end up segregating the community: those with good teammates and those who are crying pubbies. Any time I'm on Alad V, seems like I'm the only one dealing with the loving laser gun drones floating outside the arena and actually fighting Zanuka. I always brought Frost Prime and fought Zanuka inside the snow bubble where I am safe from the drones and Zanuka is slowed to hell. The pubbies just stood there pumping bullets into Alad V. Most of the population cannot process anything more complex than "find target, stand there and shoot forever".

The bow appears to be quite niche. I made Paris and Cernos and have the BP for Dread but I couldn't even level one of them past 7 because the damage is dismal without getting properly modded. Even with Thunderbolt it still takes forever to kill things unless maybe if you're super good at headshots? But it felt like limiting yourself by adding a challenge. It would've been better if the ammo is easier to get and you have a higher cap. It was slightly better when it was armor ignore pre-damage 2.0 but now it just felt underpowered. And one of my my pet peeves is random players who brought a bow to an Infested mission. At least bring a Brakk or Embolist you lazy tards!!

Mag has the best first ability in the game. She could clear up entire enemy mob in front of her. It's as good as the best ultimates of other frames. Her second ability, Shield Polarize, makes Corpus cry like a bitch as their gimmick of using shield drones is backfiring. Even when fighting Infested who don't have shields, you could still use Shield Polarize to heal your shield and your teams'. Nova is the one you want if you wanted to clear the entirety of your vision of mobs in a second. Her ultimate is objectively the strongest nuke in the game. It slows the enemies down, makes them take more damage and when they die, they explode, creating a cascade of explosions. Her other abilities range from "meh" to "this doesn't work properly". Trinity I have no personal experience with, yet. But I have never seen one dying even when mobbed and the team also survives a hell of a lot better unless they moved too far away from her. ;EFB

I couldn't get into the Bronco. Maybe Dual Broncos would be better though since the difference between Viper and Twin Vipers is like night and day. Don't get a single Viper btw, it's rather frustrating. Vasto is great. I always bring that (or the Magnus, now) whenever I use a short range primary. It's very accurate, hits like a truck and fast reload. I've heard Dual Vastos is also great but there's supposed to be a drop in accuracy. Personally I would go with the Boltor. It's very good now even with the armor change. It was great before because of its armor ignore, then crap when they changed armor, but now it's great again. Do remember that the projectile is not hitscan though. As for the Hind, I'm not digging its look, especially since my "realistic, boomy sound, military rifle" itch is getting nicely scratched by the Karak. I wouldn't recommend a bow until you got a ton of damage mods. If you enjoy Braton and want more of the same, Burston is pretty good.

I had a successful Cicero in first try with 3 other people, who are not that great. But one of them had an Ogris so he could kill off all the Grineer squads far away before they got close. I spent most of the 30 minutes just hanging around the injector, occasionally put up a globe around it when some Grineer managed to slipped through. The other 2 members were a non-factor. Near the end all 3 of them managed to get killed because they were trying to grab mods. I had to go in and saved them. Being Frost with a Penta against Grineer sure is a thing. The mission is quite easy but you'll need someone with an Ogris, and a Frost. Penta sure helps too.

It's pretty obvious it's because they're dumb. Giving us weapons that are overpowered and underpowered as gently caress while nerfing and buffing weapons that used to be overpowered back and forth shows they have little clue how the players are playing their game. It's like a bunch of writers making up stuff that sounds cool on paper but gave no poo poo how they actually play in-game. They're also not trying to monetize every single thing, unlike Piranha Games who just announced they're going to add levels to Mechwarrior Online, practically padding out existing contents behind even more grind and selling gold skins for $500 a pop (no, I did not typo a zero in there). DE, most likely got too many idea-men, piling up features while their programmers are not that good, or the engine is not as good as they thought. Like Piranha, DE is also lovely about forecasting the effects of any changes they made. But at least unlike Piranha, DE actually listens to their fans, even if they're slow on some things. Piranha is practically deaf to anyone except their echo chamber.

A warframe slot is 20 plat, a potato is also 20 plat so the 75 plat is actually only 35 plat, which is like, what, $1.75? Excalibur and Volt are great values for this because of the pain of collecting their parts. Loki is also worth it but Hyena is a much easier kill than Ambulas and whatever the gently caress you have to do to get Volt's now. I was expecting them to make J3 Golem as a sub-boss for the Infestation maps, but for some reason they don't do that.

A funny glitch with Oberon: apparently if you used your heal power at the right moment before you died, you got somewhat revived, but is unable to change your posture from the bleed-out posture, even as you're able to use your powers and your main weapon. So you're like this infant warframe that slowly scooches around on the floor on his butt.

Ignis was crap at the beginning because it worked like a regular rifle except with fire effects so if you were burning something in front of you, the horde behind it didn't get hit. So they made the cone much bigger and bypass any obstacle so now we're burning everything in our field of vision. Dera is slightly better now that Grineer is weak against it (like with most Corpus weapons) but the slow projectile is still rear end. Penta is so drat godly that I'm afraid of Forma-ing it any further since it might get the nerf bat.

The jadeleaf plants could spawn somewhere in the middle of the map but it's much, much, muuuuch less time consuming to roll the dice on the first garden. It's at least 10 minutes if you try to clear the map versus, what, 30 seconds of scanning the first garden and restarting if no jadeleaf is found. In short, it's a shittily designed event that you have to cheat to avoid the mind-numbing needless grind.

Fuzz posted:Also grabbed a Volt off the store, which gives me something else to level when I'm done with Ash... about to start building an Ignis, and my Vasto should be ready soon... is making a Bolto worth the effort? I still have my Lato kicking around just for that, but after maxing my Boltor and not liking it very much, I kind of have no interest in going the Akbolto route... how does it actually measure up? And should I bother going Dual Vastos, and if I do do I need to buy another Vasto Blueprint to make another one? It seems like my blueprints get used up every time I build something, which seems sort of retarded, particularly since money is my limiting factor lately. Bolto is outclassed by Vasto and Magnus. Akvasto is also superior to Akbolto. Bolto used to be pretty swell when it had armor piercing which is no longer the case with Damage 2.X. Bolto has pretty sweet sound though, that and pinning enemies to walls. Other than that, its non-hitscan can be a bit annoying. Synapse can be the biggest single target DPS weapon. But it's short range. Dual Ether and Dual Heatsword seems like a matter of preference. Heat sword types have a pretty nifty ground slam attack though, even the dagger version. Dual Fang is great if you like to see your dude slashing about like an epileptic. I have never used the Dark types but I can assume they're as underwhelming as the rest. If you're desperate for melee weapon, you could try the Obex or Kogake for a change of pace. And by that I mean kicking boxes like a boss.

madpanda posted:I haven't heard the Magnus but Bolto's main advantage is that it sounds pretty good firing. Vastos are kind of underwhelming. The Magnus sounds even wimpier than the Vasto. It's annoying because the Vasto looks like a goddamn Dirty Harry magnum pistol so it should've sounded with a lot of 'boom'. The Magnus is also implied as a heavy caliber weapon and instead it sounded like a 'phsh'. I don't think Damage 2.X a failure. If your expectation is a balanced game with great depth in customization then yeah, sure, Damage 2.X has failed. But so far no one could come up with anything to reach the balance utopia without overhauling the entire game, which will piss off everyone. The current damage system is a small yet still a step forward from the previous one. Serration is still the must-have mod, sure, but Piercing Hit is no longer a requirement. Someone who said DE is being like Riot Games by pumping out content before focusing on balance is correct. Content is important if they wanted to have existing players keep playing and to entice older players to come back. The more the core system changes, the harder it is for the content makers to keep making stuff. They'll need to pad up the game some more before they could shift the focus on balance changes.
