DrBorris Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Make (Just about) everything a quest Right now obtaining most Warframes involves farming a boss over and over until you get all three pieces. What if, upon entering the first node of a planet, the lotus asks you if you would like to pursue the X Warframe (X = whatever Warframe is normally dropped from that planet’s boss). For example: You start the quest to obtain Mag after unlocking it on your first mission on mars. (Interception) The lotus tells you that you need to do an interception (Augustus) to discover where the parts for Mag are. (Exterminate) Her next instructions are that Mag’s helmet blueprint is being held deep within a corpus base and you need to exterminate the corpus to get to it. (Sabotage) After that the lotus tells you that a corpus vessel is about to leave Mars with Mag’s chassis blueprint and you need to destroy its power core to prevent the ship from leaving mars. (Defense) The next mission is to defend the chassis until reinforcements come to assist in extracting the chassis blueprint. (Assassinate) Then Lotus tells you that Mag’s system blueprint can only be obtained by defeating Sgt. Nef Anyo (Mars’ boss). There would still be missions that you would have to do between these parts of the quest just to unlock the specific nodes, it would not be one after another like Vor’s Prize. The best part of this system would be that it has no RNG, it would be more logical (I know DE Logic =/= normal logic), and… LORE. This could be done with every Warframe and if DE really wanted to they could add flare to the Quests based on the Warframe (Stealthy missions/finding hidden items for Loki or surviving difficult and painful situations for Valkyr) Maybe something could be done for the mk-1 weapons as well. Like a quest to obtain the pieces to upgrade your mk-1 Paris to a normal Paris. And with that, not give any experience for the mk-1 weapons, because they are not true Tenno weapons (and not allow the purchasing of them, you only get them if you chose them as your starter weapons).

011100110110000101101101 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I like the idea. The Mirage quest was pretty fun, but I hated how you had to build each part before moving on. I do not like your MK-1 weapons plan though OP, you would be robbing people of mastery XP, and some people really need that stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
http404error Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I hope frame quests are on the shortlist already! Now weapon quests are really cool, too. I can totally get behind that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHeraldXII Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 This would be nice, I for one would love to see Warframe take that path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liminal Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Hell yes. Everything you can farm should be in a damn quest. With a boss at the end. That's a proper time sink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
