This ability also reduces a weapon’s sound by 20/40/60/80 percent. This ability turns off 4 seconds after you first attack.

End Note: Please tell me what you think of this concept and any problems or format/spelling errors you see. Also, which name do you think suits him best?

 

EDIT: Changed the title, because agreed with a poster that it was too much.

 

EDIT 2: Changed the Title again, because I was in a rush when I first posted it, and changed the possible name to one a poster suggested, because I liked it more. Also edited both abilities four, to make them more unique and useful against more then one target. I Would also like to hear which abilities you like and which ones you don't.

NO, just no.

NO, just no.

What is the problem?

[YauYin]

Giving this title as "The Professional Assassin" made me dislike the topic.

 

Also, "Favored Weapon" is....too much.

There's a few problems. The biggest is that his main idea (sheath, high single target damage) overlaps with Ash. Also, "OMG Assassin" isn't a very good theme, because ALL TENNO are Bad Ace assassins. I love that new players are always trying to inspire DE, but you should play every frame, or at least read the whole wiki, before posting your New So Original Warframe Idea .

sounds kind of like loki

Which I changed- Didn't like it myself, but had a tough time figuring out a 'better' title. And Favored weapon is basically the weapon that comes out with each warframe and is part of their picture in the codex.

I have read the wiki on all the warframes, and I was trying to make another option for a stealth based warframe other then Ash and Loki. And I was basing him off of the popular depictions from pop culture of 'modern' assassin. Also, making a stealth warframe is tough because of how it relies on the principles that ash already uses.

 

I do know that it is rough, which Is why I am posting it here for feedback on what changes I could make to make it more different then the current frames in the game.
