I'll start it off with one that really bugs me:
"bleed/toxin DoT isn't effected by armor"
Yes, technically it is, unless it was procced from shield damage. The DoT is based off of the amount of damage that was dealt, which is affected by armor. So lets say you deal 100 damage, 100% chance to bleed proc, and for simplicity sake lets say bleed procs now do 10% of your initial attack. You hit an enemy with armor equivalent to 50% dmg resistance.
You deal 50 damage, and even though your bleed damage is 10% (so it should be 10 per second) it does 5 per second, since the strike was affected by armor, therefore it IS INDIRECTLY AFFECTED.
However if you procced the bleed on 100% shields (you did no damage to health/armor) it won't at all be affected by armor, problem is, this is rare (only situation I can think of is vs tenno or void with shields drones)

Alternatively you can stick to shotguns and let your sentinel have your rifle mods
I'm currently doing this, but there are missions where its better to bring something with aoe and I find it irritating that I have to change my sentinel's armaments for this
yeah, it's kind of a pain, that's why I disarmed my sentinels, now they play a strict utility role with Guardian and self Destruct alongside their usual precepts. may seem like less firepower, but they hardly do any damage anyway, save for the Sweeper Prime.
I used to do this, until I found out that sentinel weapons can actually boost dps a ton. I'm currently formaing the vulklok and with 1 forma it does 5.5k dmg per shot, although the rof is annoying D: but still, decent damage.
Thanks for all the workarounds but I'd really like if this were to be changed; it doesn't even make any sense, we use mods simultaneously on weapons all the time, whats wrong with this? And besides, its a system that seems to be there so the player has multiple mods, BUT it doesn't tell you whats equipped on what, so that would be irritating to accomplish. Imo it's a half-a**ed lock there because someone realized there was a logical error, but that's okay because this is SCI-FI.
No offense to DE, that's just what I see this as.
-
I'm at the point where I only want to use shotguns because my sent is using my rifle mods, this is ridiculous, why can I not use the same mods on two things at once? Please DE change this or atleast address it publicly. I really want to be able to use sentinel weapons to the fullest but there's too much grind involved to rank the SAME mods TWICE.
P.S. I know that this is extremely whiny but I really feel it needs to be said, and I really hope DE finds/reads this.

"fun"
If it was fun to add 5 forma on the same weapon, people wouldn't play draco.
And even more, if leveling weapons wasn't so loooong and laaaaame, people wouldn't play draco.
Or just to go faster.
Oh and by the way.
Third draco thread in 3 days \o/
People don't understand what makes a game fun. I'd go on, but I think the wisdom is lost on anyone not willing to learn it, so I'll stick with that, and believe me, they think they know, they don't, they're wrong, they're just like every other human, their "fun" isn't special to them, they're ruining the game for themselves and everyone else.

I'm sure the age of gamers is all over the map ,
But I've been trying to better understand the mentality of the overall community and I find that's a lot easier if you know what age group the majority falls into.
I might be one of the older ones who doesn't play random matches with people I don't know,
And no offence I just can't talk to 16year olds, so I stick with my clan mates,
So how can I figure out the average age of a warframer ... The dedacated ones ?
Note : I'm an MR 20 and 37 years old.
If I had to guess I'd say on average the people playing are probably 18
Mentality of the community? 6 or 7.

I'm not surprised. Thrown melees still have the "you can't catch me" orbit issue that is probably a year old by now.
Pretty sure that's caused by a projectile speed that's too high.....it might help if you take off whirlwind but yeah it's still an issue.
spoiled strike and no fury should help (I think)
No, unless they added something recently there's no way to slow the flight speed, but whirlwind and the kestrel augment speed it up
yo, they buffed the throw speed or something, my glaive now throws in 0.9 seconds when it used to take 1.5
Yeah, that's great, but it would throw even FASTER (like it should) if instead of hitting the air in front of us before throwing we throw our boomerangs like competent space ninjas.
-
They are aware of the issue, but it's more complicated than they thought.
Alright cool thx for telling me.
-
I want to use throwing melees more but the stupid half-step is so irritating. It does a normal melee as if you tapped the melee button before actually throwing the melee, this results in an unwanted half step that can make you walk off any ledge you might be on, which I'm usually on one when I use the charge attack.
Please DE, change thrown melees to melee AFTER a tap rather than as soon as the melee button is pushed, so that we can use a charge attack without a stupid half step. (and the fact that my frame can't throw without swinging it first is kinda immersion-breaking for me too.)
EDIT: forgot to add that it used to be this way for quick melee before they started adding charge attacks back into the game. It's been this way for equipped melee though for a while (over a year I don't really remember exactly when it started)

Phased Asa:
Asa:
yeah honestly beyond me why they don't use the same positioning....
-
All in the title, no rolling or melee, screen shaking, and permanent knockdown resistance. Maybe even permanent Damage reduction too but I'm not sure on that. Also makes nova prime's jets stay open permanently, not just the helmet ones but the ones on her back.

I've done solo runs on Draco with rank 0 warframes. Draco is nothing special, the biggest worry is getting ambushed by a helion or getting gang banged by ballistas, everything else drop like flies.
Surviverability with Banshee is indeed an issue. For example sound quake roots you in place and it's almost suicidal to do it in the middle of a group of enemies and in reality you would never use sound quake to kill just one enemy. Sonar is amazing, which is her bread and butter while silence is decent and sonic boom is good for a first ability. I think what she needs is better armor, a damage buff of better CC on sound quake and may be a buff to silence.
Yeah people act like its something special but seriously its not
Literally every frame can do almost anything if a certain 1% of the population is using it. I've made multiple buff/rework requests and that's one of the things I've learned. What the COMMUNITY needs to learn is that "10 guys can solo x with y =/= balanced"...not at all.

I always love when people point this out, and then when someone else points to things like Limbo, Mesa, revolvers, organic weapons, Assault rifles, Vauban, Launchers etc..
Of course here comes that generic description of a "ninja", but lets face it guys.. We have little to no idea WHAT warframes are anymore.. They can literally be ANYTHING at this point.. Sorcerers, Soldiers, Commandos, Knights, Archers and Ninjas among other things. We should stop using this whole "we're ninjas" excuse to dismiss ideas that COULD actually prove useful to accommodate yet ANOTHER PLAYSTYLE.. (gasp)
Because you know everyone plays the game different, and has different ideas to enhance their gameplay (isn't that why so many people are against changing the way ultimates currently work in that they can be ever spammable room clearing attacks that require next to no interaction at all?)
I never said we were generic ninjas, we're space ninjas. Even frames like rhino can still benefit from jumping around with the parkour system. Although the concepts are based off (lore-wise) old human concepts, like a hunter (ivara), gentleman (limbo), and chinese deities (wukong and nezha), they still tend to roughly fit the idea of a ninja, which is a lightweight, flexible frame (not warframe, but, you know, figure) that's extremely agile and able to rely on evasion rather than traditional methods of damage prevention. Even our tank frames can do this.
I don't mind people who use cover, I just don't want a cover system because cover systems tend to be annoying, sticky, and get in the way of movement (since they lock you onto a wallsingle wall that you can them shimmy across). Cover is usable as is, roll is useful for moving from cover to cover (I saw the video about sliding from cover to cover). We don't really need anything more and if we got it, it would be a massive turn from the idea of being a ninja I previously described.
That's why I feel strongly that we should NOT get a cover system.
-
We probably are. I remember something about a master tactician somewhere. But what I want, is more customisation. And I don't mean Palettes, I mean skins, syandanas, armour that isn't bundle exclusive.
Also, Limbo abilities rework. Please.
That was volt prime and that was a long time ago. It's still quite possible we'll get him this year though because he's the oldest frame we have atm that doesn't have a prime, with second oldest being nekros. But then again DE like to release primes based on which ongoing concept they like best, rather than which one is the oldest so it's also possible they won't make him this year.
-
Actually this would be interesting, I like the idea of making it DR too instead of full invincibility, although I'd prefer if it were 95%, to high level enemies even multiplying their damage by 0.15, you can still die in less than 2 seconds, which valk would need to get to the next enemy.
The damage multiplier from from keeping hysteria on too long would need to be pretty good, and it can't actually get as much drain as ivara's #2, you have to remember ivara is a caster, valk only has 150 energy without flow (which is not recommended on her)
but yeah, I like the general idea
-
you had Limbo who just sounded insane with his banishing ability and so on
As for Limbo, Banshing is annoying. The effects to it are annoying. His entire kit is just a gimmick. His fourth ability is annoying since you can troll people with it. Plus, Rift surge is just there to be a nuisance. It should've been a passive.
These were my exact before/after thoughts of limbo. He needs TLC asap.

There's no getting over being WRONG in terminology. You either know what you're talking about or you do not.
Plan to be corrected until you get your head out and get it right.
I actually already knew the difference between a clip and a magazine. I just didn't care, just as you shouldn't either.
Honestly, this is a little confusing.
I'm too lazy to argue against peoples ignorance generally, it'd be a full time job.
But why would you willfully want to be ignorant?
I would usually correct people's grammatical issues too, but honestly, its so tiring, I stopped caring. But don't think I stopped having knowledge about it -- usually I actually use it as a weapon (to annoy people that really just need to shut up, or just for the lols)
Also its not that people don't want to be corrected, it's more that they don't want to be wrong.
But seriously, can we get back on topic? I think the older weapons should be updated to have actual magazines or clips instead of just going full pretend mode. (literally, the latron reload animation has your frame making motions like they're removing and replacing a magazine from the bottom of the gun, but there's nothing there at all....)
Yes, there are weapons like the boltor that have moving components, but still don't make sense because you don't insert bullets into the gun at any point of the animation, same with the strun and boar prime. Boar actually has a magazine, while boar p's magazine seems to be fixed on the gun and simply rotates backwards to it's starting position. I'd be fine if it had a magazine fixed in the gun with a removable clip, but the reload animation doesn't show one, nor does it make any sense for one, as it would be jamming it in the bottom of the magazine as it rotates....
Now that I think about it it would be cool if we could insert the clip through the side of the magazine,it would make the boar prime unique from the boar and make sense, since the boar prime's magazine seems to be way more intricate and valuable. (from appearance)
For people who still want to talk about clip vs magazine:
Shut up about the stupid terminology. Contribute to the topic at hand or get out. I corrected myself and everything, so there's no reason that discussion should keep going in this thread. If you wanna keep talking about it, why don't you go make a thread about it in the off-topic section?
-
An update entirely dedicated to fixing the little issues and performance
remodel old weapons so that the reload animation makes sense
banshee prime
more tilesets
more quests
Female Excalibur.
Nyx's model is literally just a female excalibur...
-
Wow really?
First, just because they're old doesn't mean they should have crap quality.
Second, clip/magazine, DOESN'T MATTER BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE EITHER.
You're all missing the point and getting stuck on a minute detail
I doubt any of you would get this upset if I had used the wrong form of their/they're/there, so don't claim to be the white knights of proper language....
-
It really bothers me how the weapons like the braton, burston, latron, boltor, and strun don't have clips or magazines, we just do weird things to them and they can fire again. In the braton's, burston's and latron's case, they don't even have a reload animation of their own, we just pretend to put a new clip in and they magically can fire again. I wish DE would change this it really detracts from the quality of the game.
Edit: Apparently the warframe community is filled with people who have OCD so I fixed a minor terminology issue.
-
Limbo is unpopular too. Not because he is broken. He is not for everyone. In my hand he can do 4 draco ceres rounds solo. X) Trust me Limbo and Banshee are alright.
I disagree. Any frame can do four rounds of draco "in the right hands".
Limbo can do nothing other frames can't do better.
He needs a buff/rework.

Wyrm
Crowd Dispersion The Sentinel unleashes a radial stun and knockdown when targets get close (almost never happens)This is your fault, you put the precept in a bad spot. I'm using wyrm prime and I can say it happens just about every time an enemy gets close.
-
A kick button, something else that will be used for trolling.
Yes because DE would simply add a button that immediately removes a player from the game without any second thoughts or delay.
-
No idea what you're talking about, Helios FTW!!! :D
Really though I just hate scanning, its so much easier if helios does it. Also makes it so I'm the first I know to scan new and event stuff, meaning I can look at the stats and stuff before it goes on the wiki :D
-
Please, we're ninjas, not soldiers. Now, if you wanted to add a stealth system like in Batman: Arkham city, I'd be all for it.
Soldiers take cover, ninjas hide in the shadows.

Ok, mb, it's just toxin damage, bleed damage does ignore armor
