Could someone close that thread?
We can all agree that this is going nowhere.

Whats with the warframe community and shooting down dreams -_-
-
Man I'd totally get behind this. Only complaint is some would say those mods are a tad OP, even with the downsides that comes with this. Also the mechanics are a bit overly complicated (well at first glance) and a lil unforgiving...But i like, especially those minor buffs :D
Edit: Maybe separate the ups and downs?

Doesn't every game need some noob weapons? I mean it's vor ...

The real problem that we have to address is not press 4 to win frames but something that has been plaguing warframe for a while now. Three letters, R N G. Before loki systems were added to t3 sab I was there running draco religiously for those t4 def keys. Rng makes warframe a grind and for many players press 4 to win is the only way of getting through the grind in order to getthe stuff they want.
In relation to the tactical alert currently on console, it drops buzzkill. So of course your going to get a lot of high level players speedrunning the mission with press 4 to win frames in order to get those rare drops. Its not the players fault DE decided to put the drop chance so low you dont get a single slash mod after 71 runs (rngesus hates me).
Totally going off topic here, but it took my 20 runs to get a maim...then 99 runs to get a buzz kill lol. Which is another good reason why some of these so called "god frames" are needed. You could argue that rng is a bad thing, but you're forgetting this is an mmorpg. Not to mention that a lot of these mods need to stay rare, i mean they can be pretty OP on the rght weapons. Not to mention the rarity keeps the prices high, which is good for some of us in the trading business :D
-
Might actually be a good thing, keeps excal from being that noob frame. Certainly takes a lil bit more skill now to traverse higher levels. Silver lining :D
-
Reason for saying that use the old stamina bar for channeling:
- should be easier to change (affects all) instead of changing EB parry and channel mechanics
- second wind becomes useful, but not mandatory
- "stamina" mods removed could return
- not dependent on RNG for drops (energy), nor do players have to be dependent on energy plates or other energy sources
- "stamina" regenerates over time, as compared to energy (requires energy siphon)
- out of "stamina", switch to guns, go back to melee channeling after it fills up again
- can actually put all the channeling mods you like without compromising energy usage
Also, I'm an excessive user of primed reach, so almost all my melee has them (except EB weapons)
And it's almost mechanical for me to do RB + channel attack/execute, saves energy and gives a small (~4 sec) breathing room
You do know it's that system that would make a weapon like Scindo for example, more OP as you said. I mean there'd be no need for reflex coil, no energy cost for channeling...but actually sounds like an idea i could get behind, a lot more convenient if you ask me.
Anyway, how long are you going to ignore the whole point of this thread though? You know, the fact that your energy jumps to 0 whenever you channel with EB because of the auto parrying mechanic. That doesn't seem a tad bit broken to you? Even with that system, we'd still be having this same issue.
-
There are two customization options I want for Chroma. To be able to make the pelt invisible while wearing it and for the energy wings to show up while I'm jumping around the maps. I would pay SO MUCH PLATINUM for those. So, so much Platinum...
I don't want to go off-topic, but since it's MY TOPIC ...
What about chroma having a passive of less aim-glide time but totally hovering in the air while aim-gliding ? That would make sense since he has wings beneath ...
^ Omg yes, make it happen DE! Take all my plat!

Do I have to quote what I mean?
Also, aren't you a tad bit too rude, saying I'm pulling excuses out of my butt? Read what you are saying/typing.
Also, remove berserker, insert killing blow. More damage up front at the cost of a few energy (5 w/o lifestrike). Remove reach if you use, slap on reflex coil, instant efficiency buff.
Also, don't ignore the other guy who posted a 1h 20m run solo excal without problems.
Firstly, i didn't ignore him. We already talked on this and even a different thread about this same issue. Was impressive but surviving isn't the problem here. Again, it's the obviously broken channeling system we have now (read the first post). As bad as you claim it was before, at least it was usable.
Removing berserker makes Scindo a tad bit slower, meaning less DPS (debatable). Also not everyone uses reach on a Scindo, actually i didn't even know ppl did (downright wasting a mod slot). My point is it's almost a fair trade off, considerably less aspd and range for 100% more damage (which actually sounds like a downgrade).
I mean dang, how is losing all your energy from channeling with EB for 2 seconds at best not broken? Am i crazy here?
Also it was just a little humor, wasn't trying to be rude. Pull that stick out you're butt bro (sorry i had to lol).
Edit: Your idea about using the old stamina stamina bar, if you were killing guys fast enough you could keep using channeling forever. Not to mention you could restore your energy using energy pods. Alot better than using all your channeling energy and waiting for it to fill back up. Debatable, could be a good idea but not really seeing the benefits.
-
Fact that they released Ack & Brunt probably means they aren't gonna touch it. Kinda sad if you ask me
-
Man that already ruined my Loki's color scheme, i don't want that happening to my Chroma too. Besides i think his scales are already pretty nice. Let's ask for an alternate skin :D
-
Read the last part of my former statement.
Also, your last 2 points. Yes channeling makes a lot of melee weapons useful, too bad they're still unreliable, as I have pointed and tested (max efficiency builds won't last long if RNG is bad on you). Also, if you say channeling builds make some bad weapons usable, then it makes OP weapons more...well...OP (Scindo Prime, EB)
What? To use channeling builds on say a scindo prime or for EB, you'd be sacrificing other sometimes more useful mods for a reflex coil and killing blow. So no it doesn't make any weapons OP. You'd use it on a weapon like Silva and Aegis that really no other build would work on. Man you're just pulling excuses out your butt.
-
I really don't think they want to. I mean u17 was the perfect time to give it another look.
-
Channeling builds sucked since day 1 of its release. Unreliable (dependent on energy orb drops), lack of
efficiencymods in general (efficiency and other channel-based mods), and was tied to stamina (no stamina = no channeling, hell DE made a band-aid mod for this, second wind, a channeling mod ffs)Also...
This. Just activate channel when about to execute, free heals, but slow.
Edit: Imma say this again, make the old stamina bar into the new channeling resource bar.
So essentially you're suggesting to just ignore the obviously broken system people are here trying to shed some light on. Nice. This is why things stay broken. You guys and your workarounds. Also fyi, channeling builds made a lot of weapons in this game usable. It was a legit build type, killing blow is pretty much unusable on EB now.
-
Can you guys please play some higher level content first before you start crying nerf? Most of the so called "god frame" becomes useless very fast.
-
The slot is for Utility mods which no one actually used in the first place. There's really not much of a difference now, except a bit more convenience i guess. People raged at the idea of more slots for normal mods not utility mods that as i said, weren't even used in the first place.
-
These so called God frames where created by the broken infinite scaling, how about instead of moaning about warframes you apply that same attitude incouraging DE to change how warframe plays into end game material.
It's funny you say that when Miasma has S#&$ scaling. Which is why i don't understand why people wants Saryn nerfed. I mean Loki rekts at any level (won't even mention irradiating disarm), while Miasma stops being useful mid much less end game. So between Loki and Saryn, who's more overpowered? People need to try playing some higher level content before they start crying nerf.
This needs to die before someone actually takes this newb seriously.

With a full efficiency build you'd lose 60% duration, but the energy cost should be low enough (~13 energy cost). Now if you are killing enemies fast enough, you should theoretically be able to sustain your energy. If not, energy plates are used. Also, note proper positioning for maximum efficiency (unit hit/energy cost) of your blinds.
Now saying that radial blind is the band-aid is bad. It's like saying that excalibro's skill set is only 4 and the rest are band-aids. You're better off saying that energy plates are the band-aid.
Edit: Just gonna throw this in then...you said you have an unhealthy obsession with excalibro, so imma assume that your are good with him. If you are, then why do you find RB a band-aid?
im ok with the new block, i mean longswords give you 60% damage reduction, and you can channel when needed to mitigaate all the damage, channelling efficiency helps alot too. lvl130 eximus null didnt drain all my energy in 1 hit
So you guys have no problem at all with the fact that channeling builds are practically impossible now? That's pretty broken in my book. I'm cool with the new block but it just sucks i won't be able to use any channeling builds anymore, that's the main problem here. I've got no problem at all keeping EB on forever even with as low as 130% efficiency.
Yep true one hit won't drain it, but remember there's usually a whole room full of enemies shooting at you. In other words, one second of channeling and 0 energy. How is nothing wrong with that?
-
is this enough?
lol
It's not that hard bro. The point people are trying to make here is that it's a broken system. Toggling channeling to block for literally a second shouldn't drain your energy to 0, that's messed up man. You guys aren't really making this easy either, you know. That's why weapons like Synoid Gammacor stay broken and unusable.
(That's pretty impressive though, ill give you that.)

Use a rage, use reflex coil and focus energy. Then use a flow, or primed flow, with a fleeting or something.
Don't let yourself get pinned down by heavys, you got mobility out the butt now, use it to get into a better poisition.
If youre in a high leveled t4 or something it may be better to press 2 and do finisher attacks isntead of sitting there spamming waves.
I personally use all of that. 170% efficiency and 2 channeling drain. Still doing pretty decent damage and all but the energy drain from channeling is still a pain in the arse whenever things get hairy (not to mention most people don't put that much effort into efficiency). Try a t4 survival or even a T4 mobile defense for yourself and you'll see what i'm talking about. I think most people who are defending this haven't really tried any high level content with excal since u17.

Golden sun all the way.

Radial Blind
I'm on a full efficiency build, for both power and channeling and i still have to stop and spam a bunch of energy pods every now and then. Adding radial blind into the mix is still a *@##$. Stop with your band aid fixes.
Edit:
Before you'd only need radial blind whenever things get hairy, now you'd need to spam that thing like a mofo to stay alive. I'm speaking for other excal players btw. I've got an unhealthy obsession with excal so i'm pretty good even without those stuff :D
-
Swing blade->watch energy wave-> hit channel button for like a second->watch HP go full->rinse and repeat*
*Coming from my build that consumes 5 energy per unit hit.
Got a problem getting shot? Take cover.
Also this is why a channeling-focused melee weapon is bad for excal, even with full efficiency builds
So your solution is to go into a corner and hide... how about you go play a T4 mobile defense with that tactic and let me know what the result is.
If you have to hide to actually use EB, then what's the point of melee counters? This is a "melee" weapon. Some of us actually use it like that. Stop trying to defend DE with your stupid band aid fixes whenever they make a dumb decision.
-
Everyone who's trying to defend this action by DE, how about you shud up try using excal in a T4 mission with channeling. See how long you'll survive. I personally still do pretty well, but not everyone worships excal as much as me. I'm okay with the fact that excal takes more damage now with the absence of stamina, but this is just bonkers.
