  1. Were people having issues getting the 8 Frostleaf you need for The Silver Grove? I may have just been lucky but I managed to get 11 in one run then stopped looking and just finished it.

     

    Also, thanks for finally nerfing those pesky Nullifier Targets.

  2. Is the 25 Vestan Moss needed for the third item in line with the other items needed to craft in this quest? I always found myself either completely done or needing 1-2 more of the uncommon (not the Jadeleaf/Saracenia), after a single farm mission. Whereas it took me 4 runs to acquire the moss needed to craft the item, and while that was just an annoyance to me running them with an armor/life based Valkyr and Medi-Ray it could be legitimately difficult and frustrating for newer players to need to grind out 25 mosses to craft the item when Frostleafs are considerably more common and you need only 8 of those.

    Totally bug. It was fun to enter extermination with 4 Lokis screaming "WTF" in the chat.

    That is indeed the best part of mission bugs, almost as much fun as the mobile defense conflicts that turn into sabotage halfway through somehow.

  4. No, too easy for leeches to get invited and do nothing, and saying "well, just leave and invite everyone except the leech" is essentially telling other players that they should have to work to find a team of non-leech players to play a game when they should be able to open it up to pugs without wondering if everyone else will be afk-leeching the entire game.

    I provided screen shot proof yet You still discredit Me lol 

    Oh well I know My builds are viable and function GREAT!

    Well, you and I both posted at about the same time, realize that instead of claiming I'm ignoring your "proof".

    Also, instead of bringing an Ash to stand next to the defense operative the entire sortie, you could just bring a halfway decent CC frame and let everyone do whatever they want essentially while the operative stands there and doesn't die.

    Edit: Also, simply leaving the smoke cloud up will give Ash some decent CC abilities, aside from the fact that you can't recast it while it's up iirc.

  6. Finally equipped my Loki to check, and strength does affect the damage on Radial Disarm, so yeah.

    Also, just because Ash has a stealth ability, doesn't mean it's meant to be a stealth frame. Ash played the way the abilities synergize is to use Smoke Screen to give yourself brief stealth to use Teleport with nearby enemies being aware you're there instead of actively hunting you down.

    I still believe you will notice almost no benefit from using the Smoke Screen augment during almost any kind of gameplay, aside from possibly non-meta Trial runs. (meta being double trin with mirage CC)

  7. Being able to stealth nearby allies for the modded duration of your Smoke Screen isn't really a big difference in even sorties or other offensive/defensive missions, capping out at 18ish seconds means they can get a few tiles of movement before you need to reapply. If you're in a Defense, invisibility doesn't do anything to help you. If you're in an Interception it can help, but it won't be enough to make a large difference. Extermination/Capture/Rescue are simple enough without being able to stealth your team. And I can't think of a single time that being able to stealth your team will make a noticeable difference in LoR/NM or JV.

    It is, just because You cant play a Duration Ash doesnt mean You should keep saying it isnt.

    I get thru even Raids with a Duration Build so idk what Your saying and Ash isnt necessary in Raids right? lol ok

     

    And what do you actually contribute to a raid with a duration Ash that a Loki couldn't do considerably better? nothing.

    Duration Ash is something fun to play around with until you realize it's still worse than a duration Loki and also worse than a strength Ash, if you want an invisible Ash either run Arcane Trickery or Naramon Focus.

  9. A DDOS is a Distributed Denial of Service attack, essentially you have a large number of computers asking for some piece of information from the server as quickly as possible to consume the connection resources that the server has. Any connectivity issues that are currently occurring are not the result of a DDOS as it would affect the vast majority of the player base rather than some portion of them, depending on how DE has their servers physically located. If they have different servers in different physical locations for the various region servers, someone could feasibly DDOS one locale without affecting the rest of the game.

    So, you want the DE devs to fix any connectivity issues that you may be having, at the same time giving a very passive-aggresive threat of never spending more IRL money to buy platinum. While also asking the devs to entirely remove the game to rework everything, which would cut off all public funding of their game and instead force them to rely on investors (which they currently use somewhat, though from what I've read it seems to be more of a partnership than an investment on the funders part). The reasons for incremental game reworks and leaving the game online while that happens has already been explained very well by Gelkor.

    What relevance did RevXDev's video have to anything about your topic? I honestly don't know the history there because I don't care to follow the stories of people getting banned. But posting a video of someone just running through an empty dojo doesn't seem to bolster your argument in any way. Also, to specifically reference the video, I seriously doubt that DE IP banned anyone as most people these days have Dynamic IPs rather than static ones.

    Ash on the other hand has a positive affect with all stat types being Strength Duration Range and Efficiency. Thats basically offering a negative reply to new players who wish to utilize Ash. 

    Yes Ash excels best a Power Strength soo its understandable to build specifically for that but telling the community that You shouldnt build for duration on Ash just go Loki/Ivara is a ignorant statement.

    It's not the best build for Ash is power strength, it's that the only end-game viable build for Ash is power strength. Stop trying to say a duration Ash is a "good" build, its not.

    Now of course that is just with the current Ash abilities, if/when he gets reworked I might agree that a duration Ash is viable.

    False, His Power Strength isnt the only thing You have to rely on.

    You do know we have Primary Secondary and Melee? You have Your opinions but thats subjective to you only, I can play a duration build and still survive passed Lvl60 up soo what You saying is irrelevant. 

    I have 3 Loadouts and each is used accordingly to what I am facing. I have one particular build I prefer the most and its My Smoke Shadow build but I like being unique and different, if I play like everyone else then I would be a robot and boring. People need to be different its what makes us unique. If You wish to be bland and same as the rest thats on you but You shouldnt say that building Ash fpr Duration is like Building Loki for Strength.

    Thats just flat out Ignorance

     

    I'm not ignorant, the only thing Ash stands out with over any other frame is his 4 in that it does finisher damage with the possibility of slash procs, yielding high damage against almost everything in the game. So since the only thing that Ash stands out with is his 4, it doesn't make sense to build him for his invisibility when either Ivara or Loki are better at that build. Given that fact (Ash 4 > Ash 1-3), removing strength scaling from his 4 will make him useless for anything over level 60 or so, even when a duration Ash might still be around doing a bad job of playing an Ash.

    ...1/2/3/4 shadow clones are spawned, not scaling with power strength...

    Not scaling damage with power strength is a good way to make no one play Ash ever again, even if it still does finisher base damage.

    Edit: Rather, he would still be useful until ~40-60 mobs, after which he would rapidly fall off in usefulness while others frames retain their usefulness until at least lvl100 mobs.

  13. Too lazy to read 17 pages of merged thread, so i'll just repost this because there's nothing dated before today.

    Ash is in no way in the shadow of Loki, they have entirely different purposes in the game. And building duration on Ash is the same as building strength on Loki, a terrible idea.

  14. Those other abilities are similar, but you don't see people taking a Valkyr because of her ability to do damage, its her ability to survive forever instead.

    You're taking the comparisons to far to vague of a generalized list, yes those frames have similar abilities but the overall purpose of the frame is something entirely different in each case. Your proposed change makes Ash and Excalibur attempt to fill almost exactly the same role which means one will be forever neglected based on comparative strengths.

  15. But lets not have another boss like Vay Hek (Earth Assassination, not LoR), multiple phases was a cool thing but only being able to damage him while the face guard was open was a pain, especially when lag could cause it to display the wrong state for some time.

  16. Well, I agree that DE will probably add more frames with Exalted Blade-esque abilities, and I think every time DE adds one, it will immediately be compared to Excalibur. By the same logic you compared Loki to Ash, I can compare your "fixed" Ash to Excalibur.

    And, even with the other changes, if DE changes Bladestorm to an Exalted Blade style ability no one will take an Ash along anymore unless it outshines Excalibur. Excalibur has too much utility compared to Ash (even with the revamps in your idea) to ever take an Ash. It also seems like you want Smoke Cloud to turn into almost exactly a Radial Blind clone, which would only further the comparison to Excalibur and again result in Ash never being taken along for anything where mobs level past 40-60.

     

    Edit: Building duration on an Ash necessitates the loss of some combination of range and/or strength, which will directly weaken his Bladestorm which is the only thing anyone cares about in the current state of his abilties, if you want an invis frame run Loki or Ivara. You never really filled out how his 4 would work in your ideas, you briefly mention that there are clones but say nothing about how they work (Mirage Halls clones or something else).  Also, letting him stealth all the time while not attacking while his 4 is running is a bit ridiculous, especially with him being invulnerable while attacking.
