  1. I was against this argument at first, but after 2 years of void sling, yeah i've changed my mind, gimme my void dash back, and void blast to boot.

    Void sling constantly stops short, drains a lot of energy, and leaves me very vulnerable. Void dash was instantaneous, it didn't care about your hitbox, if there was something or someone in the way, you went through it.

    As for void blast, it was a very good defensive utility. out of amp energy? Quick void blast and stun them. With the old unairu magnetic ability, it made this even better, as now their own bullets start hurting them.

  2. The 'angels of the zariman' quests paints the zariman as our new home, kinda hard to call it a home if we're almost never there. But if it changed to an operations hub like the drifters camp, that can changes really quick. To top it off, this makes the grineer/corpus invading the ship feel more immersive, because now, they're actually invading our base.

    We already have a place for navigation, the duviri door, as well as the mirror in the same room acting as our arsenal. I'd recommend keeping that theme and making this room our "orbiter". I'd also recommend expanding this room to fit more into it.
    -The golden intrinsics disk could be extended into the focus schools menu.
    -Acrithis's terminal could be turned into a multipurpose terminal, with menu options to choose between the foundry, mods, arcanes, and her. (it can connect to her in duviri, why wouldn't it be able to connect to our ship in orbit?)
    -Helminth would be the real trouble, although honestly, you could probably just reskin him as void contamination to fit the theme of the ship. (the silvery white tendril parts that void angels are made of)

    The pieces are already here.

    What do you mean by "chain mechanic" on banish?

    Banish works on a chain mechanic similar if not identical to volt's shock. Currently, it chains from nearby enemy to nearby enemy within a cone shape, but this jumping mechanic can skip enemies along the way sometimes and can be hard to predict. That is why i wish to simplify banish, and just make it banish everyone in the cone's radius straight up.

    Stasis seems interesting. I'm guessing it'll work like wisp's motes/khora's venari ability; tap to cycle hold to cast? Energy regen on flood seems moot if its tied to banished enemies, in most cases enemies won't last more than a split second unless its a boss. Entangle seems like discount kullervo, not sure thats what limbo needs.

    This cycle 2nd ability is ultimately designed to give limbo more abilities that actually do something with the rift. With cold proc added to stasis, that alleviates the overguard issue, they'll be slowed even if only to 1 cold proc's degree.
    Flood is designed to give teammates a reason they might want a limbo on their team, and now with the passive alterations (allies being able to kill rifted enemies if they're close enough) mass banishing enemies is less disruptive. When it doubt, melee it out. Its a support ability to encourage teamwork between limbo and allies.
    Entangle is supposed to be a way that limbo as well as his allies can harm enemies across dimensions from a distance. Although to keep things balanced, the enemies have to be in close proximity to something/someone already banished, so in other words, limbo still needs to banish stuff anyways for it to work. Its not supposed to link enemies together within the same dimension, only across dimensions.

    Radius increase is nice, idk what removing surge on them is supposed to do tho, the radial banish is on unbanish

    This is more QOL, they added hold banish to unbanish everything in the rift, this is just supposed to be the same thing for rift surge to avoid unwanted surge looping. (holding to unbanishing surged enemies, triggering rift surge to just rebanish them again)

  4. Passive
    -Ally players within 5m of an enemy, can harm them regardless of rift status. (not limbo himself though)
    -Improve/rework visual indicators for enemies/allies who are in the rift.

     

    Banish
    -Remove chain mechanic, banish all enemies within a cone radius.

     

    3-Cylce Ability
    -Only 1 can be active at a time. Stasis cannot be active alongside flood, or entangle.

    Stasis
    -Same as it is now, freezing enemies in the rift for a duration.
    -Duration increased from 15s to 20s.
    -All enemies are given 1 cold proc while active, including overguarded enemies.

    Flood
    -Channel ability, costing 1 energy per second per enemy in the rift.
    -Allies within 16m are given 1 energy per second per enemy in the rift.
    -Limbo is not given energy per second.
    (the upkeep here is allies killing enemies in the rift, restoring limbo's energy and reducing the drain as limbo banishes more enemies, meanwhile allies are being supplied with energy)

    Entangle
    -Duration based, lasting 20s.
    -Using the ability while it is active will simply deactivate it, just like stasis.
    -Enemies outside the rift within 5m of an enemy inside the rift are entangled together.
    -Entangled enemies divide damage taken between each other.
    (if 4 enemies are entangled, and 1 takes 100 damage, each will instead take 25, including the initial enemy that was hit, negating the 100 and dealing 25.)

     

    Rift Surge
    -Increase radial banish radius from 5m to 10m.
    -Hold down rift surge to un-surge all enemies.

     

    Cataclysm
    -Nullifiers no longer pop cataclysm, instead cataclysm's timer rapidly speeds up when touching a nullifier.
    -Cataclysm no longer shrinks.
    -Enemies that walk into a cataclysm are pulled 3m toward the center.

     

    This is my take on a limbo rework. Limbo currently doesn't have enough abilities like stasis which actually interact with the rift, 3/4 of his abilities all fundamentally do the same thing, banish enemies. My solution? make stasis part of a 3 cycle ability, giving limbo more abilities that interact with the rift. Another large problem is his lack of teamwork, and how the rift just blocks allies from killing enemies, giving them few workarounds. My solution here is 2 fold, allow allies who are close enough to banished enemies to deal damage through the rift, and give limbo a support ability, the most fitting option would be one which restores energy.

    Lastly, the visuals of the rift need to be improved. Indicators for enemies who are banished are barely visible, and this problem has only gotten worse since the new lighting rework. I'd recommend something similar to an eximus aura, or a ephemera given to enemies who are banished. Visual indicators are far more important for enemies then for allies.

    Option 1: Re-release the Heirloom collection despite its status as time limited, and anger all those who purchased it already because their time limited exclusives are no longer exclusive (cue demands for refunds)

    ... or

    Option 2: Maintain the original time-limited exclusivity, don't re-release the Heirloom collection, and anger all those who either missed out on it or are now regretting refusing to get it. 

     

    There is no third option that satisfies everyone.

    Good points, but I'd just like to remind you the valkyr gersemi skin was also advertised as limited time only, after which it was added permanently. TBH i wouldn't mind the heirlooms becoming permanent the same way.

    The heirloom skins were a complete disaster, no matter how you slice it people are/were/will be mad. The only difference is who, either the small number of people who bought the skins, or everyone else every single time they see someone with it, just to be told they can't have one.

  6. Passive:
    -Change knockdown immunity to be based on rubble. 90% or more rubble gives the player 100% knockdown resistance.

    1st: Landslide Rumblers
    -Move to 1st ability as is.
    -Augments remain as they are, just for the 1st ability now.

    Simply move his 4th to his 1st. Punching is nice, but fist weapons exist, baruuk exists, and honestly, Atlas needs more stone based abilities. His 4th isn't all that special either, wukong has something similar for his 1st ability, as does nekros if you kill an enemy with it. I do not believe rumblers are a strong enough ability to take up the 4th slot.

    2nd: Tectonic plates
    -Fuse the augment 'tectonic fracture' with the base ability, allow for 3 walls.
    -Hold to make a 4th wall that is immediately thrown at enemies.
    -Petrified enemies take triple damage from the hold function.

    This is mostly to clear up a mod slot. The augment should already be part of the ability IMO, and a simple hold function can keep its current functionality as a damage dealing ability. Adding increased damage for petrified enemies encourages synergy and ability usage.

    3rd: Petrify
    -Reduce cost from 75-50

    This ability is used rather often, and is borderline required for his passive, reducing the cost allows us to put more emphasis on it and increase its usage. Leaning into petrify seems like a good way to encourage usage of the other abilities.

    4th: Meteor Shower
    -AoE channel ability
    -Meteor stikes deal impact damage.
    -Meteor strikes strips a percentage of armor based on power strength.
    -Meteors explode on impact, dealing blast damage. AoE is based on power range.
    -Meteor explosions do not strip armor.
    -Meteors deal triple damage to petrified targets, both the explosion and the initial strike.

    This is inspired by ember's 4th, and as a way to show it doesn't fit her, I'd like to try it on atlas, a warframe actually based on rocks.

    his did come up and DE basically said that implementing this would take too much time and be too disorienting for the majority of players.

    Shouldn't. It should be as simple as moving the camera position where the player's head is, and rendering their character invisible client side. Bullet jumping, sliding, everything should look almost the exact same as it does now, just from a closer perspective.

    Infact, its so easy, they already have the code for it. This already happens every time you aim with a sniper or scopped weapon. All they'd really need to do is copy & paste, then do a bit of tweaking to remove the zoom and ensure the camera doesn't spin 360 degrees when bullet jumping.

    test it yourself if you don't believe me, bullets of eximus units are frozen while stasis is up. Corpus tech eximus will be the most noticeable if you'd likeFrozen-Bullets.png

    Huh... that might be a bug from left over features XD a week after stasis was added, they changed it so ally bullets don't get frozen but i guess because enemies were frozen and overguard didn't exist, they didn't fix it for enemy bullets.

    1st Ability: Banish

    Instead of single target, just make it an aoe cast, or even have it a tap to cast on 1 single enemy or hold cast on group of enemies.

    Its already AoE, it banishes in a chain. But i do somewhat agree, IMO it should be an AoE cone radius.

    2nd Ability: Stasis

    The same thing really, but weapon projectiles fired from Limbo and allies are faster. Also, this should literally freeze most (if not every) enemy types in the game. Just because an eximus have overguard shouldnt mean they can just waltz right through the rift no issues. I know its an ability and they're immune to that but its literally a different dimension.

    Agree here too. Though ally projectile speed wont do much when enemies are litterally frozen in time, freezing overguarded enemy projectiles would help to mitigate the overguard-limbo issue. IMO though, it should just give them slowness.

    3rd Ability: Rift Surge

    The rift torrent augment should just be mandatory at this point, like i hate how mandatory it is to have this augment in Limbo's builds. Or if not, have the ability do something like it affects enemies outside the rift or something. There is literally quite a lot of potential this ability has, and without the augment.....its aight at best.

    If im understanding you correctly, you want them to fuse rift torrent into rift surge. If so then i agree aswell, limbo's builds are incredibly crowded with bandaid mods, any excuse to have some room to play with is a plus in my book

    4th ability: Cataclysm 

    The same thing, but since this is like a gateway to a different plane, i think it should do more for enemies who enter the bubble like take continuous damage on the edges of the bubble, or even upon entering, enemies take a small percentage of true damage dealt to them.

    Good additions too. Limbo's damage is pitiful and this would mitigate an issue with enemies hugging the edges of the bubble.

     

    Overall, 6/10. Nothing here is harmful to the current limbo, and some of it helps to deal with the a couple problems he has. But honestly? Its not enough IMO. These changes don't make him easier to understand for new players, nor offer any new ways to interact with the rift.

    3/4 of limbo's abilities still fundamentally do the same thing, banish enemies. IMO we need to get rid of rift surge, add the damage from rift torrent somewhere else, and have a new ability that allows us to interact with the rift more as an entire dimension that limbo alone controls.

    I don't know that this is practical to solo - I tried it a couple times and couldn't pull it off but I haven't tried recently since learning what works.

    In a group, you basically need one good defense frame and at least one person on voidrig - that provides enough protection and enough dps. Two people on voidrig is even better. Two defense frames and two voidrigs is even better. Specters also help quite a bit to draw aggro if you have gear access.

    Limbo is actually god king here if you can safely bring him: voidrigs can use their 4th through the rift (and even if they couldn't he would still be great) - this is how to take zero damage on the objective. A well built Nekros is also a god king here: his shadows draw all the aggro and he is the second best defense in the game after Limbo imo. I've had intermittent success with other things like a lull build on Baruuk, and a chaos build with Nyx is of course a great defensive tool that I would place just below Nekros as far as effectiveness. Khora is ok but very reliant on statsticks for dps to clear the nets - and everyone else struggles to clear them for her. Frost isn't great - his bubble doesn't scale that high - his 4th is actually more useful here. Hydroid is ok but I find a lot of damage tends to get through his defense. Zephyr is good with enough range. Gara didn't seem to be as effective as I thought she would be: that DR helps for sure but you have got to have dps to back it up and she just takes forever to scale high enough to be relevant there - I'd add her as a secondary defense not as a primary.

    Anyone running silence is a blessing. Gloom is also handy ofc.

    Basically bring whatever you use to solo SP Circuit defense and add a voidrig. If no players brought any defense frames my best advice would be to drop a bunch of specters and jump into your voidrig and suggest to the others to do the same. With 3-4 voidrigs you can kill them all before they get in range to do damage (mostly) and the specters should catch what slips through.

     

    Shhhh, quiet, if they find out he's helpful in a team they'll nerf him again.

  11. 1: Mind Control
    -Increase max control targets to 3. increases further with power strength.
    -Start controlled targets at 1000% increased damage.
    -If possible, give controlled targets the same color pallet as nyx.
    -Change eximus aura's to nyx's energy colors.

    2: Psychic Bolts
    -Remove 6 bolt limit.
    -Make AoE.

    3: Chaos
    -Integrate augment into base ability. (making chaos a constant AoE with shrinking radius)
    -Decrease mind control animation to 1 second, or remove entirely.

    augment: chaos control
    -enemies effected are given damage vulnerability, based on the amount of enemies under chaos's effect.

    4: Absorb
    -Change damage from magnetic to radiation.
    -Give radiation a chance to proc on hit.
    -Add hold function to build up damage at the cost of energy while holding. (similar to inaros's 3rd)
