The problem with Nourish is that it gives multiple *incredibly* useful things rolled into a single ability, further compounded by the fact that the specific status it provides is the meta. It should never have been given both the energy buff and viral, and I strongly lean towards removing the energy component entirely. It has completely supplanted frames that are designed to provide energy to the team like Harrow or Trinity(though she needs some work in general). It's so omnipresent that it's gotten to the point of people telling you to replace THURIBLE because nourish is better. Absolute insanity.
If it was just the viral component it would still be really strong because viral is meta(which is a whole other topic of how out of control this game's damage scaling has gotten), but it wouldn't be nearly as ridiculous as it is now. And without the energy component maybe they could add the self heal back to the subsume in its place(if needed) since that's a pretty minor benefit. And it would keep some semblance of a connection to the ability's name, because viral isn't exactly the first thing that comes to mind with a name like "Nourish."
I don't know. I think it's fine as is, viral and energy are nice but the ugly animation balances them out.

Also here we see the duality of the forums. On one hand, the camp that complain about things only offered for real money and not platinum (read: heirloom collection) and the other camp who complain when things initially thought to be obtainable only for real money are then made available for platinum.
Oh I know right as if the exclusive real money marketing works around exploiting this mentality. P2P and F2P segregation. Absolutely unheard of. Who would've thought of that?
Anyway, I don't see a problem of [DE]ncent doing that. If players get mad when other players get to pay for things they've already owned, that's their problem. And God forbids EULA to exist because I guess some ignorant players will surely lose their s*** if they learn what [DE]ncent or any game developer can do with their game with absolutely no consequence.
At the end of the day, the only duality I'm seeing here is FOMO marketing being alright for some players until they fall into the very same trap themselves.

Title. Say like I borrow an iPhone from someone else to play Warframe mobile. But later I decide to buy my own iPhone or switch to Android after the Android version is out.

Braton Prime, Burston Prime, Boar Prime, until they got the Incarnon that is, now I use them even harder

He was ignored by the augment and cosmetic department (and I don't know why). While obviously he can receive a lot of QoL buff, he's mechanically a very viable warframe since he does pretty much everything to an ok extent. Maybe people just think he's a very boring warframe without a real niche, and he looks kinda ugly.

Some of the new augment mods are great, still most of the augment mod options isn't worth 1 mod slot out of 8.

If Nourish wasn't a problem, then there'd be a more equitable usage spread among those 15 abilities. But it was a clear outlier.
Which isn't to say that there isn't also an issue where certain Helminth abilities were dead on arrival; there is! But that's a different problem, with a different solution.
We shouldn't pretend like there's only one problem with the Helminth system that will require one solution to fix. The reality is that it's a complex system and balancing it will require multiple different kinds of adjustments from multiple different angles.
Nourish isn't a problem. It's a solution to energy economy and viral supremacy.

It was nerfed not necessarily for high usage as much as it was used VASTLY more than any other helminth option.
Helminth abilities are mostly dumpster fire with very few exceptions (Nourish being one). Honestly I don't think any amount of nerf will make the other options competitive enough.

First of all you have to clarify if your account was migrated from PC to PS5 or if they were created separately. If you get to choose a secondary account you are probably doing the linking instead of merging, in that case you only get to keep the stuff on your primary account on both platforms after linking. And be reminded your FOUNDER PACK CAN NOT BE KEPT if you chose your PS5 account as primary because the founder pack is not a thing on PS5. That's how platform-exclusive items work for linking I think but maybe [DE]ncent will make special arrangements for founders idk. If it's merging, platform-exclusive items can only be accessible on the corresponding platform. You really should consult the support desk before deciding if I were you.

I don't mind but for the love of MitW don't throw me in a game hosted by mobile players. The same reason to Switch host. It's okay if mobile players join a PC host.

Old corpus tile.. I miss it. It's still kind of there on Venus but that's the open version.
I just totally despise new tilesets and their huge empty rooms. I wish they'd go back to making smaller, less bloated tiles.
Early Warframe was simple in that regard, which was what made the game for me.
They make big empty rooms so that warframes like Zephyr and Yareli have more space to manuveur. That said the poor enemy spawn rate and navigation AI make these rooms a headache to play with.

The game is currently flooded with defence-stripping options. Viral-slash also ignores all kinds of armor types and works just as well. Other than a few exceptions, there is virtually no reason to build for any other kind of elements.

Exalted melee buff when?
-

-

They can work but honestly normal melee weapons will just get stronger and stronger. And they are cost free and aren't bound to a certain warframe. And [DE]ncent is still stubborn about Exalted melee for whatever reason as if they are OP or anything. That's not the case anymore since the introduction of Acolyte mods at least 5 years ago.
-
Sonicor. The damage is trash already and for some stupid reason you are in the stagger range unless it explodes as far as possible from you which makes the weapon essentially useless

If 90% of augments were hot garbage and not worth a slot then these threads/arguments wouldn't exist in the first place.
Nobody would be asking for "hot garbage" to be an innate part of a frame, to be able to have those effects equipped for free, players wouldn't be claiming that they're "band-aids" as if they're fixing the frame, nor would players insist that so many frames are "unplayable" without their augments.
Instead all of those threads would be solely about wanting said augments buffed. Which is a topic that gets thrown to the side with players instead asking for them to all be entirely free additions to their frames.
90% of them are hot garbage not 90% of them are bandaids. Bandaids are the 10% that players actually give a F about. If the 90% don't cost you a slot, there might be a reason to bother with them.

You seem to see this as a good thing, but I see it as a bad thing. Because being constrained by mod space is the whole point of the modding system.
Limitations are what allow players to make meaningful decisions. Having a limited number of mod slots means that players can't get everything they want, which means they will need to choose between different possibilities. This is an important part of what makes creating a build for a frame so challenging and compelling, because you have to whittle down all the potential possibilities into a singular collection of choices that best fits your desires.
And Augments are a wonderful part of this system, as these are choices that often contain some of the most meaningful ramifications. As an example, let's look at this mod:
This mod provides a lot of power. And make no mistake, it's no band-aid; without this mod, Crush is already well-worth using. It provides temporary CC, outputs damage, and caps my entire squad's overshields (including my pet).
And with this one mod, Crush gets even stronger, gaining:
- a cast speed buff
- a powerful armor strip
- a snare
I can only put 8 normal mods in my Warframe build, and out of the hundreds of mods that were competing for this slot, this Augment made the cut. That means I deemed it one of the best 8 mods to use in the build I wanted to make. Its slot in my build is well-earned.
But even though it's powerful, there are plenty of Mag players who aren't using this mod. They want different things than I do, and because of that they made different choices. And that's fantastic and interesting! That indicates a system with depth! This increases build variety in a very meaningful way, and it makes me think about what might be possible if I made different modding choices. Maybe I'll even try them myself sometime! But even if I don't, it's so cool to have decided on a build that fits me, and to see others deciding on different builds that fit them. All of which is to say, removing Augments from this mod slot competition would remove so much of what makes modding a worthwhile system in the first place.
And to be clear, Fracturing Crush isn't an outlier; there are plenty of Augments that do a great job of earning their mod slots. I'm sure we can all think of Augments that don't, but that's a problem with the balance of those specific mods, not the overall system. Let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater.
Simply giving me more mod slots without giving me new choices to make with them isn't just needless power creep; it also serves to reduce the number of compelling choices I'm encouraged to make as a player, and reduces the value and impact of the choices that players make.'
No thank you.
Nice argument if we ignore the fact that 90% of augments are hot garbage and not worth a slot. Either way they require a rework. Making them worth the slot or take out the slot.

Neither of them are super popular so they probably will just follow the release order

I've been trying Nourish, energy nexus, equilibrium, exothermic and energize to help mitigate that drain but using helminth, 4 mod slots and an arcane to deal with ridiculous energy economy on a single frame just feels bad.
I give up on her 4 entirely on high level. I subsumed Gloom to replace her 1 so she get some CC and life steal. Together with her half-arse armor stripping that's her 3 and the half-arse DR that's her 2 she can at least survive a SP mission and be somewhat viable.

you can use it unranked, you still get the double heat proc benefit. that's what i do, also on protea
Currently I just give up on the shield and use max rank A.Vitality. But honestly her damage is just not that great the A.Vitality isn't doing much anyway.
-
One issue of Ember for me is she's a shield-oriented frame but the Archon fire mod is health-oriented. And I will agree to remove the micromanagement on her which is the heat gauge. This gauge mostly just holds her back with no real reason at all just like the death well of Sevagoth. Both are no good for the warframe.

In my opinion. Void shells were DoA because the skins are only based on the baseline designs of the frames.
If they had put in the work to make Tennogen or even Primes compatible with the system it could have been so much better. Just another wasted opportunity.
There was a bug to apply the voidshell effect on practically any skin. Don't know why DE didn't do just that. Easy money and it's the better option for players anyway.

I did. Want me to pull up my post history? In general I strongly dislike deluxe skins that make it seem like Warframes are wearing clothes instead of being biomechanical beings.
This skin, on top of falling into said category, explicitly shows why stereotypes exist if you look at Joel Schumacher's reasoning for giving nipples and a huge bulge to Batman.
To be blunt they are just ugly. And the deluxe skins nowadays have a weird tendency of having a cultural reference or something. Like if there is a new deluxe skin announcement there's a 50/50 chance we are getting a Wakanda something that's straight out of a folklore. But I play biomechanical war machine cladded in steel armor in this game, not some Wakanda warriors. But really it's not the main problem, the main problem is they are just ugly. And no I'm not trying to be racist here so go easy with the ban button. Like I will quite literally just pay for the deluxe to remove the dangling nipple plate of Styanax. And coincidentally instead of nipple plates I will get nipple piercings instead.

is 75% DR enough?

It's more than enough together with Adaptation, Aegis and Shield Gating. And it's also easy to build for.
