[Khora & (avoiding) frames tied to game-wide mechanics]

That's one of the reasons they were looking to balance the 3 damage types and make Impact damage less of a black sheep among the IPS. Don't tell me things are fine the way they are, with one proc dominating, while the other 2 nigh useless. If Khora was the catalyst for this long time coming change, then I can't be anything but thankful.

I didn't tell you that, and this thread isn't about IPS changes.

I am also looking forward to IPS improvements.

You didn't really look at what Khora is or why she is delayed, did you?

I was not only talking about Khora, you didn't really read my whole post, did you?

[Khora & (avoiding) frames tied to game-wide mechanics]

Today in the devstream it was explained Khora would be delayed until her D2.5 or her kit stabilized further.

This is great news, even if I would like to see her soon.

Please avoid tying a frame's functionality directly to an unrelated game-wide system. This has already caused problems at least once with Trinity, Blessing, and Affinity Range. Archwing affinity range is now terrible and now consumables (Fosphor) change her ult's range (?!).

I'm all down for the theme of puncture/slash/impact, but tying them directly to the damage system seems exceptionally problematic. The devstream noted it currently isn't bound to IPS, which is great, but I feel it was still worth noting!

 

Thank you for the update on her and D2.5!

[Improving the New Player Experience]

1. Get rid of broken mods. I like them in concept, but in practice it's a hurdle.

2. Give players Serration, Hornet Strike, and Pressure Point. Ensure that they know these mods are core and to start ranking them up.

3. Make it clear that players can have more than one active foundry task at the same time.

[Cannot join same cetus instance/can't get group into Plains]

No matter what I do, I can't get into Plains with my friend.

1. Group in Liset: Not in same Cetus instance, can't start mission ("Waiting on players")

2. Group in Cetus: Same thing (Even if we go to the same instance#)

3. Attempt to group in Plains: My friend doesn't get an "Accept" option and also gets a "Could not deliver invitation .." when he tries to invite me. (We can group together with either hosting in public groups with normal matchmaking, we just did for the gift alert)

 

This is pretty frustrating.
