It really doesn't fit everything, both in style and the fact that, in classic DE fashion, the metallic channel is not the accents channel, so is very very hard to pair with the majority of other cosmetics.
I imagine it's going to be a recurring event item. Probably showing up exclusively for Operations.
I just wanna see more signas personally. I mean, always bring old stuff back for sure, I hate timed exclusivity with a passion. But the two signas we have that aren't from the god forsaken heirloom pack are both very plant-like. Which is a very specific aesthetic that doesn't really fit a whole lot of stuff in the game imo.

Don't you guys get tired of saying the exact same Karen bullsht for however long Conclave's existed?
Doesn't it get boring being this pathetic, helplessly mewling at an irrelevant video game content whenever it crosses your field of view? Instead of learning to ignore it like any reasonable human would have done by now.
I wonder what's it like to live with a mind as incurious and kneejerky and egocentric as this. It must be wonderful, in a way.
It's incredible how you completely missed the irony in this statement. Cus you basically just described yourself word for word.
I was asked my opinion and I gave it, fairly calmly and without even insulting conclave players which, be be fair, I do have a tendency of doing. Calling them a bunch of overly competitive toxic meatheads that make the community a worse place for their presence. But, I held off on that in the interest of trying to be civil.
You on the other hand... really just kinda proved my feelings on the matter by coming out slinging completely unwarranted insults.
-
My honest thoughts is that conclave should have been completely removed from the game years ago.
They removed trials for being "Too unpopular and high-maintenance"
If DE thinks conclave isn't the absolute embodiment of that statement I want to know what they're smoking over there so I can stay far, far away from it.

Didn't register Khora hasn't been vaulted so that makes 100% sense to me. But filters? I'm unfamiliar. Most of the time I think of filter its merely like a profanity filter. I didn't know it could be a bit more in depth at all?
Chats have an option for you to filter for specific words or phrases. So if you just make individual filters for the particular items you're looking to buy or sell, only messages containing the names of those items will show up. I mostly use it when I'm looking for relic shares in recruiting since I don't really use trade chat at all, but it works the same.
Just click the little magnifying glass in the corner of the chat window to open the filter menu.

Void cascade and armageddon are just trash game modes in general.
I don't know how DE thought "hey you know what would be fun? Mobile defense but all 3 points can be damaged at all times and there's a boss you have to completely abandon defending the objectives to fight or it insta-fails the mission!" and "Ohh everyone loves interception, I bet they'll think a new interception where the capture points are as far away from eachother as the entire length of most other missions' maps is a blast!"
God tier game design right there.

I go to warframe market for price checks then see people selling for ridiculously lower than that price. An example being a Khora systems for 2plat when I remember maybe a fish being 1-2plat. I'm so confused if the prices have gone out the window? Or if this is the combination of different system prices caused this weirdness.
Khorra's currently the oldest available prime that hasn't been vaulted yet, and her systems is a common part.
That's basically the absolute lowest possible position a prime part can be in for value. So of course it's worthless.

The trick to dealing with this is utilizing chat filters.

That is an average time for defence.
You understand that's a bad thing right?
1 minute ago, Zakkhar said:Bring speednova. It will become fast and extremly hectic.
And watch as the impossible to defend moving target is rapidly vaporized, unless you aggressively babysit it with a meta Aoe weapon. Sounds like a blast.

Yeah... The extended missions on sortie and archon hunts are pretty rude in general. But defense is just the worst.
I don't think it should be removed, just cus they obviously put in a lot of work for chipper to be the defense objective. But 10 waves is too much.-

You probably have access to Phenmor. That's a really good primary to aim for.
I've seen a lot of people say Felarx is also really good but I haven't been able to get it to work for me and neither have friends of mine. I'd go for Strun prime instead if you want a shotgun. Strun P's op as hell at base and then you can get an incarnon adapter for it on top of that later. Cedo is also a very good and fun shotgun but I'm not sure how well it holds up compared to incarnons in the late game these days. Lotta good shotguns in this game.
Laetum is probably one of if not the most unreasonably op secondary in the game.
As for builds on any of those I'd just look up some build videos on youtube. I know it's kindof a pain but I think that's how most people learn to mod things. Leyzar is my favorite youtuber for this.
It also always helps if your warframe has an ability to armor-strip. Removing enemy armor is somewhat mandatory in steel path unless you bypass it with slash status.

Ohhh noooooo, it is?? This is terrible! I majorly agree with you, reload shouldn't be a hidden stat, it's a big tell for if I'll find a gun fun to use or not.
Thanks for letting me know it's not a bug. 🥺😞
When I find reload speed to be too oppressive on a weapon I usually just slap a "reload when holstered" mod in the exilus slot and swipe my mele between shots. But yeah slow reloads are infuriating and it feels like DE is leaning more and more into giving weapons abysmally slow reload speed over time.

You'd never take a smeeta into deep arch.
I did.
Why?
Cus I didn't feel like changing my pet.
It's stupid, but for me it really is as simple as: Smeeta is useful sometimes, and the times it is useful, I get really frustrated when I forget to equip it because I was using something else. The inverse doesn't happen, because even despite how powerful some other pets are, I barely even notice when I forget to switch to them from smeeta. so I'd rather just keep smeeta on all the time and not worry about it.
It's kindof the same issue as faction mods. It's just inconvenient as all hell to need to switch it constantly. So most people just, don't. So the question becomes: What do you care about more? Getting more loot, or overkilling enemies harder?

@SymbolicSunshine
It's not a bug. They tucked it away in a hidden menu that shows up if you hover your cursor over magazine capacity.
They crammed a lot of stats into these. I hate it. I feel like reload speed is way too important to be hidden like that.-

I prefer to just solo index. In the interior room you can literally spawncamp enemies if you're solo. And the gamemode is extremely easy now.
I kinda miss when it was actually difficult tbh.
But not enough to go asking DE to make it harder or nerf every god damn thing. -

why would I want that when I can help shield gate with sentinels, spread status better, things that influence my active gameplay consistently. Something an affinity proc doesn't do.
Because you don't need it, has been the answer to that question for myself.
If I can't die, and easily vaporize most enemies already, why do I need a companion that improves ether of those two aspects of the game?Smeeta, on the other hand, does something that actively saves me time. Which for me as an endgame player is completely invaluable.
And it's worth to earlygame players should be obscenely obvious.
I also just, don't like swapping out my pet whenever I change activities between something smeeta is beneficial to me in, and something it's not. when I forget to swap back to it it's annoying. When I forget to swap off of it to a more combat-focused pet I barely even notice

Today, my world collapsed. In the three years of my long Protea main, I have not even tried to long press 4 once. I just tried it and found out that I can cancel the rewind.
I‘m sorry for posting this. please feel free to laugh at me
The fact the game doesn't tell you you can so this is pretty annoying. there's so much stuff in the game that you can basically only know by reading the wiki.
Tho, doesn't doing this not give you back the ammo and energy you spent during the ability? Which is like the majority of the point of it?-

Honestly if they nerf Smeeta without really approaching why people like to run the Resources Doubling Pet in a Resource Gathering game, well I'd say I would he surprised but the weeks proceeding showed that they can be absolutely Tone Deaf.
All I know is, if there's a game where a weapon can cost 30k of a resource that's you can only get 100 at a time interval of 1 minute and they decide to nerf the thing that can double resources. I'd assume that they're a predatory gatcha game.
Pretty much this. Charm's resource buff is a solution to a problem the devs created.
If they want to remove the solution. They also have to remove the problem it's solving or they'll be deliberately making the game worse. What's more, this problem is felt vastly more on new players. Which has two significant issues.
The obvious one being, new player retention will go down. This is very bad for DE.
And the second one is that it's directly contradicting something DE said. That they want to reduce the grind of the early game. If they make it worse by nerfing charm without ether lowering the cost or upping the gain of, well, absolutely everything affected by it, then that would make their earlier statement a lie, and harm their reputation with longstanding players as well.

Did it not keep your Circuit progress?
As of the Dante Unbound update, Circuit is supposed to save your progress each round instead of you losing everything if you fail.Unless it makes a special exception for leaving which would be kindof stupid because, well, bugs like that happen.
As for if the devs are good about giving you lost progress back?... I've never personally bothered. But it probably just depends on if they can prove on their end that you did in fact spend the time in the mission you claimed you did,
and how much the support working on the other end feels like actually doing their job that day.Personally I don't see stuff like this as much different than losing a few hours of progress in any other game due to a crash and not having saved in a while. It just happens.
Tho, I guess on the last day of a circuit rotation that is a little bit different.-

This is actually an excellent example. Megiddo is a great scene! But not because "ooh, look how strong slime is!" After all, there's like, a dozen such examples throughout. And usually the anime moves on from them in fairly short order because they're not that important.
Megiddo is a great scene because it acknowledges the monstrousness at play in war. Whilst all the secondary characters are visibly angry and experiencing sadistic glee in revenge, Rimuru (who generally is noted for his empathy and kindness and who consistently tries to avoid killing sentient beings up to this point) has his face hidden behind a mask and is silent, listening to the count of the number of lives he's ending. The whole thing is framed as a pointless tragedy caused by the greed of a handful, extending the suffering thousandfold.
But a lot of people just see "Wow! Slime is so powerful!"
Far be it to suggest that Warframe should characterise missions like this - but the point I'm making is that room clearing is a pretty shallow form of gameplay and power fantasy. A game needs much more to be great.
That really depends on your perspective of the game. Cus "a pointless tragedy caused by the greed of a handful" Is exactly how I would characterize... pretty much the entire story of warframe. But also nearly every individual mission against anything other than the Infested or Murmur.
One stupid little interaction I had with the game that really stuck with me is when I rushed through a door and immediately fired off my plasmor just on reflex. And the wave blasted straight through a corpus crewman that was just, sitting there. I had never even noticed enemies sitting down in the game up to that point. Dude was probably just on his lunch break or something, completely unaware of any danger, and within fraction of a second a rampaging war machine barrels through the nearest door and vaporizes him. Felt kindof similar to that scene in Arcane (if you know, you know). That moment really changed my perspective on the enemies in the game. Most of them are just, doing their job, working under some tyrant they have no choice in. And we're just running around slaughtering them for reasons we haven't even really been fully given.
Every time a warframe vaporizes a room of enemies it's a horrifying tragedy caused by both the greed of the enemy leaders they're fighting against, and the Tenno themselves.

So you know how overpowered protagonists have been really popular in anime for a long time?
It's that, but in game form.
Same people that like this sort of playstyle are the people that thought the Megiddo scene in the slime anime was the coolest thing an anime protagonist has ever done.
It's really that simple. Some people find absolutely vaporizing hoards of enemies fun. And as it happens there's not a lot of games, particularly rpgs, that actually let you do that to the same extent Warframe does. So it's filling a niche that pretty much nothing else of it's quality and genre does.
In short. Fun is subjective. And what you don't personally find fun about warframe happens to be the thing it's doing that a lot of other people find fun, and other games aren't doing.
I've heard Black Desert also kinda does this.... but Black Desert feels like a whale-fishing mobile game that just got too big and needed to be put in PC. Complete with a dumb af "energy" system where you can only do so many tasks a day, and barely functional afk mechanics. So, absolute trash game in comparison.
-
I mean. when the reset happens you'll see it flooded, and then it'll die out as the week progresses, and then it'll flood back up next reset. that's just kinda how these things work.
I don't think i'll be doing it much. but Not because I don't like it. But because I'm not playing the game much at all anymore. Honestly for the time it takes to complete the rewards are fantastic. and I personally didn't find it to be all that hard. Tho my tune on that might change if I ever wanna play it when I get a bad roll. I don't think it's that bad tho. -
Faction damage on a riven is instant trash for me, not sorry. Why would I ever want a riven that's ether only at peak strength against one specific faction, or completely worthless against a specific faction? That's just stupid. Those stats should just be removed from the riven stat pools imo.
I do think there's plenty of negatives other than zoom that are fine. It's just universally a stat that's at worst not detrimental at all to have as a negative, and in some cases outright beneficial. Most other stats that are good or at least unimpactful to have as a negative are specific to the weapon they're for, and having every possible decent negative on every weapon memorized is just an absolutely insane ask. If you're looking for a riven for a specific weapon tho it is something you should be aware of for that particular weapon.-

About the shills. It's honestly hilarious how many fresh no interaction accounts I've seen today on the forum pushing blatantly bad ideas that DE would support in this situation.
About that.
A lot of forum accounts look like fresh accounts because they were console accounts that enabled cross-save and their forum account got flushed. Cus DE screwed up nearly every single minute detail of crossave possible. So it's really hard to look at account history like that now and say "They're a new player that doesn't have any idea what they're talking about" Because there's a good chance they're not, and they only look that way because crossave screwed their forum account.
Other than that tho. Yeah, the DE boot-lickers are absolutely infuriating as they always are.

Genderswapped frames in the future yes or no
in General Discussion
Posted · Edited by PollexMessier
Honestly I'd love a gender toggle on frames. But as many have said it's just an asbolutely obscene ammount of work. They'd basically have to make two different models for nearly every frame and deluxe skin.
There's are a hand full of frames that look completely androgynous tho. I seriously thought Equinox was a guy for a long time. Kinda wish they were tbh.
Imo, it would have been better if DE just made them all like that and never gendered them to begin with.
