bundles are there so they can have those prices on them... they will never put items on bundles to be bought one by one... they would lose money doing so.
Depends. You can't make a definite statement like that without access to DE's books.

You just have to get MS on board.
Cross-play between PC and Playstation consoles isn't exactly new ground.

Bundles and the bundle market tab are just a mess in general.
I'd really like for them to go back and retire/re-configure some of them, namely the skins bundles that lack profile icons or have rather awkward items crammed into them. The value and relative savings are extremely inconsistent for some packs as well.
i.e: Frost Bundle: 700p [930p + 25k item] ~ Zephyr Bundle: 700p [880p] ~ Nekros Bundle: 850p [945p]
This just brings us back to pricing issues as well. Why is the Jat Kitty, an extremely popular clan tech weapon, 105p cheaper than an Ether Reaper?

A few friends have already received multiple 75% coupons back to back.
One day I'll get my first...

Id HATE to see what you actually consider grinding if this isnt grindy to you.
EVE Vet.
I'm used to waiting months for things to come to fruition.
-
It's just a matter of pure luck that you will even remotely get a part once a day. Yeah... that's not bad at all.
When the parts are 10-20p a pop in the span of a week or two you won't see a single person complaining.
That is not an unreasonable amount of time to wait for new content.
-
I rarely agree with the exact way they go about introducing new content, but some people really need to take a step back and learn how to be patient.
This really isn't all that grindy.
-
There is definitely a way to do a grind wall that doesn't make the game look like a patchwork mess of one-time resources.
-
See this one is the one that I used and it survived for much longer than-
This one down here vvvv
Because that ^^^^^
Forces you to sacrifice your Redirection and Vitality mods too, which would make it completely pointless, cause you die instantly as soon as it runs out, no one would use this build. Instead for the optimal performance they would use the first one.
Are these serious builds or just something to test IS tank?

Lol~
Well it is invulnerability and she can already reduce damage to non-existence, restore, buff, shields and health, so it was unreasonable to give her invulnerability on top of all that.
It's also not like we're asking for them to give Rhino Prime invulnerability. Giving him more armor won't drastically change Rhino into a overpowered one punch god.
It doesn't matter what you're asking for, the point is that there needs to be a clear and present reason for making changes. If you can demonstrate that Rhino is struggling to fulfill his role at a reasonable content level then you have a definite cause for concern.
Until you can do that I see no reason for any buffs since I have no difficulties with taking Rhino into Trials, Sorties and T4 endless.
Enlighten us.
-
Oh really?
Well how presumptuous of you to assume it's envy~
People are quite happy with where she is, that's why you don't see unhappy threads of people demanding her receive a buff like this one~
If people are happy with her then she's clearly in an acceptable state where she's accepted by all who isn't envious.
All I'm trying to say is that I'm not happy with Rhino and where he is now. And we the Rhino players/Rhino fans believe Rhino Prime deserves a buff of armor. Here you are telling us we can't have that~
Also you can stop trying to sound smart. It makes me cringe a bit~ e .e
Whoa~ Where did that come from? o -o
All I'm trying to say is that I'm not happy with Trinity and where she is now. We the Trinity players/Trinity fans believe that she deserves a return to a truly invulnerable Blessing. Here you are telling us we can't have that.
Thanks in advance for setting a precedent.
-
Is it reasonable for Valkyr to have total invulnerability based on power efficiency?
Then why is it unreasonable for Rhino Prime to have more armor?
Envy isn't a valid method of justification. Adding to that, you shouldn't assume that Valkyr is in a perfectly acceptable state for DE or the community at large.
-
You know~ The best politicians say the same things over and over in different ways until everyone is convinced and agrees with him.
Also it's not that I want him to have more armor. It's just that with this new formula with his Iron Skin he needs more armor.
It's just that with this new formula with his Iron Skin I want him to have more armor.
You have yet to demonstrate that there is an explicit need for such a buff at a reasonable point of balance.
-
Or remove her god mode and give her damage reduction at 95% to replace it, she has life strike, problem solved like, she doesn't feel like a berserker at all. Berserkers constantly attack to get benefits.
Who made that a rule?
-
Prism completely immobilizes enemies leaving them open to oneshots while they are unable to do anything (like attack move or dodge). Why doesen't that count?
I thought hard cc was stun and soft cc was reduction of ability to fight (ect molecular prime, ice wave, ect).
Radial disarm is in a league of its own. The point about it is, that the frames that do come toe to toe with RD offer something other than a temporary stun, which stomp lacks.
That's just down to different definitions coming from different games, etc.
Your definition is probably the more generalized, to be honest, and I should have specified what I meant beforehand.
-
[...]
Prism is a blind and is therefore soft CC, refer to my earlier comment.
Avalanche has a base 15m range [and a 2.5s cast time] versus 25m for Stomp. That's a fair trade off for extra utility and damage in my opinion.
Radial Disarm [paired with ID] is probably the best soft CC in the game and is the primary reason that Loki is still considered by many to be the best frame. If Stomp needs a rework simply because it's 'inferior' to RD then it can get in line with literally every other CC ability in the game.
-
For one, roar needs to be a multifunction ability like so many others already are. After rhino gains proper tanking capability, it needs to act as a taunt to draw fire away form allies, have the augment built in by default and cause an impact proc for minor grace period.
Stomp itself is, like I said, the most borderline basic CC possible considering we have ultis that blind, strip armor alongside stunning ect.
All the other "cool stuff" is already taken by the majority of actuall CC frames. What I would do with it, is scrap it and replace it with another ability to aid in rhino's tanking, leaving his CC instead of abilities, to the actuall roar, that draws enemies to him using himself as the control.
Stomp needs a lot of work to offer something unique to the game.
Additions to Roar might be reasonable, but I think you still have a skewed perspective on the relative power of Stomp.
If you would, please do go into detail on which ultimates offer an 8 second, 25 meter radius hard CC effect that can be recast to catch new arrivals and can be reliably chained to keep an area in permanent lockdown?
I'm sure you'll find many forms of soft CC that appear to offer as much on the surface, but most of these still allow enemies to move in some fashion, to attack nearby players or to throw explosives among other actions. The only similar forms of CC that I can think of are Crush and Sound Quake, which require both frames to be locked in place while casting. Tentacle Swarm and Tornado may also seem to be similar, but as you should be well aware, they are both notoriously unreliable.
The only abilities that can seriously contend with Stomp are stuck onto dedicated CC frames such as Vauban or true tanks such as Frost and even those have trade-offs and limitations.
-
Valkyr clicks on 1 button. There's no need to keep her buffs up.
And mirage's reason for invincibility is her "merit"? Yeah that's a good reason for god mode.
Mesa can just run backwards. You people are acting as if running backwards is impposible.
And no. We want iron skin to make rhino compare with the other frames.
Then what is his role? If we take his abilities one by one and compare them to others they still suck.
Charge has a delay at the beggining and end of his charge and in exchange knocks some enemies down and leaves you in the middle of an enemy crowd. Yay?
His iron skin is the worst damage absorbing/reduction/tank skill out of all the frames in the game.
His buff is mediocre at best. As other frames offer stronger and more versatile buffs.
His CC is the most borderline basic one in the game doing nothing but stunning for a limited duration, not to mention how prism costs less, lasts longer and has the same range as stomp.
And don't bring up that headcannon BS. Rhino being supposed to be a tank is no headcannon, it's what he was advertized as. It's not something rhino players came up with randomly one day.
"This is Rhino, an immovable force and highly resilient."
"With the right mods he becomes and almost unstoppable tank"
"Heavest warframe combining offensive and defense abilities"
Now please. Do tell me that those official descriptions are meant to signify anything other than a tank.
If you've managed to convince yourself that Roar and Stomp are mediocre, then I'm not really sure what would satisfy you. Propose some buffs to those skills if you would be so kind.
-
Rhino's a tank that can't tank, his second ability is luckluster and dies fast, his buff is mediocre compared to others and his CC is the most basic CC possible.
What more do you want?
He's a tank insofar as people want him to be in their own head-canon. If DE isn't designing him with a 'tank role' in mind, then he simply isn't a tank.
If you want him to be a tank, then you need to make a thread with a re-design in mind, not a simple 'buffs please!' threadnaught.
-
Ok, let's take trinity out the equation.
Justify valkyr, chroma mesa and mirage.
Do they deserve it as well?
If you want to discuss the balance of other frames, make a new thread.
This discussion is supposed to relate to Rhino's recent changes.
-
I'm in awe regarding the reaction of people to asking making rhino a little more tanky.
Chroma, trinity, mesa, valkyr and mirage? Oh yeah they deserver immorality TOTALY! Why ask?
But when you want to make rhino as tanky as them?
OMG U WANT IMMORTALITY BROKEN OP!!!1111!!111111
You realize that DE's balancing decisions and player opinions don't necessarily align, correct? I'm a Trinity main and I'm unhappy that she is still just a walking immortality/energy bot with very little active play to her kit.
I'd like for people to attempt to justify whatever buffs they propose, but I've yet to see one instance of that in this thread in regards to changes to Rhino's armor.
Pointing at other frames with an envious finger isn't a valid justification.
-
And I ask again: can you cast Shatter Shield while using Peacemaker?
Also, DOES Peacemaker REALLY scales in the game outside of Draco and early waves of T4 Defenses?
You should be dipping in and out of Peacemaker to catch energy from plates, EV, etc. and to refresh buffs or re-position yourself. The fact that you are unable to recast Shatter Shield under Peacemaker is irrelevant to your original point.
You can certainly take issue with current balancing points, but Peacemaker's damage potential was not the original point of this thread. Create a new one if you that is what you wish to discuss.
-
The whole point of this thread is the Peacemaker. You stay still while shooting and what you gain? Nothing. Every good player knows that geting less mobile reduces your survivability unless you're in the confortable Snow Globe.
No frame should be dependant of other frames to make an ultimate skill be functional
The title of the thread is, 'Stationary Skills Don't Fit Fragile Frames.' Others have pointed out that Mesa isn't fragile with 95% DR to projectiles.
If you want to discuss issues with Peacemaker specifically then make a different thread.

I forgot my history lesson where Japanese assassins used automatic turrets and landmines to stealthily remove their targets.
I forgot my history lesson where Japanese assassins used void based powers to fight various factions across the solar system.
