I am surprised Ceres Prosecutor was removed,
One of the Worst imaginable objectives I think every Player would agree is find 3 Caches on Uranus.
( New player Perspective - they aren't going to have Limbo with max loot radar )
It is painful and annoying not to mention Cache rewards are pretty awful to begin with. The only Useful cache Infested Space Tilesets and those are an even bigger pain to get to.
They already changed that one. You only need to find 1 cache, not 3. So its pretty easy now.

Swapped game modes of Kelpie and Kappa nodes on Sedna: Disruption <-> Spy. This moves Disruption off the main path forward to aid in New Player Experience.
Yes of course... Sedna (the final planet in the game) and "New Player Experience" make sooooo much sense when you use them in the same sentence together like that. Only thing after Sedna is T4 void, and Steel Path (if you want to count that).
Not really complaining that you have done this, just confused WHY you felt the need to change it?

Actually had that bug a few times... a pretty weird one if you ask me. Thank you for fixing it.

That's funny. Won't make a difference tho
Also thank you for the Wreckage changes in Railjack. I highly doubt I will ever notice it but for those players that still do play railjack or will want to play it in the future its a nice change.

What are you talking about? The pictures are perfectly clear. Did you clean your glasses?
I believe they mean this image:
This image is sadly blurry for me and I assume for them as well.

Had the update bug as well. I verified my files then optimized them and that fixed it. Hope this helps

Only being able to get them from Acolytes outside of these alerts, 4 per drop, doesn't seem like enough.
Sadly, its only 4 Steel Essence per acolyte WITH a resource booster. No booster and you only get 2 lol

Thank you for the fixes! Adding new things is nice of course but fixing the stuff already in the game? I enjoy that much, much more. So seriously, thank you for the fixes DE!

It was broken since release and worked off non-headshot kills as well; it requires headshots now. *sad cyanex noises*
Ah gotcha then. Well at least you had fun with it while it was bugged.
-
Also chat is completely broken for me after this latest hotfix even though I haven't changed any settings on my end so thanks for that.

Not mentioned in patch notes, but RIP Arcane Pistoleer
Oh? Do tell. DE regularly unintentionally breaks things, so whats the problem with it?

Huh, but why are kuva and tusk shields also immune then... Unless they have iron shields as well?
Still thanks for the info😀

Not sure this belongs in mission bugs but whatever. Was leveling my Tiberon Prime with Primed Shred on it and noticed that I could not shoot through the shields of Elite Shield Lancers, you know the one with the big yellow shields? I could shoot through regular Shield Lancer shields but not the elite ones. So I was wondering was I just missing my shots? So I went to test it in the simulacrum. I tried 5 Shield lancers, 5 Elite shield lancers, 5 Kuva shield lancers and 5 Tusk shield lancers. And low and behold I could only shot through the regular Shield lancers shields, no one else. The Tusk, Kuva and Elite shields might as well have been a Rhino's Ironskin lol. Punch through did not allow me to shot through the shields at all. 2.2 Punch through can't shoot through a shield? Why the heck should I use it then? Those Grineer shields must be super thick lol. Grineer should just make all their ships out of whatever they make their shields with and watch the bullets do nothing...
Is this supposed to do this or is it a bug?

Was doing the ground mission. Did 17 in a row (the max) 3 times. Never got any credits for it, not even the basic ones. The flotilla was also super bugged. The flotilla was showing 0 ground squads, 0 space squads and 0/100 murex regardless of how many were actually in the flotilla. Until I actually get the minimum amount of credits I should have 6000+ I will not be playing Scarlet Spear again. Why waste my time for no reward?

As of 03/05/2020 my Chat window bugs out a lot. Honestly unsure whats causing it but the chat scroll bar keeps moving around. Before the update it was always on right and never had any problems. Now its sometimes on the right like it used to be, sometimes on the left and then sometimes in the middle of the freaking chat window lol. It being in the middle is the worst since it makes it hard to even read chat now...
Also I am sometimes unable to click on things linked in chat as well as players names. Neither right clicking nor left clicking work when it bugs out. I normally use a controller but even when I unplug it and just try to use the computer defaults it doesn't work. Not sure what you guys broke in the update but it was working normally before it. The only way I have found to fix the problems with the chat window is to completely log out of the game, then log back in. The chat window will then work fine until it doesn't again...
Have to say though that I really dig the new loading icon and how fast the load times seem to be. And the FOV increase is great.
Please try to fix this quick since I now either pretend chat doesn't exist or I just log out. And once I log out I think to myself do I really want to log back in? Or should I just do something else... Not thoughts you want your players to have.
I hope this helps you narrow the problem down.

4) There is a reason gameplay and rewards are two different words. You play a game with the promise of rewards. If those rewards are randomly generated you can have people play longer. This is a fine balancing act, and again DE sometimes borks it hard. If you want an example I want you to find someone who built a Xiphos, and didn't buy it. I will admit that I bought it, because fractional drop chances from a 3 cache find on extended missions is absolute crap. If you want another find anyone willing to solo grind for the mutagen samples to unlock the Hema. I did that too, and it sucked.
The Xiphos example really hit home for me. Spent 2 months trying to get a single part and never got it. Gave up and bought all 3 parts from 3 different people in less then 20 minutes with plat. It was just easier

I mean Warframe does have a slot machine in it though... I can't call rolling and rerolling a riven with kuva anything other then a slot machine.

Regarding your final point....sigh. Think it through. On consoles they don't have platinum discounts. You buy platinum, you get something that could be used to buy anything. You play on PC, and you buy platinum. The second Tennogen comes out you then have to plink down more real money, because you can't use that platinum to buy it. Mirror consoles, who have no discount, and you can use the stuff you already paid for to buy a digital item.
The removal of discounts isn't what I desire, it's the ability for platinum to be used to buy all goods. If losing discounts is necessary for this, then I'm fine with that. You somehow missed the fact that I spent money already, want to use it, and am unwilling to spend more because I can't use what I already paid for to get what I want. If you'd like to misinterpret, let's use an example. I walk into a Chuck-E-Cheese, and buy $20 worth of tokens. I can use them to then trade directly for prizes. That is until the last case. That case has prices in USD for items, and the tokens are no good. I cannot convert the tokens back to USD, and the reason for this is that sometimes they offer a 50% discount on the USD to token transaction.
I agree with the this. I would really like to buy Tennogen with Plat so I have something to spend my plat on. I have thousands of plat (not trying to flex here) but nothing to spend it on. All cosmetics I can buy with plat that I actually like I own.
Rivens are basically dead to me since the one time I invested a catalyst, 5 forma and specifically bought a riven for a weapon I really like only to have DE nerf the weapon just one week later... ouch.
Have more reactors, catalysts and forma then I even need. Same for resources and slots.
Give it away to friends? All my friends have left Warframe basically lol.
Would be nice to have something to spend it on. Especially once I heard that you can buy Tennogen on consule with plat... Feelsbadman. And no I don't buy plat with money. I don't really see the point.
I also see no reason to spend actual money that I can use to buy food lol on little points of data in a video game that will die eventually. Now if the game would keep going even after DE decided lets shut it down? Sure why not spend some money to look cool. But yeah I don't see that happening.

This kills me. Everyone is so worried about the dragon...but the problem is why the dragon is so vital to minimize the painful bits of the grind.
Chroma's ability to do huge amounts of damage to a single target is pretty much built only for eidolons. The people who are complaining most vehemently are worried about Chroma being useless, and aren't articulating that this is because he functionally has one primary usage case which allows him to shine. To make this simple, there's not a lot of content designed to make use of what Chroma delivers, what he delivers is not suddenly broken.
You can make the argument that self damage is a skill check. The Bramma, Lenz, Acceltra, and Ogris are all pretty good but require skill not to kill yourself. The problem is skill and luck are needed. There's nothing like charging up an attack and having a flame blade rush you and eat the explosive at point blank because they have no long animation to indicate their teleport. It almost seems like the flame blade series of enemies is free of the animations which our frames are locked into, but instead of fixing that inconsistency we're addressing self damage in a way beyond the current band-aide mods.
I guess in short it isn't the death of Chroma. It is making it much more difficult to pull huge single target damage values, but the only content at this time which uses this is either the Orb Mothers (functionally dead because the rewards are one and done) or the Eidolons (still around because of trash drop rates).
If I were to suggest bigger issues, my list of the five frames which are dead is as follows:
Vauban - Still CC only, with stats which make him very tough to be survivable without very specific tactics.
Zephyr - 2 exists only to make 4 not mediocre, the cast time for turbulence makes it a pain, the lack of armor means current stats are underwhelming given power 1 is only mobility. I say this despite maining her.
Grendel - The grind to get him sucks, and after all of it you're stuck with a frame whose power economy makes an interesting move set unusable.
Hydroid - For being the pirate in a space ninja game my kit has largely been superseded by others, so there's no reason to play me.
Harrow - What the heck am I? My powers seem to be support based, but only if I do the killing. Am I supposed to be a solo frame, because the grind to get my parts is 100% teamwork required.
Chroma, personally, ranks in around 10. The Eidolon and Orb Mothers do enough damage through AoE and mobs that you won't have to self inflict it, and base stats make him viable enough everywhere else to be an acceptable, if not ideal, choice. Not being able to self activate bonuses doesn't change that, it makes them impossible to prime and therefore require more instant micro-management. In short, less fun and reliable.
Side note, who thinks that the Scarlet Spear event is going to be a race to kill the final Orb Mother as a sentient? Squad link will be exclusively with Orb Vallis teams, and the grineer veil missions in railjack will be a complete W, X, Y, and rerun Z multiple times (with sentient incursions against the grineer) to unlock the fight with the final orb. This is going to be the case so DE can stabilize the link with instanced Fortuna groups, so if there is an influx of players we don't have another event centered around entirely unstable grouping. Little Duck is the quest giver because there'll be some new token toroid, and you're going to primarily be rewarded with sentient killing tech and the arcanes as farmable resources through accumulation of the new toroids. I swear, if this is what we've waited more than a year to get it'll be the rotten cherry atop the Lich-Railjack-Arcane waste matter sunday.
You forgot two other frames that really need a rework. Chroma and Nyx.
Nyx is in a real bad spot and Chroma has needed a rework for a while now. Removing self damage just makes it more obvious that he needs a rework.
Agree with your other points though.

Any reason why Arcane Aegis is going to get nerfed massively?
Current Rank 3: On Shield Damaged:
6% chance for +60 Shields/sec for 20s.Soon to be changed Rank 5: On Shield Damaged:
3% chance for +30% Shield Recharge for 12s.It just sounds worse to me, or am I missing something?

Once you hit Rank 60 for the Nightwave Intermission, NW challenges become pointless. There is no benefit. I hit rank 60 before the new week challenges even came out and wanted to be sure that I couldn't rank up anymore before I complained. But there it is. No more levels and no more NW creds.
I'm not even one of those super serious 'do all challenges' players. I do whatever challenges I would normally do and the easy ones. Any even slightly annoying ones? Just skip them. This would be fine to have max rank so easy to get if NW Intermission was going to end in a week or 2 from now but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Maybe raise the NW rank cap? End the Intermissions sooner? No real ideas here but man does NW feel pointless right now. Also do support tickets just get ignored over the weekend or something? Filled one out an no response at all...

1 Falling through the crewship floor back into space.
2 Falling through the Railjack floor back into space.
3 Missiles being launched at me, not hitting me at all. I go into a ship and I'm insta dead because I guess the #*!%ing missiles hit me while I'm in the ship?
4 Being randomly teleported back to the mission start point in space for no reason.
5 Being randomly teleported back to the Railjack for no reason.
6 Being stuck in a crewship floor. Unstuck does not work.
7 Being stuck in a crewship ceiling, again unstuck does nothing.
8 Being stuck in the Railjack ceiling and completely unable to move. You guessed it unstuck does nothing.
9 Dying while in archwing with grey health, grey health means you take no damage so how?!
10 Getting a black screen when entering anything in Railjack, this includes the Railjack itself, crewships... anything. Going into operator mode fixes this problem, your welcome.
11 Getting a black screen and falling noises. Congratz you are now falling through the void. Have fun with that.
12 Randomly getting the no mods bug. Meaning all your weapons have no mods on now and do pathetic damage. Operator amps still work cause no mods does nothing to them.
13 Railjack boss commanders dropping Thief's Wit, nothing, 66 credits then 42 credits. I hope this is a bug cause if not your drop tables are total garbage DE.

Was doing an exterminate kuva controlled mission public cause I figure the more people killing the faster I finish. Get about 30 kills in and someone else joins. Then the other player's Lich spawns in so I figure I'll help them with the fight. I didn't notice but I guess the other player was so scared of their Lich that they left the mission. No worries right? Wrong their Lich stayed. So I'm fighting their Lich and downed it multiple times before I noticed "Huh, the other player left." But I see a mercy prompt on their Lich. So I figure I try the prompt the Lich kills me, then I can finish the mission. I try my first mod and it works. Try the 2nd which also works. I'm thinking 'Wow this is weird' but I try my 3rd mod which also works. I see my mod charges get used up but instead of getting a prompt to convert or vanquish my screen goes white and it says Warframe Not Responding. My game has been stuck like that for the last 20 minutes now. Going to close my game and see how it goes.
Edit: Game seems fine and I still have all my mod charges, so the only thing I lost was my time. All Liches solo from now on though, not worth the risk.

Hey DE how old is your game now? And yet you still have your doors randomly bug out and no longer work. This of course means completing the mission, regardless of what mission type it is IMPOSSIBLE. DE please implement an emergency door opening command or item. Something! I dislike aborting missions to get a mission failure message but I have no other choice when its actually impossible to actually do the F-ing mission!
Best regards MR 27 space ninja who is stuck behind a bugged door.

Did a 30 minute Arb Interception on Uranus and I got 6 Vitus Essence for the whole 30 minutes. And that was with me having a resource booster, so I really got 3 in total. Did a 30 minute Arb Interception on Mercury and got 38 Vitus Essence. Got 6 Vitus Essence as a rotation reward (3 Essence then 3 Essence again) so that's 32 with a resource booster. Actual amount I got being 16. So that's 3 vs 16. See the difference? Same mission, same enemy type. Only difference being the planet lol. Might want to look into that.

Evolving cosmetics sounds cool, thanks!
Thank you for this.
Shame, that would give us a reason to actually use Yareli😔
Thanks for that, super annoying in relic fissures when you can't even SEE the reactant lol
Incredibly curious what that actually means lol
HUZZAH! 🤩 Thanks so much for this!
Lmao🤣
Thank you for fixing this, now there will be less confused/pissed off tenno. About that at least...
