Current problem of Excavation mission is the Power Carriers.
Excavation mission itself and rewards are just fine but Power Carrier starvation makes the mission very very very undesirable.
I don't know exact number but number of live Power Carriers are capped and they got stuck somewhere so frequently.
When that happens, and it happens pretty much all the time, you just have to give up defending excavators and have to hunt down Power Carriers.
That makes the mission takes unnecessary long time and hate the mission itself.
That's all because of the Power Carriers.
And that problem limits the choice of warframe for that mission.
Especially when you play solo, must use looter frame to mitigate the starvation.
And what is the Power Carriers? Why our enemies are carrying it for us? Aren't they supposed to prevent us from digging their stuff?
I think that's pretty stupid mechanics.
What if, the charge mechanism is changed like the Index or revival mechanism of Arbitration?
Any enemies in excavation mission drops a token with specific rate and we carry the token to charge excavators.
Drop rate and charge rate can be adjusted to change mission difficulty.
And successfully eliminates the Power Carrier starvation problem and nonsense.
Please DE, do something with the Power Carriers.
They are stupid and does not make any sense.
