[New Meta is No Meta?]

No meta until august. 1 cycle to learn the stats, 1 cycle to come to a consensus, then 1 cycle for everyone to pick up the "best" picks they missed.

[Dear [DE] Can we PLEASE address the Stalker weapon issue]

I kept dread and use it occasionally, sold hate with a backup BP a long time ago, and have held on to despair for years waiting to get a 2nd BP so I could craft a replacement if it ever became good again. Literally years. When was despair actually good? Most of a decade ago?

.. but maybe next week it will be good. 

[Add options to decline host migration]

1. Add an option: Always extract with host. 

You know there's always that one guy who leaves after the first round, but the other 3 can handle it find without him. Oppse, you forgot to check, and he was host. Enjoy your host migration (and all the associated bug risks)

Do you check who is host the very first thing in SO, and always make sure he goes through the portal before you do? I do, because so few people say when they're leaving, and I don't want host migration. Of course, that one time you don't see him and just assume he went through, nope, he was hiding in a corner. Enjoy your host migration, and all the associated bug risks.

You know how even if you're waiting in the elevator on the Zariman with the host, and he leaves squad to extract immediately, you get host migrated and get to wait all over again on your own? With, you guessed it, all the associated bug risks.  Today I host migrated in the Zariman into a statue version of my warframe with a frozen timer. Had to kill the client. 

I never want any of these to happen. When the host extracts, I want to leave too. Every time. Not everyone agrees, so make it an option.

 

2. Add an option: Decline all host migrations in orbiter. 

When the host leaves group in the orbiter, do I want to host migrate? No, of course not, I want to drop out of the group entirely. Before you say, that's technically host migration (and you might be technically right .. the best kind of right .. if you want to be "that guy"), remember that when you leave group in the orbiter as a non-host, it's seamless with no "host migration" message/lag. 

When the host leaves group in the orbiter, do I want one or two other people "joining" my group afterwards (having suffered through said host migration) .. no, of course I don't. If I'm a jerk and don't wait for them to drop first, they might get 2 host migrations. I bet they love that. I think that's how it works, anyway. I might be wrong. 

Not everyone will agree, so make it an option. 

[What are some removed features that you miss?]

TIL

• Liches are stuck on one planet now.
• You can't break the glass anymore.
• You can self-revive in general (I noticed, but thought it was a Duviri thing) 
• Void blast is gone. (I should have noticed this .. but there's so much visual clutter I assumed it just wasn't doing much, or failed to fire for some reason) 

I miss the old alert system, before they copied the battle pass/FOMO trend, and warframe's monetization was called "pay to sleep" 

 

 

[Why did DE nerf AoE/ammo when incarnon adapters make these weapons even more busted?]

Nerf was yesterday.

Power creep is today.

A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little sentients. 

[Focus choice in Circuits]

They could always make it random too. 🤣

Or, more reasonably, make us pick between 2. 

[What's your preferred all purposes frame?]

I was ready to say wukong, but imma have to go with nekros now. 

I've often wondered why most web boards don't just lock a topic after no comments for say, 3-6 months. 

[The problem with the Tombfinger nerf is...]

Look at the bright side:

Now you can make a brashfinger and gild it for nightwave.

Feels big brain, man.

is the Kuva Bramma just a lot better than <insert weapon here>? Like 3 times as good.

Yes. 

[Can we get Void farming for primes back?]

Mechanically, I vastly prefer the new system. 

But I did like that you famed for void stuff in the void. Fissures are a little silly in comparison. 

 

[Request ability to dump a unwanted leech]

From the title I was expecting a votekick thread. 

[Do you need life support if you have a double loot chance frame and a scaling nuker in survival?]

What's a scaling biker?

[Can we get more kuva melee weapons?]

How about a kuva halikar?

Could be a good excuse to make "glaives" good again. 

[Remove companion attack and ability mods]

Ghost's invis was bugging out on me for awhile, so I started using wyrm with negate, but without attack or crown dispersion precepts, when I want to be sneaky. So .. it would be nice to have some way to keep that setup. I suppose I would be fine with a "Do not attack" precept.

Also, seconding the "just keep yourself alive" precept for smeeta. 

 

[Public void fissure missions without relics]

either you are complaining about maybe 1 time, or you are extremely unlucky, probably one of the most unlucky people in the entire community.

maybe its your connection,

Or, you know, I'm just replying to the topic at hand. 

I was pointing out the counter-argument that I quoted does not seem to have a lot of merit to me, because it prioritizes a less preferable situation (quickly matching people with relics to people without relics) over one that is ideal to the group I identify with (people with relics who want to get matched to people with relics).  OP's suggestion would obviously create an inferior situation for people without relics, assuming there are not very many of them, which as you note, does appear to be the case. I've never deliberately farmed traces without a relic, so I'm having trouble empathizing with that group. 

I can't say I've had this happen often enough to worry about either, but apparently OP does.

That would hurt matchmaking, making it harder to actually get into games with teammates, reducing efficiency.

But I don't public queue relic missions to get into games with 1-2 teammates. Or to get people to "assist the mission" 

I queue public relic missions to get 4 things to chose from.  Getting stuck with people without relics is what reduces efficiency. 

[Please drastically increase walk speed in investigation]

I have a feeling that if they did this, it would also impact jumping speed .. and have unintended consequences .. 

 

[The new speedrun Nightwave challenge is exactly what this game needed]

This may be the first nightwave mission I've read and thought, this one will be fun. 

.. not sarcastically, I mean. I've definitely said it sarcastically before. 

[Feedback/Discussion on the deluxe skins shown on devstream]

Ah, Khora, mechanically a better catgirl than Valkyr ..

.. but aesthetically an old cat lady wearing hats and undergarments from the 16th century.

.. and now some sort of sumo in bloomers, perhaps competing with Grendel for Grom the Paunch placeholder. 

[What to choose from baro? Prisma Grakata or Prisma Twin Gremlins?]

Grakata has some interesting mods, and more panache.  

[Repeller and Gyromag systems never drop even after 120 hours of farming]

2 hours ago, VoidArkhangel said:

Any other way you know and want to share?....

It's not that "Continue beating your head against the wall until they drop" is not the only answer to the problem at the moment, other than requesting a change, 
It's just that when the problem statement is that he cannot rank up because the things he is trying to farm do not drop, calling "farm the thing and rank up" a "tip" makes it seem like a bit of a WOOOSH! occurred there. 

Especially when the painful irony of being able to buy gyromags whenever you like once you get past the gyromag wall has already been discussed at length in this very thread. OP is clearly well aware of that particular situation already.

[ESO - Host Migration ruins the round]

There is also something weird about SO/ESO host migrations. 

The normal game is fairly good at recognizing that I make a terrible host. ESO also recognizes this on start-up and never makes me host. But for some reason when it's migration time, it loses it's mind and decides I should be the new host. Everyone says "WTF?" and I say "Stopping here" and they say, "YA RLY!" 

Also sometimes it puts me in super-pixelized fadeout mode permanently. 

..

but yes, I've also started watching host like a hawk. That bugger quits at the weirdest times, and he almost never says anything.  

 

 

[Add a method to extract Umbra forma (because Chroma fiasco)]

I propose a more extreme version of this idea:

1. Give us an umbra forma extraction tool, but it destroys the frame in the process.

2. Log how much it is done, by frame. (Hint: mostly chroma) 

3. Contemplate the implications.

4. ...

5. Profit!

 

(6. Make sure it does not work on Excal Umbra.)
