So I didn't get a chance to read the patch notes and hop online until early this morning.
Wow. Just... wow. 😑
The overguard retooling I don't mind so much, the cap stayed the same and aside from negatively impacting certain frames and/or mods, it's a fair enough tradeoff. Not ideal, mind you, but I get it and won't be loosing sleep over it.
On the other hand...Holy Hell, what did you do to Tragedy?! Line of Sight? I would have almost rather you reduced the radius somewhat rather than impose that LoS requirement. You not only defanged the tiger, but declawed him, ripped his coliones off, shaved his arse and then painted it hot pink! You'd be hard-pressed to think of any ways to further emasculate this skill without totally rendering it impotent!
On flat, unobstructed tilesets, this isn't that big of a problem. In any map with corners, hallways, verticality, walls, various clutter, etc. that can all impede line of sight, this renders Dante's 3 and 4 (specifically charged for Tragedy) effectively useless. And since a great deal of the maps in Warframe have one or more of those impeding features... yeah, there goes half his kit, and the main damage-dealing component of it. Nice going.
I can anticipate your response: you didn't want Tragedy to turn Dante into a turret that could nuke the room without moving much if at all. Great sentiment, that. Meanwhile, there are meme builds with Volt and Mirage that do that very thing. Soo uhh..., methinks your horse is already out of the barn, lads. And contrary to your stated desire, this absolutely 100% HAS ripped the fun out of this frame. You reduced him to a an overguard buffing platform who every odd now and again might get a good shot off before his squad flattens everything. That, or start playing solo, which I'm not entirely against, but at that point why even call this a multi-player cooperative game in the first place?
Haven't legit been this disappointed since Yareli first rolled out. And at least she had the excuse of starting bad. Dante had a solid week of great fun before the wet blanket got thrown over him.
