EDID: Ok so here's a followup question, why does mesa have 2 - polarities? I put streamline on it but I don't think streach would help much, so what gives?
Default frame polarities are seemingly randomly given. You can put Flow in the second slot.

To remove serration you need to rework the entire mod system. Plus letting some people keep it is not in any way shape or form fair.
Why would the entire system need rework? It's removing a single mod.
Of course people aren't going to keep it, we'll probably be compensated with cores.

I am strongly against this. First and foremost, I would prefer my gun to do crap damage for 4 levels then be able to throw my max Serration in it right off the bat (assuming it has a V polarity and potato'd, but this applies for forma'ing weapons as well) rather than have it be basically trash until at least the teens. Secondly, this would do absolutely nothing to improve the game. Everyone would just forma that V into a bar and throw another elemental mod in, while complaining heavily about it.
This would absolutely improve the game. We have one less mod that needs to be taken to rank 10, new players wouldn't fall so far behind vets, and all weapons have a potential global damage increase because of the free slot. Certainly that's worth the minor annoyance of not doing a lot of damage pre-30.

at the cost of clicking a finger once every 7 hours or so, the results more than justifies the cost, I have 8 distilling extractors so I can constantly put them out to extract without risking them blowing up
From extensive usage and testing, you only need 4 extractors.

How is emoji spam different from just text spam?

One of the main reason I use the Dragon Nikana is because of the sheath. I would love for all bladed weapons to get sheaths eventually, but that isn't exactly the most important thing for DE to be working on.
Thank god. I wouldn't be able to stand an empty Dakra sheath sitting on my back.

It's interesting that it's only the non-rushers that are complaining about the rushers, not the other way around. Even though we have to deal with slow af guys who force the 60 seconds wait at extraction and make us wait at friendship doors, we deal with it fine.
I'll go a little further here and turn this 'forcing ones playstyle upon another' point on itself and towards the rushers. Those who do literally just drive on forward, ignore most of the enemies, complete the xyz objective and then sit at extraction are the ones who are forcing a very strict - and possibly punishing - playstyle on the rest of the team. The rest either have to keep up to get to extraction and/or deal with the masses of enemies in their comrades wake. Thing is, this is mainly a co-op game and it'd be nice to see people being considerate of others when playing co-op. A balance of give and take. Play solo you say? Same can be said for those who rush off and play as if they are on their own anyways.
There's no winner of this particular argument because it can be used by both sides.

You can combine every rifle utility mod and it still won't be worth a damage mod.
(That was slightly hyperbolic)

1200+ hours in game and not once have I thought "boy, I wish I had two melee weapons with me".
I have.
The answer is probably: "No because DE's animation team is overloaded with work and they would just hate to double the clipping position and holstering animations of all Warframes". As simple as that. You're asking them to take on a HUGE amount of work.
Then we'll just deal with clipping for now.

On topic;
I'm pretty sure they've already made a fix for this. I was doing an invasion when my teammate got to a door before me (yay speed runners!) and they hit X three times and the door opened for them, without me there.
If this actually worked it would have been the hottest thing on the forums for a while.
-
What do I think?
Remove coptering.
This is not an option.
-
Ult better perform as well as top existing melee weapons.
Longskirts are lame as hell in combat.

I think the prisma skana might outmatch the dakra prime, although the dakra prime is the highest damaging sword(60), and the prisma skana being at 35, the prisma skana can beat the dakra prime with bright purity, which doubles ALL damage types on the weapon, so giving the prisma skana a raw damage of 70 :O
And with Pressure Point, Dakra's 132 beats Skana's 112.

Don't buy it, so later on I can sell it to you for 400 plat.

She's better than Volt at least.

it does act as armor ignore to an extent simply because puncture has a nice bonus against armor units. obviously it does not literally ignore armor
It has a less than stellar status effect and is ineffective against unarmored. I'd say it's even with slash.

Ok. Fine. Nova can slow down enemies better than frost in a MASSIVE area. I don't want to calculate the exact size, lets just say it's way farther than absorb could ever hope to reach (I estimate 70-80 meters in radius). Additionally this slow down also causes enemies to take double damage and explode, dealing 800 damage each on death. Nyx can absorb damage and redistribute it as magnetic damage in a radius of 24 meters. Although this allows her to tank, it's nothing more than a cc at high levels, when mag damage won't do anything. Nova can throw out a mobile little ball, very similar to absorb, except amd multiplies its damage by 4 and can be infinitely scaled by your weapon. dealing extra damage costs no additional energy, and amd is capable of numbers that remind me of my tonkor, except white instead of yellow. (1 mil non-crits) amd also has a set radius of 12 meters than cannot be modified. If I had to describe it in two words, it would be "mini nuke" because nothing survives it. Now, on nyx's side, we have chaos, which can divert enemies attention so they shoot themselves, but when damage scales so pitifully compared to armor and health, all it'll do at high levels is distract them, making it a survival ability except at the moment, without a negative duration build, it cannot keep nyx alive. As someone graciously pointed out, an ability that requires negative duration is a good sign of a broken mechanic. In other words, nyx has a dysfunctional aoe cc and an invincibility/knockdown ability while nova has a portable nuke and a dps doubler/insane slow ability. Very similar stats, by the way.
@TheLocalHentai Nova's mprime is way better than nyx's chaos for cc. I didn't want to say it before because it requires corrupt mods, but apparently inblue isn't happy until I've included them, so there, yes, it's MUCH better. why? Because it has WAY more range and can slow a fully spooled gorgon down to 1 round per second. A max slow nova can out-slow frost. Get on my level......
No, seriously, get on it. Get nyx buffed to be on nova's level....
I'm sorry, that joke was terrible, I'm really tired at this point though.
Absorb being nothing more than a CC at high levels isn't a bad thing; that's one more CC that Nova doesn't have, though I do agree that it could use changes.
It's true that Nyx doesn't have a comparable ability to AMD, but that's ok.
You're still using reliance on corrupt mods as a weakness? Negative duration helps Chaos, the end. Chaos being a dysfunctional skill because negative duration helps it is another discussion. So as of now you still haven't given good reasons for why Chaos isn't up to par.
"In other words, nyx has a dysfunctional aoe cc and an invincibility/knockdown ability while nova has a portable nuke and a dps doubler/insane slow ability. Very similar stats, by the way."
This is totally fine, both frames serve different functions and both frames excel at what they set out to do.
MPrime is not way better than Chaos for CC because it doesn't stop enemies from firing at you. This is why solo very high level defense is doable with Nyx but not with Nova.
I had a nyx at a point where i did not yet have the appropriate corrupted mods
You just killed your own credibility.

I'm comparing like that because as I've stated, she's in an odd middle ground. She was supposed to be a glass cannon, but her abilities are only decent. I'm comparing them without mods because it's the best way to demonstrate how she's not on par with the other successful glass cannons. That's just the way I find is best for getting the point across. Do you have a better way I can show it? If not, can you stop picking apart mine please?
I understand that her abilities are "pretty good" with a full build, I'm trying to say that they aren't good enough.
Show how she's not on par by looking at her full build potential; I just cannot see how comparing abilities without mods is at all useful.
In your posts you often say "she can do this decently but it's fairly weak without corrupt mods." Well then why don't you factor in corrupt mods? So far you haven't really given any support to your opinion that her abilities with a full build aren't good enough, so don't cite reliance on corrupt mods as a weakness, and reevaluate how she handles different situations.
-
variety my friend, variety.
Providing having her cc same good as other frames.(which would be with my suggestion)
Figure how you would like this CC to function. If it lacks variety or is inferior to existing CC then you can forget about touching her 4.
-
Please...don't compare a weapon to a warframe ability
I'm not.
Most abilities are decent on their own and great with corrupt mods. nyx's legitimately are bad on their own, and become what they already should be like with corrupt mods.
A large part of your argument is based around saying Nyx's abilities suck without mods, which is an irrelevant point because we only compare abilities on full builds; nobody cares how abilities are on their own. So with a full build, Nyx's survivability is pretty good.
-
No frame should be expected to have a corrupt mod in it's build... without negative duration, chaos cannot keep nyx safe
Then put on negative duration. When comparing abilities, we always assume full builds that give said abilities their full potential. Your argument is like examining Soma's effectiveness without crit mods.
With that said I wouldn't mind a buff for Nyx, but I'm not disillusioned about how she's weak.

I think that its not as much of a chore as many folks think.
You think wrong. There's no doubt that kubrows are generally more effective if we examine their performance on paper, but the upkeep is the dealbreaker for MANY people. We're lazy, we can't be assed to press a few extra buttons to inject stabilizers, and we'd rather not have to farm extra credits to buy them. Yes it's only 3k per day but that adds up and could have been used to fuse a leg mod.
Anyway, can we accept that you're not gonna change anyone's mind? So move on.
Absolutely right. OP you're not going to sway anyone, and no one is going to sway you. I feel like you made this topic (because we all know it's a controversial subject) just to argue with people.
Bring Back Old Coptering

Let's be real here, the reason DE removed coptering was so people couldn't rush through missions and grind efficiently.
