  1. Imperator Vandal used to take 4 seconds in arch-wing to go from 0-300. Now it can take anywhere from 20 seconds to 35 seconds!

    At 1280x720 resolution, it took 35 seconds to go from 0-300.

    At 800x600 it took 20 seconds to fully reload.

    Has anyone experienced similar issues on other weapons?

    Since we have this stat and mods with it, Archwings could just have a much greater evasion stat when deployed while keeping enemy damage the way it is, so the enemies wouldn't be hitting you 90% of the time, but you wouldn't be a tank, either, since you'd still feel nearly every single hit. You're not piloting a fighter or Fomorian, it's just the wings.

    evasion stats would be very good to have. I like how there is some risk to using archwing, but I think there are too many things that can kill you instantly kill you or stun-lock you.

    Okay, so homing is broken on non-sword archmelee weapons, and damage numbers are extremely low compared to archguns. Both issues need to be addressed before archmelee will be considered viable.

    Yep. After testing it out a bunch in the veil using a maxed out Prisma Veritux, I found the tracking to be indispensable for closing small gaps, but the weapon only starts to deal real damage after stripping armor with an arch-gun. Skaleek has a point about the usefulness of the lock-on, but the damage is still way behind arch-gun levels.

  4. Elytron missiles are very slow and both the elytron and enemies fly faster than them. If you are going full speed you will be a few hundred meters ahead of your own rocket in seconds. Giving them a speed boost and/or some form of lock on would be very helpful.

    Missile damage is also very low. Warhead deals about 12 damage to crewships in the first veil mission.  Aside from buffing the damage they could also proc some of the new statuses to make them worth using.

    High level crewships will one shot an elytron with full health and shields. If this is intended, then that's unfortunate since archwing dogfighting is really fun and should be an option for more archwngs than just amesha.

    Other archwings ought to be on the same level as amesha. Right now amesha is by far the best archwing to use in the veil because it doesn't die in one hit and has useful abilities.

    Not the damage, it needs to be able to do damage. They need to bring back lockon homing.

    Yes the damage. It doesn't matter if you can reliably land 20 hits if you can't kill anything in those 20 hits. Just bringing back the lock is like sticking a band-aid on a broken arm.

  6. I'm talking 10-20 time more damage. Arch-melee is okay in normal archwing missions but really bad in railjack. Catching up to enemy fighters is doable with some practice, but even then, most arch-guns are way better at point blank than an arch-melee. They can't strip defenses as easily as an arch-gun and fall behind in damage because of that.

    The heavy attack deals a bit over double their normal damage and shares the same animation as normal attacks, but arch-wing did not receive the melee 3.0 auto equip, meaning you have to manually equip arch-melee to use heavy attacks and even then the damage is poor.

    Arch-melee would have an interesting and engaging place in the railjack meta if it could deal tons of damage. It would reward players for closing the gap and catching enemy spacecraft.

    The problem is that if you don't do this you'll mess out on a lot of stuff including ship parts and resources to repair and build ship parts. It's almost required to spend the next half an hour to an hour looking for resources cause the mission doesn't give us enough.

    They really need to make it so that at the end of the mission we just get all the resources we would have missed (at least the ones that enemies drop).

    That's not the case if your weapons are any good. Queue up another mission and you get resources and experience for killing more guys. Feeling like your missing out for not getting absolutely everything is like feeling you missed out on cyan and amber stars for not opening every container on every map. Are they out there? Yes. Is it worth your time to pick them up instead of starting a new mission? No.

    Its almost as if this was some sort of looter shooter where RNG is one of the main systems and is implemented in almost everything

    set navigation to another mission without even confirming with me?

    It would be nice if they sorted this out. I haven't had this issue pop up, but I was surprised to find out I could access someone else's navigation. Then again, if it's locked to one person, you can't extract without them allowing you too, which would really suck.

    has the highest burst DPS on secondaries until kuva brakk was a thing, and considering what Pyrana can output, yeah.

    Burst damage is great until it takes more than one shot to kill something. This game is a horde shooter most of the time. It would be amazing in a pvp where armor doesn't scale infinitely, but that's not what Warframe is. I'm not saying it's bad or not fun to use, and the game is pve, so meta is not very important, but MR 14 is a bit silly.

    your complaints to me even seems like what would be appropriate (not the way Digital Extremes designs it but what would make actual sense), via that if Euphona is so complicated to use and requires such.... mastery... of the game, doesn't that make a higher Mastery pre-requisite fit well.

    Wouldn't really call it complaining, just questioning why an "okay" gun has the highest MR requirement.

    Also, it's pretty funny how your trying to retroactively justify its bad suplamentary stats as "complicated" and "requiring mastery". It's fine if guns have some downsides, but Euphona Prime is pretty disappointing for a weapon with the highest mastery requirement.

    and Euphona makes sense as a higher Mastery Weapon? it is in that grouping of top 5 Damage per Shot in the game, after all.

    I'm not saying it shouldn't have a high mastery, but I don't think it should be the highest.

    Damage per shot is great and all, but the weapon has a lot of problems that comparable secondaries don't, bad hip fire being one of them. Tiny max ammo, small magazine, and long reload make it less than ideal for a hoard shooter. Armor scaling hits the primary fire hard in endgame since it has no way to deal with high armor, unless you mod for the secondary fire, which greatly reduces the effectiveness of the primary fire.

    Compared to weapons like Catchmoon, Tombfinger, Pyrana Prime, Atmos, Sicarus Prime, Akjagara Prime, and Kuva Brakk, all of which have lower MR requirements, why does Euphona Prime have the highest requirement in the game out of all those secondaries?

  13. The stats list the slug shot's accuracy as 100 (the highest accuracy possible) however, that's only true for zoomed shots. The hip fire has some of the worse accuracy I've seen in this game, before even using multishot mods. Could we get the actual accuracy listed?

    On another note, how is this an MR 14 weapon? It's not bad, but it's pretty underwhelming for the secondary with literally the highest MR requirement.
