  1. Hello all I would love to join. My IGN is stevengeance and my warframe account is over 6 years old I believe. My discord is stevengeance#0910. I am looking to be little more active to playing again and need a new home. I am a nursing student and I am also working night shift. I got a lot on my hands but I enjoy playing games as stress relief. I live in USA, PA. Hope to see you all :)

    MR: 24 Hours: I believe about 1.6k

  2. I hate how she is now vulnerable if you accidentally aim while in hysteria. Her finisher combo isn't easily executed anymore since you can't hold the right mouse button or else you are aiming. Valkyr got hurt from this dumb melee change. 

  3. At first I thought I was bugging out and can only buckshot close targets and slug distance targets, but the aim on Euphona has to be broken. After using it many times for a good period of time euphona seems to have a mind of it's own when it wants to hit it target or not. Pretty much renders the weapon useless. Not sure if this was fixed yet or if anyone else caught the bug. Was occurring to me two days ago before I decided to stop using euphona.

    Hysteria's Charge attack does finishers too. With the current build i have for Hysteria, i tend to do over 300 - 500K finisher damage with her Charge attack and Paralysis while in Hysteria against lvl 100 (MR14). That's with one primed mod on my Melee weapon. None on Valkyr. With my Old build, I managed to one shot lvl 180+ with Hysteria's Charge Attack even when my weapon had Acolyte mods and Rivens (Probably because of CO). 

    After i type this comment, i managed to do 687k in the Simulacrum.

    That's dope numbers. I never actually looked what she does to different mob types. Also got to consider combo counter.

    I'm not sure what they have in mind for any sort of balance.

    Some warframes have full map nukes, others have ability shields that give them full blown immunity to controlling effects not just to themselves but teammates as well without taking away their weapons.

    Valkyr gets... an invuln ability that forces her into a gimped melee weapon only and does its best to blind the player from seeing what is going on, and you can't keep it up indefinitely unlike the previously mentioned abilities.

    Ripline is pretty much worthless especially if you just mod bullet jumping, I don't get what the point of paralysis is since it only lasts long enough to execute a single enemy, or two I guess if you try to max out duration. That leaves warcry, an absurdly long cast time when you actually need it, and basically worthless when you don't since you'd probably rip more enemies apart in the time it takes you to cast the stupid thing.

    I suppose setting aside the balance issue is the fact that she's not really fun to play because of how little she brings compared to others. If you've already built an obscenely powerful weapon for warcry, you don't need Valkyr to at all to use it.

    =( I feelz your pain, she's fun to play so can't really give up on her. She has her scaling pro's, but it isn't a team-based thing usually unless you are trying to revive someone while not taking damage in hysteria. Haha

    Play solo, you'll avoid most of these issues.  Also there are mods to speed up cast time, as well as other abilities.  Nothing about her is weak, though.

    Modding in natural talent is ehh, I rather boost her warcry than have casting speed.

    My account is MR20, I've got almost 1000 hrs racked up..I love Valkyr and I'll insist I do find her 3 useful at times.  It's not a "Press 3 and kill everything" type of move, but that's fine.  I've got 3 weapons and her Talons to kill things with.  

    Also, Rhino's -3- is Roar, not his 2.  His 2 is Iron Skin, and that only serves HIM, just her Valk's 3 does for her.  Not everyone plays in squads.  I do usually, but again, I'm not everyone.

    I mean more power to you, I just never really come across a moment personally where I think in my head "oh shoots let me press 3." I have with her ripline..I guess cause she's my favorite frame I would personally like to see her get somewhere, but at the same time I don't mind to be that one person that plays her.

    What i like about Valkyr’s 3 is how she can insta - heal her self while she’s invincible when you combine Hysteria with Paralysis. Her three is useful for shield Lancers since it sets them to a finisher. 

    Valkyr is probably the most weapon focused melee frame in this game. Most of her abilities is focused on her/ allies Melee weapon instead of just enemies like Excalibur. So, she requires more active gameplay than most close ranged fighters which is fine for me.

    I think hysteria has built in finishers, cause I've gotten some insane numbers combined with the speed of warcry to activate those finishers. I also personally run lifestrike which is a dope combo to the eternal war build. So I am never really using her paralysis.

    Shields and Toxin is what you need to watch out for when giving teammate overshields. But i think Toxin’s damage gets reduced by Armor. Toxin on Valkyr would do less damage over time than a frame with less Armor. 

    Probably, haven't really tested toxic stacks for armor scaling dmg. Never really thought about it honestly. Though I may recollect that I don't think I have ever had a problem with Valkyr and toxic damage.

  7. 3 hours ago, VPrime96 said:

    One of the reason for that is EW. You have to do the work to keep the buff going for you and your Partners. If the Augment works the same for Allies (Her buff increasing when Teammates kill enemies), then People would enjoy having her in the team. But for right now, her WarCry Augment forces her to be Selfish.

    EDIT: I also noticed there's a lot of people who didn't enjoy Saryn's Rework and some enjoyed it so i hope DE don't do the same with Valkyr.

    Well I have no problem maxing out the buff timer on EW. It's just % armor isn't as valueable for most of the frames with very low armor values. So it falls off short for those low armor frames. Trinity overshields can retain more value than valks warcry for low armor frames.

  8. 20 minutes ago, VPrime96 said:

    Probably because people use Rhino for Eidolon Hunting because of his Damage buff. Not sure what kind of buff to give Paralysis since she already got the Armor buff and the Attack speed buff. But her Armor buff works better for frame that got a high base Armor already like Atlas and maybe Chroma. But squisher frames like Trinity and Banshee, It would help them take slightly less damage. Her Prime version got 700 Armor. Twice or less than three times more than Chroma and Rhino so her Armor buff works best for her.

    Exactly, which makes her queen of the solo. Which I am okay with, but nobody else appreciates the one person running off doing their own thing.

    dont compare warframe shields and enemy shields. Warframes allways have worst type of shields and armor.

    And on Index enemy have tons of shields and you probably using corrosive/toxic.

    Nah I actually use shield disruption mod aura, it works better. At least to my knowledge it has.

    Armor and Vitality are ALWAYS more important than Shields, because once shields are down, or if you have effects like Toxin bypassing shields (or Nightmare mode) you're screwed.

    As for why her Paralysis might seem "slow" to cast.  I believe the idea of using it in that way was to create one of those cinematic "slo-mo" moments you'd see in an action flick where the hero has a burst of speed and aggression and everything just slows down, throwing the enemy off-balance before the hero counter-attacks.

    Just a thought, though.

    Regardless, my gf has an unleveled base Valkyr (she's new to the game) and I hopped on and played out a Defense mission for her earlier and decimated everything, using entire kit, getting best numbers of the squad.

    That is NOT a brag, I'm just pointing out she has plenty of potential.  Her 3 came in handy quite often for CC. and her 2 helped me fight back and cut down the mobs as they crowded me. 

    I play Valkyr on my sorties and get numbers higher than everyone put together.. Meaning 70%, that all depends on the players and your teammates. If it's on your girlfriend's account you are probably playing with newbies to add on top of that! Late game Valkyr with maximum mods and I live off of eternal war. Paralysis does nothing good to me because when you are swarmed all the heavy mobs sit in the back. You can use your abilities as you see fitting, but most people will agree to say that her 3rd cast is not too viable.

    More of a harrow man myself BUT my GF loves it when i give her valkyr prime 50% crit chance unlimited power is attained well in the case of viciously killing things with melee attacks

    No but seriously, guys.
    We JUST have a massive S#&$storm because of the rework of a GOOD frame, with Saryn... And I don't want the same thing to happen again, especially to one of my main frames. x)

    Valkyr IS a good frame. Has always been. Let's keep it that way.

    I like her how she is despite taking all the nerfs, but her 3 is the biggest issue. It can be changed into something that is more team oriented. Look at rhino he sits on teams and presses 2 and buffs everyone nicely. People don't even consider Valk's 2 to be that great of a team buff. She doesn't need a complete rework like Saryn. 

  10. 2 minutes ago, NoLazyShadow said:

    Its exact oposite of that. Armor dont benefit shields at all.

    I'm just going based off the index. Harder to take down their shields and then health is like pop, dead. Would make sense if they don't got armor at any rate.

    Iron Skin has limited health, no matter how much it is.  Invincible = Infinite Health.  Infinity is always more than limited numbers.

    As for CC, use your weapons.  She's not a CC frame, persay.  It's apples and oranges.

    Regardless, I don't get why everyone has to be like "x frame is a weaker version of y frame!"

    Valkyr is Valkyr.  For her theme, she does a great job.  I enjoy playing with her, and never felt like "this is so trash".  Not once. 

    When I'm faced with a crowd, I can use her 2 and 3 and wipe 'em out.  4 if we're getting overwhelmed or I need to revive (before I had operator).  Her 1 is awesome for mobility, and just for the fun of pulling a "Scorpion" and yanking enemies around.

    It's all about mindset.  Is she the best for -everything-.  No, absolutely not.  But is she a fantastic frame than can hold her own?  Of freakin' course!

    Valkyr literally defined godmode years ago..So it's hard for old players to grasp her current state, because they enjoyed her game type in the past. She's still my favorite frame and is definitely my go to when I can play her if I am not leveling things up. She really isn't appreciated by lots of the community for team comps though. She literally doesn't need a total rework, just a small tweak on 3 itself would be great enough to bring her to the light. I'm not complaining, I am sure DE will get to her eventually.

    I think you're focusing on the wrong stat if you care about her shield. May I add you can also go into spoiler mode and deal with the nully? Don't force push a pull door without considering other methods. 

    Pretty sure shields are harder to damage than health, so can be beneficial.

    The wiki says Paralysis only costs 5 energy to cast. Is it outdated perhaps?

    Perhaps, but I run max blind rage and no flow, so it isn't cheap for all her abilities so need to be conservative. Especially for having shorter range.

    Getting Acolyte mods again would be my main goal again because i used to use Argon Scope, weeping wounds, nano Applicator, Maiming strike, Laser sight at my old account and i want to farm those again. Blood rush is farmable from Lua. 

    I don't have weeping wounds or nano-appliactor I don't think. Not sure if they are mods I would use.

    I already reached MR 14, I got every planet and the Void unlocked, Nightmare mode mod farmed, and most frames including Valkyr Prime. There's some Nodes i need to complete though. So i'm already good. The thing about Valkyr is she really don't need shields to survive with the current kit she have. Paralysis is the only ability she have that uses her shields to perform a finisher which fits her "Gnawing at the iron rim of their shields" theme as a Berserker.

    Oh then you are set. Someone told me baro is coming back during tennogen event thing with everything he has ever come out with.. I don't know how much is that true, but stock up on ducats and get ready to buy everything you don't have.My shield is probably always down on Valkyr with all the damage I take.

     

    2 hours ago, Kinetos said:

    Sure, but I don't like it changing up and down as the ability expires and recasts and depends on energy or enemy density. I've just put Fury on Arca Titron, built a Zaw about the speed of that modded AT which won't need Fury, and just use Galatine at default speed which is good for me, with Tempo Royale.

    if they ever get Dark Split-Sword to split mid mission, then I might change my mind about variable attack speed.

    I like going berserk with the insane attack speeds.

    After making a new account for my newest Laptop, i don't have Access to my Old one in Warframe (Starting from the beginning sucks). I only used her in the Index when i was completing the Glast Gambit Quest. After that, i didn't really cared. Energy is what i always want for my Valkyr since i rely on her abilities to stay alive.

    Try to recover it! It would be worth the effort. Having super little low shield you kind of need her energy to survive.Especially since I find shields take less damage than flat health.

     

    3 minutes ago, Kinetos said:

    I did use EW early on, my build had it sitting right next to Prolonged. The Armor buff on Warcry is certainly attractive, especially as a team buff if it were flat instead of percent, but I find the attack speed disruptive, but I mentioned an idea about that already.

    Might have an idea for Paralysis buff/change if there's a feedback thread.

    A flat armor buff would be amazing. Not really sure about any other threads. I am still learning about the forums. Never really jumped on it before the past.

    I reached that high when i was using my old account so i had Primed mods on my Melee and Valkyr Prime. I tried reaching the same level with the stuff i have now and i just couldn't. I must've been burned out of high level runs Solo. I use her Lethal Spin attacks too and Valkyr is probably the only Exalted weapon Melee frame with a Charge attack.

    Darn what happened to your old account? I would test it out, but I don't know if my mentality can stay in a survival for over an hour straight at this point. I wonder how she does in the index. There's a lot of energy issues there and not enough mobs for an eternal war build.

    My friend loves his Hysteria, I just cant stand it when I can do the same thing with slightly different modding while also benefitting from a good riven mod and far wider reach. It is certainly not a useless skill, it just isnt for everyone.

    I just love polearms, it is the only long ranged melee I really like. The animations are just too damn cool and the flow of it is just perfect for me. But yeah she doesnt really have energy issues, especially with a EW build since she can benefit greatly from adrenaline or rage. If they severely reduced the cast time on Paralysis I would use it alot more. I dont understand why it is as slow as it is when many other frames have the same type of skill that is just much much faster.

    I never thought of that...That's a great idea, to reduce the cast time of paralysis, and maybe even energy cast. Then I would definitely consider using it.. For some reason all her abilities take too long to cast. I have died during the hysteria casting back in my earlier days cause of the casting time, haha..

     

    1 hour ago, Kinetos said:

    I play her a lot. I hardly use any abilities. I don't like Hysteria as a weapon, and I don't like melee attack speed turned up to 11 million.

    I do like 700 base armor, her passives, and Ripline as a mobility tool. Quite a lot. Or I wouldn't play her at all since Inaros exists. He's durable, opens finishers, heals himself and others, and has cc, just less mobility.

     Warcry is mostly fine, I just don't like the speed increase, but I have a simple idea I posted earlier in a Volt feedback thread that would let me use the ability without taking the attack speed away from you.

    Paralysis is bad, 3rd ability, opens up finishers, inferior to 1st and 2nd abilities on other frames that open finishers, less range less duration, and not enough damage to be significantly different because of having it. And yet it's the ability I use most after Ripline... I used to use Prolonged Paralysis but even with that it's just not a good enough cc ability, so I took it off for more armor probably.

    Hysteria is just... A complete downgrade from any equipable melee I would otherwise use. I don't need the invulnerability, it has no range, targeting and animations are the most awkward in the game such that it's the only non arch melee that requires auto targetting, which is unwanted on everything else. I'm hoping melee 3.0 will help with all of that, and maybe separate modding will allow swapping in other stances. Even if the innate stance is improved, personalization is good.

     

    You got lots of mixed feelings here! There's plenty of love and then there is the flat out disappointment. If you haven't tried eternal war it sounds like your kind of ally. I stack armor mods with power strength mods on her to make her viable in high level content. Valkyr's paralysis is an extremely down-graded version of banshee's silence. In fact if she had banshee's silence that would make her really valuable, or make it that she gets an attack buff more even more destruction.I just love the concept of hysteria, and invulnerability can be nice. We just need to cross our fingers with melee 3.0. Hope for the best, expect the worst.

     

    1 hour ago, VPrime96 said:

    Well, There's good news to you. Exalted Weapons is going to be seperately modded. So you can rely on your best build for her Talons and your Melee weapon without interrupting her damage.

    I hope so! I haven't really got a slight clue about anything with the exalted weapons. Didn't look much into melee 3.0

    Valkyr's primed skin is one of the nicest looking skins I own tbh.

    Valkyr is the best melee frame hands down imo. Warcry augment is amazing infinite fast af boi swinging galatine prime not to mention adding arcane strike and arcane fury she can swing that thing so fast.

    Her 4th ability is something I strongly wish for a revisit by making it not a invincibility ability bc she gets innate life steal already, with a tradeoff being power strength gives a multiplier to melee damage while in her 4th ability. Maybe add a augment towhere she rips energy from robotics aswell.

    Yo it is a really nice skin! They definitely made her nicely. I agree she's queen of melee, stack a rhino buff on her and she will redefine a massacre. I think most people like hysteria how it is, but that energy siphon would be interested aspect that could be added to her 3rd. Her 3rd really cripples her whole hit. I only ever press 3 to hear her scream differently.

    Yo I got no problem with her! She's my baby. She just could use a tweaking to make her get some more love from the player-base.

    Regardless if you're to be taken serious or not, putting out statements like "DE hates Valkyr" doesn't exactly project the idea of a healthy discussion, neither is addressing anyone who calls you out on it as a "Keyboard hero"

    Can't exactly blame people with nothing to hide but hate behind their keyboards when your post is an open invitation to them.

    I am not gonna restate that opinions are expressed differently throughout people. We don't think the same thoughts, so be conservative to others expressions. My title is completely sarcastic and not serious if you actually read everything, I even stated this at the very bottom. Ever read a news title? They are suppose to catch attention, but push them away. Lots of good discussions going on already, then a few people wanna be all excited. I didn't label anyone a keyboard hero, they labeled themselves when they start getting excited to come after me 😊. Who's the next contestant?

    It is trivial to not step into a bubble and melee it down.

    Nah it isn't but there definitely should be some form of counter-measure to them being a in your face frame. If I didn't run rage mod on her for energy Valkyr would be almost useless at higher levels (In my opinion).

    I mainly use Eternal War but i got a Hysteria build for killing Bosses and a Prolonged Paralysis build for Rivens or if i want to have fun with her. The highest level i gotten her was at lvl 170 - 190 in a team and Solo. I'm one of those guys who enjoys Spin2Win (RIP in Melee 3.0) so I focus on killing as many enemies as i can unti i need to heal. If DE rework the Combo Counter for Melee Exalted weapons after Melee 3.0, then she won't be affected by it.

    I got a hysteria build, but I never really use it, mainly cause I can pop hysteria with eternal war for a short period of time to revive people/kill extreme enemies and emergency cast. That's very impressive to get in solo, I feel like I would run out of life support in solo haha.. Her crit damage on her spin attack is insane, so hopefully 3.0 doesn't cripple her. We won't really know till the final set of info gets dropped.

    Well..i can undestand DE here. Trinity is old school suport with useless heath vail...or what ever its called(i dont remember -_-), easy acsess to infinite energy supply and link(some people abuse it to create "nuke" trinity). If i recall there was a little discussion about that back in Tennocon 2016. But still Valkyr is in no good shape at all. She is old school melee tank with synergy problems back from update 11 and bad survivability on high lvl, nefred ult with "bad" design(i dont think god mode is good idea). Trinity can wait. Valk needs this rework more than Trinity

    Yup it's useless heal, but she's actually one of the most favored frames with her skill set. So ignoring that #1 cast can be done for a year or two if they wanted to. She survives really well in high level play, but like I said maybe cause I got a lot of mods and they are all maxed to keep her going, but she isn't an ideal team character for higher play. Especially since steel charge is a huge thing for her and everyone wants corrosive projections. I love her "god mode" I think it brings character to her lore.

    IMO, Ripline don't seem to Synergize with Valkyr's abilities. I know WarCry increases the speed of her Claws and her animation when she do a finisher in Hysteria, Paralysis lets Valkyr heal back to full health after she performed a finisher in Hysteria and do a lot of Finisher damage, and Hysteria allows Valkyr to Revive Teammates in Safety. But Ripline, It just don't do any different with her other abilities beside pulling the enemies too hard but it's good for Mobility in the Void, Lua, and POE so it's not Terrible, it just wierd. I do think Valkyr's Synergy is forced like Old Saryn. But i love how I don't have to sacrifice a damage mod for healing with Valkyr and with the Nullifiers, clawing the bubble before the Crewman works with Valkyr. I've done that against 20 lvl 120+ Corrupted Nullifiers in the Simulacrum when i was using my old account even without Reach or Primed Reach. Updating the Info section would be fine though.

    Ripline doesn't synergize with her abilities, but I can't say it's not used, because frankly it is used more than paralysis to travel across the map (IMO), but with parkor it isn't really as useful..So yes, really weird. Warcry is amazing for the attack speed boost, but the problem with that is sometimes that crazy fast attack speed pushes you right in the bubble of the nuli with a short weapon. Paralysis is useless in my play style because I don't rock flow for energy build up, but rather rage/that new energy re-gen mod from plains and combo it with lifestrike. So I run around with eternal war and fight even level 100+ mobs grouped up. I like to mod my Valkyr with power strength and focus around eternal war. That's why I think paralysis is useless. Her info section just caught my attention as I was bored during the updating lol..

    I know right? Can't have a better booty than Valkyr.

    TBH, With how many frames there's that need more work (Looking at you, titania), I won't be surprised if DE ignore Valkyr for a while.

    I agree! She definitely shouldn't have priority. I am content with her play style. I waited for her prime version to come out since 2014 and am glad that finally came by. Was hoping she had a whole new kit since primed versions are apparently warframe original's and Valkyr was modded by the Zanuka project.and has her abilities based off the torture(Hence the screaming on ability cast). That's all lore vs game content though.

  22. 38 minutes ago, NoLazyShadow said:

    well finaly. Im not alone in this mess. everyone ignore Valk. She have a ton of problems for years, yet no rework, no tweaks..no love form community, no tennogen skins. DE god f**** damm it, do something abot that allready! Give her good rework, turn mid lvl melee frame in unstopable rage machine with good survivability

    Her popularity is under-rated and sometimes disfavored. There are many Valkyr lovers out there. I don't think she needs a mandatory rework like some other frames do, but she definitely could down the road with her kit would be lovely. With melee 3.0 coming out this can be a huge change for Valkyr players, hopefully for the good. 

    With that said I am disappointed that apparently Trinity is next on the rework list.. She's already one of top picked team frames as everyone needs someone for EV or bless and links became in use with nuke trinity.

    I'm one of those players that simply avoid hysteria when playing Valkyr. I prefer Eternal Warcry and a weapon of my choice that actually has some reach. The few times I use Hysteria would be if I need a panic heal or something, otherwise I just cant stand the short reach crap of the skill.

    I love eternal warcry build, but I am also not a fan of longer ranged weapons. So I love using broken war, which limits her range on the whole Nuli's aura. With that said I never have energy issues, just a simple recast and it's on again. Hence why I said she doesn't really need a buff. Paralysis is just not ever really used haha..
