TheZkiller9 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) I've been playing Warframe for a while and one of my main issues is that nothing obtainable is truly unique . Those of you who played Pokemon know what it feels to get something exceptional, like Feebas. So here's what I'm proposing: add 3 legendary weapons (primary, secondary and melee) that are super difficult to get and would come from rare encounters in missions (something like the Stalker, but much rarer and 10 times more difficult), and even when you kill the thing coming after you in the encounter, make the parts stupidly rare. Also the parts shouldn't be tradable and the weapon itself should require crazy amounts of resources to craft. What do you guys think about this? I don't really care about how you obtain these weapons as long as you don't have to repeat the same node over and over. Edit: I now realize the method of acquisition I suggested above was horrible, however, I still think the idea of the weapons itself is good. Also, by unique, I mean very special and not "one of a kind" Edited October 17, 2018 by TheZkiller9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Errodin Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) Nope for me for several reasons ... DE's been tailoring game-play and content obtain-ability to newer players lately, and content like your suggesting are similar to the Brakk and Detron, which for the most part can take weeks to months to grind for based on RNG. Then locking it behind a word like exclusivity triggers the founder try-hards ... all in all not worth the upset it would cause.

I don't see why it would put a lot of people off. It would just be something for the veterans who have been playing for a while to passively get as they play. They're just 3 weapons too, and there's no real PVP aspect in Warframe so even if they are strong, it wouldn't really matter because they won't affect the gameplay experience for other players?

I suppose any time now DE can just drop something like Paracesis, and put 1000 nitain extract instead of 1000 ducats. It might take years to farm.

DeathDweller Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I don't know what year you played Pokemon but when i used to play you just had to wait for the rain to catch a Feebas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firetempest Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 The login weapon rewards. It takes hundreds of days. Is kinda rare for most players to end up with all of them. You just don't have to hit 4 when the hunter spawns because x10 the difficulty of stalker is still 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do have a point with rivens, but I was thinking something like a weapon would be cooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabbynaru Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Yeah... No. I still don't have a Brakk after 3200+ hours, and you're demanding something worse than that? I'm sorry, but bull***t RNG does not really fill me with a sense of pride and accomplishment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loza03 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I'd make them guaranteed acquisition, but hide them behind something like a raid. Or perhaps hide one behind first-time completion, and two others behind certain achievements in said raid? Something that acts as kind of a marker for 'end game player'.

Please elaborate, how is "super difficult to get", that "which comes from a rare encounter" and a "very high difficulty" is a passive way to get the reward as you simply play the game?

I mean, I don't really know if the method of acquisition that I suggested was good. I think there could be other ways where it's very difficult without having to rely too much on RNG? Something like an extremely difficult boss fight that even a group of coordinated veterans with top gear could not go through easily? I don't know man, I'm just brainstorming here. As for the Brakk thing, I think that's weird because I was able to get one within like ~500 hours tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whirl89 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I wouldn't care as long as the weapon have horrible stats and are absolute trash tier. It has to be a weapon you want because you want it not because its good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolDudeMcCool Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) Zaws and kitguns are your "unique" weapons. War isn't unique, it's identical to every single War out there. Your theoretical legendary weapons aren't unique, they're identical to every other player's legendary weapons. Hard to get does not mean unique. Zaws and kitguns are the closest we have to unique, and I doubt anything else is going to go further than that. And this suggestion would totally piss people off, it's just not a good idea.
