Marakai Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 I know vets who play level 200+ enemies may see her different but as a fairy new player I am really tired of just baby sitting next to Saryns who just press 2 keys and I just see Affinity numbers pop out around map. 99% of Saryns just stand in middle of map and spam one-two abillity. I know they are other AOE nukers- but many of them start to scale bad at around 80+ lvl with their nukes from what I have seen, but Saryn damage is toxic and corrosive so she scales probably best with content making even fun missions/events with high level enemies trivial and boring. Many times me and other 3 players on Onslaught or Survival/Defense just stand and hope we can kill something or use our "non-AOE-map nuke-press-one-button" abilities before Saryn kills whole map using so much skill as pressing 2 buttons. I know Saryn is not alone, Equinox can do something simillar, Octavia can afk, Ember was a problem with it but I heard she was nerfed long time ago. Anyway I don't understand why DE design those frames with such brainless gameplay. It's not only not fun to play with such frames as other less-AOE frames (or non-meta frames general), it makes mission trivial, boring and not challanging. Not to mention it's a very selfish design since it does nothing for team apart from taking away fun. Veterans might don't care, I understand- different perspective. But from new player point of few (+ my friends who also started WG with me) it's just not fun to play with. This is just my opinion as new player.

This has to do with simply understanding basic stuff. You are joining public matches, you are joining random groups. It's just obvious that you will get paired with someone playing a nuke. It's just about chances... If you don't like that playstyle, just make your own custom groups without nukes. It's that easy. And then try to effectively do missions against level 100+ enemies. Sure, weapons can kill these enemies aswell. But missions take way more time this way. And stuff like Survival becomes unplayable, because your kill-speed just drops at one point or another. If this is fun for you, power to you. As I said, play solo or with a custom group. You don't like the nuke-playstyle. Nukes may don't like your "boring" playstyle. Accept the fact that everyone has their own way of playing. Don't try to force your way on to others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltage Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 (edited) If you dislike how others play the game, you can form a squad with specific players or play alone. Saryn and Equinox are not the problem, you just dislike efficient players being matched with you as they will rush the mission whether it is Capture, Exterminate, Defense, etc. You simply can't impose your way of playing on other people. This is an endless loop of discussion as there are two sides that are not in the wrong, and Digital Extremes cannot do much to combat this. We have seen changes to Mag, Saryn, Ash, Ember, Mesa, Excalibur, Frost, Limbo, and more. Nothing will stop an efficient player from speed-running, nuking, or other gameplay styles that quickly finish missions.

NO frame should be able to wipe an entire map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warframe in nature is a hack and slash looting 3rd person shooter. There is no scenario where you can maintain the atmosphere of this game and limit everything within ~30 meters of the player. Taking on hoards of enemies in large areas is one of the major selling points of the gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIREEK Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 When presented with the lack of ability to keep up, you reveal yourself as the kind of player you are, saryn cannot kill nullifiers or arbitration shield drones, some enemies are harder to kill, boxes exist, you can heal, you can buff, you can collect loot, you can find caches, stars and ayatan statues. If you can't do 1 thing, then pick 1 of the other 20 to do, if you feel hopeless and your intention is to afk, then neither you nor your account will last long.

_DapperDanMan_ Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Using the phrase "veterans don't care" is an ignorant one (no offense) Veterans know the progression of frames over time including nerfs and buffs and the reason you won't hear much complaining about it is because we know at one point, she was far worse. This applies to most frames and weapons. Some players just want to feel powerful or show off for newbies. Somejust want to be more efficient and clear the mission as fast as possible. Some frames have NO buisness in lower level missions tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all due respect I disagree- even in games like Diablo or POE you need to at least press same button a lot of times and maintain a lot of other stuff- like aggro, self heal etc. In Dynasty warrios, vermintide, even ME3 multiplayer- you don't just press one button standing still and delete whole map. Pressing one button once or two buttons once is hardly "hack n slash". It's "stand and splash" maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changing the range of Saryn will not stop the scenario you dislike. Players who enjoy this playstyle will use other items. The pace of a player is unique per player. Finding players with your expectations/standards results in a more enjoyable experience. The issue here is matchmaking, not specific builds. The effectiveness of nuking is not the Warframe, but the player and their mindset. If an efficient player wants to nuke a map, they will accomplish that goal. If they could not, they would not be playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGrimCorsair Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Yeah, they severely overshot the mark rebalancing Saryn. Allowing her spores to propagate themselves when they are an enemy that dies under the effects of her 4 while allowing them to ignore LOS to propagate, as well as allowing her 4 to ignore LOS is all very much excessive.

DSkycroft Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 This kind of thing will always be an issue in Warframe. Something will be powerful to the point it hurts the experience of others. There will be those who want it changed so they can participate,and those who want it to stay the same so they can continue to easy-mode every mission. DE will cater to one side,and the other will continue to be bitter about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryDude Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Dont be sad man this is normal, some peoples dont know nothing about team play or cooperation, they care only about themselves and their score to be best and hurry hurry finish missions with zero respect to new players or peoples who need some resources or wish to play as team best thing you can do is play solo or with your friends who knows something about team play .)

If an efficient player wants to nuke a map, they will accomplish that goal. If they could not, they would not be playing. In my opinion it's not a matter of playstyle but a balance- if one frame can trivialize whole map with one button while other frames have to run around, jump, shoot, slide, use their "non-map-AOE" abilities, actually managing their abilities durations, dodging enemies, avoiding huge group of enemies, synergizing their abilities for some combos, setting up etc- while frame like Saryns tand in middle and "1....4....... 1........4 ...... 1.......4". It's not playstyle- it's balance issue, when one frames makes other framers not do anything cause it can just delete maps like with snap of fingers. Warframe is (at least in core conception) a game when you have to use your full arsenal- movement, primary, secondary, elements, abilities, team-work. If one frame all have to do is sit and press 1 and 4 button - it's a serious balance issue for me. Again - my opinion. You are free to disagree of course.

She doesn't just press 1 button or 2. You have to maintain her spores once you place them by using your 3 and 4. You also have to balance your dmg. kill to fast you lose your spores, kill to slow and you get overrun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many threads you see about Excalibur being OP, Rihno, Banshee, Harrow, Ash, Volt, Frost etc. So if so many people see an issue- then maybe there is one. It's worth to think about it.

Wait wut saryn is actually a hard af dps to play compared to equinox. Keeping spore dmg up without decay is rlly hard at low lvl and at high lvl you need to contantly find the spored enemies 90 miles away and jump around the map. Spamming 4 on saryn stops working pretty early, so the spores are the real dps move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
