Because while I agree that the spawn rate and drop table can be improved, I don't agree with you on the wolf being impossible to kill for rather obvious reasons. I also reject all claims that we need a complete loadouts filled with primed mods, or must take only the meta to succeed. I also am not going to pander to anyone trying to blame their failures on the RNG plotting to only attack when everyone is unprepared. And yes, if the wolf is taking forever to kill, you need to assign a significant portion of the blame on the players in your squad. And again let's make sure that we are crystal clear on this, the wolf's spawn rate dgaf whether you are prepared or not. His spans are randomized events. Cognitive bias is making you think that he spawns when you are unprepared, because you were unprepared when he spawned. Your cognitive bias is wrong. 56 minutes ago, maddragonmaster said: plus half of the reason this has carried so long is because some of us felt insulted with the bit "oh so your where unprepared? it was your fault, game was working fine." and then you preceded with what i felt like a was some way of insulting our intelligence when we fully know whats going on. Whose fault is it that you were unprepared? Why didn't you take appropriate weapons? Why didn't you level up at least part way in the sanctuary? Why didn't you make use of the environment to deal with him? Why didn't any of your squad carry anything that could have dealt with him? If you think that pointing out that you chose to go in unprepared, when that's exactly what you did, is insulting then you have a really bad idea of what the word insulting means. And here's a thing, if you think that you know fully well what's going on and are blaming the RNG for your failures, claiming that it's not random and is plotting against you, then it's not a stretch to see why you would think that someone is insulting you when they are pointing out that you just weren't prepared when you should have been.

As i said most players i was playing with were pretty much carried when we faced him so you only need to not play alone, or just get some plat to buy his terrible hammer (or even wait DE to implement a farmable Wolf next).

Guest Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 (edited) Some stuff I want to chip in and say (because I thought it was a glitch but it stayed around). DE is aware of certain maps being "leveling maps". I have found today that groups are coming into these maps (2-3 people) on full leveled warframes, making your purchase of affinity boosters redundant, and ripping the map apart trying to force spawn wolf. They totally waste your time (as mostly people are leveling weapons) because they have heard "wolf spawns on hydron". To me, that makes no sense. I think as a map, these leveling locations see more "player time" so more players talk about seeing him there. But I have seen wolf in survivals on Void just as much as in Helene or Hydron. Wolf is not like the wolves, Fugatives Farm, that can be forced. I have no problem trading for wolf parts etc, but I have a huge problem with him ruining actual play by forcing him onto people with unleveled gear and warframes. I have spend 10 minutes on multiple occassions, with a full team of people on hydron or helene just bashing into him trying to kill him because everyone has everything unleveled. Its very frustrating and makes you hate those maps unneccessarily. If warframe is not going to give you LEVELING LOCATIONS within technical names, please respect that the players find these locations and need them like they would in any game. If you are making people level things, and not giving specific locations mapped out (which is fine), please do not throw high level bosses into it "for kicks" knowing we cant kill them (except after 10-20 minutes of trying, to then mostly just get mods as rewards).

If he hasnt appeared by the 5 minute mark i just complete the mission if its a pug, thing is if your trying to farm him most if not ALL missions should basically last at max the 5 minutes normally. 5 wave of defense is roughly 5 minutes in a group, a Sedna exterminate or spy mission solo is basically 5 minutes if you arent mega aoe rushing it... group missions tend to go alot quicker but i tend to deliberately slow down to eek out as much time as possible in any pubs im in (although you do occasionally get that lol i kill everything instantly volt or equinox that doesnt give a damn). I aim for finishing the mission around the 4:30 minute mark usually and it tends to be like most of the time solo or in a pub (sans god damn sayrns, volts or equinoxs speed running a pub). Got rid of my G3 mark just now so ill hope for maybe a increased spawn chance since his wont be competing with some other assassins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)AllOrNothinDays Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I think it could be salvaged if they address how this replaced alerts but not really. 1. If this is to replace alerts you need to add some alert rewards on top of that. At the very least a small cache of resources you are rewarded for completing a challenge. I don't need them considering how far along I am but it doesn't mean new players don't survive off them like I did when I first started. Either that or allow 1 wolf point to be traded for such and such a resource but I think it would be better if they got the resource for the challenge itself over having to spent what they will likely need to go towards catalysts and such. 2. If this is to replace alerts, stop with challenges a new player can't possibly compete. 3. Challenges that just are insulting to the time you have. 60 minute survival? What happened to all that bite sized content talk? It's not only an insult to your time but the 5000 standing reward? That's it? Also the challenges that can proven to be broken because the mission bugs out so you waste all your time for nothing. 4. Challenges that involve friends. If you must, change it from friends/clan to "squad" meaning a random pug and you can complete the mission. Me personally? I don't like talking to kids, I know not only kids play this game but I run into a lot of kids or people who seem like they can't type in English so I bypass all of that when I can. I'm in a clan that's pretty much dead but I'm so far ahead when it comes to resources that I just drop by the dojo and create everything myself and go about my business and don't interact with anyone. I just like to play my game, I don't have a lot of time to go through the headaches involved. I grouped up randomly once to do the profit taker challenge and soon as we get to orb valis someone in the group is asking about what the archwing weapon launcher thing is and I just face palmed and took them 10 minutes to figure out the guy needed to leave. Anyway just axe that part of the challenge, they add nothing. 5. The wolf can soak up way too much damage for a random enemy you have no control of the spawn rate of. It's not a challenge, whenever I've encountered him in pugs at a high level we're all just wasting so much time chipping away at its health, to the point new players think there is some sort of gimmick when it's just a mindless shoot him until he drops game. I know you don't want him as easy as the stalker but come on now. 6. I have over 100 nitain and as the system is now.. I don't know if it can be acquired readily enough for new players compared to how it used to be. Sure it was random if you kept an eye out when you were on you could get them over time. Now? Ehh. This isn't just about nitain though but I think.. there is some good with how everything is now but I think you're pushing too much for people to grind for something that they could have acquired so easily in the past that I see it becoming an issue.. I dunno. If I was a new player I'd personally be very turned off by how it is structured. 7. Last thing.. if I signed in randomly to check warframe out and came in while this season was ending. I'd be so disheartened that I'd probably never sign back in. I mean, unless you have a good plan for those who can't acquire everything because they were late for the game, I don't know this sits well for them. It's one thing to miss an event but another for something that is ongoing and you kind of see the rewards you can't possibly get now and maybe to no fault of your own but this can be fixed I guess by allowing the items such as the armor and he mods popping up at random to be purchased via points? Maybe, I dunno. I'm just wondering how you will deal with this because I'd be so salty if I signed in during this and couldn't get the armor or the umbra forma or whatever, just my two cents. IMO, if all the challenges were bland things you could complete without even noticing it would be for the best. IE. Kill ____ enemy Kill enemies using ___ element. Bullet Jump ____, no 60 minute survival nonsense. I think there are enough tasks in the game that adding another reaches the point where you give us stuff to do that isn't adding to the game for us and we start to resent it. I can only speak for myself personally but listen, I've done silver grove, I have no more need to scan for stuff then make the thing to do the thing blah blah. I did it once, got it over with so I didn't have to do it again. What purpose does it serve to make someone like me do that all over again? What good does it serve me doing 8 of the easiest plain bounties if I'm just sick of that map and don't want to go there anymore? It kind of makes me not want to play at all. That's just my personal take on the matter. If by the end of the week I check my list and I've done all the tasks organically just by playing I think the system would be better overall and if you want to make challenges so you can be ahead I think that's fine but meh, 5000 standing for 60 minutes of my time? Come on. Oh btw, don't be giving us a reward of 3 forma again then have a challenge telling us to use it, that's bad form and it ends up not being a reward at all.

Oh but I already disagree with you wrt his being difficult to kill. Perhaps if you take the advice that's been repeatedly given, you'll realise how very unprepared you have been choosing to be. Regarding his spawn rate, I personally want it to be increased significantly if we can't have a beacon system or other guaranteed spawn. Now... Do you want to guess how that would go down after the "setting them off" we've had so far? My guess is that good players wouldn't be too unhappy with more chances to farm the ridiculously rare drops, and unprepared players would riot ineffectively. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did come out of DE's mouth. 6% in level 20+ missions, 4% in lower missions, and 0% in special zones including sanctuary, free roam, assassination missions. Again just because a belief is common that doesn't make it true. The bit about the brick wall, yes I've been doing that for quite a while now.
