angias Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) From what i recall DE stated that weapons stats would be determined by it's rank requirement. So if we want stronger gears (on papers) we will have to accept they will require higuer rank. Personnally it does not bother me but for many, releasing new content behind rank requirement could annoy some people. Some people will also bring the subject of powercreep. Asking for MORE weapons in the high rank categorie. Edited June 21, 2019 by angias Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclouros Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 If it means getting stuff worth using and not just more MR fodder, sure. Gram Prime is MR14 and it's truly the king of melee. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)nerdlegend Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 According to the Wiki list https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Mastery_Rank#Equipment_Unlock Already have some higher ranked weapons, assuming you want 10-15+? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Hikuro-93 Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Good content is always welcome. If the weapon is truly good and usable, then please do bring it. And not just stronger damage-wise, Tigris style, new mechanics and new utilities. Which thankully DE is already doing with most latest weapons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artekkor Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 As long as its actually good - sure. Especially for grineer weaponry. There are VERY few actually good grineer weapons that get S#&$ done without a riven and i bums me the the #*!% out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost all new weapons oustide of prime variant of this years and last year are Bellow Rank 10 and most of them are rank 8. Almost everything that will come will be mr fodder and at best sidegrade to mid-tier weapons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever considered that Grineer weapons may be like that because they are a "low tech" (comparatively) faction based more around quantity of soldiers and cheap, massed produced weaponry? Their so called "weakness" may be on purpose to be "lore accurate", which is why only specially modified (i.e. Wraith or Prisma) Grineer guns are strong. 37 minutes ago, angias said: From what i recall DE stated that weapons stats would be determined by it's rank requirement.

SenariousNex Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 They won't do it because people on forums will start complaining if MR req. is higher than 15. Same reason we will never get endgame content. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same reason we will never get endgame content. Same people will complain about the lack of powerfull new gears or lack of endgame. Those who call for powercreep when something is 15% stronger than their weapon that is already oneshotting pretty much anything, most of them don't purposely make bad build in order to be challenged. Damage 3.0 was a very good balance bill and could have fixed half of the problems the game has. Now DE is stuck trying to avoid powercreep while catering to a Community that fear balance or challenge. At that point make new content worthwhile for seasoned players or fix the goddamn scalling and balance. Enough ranting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaPHENIX Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 When the MR system get's reworked out of the tedious grind it is now, I will be fine with it. The way it is now and likely to stay like that for a long time, no. Why do I see it as tedious? It forces you to get gear that you are not interested in, so that you can get the gear which you actually want. You can say that about other games, but it feels worse here. When I get bored enough sure, I will pick up some random thing and play around with it, maybe I will end up liking it, maybe I will just throw it in the trash after it's rank 30. That's not a good mastery system. ”I fear not the tenno who has used 10,000 weapons once, but I fear the tenno who has used one weapon 10,000 times.” - John ''Prodman'' Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all in for having MR-locked weapons, but of course it shouldn't reach the high MR Spheres. Anything above MR15-18 would be way too high imo.

I considered it now. And i think its bullS#&$. I like to think that grineer are actually competent at making their stuff, even if it looks like it was made out of what they've found on a junkyard. Otherwise we would be seeing grineer guns jamming in the field without the help of Mesa. And you can't win a battle if your guns can't even hurt the opponents. Not to mention how they slowly introduce new, more complicated and better made weaponry like those PoE tanks, which means even if they sucked at it before - surely they are figuring out that quality matters too if they starting fielding units like that. And also grineer do not overwhelm by numbers. That's the core trait of Infestation. The theme of grineer is raw power, as opposed to corpus theme of high-tech tactical superiority (mines, traps, drones, nulifiers, etc.) Except for some reasons their weapons do not represent that in any way. Well... They do in the way they function and sound, but the stats are almost universaly S#&$. The Hek, Tonkor and Zarr is probably the best their arsenal has to offer and that's it (and hek needs a syndicate mod). To be fair, corpus weapons are not that much better either, although they have about twice the ammount of "exceptions". (And i do not count upgraded variants like vandal or wraith). Ultimately everything gets overshadowed by Prime Master Race, because orokin had the big brain. Thankfully, my old friend Baro occasionaly baths grineer weapons in the void (how did he ever came up with that?) and somehow that makes them better, but i do not question his methods, since his, uh, "products" actually get S#&$ done.

Autongnosis Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) il y a 10 minutes, AlphaPHENIX a dit : Yes, but that doesn't excuse the bad execution of the system I once thought of a system that gave diminishing mastery returns up to the cap. Something like 100 per level on first rank up, 50 on 2nd, 25 on third, 13 on 4th etc, and maybe some other metric like 1 mastery point every 100 kills. Basically that way you can either master everything or master a lot of stuff and use it for a long time.

844448 Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 One question though, what is the purpose on higher MR weapons? Is it for stronger stats or something that is hard to master but fun and does the job? Because there are only 2 outcomes for many Weapon is stronger : POWERCREEP!!!1!1 Weapon is normal : OMG useless weapon, MR fodder.

Getting MR points for doing more stylish kills (while sliding, while aim gliding, ect.) were mentioned, if I remember it right. Might have been 2-3 years ago by now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SneakyErvin Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I dont see a problem with them adding more weapons up to MR15. We all know how powerful the weapons are at that level and below. We certainly dont need stuff beyond MR15 because that would simply be too much power creep for no real reason whatsoever. And even with the MR8 weapons we've gotten, some are good and some are bad. Fulmin is a great piece of equipment in the full auto category, but the semi mode is horribly lacking (except on Ivara). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nesodos Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Would be nice to get a new meta weapon once in a while. The problem right now is that most meta weapons are easy to use with high output while most new weapons are unique but either lack output or are just horrible to use.
