Jin_Lightning Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) Valiant-The Noble Protector I've always toyed with the idea of a Knight-based Warframe, especially after Livestream #15. They mentioned not making all designs for Tenno strictly oriental, and I think this concept could be the spearhead in that vision. This idea was inspired by the 'Guardian' profession from 'Guild Wars 2'. Abilities 1) Radiant Burst: Valiant releases a burst of energy that does AoE damage, and stuns for a very short time. Affected by Focus and Stretch. 2) Armour of The Defender: A party-wide buff that raises all party member's armour rating. Affected by Continuity/Constitution (When Armour 2.0 comes out, I think this would be exceptional.) 3) Safeguard: Valiant throws up his cape and blocks incoming frontal damage. When this power ends, it releases a healing burst to those within range. This would also give a downed played a percentage of their revive meter, maybe 20-40%, depending on the skill's rank. Affected by Continuity/Constitution, (Shield only) and Stretch (Healing burst only). 4) Final Vengeance: Valiant's gauntlets transform into a Sword and Shield, and allows him to go on a melee rampage. Affected by Focus and Continuity/Constitution. Another thing I specificly put into the design of Valiant, is that he doesn't have a "push 1 button, kill everything" skill. A frame designed in support, but a frontline combatant could be very fun to use. Leave comments and feedback if you like, or dislike my idea. -Jin Edit: I've changed the #3 skill from the original name, 'Martyr' to 'Safeguard'. I wasn't thinking of martyr in the correct sense. Edit again: I added an extra part to Safeguard. Edited October 7, 2013 by Jin_Lightning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EganMC Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Nice. I only have one issue. Change the name of the 3 skill. A martyr is someone who dies to support a cause, and becomes a hero. Atleast in most senses. This isn't dying, it's blocking. Otherwise, it's a decent frame idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FissionStorm Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Sounds cool. Except that it may need to be something other than a cape for Martyr, given that so far, scarves are the only apparel with physics and are plat only. Regardless, now i want a cape, especially black for ash.And now i picture this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nekros has his own unique visual items, and I think EVERY Warframe should have something like that. For example, Ash should hav the option to have Shurikens all over him, for his skill 1. I can't think of others right now though. -Jin Edited October 3, 2013 by Jin_Lightning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N7Arthur Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 A question about Safeguard, can you still attack while you have your cape up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jin_Lightning Posted October 3, 2013 Author Share Posted October 3, 2013 A question about Safeguard, can you still attack while you have your cape up? No, it's a rooting ability, but it would be perfect for a 'defend the box' type of situation. Or covering a teammate who's trying to revive a downed teammate. -Jin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-FV-Dasheroo Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) i agree 100% we need more frames that dont have a "press 4 to win" button, and we also need frames that utilize the games melee mechanics, we ARE ninjas masters of melee combat. i give you 100% support on this Jin. Also a question, how will power duration work on armor of the defender, would it increase the duration of the ability or the amount of armor that is added?

Jin_Lightning Posted October 3, 2013 Author Share Posted October 3, 2013 Why, thank you, Dash. Continuity/Constitution would only affect the duration of Armour of The Defender. -Jin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jin_Lightning Posted October 18, 2013 Author Share Posted October 18, 2013 Now that Galatine is out, this frame+that weapon I think would look absolutely awesome. -Jin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jin_Lightning Posted October 26, 2013 Author Share Posted October 26, 2013 You came to this topic, read it fully, and the only contribution you had to it, was to point out that I have a signature? Don't look at it then. Relevant news: My buddy thinks that the cape could be a seperate visual item, like Necros's unique scarf. -Jin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
