motorfirebox 8,378 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I'd really like to see some Tennogen bow skins. The skin options right now don't really suit me—Dryad is cool, but doesn't fit my fashionframe. Possible to add bows to Tennogen? 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Sahiratu 127 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 YES, please. Dude, I've been waiting for it for so long... Now that a lot of people use Bramma and other bows got buffed would be a great time to have tennogen skins. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Goosmo 1,417 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Sounds like a good idea. All bows share the same animations, so i don't see why this shouldn't be possible. Link to post Share on other sites
Methanoid 3,793 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 probably low on everyone's list given that bows are rarely used. Link to post Share on other sites
Gemenai 444 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Bows and sword&shield are on top of my wishlist for tennogen. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
gabuchan 188 Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 I'm gonna guess that with all the people picking up the Lenz and the Bramma post-mainline update that bow usage would skyrocket. They're bound to let this happen soon (I hope lol) Link to post Share on other sites

The negative but most likely correct answer 😕 It wouldn't be a hot seller. Limited number of bows - and low usage 😞 Edited March 3, 2020 by (PS4)Zuzu_with_a_Z Link to post Share on other sites

It's more about whether or not it's technically possible. If that was the case, then you wouldn't be able to create Fists, Tonfa, Stave, or even Gorgon skins. Not to say there probably wasn't a time where they were popular or mostly used, but considering nowadays, it's not really the case. They just seem to allow skins for what they were able to give resources to. For example, the first Two-Handed Nikana weapon was added on March 2019, and 4 months later you would be able to create 2H Nikana skins through TennoGen. Not to say the Tatsu didn't have its fair share of usage upon release, but I'm not so sure after its 1st month of being in the game. Also, it's not just about Excalibur's usage being a factor for a lot of his skins. It's also about how long he has been in the game, how it's easier to create skins for him (simpler body to work with), and him obviously being the poster boy which attracts more attention. Speaking of technicality and possibility of Bow skins, I think it could be definitely possible, but I'd also imagine it come with its fair share of key restrictions. Even though all Bows seem to use the same animations, DE would probably limit artists to follow a certain shape of where the string of the Bow is supposed to be, to prevent any sort of animation breaks within the weapon. Like you'd be able to design the weapon however you'd want, as long as the two ends of the string matchup with the reference model. They'd also have to consider how the Arrows and Quiver would need to be done as well. Arrows may have to be a certain length to fit within animations and Quivers would need to have their placements restricted and sizes moderated in order to fit a specific area DE places them. I don't think it would be much of a problem considering how TennoGen artists are currently able to work with the restriction of not being able to change the body in a Warframe skin, but if it's going to require a completely new mesh (which allows for more flexibility) by the creator, I'd imagine restrictions could dissuade some artists.

Not up to date but heres DE's stats from 2018 : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kjME1XFrC0JDqT4XE1kn5uiYENtCFDmy4w6X5AUhnLE/edit#gid=666982722 Link to post Share on other sites

I'm just saying his usage is not the only factor to why he has a lot of skins. Link to post Share on other sites

(NSW)ACE6368 3 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 (edited) Dumb idea for the lenz but what if it looked like a regular bow that's red and has gold designs on it and on the arrow there is a firework so the explosion from the lenz looks like a firework having like a Chinese styled bow look Edited March 5, 2020 by (NSW)ACE6368 Link to post Share on other sites
