(NSW)TimberTam Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 (edited) Can we all just sympathize with each other and say that Ratels ( the units Sniper Crewmen deploy by throwing a spawn point on the ground) are the literal most annoying thing in Warframe? Cause' legit, they are hard to hit, they gang up on you with electrical laser beams, they'll chase you if you run, and worst of all they spawn infinitely until you destroy the spawn point.

KnossosTNC Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Depends. For my Saryn and Mesa, for examples, they can be a bit of a speed bump. My Mirage and her Acceltra, however, hardly notice them in the hail of explosions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taiiat Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 unless they're like Lv100+ or something they don't deal much for relevant Damage so i generally can't agree. because generally you can completely ignore them. and if i do have to actually care about them as an Enemy, Ground Smashes will definitely hit them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do not spawn infinitely, actually check before claiming they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterfly85 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 The hell do they even do? My only issue with them is you're trying to go through a map and making progress only for them to keep dragging you back because they've spawned and the map marker keeps sending you back. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)robotwars7 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 they can be annoying. they aren't difficult to kill, but having my butthole zapped constantly does get irksome during longer missions. they really make a difference in Invasions though: Grineer used to nearly always win against Crewmen due to their armor, but since Ratels were introduced, a Ratel-backed Corpus squad nearly always beats the Grineer, unless they have a Heavy Gunner or something with them. on the plus side though, at least there are no Ratel Eximus... imagine a pad that spawns constant energy draining Ratels... *shudders* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunai_Moonswing Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 They've only been annoying to me. It's like a corpus Tribble. It's adorable to look at, but super annoying to exterminate an infestation of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(NSW)Greybones Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 I feel your pain 👍 Rolly polly little static shocking shockers that none-the-less keep my shields from recharging and leave me vulnerable.

JackHargreav Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 They are just useless, weak, annoying little S#&$heads. I would like them to be deleted them from the game. Sadly that will never happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canach Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 As aforementioned, they don't spawn endlessly, but yeah, rats are one of the most annoying enemies in the game, along with the freaking grin-ear version ground traps that zap you even when you blow them up. Rats. grrr. But not complaining, I also hate lots of the enemies, we're supposed to. How 'bout those stupid Scorpions "don't run past me - come back and kill me!" Yes, we hate Rats!

(PSN)FriendSharkey Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 (edited) I really want a type of Grineer Rollers and a Ratels that are the size of the Indiana Jones Boulder and have them chase us...I guess its just me missing the feeling of the OH SH*T RUN!!! moment when the music for the Tank would start up from Left4Dead of late...

OvisCaedo Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 (edited) They're... pretty annoying. They don't do enough to be anything more than an annoyance, but they're still an annoyance. The spawn pad REALLY need better visibility and/or to get picked up by enemy radar. A red dot like landmines have would make sense.
