Awazx Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 hace 1 minuto, Voltage dijo: You could restrict it to MR 29 Founders exclusively and it would still be an unhealthy weapon. I do not agree with this statement. I think it is healthy for the player to receive rewards for time spent, even if that makes him a little OP. After all, this is PvE, not PvP.

Would you argue Nuke Trinity was healthy for Warframe or 200% range Scoliac Riven Mods as long as it was gated appropriately? If you want to strive for game balance, you need to address these issues. If you left Bramma in the state it was in, 100% of Primaries in the future would be either complete fodder or insane power creep. Time spent is rewarded with an easier experience for people behind you. That is how DE operates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hypernaut1 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Sometimes they try to release a fun weapon. Sometimes it's just too OP. Adjustments were made. It will happen again. Temper your expectations and enjoy it while it last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 The only bad decision was DE introducing the Kuva Bramma to begin with. It deserves to be nerfed and even more than their proposed changes they showed us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DE, Bramma didn't need a nerf. What was necessary from the beginning are two things: 1. Test weapons (actually test anything) before launch so you don't have to make "tough decisions" in the future. 2. It was enough to raise Bramma's MR requirement, and turn it into a "reward" weapon for high level players. Your DE mistake was allowing everyone to access a powerful weapon from the start. The problem is not in Bramma, the problem is your poor planning and poor design of game dynamics that currently affects all areas. What you have achieved with this unnecessary nerf is to generate even more mistrust in many of your players, who will no longer be sure to invest 6 ways and tens of hours to upload their favorite weapon at the risk of another imminent nerf. You are doing things wrong. Technically the Bramma was a none issue until they removed the self damage which was the control to the Bramma's power. This is just DE catching up with themselves as I doubt they foresaw this happening when they pulled self damage. The weapon was literally designed and created when the rules were different. To expect things to not change to meet the new laws is paradoxical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Within the current framework of the game, you were op before the Bramma even existed. The weapon is unique, yes, but if you still love the weapon you'll use it regardless, unless you were just looking for an gimmick to hop on.....

BethTheBean Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Seriously? We get a grineer bow (which everyone wanted in FOREVER), then DE goes and nerfs it since "everyone is using it"? ... WE WANTED A DAMN GRINEER BOW! THAT'S WHY EVERYONE IS USING IT! Either DE forgets all of the feedback, doesn't think of the "big picture", or both.

I don't even use it, but now you've made sure that I won't. And I rarely saw that weapon in game. And you know what? If I entered a PUBLIC match, and someone was using something I don't like, I have the ability to back out of the match. I don't go and complain about it online, to take someone's fun away. So, if we want to talk about overpowered, when are we gonna get the hate train going on the Sheev? Since the melee changes, LITERALLY EVERY MELEE WEAPON is more than viable. The Machete? Come on everyone, there are people having fun out there in game, and you know we can't have that! The weapon is still fun, but more balanced opposed to being over tuned. And during my 4h + playtime per day I always had a team member who had bramma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppleJosey Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Stop playing the videogame in a lazy, boring way.

Zeus0 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 3 hours ago, crashapple12 said: i don't really agree with the method of nerfing changing the max ammo from 15 to 5 is easily offset by ammo mutation, it more makes the weapon annoying to use than actually nerfing the problem (just imagine if DE actually made a slot specifically designed for said mod type sure would be a shame if they were to have done that) the change to the cluster bombs is... a change, albeit a nice change due to excessive particles blinding people the major issue i have with bramma, is it has both higher base damage than kuva ogris (without even considering the cluster bombs or the fact that ogris is not intended to be a crit weapon),better critical stats than kuva tonkor (expecially when you consider that tonkor has low base damage to account for its high critical stats and bramma does not), faster fire rate than lenz and larger radius than all of them it being so much stronger than lenz makes a degree of sense due to MR tier gap, but the gap between bramma, tonkor and ogris is kinda nuts given their MR tier is so close, let alone comparing it to any single target focused weapon like kuva chakkurr, snipers, shotguns or the plethora of other weapon types *but that is a whole other issue not exclusive to bramma* from a purely statistical standpoint its better in every regard to other explosive weapons EVEN with these nerfs, hell its quite likely going to retain the spot of the strongest weapon in the game for the reasons mentioned above, while also completely outclassing every other explosive weapon by miles outside of the one flaw of it now being slightly more annoying to maintain the ammunition basically halving its base damage, increasing its accuracy, alongside the cluster bomb change, would be a far more adequate nerf+QoL change rather than simply making it more annoying to use to the people complaining that bramma is being nerfed, we all saw it coming, we knew this was going to happen nerfing the bramma is practically the same as buffing up every single other weapon simply on the basis that now bramma is no longer dwarfing them in power buffing up every other weapon in the game is a huge waste of time when its just a few weapons dwarfing other types in power balance is always important, be it PVP or PVE, the point is to increase variance and viability of as many options as possible which is a large selling point to why warframe remains fun for so many one cannot create challenge if said challenge can be instant killed from half a mile away, through walls, while also killing everything nearby instantly people may say melee is overpowered, but at least with melee it generally has to be more powerful due to potentially putting you in more danger *exceptions do apply* I couldn't agree more !

StarGeezerTim Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 On 2020-06-08 at 5:01 PM, [DE]Rebecca said: - It has a smaller reserve ammo (15 to 5), and gains fewer arrows from ammo pickups - This is to encourage players to aim the bow deliberately at crowds of enemies and not fire it wildly everywhere - Fewer cluster bombs are produced on impact (from 7 to 3) - Reduces the overwhelming AOE potential somewhat but also makes the Bramma less visually busy. Players have said that the many many explosions produced by Bramma are hard to see through. - Increased cluster projectile radial attack size from 2.7m to 3.5m - Reduced cluster projectile fall off from 100% to 50% - Fewer explosive fragments, but they cover more area and generally do more damage We will be monitoring feedback after these changes go live to ensure we’ve struck a better balance of having a powerful weapon - but not one that overshadows everything else in the game to the detriment of your squadmates. I don't think anyone can fairly say the Bramma wasn't a skosh OP. But this appears rather sweeping, doesn't it? How about an ammo reserve of 8/9 and 4 cluster bombs? And as far as the not being able to see...why can't you just turn down the particle effects per cluster? My fear is this is going to be the next Penta. That was my go-to weapon for a long time (in fact, I think it's still my all-time most-used weapon in my stats, and I haven't used it in years.) That thing was nerfed so hard, it's never bounced back. Is this going to be how "feedback" is going to be "monitored?" Nerf it to hell and then forget about it? Many of us specifically spent time hunting down a larvaling for the Bramma and then maxxing out the level once we got it. How about at least refunding a few forma for current Bramma owners to pump into their next nerf-fuel weapon? Not surprised it's getting a nerf, but disappointed how deep the cut is. Yet another fun weapon relegated to the scrap heap. Thanks bunches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeralKuja Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Cool. As someone who loves the Bramma, I acknowledge that it needed some adjustments. The Lenz is now competitive against it again with these changes. Now there's the problem of making anything other than Bramma and Lenz viable primaries. Stuff that eats too much ammo/gets too little back like Kohm come to mind as decidedly non-viable compared to bigger and better things even with ammo mutation. Maybe make adjustments to how much ammo Kohm and other high ammo capacity weapons get back per pickup? Even with ammo mutation, Twin Grakatas, Kohm/Kuva Kohm, etc. seem to run dry and stay dry in anything longer than a Capture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Ares_Arizen Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Kuva Bramma's damage output is on par with other top tier weapons. Its popularity is not due to it being overpowered, its popular for the fact that it is fun to use and labeled as 'meta' by the community. Anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about/lacks math skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
