hippokrene Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 I was doing Fissure Survival earlier and found myself wondering why this is. I'm at the point where I'll only do Survival if it's a fissure because... why not? Not only do I crack open relics, but I get extra stuff. Has [DE] ever talked about why they keep it in that mode exclusively? It almost seems like a way to make regular content less appealing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkRuler2500 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 One of the reasons why I dont do normal endless 😄 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(NSW)MasterJ93 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 The closest thing I can think of is that, because Fissure missions are higher levelled, they want to give you some bonus rewards as a consequence to dealing with the higher-levelled enemies. Maybe I’m not explaining it correctly, but that’s what might be the reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrivaMain Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Likely as an incentive for players to touch Void Relic content after they got all prime stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea except really pushing endurance so that your boosters are maximized and difficulty actually ramps up will risk a Trade Ban for 2 weeks because the anti-cheat in Warframe is worse than bad.

Do we know what the general cut off is on that? I've only heard of it being once you pass the 6 hour marks and nothing in the two to three areas.

I've heard of more than one instance of people being banned for just 2 or 3 hours of an Arbitration or Fissure due to Smeeta buffs and other things. I don't know how true this is either, but I've heard of some users triggering it from the Profit-Taker with many multipliers coming into play.

Mmm aye, and I doubt they will tell us exactly given that the entire lock out stems from hackers originally manipulating reward data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)lumen2ne1 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 I would say it's an incentive to run endless fissures instead of just running the fastest missions like capture and exterminate, because they pop randomly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relics and Fissure system was created to replace the old Void key system, and in the old void key system there was an advantage for endurance mission in the form of being able to get the more reward the longer you stay, without spending another void key. (and this make a lot of people burned out with void tile set fatigue) The relic system removed that advantage completely for endurance mission, so DE feel the need to add a different advantage for endurance fissure so that spamming capture fissure isn't the best method of opening relic for everybody (at least in the form of you can farm more void trace the longer you stay in endurance runs due to the resource boost) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nslay Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Because you spend relics in Endless Fissures and don't spend anything on Normal fissures. If you don't spend relics, you don't get passive boosters in Endless Fissures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's porting over a legacy system to maintain a perceived reward from the void-key era. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
