Sweagen 8 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 2 minutes ago, VeraElena said: Gram Prime used to be like 1.45 or something. It is steadily on its way to one of the lowest 2h-Sword dispositions, as it is one of the strongest ones. Now imagine if you were a new player joining when it is at like 0.6, while some veterans run around with incredibly expensive overpowered rivens. Would that be fair? Well, the way I see it, there's always something new and overpowered just around the corner, that's Warframe. The OP Rivens Did cost thousands of Plat, and they will continue to do so regardless of nerfs or what have you, maybe they would just cost a few thousand more, and newbs currently walk into Warframe and Already see those thousand of plat rivens, which already Are incredibly expensive. There will always be affordable things though I feel like, whether it's the Xoris (which did just get nerfed) or just finding a solid underrepresented weapon with a high disposition...

Gilley 29 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 (edited) Please revert the change that variants of a weapon have lower dispositions then the base version... It only ends up making those new variants useless to anyone into Rivens and makes me not care at all about any new weapons that come out when otherwise I'd be pumped. Take Panthera Prime for example, I love that weapon and I also have an amazing Riven for it, but now with the change that variants have a worse disposition I don't care at all that one of my favorite weapons got a prime because my Riven makes the base version just out right better. It's such a boring change that I hope you rethink because instead of getting excited for new weapon variants that gets released like I used to, I instead need to bust out my calculator to find out if it's actually better then the previous or if it's a waste of my time.

I would have thought it was like getting on a train before it took off, and grandfathered things that were made before they get changed would deserve to have higher value to honour the investment people put into their weapons. Nonetheless, thanks and it also makes sense for things to be nerfed. As long as rivens can be traded yes. Wouldn't matter nearly as much if they weren't. Link to post Share on other sites

If kitgun can get separate disposition as primary/secondary, zaw should get one too, some weapon types are heavily underused but suffer because the other grip is way more popular.

TyrannisPax 123 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Right so, in light of all the feedback you got for the Xoris, your response is not only to ignore it and nerf it regardless but also to nerf the already barely plausible Plague Zaws and buff one of the most popular stat-stick rivens (the Venka). And that's not even getting started on the Kuva weapons. Seriously DE, you're really not making a case for yourself in regards to the "DE is keeping the Riven market afloat for money" accusations. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Oh sure there are oddities to discuss. But for every comment about them theres one each of : claims that the best weapons in the game are now dead, assertions that any disposition below 1.0 is worthless, complaints on how the system works (out of date by more than a year), and of course "sure I sank time and money into something designed to change, but that doesn't mean I expected it to." 4 Link to post Share on other sites

As a matter of fact I was talking about how the popular stat stick got buffed. Right off the back of them nerfing a worse weapon because it made the "damage output greater than intended."

(PSN)Yaleling 21 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 I'll be honest. I like the newest approach to rivens. The most powerful/popular weapons don't need help from rivens to do their thing. Starting newly released weapons at minimum disposition makes all kinds of sense. Being new, they are going to be popular as a novelty. Time will tell how popular they remain. And it reduces wild fluctuation in value of their rivens. And regular updates to disposition can only be a good thing for all weapons, but the new ones in particular as they find their 'level'. 6 Link to post Share on other sites

RottedApples 170 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 seeing stuff like the lecta and orthos get buffs is like, this is a long time coming thanks. i to an extent agree with the sentiment about raising the low end of rivens some, I don't know about buffing everything to 1.0 minimum but i think 0.5 it's just better to not use a riven at all. I'm curious about the usage stats actually. When you guys say you adjust riven dispo on weapon usage stats is that all you are looking at? Do you look at these popular weapons then figure out how many of these people use rivens on them? Do you then say cross check this with the amount of rivens they have on their account? the history of them using rivens? It's one thing for a new player to farm a popular prime early on and they just use it a lot right, they might not even have rivens yet, let alone something for that weapon. But if you have a large amount of veteran players who own a lot of rivens just not using rivens on say, the rubico prime, or the catchmoon pistol, or something like that even though they might have in the past or might have unveiled them only to get rid of them then I would see that as a problem with the rivens and perhaps those weapons would actually need a riven buff even though they might already be popular.

All three of those are the most popular stat-sticks due to riven dispo and various mechanics. If you were to ask about what to use to boost Exalted weapons, those are the ones you'd be told about. So yes, they are quite popular. Link to post Share on other sites

(PSN)Melechesh 12 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 The problem of this increase/decrease bs is not that DE wants better balancing. They want to lower riven prices. Another point is, that DE was never able to find a balance between their weapons, because development is lazy af and nothing is tested well. So please, stop this hilarious Dispo changes and test new weapons properly. 5 Link to post Share on other sites

i_M_M 4 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Lol here we go some salty comments again xD, DE already explained so many times abt how they adjust rivens disposition, and people who buy popular weapons riven at a high price still complain about it, (not mentioning that most of those popular weapons dont rly need a riven honestly bcs its already powerful, or maybe except for eidolon purposes).
