Helminth: Merge


AreeSoothsayer

Recommended Posts

Wouldn't it be cool if some of the abilities that Helminth can share from warframes can merge with abilities of certain other warframes to make a new, unique, ability?

Like Frost and Ember abilities could be combined into a PBAoE steam blast that hits all enemies in a certain radius.

I feel like the best way to handle this would be to add a "Hybridize Strains" option to the Helminth interface menu that lets you attempt to combine unlocked or Subsumed abilities at a minor cost of Secretions, some combinations will unlock new abilities based on the combination you chose (e.g. Frost's Ice Wave and Ember's Fireball creates "Thermoshock", a Blast-damage cone). Only some combinations will produce new abilities, the rest will just waste the resources and/or produce some kind of default "failure" output.

new segment that requires mr 30 to build for helminth, that allows you to swap 4 powers per config. not just 1

You mean full modular frame. Im sure its the next thing. We have, Melee, Secondary, Primary, Pets, 1 frame ability, Archwing is coming, and last will be Full frame. Probably next open world will the this release if they keep following their progression. Quite predictable.

locking a massive mechanic like this would be a horrible idea. if this idea is realised it should either be: A modular warframe when Duviri Paradox comes out,  ranking up with Helminth slowly unlocks the ability to replace more abilities with subsumed/helminth ones.

In general, locking new things behind MR is an awful idea, the only ones I can understand are the Helminth System (because its pretty complex) certain weaponry and mechanics and systems like Kuva Lich's.
After roughly MR10-12, it just becomes a number to show how much useless junk you've used and will never touch again really. MR should just grant loadout slots and daily standing, nothing else
