Railjack Proximas and their corresponding Relics:

Earth Proxima: Lith Relics: Play here to open Lith Relics and earn their Rewards!
Earth Proxima Void Storm Rewards: Notable rewards in addition to your Relic items include pieces of Sevagoth’s Signature Sidearm ‘Epitaph’!

Venus Proxima: Lith Relics: Play here to open Lith Relics and earn their Rewards!
Venus Proxima Void Storm Rewards: Notable rewards in addition to your Relic items include pieces of Sevagoth’s Signature Sidearm ‘Epitaph’!


Saturn Proxima: Meso Relics: Play here to open Meso Relics and earn their rewards! 
Saturn Proxima Void Storm Rewards: Notable rewards in addition to your Relic items include pieces of Sevagoth’s Signature Sidearm ‘Epitaph’. 


Neptune Proxima: Neo Relics: Play here to open Neo Relics and earn their rewards! 
Neptune Proxima Void Storm Rewards: Notable rewards in addition to your Relic items include pieces of Sevagoth the Warframe!


Pluto Proxima: Axi Relics: Play here to open Axi Relics and earn their rewards! 
Pluto Proxima Void Storm Rewards: Notable rewards in addition to your Relic items include pieces of Sevagoth the Warframe!

Veil Proxima: Axi Relics: Play here to open Axi Relics and earn their rewards!
Veil Proxima Void Storm Rewards: Notable rewards in addition to your Relic items include pieces of Sevagoth the Warframe!

The question is how many Relics can we open in non-endless modes (Defense and Orphix)? It will feel disproportional to open just one Relic after a single mission, which roughly takes up to 10-20 minutes.

Khora's Whipclaw line of sight checks are now a little more generous.

  • To quote [DE]Ruu’s post: No longer will small rocks or detailed floor geometry block Whipclaw’s explosion! Enemies that hide behind cover will not be hit by Whipclaw if you hit the front of the object that enemies are hunkering down behind. However, if you strategically hit beside them, you will vanquish your foes.

Not particularly excited that you're doubling down on keeping the LoS, but we'll see if this change does anything to alleviate the multitude of issues the LoS presents. I'll do some testing tonight.

Great to see a mainline update but what ever happened to the small frame QOL updates that were supposed to be rolling out regularly? We saw a major update to Zephyr but it has been awhile since we got the first batch of micro optimizations and there are plenty of frames who could use them.

when New War?;
when Duviri Paradox?;
When Baro?

Oh you sweet summer child;)  Enjoy the little nibbles they give us and wait patiently for the meal.  Maybe we'll get lucky and one of those 3 comes out this year.

Fixed Eximus enemies no longer having drops due to the recent move of Oberon & Ash Blueprints to Railjack

Oberon and Ash do not belong in high level Railjack reward tables.

 

If Railjack really needs these Warframes in its reward tables, then they should be in the Earth and Venus Proxima regions.

Players who are in a position to comfortably farm the higher level Railjack missions (e.g. Veil Proxima, Pluto Proxima) don't need Ash or Oberon. They most likely already have these Warframes or have better alternatives. Players who WOULD benefit from having Oberon or Ash aren't in a position to farm high level Railjack. It's just frustrating to everyone as they're getting non-evergreen rewards that aren't really useful for them. A new player doesn't need parts for an MR 10 pistol. An experienced player doesn't need these beginner Warframes.

Having Oberon and Ash as low level Railjack rewards would give new players a more meaningful tangible reward early on. It would also give them a reason to engage with Railjack earlier, and let them farm content that they can comfortably and viably complete with their starting Railjack and low MR gear.

Oberon used to be the most accessible healing/support Warframe. Easy to get, easy to mod, easy to play. By the time a player has finished with their basic star chart, they would have gone on enough 20+ minute farming runs for various resources that they would likely have all the Oberon parts they need. Oberon is an important part of any new player's arsenal, along with Rhino. With him being locked behind the Veil Proxima and other high level Railjack missions, a new player won't be getting Oberon from progressing through the game when they would benefit from him.

By the time a new player will be in a position to farm the Veil Proxima, they will already have needed to complete so much other content to get the gear needed for the enemies there, that they would be better off farming the Ambulas boss on Pluto for Trinity or the Granum Void fissures for Protea.

And it's a similar story with Ash, a.k.a. "bulkier stabby Loki". Invisibility is a really powerful tool for a new player to have early on. Ash's invisibility is among the weaker versions out there, but it's still entirely serviceable. His kit is also relatively straightforward to use and duration-mods aside, he doesn't want or need any fancy gear to do his thing. From a modding and gameplay point of view, he's a good frame for a player who is starting to dip their toe into post-Star Chart content.

Having these Warframes early on (especially with how diluted the drop tables for bonus objectives are) would mean that new players engage with the low level Railjack planets for long enough that they will actually have some basic gear and intrinsics farmed up to move on to mid- and high-level Railljack missions.

Those drop tables should be unified as well to not have 4 different amounts of Endo or a single relic or two for a 5-10 minute long mission, but that's a whole different issue.

OMG thanks DE! Cant wait to test the new mode "void storm".

Upon login, players who sold the Glazio, Laith, Talyn, or Vort Armaments will receive the respective Endo difference per Tier up to a maximum of 40,000 Endo returned (roughly equal to 200 Armaments Scrapped). Our reasoning for the cap correlates to the Corpus Fighter spawn exploit that was used to endlessly acquire items, including Armaments.

 Will this roll out later? I haven't receive any message for the few armaments I was able to farm and sell.
