Wukong Prime, Zhuge Prime, and Ninkondi Prime have entered the Vault!

With this Vaulting comes the shift of the following Syndicate Sacrifices:

 

• Replaced Perrin Sequence Sacrifice of Wukong Prime Chassis with Atlas Prime Chassis.

• Replaced Perrin Sequence Sacrifice of Ninkondi Prime Handle with Baza Prime Stock.

• Replaced Steel Meridian Sacrifice of Zhuge Prime String with Pangolin Prime Handle.

 

If you already wield the power of these Primes or have their Relics in your Inventory, they will remain after the Vaulting.

 

Riven Disposition Changes:

As with each round of Prime Access come updated Riven Disposition numbers. See the full Disposition changes here:

https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1265139-may-2021-riven-disposition-updates/ 

 

PLUS! As an added Gara QoL change, her glass armor no longer disappears during Splinter Storm!

You have requested many times (many, many, times) to have a UI toggle that will give you control over whether Gara's glass armor parts will "shatter" while using Splinter Storm. You want to use this power all the time, but it makes your warframe look so much less... shiny when you do.

 

Given how persistent and unified this feedback is, we've decided to simply make this power not remove her armor plates while it is active. Adding a toggle adds significantly more complexity to the code and significantly more chances for things to break than just not having the effect at all.

 

We hope this change will be appealing to everybody living on the cutting edge of Gara fashion.

 

Railjack Changes & Fixes: 

 

• Command Intrinsic Crew Changes & Fixes:
  The following changes are a prelude to the release of the Rank 10 Command Intrinsic coming in the Sisters of Parvos Update! 

  • Added a ‘Contracts’ tab to Ticker's ‘Hire Railjack Crew Members’ in Fortuna.

    • You can also end Contracts with the Crew Members that are not equipped from here. 

    • This has been highly requested! You can now review your current Crew Contracts while perusing potential Hires to see what positions you have to fill or who might have to be replaced (get the boot!). 

  • Converted Kuva Liches can now be used as ‘On Call’ Crewmates.

  • Crew Members now have more relaxed behaviour when not on a mission.

  • Crew Members will now play transmission voice lines whenever they are being customized in the Dry Dock. More personality for your team!

  • Crew Competencies are now visible in the Tactical Map when hovering over Crew Members. 

    • This was highly requested to help make an informed decision when swapping Crew roles in the heat of battle.
      

  • Crew Piloting the Railjack will now hold position when you are either in the Archwing Slingshot or using the Forward Artillery. 

    • To help players engage their targets, the Pilot will prefer to point the ship at targets that you are aiming at.

    • This is also our first attempt at this function, so some future tweaking is to be expected!

  • Crew piloting Railjack will now fly to attack the weak-point marker at the end of Railjack Volatile missions. 

  • Updated all of New Loka Crew's mouth shapes for the visemes to improve the overall quality.

  • Fixed Crew attempting to get into the Forward Artillery and/or Pilot harness after giving all three Crew the ‘Gunner’ role.

  • Fixed Crew assigned to Gunner after assigning another Crew member to the same position being unable to go into or stay in any of the Railjack turrets.

• Improved the ‘Abort’ Railjack mission flow by changing and fixing the following:
  These changes come after reviewing why Clients in Railjack missions would often find themselves feeling unable to leave after mission completion in public squads. We determined that the language used in these scenarios was unclear/confusing and that there were several other issues related to how rewards were shown in the UI and saved to inventory that we have resolved below!

  • ‘Abort Mission’ will now update to ‘Leave Mission’ in the pause menu after successfully completing a Railjack mission. 

    • It will also prompt a new message that better describes what will occur: “Leave Mission: You will keep mission rewards and XP earned to this point, but will disconnect from your squad. Are you sure you want to leave this mission?” vs. the previous “Abort Mission: You will keep progress but forfeit the completion rewards and bonuses. Are you sure you want to abort this mission?”

  • Fixed Clients not being able to ‘Abort’ Mission and retain their rewards once the mission objective has been completed. 

  • Fixed the End of Mission screen not showing the full collection of rewards earned in the mission when returning to the Orbiter. 

  • Fixed ‘Aborting’ Railjack Mission not awarding items earned from POIs.

• Fixed crash related to waypoint position in Pluto Proxima. 

• Fixed the Corpus Troop Spawn Racks in the POIs malfunctioning & ejecting you into space if you get caught underneath it as it's coming down. 

• Fixed being unable to leave the Railjack or fast travel when returning from a Railjack mission to a Relay. This also fixes the pause menu showing Dojo options instead of Relay. 

• Fixed using the Dojo Arsenal during Railjack mission countdown creating duplicate companions. 

• Fixed enemies not spawning in Volatile missions (after mission complete) when you had previously run an Exterminate or Sentient Anomaly mission and travelled directly to the next Volatile mission. 

• Fixed being unable to exit the Railjack Pilot and Turret seats after returning to the Dry Dock via pause menu.

• Fixed Railjack Mods popup on pickup in mission using the old UI when they were still Avionics. They will now popup on the left side as Mods like other Mod pickups!

• Fixed Electricity Hazards on the Railjack also affecting players’ HUD that are on Crewships. 

• Fixed being unable to use the Tactical Map while piloting stolen Crewships.

• Fixed Railjack Shield gauge turning black instead of purple when the Railjack has Overshields. 

• Fixed another case of infinite loading from Dry Dock on the second mission if Host migration occurred after successful first mission. 

• Fixed Host and Client getting trapped in an infinite loading tunnel after aborting to Dry Dock from Void Storm mission.

• Fixed loss of functionality with the Pause Menu in Railjack missions if the player opens the Quick Progress View “P” as the “Mission Complete” pop-up appears.

• Fixed being able to set up a Trade Shop in a docked Railjack. 

  • This also fixes your Warframe getting stuck with their arm up in the trade position during the entirety of the mission.

• Fixed Contributing and Rushing Wreckage causing the scroll position to reset to the top of the list. 

• Fixed ‘Wear and Tear’ slider not resetting when using the ‘Reset Default’ option in the ‘Customize Railjack.

• Fixes towards transparency issues with a sign in the Corpus Railjack ship.

• Fixed some Corpus Railjack Codex dioramas having flashing lights.

 

New Player Experience Changes: 

• Increased the Daily Standing cap you get before including Mastery, slightly reduced the amount you get from Mastery. All players before MR 30 will have a higher Daily Standing cap than they used to, while players at MR 30 will have the same cap as before.

  • In addition to giving more room for Tenno to get to that final rank with their Syndicates, this will ultimately help reduce the time new players spend ranking up with their chosen Syndicates. Previously, if you were Mastery Rank 10, you would have a daily Standing cap of 16,000. Now, with the changes we’ve made, your daily Standing cap for MR 10 is 21,000.

• The Limbo Theorem and Hidden Messages Quests no longer requires you to finish crafting the Warframe components to move onto the next stage of the Quest.  Simply earning the Blueprint is now enough to progress.

• Junctions now award Credits upon completion! 

  • A script will be run to give Upon login Credits will be given to players who have already completed the following Junctions:

    • Earth to Mars: 15,000

    • Mars to Ceres: 20,000

    • Mars to Phobos: 20,000

    • Ceres to Jupiter: 30,000

UI Changes: 

 

We have done update passes on some of the social aspects of Warframe, with particular attention paid to screen reworks for Friends and Clans this time around!

 

Multiple screens have been refreshed with a new look and certain new functionalities! All of the screens listed below also now all take on your chosen UI theme. 

 

• ‘Junction Tasks’ Screen Changes: 

  • Rewards will now automatically scroll across the screen to give you a full preview of what will be earned on successful Junction completion.

  • Each task now has a descriptive blurb to help direct you on how to get started on the task.
     

• ‘Clan’ Screen Changes:

  • Everything is now more neatly displayed on a single screen. Previously tucked away features such as ‘Edit Hierarchies’, ‘View Alliance’, ‘Invite Member’, and ‘Message of the Day’ are now immediately visible and accessible. 

  • In addition to your MOTD, you can now also have a much longer Clan and Alliance message displayed below! All display on the right hand side of the Clan screen in the ‘News’ Tab. The option to edit the MOTD and message below is available in this window for those with permissions to do so.

  • Added more Clan information to the screen:

    • Added the total number of Clan members to the screen. 

    • Added the ‘Founding Warlord’ to the screen. 

  • The Alliance Screen has also been reskinned: 

    • Added the total number of members to the screen (in addition to the previously live ‘Allies’ count).

  • Everything is now more neatly displayed on a single screen. Previously tucked away features such as ‘Recent Players’, ‘Available Sessions’, and ‘Batch Remove’ are now immediately visible and accessible. 

  • Added ‘Recruit Tenno’ option - This will take you directly to the ‘Refer a Friend’ page on the Warframe website to recruit your pals and earn rewards for doing so.

  • You can now “Favorite” Friends in your Friends list by right clicking on their name. Favoriting Friends will add a star next to their name and will bump them to the top of your lists, both when they are on and offline. If you wish to “Unfavorite” simply right click on their name again and select that option. 

CHANGES:

• Added a "To be continued..." label to The New War in Codex if the third entry cinematic has been viewed. The third cinematic entry has also officially been titled “The Maker”.

  • This section now also displays completion state for cinematic entries.

• Added a new dropdown to Quest Codex screen so players can now filter which Quests are displayed (ALL / STORY / SIDE / WARFRAME), ALL is the default option so that players aren't confused as to where all of their Quests went.

• Removed the ‘BETA’ tag on the ‘Enhanced’ option under ‘Graphics Engine’ Display settings. 

  • We’ve been working on this improved graphical mode for quite a while! It’s been available  to PC players since last year, and deferred rendering is now the standard for our current-gen console players. At this point we don’t have any reservations in encouraging everybody to try this mode.

• The Verglas now has custom sounds for weapon fire!

• The pickup animation now turns your Warframe to face the item being picked up. 

• Moved camera on Baro Ki’Teer in his Offerings screen to be far more flattering during his Relay Visits. 

• Added FX when setting a Research Target or accepting a Daily Synthesis task from Simaris.

• Added Minimap colors options to the HUD color customization options (does not apply to Tactical Map):

  • Ground

  • Outline

  • High Elevation Outline

  • Low Elevation Outline

• Updated Incubator Power Core description at the Incubator to include how to find them when you do not currently own one: “The first Power Core can be acquired by completing the Mars Junction. Additional recipes can be bought in the Market and built in the Foundry.”

• Updated the daily Standing reached pop-up to "You have reached your Daily Standing Limit with [Insert Syndicate]. Come visit again tomorrow.".

  • The previous “Standing is at maximum for this syndicate” was misleading!

• Changed the Eris and Pluto Relays in the list of marked Relays in the Rising Tide Quest to the Saturn Relay if you aren’t in a Clan. 

• Redeeming a Promo Code in the ingame Market will now show the claimed items in the success message.

• Changed the “None” Dojo Backdrop to a default option instead of a Recipe that must be researched.

  • We made this change because “None” is every room’s default when first constructed. We want this option always available instead of requiring more research on the part of Clans who wish to return a room to how it first appeared.

  • This change will deduct 1K Affinity from Clans that completed the research, but it will not affect the tiers of Clans who upgraded to a higher tier using this 1K Affinity. We will be running a script to refund Clans who spent Credits on “None” Backdrop research. Script run and done!

• *Missed Note: We now inject commas in Damage numbers for easier readability!

Thank you for Gara Prime Access. 

The UI changes for the clan page make excellent use of screen real estate. It would be awesome to this way of thinking applied to future UI updates as well as reviewing past ones. Equipment chat links in particular have a large portion of the screen wasted to a diorama instead of having more useful information presented without hovers or scrolling. The clan changes showcase the right blend of function and fashion, and many previous UI overhauls could be reviewed with this in mind to be better balanced.

This is pretty nice:

Can we apply this logic to Dark Sector Solar Rail research for a level playing field for all clans outside of Ignis Wraith? Remove all XP and research for these retired research items and run a script to remove XP from older clans for a consistent clan research experience? The game is healthier when these issues are approached the way you have here instead of hiding them from new players and creating permanently retired completion items. This also allows you guys to give all clans the same access to clan Affinity outside of Ignis Wraith from Pacifism Defect. It's a better foundation for future clan updates.

Can you guys make a survey on the community opinion to see if people like Xaku's attachment dissapearing while using The Vast Untime?

I haven't met anyone who likes their fashion frame dissapearing when using that skill of theirs.

PS: Although I'm glad Gara's armor is no longer being jettisoned out of her body when using Splinter Storm, you really should've made it a toggle for those who didn't want the change.

.

With the recent two Credit Weekends players have seen a trend, namely the Profit Taker meta. I already gave detailed feedback on that one ( https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1257386-index-credit-farming/?tab=comments#comment-12104972 ) The problem here is that old but definitely fun and engaging content is lost simply because it cannot compare to newer content ( like it always happens after some time i.e. Mining getting replaced by Thumpers , Arbitation Kuva farming with Steel Path/Essence farming etc. ) This is a sad trend and I think we should give old content a new reason to coexist and compare with new content. I gave options and ideas as to how fix Index in comparison to Profit Taker to make Index a fair second option again. Lets move on to the next sad trend in the recent years, the new prime weapons. Anyone remembers the cherished gimmicks of new primes back in the day´? Pyrana prime with its ,,action'' mode, Ballistica prime creating specters or ? DE stopped making primes special for some tragic reason and nowadays Primes are often simply a reskinned normal version with slightly better stats (that are often not even enough to bring them on par with a Riven modded normal version which leads to the fact that people do not even use the prime version). Where is the love DE used to put into primes ? I can understand that thinking of a gimmick for each prime weapon gets tedious and exhausting but not a single one in ages is quite depressing. (I do not count fire modi as special). It would not even be that hard in some cases, for example pandero prime could have a reload gimmick that allows you to reload 50% faster if you hit all bullets with ur secondary mode effectively rewarding aim with DPS increase. The next point would be the controversely discussed Void Storms, nobody does them after they acquired the new Weapon/Frame....why? Simply because their supposed reward is a Prime Part(Relic) but it takes 5x as long to open one there in comparison to a Capture/Sabotage/Exterminate etc. mission. If you want players to not abandon void storms and thus your new content you must adjust it accordingly, Options would be obvious and simple. Either Remove the objectives and let players rampage in space for their Relic (different missions could still be possible for example having a large pool of enemy fighters lets say 200 that is aquivalent to Ext or a pimped Crewship with shields and vents you need to take down first -> Capture or a 3 asteroids you need to shoot with the artillery -> sabotage etc. ). Or let players open multiple relics for their time investment. Last but not least Steel Essence farming. It went from efficiency based (someone who killed 1000 eximus enemies per hour got more than someone who killed 100) to completely time based. This drastic change still left a bad taste in the mound of many players but it is understandable due to how people ,,abused'' certain things. Changing the new system again is unrealistic but why not tweak it a little bit? Currently players farm only Survival to gain Steel Essence (which is basically the same as the old meta) isnt that sad as a developer? to have so many missions but players only choose that single one? Now how we can fix that without returning to the old problem? Simply change the Acolyte Spawn for NON Endurance missions such as Capture or Exterminate missions. Each time you ,,unlock'' extraction the Acolyte will spawn, so for example in a exterminate after roughly 2 minutes. This is obviously superior to Endurance missions many people will think but it is not,it gives people option to get Acolytes fast but Steel Essence is only ONE drop per mission which means you can no longer stack SE and wait for kavat buffs to pick up multiple drops. This solely gives players with little time a good option to farm SE quicker without having to sit in survival for hours. It also adds variety to the Steel Essence farm,something some players desperately seek.

PLUS! As an added Gara QoL change, her glass armor no longer disappears during Splinter Storm!

You have requested many times (many, many, times) to have a UI toggle that will give you control over whether Gara's glass armor parts will "shatter" while using Splinter Storm. You want to use this power all the time, but it makes your warframe look so much less... shiny when you do.

Our prayers have been answered! \o/

Will we ever get Gara's other signature weapon, Fusilai prime?

[The_F4nAt1c]

Thanks for the amazing Gara Prime

 

[Zahnny]

So, we can use Liches for On-Call but is there a change to have On-Call be seperate from your Railjack crew?

[Fabpsi]

Thank you for the update, looks like a very fancy prime together with a lot of beautiful ui-changes and even more fixes!
Very nice, keep up the good work :)

Thanks!!

Can we get an option to remove converted liches? Only way to get rid of them is to try to sell off to another player.

I see the QoL Changes still haven't been considered and applied to the relics screen. When will the data that's already exposed, be applied as an ICON on vaulted relics on the corresponding screens they're on? Its a very, very simple change and would make one HUGE difference.

Thanks for the update, but when dojo mass contribute, I am about to die from pressing 2 too much.

Thank you for another great update!

Unleash the power of the sand. O wait, different Gara. Nevermind. :D

[BETAOPTICS]

Awesome!

[NightCrawlerK98]

A bunch of updates later and this is STILL broken. Not only that but all you've done is remove the forma choice screen! Why can't I apply my hard earned special forma to this single, specific weapon? 🤔
