Duewarframe Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 (edited) Warframe have been quite good and impressive. Many surprising ideas in the game. However, I encounter a unknown purpose pistol called LEX. LEX, one of the most expensive but somehow useless. It is even weaker than LATO overall. Level 12 LATO (Aim the head but sometime body shot kill) could kill multiple enemy faster than Level 12 LEX (headshots). I think LEX need more damage+accuraccy or firerate+ammo.

Sealgaire Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Dude, your text is tiny and almost the same color as the background. Might want to avoid that. As far as the Lex, seems to be a concensus that it needs a boost. Fire rate would be a good place to start. Even bumping to just 1.2 or so would help alot while still making it feel like a slow firing handcannon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[DE]Steve Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 We will be looking at th Lex, yep! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEsoJD Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I got the lex as well, but it was very dissappointing(I would sell it back if I could). The accuracy and damage is just horrible considering it so damn slow. Had to replace it with the hand shotgun for my Rhino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApokalypsBZH Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Actually you can sell it back by going in arsenal > inventory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sealgaire Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 He probably bought it with platinum. You realize pretty quick this is a silly thing to do when the guns are so cheap and credits so easy to come by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duewarframe Posted January 3, 2013 Author Share Posted January 3, 2013 (edited) Thanks DESteve, I hope there will be changes for LEX soon. Thanks Sealgaire, but I think not 1.6, it should go 3.2 rate of fire first as the price/level is high. Yes it is quite horrible and disappointing, I bought it with the game money instead of platinum. All the time I played for the credit is kinda waste and made me alittle lazy to move on. Selling it is not a good idea since you only restore 5000 credit while it cost 35000. Better wait for the change or improvement on LEX. Thanks for the replies guys, I hope LEX will be useful before duel LEX is release or agreed.

Sealgaire Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Oh so you did pay with credits. Don't worry about it then. When you start selling higher level mods you'll have more than you can spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang_Doll Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 It makes a very loud noise when you fire it and it makes you feel like an awesome manly man of awesomeness. I thought that was the whole point of the weapon; I use the Gorgon for actual damage. >_> <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volume Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Anyone else finding the Lex actually pretty good...? Like top-tier handgun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The-Blacksmith Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Anyone else finding the Lex actually pretty good...? Like top-tier handgun? I've been enjoying the LEX, even though it's currently only rank 9. It's just a case of being a bit more patient to aim for the head and BOOM insta kill. As for those saying that rate of fire needs buffing...wouldn't that give it problems with the recoil? As in, if you tried to "rapid fire" you'd have ridiculous recoil and inaccuracy? Also, someone said it's inaccurate, which is funny, because I find it to be absolutely pinpoint accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonN36 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 The only problem I had with pistols are the accuracy, especially considering that it has a 100 accuracy in the stats department. Other than that, I'm loving the LEX, especially the damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aste Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 dunno about you guys but i am agaisnt dual LEX.. what would be good is to make sound like Leon custom shotgun(upgraded) in RE2 that would be cool just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sealgaire Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Okay, so now that I've given the Lex a fair chance and leveled it to 30, it's grown on me. You need to be able to get consistant headshots with it, but when you do, you can fall into a nice rhythm where you're dropping mobs at a pretty good pace. I think the zoom could be given a slight boost to make it more useful at longer ranges. I pair it with the HEK on my Rhino and it does well covering for the weaknesses of that weapon.

Though I'm using a BOAR atm as I'm farming mats to make my HEK. But yeah, it covers the weaknesses well, and I often find in solo play I'll clear a few out with headshots from my LEX before charging in when its safe to mop up the rest with my BOAR. Imagine it'd be the same with the HEK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sp1nKuro Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Uhhh people are saying it's weaker than LATO? Was it buffed since that? The base damage of LEX is wayyyy higher than LATO. I have AkLato right now but I'm really thinking about trying out LEX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreakD Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 We will be looking at th Lex, yep! good, Lex is terrible atm. Even if you increase his firerate by 2 times it is still not viable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oranjeah Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 I love the LEX and would still apprecaite any buffs to it. I actually like to take my time and go for headshots and kill with a single shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Blacksmith Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 good, Lex is terrible atm. Even if you increase his firerate by 2 times it is still not viable I really don't get how it's not viable. It's not really viable for a run and gun style of play (unless you're Korean), but it's perfectly viable as a long range back up to snipe off heads of annoying/clustered enemies from a safe distance before plowing into the rest with your shotgun.

Arcalane Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Headshot Grineer, Oneshot Ospreys, Bodyshot Corpus, Headshot Infested... there are a few situations/enemies where it's not truly viable (Ancients, Grineer Heavies) but otherwise the Lex is a solid handgun. Mine is level 18ish with as many +damage mods as I can get for it, so it dishes out something like 170~200 damage on headshots. It could do with some minor buffs, yes, but nothing too serious.

Parabellum Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 The Lex mainly suffers from it's fire rate in my opinion. I mean, it even fires slower than a pump action shotgun. (Strun) I believe the huge recoil would be enough to balance out a fire rate buff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eversor Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) LEVEL 30 LEX SUPERCHARGED + FIRE RATE + ARMOR PIERCIENG USER : <<<PURE BEAST PERIOD You have read nothing if you cannot aim and control recoil. ;) Gimme Firerate buff ... and u all will have to call me Yahvéh lol Edited January 13, 2013 by Eversor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
