I'm not complaining btw, i love the zephyr deluxe jacket :P its basically the only operator outfit for me as of now 😄 Sometimes Liger feels like Akira Toriyama, no matter what they design it feels similar in a way.

This skin not only has little to do with the frame or warframe in general, it’s definitely ugly from what I can see. I don’t know what happened here, this looks like one of those oily tanned hypertrophic mass of muscles everyone makes fun of. Reconsider the design please They are not going to reconsider the design lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cirrus was it? The Syandana was ok, but the pistol skin and armor sections…I wonder if it didn’t sell that well within the Warframe Universe Aesthetic which is why they flipped it into a Promo. I’d rather they just go bold for vascular/sinewy muscle rather than a cotton-stuffed winter jacket look. The end result will be telling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cat motif probably wasn't the main focus in terms of overall aesthetic, but arose out of the association of "catlike" reflexes to a lithe woman. As the fanbase doubled-down on that, so too did the devs with the fanservice of the Gersemi skin. Yeah but even if they went for a valkyrie theme they completely missed the mark. They delivered a berserker, and even there the choice of skills and aestethics are questionable. I mean uh, fighting with claws while angry? Ripline, what? I get the feeling that they looked at too many things and mish-mashed it together, ranging from catlike super heroes like Black Cat/Catwoman (ripline, claws and agility) then shoved anger on there and slapped a norse-like name on it. I mean, the only tie in to valkyries would be the name and the "cat" tie in, and I only give them the cat thing as a valkyrie tie in because Freya has 13 cats that pull her wagon. Atleast with Loki we can sense the theme, although more similar to the Marvel take on him than the actual myths. I mean, Valkyr could have been an awesomely cool frame if they actually went with the valkyrie theme. Exalted spear+shield, warcry and maybe some winged leap attack instead of ripline, with some synergy between her paralyze and the exalted shield, like a massive AoE shield bash.

Not every deluxe skin needs to be for everyone. There are plenty of deluxe skins I don't like and that I think look terrible, but you don't see me saying they should be changed.

Tenno made a long tradition in "lore" of fashioning their aesthetics for various reasons... Why would a friggin' jacket be so hard to believe?

Sinekanter Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I absolutely adore the body horror aspect of the design, especially the open back shown in the rougher sketches. I already enjoyed that theme on Harrow, where it was supposed to look like flaggelation wounds and here it looks like she has clawed her own back open. I don't mind the jacket thing, I kinda like how weirdly proportioned she looks. Given how puffy it looks and Valkyr's cat theme, it reminds me somehow of an expensive, longhaired pedigree cat, giving her a weirdly regal look, especially in combination with the color scheme.

Marihel Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I really like the recent deluxe skins, I just feel like they are given to the wrong warframes. I will surely buy this tho, I do not mind a buff Valkyr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mesa and Garuda wear what can be interpreted as a cropped jacket/a short vest (not sure about what to call Garuda's top in English). Banshee wears a bolero. Yareli and Titania's deluxe wear dresses. Part of the design idea behind Warframe is to incorporate clothing/armor into a bio-mechanic design. Zephyr deluxe was also a very heavily debated design, but it still was included and was voted best female deluxe AND worst female deluxe in my survey. Some designs are polarizing and that is good.

I don't actually think Valk's a berserker though, not mechanically anyway (Though I do love that idea, it fits in with the frame's backstory and aesthetic). She's an Agile Support Tank. Pop 4 to become invulnerable and resurrect downed allies in the Battlefield. Soar across it with ripline, invigorate your allies with Warcry, and open up Enemies up to finishers in an Area with Paralysis. Her kit doesn't really do any damage, and the damage she does do, is outclassed in terms of area by most other frames, including her Genderbent "Strength" counterpart - Rhino.

Make Eternal War a default function, and allow for Paralysis to recast the slow and armor buff. Give her a new 3rd ability that pushes her damage further. Make Hysterical assault part of Hysteria by default. Give her a new passive that prevents slash procs from bypassing her armor. That is more than enough to make her a lot more relevant and desirable in the current state of the game. I believe She need some fixing as well, and agree with most of this ^^^^ especially If [DE] chooses not to do anything with Ripline on Valkyr I think putting it the Helminth is an excellent idea, it could be some kind of badass infested tentacle. But Eternal War Imo doesn't need to be default. And my idea for a damge ability - BLOOD FRENZY! 🫀 I'm imagining a ability that once activated, gives Valkyr a sort of combo counter for a duration/scales with duration, and give her damage to everything guns n, melee, The more she kill's the higher the combo the more damage she then does. I think it should scale with power strength and enimie level. And this "combo counter" should have UI like Nidus/Saryn stacks or that is to say I would like it placed there on the hud. As for the Deluxe skin, I do hope the jacket come's off not cause I dislike but for the option to do so (I think the jacket cool btw 😉) otherwise I like it 😤👍💗🔥. Ps. Lookin at her makes me want vanilla ice cream with strawberry sauce mmmhhp!!! ✌😋💗. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
