Make the plague star faster and better.. You dont need to nerf loki.. 

You dont even care for us sometimes. We want to have fun. Not wait for ever... 

I am ok with you stoping exploits, but have you asked yourselves why people do it? Because this specific drone stage is boring and useless. Change it or put another one.

I think its time for some bounty reworks.

WTF so unnecessary 🤬

EDIT: It seems like it was just poorly worded and they fixed an actual exploit and did not nerf the ability 😅

oh... why won't you just take Loki's Teleport away then... you're already not letting us use it when it matters... you're basically saying to the people that love the frame and have the knowledge about what it can do "No you can't use it as it is intended."

And btw... it didn't make you skip "most of the entire 3rd stage... it would ahve knocked mabye 2 minutes off the timer avoiding the drone to get stuck how it usually does.

Taking away the ability to teleport the drone for 100 m at the time was an unnecessary slap on the face. It was a very very very **** move DE.

Sister Hound / Weapon / Lich Weapon Foundry “Selling” Functionality:

If you’ve engaged in the Adversary hunts with Kuva Liches and Sisters of Parvos, your Foundry might be suffering from some unavoidable clutter. The amount of Hounds and weapons sitting in your Foundry have grown to not only take up room in your list but also within the database itself!

This is just hilarious to me, they've ignored a problem people have been screaming at them since the first release of lichs, that now they're suffering from it too and now magically, because its inconvenient for them, something suddenly must be done.

Plague Star's 3rd Stage has always been able to be sped up by Loki's Switch TP ever since the first time Plague Star released back in November 2017, this is the fifth time it has showed up and you're now changing this as it's a 'bug'?

If you guys didn't design stages with outrageous wait times (looking at you 2nd Stage), or incredibly long distances for the slow as heck drone to travel we as players wouldn't need to resort to things like this to make the grind less boring. This is disappointing, and I'm glad I already got everything new from Plague Star because now I don't believe I'll be doing it any more if this change nullifies the drone from being affected by Loki's Switch TP.

As a Loki player for the longest time, and as one that did this time and time again each time Plague Star showed up, why decide now to say it's a bug and "fix" it. Might as well just make the 3rd stage a 3-4 minute wait timer and let us stand around at the boil waiting for the drone to arrive...

Just pathetic.

Edit:
While my above words still stand in the event of an actual nerf, DE's wording on this seems to be a bit misleading. Just personally tested it on the 3rd Bounty Stage and his Switch TP still works on the drone to my Loki's TP range of about 176m. Either they changed something specific with his Teleport that they don't want to mention (perhaps just a super long range TP you can build for with a team buffed Loki to go all the way to the boil in one go), or the supposed 'fix' didn't actually take effect. I'm honestly a bit confused. Still not thrilled about the idea of the only thing they're going to do to Loki isn't a buff to his Decoy, but a nerf to his Teleport.

2nd Edit:
After a clarification of what they actually changed involving a Sniper Tower, of all things, in relation to his Teleport... I'm still a bit confused. I wasn't aware of this function at all, but I suppose if his Teleport still works as normal then all is fine for now. What's more confusing, however, is if DE was concerned with players being able to skip most of the 3rd Bounty stage, you can still cut the time spent on it down to 25-35% of what it is normally depending on your team placement and your ability range. Doesn't make sense, but I guess for them to make a fuss about it and change it (the sniper tower thing), it must've been capable of finishing the stage in 30 seconds or less. At least that's what I would think.

Sad about the Loki fix. Saw someone else doing that in one of my plague star bounties and thought it was super clever.

No fun/clever gameplay allowed.

So, clever use of ability (the only actuall use for Switch Teleport in game) is now bug?

Can you at least put this as "change" to be fair with yourself at least?

this isn't a "bugfix" , this is a nerf they are trying to pass as a fix. because they are scared and know RIGHTFULLY that people would be pissed.

please clarify if this means the drone can't be swapped at all

I've tried it once solo to see and it seems fine..... I need to do a few runs to tell.

Have you actually tried it after the patch? My assumption was they were fixing the actual bug - dropping it in certain places instantly completed the stage. I haven’t had a chance but I am hoping Loki can still move it.

Please get rid of Loki switch teleport and give Loki a new skill.  It has absolutely no use in a pve horde game and I doubt its useful over invisibility in pvp.  

It is a crap niche skill that has an actual use in this event to shave a minute or two or walking around the plains (few enemies even attack, its just babysitting) and he gets gimped.  

Why would you do this to your own game?  Why do you even think this is a problem?  

 

You patch notes other day said to share your creative techniques, I thought to myself, I sure hope no one does.  You guys cannot be trusted.
