Berserker Name Revealed - Sorta!

[Brimir]

 S#&$, I don't wanna do anything when I press 4. Pass for me. Also Valkyr sounds more masculine than feminine.

 

I like it. I like it a lot. It takes the classic Valkyria and puts sort of a sci-fi spin on it.

 

Valkyr.

 

Val-kyr.

 

I am in love.

[Ishki88]

Where is Nyx Prime then

[WildJuice]

While this was shown on the Stream, it is indeed subject to change.

Misleading title lol

[AlchemistMute]

Hes not enough of trickster for me. maybe since i'm still ranking him it feels like that. I'll see how i max him how i feel later.

I dunno about you, but a distracting Decoy to get your aggro on a fake self is pretty tricky. Same with.. well, disorienting the target by instantly switching places with them, causing their weapons to explode in their hands, and disappearing from sight.

[Tarudizer]

The name is too manly

 

Really? "Valkyr" are female.

 

Wat

[Furyion]

so with 2 female frames coming ember prime and valkyr ..means next 2 are male. and Hopeing a REVISION OF Excalibur...Prime. Since regular XCAL received the splits...literaly.

Yes I thought so but I really think it is a good name personally. I would easily relate to it.

[BETAOPTICS]

Cleaned thread. Consider the off topic conversation over. 

Yeah my bad, I always saw Off-Topic section about everything not relating to the game itself heavily. I stand corrected though.

[Brahmastra]

I really hope its a placeholder, we already have a Warframe starting with the letter V

 

muh autism.

[fatpig84]

Moar farm for your farm !

[Brimir]

I really hope it isn't a placeholder

 

:3

Had to post it:

But I completely understand that, maybe we could try to figure out some alternative names here or make a separate thread about it for those who don't like the current name =)

[Darkfreack]

Hey, you know what? This name was suggested in the Design Council.

 

PRAISED BE THE FOUNDERS

 

(and the one in particular who suggested Valkyrie/Valkyr/Valkyria first.)

 

EDIT: Brimir was the one to suggest Valkyrie first.

 

 

The grappling ability is also courtesy of the DC :P

 

Can you please not bait them, you know clearly we had nothing to do with this warframes naming, we just gave ability feedback.

[Kaian-a-coel]

Hey, they can't buy it anymore anyway.

And the name "Valkyrie" was indeed suggested spontaneously.

Bait as in trying to make them upset on purpose. It may be fun but it will just make all DC members as &#! hats and hateful people.

[Stormandreas]

Seeing as how my Trinity basically is a god(dess). It seems like a fitting name to me.

No, Trinity is the name used for 3 gods as one entity. I don't see the Trinity frame being 3 people in one.

fix'd

 

Fusion dance into another Fusion dance is the only way to explain such a brawlic skirt. Confirmed.

Personally, I'm not a fan of Valkyr. During the livestream, they showed her ultimate (correct me if I'm wrong) and it was a series of slashes. They also stated it will be a fast fury of hits. Perhaps name her something with more of a haste/insane-esque feel?

[Spriggs]

The Berserker's name should be a reference to the Furies, if not named after one of them. It would be more fitting than Valkyr, though I must say that if it's a reference to Max Payne, I'm more inclined to say it's fitting. The appropriateness of the name depends on the context the name is being given.

But seriously, Furies.

[Brimir]

Nah, too close to Furries.

The council also suggested the name "Null" for Nova.

 

The Grappling ability is going to be as useful as bounce.

If I wanted to pull I'd play Mag to pull them ALL to me.

Or Loki or Ash So I could get into the group.

And not waste 25 energy to dislocate a SINGLE enemy.

I foresee a veritable sh**ton of Rework threads for her in the future.

[Brimir]

The grappling hook is going to damage enemies. The pull effect will presumably only happen if you target a non-grunt enemy who wouldn't instantly die from it.

 The point of the skill isn't the pull. It is a grappling hook. It is a mobility skill.

 

 The pulling/damage part is a secondary function that suits her because she is a close range frame.

 

 As a damage/pull skill it IS lacking, yes, but that hardly matters. It is only one part of what the skill is good for.

[Brimir]

As long as it does sort of the same damage as Soul Punch, it will be good enough.
