DeathMavrik Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 Why would you heavily advertise him as having an exalted spear and shield........and then not do it? I was so unbelievably hyped from the animation trailer (the first thing we see of him) showing Styanax summoning a spear and shield to fight...... But then the actual kit robs us of the coolest idea of an exalted weapon. I just feel utterly disappointed.
Rakosta_Kai Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 Huh? I must have missed that. I didn't see any mention of exalted weaponry in any of the teasers or pictures of him. What are you speaking of specifically?
(XBOX)SweatyPick3L Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 whatt do you mean. His 1, 2 and 4 uses an exalted (or energy) spear and shield.
(XBOX)GearsMatrix301 Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 They never advertised him as an exalted user. You just assumed he was. 5 minutes ago, (XBOX)YoungGunn82 said: whatt do you mean.

An exalted has to be a seperate, moddable weapon that’s summoned upon casting one of the frames abilities. the spears and shield are just the visual effects of Styanax abilities.

And this sounds like semantics matrix. His abilities cast energy weapons, looks like an exalted weapon to me.

His abilities cast energy weapons, that's pretty exalted. All of them are moddable. there’s the pseudo-exalted which require a melee weapon to have mods applicable to them. Styanax’s has neither exalted nor pseudo-exalted abilities.

Mine is and ability that cast a weapon, energy or otherwise makes it exalted. And when u cast hiss 1, 2 and 4 I see exalted spears. Guess that just me

Can you link to an example of this heavy advertising? Hey, I'm disappointed too. But let's not confuse our personal hopes with promises, or slander DE without evidence.

Excalibur....Baruuk...Valkyr...Titania etc. This is why we're asking OP for his evidence.
Mediloric Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 Wasn't there a weapon in the melee slot during the preview called "Slaytra" or something? maybe that'd be it as a standard weapon? Is it just a renamed weapon lol?

Rantear Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 I just realised. We were not shown his shield, right? Or did I miss it somehow...

V2lkyr Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 Most exalted weapons in this game are not worth using over normal weapons. Also I'm glad I don't have to sink in forma for him,then the spear,then the shield. (like how Sevagoth eats so much forma). But most importantly they never advertised him as having exalted weapons and you just made that one up.
0_The_F00l Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 I don't recollect anyone stating that he was going to use an exalted weapon, Most people just assumed so after looking at the trailer.
Numerikuu Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 A lesson in why assuming isn't always a great idea. That aside, I'm glad he's not an exalted weapon frame.

I recall a few people on youtube saying so but they where only unofficial content creators and not any connection to DE that im aware of. and they did not cite a source for that information so was just misinformation because of hopes or wishes
(PSN)AyinDygra Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 I personally wasn't expecting any exalted things from him... But I was expecting a Spear/Shield combo, even if it was just a type of sword (or mace) /shield that already exists in the game. It's not out of the question yet... but it hasn't been shown off, to my knowledge. I can't stand spear guns... I'm a melee guy... so that thing will be mastery fodder for me.

Because it clearly showed Styanax fighting with a lance, blocking with a shield and also throwing energy lances.
(PSN)slightconfuzzled Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 What I want to know is why did they advertise him as a vegan? If he isn't actually a vegan? In the first teaser he wasn't shown at a BBQ after killing a cow and then grilling it up, to make hamburgers for Grendel and Valkyr, so I assumed he was Vegan. Then in the new game play, I saw him eating a Turducken! Thats like... the opposite of vegan. Okay I am being silly on purpose. I can actually see how someone might have assumed he was, but eh. I try not invest in my own assumptions, to avoid disappointment. So you have my sympathies. Another reason I try and avoid doing that too, is it can mean, even if a Warframe does have really cool abilities and synergy... my own disappointment can prevent me from enjoying and appreciating the cool stuff actually going on, just because I assumed differently... so its like robbing myself of the enjoyment again. A double blow.
