December 2022 Riven Dispositions

[[DE]Connor]

Greetings Tenno!

Meeting his enemies with a passive fist, Baruuk Prime strikes onto all platforms for the holidays. And you know what that means - more Riven disposition changes!

With many recent changes to weapons (explosives, semi-auto, etc.) and perhaps more coming in the future, we are choosing to be more conservative than usual with our changes, to avoid whiplash if things look different next time.

As an added bonus, we are improving some Companion Weapon Rivens - the Hound weapons (Akaten, Batoten and Lacerten) are all being increased from 0.5 to 1! Since we don’t currently adjust these Rivens, we’re just bringing them up to the average. Thanks to everyone who reported this inconsistency.

Our previous set of changes can be found here, and our guidelines and principles for these changes can be found here.

Thanks for reading, and have a great holiday season!

That didn't really need buffing but okay I guess?

What? Yes please I will take a buff on a weapon that I have 15 rivens for (no I am not joking I actually do have 15 Boltace rivens)

Just make it 1.5 dispo at this point. Weapon is agreed to be pretty garbage with the stance it has right now.

 

Smaller list than usual but tons of nice buffs on underrated weapons ice nice to see!

cool buff, but can coravs prime's projectile hitbox please get a fix? video is linked showing the bug below

 

[DrinkingRock]

Seems like either Rivens have gotten to a stable place or the data you're pulling from is becoming too bloated. Hoping it's the former.

[Kadikos]

cool

 You know they don't usually do manual changes right? it's based off our usage stats. so these changes reflect our use since the last set of changes.

Actually, it's 50/50:

On 2022-03-28 at 10:01 AM, [DE]Connor said:

• For each set of adjustments, we generate a “recommended” value for each weapon. This number is based 50% on usage stats from players at high Mastery Rank, and 50% from an “internal ranking”.
• These internal rankings are maintained by Digital Extremes developers based on a weapon’s perceived strength, and are adjusted when opinions change, or when a stronger variant of a weapon is released. Internal rankings are applied per family of weapon - this allows us to keep Dispositions within a family relatively close to each other, to avoid a situation where a weaker weapon becomes the stronger choice once a Riven is applied.

Fact: nobody likes builds with faction mods

[Portlalaland]

So, what made Balla popular, that it's the only one got the nerf?

Me with a Prisma Skana build with the New Loka faction mod: Damn, I knew I was a nobody, but it still hurts. Didn't know bullying was allowed now, lol.

Weapons like Tenet Flux Rifle slasher queen; high firerate; fast reload; very nice aiming recoil; but it's increasing riven's disposition.

do you know why?!?! tenet flux rifle only works with faction mods builds, nobody likes faction mods, a tiberon prime is many times better than a flux rifle and you don't need to equip faction mods. i'm talking about mod like [primed bane of grinner]

Dagger version allows for spam of Exodia Contagion.

Since they split the dispo between variants, and they start from the smallest disposition now instead of in the middle, they generally don't have to be nerfed anymore, so its generally just the newer items slowly working up to where they belong.

So, that's something new?

[ShogunGunshow]

These aren't getting any buffs because they're needed or not needed. Riven dispos are based purely on use stats.

Oh that's just because I got a Balla Riven a couple of days ago.😁
