mcryseria Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I am still confused with the current system but I'm trying to understand it. With the new damage 2.0 how viable is Saryn's Contagion? Do Poison damage Mods exist for weapons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidSPD Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) Poison mods do exist for weapons. As for viability, I couldn't say. Through trial & error it seems like elemental effects on weapons is a really unreliable & mostly ineffective way to deliver status ailments. Percentages don't seem to go very high... so low damage high rate of fire stuff seems better to deliver ailments. In theory direct elemental abilities like Saryn's stuff would be better for it... but I decided a while ago I didn't like Saryn & so she just kinda sits there until I can replace her with Valkyr. If it's anything like Ember I'd guess not so great. Ember's skills seem to be guaranteed to do elemental damage (persistent and DoT), but I'm not sure if that's part of 2.0 or just Ember doing what she does. I did notice though that fire damage wasn't causing enemies to panic, so Ember's Crowd Control is essentially dead, as she is. I have a fire modded Fang Prime and lit an enemy on fire and it didn't cause panic either. I'm not sure if this is a bug or what. Hopefully this is stuff that's going to be worked on, because elemental focused warframes like Ember, Saryn & Volt were SUPPOSED to be helped by this change. The experience I've had with my 4 starred Ember has been pretty bad so far. "caster" build and I have a hard time clearing rooms before I die due to no CC and lackluster damage against level 25-30 infested. INFESTED.

michaelwii Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 They will soon. I believe some people got them from the transmutation bug/glitch a few weeks back, so yeah. Expect them to arrive once DE gets feedback on what is currently available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
