S.Dust Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 I like the conclave event it's small but it's nice to have the mode acknowledged and to have people playing it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kahrain Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 I really, really really wish it had some kind of background music though. The silence is total torture for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nslay Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 I don't like the melee weapon. Maybe I can rebind it to an impossible-to-press key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MutoManiac Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 First time experiencing conclave since nobody ever showed up before. Lots of fun, would love the plains to be an arena. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)robotwars7 Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 I played one round, just to say I gave it a fair shake. it's kinda clunky, and you can tell when you're matched with one of the few that still plays conclave, because they do stuff you don't normally see randoms doing, like wall-hopping. it's too janky for my taste, but I guess for a month at least, Conclave might see some traffic. I just wish DE would make a final decision on whether or not to scrap conclave, and if not, they should at least throw out a new map every couple of updates to make the mode relevant again for the few who like it. I'll never bother with it, but there's no reason that DE couldn't make warframe have decent PvP if they wanted to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nslay Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Yeah, just tried it out. I re-binded melee to a key in the far off right corner of the keyboard ('Pause' for me) and I just used the snow balls. Got lots more kills and died less. IMO, don't use melee in this event because it's like a really bad version of normal Warframe melee... it locks you in animation and thrusts you forward like normal Warframe melee, but feels way worse! Instead, kill the players who using melee. They get locked into something like 1 second of uncontrollable melee animation (more if pre-frozen) and they are ripe to be picked off.

nslay Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 DE, I think this is how you should deal with melee in PVP... this Q3 Arena with Gauntlet (melee weapon). Notice the complete lack of melee animation that locks you up along with (usually) undesirable forward thrusting motion. IMO, these stance motions/move combos from PVE have NO PLACE in PVP (this is not Street Fighter either!). Heck, I don't even think a lot of stances/combos have a place in PVE either!

0_The_F00l Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Hmm , might finally rank up conclave. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaiga Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 This mode is more proof that Conclave should be abolished, or at the very least reworked. This mode isn't any better, slow, unintuitve, can hardly tell teammates from enemies, hits not connecting due to ping differences, the one saving grace is that there's nothing significant as a reward. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayrack Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 I was kinda happy, that's at least SOMETHING about Conclave... And then... I just completed ONE match... ZERO players in the lobby since... "Hehehe DE is making you play Conclave" - well, jokes on you DE, you ain't making anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that will be enough to keep most players who might have engaged with from doing so. PvP doesn't work in a game like this, especially when it was just tacked on after the fact to appease/appeal to an extreme minority. We need Conclave analytics to remain garbage, to deincentivize DE from putting things behind it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, dang, that's good advice. I'm sure I spent half my time throwing snowballs at my team. Maybe I can get that down to 40% or so, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ground slam is extremely powerful, inflicting both knockdown and cold on top of like 70 damage, leaving the victim a sitting duck.

First off, it's using the OLD, much slower, weapon switch animations, so you can't do any sort of melee->snowball combo. The ground slam victim is a sitting suck, but so is the slammer. Combine this with -- as you pointed out -- Stalking Fan being really bad, and trying to melee in any map besides Corpus Core is a death sentence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvelous_A Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 It's kind of funny because it's silly but tbh it will be frustrating if we need more than 3 games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
