SDGDen Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 its actually broken in more than one way. fun fact: rhino stomp's slowdown is the ONLY one in the game that doesnt scale with power strength, it's always 97.5% slowdown (aka 1/40th speed). this is one of the many parts that make him a really good newbie frame. he has a crowd control that doesnt need investment to be good on top of a survivability tool that doesnt need investment to be good. even roar is already pretty okay without any strength mods. but despite that, rhino does still *benefit* from more investment, so he grows with the newbie as they collect mods, arcanes and subsumes to increase their power. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of many CC abilities/effects that do so. It might be the best though. Celestial Stomp is also quite good for this, but a lot clunkier. And takes an augment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not say anything against the Rhino, I want to draw attention to the fact that its ability does not work correctly, I want Digital Extremes to pay attention to this too. 7 минут назад, Tiltskillet сказал: One of many CC abilities/effects that do so.

I completely agree with you, it's unclear why Digital Extremes just blocked the operation of some abilities, but at the same time they most likely forgot about the Rhino stomp and the 3 Wisp ability, which by the way also needs to be repaired. Hey, I just don't want some frames to have everything, others have nothing, Rhino is already a very strong warframe in itself, which is warmly accepted by the community, as well as Wisp, but this is not a reason to turn a blind eye to the fact that their abilities literally work unusually or stronger than they should be, for some warframes, the opposite is true.

Yes and no. I didn't read everything, in fact I was talking about what I checked myself. I was no longer talking in general about the abilities that work on enemies with Overguard, I was talking specifically about control abilities. After all, Overguard, by its very nature, should give the enemy Eximus full protection from control effects and some effects aimed at blinding the target with Overguard (like 3 Equinox abilities). But for some reason, the ability of Rhino and Wisp does not concern this and it is not normal. Edited January 16 by DezerayTwT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I don't think it true it's literally the only one, what's most remarkable to me about Stomp is how infrequently I see Rhino players using it. Maybe they're all playing low range builds, I don't know. :/ 5 minutes ago, DezerayTwT said: I was no longer talking in general about the abilities that work on enemies with Overguard, I was talking specifically about control abilities. Well, me too. Although some of those listed in the thread are "borderline CCs" or maybe not CC at all by many definitions. Aggro manipulations, for example. But they're mentioned for the sake of completeness, and because many definitions are not all definitions. If you know of outright errors or omissions or learn of any, I still update that thread periodically and would like to hear about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you know of outright errors or omissions or learn of any, I still update that thread periodically and would like to hear about them. As far as I know, there are several factors that determine the protection from control for enemies with Overguard, these are the rag doll effect, blinding, slowing down, stunning, any kind of staggering and most importantly, moving the unit in space, again in any way, all this is prohibited by Overguard. Rhino's ability is a very strong slowdown and logically it should be banned, but for some reason it does not fall. The Wisp ability is blinding, blinding also falls under the ban for Overguard enemies, HOWEVER, for some reason it works. There are effects that can work partially on enemies, say we have Yareli bubbles that hang enemies and increase damage on them, hanging will not work on enemies with Overguard, but damage avoidance will work and there are many similar abilities. The oddities begin when the ability is not actually a control, but for some reason it does not work on enemies with Overguard, for example 3 Equinox ability, in fact it is not a control, it is a debuff, but for some reason the system considers it a control and turns it off on Overguard enemies.

I just expressed some points, because of which our judgments may differ, so that there would be no unnecessary incomprehensible situations.

Fred_Avant_2019 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 The fact that you actually found a Rhino player unironically using Stomp to slow down eximus units rather than blasting their head off with a 564561% roar boosted gun surprised me more than the fact that the ability works against them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred_Avant_2019 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 il y a 30 minutes, DezerayTwT a dit : yes bro, I've already played this game a lot of time and I want it to have fewer skills that don't work correctly. Sure, but that wouldn't be the only time Overguard acts funky. Silence prevents Overguarded enemies from using their spells (like fireblast from arson eximus, breaks frozen shields of arctic eximus...) Blinds seem to work despite Overguard. I wouldn't go as far as to say this is an intended interaction, but considering it's not been adressed this whole time, it might be, OR it's a spaghetti code issue.

Famecans Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Descriptive mess: some skills remove armor from bosses while other skills that cost double energy do not remove armor from bosses; some abilities destroy nullifier bubbles while others cannot; some exalted skills can target specific bosses and enemies while other skills cannot hit them... the existence of eximus enemies is a bandaid for nuke abilities and this bandaid further nerfed all the clumsy warframes; The addition of green and orange shards was an improvement for clumsy warframes but this improved warframes with nuke abilities. In short: as long as the enemies don't have the AI reworked to hunt spam nuke players this game will continue to be a descriptive mess. As long as the nerfs and buffs are not aimed at classes that are the focus of the problem, this game will continue to be a descriptive mess; Until new classes and subcategories are created for weapon, damage, abilities, warframes, this game will continue to be a mess. thanks for reading.

Look, silence blocks the abilities of Eximus enemies, this is its main feature, but also when it first affects the enemy, it stuns him for a short period of time, Eximus enemies are not affected by this stun, because they have an Overguard, which gives enemies immunity to almost all controls in the game. Blocking abilities with banshee silence is its negative effect, enemies with Overguard do not block this effect, so it works and it's fine. With the abilities of Rhino and Wisp, the situation is different, they inflict control on the enemy with Overguard and this is not normal, I ask you to pay attention to this.
