Surs_ 8 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I was playing warframe as usual and i had noticed that nova's molecular prime didn't create a chain reaction that should have killed the surrounding enemies. I've looked at the patch notes and there wasn't anything that was mentioned (that i could see any ways). Am i missing something? Why did they nerf it? Molecular Prime Before: Primes all enemies in a radius with anti-matter. Upon death the antimatter and matter collide causing chained radial damage. Molecular Prime Now: Primes all enemies in a radius with volatile anti-matter. Link to post Share on other sites
Sixty5 20,819 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Playing as client or host? It was wonky for awhile, but should be back to chaining as of a couple of hotfixes ago. Don't remember any more notes about it sorry. Link to post Share on other sites
CatScratch 749 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I can confirm it works as before. They most likely only changed the tooltip description. Link to post Share on other sites
Surs_ 8 Posted December 21, 2013 Author Share Posted December 21, 2013 I might have been host but its happened in all my games. Link to post Share on other sites
_Absolom_ 4,773 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Does not chain right now. No idea how this works. Link to post Share on other sites
Naftal 8,654 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 To my experience, all explosions in this game are bugged every now and then, not hitting the targets in their AOE. ALL Link to post Share on other sites
Festinger 160 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I did some snooping earlier and some suggest that it works as before when played as host or solo. I have not confirmed this myself though. Link to post Share on other sites
Bovopolont 110 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Works fine for me Link to post Share on other sites
LegendairyWarframe 423 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Tested on T1E, MPrime Range decreased, enemy explosion radius greatly reduced, does not chain. Link to post Share on other sites
Kiite 1 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Is this for real? I just finished building my Nova with mods that were hard to get and I was being able to explode things under lv;30 easily in the chain reaction from Molecular Prime but now it won't kill lv.16 stuff. If this is true it will be sad, so sad. Link to post Share on other sites
Nickeltoe 604 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 (edited) Nova has been stealth nerfed in every patch since her release. At least the hipster balance crowd will be happy. Edited December 21, 2013 by Nickeltoe Link to post Share on other sites
BadAimbot 683 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Nova has been stealth nerfed in every patch since her release. At least the hipster balance crowd will be happy. Yeah, what a horrible change. Now all it does is slow enemies by 50% and increase the damage they receive by 100%! What a useless ability. Link to post Share on other sites
Figasebe 138 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 can confirm. Its bugged, or nerfed. Link to post Share on other sites
-HAKUNA-YOUR-TATAS- 15,438 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Yeah it doesn't seem to chain anymore. I now have to shoot the enemies one by one after m-prime. Link to post Share on other sites
CatScratch 749 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Then it's a bug certainty not a nerf, works for me just had 700 kills on Kiste Link to post Share on other sites
Figasebe 138 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Its wierd. Sometimes its work as it should, and sometimes its not. I guess its bugged. Link to post Share on other sites
TankHunter678 881 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Its wierd. Sometimes its work as it should, and sometimes its not. I guess its bugged. I have been noticing the same with other AoE weapons. I hit a gunner in the head with my Ogris and it does no damage. Despite me being the only person in the run. Same with my Stug and Penta as well. Its like there are invisible walls blocking the blast radius from functioning from time to time. Link to post Share on other sites
Preanette 232 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Same goes for Mag's Shield Polarize if not hosting. Link to post Share on other sites
AkioKasai 168 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 The only thing I've noticed different about M Prime is that it no longer has punch-through, so it doesn't chain explosions through crates or walls anymore. But it still chains and with a large radius still as well. Link to post Share on other sites
Chaosdreamer 1,933 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Not chainning always , but lately the channing is missing alot... Link to post Share on other sites
Bocheezu 0 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I think it's just bugged. I haven't been able to get it to chain for a couple days now, but I've had cases where someone else gets a kill and everything evaporates like normal. Other times it won't chain for anybody. Very buggy. Link to post Share on other sites
-CM-Aeon 153 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Devs should answer this topic. Bug or nerf. Intentional or just unexpected. Nova sux now. She is just a debuffer. Link to post Share on other sites
Naftal 8,654 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Devs should answer this topic. Bug or nerf. Intentional or just unexpected. Nova sux now. She is just a debuffer. Haven't tried Antimatter Drop? Link to post Share on other sites
LordAsmolicious 624 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Yeah AoE targeting is wonky atm. Like Oberons Ulti occasionaly doesnt pick up certain targets.. or it simply does no damage. or for the Penta... explosion doesnt hit anyone even though its in their face.

Virtus_Dei_Est 1,738 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Nova has been stealth nerfed in every patch since her release. At least the hipster balance crowd will be happy. is a bug, prolly related to lag from not hosting. "hipster balance crowd", well thats a new one, but yes, if nova get balanced and one button lazy players are forced to use more frames and weapons, i would be really happy.
