Shadow_Arrows Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 So I've been hearing about the focus system coming out and every time I see a post about balancing or making the useless useful I always see "Wait for focus". Now all i know about focus is its a way to "make your warframe more powerful" that i heard from the live stream. Now what I want to know is what does the focus system do, how will it balance out warframe powers and abilities, and if it will make that much of a difference. I know its all a bit hush hush at the moment but i would appreciate as little speculation as possible about what it does. Just to be clear this post is about focus. What it does and how it will change the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cemges Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Should you google it, you could find some info from design counsil leaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnProdman Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 It will bring bugs and more than a few server crashes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VKhaun Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 (edited) Focus system will involve a potatoe-like item (Lens) that you put on your weapons and frames, to redirect XP that weapon/frame earns towards... something... Details are pretty thin, and what details they have given they've backpeddled on a bit (monster mode / super sayin / long timers), but generally what it promises to 'fix' is the wasted XP you accrue while using your maxed out gear to find the various ingredients you need to make more gear to master. Now that XP will go somewhere. Has nothing to do with gun/frame balance AFAIK. Edited March 9, 2014 by VKhaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HillsAndTheSea Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Now all i know about focus is its a way to "make your warframe more powerful" it doesnt make your warframe more powerful, it makes your tenno more powerful focus is basically skill trees for your tenno, that boost it in various ways, and offer various different benefits ex. +1 weapon accuarcy +1 melee attack rate +rage mode +etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow_Arrows Posted March 9, 2014 Author Share Posted March 9, 2014 So although that sounds like an awesome idea (and I did a bit more research on the topic) won't this just make warframes way more powerful. It seems like the game is already to easy honestly. The only reason i ever fail a mission is when absolutely no one is paying attention. Will focus push that even farther or are the devs making harder content with the focus system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monolake Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 (edited) More long-term progress and power increase for players. Sounds pretty similar to RPG skill-tree to me. It should come together with more high-level content to play, Badlands and what else will be added. Edited March 9, 2014 by Monolake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
