Valkyr Warcry Suggestion

[Whytee]

Hello, I have been playing Valkyr quite a lot recently and I feel she has two very major drawbacks which hinder her viability greatly and might be touched upon - knockdown and status.

 

Unlike other Warframes that prefer to fight at range, Valkyr specializes in close up melee combat, which makes her extremely vulnerable to CC/Status - however unlike the other 'melee viable' frames she has no sneaky tricks or straight up immunity to CC/Status (Such as Ash/Loki invis, Trinity Link or Rhino Iron skin), meaning if she gets hit with these effects it is more or less a death sentence, especially in higher level missions. This also makes Valkyr (one of the most 'melee-focused' frames) out-classed by several other frames that aren't even particularly orientated towards melee.

 

My suggestion would be to enhance her Warcry, to allow her to engage in melee combat with any (or all) of the following suggestions:

 

1. add knockback recovery to Warcry

 

or

 

2. add knockback resistance to Warcry

 

or

 

3. add status-effect immunity to Warcry

 

Thanks for reading!

 hysteria has knockback immunity and makes you literally invincible.

It also scales horribly and forces you to stay that way for the duration.

 

Hysteria is a panic button, nothing more.

 

Edit: Also - the viability of hysteria as even a 'panic button' is somewhat lacking, since the only time you need it is when you get disrupted - ironically the only time that you cannot use it.

hysteria is bugged, just wait until they fix it and do not touch valkyr until.

It's used to regain your health that you've lost due to having such low shields. Also you can use it in high wave defense/survival to survive while reviving your team mates.  Also pretty much everything scales horribly.
