Is It Time For Decoy To Get Updated?

[Understray]

It's been shown that DE can create efficient AI (spectres), and illusions that can copy your exact movements (Mirage), but Loki still has his near useless Decoy.

 

How about letting him copy your primary(or secondary) and shoot for 10~30% of your damage, then exploding when killed by enemies?  It would give Loki players a reason to spec into power strength. Reduce the duration of r4 Decoy to 20s(5s, 10s, 15s, 20s growth), and give Decoy 75% of Loki's shield and health(increases with power strength).

 

His explosion damage should probably be around 200~250(around half the damage of most frame's 1 skills), considering Decoy's additional abilities.

its great for switch teleport tho, thats what I use it for. Decoy could literaly be a stick and it would stick work for what I use it for. I do think it should get a copy of your secendary and be able to do some decent damage.

You never know they are revisiting warframes and reviewing abilities so maybe loki will have his turn soon

Decoy draws aggro as expected; what else do you need?  Combined with Radial Disarm it can carry Defense missions with ease and it also functions with Switch Teleport for on-demand mobility.

Personally, I would like to see it proc radiation on death. That alone would make Loki the perfect frame to me.
