RawGritz Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) It would be cool if an additional way to obtain the Glaive was similar to how you nab the Cronus--by defeating a boss. Let the Glaive drop from the Stalker! Still random... Still have to work for it... But it creates a new way to obtain the weapon. Many have fought the Stalker but few have defeated him--plus he currently gives you nothing for the effort. So adding this way to obtain the Glaive would serve several purposes. 1. Give the Stalker a bit more purpose 2. spur users to play and try to initiate the Stalker's presence 3. keep rushers with the party to help kill stalker for a chance to obtain the Glaive 4. increase user playtime and CCUs.

FrostWolf Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) Stalker should just have the Vandal set and the Glaive just to rub it in how much cooler he is then you. Edited April 27, 2013 by FrostWolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worira Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I really like this idea, actually. Yeah, it's still random, but at least you can increase your odds of getting it by playing the game, plus it gives Stalker a point beyond "haha screw you player".

ArcSynder Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 That's...actually a very good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EclipsedHusky Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 He doesn't die, he drops to about 20% or below health, sits then vanishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swarovsky Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) But But that's a myth! :C i never see stalker in game =O Edit: O.o and why i got downvotes on my post? did i say something wrong? O.o it's true i never see stalker ingame before O.o maybe 1 day O.o but that's no reason to downvote someone opinion o.o Edited April 27, 2013 by Swarovsky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RawGritz Posted April 27, 2013 Author Share Posted April 27, 2013 Think how accomplished you would feel. I know DE knows this...they have to, to be in the Free 2 play business. But profit is almost equally important as CCUs (aka concurrent users). The current way to obtain the Glaive and this way would bolster both spending and user play time.

RawGritz Posted April 27, 2013 Author Share Posted April 27, 2013 He doesn't die, he drops to about 20% or below health, sits then vanishes. No the Stalker can be killed. There are several images of this around the forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolluxCaptorTA Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 If this happens, make the Stalker die and not teleport out. Maybe if he goes for ten or so seconds without taking damage he can teleport out, but not just "sit down, get out" like it is right now. But I would like to see this.

vSabre Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Honesty, Ive got no problems with the way they implemented the glaive. Having said that, I like this idea BUT, it SHOULDNT be a guaranteed drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namacyst Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I suggested to let the stalker drop dark sword bp (when it was still bugged from alerts) and banshee bp parts a long time ago. He needs some loot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EclipsedHusky Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I'd rather the stalker dropped something like a com-device that has Lotus on the other line, slowly finding out you're insane cause its your own com @.@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcarusNine Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 While we're at it, can he drop neurodes and control modules? It'd save me some trouble. And lower his damage, so I don't lose a chance at glaive bp just because I'm leveling a new frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shion963 Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) BAM! You deal the final crippling shot. The Stalker stops whatever he's murdering, sits down and on the left of your screen the dialogue box appears "It seems that I have misjudged your prowess.... indeed you are worthy of the <current warframe> Warframe you wear." *an item drop pops out of his character model* You walk over to pick it up... +34 Nano Spores. ;P Edited April 27, 2013 by Shion963 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be so typical. But I'm fine with it dropping irregularly. I have fun farming. But I want to be proactive about obtaining my goods. I don't want them spoon fed and I don't want to sit around waiting for an alert. Yet all those should remain. Let just add an additional wrinkle to the Glaive acquisition.

TheGreyGuardian Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I'd love it if the Stalker came in and you damaged him enough, he would do his little meditation thing and poof away, but instead of just pissing off, he goes and hides in one of the little secret areas all the maps have. So then you guys could explore and hunt him down. And I guess him having a very small chance of dropping some rare bps would be acceptable.

Renan.Ruivo Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I'd rather have him drop something really unique, and not something you can grab from the market with 10 bucks. Something that not even plat-rich founders would have unless they defeated the Stalker in one-on-one combat. A trophy, you can call it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently his pockets are full of smoke and dicey pictures of Lotus topless at a Justin Bieber concert. He uses those to bribe her silence. Why she says nothing when he attacks.

Renan.Ruivo Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 His head? As a throwable weapon? Didn't said that, i said a trophy. A trophy is something you get out of a challenging experience. With that said, i think that his head would perform better as a throwable weapon than the current iteration of the Glaive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
