SinReplica Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) People should stop taking every word here so literally. Strategists and tacticians run in the same vein, and boil down to the Whats and Hows.The Warframe descriptions aren't unshakable holy text. Vauban is more an engineer than a tactician, but being tactical or strategic isn't a quality exclusive to any Frame. Is Volt an alternative to guns? Not even remotely. Well, Volt can be tactical. In the last heavy melee only TAC alert I was playing with Volt. Built shields, tried to shock em, but most importantly, I spammed speed around, which also increases attack speed. This was really useful with the slow heavy melee weapons. You beat it with Volt, too. Nothing like going against the machine. Let's hope you didn't use those dreaded tactics to do so or you might get called a Vauban. Edited March 7, 2015 by SinReplica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranks21 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 since you want to quote me on what I said about volt, heres my challenge to you.. map triton, location Neptune, task 3k dig points frame volt enemy type corpus. go now and tell me what you think of his tactical abilities if there is any... disclaimer: he's supposedly to be very strong against this enemy type.

SinReplica Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) Being able to kill enemies with relative ease in this game doesn't define tactical. Having to use a series of procedures to deal with said enemy does. You're putting him in a situation that would support this.

Dreadwire Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Soo with the latest prime instalment in WF. (Unless DE want to troll us and bring in booben) Are we going to see more volt in high tiers mission like t4 survival. TBH I never seen one on high lvl mission. As a volt user myself. I would still not bring him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Censium Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I hope it's volt. They flat out said it durring Tenno Live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLordX2 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) I once ran an hour in a T4 Surv, i was Volt. Volt is viable for high end gameplay. Edited March 7, 2015 by DarkLordX2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadwire Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Well I guess I should give more love to volt. but apparently most party setup does not need him T_T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aumaan Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) I already head to stuff like T4 Survival and Defense as Volt, it's all about using his powers just right (and if you can find a good choke point electric shield can turn it into an almost impenetrable bunker). Would be nice to see an influx of more Volts though, a party of 4 Volts stacking Electric Shield...so much damage. I do hope they give him a looking over before or soon after Volt Prime is released, or at least Overload. The Stun procs on that need to override any animation an enemy could be in, Wide range stun+damage will cement Volts place in high level content.

ZayTM Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Volt is very viable in high-end play, he just isn't a nuker (unless you go 4x corrosive projection, and even then there are frames who do it better). Top-tier mobility, spammable CCs, and electric shield damage stacking. He's quite good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IANOBW Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Volt is kick-&#! in tower defence missions. Keep in mind his shields are indestructable, and are only altered in duration (and they can be deployed for roughly 1 minute duration). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
---RNGesus--- Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 As a volt user myself. I would still not bring him. lol! You should learn how to use him well enough. A player I know did 100 wave in T4D with Volt.......volt is a nuke I tell ya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circle_of_Psi Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 So, why is Nova Prime still up?, where is the "ending soon" or..the new Volt Trailer posted on the new PA Humm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiet_Time1 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 It usually take a a few weeks or a month after the teaser for the frame to be put up in the prime access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tymerc Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Don't worry. The retconned fanservice will be gone soon. Then good old Volt Prime will arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TachyonKnight Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 There are still 10 days or so until they will take out nova's prime access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuuhea_Takasumu Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Why would there be an 'ending soon' until DE knows their release dates for sure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
direcyphre Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Not sure why everyone assumes they know exactly when a new prime should be coming. In some ways it seems obvious that Prime Access is generally separated by roughly 90 days, but there is still some amount of time between teaser release and Prime Access release.

Elannor Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 That arrogant manner of putting words together. Dear, the Prime Access is up for 90 days and has and "ending soon" 1 week prior to its ending. Since there are still 10-12 days left, I can`t see why this thread. Also, teaser trailer come out 2 weeks before the 90 days end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaDude15 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Finnally, the zapper gets an upgrade. Shame it wasn't Ash, but Volt deserved it more i think. I wonder what weapons will he bring with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Educated_Beast Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Volt is also an awesome melee frame with speed and a heavy weapon combine with the ability to shield. He is also one of the stronger pvp frames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xamuswing Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) Personally, I would like more Armor/Energy (Hes a caster, should be balanced like one.) and more Stamina, maybe with an added V polarity.
