GhostlightX Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 i vote they just remove iron skin and swap in an ability that does dmg...i find IS pointless at this time as i can get the same effect dmg mitigation wise using steel fiber and just throw on fast defl and hide when shields are low The damage reduction frm Iron Skin was pretty irrelevant. It could have been removed for all I care. The ability to not be knocked about, stunned etc is what made it the ability it was. As of now, it is useless, because as you rightly say, the damage mitigation was and is rather irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingTaro Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Guys, did any DE share a word about this IS nerf yet? I've checked a few topics but couldn't find anything. If they did, I'd appreciate it if you could redirect me to their reply. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadly-Bagel Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Aaaaaand cue the torrent of hate from all the people who just sold their Rhino xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulie Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 (edited) He's been on the shelf for a while. I pull him off to help people farm bosses, but now I think he'll be staying on the shelf. I may just sell him later on to make room for new Warframes. Iron Skin was the only good power he had and now he has much less purpose. Rhino Charge is a weak version of Excalibur's slash dash Radial Blast didn't do much damage and had a small radius Rhino Stomp also doesn't do much damage and now Vauban has a similar power, only it's 2-3x more useful.

pixelsafoison Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Nope, rendered useless to ME (some might still like it, but i'm a rusher so if it doesn't have invincibility against toxics anymore it is obsolete, might aswell go with frost) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZWarhammer Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 He will get rebuffed, meanwhile since rhino is a first frame for most people i suggest maxing others till rhino is a bit weak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiffmeister Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Won't bother using him anymore. I would have rathered an increase to iron skin energy cost than a nerf to the skill itself. The utility/damage that Vauban has has just highlighted that skills need a rework or a buff rather than a nerf IMO. Yes, silly me, trying to focus on the melee aspect of a shooting game, but Rhino gave me JUST that with IS, now, not so much... Devs have said they wanted melee/shooting/powers to all be on the same level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eisvogel Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 thats stupid x3 Well, it's not exactly stupid.... if they were in a tight spot with slots, this could have tipped the balance into selling it and freeing a slot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyza Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I feel ya ;( Yep, let's hope for good stuff... Just got my Rhino last night, I started building him prior to the update and my heart sank when I saw the patch notes while it was still building. I may have not had the chance to use Rhino before the updated but I sure hope they patch him up, Rhino's a stud ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
