rroorr Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 One of the reasons why I was farming for Scindo Prime (and eventually gave up by buying the blade with plat) was because of the Manticore Axe skin - I wanted to use it on a weapon that is actually good. However, I learned that the ability to apply skins to Scindo Prime was disabled because of a bug with attack speed connected to the skins that tweaked the weapon's stats. I imagine there had to be a bigger problem with the code that the decision to remove them completely was made, so I would like to propose separating the normal and prime variants of the skins - only the former would have stats while the latter were cosmetic. Every owner of a skin would be given both variants automatically and there would be no bugs (ideally). Both the players and DE would benefit from this, seeing how many skins Scindo currently has.

Tali Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 sorry but it wont probably happen anytime soon and prime weapons use a different mesh (i think) so normal skine doesnt work with so in order to have skins for them, they have to make entirely new skins which requires a lot work.

Glaive-Prime using Proto-Glaive skin Paris-Prime using Arrow skins (Can only assume Phased Ankryos Skin works on Ankyros Prime) Numerous Warframe skins on Prime varints DE is not consistent, I think the community prefers the options of skins versus DE outright banning all skins on Prime variants.

Coerrywuas Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 (edited) Don't forget Reaper Prime. It can equip the "Spearmint" skin, too. DE, YOU GOTTA READ THIS ASAP!!!!! I own three skins (Dagger Axe Skin, Manticore Axe Skin) and even PAID 40 platinum for the user-built "Combustion" skin. I sold the regular Scindo, too. You seriously must be kidding us!

Sakatchi Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Mesh has nothing to do with it. The sole reason they removed it is because of the stat-changing skins. The stat increase on that skin was negated basicly by how slow it made the weapon. I would be fine with a non stated manticore skin though, since that thing looked awesome.

Noobsdie4eva Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Wrong. It's for ALL Scythes (Reaper Prime & Hate)if you check your inventory there are 3. One for each of the weapons you can put it on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatpig84 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Because those skins deals extra damage or extra attack speed and makes SP even more OP than before. That is why it was removed by DE. Skins like Glaive skins don't actually add stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why it was removed by DE. Skins like Glaive skins don't actually add stats. I already mentioned why they were removed and proposed a solution, read the entire post and not just the title. They were bugged and only handicapped the weapon if anything. Edited May 19, 2015 by rroorr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammun Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 It's a shame they removed the ability to use skins on scindo prime, come on, was it that hard to make it so scindo prime doesnt get stats from skins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind leaving out the Manticore Axe Skin, if DE would just give me back the other two skins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluelitHalo Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) Please make this happen. The fact that I can't give it the gritty, hard-boiled Grineer look is the only reason I refuse to use it. Even if they didn't separate skins, there wouldn't be much consequence from making the skins statless, especially due to how unpopular the normal Scindo is.

Eldnacpeek Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I like Dagger Axe, so there was no stat change at all from my side and it actually looked good. Then sudden removal for no apparent reason and makes DE seem highly inconsistent, which they very much have been as of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urska Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 sorry but it wont probably happen anytime soon and prime weapons use a different mesh (i think) so normal skine doesnt work with so in order to have skins for them, they have to make entirely new skins which requires a lot work. tbh, that only matters if it changes the texure, but if it changes the whole model, as some skins do its just as easy as puting a true next to it..., now if it just dose texure, they petty much have to re texure it.... i would know i do this stuff for work... 3D modelin n all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonewolf1942 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 sorry but it wont probably happen anytime soon and prime weapons use a different mesh (i think) so normal skine doesnt work with so in order to have skins for them, they have to make entirely new skins which requires a lot work. Glaive Prime rocks the Proto Glaive skin just fine along side the Halikar and standard Glaive. I've said the same thing during the last Devstream and DE_Meghan responded that the artists that make Prime weapons like to see the model's and things they worked so hard on actually used in game. To that I respond with this: What about the artist's who made the Skins? They're hard work gets shelved to collect dust because the prime variant of something out-classes the standard? TL;DR Allow us to use our Scindo skins (stats or not) on Scindo Prime please DE. For the love of skins. Please DE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeejayPwny Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I bought the day of the dead skin specifically because it could work on scindo prime. When they removed that, there was no reason for me to have the skin and I effectively wasted 40p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
