Bullet Deflecting Is A Lost Dream

[Impact6]

What's the use of blocking to deflect bullets if you'd die within 5 seconds anyway. Channeling gives you 2 seconds more but completely consumes your 525 energy reserve. It's things like these that make me want the stamina bar again. : (

Bandaid mods are the solution to everything! Just look at Covert Lethality. It's not like we barely have enough slots to fit the essential mods.

Warframe, the great balancing act. I like that stamina is gone and blocking isn't anymore useless than it was before. I call it a net win for Tenno everywhere.

I don't get your point. There's no mod available that makes bullet deflecting (one of the coolest things imo) viable.

They are going to add scaling to blocking off of weapon level. We'll have to wait and see how that will work. DE recognizes that in its current state blocking isn't effective.

from what it sounded like in the devstream it'll be slightly worse than we have now, where unranked weapons aren't going to be good at blocking at all, and then the blocking progresses up to where it is now at max rank. Essentially changing nothing and adding more difficulty to those at lower levels who like to use melee.
