Berserkerkitten Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 (edited) Heya, putting Bright Purity on the Skana Prime works, but if you do it on Excalibur and then fire up Exalted Blade the syndicate mod doesn't seem to do anything. Halp?EDIT: Now I don't see syndicate procs on exalted blade with any weapon. Was that removed? Working as intended? o_O Edited September 5, 2015 by Berserkerkitten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalvorax Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 it was removed because DE went to far with the nerf sword again :| Tenno, Today Covert Lethality will be changed from ‘lethal damage if undetected’ to ‘lethal damage on stealth-finishers’. Covert Lethality is supposed to grant Lethal Damage for stealth tactics and not ground-slamming or obliterating blind enemies. We know this may come as a disappointment as many Tenno have sworn their life to the power of this Mod however the myriad of unintended uses was proving more powerful than intended. After considering the use of Covert Lethality for Exalted Blade a debate ensued about the use of melee Mods that are specific to certain weapons; again, it was decided that while we intended for certain melee Mods to amplify Exalted Blade it didn't make sense for all melee Mods to apply. For example, currently the buff from Justice Blades works for Exalted Blade even though the mod is an augment for the Dual Cleavers. Next week we intend to limit the Melee mods that work with Exalted Blade strictly to generic mods (ie: Pressure Point, Molten Impact, etc) but not weapon-specific augments. We appreciate that this will remove certain fitting strategies however we feel that those combos were not the intention of the ability and want to avoid making it so that you only want to play Excalibur with one or two specific weapons. We hope that you will agree that this is better for Warframe balance and makes conceptual sense for how you would expect the power to work.

S7ORM Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 (edited) They removed it because it narrowed the choice of weaponry to Skana (/prime/prisma) and dual cleavers (/prisma).Inb4 it didn't narrow down choice. It did.Not using the extra 100% damage and extra 1k burst every so often is like not using Serration on your weapons. Why wouldn't you?Inb4 because you use a weapon you'd use outside of exalted blade.If you're running excalibur with a build for exalted blade, you're not NOT going to be in exalted blade to use your melee weapon.

Berserkerkitten Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 Oooooh! Thanks for the info, guys. I assume life strike no longer proccing off reflection was removed for the same reason? Shucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
