r0ckwolf Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Excalibur is perfectly balanced as he is right now, so don´t you touch him devs! Super Jump is a great utility tool that is indeed situational, but theres nothing wrong with that. Infact try using Frost snow globe when u re swarmed by infested. It will do nothing! Does that mean it´s an bad abiltiy? No, it´s just a situational abiltiy htat has been used wrong. So leave the best Frame in the Game alone and Focus on making the others better (Volt anyone???!!!!).

r0ckwolf Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 P.S.: If anything the max lvl of Superjump needs a buff, since it doesn´t seem to increase the jump height over lvl 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fsac Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I would just like to chime in and say that Super Jump is among my favorite skills in the game. The mobility options it provides is second to none, especially when combined with Slash Dash. In fact, I don't run any abilities on my Excal but Slash Dash and Super Jump. ...and don't even get me started on the epicness that is Super Jump, full-charge up a Paris shot, then let fly from the heavens.

Khodos Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 from reading these posts, you guys are forgetting, now mods and some powers could become universal. Meaning that in the future there could be a completely new skill set for all of the frames, DE has an untapped Keg of possibilities for what the future will hold for each and every frame, never know there could very well be 10,000 different mods in a couple of years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geisterklinge Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Don't touch my superjump. Period.Excal is imho fine as it is as of now. Only viable suggestion I read some time ago in a thread was to make falling height influence the damage of a jump attack (for all Warframes though). Which would make superjump a bit more "combaty". I like that idea, but I still like Superjump even without it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fsac Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 from reading these posts, you guys are forgetting, now mods and some powers could become universal. If Super Jump became a universal mod... I would undoubtedly have an ear to ear grin for an absolute minimum of 38 minutes. DE, make this happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riptose Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Well, there, as of this point, are no universal mods. So until the time when there is such a thing, i think it is perfect where it is at this time. Maybe even a slight increase in jump height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaumatos Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 (edited) Super jump takes a lot of energy for you? That's funny, it's actually pretty cheap for me. Got me out of some situations, help me get that mod out of reach faster, and it even got me out of a glitchy spot after getting that last Frost Blueprint I farmed for so long. The reason why Excalibur's Super Jump is so underestimated is because people aren't creative enough to turn the fight in your favor with Super Jump. Besides, it is just epic to do a Super Jump + Slash Dash combo, maybe headshotting something. If any if his abilities is useless, it's Radial Blind. Any situation I find myself in that requires me to use it, Radial Javelin is usually a wiser choice. I've never had a situation that "required" Super Jump. There have been plenty where it would have been nice to have, but player skill is able to be substituted. If you're bad at wall running, or impatient enough to want an extra few meters in your first attempt, Super Jump can help you there. As for headshotting with Slash Dash, you can do that with a normal jump, or by starting your attack higher than the intended target. Super Jump is not required for anything in Warframe.

Thaumatos Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Super Jump + Slash Dash. It already covers almost any gap in the game you can think of. Within what 2 seconds? Slide-jump + Slash Dash already covers any conceivable distance needed. Super Jump may put you farther, but it doesn't matter since there isn't anything any farther.

OoKeNnEtHoO Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Hey try sprint + super jump + crouch then slash dash. Beat that distance with wall-running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Jump is used to navigate obstacles and maneuver around faster than you could using wallrunning, which is does perfectly well, having saved my allies, the cryopod and the hostage on many occasions. If there is anything that needs to be thought about with SJ, it's the scaling. It starts off pretty much useless but at later levels does it's job perfectly well. Because of that it's either max rank or bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASH_PRIME Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 As You can see...the majority of Ex and Prime Ex users LIKE his super jump... and we certainly DONT want to see it removed for a wimpy 4ss shieldEx is an ATTACK frame if you couldnt work that outhowever...how about a super jump in the AIRand/or a Super Jump should SUPER CHARGE any ground attack melee move...

X3Evanescence Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I actually like Excalibur the way he is. He is perfect the way he is now. In fact, Super Jump is more useful than Radial Javelin. If you want a tank, play Rhino or Frost. Cal is already great, Super Jump greatly boosts his mobility =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marharth Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Super jump is amazing. Makes Excalibur incredibly mobile. Can jump over large gates and walls for short cuts, or jump up onto places nearly instantly without needing to go up or around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerelHawdos Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Maybe the jump should knock down enemies he lands on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmSNAKE Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Slide-jump + Slash Dash already covers any conceivable distance needed. Super Jump may put you farther, but it doesn't matter since there isn't anything any farther. No it doesn't. You can't clear massive crates, or obstacles as quick. In some cases you can't at all if there is no nearby wall. Super Jump eliminates ANYTHING that gets in your way. No need to walk around, wall run or look for an elevator even. Just press 3 and dash if you need a lot of distance. It's quicker and easier than any other approach, for 10 extra energy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatpig84 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 however...how about a super jump in the AIR and/or a Super Jump should SUPER CHARGE any ground attack melee move... This. Super jump in the air will have Excal laughing at mere mortals below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OoKeNnEtHoO Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 (edited) Hold shift, then press 3, release shift and hold ctrl, and press 1. You can jump across the Xini map with 1 of these with maxed Continuity and Focus. Edited June 11, 2013 by OoKeNnEtHoO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Good ideas. But what about my suggestion. What about change not the abilities of excalibur to make more abilities to him as much for example rino. He has 5 Abilities. The players can make than for her own taste a better killing machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
