Kunai, It Is Not A Stealth Weapon Currently

[Amorphous907]

The kunai is supposed to be a quiet weapon in warframe, but through many tests that I have done, it is not.

Am I the only one that has this issue? I would love to use it along side of my Paris and Glaive, but it doesn't do the trick in stealth missions.

[nikolaos91]

maybe there is a bug

[GraalOhOtonami]

It may not be silent, but it's OP as all hell, far too much fun to be had from throwing knives at Grineer to have their arms fall off or explode in icy glory.

[Un1ted]

No problems stealthing with it here.

 

Just make sure you're not killing in plain sight of other enemies. You have to do it while their backs are turned, or they'll see the body that you just silently killed drop to the ground, and sound the alarm. You have to position yourself correctly.

probs just your side. mines working totally fine. and as to what Un1ted say, dont kill them in plain sight or when they are too close to each other.

To prove a point, I'v shot plenty of enimies in front of eachother with the paris and they dont flinch. They just keep on walking. Using the kunai, as useful as they are in taking down soldiers, And keeping myself out of sight, say on the otherside of a door and  melee unit is walking through, the enemies ALWAYS know where you are even if NO ONE sees them bite the dust.

 

And to be clear im sure the enemy unit didn't see me before dieing being on the other side of a room
