Djego27 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 (edited) I just want to clarify by saying that my main complaint with Ember isn't the damage, but the FX of her ult. IT'S BLINDING!! Dial it back, seriously. Every match with an Ember is just terrible and the asshats always choose the most obnoxious, bright colours because they know it's annoying and makes aiming and general gameplay impossible for anyone else in the match with them. But to talk about damage... I just finished a round with two embers. Both leading in kills, neither ever firing a shot. I'd love to say I got a whole bunch, but unfortunately I was unable to see due to the blinding effects of their ults CONSTANTLY going off. Makes someone want to start network manipulation in order to drop these players, seriously. Well the FX of WoF could use some turning down. If you actually play Ember it is even worse, since not only WoF but also accelerant more or less blinds you for a few seconds if you don't move away from the cast spot and dark energy colors(while the perfect choice on Frost and many other frames) actually don't work out so well on a fully weapon damage focused frame like Ember, since accelerant with a dark color fails to highlight targets and give you visual feedback if they are affected by it or not. Then again this should be little to no issue for people just playing the frame for WoF. Edited November 15, 2015 by Djego27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakatchi Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Its not about the damage, but its about the damage. Turn off color correction and bloom, and there you go. I thought I saw a ember nerf complaint in there somewhere, but I probably imagined it. Since no one possibly could want to nerf ember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitsu Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 (edited) Yeah, warframe and visuals are always wonky. Anyone remember pure white, max bloom prisma excaibur? You couldn't even see the warframe under all that blinding light...And speaking of power of wof. It scales horribly for anything past T2 void missions. Even at 200% power it takes her a while to kill ancients, heavy gunners and bombards unless she uses accelerant. And her wof can only target 1-2 targets at a time. It's a bit slow at killing a large populated room ironicly, faster with only a few enemies around. Edited November 15, 2015 by kitsu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not everyone is built equal. Not every warframe is equal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bibliothekar Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 a) You can set the visuals to any preference you like ( "Settings > Visuals") That's not entirely true. As others have stated, you only have the choice between ALL THE BLOOM and no bloom at all. Maybe I'd be fine with a bit of bloom, but that's no option ... Same with a few other settings, where a graded selection would make perfectly sense, but DE went for the "all or nothing" route instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-dicht.Amducias- Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Just give it back the old visuals, they looked cool and werent very superficial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightCole Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Embers ultimate is the only thing that keeps her in my Liset. I hate squishies in this game because they are always being killed off in like 2 hits....ballistas, shotguns, laser rifles, snipers, cannons, ramparts....its like you cant even move with a squishy without being killed in 2 shots....jumping around, avoiding, none of it matters. Just run ember through Ludi on Ceres, I made the fking mistake of casting my #4, I was dead before the animation finished, some stupid &#! bullS#&$ ballista sniped down in 2 shots, just as I jumped away, pow, dead... Happened again later in that mission, I come around a corner, pow, I jump and try to evade, pow, dead..... This game and its random, bullS#&$ One hit kill mobs and mechanics need to go the hell away.... I dont dare take out anyone besides Rhino and Oberon because anyone weaker gets smacked before there is even a chance to move. Took Vauban into Vedic, he died 4x before the mission ended...Couldnt keep him alive at all..everything was 2 shotting him. Trinity, she sometimes survives better, but even then, make the mistake of walking around the corner into a Rampart, your dead before you can turn around.... Even Rhino and Oberon get 3-4 shot sometimes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaeseSchnitte Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) I play both Ember and Nova with venom green energy. I'd usually say I do that because it looks cool, but now I'd say that I use that color to annoy you. Yes you, you who are reading this. I will find you, and I will be in every team you play with and I will stick to you and always use my super bright and flashy powers just for you. Because I want to annoy you.

CocoBunnies Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Efficiency on several channel abilities were lost for this, please don't take away the only good thing we got out of the change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matrixryu Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 The issue here isn't just with ember. I bought the flaming wing addon for my frames, but in dark areas the wings became blindingly bright to the point where I could no longer look at my warframe. I constantly had to avert my eyes. Every single energy effect in the game becomes blindly bright in dark levels. I ended up going through my graphical settings and turning off bloom or something to avoid damaging my eyes.

Machayna Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I agree this needs to be toned down. Doing ODS or ODD between her WoF particle effects and the infested exploding all over the place I can barely see what's going on half the time. I've also tried changing her colors to darker shades but those particles still get in the way like NKDG was saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_of_Lords Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Ember and Saryn are mostly the reason why I don't play on max graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timerwin63 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Doesn't this belong in art and animation, not frame feedback? Seems to me like that's what you're complaining about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
