holyicon Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 (edited) ATT: The Plume of Bourbon Vapor formerly known as Steve Sinclair (or Scott or Pablo whoever's in-charge of this aspect of the game). I'm kinda getting (no, very, getting VERY) sick of forgetting to swap between, Primary Focuses depending on what Warframe and Build I'm using at the time and I do so far too frequently that the task is tedious when I do remember. I need some help. Well, we all need some help... and fast! We need a buddy! Say "Hello" to Focus Buddy! To kick off these informal negotiations: I propose adding Focus Buddy as an interactive, drop-down "combo-box" style selector on the Warframe Arsenal Upgrade screen. Adding Focus Buddy to provide one different Focus Selection for each A, B and C build, for each Warframe that the player owns, would be the most optimal solution -- you may add it when the "New Focus Updates" that you've been threatening us with ships. This 'may' be negotiated down to one selection per Warframe pending a valid counter-proposal from DE and given your willingness for ample and realistic compromise showing that you both value and respect our time and sanity. (CLICK FOR A BETTER VIEW, Go-Go New Forums Distortion!)For more info on "Focus Buddy", read my other post on New Minimap Icons. Please Note: This does not mean getting rid of the "Primary Focus" set in the Transference Room. By default, each Build's Focus Buddy will be set to "Use Primary". If you change your "Primary Focus" from, for example, "Naramon" to "Zenurik", any Build set to "Use Primary" will switch accordingly. Possible Progression Ideas: Multiple Tree Presets selectable via Focus Buddy. Tree Preset Slots unlockable via Platinum and/or Mastery Rank Advancement. Custom Tree Preset Names. In closing, may all your dreams be good dreams. Down with Draco. And... As always, have fun out there, be kind to each other, but equally mean to those that oppose the Tenno! -holyicon Edited May 30, 2016 by holyicon Hurray For Focus Buddy!

Feuershark Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Highly needed considering that different frames benefit more from different focus tree. +1.

holyicon Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 Added UI concept image. Thus fully justifying this as a player Concept and not just UI Feedback :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maugre Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I don't know if I'd rather have it per warframe, or per loadout slot. Either way would be nice, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yzjdriel Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Yup. Needs to happen. Even turning off certain perks should be doable from the Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way would be nice, though. You always start the negotiation process asking for more than you need, that way you have something you can give up as "compromise". However; there are a lot of frames where you get competing build concepts emphasising the use of Toggled vs. their non-Toggled powers. As such, certain focuses are more valid for one build and that "use case" where another isn't. For Example:Not that I especially care for the build myself but there's a click of players fond of using Excalibur for spamming Radial Javelin on a Certain Map that will go unnamed, and the Naramon Focus I use with my Exalted Blade build wouldn't do much good there; the Zenurik Focus or another would. So having a Dedicated Arsenal Loadout with a Focus Buddy set to that Preset would be very much advantageous in avoiding those "oh right, I forgot to talk to my pod teen" moments. Since you're likely to either have one of your A B or C loadouts configured to a build designed for "That Map" as well as another for using Exalted Blade, and perhaps the 3rd for Taco Tuesday, with an entirely different Focus needed. And that's just ONE reason why ONE frame might want more than one Focus over multiple builds... Edited May 9, 2016 by holyicon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warpfactor Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 I can see this actually being helpful for those that use more than one focus for more than one build on the same Warframe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
