Specters of the Rail: Hotfix 13

[AXCrusnik]

Still no fix for nunchaku holster misplacement:

 

[Peacemuser]

It's nice that you don't require a relic in order to farm traces. It's also nice to see a lower disparity between new and veteran players with void-traces drops. 

However, it seems that it takes longer to farm traces now. It would be nice if further reactant drops can be collected and used to farm more traces in one missions, making endless missions more attractive. It would also be nice if you get more traces for playing higher tiered fissure.

Heck, maybe even bring multiple relics in one missions. This might be hard to implement though.

What about nightmare missions not showing up on the solar map?!

This.

Can we get at least some sort of comment on those? Are they intentially removed, or is this a bug that's waiting it's turn to be fixed?

[Suleyman_1453RD]

Thanks for taking a dump on Kubrows, our demon puppies who dealt 2200+ damage now only deal 1300......................................

[Sonicoblivion]

I tried out the new void fissure changes and... I love it!

So much better.

“Endless” Void Fissure missions are now truly endless with the exception of Defense and Interception.

What is the point of this endless? Nothing has changed as far as I can tell by playing Survival. You don't get the opportunity to earn more Traces or Prime parts after you've collected 10 Reactants. It's exactly the same as it was before the update, just with a different game play twist.

Thanks for the increased Traces cap.

However, now you've stuck the amount of Traces we can earn behind an RNG wall, and on top of that, you've taken away our ability to influence the looting mechanics. This is a straight regression from the previous update. 

There's currently no work and reward system incorporated either, as in stay longer, take more risks, face bigger dangers, and get more. This used to be a big motivator for upgrading your gear as well. You've also completely removed the purpose of farming Relics/Keys for the long term, by for the most part taking the ability to prepare for new Primes away.

With these updates you've basically reduced my daily game play to getting the Focus, Syndicate caps, and Raids. Then I can ignore the game for the next 24 hours, before I do the same again.

I sincerely hope the War Within has some long term game play goals incorporated, because currently I'm not motivated to play the Starmap stuff at all.

no fix for several interaction with Kavat? there are a few animation that is bugged where on the screen we can only see their inner side of their ear instead of the whole Tenno-Kavat interaction...

[theraot]

First people complain that the fissure is pushing people to play Nekros/Hydroid et. al... and now people complain that they can't boost the drops anymore. This is great :v

Now seriously, the traces drops feel low. I would suggest to increase the low end of the range.  The idea of making extra reactant (beyond the required 10) convert to traces would kind of work too... yet it will bring the push for Nekros/Hydroid et. al. once more.

Instead I want to suggest to just allow us to farm traces in the void, so we can go farm there if we want extra.

[SpectreKnight]

Still no fix for the default polearm holster.

Plz. I wanna use Reaper Prime or Orthos without popping a blood vessel.

Changes

• Arctic Eximus Snow Globe blocks radial damage, but will no longer block damage from sources inside the globe. This allows most non targeted powers that damage enemies to work versus Arctic Eximus within a snow globe. 

Fixes

• Fixed meshes getting distorted when Field of View was increased (either deliberately or from effects like Volt Speed or Mesa Peacemaker).

I have been waiting and praying to the void for a long time for this ^  "Give unto the void!"

[Sagna]

Still no comment on

please DE, dont let this go unanswered, dont turn a blindside to it.

[CountachLP400]

why wasn't the Scimitar left-leaning animation fixed?

[ZanderWild]

Still no real fix for the mission summary window getting stuck after missions sometimes and making it so you have to force close the game? Yes I know you supposedly fixed this already but im here to say no its not fixed.

[Puck.Swiftpaw]

Still no patch for Archwing slides, spin attacks, and dodge rolls? I'll be sads if that is working as intended.

[blackheartstar_pc]

So please re add some way to endlessly farm for stuff randomly as we did before this update. Also please do not nerf Nekros Desecrate with the toggle. Rather you buff his Shield of Shadows and make them faster. That is what he needs rather than the nerf you had shown.

A new AXI V3 RELIC will be obtainable in the wild that contains a mix of items from the vaulted Relics that contained Mag Prime, Dakra Prime, and Boar Prime. 

As per Devstream #77, you can expect us to have a drop table up for all Relic locations this week. Please note that right now, the AXI V3 Relic is found in Orokin Derelict Survival reward tables. 

Ehm...ok correct me if I'm wrong. So as Megan said AXI V3 will contain the vaulted items, right?

I found these by my own.

Spoiler

 

I found the relic on Lua defense mission. And when I finished the mission I went directly to the relic thingy and saw these rewards listed:

 

Spoiler

 

Why didn't I see the vaulted items listed?

So the relics that contain the vaulted items were: Lith M1, Meso B1, Neo D1, and Axi V2. And it means we're not gonna get the vaulted items but the Axi V3 is the replacement of those relics that contain items other than the vaulted items? Please enlighten me lol I'm kinda slow at understanding, because English isn't my primary language so it's kinda hard to understand these kinda things.

AXI V3 contains the items that were in the vaulted relics that aren't mean to be vaulted.

Lith M1, Meso B1, Neo D1, and Axi V2 contains Mag Prime, Dakra Prime, and Boar Prime stuff that is being "vaulted". But Lith M1, Meso B1, Neo D1, and Axi V2 did also contain other stuff that is not intended to be "vaulted", yet since Lith M1, Meso B1, Neo D1, and Axi V2 will no longer be obtainable... they need to put that other stuff somewhere... where? AXI V3.

[SP3CT3R7]

Hmmm....well...here I am again, bad news! (I wont spam this time!)

I am not earning Void Traces in a mission. After it is done. So. Sad.

I tried client/host switch, and that isn't so I was stuck at a constant 75 Traces even though I earned 32 Traces (3 missions, about 10-11 Traces each...)

Please fix soon!!!

Hope tomorrow's inevitable hotfix includes thumping Teshin on the head so he stops spacing out and starts recording our Conclave Standing and Daily Mission progress again....

Minor grammar clean up

[MrSargent]

Still no archwing fix? Kinda disappointing :/

[xxfiurionxx]

Anyone know exactly how did hydroid tentacle swarm got "optimized"? Cause after using him for a bit before this last update he seems... crappier :X

Could be bugs since i saw tentacle swarms last more then the ability timer sometimes, having increased cast range sometimes (terrible) and cases that just looked heavy nerfed or with pilfering swarm not working properly like my polymer bundle spot.

If i could farm polymer bundles on lower lvl planets? I could... but just boring and lower xp :/

At the end of the day... #save/fix puddle if the case

[--Q--KimimiN]

Still no change on credit reward at end mission? im concern for new player which will have a lot of difficult times because of credit insufficient (trading, crafting, etc), since right now the only mission that give a decent amount of credit is  sortie and law of retribution.

Is complete neutralizing of Simulor stacking damage intended? I thought by saying AoE you mean ability damage. Which is annoying too btw, arctic eximi are on their way to become another nullifiers. 

[Zylofan]

Love the changes made to void fissures, are they perfect? Maybe not, needs more testing,  but if nothing else these changes are a giant step in the right direction. Thanks DE.

Dear Teno Claus,

I have been extra good this year but only want the following small items:

• Star-chart/quest reset option
• bigger UI scaling for 4k displays
