New mod for sniper\bow weapon idea

[Kagarrash]

How about smth like 50-60-70-80-90-100% projectile damage punch through null shield for sniper\bow only ? It will make that weapon type pretty good by the price of overall damage (balance!) and will provide a variety of weapon choise/

[Jaypalm]

Allow me to reiterate in a bit more grammatically correct manner: A sniper/bow mod that allows a percentage of the weapon's damage to penetrate Nullifier shields. This doesn't necessarily mean having to break the shield. Essentially, it gives the shot punch through exclusively against Null shields.

If I'm understanding you correctly, it would be a mod to be considered to bring into high level Void and Corpus missions.

ty for help, english isn't my native language) 
yep, you fully understand my idea. More than that, "pucnh through _without_ breaking the shield" - sounds cool

feels like a band-aid mod. Just let punch-through mods penetrate shield and damage is reduced depending on how much punch through you have. That way shred will only allow little damage to pass through whereas metal auger would allow more. For pistols there is only seeker as far as I know.

Feels like a bandaid mod to me as well. Slow RoF weapons like snipers and bows are already needlessly heavily penalized on Nully bubbles, this should be a feature of them baseline IMO.

That sounds awesome

This is the best idea for solving the Nullifier problem I've ever heard. It gives ranged players a way to handle Nullifiers effectively without "forcing" them to use high fire-rate weapons, keeps with the additive nature of Warframe's design, and it can't be used to exploit the game and make Nullifiers trivial (you need to have good aim and can only fire so often).

As with most utility mods, we'll probably need Damage 3.0's removal of "mandatory" damage mods to see this get played much, but I really love this idea.

I will never support shooting through the Nullifier bubble. There's a reason we have multiple different weapon types to choose from. If you decide to take a low fire rate primary and a low fire rate secondary then that's your own fault.

It reminds me of L4D2 when kids would take a shotgun and a melee weapon and then get mad that they couldn't snipe special infected from far away. Plan your loadout better.
