What's preventing Stalker to have picked up a tenno version of the Orokin "Dread" Prime? Does is say that Stalkers weapons are not based on Orokin design? Because if they do, this is the first I hear of it. And yeah love bows. How about the bows get different arrows? Varying speed, impact, travel distance, zoom, reloadspeed, inate boons - to make me want to swap between two bows because they are really.different. Sidenote: do stances exist for bows?

Also: I use the "mainstream" weapons, because they appeal to me. I never liked the Simulor, or Tonkor for that matter, but I use my Tigris Prime all the time. Not because it's really good, but because I like how it feels. At least bows all differ from one another, unlike some assault rifles. Did you read what i said? "If you use the mainstream S#&$ JUST BECAUSE ITS GOOD" ive never said anything about using it if you like or not The veteran thingy wasnt from this post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varying speed, impact, travel distance, zoom, reloadspeed, inate boons - to make me want to swap between two bows because they are really.different. Sidenote: do stances exist for bows? The Stalkers weapons are almost definitely based on Orokin design as he was a Low Guardian, but he seems to have customized them to better perform the tasks he needs them to (that is, killing Tenno) as can be seen by the description of the Despair ("Used by the Stalker, Despair throwing blades have a mono-filament edge, sharp enough to penetrate a Warframe"). Therefore, I would say a Prime set of Stalker weapons is possible in the lore, but very unlikely as he likely modified them himself. As for different mechanics for arrows and bows, I would be hesitant to give different arrows different abilities because of the whole "cosmetics with stats" thing that DE stopped doing with arcane helmets. Mods to do that would probably be a better course of action. And no, there are no stances for bows. They would have a mod slot for them if they existed.

Keep in mind that Stalker uses a warframe and weapon types favored by Tenno so he must have been among the other Tenno at some point before he went rouge. Well, yeah, going edgelord darkside implies your color tones are edgy blacks and reds to some extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phernix Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I could see a primed bow shipping with Banshee prime access. As long as it's not Cernos. 3 versions of ONE bow is enough DE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So as convoluted as it may sound, we're more likely to see those recreations of orokin weapons which Stalker himself modified, then the primes. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if his weapons weren't made by him, then why wouldn't they be sold on the market or elsewhere? This logic applies to pretty much any weapon with a prime version of it, with two exceptions being the Reaper Prime and Dakra Prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfDarkShadow Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) To be completely fair, we have been sprinkled with them this past year alone. Most recently the more unique Mutalist Cernos, prior to that the Daikyu, then the Raknos Cernos. Of course that I'm not saying we shouldn't get more, quite the contrary. But I think just going "we need more bows" is only part of the conversation. I think going a step further and thinking what some possible solutions are is the way to go. But anyway, from a statistical/mechanical perspective, what can we [they] do to make a bow that can stand on its own? We have two Critical bows; One Syndicate bow (fastest fire rate/pullback time); One long bow (with an auto-pullback mechanic); And lastly one placement-based DoT bow. There is a few more avenues we can venture into, such as: Pure or nearly-pure status Conditional (i.e. Dual Toxocyst, Lesion) Splash damage (i.e. Opticore) Other small mechanics 1. Status could be interesting with no IPS or something. Even if it has to be a beam of light to make sense, then so be it haha. 1a. Or like a low crit / 100% status chance cold bow that instantly freezes the first enemy it makes contact with would be kind of neat. 2. Conditional should be self-explainatory, but now the question is what kind of benefit / punishment should it get if you fulfill a certain requirement(s) or conversely fail to fulfill it. 3. Splash damage based honestly could be a mix of the Opticore and Daikyu into one bow. Just of course on a smaller scale lol. 3a. Use the freeze bow idea from 1a. and if the bow impacts the ground first, does a slow effect (think Frost's first ability), with a reduced chance of them to freeze (cut it down to 50% or something, I don't know haha). 4. Some examples of small mechanics are: similar to looking like Zephyr's Tailwind, smaller enemies and items close by get pulled along toward the direction the bow is going (think Mag's Pull). 4a. Another would be like a "Life Strike" / Vampire-esque sort of bow where for example it has a noticeable long pullback time but at full charge you can regain a % of hp that you've done to the enemy you hit the bow with. Or if completely deplete an enemy with full shields to none (and/or instantly kill them) you can regain half of the enemy's full shield value to restore yours. Or it that's not interesting enough, maybe instead of just the ol' straight up healing you instantly, (this applies also to number 2.) you get two or so seconds of health regeneration, and/or the timer cooldown before shields start restoring again gets cut in half. I don't know really, just shooting stuff off the top of my head lol. But REGARDLESS of all that, definitely would love to see more bows in the future! While they're at it, Glaives as well since the Cerata and Glaive Prime are my favourite melee weapons lol~ Edited November 1, 2016 by HalfDarkShadow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ailissa Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 That bow? Never. 2 years old so it's probably not going to be seen in game. To be honest bows are rarely used, they don't need to add more. There is a massive collection of MR fodder weapons that get no use outside of that MR. I really want them to calm down with the weapons now and release one good one every now and then instead of the huge collection of trash ones we have now.

arch111 Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 What about passive explosive arrows? Like a Penta for bows. You fire three arrows in the grund, wait for the moas to stand ontop, click button. Boom boom boom. You fire three bows into a horde of infested, get to safety, click boom boom.boom.

GlaciesCoolman Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I love the bows, they're just fancy railguns, so more of them is always appreciated. If and when they make a new bow I hope it's a Corpus bow instead of Tenno. Something like this modern compound bow but with energy and the signature Corpus geometry.

I have been driven nuts by the design, and this is the Perfect idea of a primary weapon that i had in my mind. As someone who primarily uses bows and has Dread as the most used weapon, I need THIS, so bored of the designs of the other Bows.

45neo Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 5 hours ago, flamingblueice said: But all the bows have such boring designs! They dont feel KILLER, as they should. I have been waiting for a reskin for bows and we got the Dyrad one, which sucks if used on any other frame except oberon. And this is one of the concepts that DE pitched i think. I read it on the Warframe international page and couldn't keep myself contained. Yes it is old, but does anyone have any idea what this was or is there any way to promote this design, so that it comes in light and the devs notice it? We sorely need another bow and one that does not fire farts, or take ages to charge and shoot. I wish we get one with the ASH deluxe bundle... And since we are stealthy space ninjas, we are sorely under equipped to fit the job description. ( proper ninja fashioned way ) Bows are not killer... It's the arrows that do the killing.
