-BELLUM- Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 (edited) NOTE TO THE DEVS: IF THIS TURNS OUT TO BE A BUG I APOLOGIZE FOR THIS POST. IF NOT... PLEASE HEAR US OUT. There has been a severe reduction to Rhino's ROAR power that has rendered it unappealing to even use.... UPDATE- JULY 8TH, PST 11:33pm Seems it was a bug people! It's all good and i stand corrected ^_^ Check it out..... https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/75757-the-hotfix-borked-roar/?p=825004 Recently, i jumped into a quick game of IO defense to level my dread Kunai and noticed even with a fully leveled Continuity mod, the effect was only lasting .....5 seconds. Thinking it could be a bug, i removed the mod only to discover the Roar power functioning at a even shorter time of about....4 seconds..... I repeated these tests...and confirmed the timers. Now, this was to Rhino's answer to the high level/ high defense wave battles, the first release of this power was perfect. Totally suited to the tank like play style. And made him a valued warframe to a squad not only for his ability to survive as an individual player....but to boost combat effectiveness of an entire team! With the newly set time limit, this cant even be an worthwhile risk expending 75 energy to just buy enough time for a few melee swings, or at best a single rifle clip with boosted damage. Please return the roar power to what it first was, there was no need for a change. At the very least compromise for a length of time that sits in the middle of the extremely low (4-5 seconds) and the starting (12-17 seconds).

RahuHordika Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Have you considered the possibility of it being a bug? Y'know because it has happened before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-BELLUM- Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 In my first surge of frustration and slight anger...oh man you better believe that what i felt too my friend....but hey....lets boost this post, and let the Dev's eyes fall on it. I'm sure we can talk with them about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sada_no_Fujin Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Who wants to spend almost 100 energy for 5 seconds (maxed with mods mind you) of negligible damage boost? Thats almost a stomp (which is pretty nice now) or an iron skin and a half (which is meh. better then before but still not suitable for epicness). Waste of energy. i removed a power polarization so i could use that slot for something useful. I was going to change it back with the introduction of roar but thank you DE for making that decision easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-BELLUM- Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 I mentioned that in the first part, and if it is, I'll take full fault for jumping the gun. Just a bit spooked since Rhino's been nerfed before. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sada_no_Fujin Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Well keep raging until they officially post its a bug. Assume ninja nerf untill proven otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-BELLUM- Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 Nerf Ninja must be the stalker on the forums.....LOL Yeah, if it's a bug, i'll totally take the blame for assuming too soon. but had to post it just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broskadamus Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I really hope it is a bug, I just started to enjoy playing Rhino again and I want to keep it that way. Hopefully if its a bug it'll be fixed soon, I'd also like to see the movement leaning fixed soon too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so we'll find a compromise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sada_no_Fujin Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 The only ones who complain a frame is OP are the ones who don't play it. Which is why nerf threads generally should be disregarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theangelbelow88 Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I really hope this is a bug... 5 seconds is nothing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sada_no_Fujin Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Also, what kind of logic is this? "OH NO RHINO IMPROVES THE PERFORMANCE OF THE WHOLE TEAM! HES GOT MORE UTILITY THEN EMBER NERF PL0X. NOW THE SUIT HAS 3 SKILLS WORTH USING! NERF NERF!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-BELLUM- Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 The only ones who complain a frame is OP are the ones who don't play it. Which is why nerf threads generally should be disregarded. Totally agree, honestly in the past there were some warframe abilities i thought were maybe too potent...but i dint go around complaining about it openly. We're all players in the game that stresses co-op, in a "us versus them" setting. Don't gimp your fellow tenno with nerf complaints...cause in the big picture we all suffer for it.

Myt_L Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 i just made my rhino. and .. its gone xD i hope its a bug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aishi Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) It's like one stop forward and two steps back with DE more often than the other way around.Can we get a side of hotfix, hold the "bugs" for once? One change at a time won't hurt. It's slow, but it's progress. Edited July 9, 2013 by Aishi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broskadamus Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I'd be happy to hear from them at the very least as to whether this is a bug and they're aware, or...if its intentional, which i really hope its not. Cast animation included 5 seconds isn't enough to get anything done in this game. This coupled with a new patch leads me to believe it is indeed a bug...but without conformation we can't be sure.

The_Sharp_Demonologist Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Oh man im starting to farm rhino BP's NUUUU POWER TO THE RHINO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sada_no_Fujin Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) We could really use a word on it. Assume nerf unless stated otherwise though. After the the iron skin change DE is guilty until proven innocent. Edited July 9, 2013 by Varo_Sanumai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paroxysmal Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 OH I hope it is a bug too cause, in some way i'll still use it, it's just that with the short timer you really cant do anything worthwhile some people on my team made use of roar when it was on, even with it's shortness and it would barely last the time of their warframe ability Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowGhosting Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I noticed this too. Please fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liavalenth Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) I noticed this as well, but I think this thread is the wrong reaction. If a nerf like this was intentional, or if it is a bug, it should still go in the bug forum. Simply because rather or not it was intentional it is still a bug. Just a question of what kind of bug it is. Edited July 9, 2013 by liavalenth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broskadamus Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Just read the patch notes a few minutes ago and they stated "fixed Rhino's roar lasting only four seconds" so it seems it was a bug after all. I'll need to go try it myself though but it sounds like good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
