(PSN)Akuma_Asura_ Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Let's be honest chroma passive isn't really a passive . But if you could give him a genuine one what would it be ? I can't really think of one but try to keep it in theme of what/who he is & at the same time benefitting chromas kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceheart125 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Either innate provoked, so he deals more damage when downed, so dragon rage sorta thing, or like 10% extra armor when sprinting or bullet gliding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemmo67 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 (edited) better air time controll cuz u know, dragons fly c.c (longer glide and can bullet jump twice without having to land) before u say zephyr has this, zephyr is outdated and in need of 200% rework Edited February 27, 2017 by Hemmo67 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jinxeverything Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 1) Elemental damage is increased by 20% for him and increases by 5% when more allies are around him! 2) Have the ability to absorb the element dealt to him and turn it into his energy (he deals the damage element he absorbs)! 3) Enemies dying by his powers will release a AoE healing wave that restore 5% of health of anything (not enemies) within the AoE!

Sajochi Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 1. Mini rage passive or 2. Elemental bullet jump/glide Chroma needs more than a passive change though. He needs some work on his 1 and 4 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewarette Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Immunity to Status effects on himself + gets the element of the status. Chroma on fire ? Switch to fire for the duration of the status. :D Along with a flat +% status chance/duration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newnight Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 A built in rage cause he is a dragon. Passive to make enemies more susceptible to his element and its procs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
--O--Sanetri Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Gets 10% damage boost of the equipped element on all weapons. Is separate from elemental combos. (I.E. player has corrosive and ice equipped on a weapon. Chroma has fire equipped giving the weapon corrosive, ice and fire instead of corrosive and blast. Or chroma has toxin equipped giving him corrosive, ice and toxin) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1tsyB1tsyN1nj4 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 How is his passive not a passive? It's not like you can or ever will be able to switch elements in mission ((cause that'd be OP)) His passive is good because it gives him 3 unique cool elements and changing abilities based on them ((Aside from Toxin, maybe if weapon swap speed wasn't an issue in the game Chroma's toxic EW wouldn't feel like such a bandaid)) And what's with this recent hate for Spectral Scream from everyone? Can someone explain that to me? It makes you immune to staggers and knockdowns, and with the augment you shoot AoE elemental fireballs. Sure it cuts your speed, but so does Assimilate, the augment that ruined Nyx. With a fully running Vex Armor and Elemental Ward there is no issue anyway.

(XBOX)Grimsley Clause Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 (edited) The only true thing you could do here is have him take reduced (Not nullified, but significant) elemental damage from whatever type of element he currently is. Other than that, his passive works by itself, different color, different damage type. Not to mention elemental ward gives him a special buff based on his type.

Space0ddity Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Whatever he equips as his elemental stat breathes out a cone of fire from your primary whenever you fire. Ranged weapons get a fireball (bows snipers), close range weapons get a spreading fireball (shotguns), mediums get like a copious flamethrower spraynpray (assault rifles and machines guns), launchers just get 100% more explosion. balance stats whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaotyke Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Enemies killed in 15m of him drop the double amount of credits. I know Effigy does that, but it should be Chroma's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXx_mtv_xXx Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 It's obvious: let him switch elements on demand in the field. It would make him a lot more fun to play. Right now nobody really uses anything except Ice Chroma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every frame's passive is centered around the frame; Chroma is centered around his "passive". His ability to change elemental output has been a feature solely meant for his abilities and how he plays since the beginning. When giving every frame a passive, DE completely brushed off Chroma and excused a frame exclusive feature as a passive (yes, Equinox has the same, but her's only matters at the very beginning of a mission).

SenorClipClop Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 2 hours ago, LazerSkink said: When giving every frame a passive, DE completely brushed off Chroma False. At the time of Chroma's release, his element-changing passive was revolutionary in Warframe. No other frame to date (or since, really) has had the ability to swap to different elements and reconfigure what his powers do. I think the trouble players are having with Chroma's passive is that it only gives player agency outside of the mission. It can only really take effect in the boring time between missions and a player's direct actions in-mission don't affect his passive (although affecting his passive outside of missions should probably affect how players use Chroma in missions). That, and most passives (especially some of the flashier ones released in U18) are conditionals ("if this/ then this"), and Chroma's sort of isn't. Some players have this expectation on what a passive ability should and shouldn't be, and Chroma's passive isn't meeting that expectation. Personally, I think it's fine. Not all passives are created equal, and that's okay. The important thing is that a frame works holistically as a unit, and I believe Chroma does it pretty well. I don't play much Chroma (though that may change now that I have access to his augments), but I really like being able to bring those different elements into different missions and allow Chroma to do a host of different things. And if we were to give him a "real passive", how would we still have this one? Would he have two? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
