(XBOX)EternalDrk Mako Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 (edited) Glass Frame [Discussion] I know like every frame we get a mix of love/hate in the community personally i like the design , but it is the potential of this frame i wanted to discuss i see it having the possibility of bringing a great artistic expression to the game, while also maybe an interesting take on defense types ------------------------------------ Kit Basics we know the frames power kit revolves around glass, specifically molten glass , per Rebbecca at tennocon the glass she makes is a lot more ..resilient than our current perception of glass , so its strong and resilient there is info forging hammers talks on sharp point things, reflection she also comes with a weapon and armor set on her release ------------------------------------ my personal thoughts Spoiler Currently within warframe we have a good variety of offensive/support /healers/tanks what we dont have is a many full defensive type frames yes we have cc, and armor types and tanks, but thats not specifically "defensive" as i mean, thats crowd control and dosnt prevent enemies outside the AOE zone from attacking for example frost snow globe can create barrier sphere that can shield defensive zones/targets , volts shield can create a small barrier also, but its utility is in damage amplification also and its limited in time atlas also can create a small barrier, but in truth its limited more so in the defensive tactic, more blocking a hall/doorway zone then a coverage defensive area ... so my thought is if this frames kit brought in another avenue of defense barrier like frosts in a way , it could allow for more variety in defensive type play , even synergy with frost and other frames in hand blown glass your given creativity and the ability to mold shape the glass , so maybe unlike frost with a insta barrier she could possible blow, or build up a barrier of glass and leave the style design up to tenno creativity as blown glass can be very artistic and provide not just beauty in this case but reliable defense -also glass house jokes would be very easy to make- so whats your thoughts on her possibilities tenno? ----------------------------------- Frames Art concept art: Spoiler Current Design: Spoiler Examples of blown glass Spoiler Edited August 8, 2017 by (XB1)EternalDrk Mako Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sziklamester Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I like the design but I have one part of her what is a bit surprising me. The codpiece on her.

I thought the same because when I checked the drawing then something reminds me they used the rhinos underpart. It was a bingo because that model clearly similar so I could call miss rhino? Btw that is not a silly idea because rhino is tanky and strong while the glass frame is "weak" and fragile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they are but just like how we have nyx "female" excall so it is not an alien thing from DE to reuse used parts. Zanuka 2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(XBOX)ThermalStone Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Your idea of blown glass shields or barriers would be very pretty, but we really don't need another static defense or area of control frame. Think how many recent new frames and reworks have a best ability or ultimate that locks the control or even the warframe down in one spot. That niche is already pretty crowded. If Glass frame isn't extremely powerful, players will just level her and then go back to Frost or Limbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mintaro Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I feel like she forges her abilities in way like she throws molten glass and molds it to suit the situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimfacsaj Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I don't know how the abilities could work but design wise she is nice. Wish her abilities would be more likely cc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsiWarp Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Her theme seems kinda random but maybe it's quest-related. If there is room for player creativity like sculpting glass walls and stuff or just amazing powers, I could overlook her eccentric visual design.
