NaniteCircuit Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) Let's just start off with the point: I love the Glaive. I love the way it feels in close combat, and the way that it handles in general, but there is one thing that sorta kills it for me: The bouncing off enemies part. Sure, It's fine feeling when it just does a bit of damage, but when it kills an enemy and bounces, that just breaks it for me. So, from a purely gameplay standpoint (Because I have no idea how hard this would be to code), a fairly easy solution that can make people who hate this (like myself) happy, and keep the people who like the feeling of ricocheting their Glaive off of the fresh corpse of a MOA directly into the face of the Crewman standing next to it in the same throw, I suggest a mod.This mod would add the passive effect of passing through the recently deceased, sort of like it did in darkSector, or like the Glaive acts on the way back.Seeing as this was sort of hard to phrase for me, and I have no idea if I was clear, here's a diagram:T-TennoE-Enemy X-Glaive Contact Point (For the sake of demonstration, enemies die from one throw) Various lines- Glaive PathWithout mod: T -----XE E | | With mod: T-----XE------XEThank you.

Gryphticon Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 So a puncture mod for glaive? Seems legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremaihtheman Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 That's a great idea! Also it would work for Krestel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremaihtheman Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 I like you chart you used for an example it helps understand what you said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthetic_Ghost Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) If I can add something to this it would be that the glaive also can steer a little in a straight path so it can hit other enemies instead of just passing by slightly. I like the idea and it being a mod is a solution for people that does not like the idea.

FateZero Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 They have a mod in the works already, it was planned back in update 8.3.http://www.reddit.com/r/Warframe/comments/1hoi25/unreleased_83_stuff/Glaive Power Throw (for glaive): Puncture depth (1, 2, ...)It may already be implemented into the game since the other 3 mods listed are in the game since update 9.

Snikendrax Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 I've been using the glaive for a few days, and realised that having it bounce from an enemy that a teammate just killed was usually 'undesirable'. I figure that having it pass through enemies that are already dead would be much better. Also, rather than puncture surviving enemies all the time, perhaps puncturing on critical hits only? Definitely puncturing on killing hits gets a vote from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ariarch Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Wish I could find a Glaive alert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaniteCircuit Posted July 25, 2013 Author Share Posted July 25, 2013 Wish I could find a Glaive alert. It will happen eventually, although an alert isn't necessary. I was lucky enough to get my blueprint from a 3 star login reward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAR1MAU Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 If I can add something to this it would be that the glaive also can steer a little OMG lust like Dark sector :D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaniteCircuit Posted August 8, 2013 Author Share Posted August 8, 2013 Indeed, but that would make it a bit over powered. All I'm asking for is the puncture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
