[English] Inconsistencies with Focus 2.0 Perk Descriptions

[TGDM]

Hi @[DE]Caio! I've got a big ol' list for you today :V

I've put together a little calculator for Focus 2.0 just as I did for 1.1 and part of that includes documenting every single description as well. I noticed many inconsistencies and figured I should put together a feedback post. You can view the calculator and logged descriptions here as well:

I don't have much freedom with formatting on these forums so sorry in advance if it's not the easiest to read / work with!

Suggested :: Void Blast has a x% chance of confusing applying Confusion to enemies for y seconds, causing them to be unable to distinguish friend from foe.
Might be fine to remove the entirety of what comes after the comma as well.

 

 

Sidenote: It probably doesn't matter if you go with operator or Operator, warframe or Warframe, but it would be good to have some consistency in use. I think this was everything, but if I missed anything I'll be sure to post an update later.

Why do you want a full names of physical values assigned by ISO ?!

Just hoping to get some consistency in the way the mechanics are described. Even the way the way the Energy drain is described is a bit inconsistent between trees. Uniformity can help reduce the number of ambiguous or vague descriptions.

Love the ideas here! I will see about these changes. Thank you very much! @TGDM

[ENGINEEEEER]

Good stuff @TGDM
