Plains of Eidolon: Hotfix 22.8.3

We’re back with another Quality of Life Hotfix for 2018!

As stated in Hotfix 22.8.2, we’re working our way towards refining content such as Khora, Damage 2.5, and more. You can expect news about TennoGen Round 11 and more this Friday on Devstream #104!

Changes:

  • You can now replay the Apostasy Prologue quest in your Codex! (Not that my body is ready for those feels AGAIN)
  • You can now properly waypoint dropped weapon parts/Blueprints.
  • More than doubled the size of the Cetus Wisp pickup radius. This will allow you to obtain the Cetus Wisp from further away instead of needing to be right on top of it.
  • Reduced Vay Hek's zap Magnetic Status to not drain Energy completely.
  • Zaw strike Plague Kripath now uses the default Rapier holster position when used with a one handed Zaw Grip.
  • Itzal Penumbra now turns off sprint toggle so you don't immediately cancel out of the cloak when using it.
  • Plains of Eidolon Sorties are now a string of 3 encounters that must be completed in order to finish the mission.  
  • Items claimed while in the foundry's "In Progress" tab will now stay in the tab until the tab is changed so you can choose to build it again right after.
  • Made improvements towards the dynamic sky in the Plains to reduce sun lens flare popping.
  • Improvements towards enemy navigation throughout the Corpus Ice Planet Defense tileset.
  • Replaced the Jupiter-Saturn Junction requirement of ‘defeat the Raptor on Europa’ with ‘complete Baal on Europa’. This is due to the Raptor’s boss fight getting increasingly difficult after his re-work, which created frustration for newer players attempting to unlock the Junction. 
  • Tweaked the brightness/visibility of Frost’s Snow Globe in the Plains at night.
  • When browsing Warframes/weapons to equip, you will now see the equipped Skin displayed on the Warframe/weapon icon instead of the default icon. 
  • Optimized away about 250KB of code spread throughout the whole game (over 1% savings!)
     

Objective Text Changes:

  • Changed Vault timer UI text in Spy missions to flash red instead of grey and added /!\ warning icon like in Interception missions.
  • Tweaked Plains Bounty objective text to make hierarchy and relatedness clearer by enlarging, bolding, and aligning with other objective text on the screen.


Boss Reward Location Changes:

  • In an effort to balance the acquisition of Warframes, we’ve shifted some boss drop locations:
    • Excalibur from Pluto to Mars - meaning Lieutenant Lech Kril now possess Excalibur parts
    • Frost from Mars to Ceres - meaning Lieutenant Lech Kril/Captain Vor now possess Frost parts
    • Trinity from Ceres to Pluto - meaning Ambulas now possess Trinity parts
       

Fixes:

  • Fixes towards squads getting separated when enroute to the Plains. This resulted in some players successfully loading into the Plains and some remaining stuck in the hallway perpetually loading.
  • Fixed not switching Cetus instances when accepting an invitation from another player in a different instance.
  • Fixed being left behind in Cetus if you joined a Host the moment they ran into the hallway and saw the loading spinner icon.
  • Fixed an issue where players who joined a session after the host returned to Cetus from the Plains could receive different rewards than the Host if they subsequently did Bounties together.
  • Fixed Konzu Bounty board not auto-refreshing a minute after current batch expires.
  • Fixed Bounties not consistently being marked as "completed" on Bounty board after finishing them.
  • Fixed Gara's Splinter Storm not dealing damage while invisible (Shade, Huras, Octavia etc).
  • Fixed Blade Storm making Ash unarmed when it ends if he activates it while holding a Scanner.
  • Fixed Ash’s Blade Storm not removing the temporary melee weapon given to Ash if the only weapon he has is a Speargun (Javlok, Scourge, etc) and he's currently thrown the Speargun out when activating Blade Storm. 
  • Fixed being able to reach inaccessible areas (and becoming trapped) in the Jordas Verdict stage 2 tileset. 
  • Fixed Shred decreasing Vauban's armour instead of the enemies'.
  • Fixed the Telos Boltace Stormpath ability not working with the Maruta Tonfa Skin equipped. 
  • Fixed Eidolon Vomvalyst Lure tether not appearing on Clients.
  • Fixed Equinox Pacify & Provoke radial FX not being cleaned up on deactivation when on low particle system quality.
  • Fixed Chroma’s Effigy Wing pelt using the default Skin when equipped with the Chroma Vojnik Skin. 
  • Fixed some Decorations not being removed from the Vignette area when switching Vignettes.
  • Fixed Tactical Reload Mod not working on the Quartakk as a Client.
  • Fixed Cetus Wisps being updated while the game was paused -- this could lead to them escaping while you answered the phone.
  • Fixed Mirage Prime’s Hall of Mirror clones using some of the default Mirage texture on their bodies. 
  • Fixed the Mandachord Reload button not reloading the song and preventing any audio from the notes.
  • Fixed the Host being forced to freeze when playing the ‘burrowing Ascaris’ moment, while the Client actually playing the tutorial is not, resulting in the player being frozen in midair. 
  • Fixed the Cetus gate during a Sortie in the Plains not being blocked for Clients (who could simply return to Cetus for free victory).
  • Fixed Infested Crawlers standing upright when being stunned. This occurs when they are being affected by Elemental damage (fire/electricity) or knocked on their backs.
  • Fixed Client not seeing certain Decorations when boarding another Orbiter.
  • Fixed Client seeing incorrect Orbiter Energy color when boarding another Orbiter.
  • Fixed Rhino’s Roar buff VFX not appearing on the helmets of Client players when viewed by Client players. The host sees the VFX on all parts for all players.
  • Fixed not being able to Melee again upon throwing the Sigma & Octanis shield while using Exalted Blade on Excalibur, until you deactivate and reactivate the power. 
  • Fixed the Sigma & Octantis not having any Elemental FX or Energy trails.
  • Fixed Nezha not throwing his Blazing Chakram off his back when the Nezha Devine or Yaksha Skin is equipped.
  • Fixed the Companion HUD bleedout timer pausing after using Transference.
  • Fixed items placed in the Vignette and then moved outside the Vignette getting removed upon changing the Vignette.
  • Fixed some enemy navigation issues in Uranus Defense tilesets. 
  • Fixed some enemy navigation and cover issues in the Grineer Shipyard Interception tilesets. 
  • Fixed the Defense cryopod target popping in and out of the cryopod when standing on top of it. 
  • Fixed not being able to rotate small Orbiter Decorations correctly.
  • Fixed energy trail FX on Palatine hammer Skin being positioned wrong when equipped on several weapons.
  • Fixed intermediate area markers displaying as an area marker instead of an icon when near the objective/extraction.
  • Fixed waypoint markers remaining visible in Cetus after that player has left.
  • Fixes towards Warframe abilities used by any NPCs sometimes not functioning properly.
  • Fixed Mesa's Regulators not receiving pistol upgrades for missions where you start in Archwing (Uranus).

  • Fixed remote players hearing 3 shot sounds instead of 2 per Mesa Peacemaker fire.
  • Fixed Hive sometimes not becoming vulnerable after destroying nodes.
  • Fixed Specter abilities sometimes not working.

Please, fix the Codex. It's such a disappointment to realize you can't possibly complete it after spending so much time on it.
The entries I personally have problems with:
Hyena pack - a bugged entry that shouldn't be there, since each Hyena is scanned individually.
Infested tumor - have 2 entries of it for some reason - one complete and one empty. Strongly suspect it's a bug as well.
Apothics - apparently supposed to unlock over the course of The Silver Grove quest? Completed the quest, all 3 entries are empty.

I feel like this is a little bit pointless, because if a new player wants a warframe, but the boss isn't unlocked yet then they'll taxi to the location anyway... But regardless, quality of life!
