DelterSkelter Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 A lot of these seem like damage nerfs, like the Gammacor and Atomos. Are they supposed to be balanced out by the status changes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire2box Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Edit:" somehow missed it on my scrolling. Not sure how well Galxion will be useable especially in comparison to my 230% multishot, 120% crit tiberon. I have rivens for both. Haven't bothered to roll Glaxion. I get an Galxion riven last week and it's not getting buffed out of it's useless state. My riven could be rolled to make it good, but it will never compare to tiberon or tigris prime which both have rivens. So what's even the point of rolling Glaxion? either buff it or fix rivens please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoisonHD Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 1 hour ago, [DE]Rebecca said: Beam Weapons & Warframe. Depending on how long you've played our game you've either only known them to function as they currently do (calculating per second), or remember a time when they calculated damage much differently. Perhaps 5 year-veterans speak of a different era of Beam Weapons. @Cicasajt This pretty much states they are doing away with damage calculations per second, and changing it to something new, or well, reverting them to the beasts they once were. It also heavily implies that they're doing away with status/sec because they no longer will have them be calculating per second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the most fun things about the flux rifle is how easily it splits enemies into many pieces because it has like 80% slash damage. It’s one of the reasons it’s my favorite weapon, despite how garbage it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flux Rifle's original reload time was 2 seconds. With battery, regen delay approximates to roughly less reload time (just over 1 second) with the added bonus that dodge rolls don't interrupt it. I like the idea of adding battery mechanics to Flux since it is of Corpus design. I don't think i'm completely understanding the way dmg and status is going to be calculated, but if it is truly "as they were before" then this sounds fantastic. However, I do request that those puncture and slash percentages be swapped (56% Slash, 44% Puncture) as many fans like myself liked that aspect of the Flux Rifle. On another note, these stats seem to be on the lower spectrum of changes presented here. I was hoping Flux could get better DPS, but hopefully I am just mistaken about this but i'll have to wait and test. I think the weapons team did an amazing job on the last balance pass so I am confident they will do a good job on beam weapons. Keep it up :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldnacpeek Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I'll save my opinions for when I actually use the new Synapse and Amprex, because right now I don't know what to expect. I just hope they perform well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArcusVeles Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Why the range nerfs on the Ignis series and Amprex? Coming down from 40m to 20 and 27m for the Ignises and 18m to 14m on the Amprex is brutal. Why not more range buffs? What's the point of beam weapons having such a short range? Serious question. I like the Ignis' current range and use it often to sweep rooms for containers and to proc Viral/Radiation (losing the punch through is gonna suck, lots of little bumps in geometry are likely going to ruin this gun) and I use the Atomos for when I'm doing Kuva runs because dancing around the siphon and bouncing beams off of it is fun, but their limited range and mediocre damage has always kept them as utility/fun weapons and not something I take into serious missions. I'm interested to see if these changes will improve their usefulness to me at all, but I'm pretty unsure right now since I was at least expecting ranges to at lease stay the same, if not be improved a little. Seeing something like the Embolist go from 6m to 9m is making me worried you guys don't understand how useless such short ranges are, though.
