Shrine of the Eidolon: Update 22.17.0 + 22.17.0.1

[xZephyrosx]

Just did a 30 min kuva survival and dropped 3.6k kuva... thats enough to roll my riven once!

How many kuva can i gain in 30 min's the normal way? Maybe double or triple that amount.

Beside's that we got fashion frame again ... GIVE us a weapon and something to do..

Back to Rainbow Six: Siege it is.

so bloody true. Been playing the sh!t out of that game for a while now. Hardly play any warframe at all these days...

[HYPRLNK_BLCKD]

Confused by the idea to change from offline mode to "Do not disturb" mode. It was so nice to have an option to not appear online, do not disturb mode is not hiding my online presence anymore.

Proper SMAA x4 Anti-aliasing when?

this.

Also, please bring back Temporal AA+FXAA. That looked amazing when it was first in the game. You had it in for about half a year around 2016ish. It looked fantastic.

I remember it being: FXAA low, FXAA medium, Temporal AA, Temporal AA + FXAA. The last option was amazing. 

 

Either that, or SMAA, or MSAA up to 8x

[AvPCelticPredator]

Zaw's are broken now after last Hotfix, my polearm shows completely different statistic, no have dmg, physical and elemental dmg seems like I wasn't gild my Zaw and looks like I didn't add any mod.

There's no reason to go endless, no reward for sticking it out.  Just like every other starchart endless mission, a waste of a mode that could be truly 'endless'.

Agreed. No long term reward in this entire bloody game and it becomes increasingly hard to remain attached to this game. There is NO reason at all to go into a survival for an hour which is ACTUALLY the only thing I find enjoyable AT all in this game because the entire star chart is a walk in the park for me now...

You have your math wrong.

 

Towers spawn at a fixed 90 second per tower. and then you defend for a minute. in 5 minutes the best you can do is 3 towers. Each tower gives you 200 (400 with a booster).

that is 1.2k without a smeeta. you can't possibly have a smeeta buff active all the time. 3200 is unobtainable (or extemesly rare) unless you can prove otherwise.

I should explained better, I didn't mean in the first 5 minutes.
If you do a 7 minutes run I guess you can get 800 kuva without boost. But after that you should be able to farm 2,3,4 at the same time. After 30 minutes should be (+-)4000 kuva without booster.

I usually do kuva flood missions solo, with booster i get (+-)2100 kuva. In kuva survival missions, it took me (+-)15 minutes to get the same amount of kuva, and I can stay or repeat the same mission without waiting until the next flood mission appears.

Is better than flood missions? Maybe, maybe not. But is a viable alternative.

[Cmdr-A]

All I can say is

The man in gauze

[Xaxma]

Please increase Kuva rewards and allow them to scale somehow.

[XeLLoOoOo]

Copy paste from Wiki

 making a total of 40,756 different combinations for a single Riven (NOTE: Only applies for Weapons that deal Physical Damage, not fully pure Elemental Damage weapons like Amprex)

[MysteriousTenno]

Thank you for this surprise with awesome skin for Inaros. I realy like it. But i think i found missing effect on his legs. And can y please move his skirt to a auxiliary? Pretty pleeeeeaseee. Just i'm dude and don't like skirts that much :)  Ofcourse if he have horrible back i would gladly put it back, i swear :) 

 

 

[Warboar_Hilmer]

I like the new articulas but please make them either sizeable, so I could make them as tall as my frame OR PLEASE PLEASE make placable npcs with small animation with a few dialogues. The ship feels so lonely I only have a kubrow as comapny. Npcs would fix that, we could get npcs from syndicates for example. My dream is that one day I could have a corpus crew with robotics on my orbiter. Plus we could have clem too. 

Overall I like the kuva changes I had no problem with the old system but if it helps others I am all for it.
Sand boi looks great.
and as I said I REALLY welcome the decorations. 

Thank you all of your hard work I wish you good health and take care !

firstly i dont know what did you done in 15 min, i can done every single kuva missions in max 5-6 minutes, and floods giving around 2400 2500 2600 kuva with booster.

and maybe you have to think this

if you get charm in flood, you will have extra 2,400  kuva, but if you get in survival you will get 400 extra, how look its now?

[xXHobbitXx]

yet another update with no real content just cosmetics :( the kuva endless runs arent worth it at 200p tower, can get more doing normal kuva and flood missions :(, havent checked yet, but i hope you addressed the very dark tileset of xini now, bet you didnt

[Vanblaster4]

Fixed cases of the Teralyst literally dissolving when killed with the Acrid.

Acrid buff confirmed?

[Rahlence]

7200 in 27m, and 2 of the supports were bugged and wouldn't convert.  I'm pretty happy with the rate.

 

Might be better to just do quick runs repeatedly.  2k in 6m:

 

[ApocNizmith]

I think that the kuva should scale per tower personally just ran 20 minutes got like 7200 kuva using booster. Maybe add 10-20 per tower so it just goes up and up to give us any reason to stay.

Really? you can do a spy/excavation/exterminate mission AND farm the kuva in 5 minutes?

*15 minutes in survival mode solo, I forgot to type that :)

[WMan22]

So I just did a run where I played for 21 minutes and got 3,000 unbooosted kuva (That i'm not entirely sure even manifested in my inventory).

While this is not nearly as harrowingly low as I expected, it is not nearly enough, especially since my team was using precisely 0 life support capsules as actual life support to achieve this and our LS was getting ropey even with a nekros on our team with good range.

I appreciate that this is a gamemode now, but the fact that you don't even get enough kuva for a single roll after playing 20 minutes is really bad especially since this is not the case if you just run regular kuva missions using that same amount of time, and they are far easier to play. Kuva rewards need to have a higher baseline than 200 or at least double in ratio per kuva capsule every AABC rotation.

Remember that this is one of the hardest tilesets in the game with armored special grineer enemies, and therefore should not be treated with the same levity as other tilesets like pluto excavation in terms of reward to difficulty ratio. I don't think even floods are as hard to play as maintaining defense targets in this gamemode. Please, I implore you to rethink how much kuva we're getting from this to be something more substantial.

It makes no sense to me that you can go a full 20 minutes in that cluster#*!% of high danger grineer and not even get enough to reroll a riven once.

 

[Doforcash]

small suggetion for Kuva mission:

1/ allow us to put more then 1 kuva capsule into the life support / or mutiple capsule spawm

2/ the Crazy cat lady flamer somehow bypass Volt eletric shield (everytime), prob a bug

 

otherwise, thanks you so much for the kuva update DE :D

[Hawk197]

So... No new weapons, no new warframe, no new pets, not even new sentinels. So... Exactly WHY are you guys selling Affinity Boosters still? I love you guys, I really do, but at this point there's almost no reason to log on and play. Only thing I've done for like, 2 or 3 months now is grind Kuva to reroll Rivens. My Opticor has 150 rerolls on it, and I got dozens more with 50+ rerolls. That gets old and causes burnout, you know guys? Can't keep players playing if the only thing you have to offer is a single reason to play. I'm not asking for a brand new system, I'm just asking for even a crap weapon, one that we'll rank up for mastery fodder. It could be an April Fools weapon for all I care at this point.

 

And 200 Kuva per tower? I can run a siphon in 4 to 5 minutes at 1k Kuva minimum (With booster). You're telling me that 6 minutes minimum (Assuming you get life support every 2 minutes) in Endless awards 1.2k Kuva (With booster)...? That's only 200 more Kuva. And the towers can be destroyed, whereas the siphon can't. And if the tower gets destroyed, you lose the Kuva? Anyone else seeing a problem? If there are 5 siphons up, 1k per siphon (Or maybe more if RNGsus favors you), I can get 5k in 20 minutes. Assuming you get towers every 2 minutes and can protect them, you're getting 4k Kuva after 20 minutes. You literally get at least a full thousand more Kuva from doing SIPHONS. That's not even counting high luck rolls were you may get 1.2k Kuva or 1.5k Kuva during that siphon. Even if I removed my booster and my Smeeta Kavat, the numbers still don't make sense. 2k Kuva for 20 minutes in a siphon run, verses 1k Kuva for 20 minutes Endless. Don't double the Kuva, that'd be too much. But maybe allow us to overcharge the tower with more cells for more Kuva? Or, the more towers we use for Kuva, the more total Kuva each produces? As it stands right now, this game mode will be just as dead as Lunaro if the Kuva isn't increased.

[Ad0tHam]

I love the new Ramsies collection, its what I've been wanting for forever now. (Btw, in the Market picture, Inaros is holding his Kopesh backwards. I don't know if it's like that in the actual game or if it's just supposed to be like that, but I thought id let you guys know)

 

Also, any news on the Sacrifice or Apostacy quests yet?  

[1nfam0usBastrd]

Why do you guys constantly release things without listening to the community? (which you claim you do so well) During the last Devstream 20 thousand people unaminously said that 200 Kuva was not enough per station and you guys replied with "this is just a number we're throwing out there" but you STILL went ahead with that even though you knew there was going to be an immediate backlash!?!! On top of that when are you ever going to adress the Hydrolyst bugs! After watching the YouTube documentary from Noclip and seeing Rebecca basically saying we will release new content and put bugs on the back burner is a pretty poor thing to say imo. These bugs are HUGE and game breaking but you insist on making MORE bugs by releasing new things on top of the briken things which in turn makes things more BROKEN. DO you not have in house testers? I love this game but your pushing me away with your inability to fix the PoE

New Gamemode: Endless Kuva Survival!
Endless Kuva Survival brings an Excavation/Defense twist while maintaining the intensity of Survival. This gamemode offers players a much requested avenue to acquire Kuva outside of the Siphon/Flood mechanic, and on the aptly named Kuva Fortress! Players, both Public and Solo, now balance risk and reward as they sacrifice their Life Support Towers for precious Kuva.

The current Kuva awarded per successful Kuva Harvester is set at 200. A plethora of test runs and acquired stats showed that 200 Kuva sat safely in between Kuva Siphon and Kuva Flood missions. This value is not set in stone - we are eager to read your feedback from your own playthroughs! 

How it works:

• Taveuni on the Kuva Fortress is now the new home of Endless Kuva Survival. 
• A marked enemy carrying a Kuva Catalyst will spawn per Life Support Tower.
• Picking up this Kuva Catalyst and simply walking up to an unactivated Life Support Tower, transforms the Life Support Tower into a Kuva Harvester. Now you must protect this Kuva Harvester for 1 minute (as indicated on your UI) as enemies will now logically and forcefully attempt to destroy it. If they succeed in destroying the Kuva Harvester, you will lose out on both Kuva and the Life Support Tower.
• Once the Kuva Harvester is complete, 200 Kuva is awarded to everyone! Completed Kuva Harvesters also give a small percentage of Life Support to aid in your literal Survival.
  • Worth noting that this 200 Kuva is awarded the same way as Kuva Siphon/Flood missions, as opposed to a physical Kuva kool aid bottle drop that was proposed in the Dev Workshop as. Meaning, you do not need to return to the Tower to physically pick up your Kuva, it is instantly awarded (still affected by Boosters and Smeeta Charm). 

Check out the full Dev Workshop here for examples and FAQ:

Kuva Fortress Survival Improvements:

• Removed cramped and maze-like Kuva Fortress tiles that felt unsuitable for an Endless Survival with an Excavation/Defense twist.
• Added a repurposed Fortress Defense tile to Kuva Fortress Survival with improved enemy navigation and traversible areas. 
• Improved enemy spawn flow and navigation in the Kuva Fortress Survival tilesets.

Kuva Guardian Changes:
In light of all these changes surrounding Kuva, we felt it necessary to make improvement tweaks to the Kuva Guardians. When faced outside of The War Within quest, their mechanic required to turn them vulnerable has been met with some confusion.

As an overall change, Kuva Guardians are now easier to turn vulnerable, but will become tougher to kill once they are. 

Previously vulnerability flow was: 

• Operator Void Blast to stun, then Void Dash when stunned to disarm their Kesheg and turn vulnerable.

NEW vulnerability flow:

• No stun state required. Operator Void Blast OR Void Dash to disarm their Kesheg and turn vulnerable.

General Kuva Guardian Changes:

• Increased base Health from 300 to 400.
• Slightly increased the Fire Rate of their Twin Rogga .
• Guardian Health type is now in line with the rest of Grineer.
• Weaker against Heat and Viral but more resistant to Gas.
• Added a pulsing red glow around Kuva Guardians for a few seconds to depict when they are vulnerable (similar to the Teralyst).

All new poseable and scale models of both Grineer and Corpus foot soldiers!

Grineer

• Frontier Butcher 
• Frontier Eviscerator

Grineer Commander Switch Teleport Changes:
We’ve all been in that sudden situation when you’re Switch Teleported into an angry mob of Butchers happily thrashing at your face. Questions of ‘how did I get here?’, ‘who done did that to me?’ and ‘why me, Lotus, why?!’ are typically asked to oneself. The lack of warning or indication that a Commander Switch Teleport is about to occur can leave one confused and distraught, which is why we’ve made some changes to improve not only indication, but also ability to avoid!

• Increased the Commander Switch Teleport cast time to 2 seconds instead of being almost instant, and added a casting sound indication.
• Both Grineer Commander and his target will glow orange during his Switch Teleport cast.
• Bullet Jumping or dodge rolling can now break you out of the Switch Teleport. Previously the only way to avoid being Switch Teleported is to kill the Commander while he is casting. 
• Switch Teleport now delivers a Knockdown Status debuff after being teleported (unless Modded to avoid or minimize Knockdowns).

General Changes:

• Survival Life Support Towers no longer have interval spawn scaling (90 seconds + 1 second per pillar), instead they will just spawn every 90 seconds.
• More Visual Effect intensity changes to reduce visual noise from:
  • Quanta Energy cube explosions
  • Teralyst ability FX
  • Vomvalyst ability FX
• Improved sound differentials between body and head hit notifications.
• Removed option to Purchase/Gift items if there is a new Update available to download. This often resulted in errors due to mismatched versions trying to communicate. 
• Upon taking damage, Kubrow Dens will now only spawn 4 Kubrows to defend their Den instead of an infinite amount. This fixes a potential for ‘infinite Kubrow spawns’ that has reared its head before.
• Improved AI navigation on the Grineer Earth tileset by allowing AI to wade through water properly.
• •    Changed the /offline Chat command to /dnd (Do not Disturb) to more accurately describe the mode. ‘Do Not Disturb’ mode will now auto decline game Invites and auto reply to private messages to indicate that you are unavailable (disable with the Chat command /normal).

[Buttaface]

Inaros, the "Egyptian mummy god" frame, is metal with rocket jets coming off every piece of it... jets on the elbows of a... mummy. Rly. Oh, and he gets a lobster tail like Trinity. Is he the rocket-powered mummy god of the deep now? Guess the 14 and under player base has increased. Color differentiation is bad also as others note.

Endless Kuva, great idea, but the maps in Kuva Fortress, in a game with many lousy, weird maps, are among the worst, nonsensical mazes with lots of pitch black for eyestrain. Maybe add some strobe lights in there for players with epilepsy next patch to up the "difficulty."

Kidding aside, please make a pass on the general quality and coherence of the maps one day. Thanks.
