Yes, the Octavia quest was fun (it really was, I enjoyed it at least) but an actual, shoot-your-guns battle against him is something I wish was a thing. I guess the Eidolons are kinda like that, but it just isn't the same, since they don't really speak or have any personal history/rivalry with the players. Which is why some of your bosses are so interesting, they have this personal feeling to them, like you fight a villain, not a mindless fragment. Once we get more in depth info on Railjacks I might explore some deep space Sentient hunting :3 But a God of War style, combat on foot against a massive Sentient boss? I may just have something for you coming soon...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay first of all, please refrain from bringing up The New War. There is nothing to do with that Unreleased Cinematic Quest in my concept. Second of all, I disagree with this notion. The purpose of these rewards is to be another standing sink for veterans like myself and others who have bought everything else there is to buy from syndicates. Granting a discount on items would just expedite the process of obtaining items and reduce the amount of work players would have to do to get them.

I wouldn’t want people to be able to bypass this because I’m attempting to give something for players to work towards once again, as well as kickstart some economy stuff again. Making the Syndicate rewards difficult to acquire through standing alone puts a bigger emphasis on trading, imo. 6 hours ago, Unus said: Uh. . .

Hard to say how good it would actually be, but the combo mechanic is interesting to say the least. It definitely would have some flexibility in building, I could see it being crit or status focused. I don't know how good the hybrid would be. It does however seem kind of confusing that the sniper shot has low crit and high status, and the gas cloud has it inversed.

Stay tuned 😉 I managed to come up with a way to fill the gap mentioned here: you simply can’t use standing you already have in one faction. You have to use special “Orokin” standing obtained in missions on Tau. The only problem with that is that you only gain 50% of “Orokin” standing than what you would otherwise gain from faction missions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the way the old Sentients managed to cypher Orokin technology, stands to reason one could "teach" their component material to shape itself. Bolt-Action? Huh, is the Bolt the turn-crank looking gear on the side? Ugh, blasted brain, how does one translate Rounds-Per-Minute into Warframe's Fire-Rate? Reasonable so far. . . annndddd. . . hm, secondary Critical Chance seems to be considerably outside of norms. Also, how does one activate this secondary fire? Is it a toggle, some manner of reload quirk? OOF, that secondary damage increase! Is it possible to covert that three into a one? Other then that, seems reasonable at it's given role, reminds me of my Ostron pintle-gun the Horizon in some aspects, particulay in the projectile aspect of it's secondary fire.

Every time you take a shot, that thing kind of “pops open,” and all you need to do to reload is Punch it back into place. If you’ve played Planetside 2, it’s very similar to the Vanu Sovereignty’s standard sniper rifle. 6 hours ago, Unus said: Ugh, blasted brain, how does one translate Rounds-Per-Minute into Warframe's Fire-Rate? To ease your mind, it’s basically the exact same as the Vectis Prime. In the player’s hands you wouldn’t be able to tell much of a difference. As for the secondary fire, I did want to make it hit like a truck filled to the brim with bowling balls and strapped to a jet engine, but also require you to really get your combo counter going before it does any substantial damage. Think it’s too much? I mean, I did try to limit its accessibility by making the combo counter reset with use. Perhaps it would be better if enemies hit by the secondary fire did not grant combo counter? The secondary fire is your standard “press the alt fire key and u shoot exploding boolet” much like the Corinth or Quanta. To note, this weapon doesn’t get variable scope levels because of this!

Our op, the Almighty_Jato uses RPM here, which translates into Rounds Per Minute. Warframe on the other hand uses Rounds Per Second. What you have to do is just divide RPM by 60, and you get the in-game RPS. The gun in question fires slightly over 2.5 rounds per second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They made the Cerbelyst a real thing Jokes aside, it was a little fun to try and recreate one of my own sentient designs in game using what fashion items we have available.

Sc10n0fD4rksp0r3 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 To file away later, I did mention something (maybe here, maybe not) that I felt I could place here for other things, because Venus is adding hoverboards: A long time ago, when Mass Effect was still a somewhat open-world game, I did something awkward and ended up riding the Mako top-over-wheels down a slope to the base. It wasn't just sideways rolling, but all sorts of different rolling angles. Any angle of rolling you can think of, my Mako rolled that way. This is relevant because you can't expect to travel Tau's terrain just by Arcwing or hoverboard, if this thread had any ideas. So we could have either six-wheeled battle tanks that are more durable, but slower and prone to rollover; or three turbine hover tanks that can strafe, ignore terrain damage, have absolutely no rollover but less durability. I'm mentioning it here because I had an image in my head that Clem is a terrible driver, and after a rollover that I mentioned earlier there is this exchange: Op: "What were you thinking trying that slope, Clem?!" Cl: "Grakata Clem, Grakata." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almighty_Jado Posted August 5, 2018 Author Share Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) Legion of Tau: Hotfix 2.11 Updated the appearance of the Dax Dowager to better reflect the new Dax designs revealed in The Sacrifice update. Additionally, the blade has been altered to resemble a naginata more in reference to the Dax’s similarities to Samurai SIDE NOTE: The Dax Dowager’s special gimmick may have to be reworked with the upcoming melee 3.0 changes.
