Archwing for Companions

[tprx]

Why not have archwing for our favorites companions? I can just see my little Laika jetting around chasing baddies... :D

Note that the archwing has input from the warframe. I doubt the pets are intelligent enough. Maybe just a jetpack and breathing system with some sort of homing beacon that follows the player.

Now some sort of space propulsion system for sentinels, that I could get behind. They don't even need life support.

They can make ordis control the current available companions and give them special abilities that can compliment an archwing. Taxon will global slow, carrier makes charge weapons like grattler fire rate better, Wyrm enables auto targetting, and obviously vacuum for drops would definitely welcomed. No idea on Kavats or Kubrows though.

You know what I'll give you this one. But the problem will be that this goes on the back of the line of all the content and inevitable fixes they have lined up.

The idea of companions getting involved in Arcwhing has actualy been adressed in a devstream shortly after AW was first released. There were even some laughs at the idea of a Kubrow with a jetpack flying after you biting space ships.

In theory nothing speaks against the general idea of Archwing support units based around your companions. Like a Kubrow can remote controll a drone which has a hydraulic claw simulating the Kubrow's bite or a Kavat controlling a drone which rams enemies with build on plasma bladed arms and legs. Similar your Sentinel being put in a gunpod ala R-Type flying besides you.

It appears the main reason we don't have anything like this yet, is simply that the development focus on Archwing quickly faded as other new features had to be worked on.
