Why does Titania require a total of ~13 forma to be min maxed now? 😞

There we go, I just got to the point where I had to restart the game every time I adjusted the mods or loadout of Umbra.

[Omega]

Thank you!

Spoiler

making umbra mods usable on all frames coming or was it intentional to have them only on umbra? ( i.e. umbra polarities for all frames)

 

[Kylo.]

Thank you.

Umbra's abilities are disappointing. Explanation in spoilers.

 

Umbra's 1, 3, and 4 are functionally identical to Excalibur's. And that's fine.
Umbra's 2 ("Radial Howl") is also like Excalibur's... except it takes twice as long to cast. The only upside is that it wipes Sentient resistances.

Radial Howl's casting animation literally lasts 1.8 seconds from start to finish. For comparison, Rhino Stomp takes 1.5 seconds and Radial Blind takes 0.9 seconds.
It feels sluggish and horrible to use, especially if you're an Excalibur player who expects his 2 to be quick and responsive.

Even Howl's upside has no effect in 99.9% of WF's content. And even for the other 0.1%, literally every Operator attack (including a quick tickle from the Mote amp) does the same job just as fast. In terms of abilities alone, Umbra's moveset is a straight downgrade to Excalibur's.

 

Could Radial Howl's casting speed be doubled? Not to make it "overpowered", but to give it the same speed and reliability that Radial Blind already provides.

 

After years of waiting, Umbra is finally out. But... I think I'm going to go back to my regular Excal.
I was expecting an upgrade to my favourite frame, but at the moment, Umbra isn't that.

Thanks DE!

Could not have timed it any better than that. In the middle of updating the cache.

WHAT ARE YOU STILL DOING UP GO TO SLEEP!!

[Raspberry]

Already lost 6 Forma in about an hour to exalted weapons

Would've been nice to get more innate Madurai polarities

[FearsomeWarrior]

Is the Nikana skin supposed to be 225 plat? Looks like it is supposed to be 25plat. That also makes the 550 plat bundle priced incorrectly?

[--Q--Ascended-Seraphim]

Please let umbra use Excalibur primes skins and vice versa!

[LogNoaNick]

Thanks DE !
