Can we please make Vacuum universal?

[DaManD]

If all companions could use the Vacuum mod it would give heaps of players a reason to use pets. At the moment players who desperately need loot and mods are currently stuck with sentinels only. The only other option with pets is Retrieve which is a kubrow exclusive mod that allows the Chesa kubrow to retrieve items. It constantly gets interrupted by combat and the mechanic is slow and the kubrow very infrequently picks up important items.

It's already a universal passive on all Warframes; did you miss that patch?

Honestly, I like using pets because of Cat Eye's crit chance buff on the Smeeta Kavat.

It's legit, but it's only in a 3-4 meter radius

It is universal, though not as powerful as the mod. This, I'd assume, is to give Carrier more individuality as a sentinel.

But yes, they all have it, at least to some degree.

This is the kind of thing I can get behind.

The vacuum mod should be a warframe mod that extends pick up range. Our warframes are the ones that pick up things, not our companios or sentinels. It should never have been a sentinel mod or Carrier mod to begin with. Remember when Carrier was the only thing that could do that? No one ever used anything else other than Carrier so all sentinels got it.

If you need loot then go for sentinels. If you don’t then go for pets 

 

  Having vacuum on pets won’t make them playable more, they need reworking and better AI

If this becomes a warframe mode, I would very likely not equip it. I have better uses for my slots.

Care to explain how it would work? Several threads have already explained that for sentinels items are sucked in and dropped on your frame because the sentinel is always pretty much above you. If your Kavat is the other side of a room sucking in loot how does it get to the frame? Ok, seeing a swirling tornado of loot running around would be funny at first but the idea doesn't work.

If you want sentinel abilities take a sentinel. If you want Kavat/Kubrow abilities you take one of those instead, simple.

Wait, your explanation about sentinel is correct but it's unnecessary with the sentinel above you thingy, it's affected by vacuum mod, that's all... if you don't put the mod, it's just simply you picking up the item.

Kavat, cannot pick item. However, Chesa Kubrow can pick your item, if it is mod then chesa will grab it and bring it to you, others he/she will grab it as it is a warframe, so it doesn't bring the item to you. Kavat and other else only capable of some buffs and abilities.

And yes, we have 3m universal vacuum, to test it, don't use any sentinel or kubrow. And then try standing beside the item without touching it, that's your vacuum

I would really appreciate more discussion on this with the Pet competition on. I really think it would be cool if the vacuum mod worked the same way on the pets as it does on the sentinels. That means that you would work together (as in real life) to gather loot. Wherever your Kubrow or Kavat went, it would gather loot in the same radius as the sentinel. If you use Animal Instinct you would easily tell what loot your pet has picked up. There's no better feeling than working or playing together with your pet and that feeling can come through to the wonderful game of Warframe too :)
