Warframe

[Day of the Cope]

So, trying Dante's augment... it's not worth using. The range is far too small, range mods only increases the buff range to allies and not the zone itself, the energy you get back per enemy doesn't scale with strength, and being per enemy (combined with the poor, unmoddable zone range) means you'll basically get no energy back while your teammates nuke everything. What a waste of an augment. Seriously, what is the point of adding an enemy cap limit of 10 if you're not going to let me mod the range of the fieldzone.

I've noticed the storyquests have actually gotten a lot better ever since she was put at the helm (the difference between natah, second dream, and sacrifice to Whispers In The Wells, The Hex, And Old Peace is miles apart)

There is the issue where it feels like DE is leaving too many plotlines laying around for the future. I understand wanting to leave something for later, but the issue with leaving plotlines lying around is that you'll eventually trip on them.

Yeah. but if it comes down to it. I'd rather have a lot of loose threads to theorize about than something completely spartan.

"Hey!"

Trying out Nidus, he's definitely a lot better with the recent changes. Being able to get minutes worth of Persistance with your companion who can get six figures worth of health, healing more HP than Persistence lets through, doing considerable damage with your maggots.

Oh, I'm sure it's leading to somewhere, but fuck me if it doesn't feel like DE is blueballing us.

This update is kind of a miss. The story, as is tradition at this point, just starts in the middle of a plot that has no introduction.

Spoiler: questions

Why were vena and ryoku made into protoframes? How did they travel back from the future and bring an entire army with them? How do the new protoframes get involved in with S/O? Guise, they offhand mentioned cephalon parvos, time to soyface! Are they actually going to explain that? No, and we will learn literally nothing about either alternate bad future. Where was the operator in all of that? Who knows. Does Umbra have any kind of reaction to seeing a warframe baby, which does not bring it the same suffering that Umbra's transformation did? No, he just kind of stands there.

That's just a few things I can think of, I'm sure I could expand this section ten(no)-fold if I sat with it for a while. It wasn't all terrible.

Hunhow with dementia saying "Hello, little maker. How may I serve?" had me looking like the withered wojak. I just wish the overall quest was longer or simpler in order to make it more coherent.

I'm very tired of the void magic shenanigns, especially when they won't even commit to exploring the premises they use it to create. I'm very tired of protoframes at this point, they are changing the aesthetic of the game for the worse to appeal to normies who hate scifi.

Steel path railjack is pretty memes, its not worth playing until they give us new tools because everything is a sponge even with a fully built ship. Best strategy seems to be Nokko built for the energy shroom so you can spam the swarm missiles. I don't know what happned or if they fixed it, but on launch day you couldn't pick up energy orbs in the pilot seat anymore, which made dispensary very tedious because you would have to keep getting off the pilot seat to collect then go back in.

On the flipside, even the redditors are annoyed at the new protoframes (including that DE is ramping up their frequency) and their lack of lore (for the time being).

Yeah like
it was an okay quest, 6.5/10
I would rather have explored each timeline somehow to merge them rather than skip right to the bit where Hunhow does the thing.

The brothers' ult having a LOS check when the damn thing is already moving us around a bunch makes it feel weaker than it is. I get they want to avoid letting us effortlessly nuke rooms, but Uriel's ult feels a lot better to get off in comparison.
