I'm sitting on a pile of over 200k Endo and nothing to spend it on, it's the damned Credits that are always a bottleneck for me! I would rather pull my nails out than do more Index so I always end up running short on them.

Screw Gothic 3 and 4, this is the real sequel us Gothic fans have been waiting for! A genuine delight to play through, and the Polish voice acting was just as incredible as it was in Gothic 1 and 2, despite being a fan project! Waiting patiently for the Mod of the Decade edition to re-play it again and try out all the new things they add (very excited for the teased mage path!)

I've been playing a lot of Khora lately, she's become my go-to DPS frame of choice. Large part of why is how much of a glow-up Venari got in the companion rework, with the Assassin Posture they lock-in on Eximus units or Acolytes and tear through their overguard and armor (thanks to Sharpened Claws) near instantly. Not to mention the general mayhem they can cause with the insane status chance their claws have coupled with Contagious Bond. I'm ever so slightly worried about the impact pseudo-exalted rework will have on her Whipclaw, losing the 30% crit chance from Ceramic Dagger means red crits will no longer be achievable which nerfs the damage considerably. Gaining an arcane slot does little for her as Melee Exposure already works on Whipclaw, any other arcane you will be able to slot in has to compete with the raw power of 240% of more elemental damage. I hope DE rebalances the numbers when reworking the pseudo-exalteds and doesn't just copy them, Khora would likely survive just fine but frames like Atlas will become unusable without the crit chance buffs they get from Incarnons.

 

The huntress and her loyal companion, mistress of chains, Whipclaw goes brrrr - Khora!

Passive: Khora's ferocious Kavat, Venari, fights alongside her with steadfast zeal. While Venari is alive, Khora passively gains a 15% movement speed boost. If Venari is killed, she will respawn beside Khora after 45 seconds, or instantly if summoned via the third ability for an energy cost.
Whipclaw - Send enemies reeling with a deafening whipcrack.
Ensnare - Bind a hapless target in living metal, entangling others who stray too close. Whipclaw will refresh the trap allowing it to capture more enemies.
Venari - Command Venari to focus on a target. Hold to cycle between Attack, Protect, and Heal postures. If Venari is killed, use this ability to revive her instantly.
Strangledome - Weave a dome of living chain that ensnares and strangles any enemy within, and any foolish enough to approach. Foes outside the trap will try to hasten their comrade's deaths by shooting them. Crack Whipclaw on the dome to further damage any trapped enemies.

Acquisition: Main and component blueprints are acquired from standard Sanctuary Onslaught.

Priscilla's power lets her sacrifice things she loves to prevent damage to herself, huh? If this extends to beyond just objects, it would explain why she keeps most people she cares about at arm's length. Makes you wonder how many of her 8 husbands died a premature death due to this "gift".

The newest recipient of the Heirloom skin! Rhino is as ancient as the game itself and still holding up strong to this day, very fitting for his theme. Sure, there are better tank frames and his Roar is no longer unique to him, but he still receives the strongest, unnerfed version of it and his survivability is still more than good enough to stand up to (almost) everything the game throws at you. He is usually the 2nd frame most new players get their hands on and a very reliable alternative to whatever warframe they chose to start with. He's a very versatile frame you can bring to any mission and do fine with, plenty strong enough to carry you through the entire starchart and beyond. Praise be his mighty codpiece!

 

The immovable force, an ironclad warrior, wearer of the mightiest codpiece - Rhino!

Passive: If Rhino falls far enough to incur a Hard Landing, the ground impact will discharge a shockwave that deals Impact damage and Knockdown in a 6 meter area of effect.
Rhino Charge - Rhino charges towards a target, clobbering any in his path and goring his victim.
Iron Skin - Rhino hardens his skin, insulating himself from all damage.
Roar - Grants all nearby Warframes increased damage for a short duration.
Rhino Stomp - Rhino stomps with force sufficient to disrupt time, tumbling enemies around him in stasis.

Acquisition: Main blueprint can be purchased from the Market. Component blueprints are obtained from defeating Jackal on Fossa, Venus.

DE really should change Railjack's abilities to have a cooldown instead of draining the energy of your frame, they feel so much better to use that way. Then again, nobody is playing the game mode and it's pretty much abandonware at this point so I don't expect it to receive any changes.

With his prime right around the corner I thought it good time to revisit Lavos. I was surprised to see no mention of any changes to him during last Devstream when they showed off his prime, I feel like he could definitely use some cooldown reduction on his 4. 30sec is way too much for what this ability does, and with how much setup it requires to actually do reasonable damage. I feel like Lavos is being held up almost entirely by how absurdly strong Valence Formation is, he doesn't really have anything else going on for him other than his high natural tankyness.

 

The elemental alchemist, Orokin executioner, serpent whisperer - Lavos!

Passive: Lavos cleanses all active negative Status Effects and gains status immunity for 10 seconds upon collecting an Energy or Universal Orb. Picking up an Energy or Universal Orb has a cooldown of 5 seconds.
Ophidian Bite - Lash out with a toxic serpentine strike, consuming the target to heal Lavos.
Vial Rush - Dash forward, crashing through enemies and leaving an icy trail of broken vials.
Transmutation Probe - Launch a probe that converts Health and Energy Orbs into Universal Orbs that provide both, and ammo pickups into Universal Ammo Pickups. The probe shocks enemies in close proximity. Each electrocuted foe reduces other ability cooldowns by one second.
Catalyze - Catalyst Probes erupt from Lavos and douse combatants in a fiery gel. Damage is doubled for each element afflicting an enemy.

Acquisition: Main and component blueprints are available from Father with Entrati standing.

It's finally back! They knew what the were doing by opening up with Priscilla undressing. Sorry for the 3 months break, have some boobs!

Regulus might be immortal but that just means Reinhardt gets to have the cathartic experience of breaking his spine over and over again while kicking him around until Subaru figures out how to actually kill him for good.

Capella coming in to finish the job and give poor Felix even MORE trauma.

Shame this is the last of the community releases, although I fully understand why they would stop. I generally prefer the community translations to the official ones, I'll especially miss the chapter related memes we got on the last page. Off to the high seas I go, I guess (fuck geo-locked content).

[–] Keegen@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I was surprised by that one myself, I haven't used the weapon since the AoE ammo nerfs myself and we have a ton of much better crowd nuking weapons available now. I guess people who don't have Incarnons are using it for low level nuking, thus inflating its stats? Don't know why else it would have such overtly high kill numbers.

 

Zephyr Prime is up +6.81% with basic Zephyr up +10.50%! I shall claim full credit for causing this change! Glad more people discovered the power of the bird last year.

The other Hex frame that received a touch-up with 1999, while I was very much impressed with Nyx I can't say the same about Trinity. She's in a strange spot where her support skills are good in a vacuum but Warframe is not really a game where her specific way of supporting really shines. She can allows you to be incredibly greedy for energy, not care about status effects or enemy damage, but those are things most Warframe players already take into account when making their builds. A good build doesn't need external sources of energy, healing or survivability - that's what makes it good! If you knew you always had a Trinity with you, you could change your build to be really greedy but Warframe doesn't have any content that requires or incentivizes pre-build groups with select Warframes anymore. In most actual content with random players a more generic support like Wisp will be far more useful.

 

The vampiric healer, the original support frame, lobster skirt - Trinity!

Passive: Trinity and allies in her Affinity Range gain Lifegiver, which increases their Health equal to 50% (25% in Conclave) of Trinity's total Energy pool.
Well of Life - Create a well of life on an enemy who will absorb Status Effect damage intended for nearby allies. Allies gain additional Health when they attack the target. If allies die, enemies in the well of life die in their stead.
Energy Vampire - Allies will gain energy over time when enemies are marked with Energy Vampire.
Link - Any damage taken while Link is active will be channeled to a nearby enemy.
Blessing - Restore the health and shields of allies within Affinity Range while reducing the damage they take from enemies.

Acquisition: Main blueprint can be purchased from the Market. Component blueprints are obtained from defeating Ambulas on Hades, Pluto.

 

The psychic, mental manipulator, strongest minion frame - Nyx!

Release date: 2013-01-29

Passive: Nyx gains Thrive in Chaos whenever enemies within Affinity Range are afflicted with Confusion (from Radiation status effect or Mind Control), increasing her primary and secondary weapon Critical Chance by 40% per enemy up to a maximum of 200% from 5 enemies.
Mind Control - Nyx seizes control of a target's mind, compelling them to fight for the Tenno cause. Controlled enemies have increased Radiation Status Chance. When Nyx shoots them, they also have an increased Damage Multiplier.
Psychic Bolts - Nyx unleashes a volley of psychic bolts that track and strike nearby enemies with telekinetic precision. When enemies are slain, additional bolts scatter to new targets. Striking foes weakens their defenses and transfers a portion to Nyx.
Chaos - Nyx releases a devastating psychic pulse, disorienting enemies in a wide radius and forcing them to turn on each other. Confused foes lash out at random factions.
Absorb - Nyx draws in and contains the damage dealt to her and the damage confused enemies deal to each other then converts it into a devastating radial blast. Following the blast, she enters a brief invulnerable state and gains a Weapon Damage boost proportional to the absorbed damage.

Acquisition: Main blueprint can be purchased from the Market. Component blueprints can be obtained from defeating Phorid on assassination missions that appear during an Infested Invasion.

 

This is a bit of a unique twist on the weekly warframe format, instead of me bringing you the frame, it's time to do the opposite! (this is totally not because I have no ideas for a thread myself, nope!) Doesn't matter if it's an incredibly niche or a very popular warframe, if you have something to say about your favorite (or most hated) frame - this is your chance! Maybe you have a concept for a frame that doesn't exist but you wish it did? This is also the perfect chance to bring it up!

 

The bird queen, air elemental, most underappreciated frame - Zephyr!

Release date: 2014-02-05

Passive: Striking from the skies above, Zephyr is significantly lighter in comparison to other Warframes, dramatically altering her airborne physics. While airborne, Zephyr’s equipped weapons gain a 150% Critical Chance bonus.
Tail Wind - From the ground, charge and release to launch Zephyr into an airborne hover. From the air, tap to dash forward, or aim down to dive bomb enemies below.
Airburst - Launch a burst of massively dense air. Hold to send enemies flying, tap to pull them toward the burst. Damage increases per enemy hit.
Turbulence - Creates a wind shield around Zephyr, redirecting all incoming projectiles.
Tornado - Create deadly tornadoes that seek out and engulf enemies. Tornadoes deal the elemental damage type they absorb the most. Shoot enemies engulfed in Tornadoes to do additional damage.

Acquisition: Zephyr’s blueprints can be researched from the Tenno Lab in the dojo.

 

The invisible marksman, legal wall hack, one shot many kills - Cyte-09!

Passive: Gains Practiced Aim when he kills an enemy by damaging their Weak Points, increasing his Critical Chance against weak points by 1% up to a maximum of 300%, lasting for the entirety of a mission.
Seek - Plant an antenna that projects a forward wave scan. Detected enemies take increased Weak Point Damage, and become visible through walls. Weapons gain Punch through.
Resupply - Throw two Elemental Ammo Packs that instantly refill the active weapon's magazine, while granting the weapon an additional instance of the selected Elemental Damage and Status Effect. Reload clears the effect. Sniper Rifles gain extra damage.
Evade - Jump backwards and become invisible for a short duration. Killing enemies on their Weak Points extends the duration and heals Cyte-09.
Neutralize - Summon the Neutralizer, Cyte-09's exalted Sniper Rifle. Bullets ricochet off Weak Points to seek out other nearby Weak Points. Alt fire lobs a Cold grenade that completely freezes enemies.

Acquisition: Main blueprint is acquired upon completion of The Hex quest. Component blueprints are acquired from Höllvania Central Mall Bounties as an uncommon drop. Alternatively Cyte-09's blueprints can be purchased from Amir of The Hex.
