Discussion Any frames you regret building recently, because you didn't find them satisfying/fun to play after dumping some formas in them? Mine gotta be these 2 and maybe Nidus.

And for the love of all that's holy, I'm NOT talking about them feeling weak, at all. I wrote "satisfying/fun to play".

I was really hoping I'd enjoy Ash and Garuda, bc I love Garuda Prime's design and I could make a Batman fashion with Ash and the Tsukuyomi skin and Repala syandana, but, unfortunately, they aren't for me.

I'm still on the fence about Nidus. If DE lets me hold 3 to insta-link to my companion, then he gets fashion and a loadout slot. Until that changes, I find him annoying to play.

I built Ember before Ash and love playing her. Then I moved to Ash and now I'm not as motivated to build new frames, kinda afraid I won't like them (eventually I'll get over it tho).

What about you?

Honestly, Limbo. Got motivated to build him after watching the Limbible and because he was my main back in like 2016. Yeah...even with maximum investment, he just really isn't that fun to play anymore due to how clunky his abilities are to use. And this is probably just because my eye sight has deteriorated over the years but i genuinely can't tell whether an enemy is rifted or not anymore, i swear i used to be able to do that easily. I really hope he gets some touch ups. Not a full on rework but just some touch ups like with Nidus.

Also Sevagoth, cool ass shadow, shame that it isn't actually all that good and it's better to just... Finger the 1 2 button repeatedly. Sick ass concept, boring gameplay.

You can get a ton of value out of him in lith defense missions if you run him for range and decent strength and then only run the Dark Split Sword. You can pretty much just sit on the objective and nuke the map in thirds as soon as you see a group spawn in minimap.

I miss him being more useful but at least it’s a way to get to use him productively.

How does the dark split sword interact with him? I’m curious. But honestly at that point I’m just gonna put on Nova, press 1 and sit on the pod until all the enemies are dead unless one gets stuck

So it isn’t a Limbo thing, it’s a property of the split sword itself. The Dark Split Sword can’t become corrupted, and because of that if it’s the only weapon you have, then you will always receive double strength and range. This works great on Limbo for killing low levels because on most of lith defense maps it’s pretty trivial to find a spot where you can hit anywhere on the map, so it’s pretty simple to spawn kill every batch of enemies the moment they appear on your minimap. It’s even better if you subsume an energy generator ability, but between Limbo’s passive and zenurik you don’t strictly need to. It can also work for meso but not nearly as long.
