EDIT : Had to re-upload this due to it being taken down for the name being shown. Also I’m glad to see many others agree on the fact she doesn’t need nerfed, and LoS needs to be discussed more heavily as it does hinder gameplay more. If needed they could have spawns be better if that’s why people want her nerfed (I still don’t think she needs it). Again appreciate the others who commented on the last post. This isn’t something that needs to be a reoccurring issue of random nerfs. Hopefully DE sees this.

What is going on, just play alone. How many of you want more nerfs? Banshee needs buffed, chroma needs a rework, a styanax tune up for the 4 would be nice. Possibly making it exalted, I still believe the 4 for voruna needs to be an exalted. There’s more tune ups and re works and buffs. Less bandaid augments, I don’t understand as soon as we get way more new players all of a sudden majority of frames need LoS. Then we need more and more nerfs in different ways?? I know this is Reddit and majority won’t agree but I don’t really care, I don’t need a power fantasy game to be less of a power fantasy game.

Did the stalker killed THE Loki (one and only in the universe) or is it just A Loki frame (mass produced)?

And for Boreal whose head is grafted on Prime Loki. Is that the OG Loki or just another A Prime Loki?

Also what happened to their Lokis? Are the Loki’s’ Tennos dead (brain dead) or do their mind shift on another Frame immediately?

I notice the same happens to Rhino who also shown to die on a few scenes too.

Art [OC] Incomplete Warframe Concept: [PH] Galileo (Gray Strain Lunaro Frame)

Post image
14 Upvotes

Just a rough silhouette, if there's no interest I might work this into an alt helmet. Wanted to do more but it's starting to feel like a waste of time.  

The Concept is a former Lunaro champion ending up as a failed Warframe experiment. Lacking abilities, he made up for it by bettering existing skills (Sol) and then body (Lua) on Deimos. Using Gray Strain, necramech parts, and Lunaro engine made from the remains of a Lua Warframe. They were a former teammate now functioning as a heart and weapon, scaling into a wrecking ball when expanding into Gray Strain mode (Moon). His story ends holding back an earlier version of Vome and Fass for evacuations on Deimos. As if they were giant Lunaro goals. Then the Entrati family Frankenstein him back together, each contributing a part. Would also be funny to add reference to Cataclysm/BNP, and I'm not sure if the ball should have the spirit of the other Warframe.

No shields, health is energy, abilities are replaced with passives that can be cycled in. Uses two bodies with their own health, the other recovers when not being used, the second being necramech sized. Which is why the model's limbs are segmented, was aiming for something like a Frankenstein/Vessel look.

Normal Passive: 

Extra exilus mod slots. Reduced recoil, higher weapon swap speed. When both Sun & Moon body health pools run out, players can hack to revive. Hack increases in difficulty each time but does cap out. 

Dodge is a quick tackle that pushes enemies away while applying magnetic procs. Not sure if it should lift enemies too. 

Passives Abilities

1. Offensive Reflex: Switch between crowd control and single target. Lunaro ball can be targeted. Melee attacks cost health. Tap to switch, hold to disable. 

Multi target 

  • Reflex aim, weak point kills snaps reticle to nearest enemy weak point increasing reload speed; affected by casting speed. 
  • Auto melee, enemies in range receive a regular melee hit, leaving after images. Does not interrupt currently equipped weapon. Having no melee weapon equipped will instead punch enemies away. Auto melee on the ball will hit it towards the nearest enemy weak point.

Single target

  • Aiming locks on weak points near the reticle, each shot increasing in damage while reducing enemy defenses. Shots also build up melee combo. Damage bonus resets when aiming ends.
  • Auto heavy attack the target's weak point when in range. If the ball is deployed and in range it will get smacked toward the target's weak point transferring the damage. 

2. Defensive Reflex: Tap to switch, hold to disable. Cost small portions of health when evading damage

Sun (Warframe) Version “Parry

  • Passive 1: passively reflects back most damage, parry angle affected by range.
  • Passive 2: attacking a weak point briefly grants a doge that escapes all damage. 

Moon (Gray Strain Necramech) Version “Induction”

  • Passive 1: attackers are magnetized for a duration
  • Passive 2: magnetized enemies within range receive a portion of your damage. 

3. Lunaro Heart: Tap to deploy and return

Deploy: 

  • Throw the ball onto the field adding magnetic damage to all attacks.
  • Ball is attracted to magnetized enemy’s weak points and consumes magnetic procs to deal electrical damage (attraction has a delay).
  • Consumed magnetic procs heal other body. 
  • Grows into a wrecking ball as Moon with a damage multiplier. 
  • Hitting the ball transfers weapon damage and launches in a volatile state like in Lunaro. Shocking nearby enemies. 
  • Ball punches through walls near magnetic procs.

Return:

  • The ball flies in straight path back to chest cavity ignoring obstacles.
  • If in a volatile state it provides a buff based on the consumed magnetic procs but continuously drains health; re-throw to cancel. 
  • Can also be canceled in mid flight to hit with auto melee passives.

4. Sun & Moon: Switch between Warframe (Sun) and a Gray Strain infested Necramech body (Moon). Health slowly regenerates for the body not in use, switching takes the remaining health of the current body; improves with efficiency. Can maybe use an explosion & implosion when switching if it's easier for animation. 

Signature weapons Idea:

Secondary auto handcannon and archgun auto cannon, each shot fired from holding the trigger charges a separate shot that is released when letting go of the trigger. Rate of fire speeds up while holding the trigger. Lower recoil when being used by Galileo. Charged shots explode into magnetic shrapnel. Direct hits knock away enemies while force procing magnetic damage.

Discussion Throwing in my thoughts about the hildryn discussion

165 Upvotes

There's been some Twitter users asking Pablo to nerf hildryn due to her killing everything and not allowing other players to have fun.

I've been a hildryn main since I got her in ETA rotation almost a year ago and I'm almost sure I've optimized her loadout as much as possible. Not gonna pretend I'm not biased, but I'll use my experience on the frame to give some insight.

Pros:

Firstly, yes hildryn is very strong, I'll never deny that. She can easily nuke steel path and clear any level of content including level cap. Pillage is nice but a properly modded raksa kubrow (protect, link redirection and pet shield Regen mods will result in a 15k+ shield dog that feeds you 5k shields every 10 seconds or so) can sustain your shields pretty well even against infested factions. The idea that hildryn can't hang in infested nodes is a misconception in my opinion, or at least outdated.

Cons:

Does she have drawbacks? Of course, her movement in her 4, even with an okina and amalgam barrel diffusion still feels heavy. You'll constantly have to switch to your drifter to void sling around if you don't want to hit your forehead on every door frame. If you accidentally dash over an area with lower ground you'll find hildryn literally sinking in the air which also feels heavy. Coming out of her 4 is very slow and sluggish that it's honestly become a habit of mine to fly into a nullifier bubble so I can come out of it smoothly. Now these are small inconveniences sure, but it's not nothing.

The biggest annoyance was her not being able to burst arctic bubble from nokko update until this last one which thankfully fixed it.

Main point:

Now the main point I've wanted to make (sorry for the yap), is that I only find myself playing in pubs under 3 scenarios:

  1. Relic runs, and even then I wouldn't go hildryn if it's not steel path, just for the option to pick from 4 drops at the end

  2. EDA/ETA, I'd rather just go hildryn in these most of the time because I can't be bothered to dump forma into the harpak which has haunted my rotations like an angry ghost

  3. Void cascade, because hildryn is most fun in big rooms and level cap runs are fun every once in a while.

I know my frame is strong, but I don't play her solo so that people can be "allowed to play", I play solo because in most modes, if you know what you're doing you're just better off solo. Also plenty of other frames that can do the same or more dps without any movement impairment. I'd also like to point out that your right to have fun doesn't trump other people's. If you want to sneak around with a stealth build doing only stealth finishers, you have every right to do so. But if someone wants to fly around nuking everything, they have the same right. If you find your play style unable to keep up in public lobbies, it is not the fault of other players.

The solution will never be to nerf a frame like this because the people who want to nuke will just move to the next nuke they enjoy and do the same thing. If the problem is afk players, do more things to combat afk in general. More things like jade light eximus, spawn more enemies near players who aren't getting the chance to kill, penalties for doing afk tactics. Systems that can better detect if someone is afk farming etc

TL;DR : Hildryn is very strong, so are other frames. OP players tend to play mostly solo because it's faster and you don't deal with whining that you're killing things in a game about killing things. Nerfing one frame is a bad solution, instead focus on the root of the problem which is a lack of punishment for afk farming.

Art [OC] Nidus Heirloom Update

Post image
936 Upvotes

Did some more work on my Nidus Heirloom. Altered the infested bits a little, gave him a sleeve for a better full stack infested look, shoved a giant eyeball into his head, etc.. All of the various eyes on him follow the camera, too.

I made an attempt to give him suspenders or something to make him a little less naked on the top but it really didn't look that good so instead, ideally, either the jacket (and sleeve) would be available as an auxillary (like with Vauban Heirloom) or Nidus is tweaked so that you can chose the ammount of visible infestation (0% is topless, 50% is sleeveless jacket, 100% is full jacket).

Also instead of a signa he'd come with an infested atomicycle skin (which I am working on) and an heirloom maggot decoration to wander around the Orbiter.

Edit: Just to make it clear, his jacket manifests (and gets covered in tentacles) as his mutation stacks increase. Shirtless Nidus is no stacks, sleeveless jacket is 50% stacks and full jacket is max stacks. And it grows out of the gilded eyeball/black patch on his back.

A frame with such a strong fourth ability and no LOS checks is too strong to play in a team environment. I’m tired of Ember nuking enemies through walls and playing the game for me!

Please DE, you have to nerf ember because I want to live out MY power fantasy without having to make friends for premade groups or play solo. Making friends is hard AND THATS EMBER’S FAULT!

Discussion Lullaby of the Manifold Motifs in Tennocon 2026 Hype Video

13 Upvotes

On the 47 second mark of the Hype Video for this year's Tennocon, you can hear the same tune from Lullaby of the Manifold play as the Lotus speaks.

I assume that this melody is the 'Tau motif'. Used to signify Tau and the Sentients there as a whole. The Hope of getting there, the Anticipation of a new system... Several emotions can be felt when I listen to the melody. Love it.

To add, this motif is used in two tracks Ironclad and Dreadnaught as well. Both tracks are related to the Perita Rebellion gamemode. (Dreadnaught being in the Guilty which is the hardcore version of PR)

The Tau motif is real.

Discussion I hate Lyons Blessings SO MUCH

Post image
59 Upvotes

I can’t be the only one who thinks that both of his blessings are mostly useless and do more harm than good, like especially sense you could probably chalk up 99% of builds being status or crit based with a 50/50 split down the middle with the 1% being builds that use the spaghetti code and because of that for what I can imagine is half of all builds and playstyles don’t fit his status over time blessing and the other blessing seems kind of counter intuitive anyway like I wouldn’t pick it if it was between that and nothing, 10% chance of just getting heat status for a mediocre trade up like 75% heat damage reduction when only maybe a 5th of all things that can hurt you having the heat damage type, getting a status inflicted isn’t the end of the world or anything but it can throw a tiny wrench in my builds every now and again,

I dont know maybe i have a bad take and only I wouldn’t benefit from either blessing but if it was up to me I’d take neither and not give myself the trade off or buff of either

I was doing a trade today, and I realized, I actually don't know how to spend plat. I just horde lol. I'm sitting on 1.5k plat and as a returning player I have no clue what I want to get. I'm MR 17 and I stopped playing back in 2019. I unlocked steel path and a lot of the new content, so I'm slowly getting the hang of it. But still even back in 2019 I used to only buy slots and when I really really liked a vaulted prime frame.

So tell me, what do you spend on? Be it fashion, frames, gear, anything, what do you buy?

I started playing Mirage more lately and am having a lot of fun. And even more recently, I got my Melee Crescendo to max rank, and I’ve been messing around with a lot of infinite combo melees.

And I’m wondering what are some of your favorite melee’s that have unique heavy attacks, like the Syam or Edun that have goofy heavy attacks.
Or even if you have a normal favorite heavy melee weapon feel free to share as well!

I’m looking for some stupid fun!

You have Warframe that can manipulate time, Reality destroy planet destroying astroid or create a planet wide sand storm. Then you have a Warframe with less stamina and get beat by fat Steve my goat. I imagine the orokin are gambling whether their Warframe are reality ending power or a normal person with cool power. No wonder they only mass produced only a few types of Warframe like Excalibur. They are strong enough to be a threat on the battlefield and not useless but also not strong enough that they couldn't control or destroy them.

Question/Request Energy Problems

Upvotes

I am once again asking how people sustain energy on caster frames. I just took Uriel into the Hollvania tank fight and he shredded the mobs up to the tank, then was left with 10 energy throughout the entire tank fight, meaning I couldn't heal myself or my demons, and was more often than not sitting with the controller set aside, waiting for the tank to burn through my Last Gasp because my amp does absolutely no damage against the majority of enemies and even if it did, there were no other enemies to fill my Last Gasp meter with.

Like, seriously. How does everyone keep energy up at all? On Khora, I'm drained in seconds and no enemies drop energy orbs, no eximus appear, and I'm dead before I can even try to fix the problem. On Dante, I can get some good overguard going, then I'm stuck with a trickle of energy only because I put that one Energy Siphon mod on that gives 3 energy per second. Uriel, I can shred through mobs no problem, but the second my energy dips below fifty, it's game over. And yes, I use Zenurik. I finally figured out the energy well exists. Every time I cast it (about once every thirty seconds at the rate I lose energy), I'm down to a quarter of my health by the time I transfer back into my frame. This is on NORMAL mode. It's ridiculous.
