So eventually the obvious choice was made to just let everyone work on what they wanted to do. I genuinely hope Soulframe is going to be a great game.

I’ve always wanted cold in warframe to work the same as it does in Deep Rock Galactic. In DRG, when an enemy is affected by any amount cold, they slow down rather considerably, and when it reaches max buildup, the enemy is frozen solid for a few seconds and take 3 times more damage from everything except for AOE and DOT damage. I wonder if they will so something similar when you apply heat to a frozen enemy. Maybe make the frozen enemy get a blast proc applied to them or something like that.

[@fire_drake12.arc.24]

Magnetic still sucks though. Its effect is only helpful on shielded enemies that have actual health pools. Does nothing to help with enemies that have a fuck ton of shields, or enemies with both since the Magnetic effect is more for preventing regeneration. It should do a bit of a % chunk out of current shields too, to help with getting rid of shields as well.

I've been saying since 2016 that De really should just standardize enemy armor. It'd make balancing things so much easier going forward. What I mean by this is when you see a heavy gunner, it has 60% DR whether it's level 1 or level 5000. All that changes is the health.

[@thatguygamermo]

What if for each weapon you had one load out for each enemy faction. And by selecting a mission it automatically switches to the load out on each weapon that you have set for it. ( or a checkbox is offered to switch it for you ) The bane mods might get used then. Instead of having to go back every time to switch making the load outs once and being able to switch load outs at mission select would cut a lot of friction out. This is assuming the game can do that sort of thing. Not a game dev. But the idea seems good to me

[@Zillarax]

That's a really good idea and perhaps the only thing that would actually work.

[@vaan_]

would rather just have an elegant way to change loadout on the navigator

[@thatonepenguinperson618]

How would it work for crossfire missions though? o_o I think it'd be nice if they added a quick arsenal menu when you clicked the load out button in the navigation menu. All the arsenal UI just really conveniently in front of you without any of the physical transitions or visual models. This would be great for adjusting mods and weapons quickly instead of only being able to set up a bunch of loadouts before hand.

[@johneccher9869]

If Blast goes in that direction, I am really excited to see what will happen. It reminds me of Ratchet Gladiator game, where you could mod your weapon to delay the dmg your weapon does by making the "payload" sticky on the enemy, while also keep firing (delaying that dmg) and stacking everything you were shoting, and in the end the explosion happens delivering all the stacked dmg. Good memories.

I read the minimum threshold armor as being the lowest you can reduce armor too, so it always has an impact. So someone has 3000 armor, the minimum threshold is 750 armor and won't go lower, for example.

[@weaverreaver4448]

I kind of liked the IDEA of the old different types of health, armor, and shield. That being said this was a needed change. It may reduce the uniqueness of the damage system somewhat, but sometimes taking the road less traveled means it's harder to reach the destination. Our destination? Fun town!

My problem with magnetic as a type is, It's only good against like half the EHP of a corpus - They still have flesh after their shields are gone. Unless It helps deal with their flesh, it feels it would probably be better to just continue using Toxin to bypass their shields anyways.

[@crumdogy]

As I understand, the faction resistances and vulnerabilities will apply universally to health, armor, and shields. So if there is no damage bonus for using toxin on corpus, but there is one for magnetic, I wonder if they could be close to equal in time to kill.

[@fire_drake12.arc.24]

Magnetic needs to have a much larger impact on REMOVING shields IMO. I think it should not only make it harder for enemies to regain them, but every time it procs it should strip a percentage off, so guns with a little magnetic can help punch through shields initially too. Since most enemies arent going to live long enough after losing shields to even regain them. Its current effects are basicaly only usefull on shielded bosses.

[@8bitmemorylane166]

Magnetic is and will continue to be effectively redundant as long as you're able to simply bypass shields entirely with toxin for 99.9% of all enemies. This IMHO would need to change in order to give magnetic any relevance, unless DE decide to give magnetic procs some fancy secondary effect (maybe move the bullet attractor effect from void to magnetic?). Best solution would be to let only toxin procs, not direct toxin damage bypass shields, similar to how slash is working against armor currently. Let's see where they'll be going with this...

[@DawnAfternoon]

@@8bitmemorylane166 Honestly? I think Toxin needs to be partially nerfed. Have Toxin bypass 25-50% the damage into the HP, instead of full 100% bypass. This might seem like a nerf, but it will help shield-focused players survive toxin damage too.

[@AnomalyAlter]

Damage rework so severe it skips over multiple version iterations and just rolls out as Damage 9.0 Sidebar, we need custom bullet jump animations! It's something I've been saying for years, and was actually mentioned in a stream(years ago). It is something we do more than walking depending on the player. Something so simple that can have a significant impact on your perception of day to day gameplay. An agile twirl is not befitting of every frame personality.

[@jncp5965]

Magnetic Status Effect could be that Enemy projectiles are stuck in the magnetic field and deal damage to enemies within that field (like a mini mag ability, except it effects the npc as well). And increasing the magnetic stacks make the field larger. Bullets fired from the player could also get a damage buff or additional punch through due to getting pulled into the field.

These enemy resistance type changes sound amazing. I hope they are able to implement them in a way that works well... I remember playing Warframe way back at launch when your different configs on weapons were modded to specifically deal with each faction (Grineer, Corpus, Infested) and was so confused when I finally came back and Viral+Heat was the only meta for everything. I've always been interested in building out different loadouts with a specific set of weapons that would be modded to deal specifically with each faction but all of the varying armor and health types made it hard to develop any kind of consistency. There's so many powerful weapons in the game with interesting mechanics and built in status types. Forcing Viral+Heat on everything just feels bad. It'll be nice to be able to focus more on a weapons innate power and still have it perform well. Looking forward to it.

For the armour strip, i think what they mean is like a minimum armour strip cap. So with numbers, running that 3000 by as a max, a heavy gunner lets say may only ever be stripped down to 1000 armour, a bombard might be to 1200-1500, a lancer down to 500, and a butcher may go down to like 100. So basically you cant ever fully strip an enemy's armour, but you still will get a lot of value from it due to it being more impactful with the new curve not being so weighted one way.

all they need to do to make magnetic good is giving it a constant magnetizing pull effect which can hava a stronger pull based on stacks thats it CC as status

[@nokturnihs]

Hey @brozime you should really suggest to Pablo that he should move the bane mods to "mission mods" - like pull them completely out of the arsenal and instead on the mission screen have a slot at the bottom where that mod only impacts that mission. Huge QoL update, and makes them actually useful enough to use.

[@kingkobra4910]

Corrosive cold will be on improving I see

[@t3hi84n2g]

one thing that they could do to help with the swapping builds thing would be just to let me copy slot a into slot b or slot c so I dont have to keep switching from A to B to make sure im not missing any of the other mods I want. then it just becomes ok so now I just switch these elemental mods and then slot a on this gun is for grineer, slot b is for corpus, etc. and maybe give us 4 instead of 3. There are more than 3 factions, so if I have a build for each faction then I cant have a build that maybe takes the weapon in a different direction like hybrid instead of crit. the gas 'change' really makes one wonder how many of the issues players have could be alleviated by an overhaul of the UI and how the systems get introduced to players to begin with.

[@Illindi]

25:00 - I use loadouts for this. Seriously underrated way of getting the proper gear and frame setups on yhe fly right there in the mission accept screen.

[@Darthmufin]

Technically speaking slash will be getting nerfed indirectly, as enemies will be having a health increase. So you will need to wait for your slash procs to tick over longer to actually kill enemies.

[@nathanchaotic1602]

I really look forward to testing Frost again after the cold changes. He used to be my main years ago and seeing any kind of buff for him would be amazing. Plus with the armor changes it makes me excited to try steel path again.

[@TURBOMIKEIFY]

So glad I came back to this game when Duviri came out. This game has so little real content (story wise), yet has kept me playing for so long.

[@ThePopeOfAwesomeness]

Wonder when we will get a new MIGHTY SEER

[@BaeBunni]

Tau Forged emerald is gonna get a big boost in usage if 98% armor strip isn't basically worthless compared to just complete armor strip on certain enemies. But I think magnetic is technically gonna get a hit depending on how the implement the damage because right now magnetic does 75% damage to shields and the new system is just gonna be a flat 50% bonus. So either the magnetic is gonna take a hit by doing less damage to shields or gonna get a buff by also doing 50% more damage to corpus flesh.

[@Toanleigh]

@10:22 Speaking of the "Star Chart" are there any thought on condensing that? Because truthfully it feels like it spreads the playerbase to thin.

[@Kurono_Alien]

Maybe there could be elemental mods for new players after hitting some type of milestone/junction? Like 5% elemental damage so you can play around with combining without it being obviously supremely strong before you get ACTUAL elemental mods. Just a thought

[@robertharris6092]

I honnestly like the armor nerfs. I litersly replaced harrows 4 with pillage since it works with his kit so well (also saves you from toxin procs) the fact that armor strip is preferable to a ability that gives a massive multiple times increase to weapon damage is crazy.

[@Amaan_OW]

With the armor cap at 27,000 I think a tau corrosive shard on saryn will be ideal compared to 2 normals, given that corrosive damage ignores and is boosted against ferrite armor (at least currently). I suppose we need to see how the new resistances affect this though.

[@TGOwl]

Something that they could do to mitigate the problem of swapping builds I feel would be having a dropdown to see your equipped loadout's configuration (example: you have idk a Tenet Arca Plasmor, Pyrana Prime and Xoris) and swiftly change mod config with a single click for each, or perhaps add a check on the arsenal to determine which config is gonna be used on certain faction missions (example: a little dropdown on the side of the config bar that lists neutral, grineer, corpus, infested, etc) and when you select an option then that option will be applied automatically when enetering the mission. You'd still need to go to the arsenal to swap weapons and mod accordingly with either option, but that'd be a nice QoL no matter which way you go about it. I'd imagine that the problem is not so much about adding the check but rather to make it work during load, but would be nice to see it someday

[@olaspike206]

I don't remember what magnetic currently does but if it was an AOE attraction or tethering effect with a more aggressive grouping on kill based on number of stacks the enemy has could be fun.

[@RazeDee]

That would be fun. Like what they’re doing with cold when it reaches max stacks they freeze but with magnetic, max stack would group them in clusters.

[@vos_is_boss7623]

I started playing again at a great time. Good to see it's still getting love from the devs

[@CookeiCutter]

An "easy" fix for the bane mods would be to make the mods universal (no different mod for primary/secondary/melee), and make a tab like the Parazon tab, where you can equip all of them.

[@DrukenReaps]

I was aware of the resists and such, I think because of you, for a long time but tbh.... I've rarely ever bothered to spec for anything other than getting around armor. I hope the changes to scaling make it worth altering my loadout for different factions. As it is now I typically take armor stripping even in missions where it doesn't do anything xD Just because those things die the same roughly anyways...

[@micheljolicoeur6094]

Thank you for the breakdown, much appreciated.

[@kirkalmeida]

On the subject of enemies being eaiser at level cap, who exactly is going to level cap without striping armour? realistically if you're playing at level cap the enemies don't have armour so if anything the buff they'e getting to health is going to make level cap harder. And it is slightly concerning that now all elemental moda are bane mods so hopefully those qol chances come soon.

[@Miloascape]

I'm new to this game, haven't spent much time in it, but all these updates look great. Thanks for sharing. left a like.

[@turkay1558]

its really simple to fix the QoL issue of constant fiddling with your builds this rework will bring. just allow players to switch their mod configs in the loadout screen.

[@snowpoint720]

Seen a bunch of videos recently. Protea was one of my favorites. Might jump back in for her prime. Haven't played since Khal mission were added. Echoes of the Zarrman? Are Zephyr and Garuda still good? What's your favorite new frame since I left? Past year or so?

[@Glitchy1988]

Weapons come with three configs so maybe while hovering over the mission you can click on suggested damage part and if you have a config that has that elements it auto switches to that config for you and if you don't want to you can just not click it.

[@samuelbulow5291]

I remember seeing some other comments about blast damage buffs similar to the proposed change over the last few months, so I'm pretty sure pablo is floating around comment sections now... 👀 Personally, I'd like something like that plus maybe a status version of puncture's crit effect. Maybe blast literally just causes a small explosion and each stack gives status chance, causing more explosions.

[@KevinShmelvin]

I as thinking instead of swapping the build before mission what if they allowed us to swap builds during the mission. Like swapping to build A B C on the fly. This will probably open up more build variety and strategies to deal with enemies on the fly.

[@Fredongo_]

Cold rework immediately made me think of my status stacked Epitaph, which so happens to have a lot of heat % but also forces cold procs...

[@EvilPineappl]

The semi auto mod could be cool in a lot of ways Body punch only and could be used with explosives Damage boost moderate but was multiplicative with Serration I really hope its at least noticeably stronger than serration, ideally a slight dps boost vs using a fire rate mod

[@TheAssassin409]

if the health type changes are significant enough to make players need to change between builds, I can see faction damage mods become more important. I've never bothered using faction mods or getting the prime faction mods from baro because they are too much of a hassle. but if I have to start swapping between builds anyway.... they really should add quick select buttons for weapon loadouts (A,B,C) in the arsenal menu if they want to do this though.

[@Jonesman64]

I hope gas clouds will actually ignore shields since they're doing toxin damage...

[@Arkdragonman]

Gas anti corpus I’m down for it

[@Zeroydeas]

It's been more than 4 years since Gas applied Toxin damage. Gas clouds do Gas damage; they're not going to change that to bypass shields.

[@blankx15]

The good old gas pre nerf. Can headshot, can crit, can dip with invis and by pass shield.

[@Ambyli]

They just need to make armor and shields act like it does in Divinity 2. Make it a separate healthpool that you need to break down before you hit health. Make armor prevent physical status effects and shields prevent elemental effects or something of the same like (whatever works).

[@hom-sha-bom]

Add a gear item to let you swap builds in mission. Give it a cooldown so you cant just keep swapping between 9 different weapons mid mission, but will fix the need to go to the arsenal constantly

[@Eternally_Ninja]

"Armor minimum threshold" sounds like enemies will no longer be full armor stripped, but instead retain 15-20%DR for being an "armored" enemy type even if you 100% strip the armor. It makes sense in practice, even stripped armor would be better than having no armor at all. EA: A heavy gunner should have more armor than an unarmored infested, even after being armor stripped.

[@AEspiral]

I use cold in every crit build i run, i find it really good. My incarnon Telos Boltor uses both puncture and cold procs (puncture increases crit chance and cold crit damage)

[@NathanTruby]

I'm honestly surprised that Necramechs didn't get some kind of quest to acquire them considering that every other piece of required equipment is acquirable via a quest.

[@azurehelix2269]

Finally Semi-Auto QoL 🙏

[@MageSkeleton]

The only change i would love to see, is the changes Triberous recommended. Change OVERGUARD so it's reduced if effected by a CC ability, but immune to damage abilities. Change Limbo's Cataclysm so nullifiers create a literal "bubble" through it and not just "shut it off." And i'm still waiting for the Panzer Vulp Viral Quills ability to be changed to not conflict with Saryn's spores. i hate how good Revenant is, cause when he makes enemies into thralls most warframe abilities suddenly don't work.

[@Emptylord]

I've really enjoyed Deep Archimedean being hard without excluding half the Warframe roster due to the Armor we've come to expect from Steel Path. I'm so happy that other hard content is now going to be less Armor-focused.

[@unwished8638]

I have a question about the armour changes, with the example being grineer and Corrosive I saw that it doesn’t strip as much armour as now and from how I understand your wording there’s a limit to the minimum armour that can be removed. Does that mean you shouldn’t invents into emerald archon shards because the extra stacks aren’t as impactful/important?
