That's how it seemed to me, I hope that's how it is

Per-faction sounds ideal and fits with the Bane mods, which I think sit on the cusp of, "fine, I'll change my loadout for this mission." Some people don't like it, but it's at least a tolerable feature. If every planet had different resistances, the sheer amount of swapping would put most everyone in the same position: throwing together a generic loadout and never thinking about it again. EDIT: Based on the following from the workshop: "Within a Faction, the Status Type Resistances and Weaknesses can vary based on Location. For example, regular Grineer may have different Resistances and Weaknesses than Kuva Grineer." It looks like it is (almost) per-planet, perhaps with the factions having a general theme. So we're back to re-modding for (almost) every planet. GG.

This reminds me of borderlands, blue health use shock yellow health use corrosive red health use fire, I presumed this was how simple warframe would be after starting it, this is a better change than before imo

They showed some UI that allowed swapping loadout or Config slots from navigation. If we don't have to run back to the arsenal every time it becomes close to tolerable.

Yeah he pulled this entire planet thing out of his ass.

Yes, and for me I think that's the most interesting change. Is it worth adding magnetic damage somewhere in my kit to deal with eximus units, and how effective is it? That's what I want to check out.

Good because my opticir vandal magnetic dmg was useless against grineer

this is going to be interesting. Cuz with kuva/tenet weapons you can get free magnetic status from progenitor, mainly for the status effect against overguard, and just build like normal (heat corrosive for example) Personally i have a cold progen tenet flux rifle right now, might switch back to magnetic. Itll also help with galvanized aptitude bonus damage

Yeah I used to always overlook mag damage but with this change I feel like it could be worth using now…..

Doesn’t that mean rhinoskin is essentially nullified?

Sure, sure - modding for each and every faction is somthing one can do, but then again it won't really matter when you're shooting them with the equivalentof a semi-truck hitting a man straight in the testicles. Let's just see how this works out

I feel like modding for different factions was always a vision tbh. They just made it extremely annoying and taxing. So much that we have metas that involve bypassing or stripping said defenses so that basically any and all damage will work. Shields? Toxin viral. Armor? Heat/corrosive viral. With these changes it makes it so that certain weapons that have certain physical damage can shine more so than they have in the past. And that they require little buildcrafting to make them borderline effective. That doesn't mean deep crafting won't be as effective as it is now. But there's far less margin for error or confusion. You could technically not even have separate mod load outs for weapons. But now have weapons that are effective for a specific faction. It'll increase the diversity of weapons at play without making them weaker. Imo these changes will be much more impactful than I think people are giving it credit for

I can confirm. This is a different video.

Yeah, a video made entirely of misinformation and malformed opinions IS pretty different, and hugely disappointing.

But we love it nonetheless

@@Ariamaki Care to elaborate?

I know I'm an old monster hunter fan because when they described it i went "Ah, like *slime* from monster hunter" it has not been called slime in ten years lmao

@@Linzolle cause more monsters than our slimy boi got access to it since then, yea

Things..just..got out hand...

Truth is I probably won't experiment with weapon builds outside of blast, I already have my hound spreading corrosive, puncture, cold, radiation, magnetic (on some abilities), and electricity (on some abilities), I just don't see a reason to change my weapon off of viral unless I'm struggling with resistances, which I'm usually not.

I hope so because corrosive is my main in most cases and sometimes viral. Also with so many reworks and nerfs i am already tired changing my builds over and over, and if those changes now are going to be big... I seeing my self i am going to completely uninstall Warframe once and for all, for first time in my 8 years on game. Imo better they should spend some time to rework all those boring repeatable missions and bring us some new mission types with more complex mechanics

Cloned flesh has 50% DR and Corpus flesh has 25% DR

it forces cold procs and the radial has blast, so it'll probably be really good for crowd control with the full freeze, and since the radial doesnt do the greatest damage, the blast changes will be irrelevant

Aoe spam freeze that increases crit dmg and applys blast that you can then sweep your melee on. Will probs be really good next update.

@@cephalonrevan2546 yeah especially using my sevagoths reap ability and reap augment, think epitath gonna be more op primer then before.

@@twoheadedgiantgaming7029 welp epitath gonna be even more better primer then, cool.

And even at lower level steel path, Gas is still incredibly good without armour strip, especially if you just, pump as much base damage into it as possible. Only time I've ever really felt the need to pull out my armour strip on my preferred gas builds is endless SP stuff.

Also, after the blast changes, making a blast sniper will be interesting

That's the sad part for sure. As much I think the changes are probably for the best, it just instantly invalidates a decade of videos, discussion, and knowledge

Isn't that the whole point? Pablo has repeated multiple times over and over that they won't try to replace the meta, and instead enable other damage types to compete with the meta. Otherwise if you just make a new combination of damage better than Viral/Slash it solves absolutely nothing since all builds will just use that new damage type anyway. Diversify, not replace. If anything, Slash is already losing its best advantage of infinite scaling since armor stops scaling past a certain point.

@DawnAfternoon Except NY not changing these things, you also solve absolutely nothing because why bother using the other damage types if the meta is still the meta. So again, why would we want to use the new magnetic changes if ignoring it and sticking with toxin is still the nest option? Why use blast or cold if ignoring armour with viral slash is still best? That's my point. What's the point in making these damage type changes, if they're just going to be ignored?

@@cyanide7270 Again, to bring other damage types up, not to replace. Slash already loses their best feature of infinite scaling due to armor capping. Napkin math shows about 6-10x eDPS increase for all non-slash damage without any armor strip. Possibly a lot more for Corrosive because you get an additional 6x multiplier ontop of the previous 6-10x. We also can't say much about Blast yet except that we don't know the % of the number, if it's about 50% AoE damage at max stacks its a significant status worth building.

Dont say that pls im farming topaz for blastgate😢😢

This didn't age well

Won't surprise me, going to need to make notes in the wiki enemy pages of X enemy had X health,shield and armor types prior to patch X

Or: armored Corpus have the same weaknesses as their unarmored kin, but with the damage resistance of armor on top. Not sure why "the sky is falling" was your first reaction here.

@@chaosgyro Well, for example - Is Radiation damage still gonna have a dmg bonus vs alloy armour, or is becoming the next magnetic in terms of usefullness?

@Alpha.Phenix Radiation is likely to be remain the direct damage of choice against the Murmur, and taken otherwise because of a moderately beneficial CC status. It may also remain the damage of choice for most bosses just like it is now.

How is this a nerf?

What nerf?
