Warframe saryn update#

And no, this does not belong into feedback since DE isn't interested in rework suggestions - I'm just curious what you, other players, would think of my ideas. Enemies withing 7 meters of the destination are vulnerable to finishers.īlade Storm: Can be recast while clones are still attacking. Teleport: 10 meter instant teleportation (like Worm Hole), costs 5 energy. Smoke Screen: Can now be recast while already active. Shuriken: Is now a small cone (like Banish), enemies hit cannot move for 7 seconds, also status effects do not expire during this time.

It also creates more interesting tradeoffs in modding, as both range and duration will be important for AoE damage, and strength for buffs / status effects. The 'weapon buffing' playstyle is unaffected apart from minor changes (potentially less recasting of buffs, and higher Viral status chance on Miasma). There are new Incarnon Geneses, Arcanes, and Cosmetics which can all be used across Warframe: INCARNON GENESES: Imbue your weapons with the power of the Void, unlocking specialized upgrades.

Warframe saryn update#

It also would not be overpowered, abilities with effective cooldowns never are in Warframe (see Lavos). The Duviri Paradox update comes with far more to discover beyond the bounds of Dominus Thrax’ imagined reality. This creates a streamlined Saryn - no more passive damage and ability spam, but big results on Miasma casts, the frequency of which you are able to precisely balance. Now, as an added benefit (and sort of failsafe in case the ability synergy is broken via the helminth), Sarycin 'wasted' (gain when already at 100%, in other words forgoing/delaying the map clear) should increase the timer on buffs from Saryns abilities (Toxic Lash, Venom Dose, and the speed boost from Molt). This would mean before mods, Sarycin reaches 100% every 60-40 seconds, depending on enemy density. So, how frequent do we want Saryn to wipe the map? I'd say every 20-30 seconds is fine. Due to Narrow Minded reducing the important stat of ability range we should balance Sarycin gain around the 200% ability duration mark. To keep it simple, we will handle Sarycin in percentage - the maximum capacity is 100% and results in guaranteed oneshots (note that there is no issue with Reave oneshotting important targets, so it won't be a concern here either).įor flavour reasons, we want Sarycin to accumulate faster with more Spore-infected targets (with diminishing returns so it isn't a major factor for balance - the difference between 10 and 20 targets should be negligible), and for balance reasons, we want Sarycin gain to scale with ability duration. 200% Viral status chance (after the damage is dealt).īy choosing the right value for Sarycin generation, we will be able to determine the frequency with which Saryn can clear the map. Miasma also deals no damage by default, but converts accumulated Sarycin into 'health loss' (similar to Reave).

Spores deal no damage, but accumulate 'Sarycin' over time (repurposed Spore damage counter). So how do we nerf 1 while keeping Saryn's identity? Simple, we reduce the frequency with which Saryn can wipe the map: Toxic Lash and Corrosive procs merely give you more weapon options. There is no issue with 2, if you point a weapon at something you can kill it, Saryn or not. Kill tough enemies with weapons (but not abilities). Kill weak enemies in a very convenient and effective manner.
