if anything it could hit you in your data cap if you have one but you can leave it at 160p or chat only to minimize that.

did you get banned from poe? someone in the thread said you did but i figured you just got bored of looking for flask macro workarounds

my new laptop can run this well instead of struggling with 30fps so im trying it again. bouncing all over the place at such a lovely variable framerate was actually making me motion sick i think.

anyway, i bound crouch to q which made sliding and diving way smoother. any other suggestions for keybinds?

also is there a daily limit to these twitch drops?

If your mouse has a side button try that out for crouching. It feels very natural to me.

Okay not everything but it's a Very Strong mod with a wide range of applications. Mag and Volt can both leverage their ability to generate shitloads of overshields to become Extremely Swole with it, as can Harrow. It pretty much does what you'd expect on frames that are already tanky, but the thing that makes it genuinely exciting imo is that the DR works on shields. Thus why it makes the aforementioned frames so much better.

Ah, OK, that's a good point, I never use Mag since she's squishy and this would be rad to add. I wasn't going to level it up if all it did was make unkillable frames like Inaros even more unkillable, but it's exciting it makes shields good.

It's great, put it on any frame that can survive more than one hit. It works on shields so frames like Harrow or Mag who can generate overshields will get a lot of EHP out of it. It's also good if you can heal, as the damage resist multiplies the effectiveness of healing. Tanky frames like Oberon, Inaros, Nidus or Valkyr become unkillable.

A goon pointed it out for eidolons, and so far it seems to be making a noticeable difference in my surviveability for frames I need to be in more often.

Maybe hold off on leveling it. That only increases the resistance gain rate, not the total resistance earned.

Also, please done sleep on Mag. She's so, SO useful.

It's amazing on frames that have some sort of EHP pool healing. Unlike all other methods, that involves shields.

You get hit a bunch, you heal your health/shields and now suddenly you're invincible because you have 90% DR and a full pool of EHP.

Think they just broke the succ a while ago, either intentionally or not. Power Strength does help you pull dudes into bubbles though.

Aw, goddamnit. I searched around and apparently putting 2 bubbles on top of each other will increase the pull rate, but getting enemies to stack up like that is...tricky at best.

I remember way back when I couldn't tell most frames apart, and seeing Nidus' tenctacle-grab move. I initially thought that Mag's magnetize bubbles did something similar, and was profoundly disappointed when it just kind of nudged them together instead of crushing them together in a massive floating ball.

I really wish that Mag's bubbles were tweaked. They're still a great defensive move, since they block 100% of incoming fire, but they don't quite behave as advertised. I'd love it if it were changed, or they released a new augment that did any one of the following.
  • Make the 'pull' effect continue even after the initial target dies, as long as there is an enemy in the bubble, increase it's pull strength. Enemies should at least be slowed if they walk into the bubble, faster enemies could break free, but slower, heavier enemies should not.
  • Allow Mag to cast the bubbles freely on the ground, not requiring a specific target.
  • Make the pull effect more similar to Nidus' tentacle-monster thing, crushing enemies together in a writhing mass. Make the duration much shorter, in that case, but still. That would be massively satisfying.
  • Recasting Magnetize on an existing bubble increases it's pull strength/radius. Does not affect duration.

I still love using mag, and Magnetize is very useful as is, but it still feels a little anemic.

I would also REALLY like it if they gave Mag an energy generating mechanic that wasn't completely unusuable like the one she has right now.
It's criminal for such an energy hungry frame to not have any energy generation.

Protect children from "Safe Schools" social engineering. Shame!

Mag is my favourite to a point where I bought one of her Tennogen skins I usually end sitting inside her bubble and pulling dudes into it. One issue I have with goons always using corrosive projection (this isn't to cause a fight, it's more of a joke) is I can't win everything by just pressing 3 with Mag. :argh:

I didn't get banned no, just bored. I did find flask macro workarounds too. I had some sweet eye-tracking going for that game as well that helped my wrist, too bad this game isn't as eye-tracker friendly. I feel like Tony Stark with that poo poo, just gazing at things to attack and loot.

edit: There, I set them straight.

Enemy levels are like,

21-40: still easy but with a little tooth
41-60: light to moderate challenge
61-80: proper threatening
81-100+: get the gently caress in

Ignore levels, just keep throwing yourself into missions until you hit a wall, then jam more forma into your gear and Endo into your mods. Your combat effectiveness is dependant on skill and mods, not levels. There's no consequences for failure, so just keep trying.

Considering the lack of PVP, that the exploit didn't get you plat or anything you'd buy with plat (rivens,cosmetics,potatoes,etc) and the speed NSO and ESO can level you anyway.... it seems a weird thing to permaban over.

It does gives you a thing that you can buy with plat. It's practically a super Affinity Booster, no?

@permabans - It's a very DE move to make. That said, I don't remember anyone ever getting banned for vaultjacking or many of the older economy-altering exploits that we enjoyed back in the day.

@twitchdrops - every newer player should keep brackethouse with 2 streams up in a chrome window 24/7, free potatoed nidus is HUGE because his quest is pretty cancerous to slog through if you're unlucky, and he's a top-tier frame

warframe is a f2p game and de is pretty open that there's certain concessions to be made because of that, and needing to power through leveling stuff, sometimes multiple times if you want, is part of the core 'experience' so players don't burn out after a week

so it's not entirely surprising they would take such a hard stance on people deliberately going out of their way to use such a thing. i'm curious if there'll be any chances for those banned to appeal but who knows.

You equip it to your melee weapons under the appearance menu and it just sorta dangles from the hilt. DE really loved them for a bit, made a bunch, and still makes new ones occasionally. I've never seen any player who ever actually gave a poo poo about sugatras.

I think that one is a cape but for your weapons. It appears on your melee weapons like little flags, for example. Check appearance in Arsenal.

His 2 makes him pretty invincible from the get-go and Index isn't that hard.
