A reminder; everyone loves a good lore discussion - including to motives, morality and everything in between, but that does not mean that the discussion has to degrade into personal attacks. Keep it civil please folks.

I should note that a full feedback topic will be posted for the rework. I suggest getting a hands-on experience and posting your feedback there, just make sure it is constructive and civil. Given the amount of personal attacks and uncivil discussion going on, I am locking the thread.

Hey folks.

We are absolutely looking into the issue and seeing if we can get it fixed. I will post here when I have something solid to report.

Since the topic has derailed for the majority and it's moved into uncivil territory, it is getting locked.

Since this topic has come full circle several times without constructive discussion, it is getting locked.

I should like to note that people play games for various reasons. When a topic turns to judgement or criticism of a players life or choices, such discussions inevitably turn out to be far from constructive at best and downright abusive at worst. Please keep such discussions constructive and civil.

Thanks.

I want to remind people in this thread to keep your feedback constructive and civil. If it goes down a path of personal insults and derailing, then the thread will be locked.

Thanks.

When Grendel is released, there will be a thread for feedback. I would suggest playing him first and then leaving your thoughts (constructive feedback, please!)

So some notes:

Firstly, thank you for approaching this in a even-handed way.

Secondly, for most cases, context is everything. Some words are used as a stand alone sign of frustration. Other words have no other purpose but to be a descriptor of something or someone else in a disparaging or attacking way. Those words generally will result in a flush or a kick as normal.

Thirdly, if you ever suspect that a situation is not being moderated correctly, then you should open a support ticket. Accidents do happen (clicking on the wrong name for example) and those rare occasions will be corrected when support investigates.

Thank you for your feedback, but this topic is being locked as quite often threads like this become vehicles for other discussions.

Sounds like a connection issue.

Notably though, putting "It's just a joke" on the end of something that will get you moderated does not excuse saying it.

Topic locked.

If you have an issue with the way you have been moderated, then support is the best bet to investigate your issue.

You feedback on notifications has been noted however, and it is a topic of discussion already underway.

I would much prefer a demonstration with a max ranged version of primed reach. That presentation could tell us a lot more that way

I didn't have enough Endo on my public account to max rank it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ wanted to keep the test apples to apples though.

Seen a few replies concerned about the change of Range Mods to weapons such as the Cassowar. With that in mind, I made the following for you to see how things look side-by-side. PLEASE BEAR (NO PUN INTENDED) IN MIND: That things may yet change. This is how it currently appears in the new Melee system.

THE SETUP:

Cassowar
- Prime Reach 7/10 (120% on Public / +2.9 on Dev Build)
- Stance Mod
- No other Mods or Damage / Range Boosters

Sounds great overall. But if you're changing the combo counter, please don't forget about melee combo based abilities like Atlas's Landslide, Khora's Whipclaw, etc. They do not need massive nerfs.

A few folks have mentioned this, so just to quickly address: After the initial ask, the idea is that Warframe powers that are based on the combo counter will still get that benefit, but there will be some balance adjustments, as getting higher multipliers on the combo counter is much, much easier to do now. As of this point, I have no further details on that interaction, sorry!

I don't understand the point of the Guardian Derision changes. Does it not still have a taunt? I actually liked using it and it's the only reason I put any time and effort into my sword and boards. 

As an answer, Guardian Derision will still have it's Taunt mechanic, yes.

 You guys meant "provide" and not "proved" here, right?

Yep! Thanks for the correction!

Ok, so what EXACTLY will happen to this Riven???

Channeling efficiency will got to combo efficiency (you will spend less Combo Counter to perform Heavy Attacks), and Channel Damage becomes Heavy Attack Damage... so that thing is going to hit like a truck, and then hit often, I would assume.

Greetings, Close-Combat Tenno!
 
This rather lengthy Dev Workshop will cover the overall progression with our Melee Rework and some of the changes that you can expect to see when Phase 2 is released in Update 26. Update 26 brings change to Warframe - it iterates on the game and Melee is no exception. For months Phase 1 has been in your hands, and it’s time for Phase 2. What follows is a detailed overview of our design direction and intentions with this new Phase. 

We want you to know how your use of melee and feedback on the systems have helped form Phase 2, and how some changes are included to allow for a more cohesive Melee experience. Our tools made Spin attacks optimal at the cost of the more interesting Melee system, and we’re trying to rectify that overall. 

Previously we made several changes to the Melee system (as detailed in the ...

Someone from support will be in touch with you soon. Thank you for your patience and your civil approach.

We're glad you still like your Excalibur Prime!

Given the lack of discussion topic in the original post and the replies, I am locking the thread however.

Support tries to get to every ticket ASAP. If you haven't been answered yet, then...

...you might need to wait longer. Locking Thread.
