Tenno,
Update 30.9.0 is coming on November 11th to All Platforms.
This video walks you through what to expect, and this written post provides a Update breakdown! Get comfy Dreamers!
Without question, The New War is our biggest priority for 2021 and is in full development swing. But just before The New War comes Update 30.9.0! This Update will be a Mainline for all platforms. It is largely Quality of Life and Bug fixes, with a groundwork for a Prime Vault style event that we alluded to in a prior Devstream. This will be the last Update before The New War (Emergency Hotfixes not withstanding). It also closes off the year with one of many QOL focused Updates this year. Between completely reworking Railjack at the beginning of the year, tying more lore into the Proxima Regions, and finally connecting all things Adversaries (Liches/Sisters) together with Railjack, we’re seeing things really come together with our ‘rework and reconnect’ mindset. We also spent time this year working on ‘The Arsenal Divide’ among many other QOL driven updates.
This year likely felt a little weird - and not just because we’re still working from home for our 19th month straight. We (finally) released a lot of things that were perhaps revealed too early in hindsight. For us, overcoming our backlog of announcements and turning them into releases has been a priority this year, in addition to a larger ratio of reviews and Quality of Life content in the game. This has likely been particularly challenging for veteran players who may appreciate the motivations behind the changes, but are itching for something new or challenging to do (or in the case of content creators, cover). In many cases, veterans are yearning for that ‘something’ to release as ‘The New War’, which we will discuss in the coming weeks. It is indeed the most exciting story quest in Warframe history, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
But first! Update 30.9.0
In this Update you can expect the following:
- The much requested Forma Quality of Life changes!
This included everything covered in our original Dev Workshop, as well as the addition of opening up Sorties and other Level 30 Warframe restricted content to Mastery Rank 30+ players who have Forma installed!
- New Warframe Augments!
Xaku, Lavos, and Trinity receive Augments on November 11!
There’s more - too much to cover in this post, so we’ve written additional Workshops:
Early Player Changes.
Adding a ‘Tenno Guide’ and an effort toward reducing the early-game time and resource demands. Necramech and Railjack acquisition improvements!
Dojo & Decoration Changes
Adding a Spawn item feature, Basic/Advanced Decorating Modes, and much more!
And if you’re looking for ‘What to do in November’ while you wait for The New War:
See here! Alerts and ‘The Story so Far’ abound all month long!
And of course, if you’re wondering how to prepare for The New War?
- Ensure your Codex is in the 'To be Continued' state for 'The New War' Codex Quest entry!
- Own a Necramech and a Railjack! We’re making it easier to do this soon, and you’ve got time. Spread the word, Tenno! The New War means battle is on - gear up!
See you November 11th, Tenno!
Edit:
Augment Information:
We have 4 new Augments in the works -- 2 for Xaku, and 1 each for Lavos and Trinity!
Lavos - Ophidian Bite
Change to reduce cooldown of all Abilities by (X) seconds for hitting a cluster of enemies (exact number TBD), while also adding an ability range buff for Ophidian Bite.
Xaku - Grasp Of Lohk
When a stolen weapon deals damage to a target affected by an ability of The Lost, Xaku heals for HP.
Xaku - The Lost
Casting a Lost ability increases the power strength of The Lost by a certain % and will stack. Casting the same lost ability twice in a row resets the bonus.
Trinity - Blessing
Gain ranged (primary/secondary weapon) Crit Chance % for each % you heal on your allies. On refresh it adds up new value and refreshes the timer.
