[2020] SWITCH Heart of Deimos: Hotfix #2

Hotfix #2

In an attempt to keep these notes spoiler free you may notice some less-descriptive language than usual - thank you for your diligent reporting!

Scintillant Changes:

General note re: Scintillant! We discussed it earlier on in the week, and realized the Scintillant description was too vague in terms of other methods to acquire it and updated its description in the last Hotfix. We ran stats and the amount collected was too low, which is widely accepted from the community to be the case. While we all start with baseline ‘0’ for new Updates, this Resource is an outlier in how slowly it’s being accrued, which is to say current pacing not our intention. They should feel like a revised Cetus Wisp, but when we compared the two, and considering more people are playing Heart of Deimos and how many Scintillant are needed, they were lower to a degree that doesn’t make sense with their hookup. Here is how we are fixing that today: 

• Fixed issues with being able to pick up Scintillant within the Vault environments. 
• Increased the spawn chance of Scintillant within Vault environments. 
• Removed Scintillant as one of the Weapons Entrati members ‘Parts Requisition’ Tasks.
• Added a slight glow effect to the Scintillant to increase visibility.
• Increased the audio loop sound effect when a Scintillant is nearby. 

Changes:

• Enabled proper Necarloid items to be a free Reward for hitting Rank 3. 

Fixes:

• Fixed Necramech drops falling through the floor when dropped, as reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1218284-necramech-parts-are-falling-through-the-ground/Fixed
• Fixed Ally Necramechs interfering with Operator Void Dashing and Transference, as reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1216743-frequently-cant-void-dash-on-deimos/
• Fixed Xaku’s The Vast Untime not dealing damage, granting speed boost, or leaving Xaku in their skeletal form, as reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1218029-xakus-4th-ability-not-working/
• Fixed Chroma Immortal skin missing his tail. Pin the Tail on the Dragon. 
• Fixed a couple cases of missing Icons for Weapons in the EOM screen. 
• Fixed certain Entrati members dialogue audio cutting out during Heart of Deimos quest: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1216497-heart-of-deimos-daughters-speech-glitches-fixed/
• Fixed Ally Necramechs not always spawning during Vome Cycle. 
• Missed notes from Hotfix #1: 
  • Fixed certain Entrati members dialogue audio cutting out during Heart of Deimos quest: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1216497-heart-of-deimos-daughters-speech-glitches-fixed/
  • Fixed cases of players unable to start Vor’s Prize after completing the tutorial.
    • This also unblurs the ‘Vor’s Prize’ Quest entry for those who skipped it way back in the day.

As noted in last night's Hotfix, we have started running a script to refund anyone who ranked up in the Entrati Syndicate before we changed it to a maximum of 1 Entrati Token type per rank (i.e 1x Conservation + 1x Fishing).
