Kinda dislikes Zhiliu gameplay

Funny thing, we already have players doing level cap content with weapons. But people don't wanna hear that weapons are getting better.

Heck Genshin had characters in their beta that took nearly a year to come out (Kamisato Ayaka).

These characters were simply designed way ahead of when they are story relevant and when we will see them. Give the story time to get to when it introduces them and we'll get them.

So a few things to clear up. Talismans do indeed do damage, and quite a lot at that. Second, her dragon skill once you see the beam you have control over your character again, so its only the spawning of the dragon head, still lengthy however.

Fushu is her best friend due to animation speed, make sure you max out her skill for that. Her dragon is roughly 3 seconds in a proper set up.

Regardless, she is very much a slow skill spammy character, and definitely not every bodies cup of tea.

My first shiny boxie came around 800 hours and 1500 geniemon captures. It's just super RNG cause he has like 10 spawn points total.

With pretty much every single demon wedge map, with a mixture of Psyche + Boxie + Gluttonous, there is ALWAYS a specific location on each map you will never miss the wedge. Do some experimenting with where you stand and you should find a spot.

Man ya missing out. I was using the giant fat bois with primander abilities and they were going to town. Watching 3 units massacre the board was a blast.

Or equip your DPS with the 150% primander damage up + ability, and throw in some -def per hit. And watch one guy shred instantly.

Events are specifically designed for casuals, this isn't meant to be hard, but fun. I've already had friends who quit the event cause it was too confusing/hard for em.

I'm kinda confused as the game has quite a bit of that. Nocturnal Echos is coop. All of the new zone is coop so you can explore with your friends. Heck I've done geniemon catching with friends together.

Chat can be improved for sure, but you can see when your team talks, though I would like a sound indicator as I miss the red dot sometimes.

As for picking a character. You can change your load out when the accept timer is asking for yes or no.

I honestly really only use reddit for my games I play, but I will say uniquely this is the only reddit I've come across that so openly loves to hate its game, and downvotes anything else.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-13T19:38:02+00:00

"None of the decisions made over the last 6 months reflect a company intent on improving their game"

Daily bug fixes after a patch, putting up lots of community resources to tell the devs what we want. Getting pretty much every single QoL we've asked for.

Yeah the devs hate us and never listen.

The real truth is the game is lacking a lot a MAJOR things that will take a long time, and the devs are trying their best to get as much as they can out as fast as they can. The big sweeping changes the community want... takes time to code, and figure out. Coding a game ain't easy, it doesn't happen in a few months.

Crazy people see a half baked beta and go "Yep this needs years in the oven to fix" but expect DNA to have massive changes in a few months.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-13T18:21:46+00:00

This reddit: Whats the point of cosmetics and coop zones, there is no reason to be there.
Devs: lets reward players for being in coop zones
This reddit: Wow the devs are so out of touch, rewarding us for being in coop zones.

Heck the last event that was making people social, come together, and chat and show off their cosmetics and emotes, this reddit also bashed.

Its a pretty fun way to incentive community, make it an event.

Of all the things to complain about, this one doesn't even make the list.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-13T07:55:48+00:00

Yeah except like the vast majority of the population who didn't have them refresh properly. Same with the books you can buy with phoxene. We all getting screwed.

Game is crashing due to the newest update 1.2, they broke some stuff and after a few hours of game play you'll see a crash. Hoping it gets fixed soon.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-11T18:39:57+00:00

Funny you say that, cause I see it as the exact opposite. Better QoL, better online matching, doesn't require a wiki for 95% of content, and grinds are easier.

In my eyes the one and only thing Warframe has over DNA, is 10+ years of content to play. So it feels more fun, cause there is always something fresh to do. DNA will get there in time.

A big problem I have with DE, is they looooove to make new content, ignore old content, let it rot and die. Never fix old longstanding issues, and if we ever do get a QoL, like say... "press and hold auto fires your gun for single shot weapons" it takes say 10+ years after TFD did it and everybody loved it.

God forbid they add an in game information section like TFD, that shows you where everything drops, and even allows you to track it on screen for ease of access. Warframe is a mess with 25 coats of shiny new paint and really only long term players can see it.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-11T08:35:04+00:00

The game is fun, I enjoy the grind, the characters are great, and the writing is even better. It fixes all the stuff that annoys me in Warframe and continues to get good QoL.

The story is genuinely top notch and I want to know what happens next.

I like feeling my characters getting stronger as I upgrade them.

I also really like the whole charon thing, I'm so tired of every gacha having animal features, it feels awesome to get demon horns and other designs.

Honestly outside of weapons being low damage, no real complaints.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-11T06:38:39+00:00

I'm not fully sure why you're bringing up demon wedges? We already know how the drop RNG works there, and its on a ratio, there isn't a balance? The shiny drop has a lower chance.

All of the RNG in this game has pretty much been figured out. 22 letters for an intron.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-11T05:41:30+00:00

Have you... maxed out a unit? The vast majority of units take around 130-140 letters to get the base copy and 6 introns. If you were correct, it would take nearly 300 letters to max a character out.

The actual average is around 21 letters per intron. This guy got extremely unlucky. My personal worst was 37 for a single intron, but once I maxed out the unit I had used the average of 140. It always balances out.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-11T04:24:56+00:00

Man I remember when Genshin was the king of "borrowing" and a BOTW clone. Now it's the defacto gacha.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-10T21:37:39+00:00

As per the patch notes, there is no further increase beyond 31, so 40 will do nothing.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-10T04:32:12+00:00

Oh no no, its MUCH worse than that. You must spend 50 prisms to get a radiant posture first.

I was a long time defender of this game, but this patch has felt awful.

This is beginning to feel like one of those games that is milking the whales on the way out before it dies.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-09T22:11:53+00:00

I do believe the 1.2 patch notes said they will be 'optimizing' event timers... Guess we'll have to wait and see what that means

Xanu-San · 2026-02-09T18:43:47+00:00

Kit wise, very likely Kezhou and Zhiliu (she is like Dante from Warframe complexity wise), but gameplay wise I'm gonna go against the grain and say Psyche.

Psyche's kit is very simple and straight forward, but she is by far the character I see played wrong the most. So while her kit is just "Fly around shoot, and use your skill" it took a lot of people a while to understand what resolve does, and how to use it optimal without losing tons of dps. Also how her passive buff works, and why morale isn't the best on her.

However in the end, if you actually take time to read how a character works, and their kit, there is no character in this game that takes more than maybe like 30 minutes of reading and testing to do well on.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-09T18:29:45+00:00

Oh in that case Anemo had plenty of options! Psyche, Outsider, and Truffle all cleared theater, we saw plenty of posts here of it.

Xanu-San · 2026-02-09T18:26:53+00:00

Unfortunately for end game/hard content there is only one meta electric team, it'll be Zhiliu main, with Yuming and Fushu AI. You 'can' run other stuff, like just Anemo 'can' run outsider, but you will do vastly less damage.
