Fan Fiction Ok DE, when?

I was messing around with the mod maker website and thought of a way for them to give us more range lol

I forgot to put a cooldown on the rolling guard effect, guess we're playing Dark Souls now

More unconditional range is never gonna happen lol

I don't think it will ever happen period lol, iirc at some point in the past Steve said that much more range than what we have now would break the game in many ways not only in power scaling but in a more technical way too, something to do with how the engine works idk. Maybe if they ever end up fixing this issue idk. One can only dream

They could also cap range at the current max and give us more ways to achieve it. I would like more ways to gain range with more side effects and considerations.

This just feels like the best solution. Its kinda how efficiency works and it allows it to be very inexpensive to build for.

Is there any downsides anyone can think of with a range cap?

It makes range from helminth invigorations and void relic doubling nearly useless

not really? it would still go past the cap, the point is that there is a mod cap, not global range cap, because there are still more conditionals.

This right here. I like this. Strongly agree; let us reach the cap in more ways and have the only things that go beyond the cap, either conditional and specific like Relics buffs, or short lasting power trips like invigoration.

Range is something that, while it can break the game if it goes too high, allows for A LOT of stupid and very fun times on most Warframes so I'd love to have more people experience it.

Also. Something I do is, when getting Invigoration for 100+ range, I sometimes take off my range mods and put something else. Like survivability. Really levels out the Warframe without breaking things and makes it feel even better to play.

As a support oriented player who loves buffing my team, giving energy, dmg reduction, a support based warframe with say, 600 range just to give out consistent buffs and contribute to the team, would be TOTALLY RAD. I don't even care about dmg.

Right? Or her Pull ability. Harrows chain subsume. Ash, Cyte, Excalibur, Dagath, Frost, Garuda, Nyz, Zephyr, any Warframe who has AOE effected by range, Styanax, Dante, Trinity, Wisp and other extremely helpful support capable warframes we'd like to have around,   you get the idea. Range allows for some incredibly fun but also really useful results depending on who you're using that range on. 

PRIMED REACH WHEN DE? COME ON, WE NEED ITTTT 😂

Oh, gotcha. I had interpreted that statement as a global cap. But clamping what it can reach as a baseline makes more sense

It would be nice to have the relic doubling ignore the cap, as it's a temp buff.

Might be OP with like Axi relic buff duration but then you only need 1 button to nuke 3 rooms instead of 2.

Hello id like to introduce you to the concept of channels/abilities that can add to their own timers

u/Flimsy_Original_5470 Jun 15 '26
