Overall, I find Koumei fairly fun to play, a lot of her kit seems to be focused around priming for CO style mods.

Her 1 can have some issues with where the threads are placed, enemies are able to walk around them if the ability isn't cast in a location which funnels them to the player, or they may stand still and just fire at the player from a distance.

Her 2 is a fun ability, somewhat useless in short missions and completing challenges can be hindered by your team. Challenges seem to be weighted mostly towards airborn kills, wall latches or kills at certain ranges, I'd like to see the other challenges like headshot kills/elemental kills more often. Her 1, 4 and passive all helped with covering any elements you were missing. There are some less useful decrees in there that can be earned/possibly detrimental depending on your weapon loadout. Being able to remove Decree after it's been earned would be helpful. It would be nice if some of the decree bonuses could scale with warframe duration like armor on finisher kill for x-seconds being extended.

Her 3 is a little questionable for her survival, it only works 50% of the time and has a 3s cooldown. She does have more base health and armor than most other warframes, so it might be worth investing into health and armor depending on what level the content is that you're playing. The ability seems like it might be useful subsumed onto something with a large hp pool and easy access to healing like Wisp if you aren't interested in shield gating.

Her 4 has really good range and hits anything in line of sight. The CC lasts for a reasonably long amount of time and holds enemies still enough that you aren't struggling to get headshot kills if that was one of your Omikuji challenges unlike some other ragdoll cc abilities.

There are the recently reworked warframes if their changes were significant enough.

Q/A

• "!join"
• "What kind of game is it? is it a single player game" ( question by the CEO of Mihoyo, apparently?)
  • primarily coop, but single player "compatible". Centered aroudn a very dense open world map
• "On which platforms?"
• PC first, everything else hopefully late

They're finally releasing Warframe ~~y~~2~~k~~.

It's pretty amazing how much the art has improved over the lifespan of the game, even the Ruins in the section with the Murmurs looks very detailed compared to the more recent tileset reworks like the Corpus Ships.

It did not the last time I tried (a couple of seasons ago). There's also no solo extract so if you're trying to get something from rotation C, and your squad wants to leave early, you will be forced to extract along with them.

The final mission can be replayed endlessly during its weeklong period for one of the following random rewards:

• 5,000 Credits Cache
• 300x Endo
• Ayatan Amber Star
• Ayatan Cyan Star
• 500x Kuva
• Primary Arcane Adapter
• Secondary Arcane Adapter
• Forma BLUEPRINT
• Melee Riven Mod (Week 1 Only)
• Ayatan Ayr Sculpture (Week 1 Only)
• Pistol Riven Mod (Week 2 Only)
• Ayatan Sah Sculpture (Week 2 Only)
• Rifle Riven Mod (Week 3 Only)
• Ayatan Valana Sculpture (Week 3 Only)
• Zaw Riven Mod (Week 4 Only)
• Ayatan Vaya Sculpture (Week 4 Only)
• Kitgun Riven Mod (Week 4 Only)
• Shotgun Riven Mod (Week 5 Only)
• Ayatan Piv Sculpture (Week 5 Only)

If you care about codex entries, bring a Helios to week 2 to scan Nightwatch Grineer, and Week 4 for the Jack O'Naut (not sure if there are any other event only enemies showing up)

It sounds like you don't even know what the API changes effect, and why they are bad for both users and moderators.

Mods were promised first party moderation tools years ago that still do not exist. API changes are killing third party alternatives without providing a replacement. https://www.reddit.com/r/modnews/comments/141oqn8/comment/jn1234u/

The Official Reddit App on Android has issues banning people that have already been shadow banned by reddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/modhelp/comments/13t1npy/cannot_ban_a_user_in_my_subreddit/jlsupdm

There is poor accessibility support for visually impaired users. (r/blind is in the top 5% of subs and they can't bother making their app accessable for them, does Reddit really care about its user base?) https://www.reddit.com/r/Blind/comments/13zr8h2/reddits_recently_announced_api_changes_and_the/ There are even a couple posts on r/warframe from blind users

If Reddit actually cared about selling API access to 3rd party Developers, it would not have taken 3 months to respond to a developer. Honestly can't believe they claim to be "profit driven" when they can't be bothered to provide access to their PAID API. https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit/comments/145bram/addressing_the_community_about_changes_to_our_api/jnk2q0e

They do not have documentation ready for the new API, even though it should be going live at the end of the month. https://developers.reddit.com/waitlist

Helpful bots like remindme/savevideo/wiki bots/~~wanderingdwarfminer~~ are dead with the API changes. Can't pay for access to the API to keep them alive and there is no available documentation available to update them either.

Then there is also the issue that unless a moderator is on the first party app/official site, they can not see/moderate any content on a NSFW post. Want to post anything that breaks the subs rules, make it an NSFW post.

There was also some mention that it may be possible in the future for trolls to brigade a sub and take it over. Obvious targets for this would be any subs that are educational (r/learnjapanese already had someone requesting to take over), AskHistorians: push whatever alternate history you believe in, or for the "controversial" subs, I expect politics/lgbt type subs to be harrassed if a policy like this goes forward. Why is this even an option support plans to offer, and pass it off as "being in the community's best interest". If someone doesn't like the moderation team, they should be told to make their own sub, not be given the community the mods worked to create. The sub would have died long ago if mods were doing terrible job.

Just because something doesn't effect you directly doesn't mean it doesn't have negative consequences for the rest of the community or even an unforseen impact to yourself. Without the blackout, a lot of these issues would have gone unnoticed by the general community, these were all points I found skimming through the AMA.

*Feel free to correct me on any of my points, or even add to them. A lot of this information was learned through skimming, and I've linked to some quick sources that I used as references, or even better, go ask the affected communities directly how the API changes effect them.

I deleted my twitter account for less. Is it an issue that I stopped supporting a "massive company" because I didn't like how it was being run? (not that twitter was run particularly well before it was bought). It's not the first time a platform has killed itself. (looking at tumbler)

It's kinda funny how fast Reddit has escalated their threats in under a week. Also, their claims of being "profit driven" while ignoring Devs that were willing to (or at least inquiring about) use the new paid API for 3 months.

What information are you looking for that can't immediately be found from the official wiki/youtube/asking a question here? A large majority of the posts on Reddit are the same posts about Hemorrhage/Internal Bleeding, Prime Sure Footed/AOE or Incarnon related. You're placing too much value in historical information when updates have made a lot of it inaccurate/outdated due to powercreep. Not to mention how terrible search is on Reddit; you can search for a post by title and still not have it show up in the results page.

The main complaints wasn't that the API was going to be paid but how much more it cost to use the API vs other APIs like Imgur's.

There were devs that had been trying to contact support for +3 months to find out about pricing and Reddit couldn't bother giving them a response notifying them about the new pricing for their API.

Then there was the AMA about how the new API was going to work where nothing was answered. I think somone even linked to their API "documentation" and it was just it is just a waitlist, even though it is going live at the end of the month.

*There was also the response about how the reddit app lacks accessability, and it seemed more like they were scrambling to put something together.

I don't believe I read anything about bots having access to the NSFW part of Reddit, so some automated mod tools aren't going to work there anymore. People will probably notice an increase in onlyfans (or similar type of site) spam bots. Mods of those subs could probably write a bot that scrapes to remove those posts, but I'm pretty sure scraping is against Reddits TOS, and could just get the bot banned.

Other helpful bots that are community orientation are dead as far as I know, like savevideo/remindme.

https://youtu.be/99cVnYY9Iqs one reason why new Reddit/app is terrible, especially for anyone dealing with data caps.

**They also forced r/piracy to be public again, considering that they want to force questionable content like that to be public, they probably aren't going to bother doing a half decent job replacing mods when forcing other subs to go public.
