Talk:Mesa (Warframe)/@comment-5.14.201.44-20151009191856

Honestly i could've thouth of a million ways to nerf her istead of completelly killing her.

Allow me to explain, Take for instance nova, b4 her rework she was pretty much the most op caster in the game, easy to mod hight dmg, the works. She was unbalanced i admit and she did need some changes, BUT heres where i think DE found a great way of nerfing her but without removing her gimmik so to speak. Her gimmic? Make enemies glow, slow them, apply dmg buff, and make em explode. They made her ult expand in a bubble so that the debuff wold be added gradually istead of imediatelly, this added a new thing players had to worry about, duration and power range. Great way of changing her WITHOUT actually removing her gimmik.

Mesa on the other hand got completelly killed by this rework, they removed her gimmik wich was the aimbot. It was fun as a mechanic, new, and quite awesome to look at. Imbalanced? Absolutelly!! Needed to be nerfed? YES!!!! As she was she was the most op frames as it was, high dmg combined with low user skill requirement made for a for a formidable package. Im not a developer so i cant really say how exactly she should have been nerfed but i bet de could have found a smark work around without removing her gimmik.

tl;dr Call me a noob what ever you want but i really enjoyed her, because she waas op, because she looked badass while doing so but also because she was using somehting different. Not AoE explosiong, or tentacles, or corrosive farts. A new mechanic all toghether, something that made her stand out from all other frames.

DE i love you, but you broke Mesa and my heart.
