Talk:Nyx (Warframe)/@comment-216.15.123.23-20140114205443

I like Nyx. Her Chaos ability allows me to work through crowded areas with my Dread and Kunai. Mind Control is a benefit since it keeps leftover enemies occupied afterwards. My only issues are her other two abilities. Psychic bolts is perfect to spam on lower level crowds, or at least those who are light/non-armored. Everything else afterwards toss those attacks aside effortlessly. increasing the amount of bolts Nyx throws out would naturally make this skill much more useful. Absorb is biggest issue I have out of all of her abilities. The range of the attack is the first issue i noticed about this thing. For a girl, warframe technically, with low base armor, throwing her out into open fire and large crowds to perform a single attack sounds risky, even if her naturally good sprint speed helps reduce this problem. Being unable to reach distant enemies shooting at you is a pain in the ass. Even with a maxed a maxed out stretch mod, it still proves to be innefective, or at least by my standards. There's also the fact that, Nyx starts taking damage as soon as she releases the technique towards her enemies. I've had this issue everytime, and i'm not sure whether it's due to the long distance enemies, inflicted status effects upon using absorb, or whatever it is. But it is a glaring issue.

Tl;dr Psychic Bolts and Absorb should be tweaked, not to be powerful, but resourceful. I'd probably encourage shortening the duration of the time she has absorb up while amplifying the damage, and giving it a knockdown effect, but that's just my opinion, carry on
