I played Ember both pre-and after rework and she IS better than before. I don't consider myself a hardcore, but I don't consider myself a casual either and I did nearly all Warframe has to offer me that isn't PvP and wasn't retired before I started playing (August '18).

Her ult doesn't seem to have a cap of targets as far as I can tell. But the angle of casting seems inconsistent.

Gara and Mesa both are duration limited, Ember can keep up her 2 as long as her energy allows which can be ad infinitum nearly. And at a point you get the DR back to 90% so fast after casting your 3 that the danger is basically nonexistent. Very rarely I have to actually recast the ability.

Because Ember can strip armor your squad can go with different auras. And not everyone goes in a full squad or just go solo thus they can't have 4x CP. Sometimes it's good to try something different or adapt to a different situation. What if one day they nerf CP and that "unnecessary" armor strip turns into a must have? It is very useful to me and many who go solo or otherwise don't get full 4xCP. And even besides armor strip, her 3 provides decent CC.

I can reliably keep killing enemies above Sortie 3 level with new Ember. How far above? Can't see it being reliable at 200 but for certain I can kill 150 corrupted just fine. I had no issues killing things while farming murmurs for my Kuva Lich - I got to lvl 130 with those missions before slaying my lich.

And speaking of Heat rework, it pairs up very well with Corrosive in a complimentary way. Especially because it deals bonus damage to cloned flesh/infested where Corrosive shines against their armor or ancients. I thought Ignis Wraith can't get more powerful... I was mistaken.

I agree, however, that Ember should've gotten increased energy. I can keep up with energy requirements with 160% Efficiency, Energize, 4 augment and Energy Generator Dethcube but well, that's admittedly a lot of stuff to feed energy. And the ramp up of 2's energy consumption should be slowed. Other thing I could ask for? Display the 4th ability angle in the ability info, maybe also let it be increased with range.
