^I'll invoke logic where it exists, and not settle for that lilly-livered "Everything is special" nonsense.

I hate to break it to you, but not every Warframe is useful in its own way. Some Warframes are completely pointless because another Warframe just does its job strictly better.

There's no reason to use, say, Ember while Nova exists. Because Nova already packs loads of prime CC and damage into one skill than Ember does in her entire ability set. Nova is every bit as effective at Ember's job within the level range Ember is effective (which is up to about level 25, 35 if Infested, 42 with nightmare mods and a lot of forma), and then scales PAST that range with ease because of Antimatter Drop and Mprime's HUGE CC range.

Ember can lob fireballs. Whoopty fucking do. She can pay energy to pretend she's a shitty Orgis.

And that's just one of MANY disparities that exist because Digital Extremes is HORRIBLE at balancing games.

Even back when they worked with Epic, they were still struggling with the concept of balance (look no further than the enormous disparity in balance between UT 99's weapons. The Pulse Rifle is a SAD fucking joke, while the Sniper Rifle is God incarnated as a gun)
