Why is the weapon that kuva liches have to be random

[SirSlapAlot]

Every time i get a weapon with low %element on it, i feel reluctant to give it 5 formas since i know i'll eventually get a better %element on another lich.
and also i've gotten 3 kohm liches in a row and my FIRST lich was a kohm .
converting them ain't that helpful either. Hardly does anything other than draw agro.

My problems isn't with the % chance, it's with the fact that you find a lich with the same weapon. I agree with that, is kinda stupid.

Sure, you can trade your lich with a Clan Member, but otherwise you're forced to convert, which is imo pointless.

I converted my first one, he always helped me in very tough situations. For example today i was gathering data by shooting Profit taker in phase 3 and i was under heavy fire.. he showed up and i could easily get the data because he drew all the fire.

Is the trading lich with clan member thing already in the game?
I'm part of a quite big clan and i'd rather have a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ kuva kraken over another kohm

What he ment by “trading lich to a clanmate” is to tell your friend the combination of mods that will work on your lich, so he could kill him, instead of you.

I'm pretty sure you can't perform the parazon mercy thing if the lich isn't yours
i've heard about a lich contract trading thing somewhere in devstreams before tho

I have no idea what you're trying to compare a deck shuffling to but you do you man

I was dealing with my liches mostly in public sessions, and not once, not even twice, I had my lich go down 1 or 2 health bars (out of 3) not because of my own actions - someone else was perfoming misery actions on my liches. However I am yet to see a successfull attempt at a complete kill of a lich from hands of other players.

I'm pretty sure i've tried spamming my parazon on other people liches thinking i can nab their weapons with enough luck but it doesn't let me

Same for me, but I am not old enough for my consciousness to betray me that hard...

ITs called random chance. Thats what im refering to. Havent you ever farmed a frame from a boss and kept getting the same part over and over.

[SirSlapAlot]

The main reason of the post is that things like kuva weapons should have a sense of control of what you get
Farming a frame from a boss takes 3 mins and even down to 1 min+ if you're a fast frame with decent tileset knowledge
well farming a kuva weapon takes an average of 2 hours

Bosses don't take agonising hours of grind and multiple layers of RNG

At this point game is just one big cluser of random number generators.
What do you want them to do? Do what old sorties did and lock some drops after they drop for a "season". Or something else.

Warframe needs sustaineable content.
like it or not, a game can't sustain much longer without some kind of randon generated value.
