Chroma rework ideas for DE

[Jakethesnake12124]

I believe that Chroma's 1 and 4 need reworks badly. i do not care if his 2 or 3 get changed, because thus far i have no problem with how they work. so here's my ideas...

1. chromas first abillity buffs your current weapon set with 100% elemental damage increase depending on your energy color. Chroma unleashes a small AOE upon activating this ability, throwing enemies off their feet and stunning them with a 100% status proc chance. based on duration with a ten second base at rank 30. I think this is vastly better than spectral scream and can be tinkered with to prevent it from being over-powered. BTW, they will remain efficiency abilities.

4. Chroma's four would be very similar to his first. Released with an AOE, the pelt remains the same, however, it has infinite vacuum and draws in items from all across the map, and any near-by containers are shattered by the pelt's warcry!
also, while Effigy is active, Chroma's weapons are temporarily taken away and he is provided with a spectral weapon depending on his energy color.

Toxic provides a terrible diseased whip with increased status chance. Chroma's speed boost from shedding his pelt will increase attack speed.

choosing electric will spawn a mighty sniper rifle in Chroma's hands. increased critical chance that scales with power strength.

Summon an icy mace when you have cold as your energy color, and exchange attack speed for a massive damage increase. also, each swing creates an ice trap on the floor that ensnares lesser enemies.

Bring into existence with by choosing fire a bruning throwing disc las long as chroma is tall. increased status chance while this disc is active, and while it is enemies cannot face chroma directly, less they recieve a radical blind from the intense light!

that is my chroma rework. i would love to see pelt follow behind chroma like a sentinel but that seems excessive considering his new arrayment of weaponry he will be recieving if my rework comes to reality. if you are in contact with DE or know how to contact them, then please send my ideas to their desks.

Nidus's 1 and 2 are a OP combo when you have enough stacks. That however doesn't mean his 3 and 4 are weak in anway.

same thing applies to Chroma, his 2 and 3 are OP, his 1 and 4 are not weak in any way, those are just weak compared to one of the strongest damage buffs in the entire game.

you got it all wrong what I've said, yes, all abilities need to be usefull but not all abilities of single warframe should be strongest in it's tier, like Frost has bubble and even tho other warframes have their walls Frost is a God when you need to protect something stationary. Nidus has that damage buff on his 3 but his buff is nowhere near Rhino's buff for example - he traded that for OP 1 and 2.
So Chroma has this INSANE buffs on his output and survivability, probably strongest buff in the game out of all warframes so he had to have other abilities bit weaker than other warframes , it is the trade the sacrifice, every warframe has to have his own thing and if you make 1 warframe with best buffs, best survivability, best exalted weapon and whatnot - why would anyone play any other warframe?
It is a nice example to compare Nidus 2 and Khora's 2, Nidus just has better ability, flat out better CC ability in action but Khora benefits from synergy with Whipclaw which can be considered like personal damage buff while Nidus on his own does not have that. If anyone playing this game would have to pick either of 2 and just play around 2-nd ability - 99.9% people would go for Nidus as it is flat out better option.

So yeah, abilities are somewhat on the same level but having one thing better than any other warframe is what makes any warframe unique and fun. Even tho sometimes that "one thing" can be synergy between abilities or certain set of characteristics (like Valkyr's armor)
Rhino is more popular as a tank than Valkyr because "fire and forget" mechanic on his survivability - you click 2 and once you notice directional markers of you taking damage you press 2 again.
While on Valkyr you have to mind the health, even tho she is flat out better at being a tank - Rhino is still viable and more popular choice because of how he works.
His augments can give him a lot of health for sure but Valkyr is still a better tank because her 4.

Same as there are exalted weapons in this game and then there is Mesa. It is not just DPS of it but ability to click 4 and kill everything without aiming for ♥♥♥♥.

Chroma has to keep his "Dragon" abilities of having elemental breath and having his Effigy separate from him, it is his thing, his story.
His 1 is fine, I really cannot say it is bad ability.
His 4 coould use rework
DE stated that they do not plan to implement him to dynamically change elements in battle.
And having exalted weapon for someone who already has exalted dragon sentient seems like an overkill but that's just me and I am a minority in term that I do not like broken stuff - I know all the hype is around broken stuff and people sell their kids on ebay to buy broken rivens, I just like stuff fair and not broken.
Buffing outputs of Chroma's 1 and 4 on top of what he already has would be just bad for the game as we already saw, it was "Chroma dps or gtfo". I really would not like super warframe that negates the need to use any other warframe and just power creepes the game.
I would like Chroma's 4 energy economy bit tweaked, Effigy as turret is fun to hold an angle and for it's own abilities, but adding 4 exaleted weapons to Chroma would just be overcomplicating things and making them broken as ♥♥♥♥.
No need to make one warframe the ultimate warframe and shove every possible mechanic in it.
Chroma's output is very good as is, he is very low on the list of warframes who need tweaking.

His 1 and 4 are painfully weak. Nothing wrong with a buff or rework.

Do we really want Chroma to be able to straight up 1-shot an Eidolon with an Exalted Radation Sniper?

Well he can do that even now, so that won't change a lot

Nekros sends ppl out of the map, Crhoma just slowly breath over the enemy.

On a barely-related note: I think it'd be cool if Chroma Prime had the secondary elements (maybe excluding blast and viral/gas/magnetic since there's 6 secondaries) to choose from instead of primary. Corrosive breath? Yes please.

Memer is salty at DE, expects the next Warframe reworks to make them into clones of super hero movie characters, dissapointed PoE isn’t WoW, salty at Star Citizen for some reason.

Even with his changes the 1 just feels like absolute ♥♥♥♥. It also looks really dumb doing parkor as you breathe a weak flame around you. A bad change for an already bad ability.

It should feel more impactful, like a giant damage burst charge up energy ball that he shoots. Maybe make it leave a napalm effect on the earth that procs status onto whatever touches the aftermath.

they did that with embers one, and its pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥
