    With the latest Rework to Hydroid, he has risen from the depths of the ocean and has took the meta by storm. Now considered a God-Tier warframe, dominating the entire game, and offering insane levels of damage and armor reduction. However, what is really the main purpose behind a rework? And how does a rework become successful? Today let's discuss the main reasons for a Rework and figure out whats the main goals behind them.

    One thing have to disagree is his themeing, OG Hydroid had 4 water abilities and 2 half pirate abilities, now he's got 2 half pirate half water abilities, one water ability and one pirate ability as well as a thematic and useful passive, so while i do agree that it would have been cool to have puddle actually do something as he is right now he's got more than enough to the point the puddle would probably bloat the kit, special mention to the fact he's now one of the best new players Frames in the game.

      Yeah, the 1 is tremendously buffed (arguably one of the top 5 in the game now and probably only fighintg with Nourish as a top Helminth ability). 2 QOL is nice. 4 is .... underwhelming, but an improvement.
      Plunder is a severe step down from Undertow (both as an effective ability, and as the synergistic centre of his kit). And even if this were a whole new frame just released without any history to it.... a weirdly redundant ability that anti-synergies with his passive. And an armor bonus that is effectively meaningless (an unmodded Grendel will still have like 4 times a fully Plundered Hydroids eHP)

      @nobodyscomment929 8 місяців тому +32

      ​@@RBRSC Plunder allows Hyrdoid to permanently armor strip via max corrosive procs which is only possible thanks to his passive, how is that not synergistic?
      Also, in my opinion, undertow was a horrible ability that really had no purpose being in Warframe with it fast-paced and fluid movement. Being a literal puddle on the ground with a crappy movement mechanic was awful.

      @RBRSC 8 місяців тому

      @@nobodyscomment929 His max corrosive procs can come from anywhere. But when you 100% armor strip... Corrosive is the worst damage type to actually have. As referenced by Stormandreas, this synergy is also generally pointless. An armor stripped enemy is dead before the procs wear off so Permanent vs Temporary does not contribute to an actual effectiveness (up until it works on Archons or Eidolons, which it does not). They're also prettymuch dead even without that bonus damage buff too as that goes. Which leaves the ability as an armor buff that is a ton of setup to get and has a mediocre actual benefit because Hydroid isn't statistically speaking, any sort of chunky health frame.
      II'm not going to do an in-depth on how Undertow worked. But your argument means that Mesa is also terrible, and Assimilate Nyx. If you don't know or grasp the concept of toggling an ability on and off thats on you. You could pretty easily puddle drop onto enemies, quickly yank anyone else in sight in with the melee button, pop out and do a heavy attack on the now gathered enemies before. The only real problem with dashing variant was the 2 pushing people out as well, and they specifically fixed that in the rework.

  • @fran99080
    @fran99080 8 місяців тому +34

    Like you said, I would have loved to see hydroid having undertow in the same ability as tidal surge since they work the same thematically. Having the tap be tidal surge and hold be a reworked undertow would be amazing. I don't have as many gripes with the rework as you though. I still think they did a good job, and the abilities will still be used in a lot of scenarios.

      @Metaknight145 Місяць тому

      Eh. I'm a Valkyr stan and I will die on the hill that she's good and only her 3 needs to be changed to actually do something, her 1 can stay as a meme and a helminth slot.
      You only need to bind crouch + melee to a single key and that's it. Her spin attacks and her aerial attacks are the attacks in her stance that actually have damage multipliers. 200% for the Aerials and 300% on her spins.
      If you can do her spin attacks easily with a single key she turns into a living blender of death. Slap an armor strip on her, like Therros Strike, and boom she can effortlessly do any non-levelcap content in the game. She's my go to Frame for painlessly doing my weekly netracells.
      Get every debuff none of which she cares a single shit about, activate 4, then just tear through the level completely invulnerable without a care in the world. No effort, no think, no survive, only spin and win.
      I regularly get the most kills and the most kills to lower alert level in the squad with her.
      I don't think a Warframe that can effortlessly do all the non-levelcap content in the game needs a rework. I think its the ones that require tremendous effort to get them through content in the game that need reworks.
      Yeah, every frame can do all content. But which ones require you to move heaven and earth to do it? Which ones require a little tweak to do it? And which ones just kinda do it?

    They don't want to add pilfering swarm into his base kit because that would bleed too much into Nekros. Nekros doesn't have to build for it, Hydroid does. Plunder contributes to the "pirate" theme at face value now.
    Either way, the hydroid rework was aiming to do one thing and one thing only, Bring him to the end game. They did that. You can either just sit there and spam tempest barrage away all day if you find that fun or you can take advantage of plunder and buff your weapons. 2 methods of enjoyment + ease of use + power fantasy easily checks all the marks like you said, If you find it boring well, that's on you lol. That's why there are 50 warframes and not just a warframe that has roar, eclipse, nourish absorb+its augment all in one. The spice of life my guy, i'm sure you know what it is.

  • @theta-rx2
    @theta-rx2 8 місяців тому +19

    I actually would argue that the hydroid rework was kinda really good, like he is not just a weapons platform, he has also remained the cc that made him who he was. I could only really see something like undertow staying if it became highly mobile with it swimming through the ground, but warframes with an integral part of their kit tied to gimmicky movement historically has gone quite poorly (despite how much fun i personally think the frame in question is nowadays), so i dont really know what else they could have done there really, like undertow was his main survivability tool, so they gave him a survivability tool to gain armor, which he was kinda lacking on, and this filled a hole in his kit. Now when i play hydroid i really feel like an eldritch pirate caption in the middle of the storm with the cc and debuffs from his one and his 4. Tidal surge is great now but i think it could do with a little more control, hell maybe even add an alt function and put puddle on there as a way to heal, that could be a neat way to reincorporate it while keeping the new stuff. Idk i personally really enjoy it and it could use a tweak or two here but overall it made him much more fun to actually play, instead of just being used solely as a thing when you are bored ya know?

    If a frame turns off the game at low level it makes the game even worse for new players. If you start a new game and it's just a walking sim because everyone else is doing the content so fast you can't interact with it you aren't going to play the game for long. That's why Embers WoF got nerfed, it was actively making new players leave the game.

    And imo, puddle was a joke, all it did was hold his kit back, plunder is great for increasing damage of your kit and weapons, and only sits weirdly because his stats are still shield based. The perma strip is only there because it takes all the corrosive stacks off the enemies and bases your buff off of that

    I do agree they should of kept his undertow. But made it into the first unique crouch ability, like how some frames have unique rolls. Whenever he crouches, he goes into a puddle for as long as he wants, but can still take damage via area damage and takes more electric damage while in undertow.
    They could even removed his tidal surge and gave that to him as his unique roll animation and given us another ability along with plunder.

  • @kandihustty5610

    The only thing i'd of fixed with undertow is that it just spit out enemies instead of holding onto them when you move. So you were basically stuck in one place till everything in your puddle died.

    I haven’t played Hydroid in the past because of his lackluster power and slow build up compared to other frames. Yes it might not be be the best rework as you said but it is miles better than what he was, i really got to finally get him a loadout, some formas onto him, a decent and little bit more expensive build than what i had on him. It was so bad that i actually was surprised that i only had mods that were available at his prime release….

    I really wanna know why Hydroid *didn't* get to keep Undertow. It was by far the most memorable part of his kit. Tidal Surge feels like a hacked off extension of Undertow that could've just been bound to the roll or bullet jump of Undertow. Drowning enemies was sick. If Grendel gets to eat them, why can't Hydroid drown them?

    Honestly the phrase "Reworks should break new ground" is dumb to me.
    Because Yarelli was breaking new ground with K-Drive Merulina, and to this day that New Ground has done nothing but cause her to fall flat on her face.
    Hydroid's issue isn't that he's not unique, it's that Warframe abhors uniqueness due to the devs wanting both a power fantasy and a 'balanced' game with the rest of the community. It's due to wanting a balance that Eximus showed up and caused Limbo to be dumpstered, why Revenant's old risky Mesmer Skin was turned into an invincible option, and why damage is even more desired.
    Could they have focused more on the CC of Hydroid? Sure, but what would that accomplish but make him bad again?

    • @josequiles7430
      @josequiles7430 8 місяців тому

      I've never seen a community that abhors balance quite like Warframe's.
      It's silly to think that balance is incompatible with power fantasy, because it's said balance that, if done right, would allow you to feel powerful while using any of the game's options. In an unbalanced game only the players using the top options get to feel truly powerful, while the rest feel like they're being punished for not choosing said options.
      Also Eximus didn't "dumpster" Limbo, he still the absolute best frame for defending objectives, like he always has been. If something like Scarlet Spear ever comes back he will be used on mass like he was last time. Because he made the Railjack portion of the event a joke

Just the idea of undertow's victims floating around you

    I mained Hydroid before the rework with about 60 forma on him. I’m just happy that he is so good for SP missions now.
    What I will say is that, with the Kraken, I always thought it would be an idea to have the kraken transfer damage to all attached enemies like Khora’s strangledome to mitigate the annoyance of the flailing before. A shame they didn’t do anything more with it but. . . With how powerful Hydroid can make weapons, yea maybe would be a bit powerful.
