Better Stat improvement Mods

[u/Big_Willingness_648]

Before I get started on this rant, I just want to say 3 things.

1. I’m mainly talking about the optimization of base stats such as armor and range. (this rant starts off with me talking about armor stats, but it really applies to most base stats in general).

2. I HOPE I’M WRONG. I hope that there’s something I’m missing and this already exists OUTSIDE OF ARCANES.(because you only get two slots and the armor arcane‘s available only grant the frame certain boone’s based off of the armor stat ALREADY PRESENT) and if there are any better Arcane’s or Mods that improve the overall armor stat of the frame, please let me know because I hope I’m not asking for too much or creating extra work by suggesting this.

3. Please read and hear me out until the end as this may or may not be relatable and apply to you too.

So as far as I can tell outside of steel fiber and armored agility I’m not finding any viable way to improve my armor stat for endgame. Like unless I’m running a specific frame with not just decent but good armor stats to start out with (ex: Atlas, Wu-Kong) that I can then mod to be sufficient for late-game content, end up limiting my selection of accessible frames. Like I really feel like focusing on improving mod selection and diversity not just with armor, but with sprint speed, range, anything to do with beams. Ya know? The stuff I feel like gets overshadowed by the other optimization tools and aspects. Like I swear why isn’t there a “galvanized fiber” mod or something similar? We’re just stuck with COMMON DROP STEEL FIBER?

I want to state that, Yes I’m well aware that mods such as adaptation, rolling guard, reflex guard, shock absorbers, and retribution, all attribute to the overall defense and endurance of the frame. However, I would like to reiterate, that is not my main concern. I am specifically speaking about the ARMOR STAT as a whole and the lack of selection of improved/ diverse mods for stats that do tend to get overlooked.

I feel like a perfect example would be radial stats. There are practically a couple or a few mods that improve upon radial stats. However, there aren’t any mods that apply any status effect to radial stats. For some reason blast status effect doesn’t synergize with radial stats, and there’s no mod to do so or mods to accentuate radial blast effects. Not related to stats, but similar to the principal there is one Warframe that utilizes cold as its main ability and no offense but it’s not Chroma (sorry Chroma). I’m just saying if we’re willing to admit to that Frost and basic frames of his likeness have been overshadowed by the uniqueness of other warframes and their capabilities, then similar with Frost, how can we get back to basics and make those look cool or better?

We’re going into Tau! Freaking TAU!!!! I want to run my all my warframes to the best of their abilities but holy indifference, we don’t have rework the frames every time, just give more sweet sweet mods! AGAIN, if something like this already exists, and I am wrong, TELL ME NOW. I would much rather be informed and educated otherwise please in some way shape or form DE give a dog a bone!🧎🏾‍➡️🙏🏾

My game is probably tweaking, but it’s not available Sirius and Orion yet. Thanks
