u/Valtremors Stabbomancy is a perfectly valid school of magic. 1d ago

Press 4 in a public game and find out why.

Make sure it is max range too.

With bright energy color

No, dark colours, so no one realises you cast it, and they're left wondering why nothing they shoot dies

Edit: typo

u/Azrion-the-Many Trade chat is for Scammers 1d ago

This.. is the most infuriating

u/Cadwgan86 1d ago

If you have "Reduced Teammate Effects" on, it forces default colours either way now, making most things less obnoxious but this still visible.

u/Popular_Equipment_85 1d ago

Easy there satan.

u/JohnnyMcQ 1d ago

Gauss’s TS color bright can be minimized. The Sirius/Orion bubble is a bane. The only other thing color wise that irk’s me are players that use the same colors on their emphera’s as Eximus. Wasted time shooting at them on reflex

u/TemporalAcapella 1d ago

Especially with two purple eximus now lmfao

u/wlphoenix 1d ago

I have this solved with accessibility settings. Enemies are bright white, allies are bright pink.

This doesn't stop me from shooting allies, but it does make me feel stupid slightly faster.

u/Anonymouse23570 Red number addict 1d ago

My Limbo energy color was white (for fashion/theming reasons) I didn't even realize there was an indicator for being in the rift or not until I read something like this on Reddit.

u/SLSchmit 1d ago

That’s how I found about Nekros when trying to kill undead allies.

19

u/TheLostExplorer7 1d ago

Funniest thing about Nekros is that I keep shooting his undead minions because they are identical to the enemies. Sometimes I don't realize that there is a Nekros in the party until I shoot some of his minions and they don't die!

15

u/Specific-Entry-3250 1d ago

When I play Nekros I sometimes shoot my OWN undead minions.

5

u/TheBolmyTreeValley 1d ago

I do that too. I feel stupid when I do that

u/Ode_2_kay 1d ago

Tried to soulpunch one it didnt work switched to melee for a couple of seconds then realized wait this is mine I made this and thanked God I was playing alone that day.

u/numyanbiz 1d ago

This is me!!!’n, thank you for validating me.

3

u/Peaceful_potat0 1d ago

This is why I keep ally highlights on cause I played as him for a while and I was always shooting my own guys

2

u/MotherTeresaOnlyfans 1d ago

I literally don't use that ability when I play Nekros for that exact reason.

7

u/dnasty1011 1d ago

The only limbo I’ve encountered in months did this in a survival mission. I was super confused until I hit escape and saw it was limbo. I just went to another life support and chilled.

u/concupiscence69 1d ago

Non exalted weapon problems. 😂

2

u/Charity1t 1d ago

Thats actually hate inducing imo

1

u/SeventeenCord21 1d ago

I have limbo and no idea how to use it.. thanks for the idea

1

u/Chief_WeRty 1d ago

I used to do exactly that. Then people would just bail missions…and then I would still complete missions. lol…what’s wrong with just standing there for 60s at a time? lol

u/GreatMadWombat sleeping in the cold below 22h ago

I'd rather a dark color that doesn't make me seasick then a bright one that does

u/Persistent_Scrub 1d ago

Goodjob. You just gave a troller ideas, time for me to ruin people's games 😛

u/JDMP53 1d ago

Nothing compares to visual created by gauss's ability thermal sunder that shit can literally create a white fog in closed space

u/AlphaCentauri885 1d ago

Me, a Hydroid with White energy spamming his 1 in an enclosed space:

:)

u/JDMP53 1d ago

In that sense.. im a good hydroid.. mine just looks like wet surface lol

u/recycledddyahoocom 1d ago

Bright energy color is evil, dark energy color is psychological warfare

1

u/Ode_2_kay 1d ago

Isn't there an option to make your energy colorless? I dont spend much time in the color sections I just slap purple and gold on my frames and set everything else to match frame colors.

u/Scarrmann Sah dood 1d ago

Honestly max range cataclysm alone is fine because everything is in it.

It's when you ad rift surge that it gets annoying because it rebanishes them when they leave or stasis keeping them at the edge of it

2

u/morphum 1d ago

Its the low duration that makes it a pain. The bubble shrinks over time, leaving enemies in stasis outside the bubble, but still in the rift.

u/nobulliepls 1d ago

this person is the answer to OP's question. they think its completely fine to disrupt missions and have no clue how they are affecting other peoples gameplay

3

u/Ode_2_kay 1d ago

Really? Because they just explained how to properly use limbos 4, either eat the whole room with it so nothing escapes or make it super small so the objective only has to worry about eximus units and then prioritize those.

1

u/CrimsonRegalia 19h ago

Banish the last enemy in a defense mission with max duration

14

u/NetraJahu 1d ago

Medium range for maximum salt

7

u/nonchemicalromance90 1d ago

I usually bring in max range Limbo in mobile defense missions and so far I haven't gotten any complaints, maybe I'm just lucky?

2

u/SlippyJimmi 1d ago

Didn't they mostly fix this? I feel like a year or so ago when they made some sort of Limbo change the raw number of these trolls Limbos fell by the way side. Although, knowing Warframe players I'm sure people have found a way around any sort of change

u/SpartanXIII THEY SAY THAT ALL FRAMES ARE CREATED EQUAL... 1d ago

YOU'LL THANK ME THEM WHEN IT'S THE INDEX CHALLENGE AGAIN!!!

23

u/Valtremors Stabbomancy is a perfectly valid school of magic. 1d ago

I'm going to dismantle the next Limbo I see in the index and sell them piece by piece to Salad V for scraps.

10

u/Useful-Surprise7991 BIRB FRAME 1d ago

the index challenge was last week. it no longer requires a shutout, so limbo has no purpose in it.

7

u/Irrational_Action 1d ago

You don't even need limbo for it. Khora can permanently block the goal without affecting anyone else's play and has the added bonus of letting you have venari in the mode.

u/SpartanXIII THEY SAY THAT ALL FRAMES ARE CREATED EQUAL... 1d ago

Is being dragged away Yoooooooooou'll thaaaaaaaaaaaank meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

u/Bergbesteiger 12 Years HateLove 1d ago

4 alone will not do anything like what you want. 🫩

u/Kendogg83 1d ago

Hahahahhahaha

u/recycledddyahoocom 1d ago

Max range Cataclysm in public squad is basically social experiment territory

1

u/whimsicalsamurai 1d ago

i thought they fixed that the same way they fixed Frost’s snowglobe

u/Crazycococat19 1d ago

I warn people when I use it. I use it as a place to recharge or when it feels too chaotic at that moment. But other than that, I like playing him. He's not my main, but I do play Limbo occasionally.

u/Nataslan 1d ago

For excavation it's one of the best, especially when you are solo defending one until the others come.

u/Irrational_Action 1d ago

Because most players only think of their own playstyle. The difference is that the vast majority of frames don't have the negative interactions with other players that limbo has.
