Beasts of the Sanctuary: Hotfix 22.20.3
Friendly heads up that we’re aware of the lavish costs to build some of the new Orokin Dojo Decorations. Our team is looking into not only reducing those costs, but also refunding Clans that have built them. Stay tuned for these changes next week!
Changes:
- You can now place multiple Custom Obstacle Courses in your Dojo!
- Scaled the Ceramic Dagger to a more reasonable size. Ceramic Dagger-But-Long-Like-A-Sword didn’t have a nice ring to it.
- Upon completing the required Synthesis scans, Simaris' Daily Task entry in the World State Window can now be clicked to automatically load you into the nearest Relay.
- Optimized memory usage by Dojos with a large number of Decorations. This also fixes a crash from Decoration heavy Obstacle Courses.
- Made adjustments to Controller bindings when transitioning between mouse and controller.
- Removed the ‘Only Sellable’ option from the Ducat Kiosk menu as it doesn’t apply to that screen.
- Removed the controller D-Pad function from the Somachord as it does not function there.
- *Removed profanity filter from Loadout names.
Fixes:
- More fixes towards crashing as a result of particles.
- Fixed a crash that could occur if you disconnected while your Sentinel Vacuum was sucking up an item with particle effects attached to it.
- Fixed a Dx11 crash on shutdown (possibly because the graphics driver crashed first).
- Fixed a crash that could occur when attempting to Host a session while an existing session was still active.
- Fixed duplicate Mods appearing in the Arsenal after upgrading a Mod. These duplicate Mods were merely a mirage of your desires, and did not truly exist.
- Fixed UI disappearing when switching between Spear/Bait/Dye in the Spear Fishing HUD.
- Fixed sleeping enemies (Equinox’s Rest) being alerted when approaching them.
- Fixed switching to Borderless Fullscreen not always positioning the window properly (it seemed to only be reliable if you set to Borderless and booted up that way).
- Fixed a script error when casting Saryn’s Spores on a ragdoll. This resulted in the Spores to not show up (but still tick damage).
- Fixed a prompt with incorrect text breaking your ability to enter the Dojo Obstacle Course.
- Fixed being able to trap other players inside Dojo Decorations.
- Fixed level load music playing when loading into the Apostasy quest.
- Fixed Kohm’s firing charge sound staying active.

- Fixed controller input issues when Chat linking Zaws.
- Fixed moss acting strangely with the Simaris Data Parse Widget.
- Fixed overlapping controller button callouts when selecting 5+ Emojis.
- Fixed Invasion text overlapping when hovering over the World State Window with a controller.
- Fixed a script error when transitioning between mouse and controller as the Arsenal Upgrade screen is opening.
- Fixed a script error when switching between mouse/controller before the Inbox has loaded.
- Fixed a script error when looking at enemies with non-standard resistance types (Void Damage, Finisher Damage, etc) with the Data Parse Widget.
- Fixed a script error when casting Gara’s Splinter Storm.
Conclave Fixes:
- Fixed Conclave mode of the Arsenal not presenting/applying upgrades correctly to items.

- Fixed Saryn’s Spores not doing damage while in Operator but damage continuing to increase over time.
- Fixed Saryn’s Spores active indicator remaining when switching to Operator.
- Fixed Saryn’s Spores breaking if you go through the Onslaught Conduit while Spores is active.
Fixes:

Beasts of the Sanctuary: Update 22.20.0
Saryn Revisited:
Our lady of poison is taking the center stage with Saryn Revisited 2.0! Yes, that’s right! She has been revisited for a second time, and this time we took a closer look at increasing the fun factor by removing layers of complicated synergies and giving Toxin Lash and Molt a long deserved encore.
Read all about our intent and full details on the changes in the official Saryn Revisited 2.0 Dev Workshop!
Spores
Inflicts target with a pox of Corrosive spores. Spread spores to nearby enemies by destroying them or killing their host (*Specifically by the spores themselves or by the hand of the Saryn who owns those Spores). Trigger the ability again to detonate active spores. Additionally:
- Increased Status Chance from 10% to 50% (scales with Ability Strength).
- A meter in the bottom right corner of your screen will show the number of affected enemies and how much damage is being dealt per tick to said enemies.
- Recasting Spores detonates all active Spores and will deal 2x the damage on an inflicted enemy based on the number of active Spores and the current damage per tick.
- Venom Dose Augment: Spores cast on allies temporarily grant them additional Corrosive damage to all attacks.
Molt
Shedding her skin like a snake, Saryn leaves a decoy behind to draw fire from enemies. Additionally:
- After casting, Saryn receives a momentary speed boost for a short duration.
-
Molt now scales similar to Rhino’s Iron Skin - All the initial damage it takes in the first 3 seconds will make it stronger. Any damage it receives after that point will target the absorbed health.*
- *Damage absorbed is shown in a buff indicator at the top of the screen.
- *Once all absorbed damage has dispensed, Molt explodes dealing Toxin damage to nearby enemies.
Toxic Lash
While active, attacks deal additional Toxin damage; this effect is doubled for melee strikes. Instantly burst spores when attacking afflicted enemies. Additionally:
- Increased Duration from 30 seconds to 45 seconds.
- Toxic Lash no longer grants 2 Energy restore when bursting Spores - With the new spreading nature of Spores, survivability of Molt, and the increased duration of Toxic Lash and Miasma, Saryn is not as Energy hungry as she was before!
- Contagion Cloud Augment: Kills with Toxic Lash leaves behind a Toxin cloud and Melee kills double the damage dealt by the cloud.
Miasma
Release a poisonous miasma that deals Viral damage to enemies in range. Foes afflicted by spores are more susceptible to the mist. Additionally:
- Now has a 100% guaranteed Viral Status Effect on damage tick.
- Increased range from 15 meters to 20 meters (at max rank).
- Increased duration from 3 to 5 seconds.
- Miasma inflicts double damage on targets affected by Spores.
- When recasting on the same enemy it will refresh the tick duration and maintain the Viral Status Effect, but will not stun enemies a second time until the Status Effect ticks have subsided.
General Changes to Saryn:
- Increased Saryn’s Armor from 175 to 225 (at rank 30)
- Increased Saryn Prime’s Armor from 225 to 300 (at rank 30)
-
Made some minor FX updates to Saryn’s abilities!
- Spores received a slight improvement to the FX.
- Reduced the brightness of Miasma.
- Improved FX to make her Molt cast more pronounced.
- Spores have been optimized and will be much nicer to your CPU!
- Saryn is also coming with a whole new set of sounds voiced by [DE]Danielle!!
- Added Abilities screen stats for Saryn Molt speed buff & duration.
We hope you enjoy experimenting with her changes. We will be watching closely for your first impressions. As always, we appreciate your constructive feedback and encourage you to thoroughly play with the rework before sharing your thoughts: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/957215-update-2220-saryn-revisted-20-feedback-megathread/
Dojo Remaster Part 2!
If you recall, we added enhanced Dojo Decorating earlier this year with some other minor changes. Part 2 has arrived, and it brings with it new visuals and a highly anticipated room!
Lighting Remaster!
Polychrome has a new function: Room Lighting Controls! Construct and place a Polychrome to explore all the new lighting and fog options for each room in your Dojo!
Obstacle Course Architect!
Construct your own custom Obstacle Course with the Obstacle Course Architect in your Dojo! Create elaborate courses and have your Clan compete for best times! This is only a sampling of the different obstacles you can use:
- Disappearing platforms!
- Deadly frickin lasers and pressure-pads that you should avoid at all costs!
- Dummies you need to kill to complete the course!
- And much more!
New Decorations & Pigments!
- Added 37 Tenno Decorations and 54 Orokin Decorations for your Dojo renovating pleasure!
-
Added new Pigment colors dropped by the following enemies:
- Shard Black: Vomvalysts
- Tower White: Condrocs
- Devar Grey: Tusk Bombard
- Wisp Grey: Skiff Pilot
- Mortus Pink: Kuakas
GPU Particles have arrived!
Did you miss our Dev Workshop!? Read it quickly here - it's short:
https://forums.warframe.com/topic/952766-new-gpu-particles-and-goodbye-to-physx-fx/
We have added 'GPU Particles' which replace the no-longer-supported Nvidia PhysX Particles. These GPU Particles can be enjoyed on all Platforms with varying intensity:
Off/Low/Medium/High... LUDICROUS!
https://giphy.com/watch?v=iDKRSgzeUjPDl4X43Ehttps://giphy.com/watch?v=3vmCiBqR5jXy3JSUGB
Many particle FX have been converted, but we will spend some time continuing to upgrade our catalog throughout the year. Our new system is universal, works on almost all GPUs (really old ones might be out of luck), is not locked to a given manufacturer, and is not locked to PC! Console Tenno will receive this next update!
New Simaris Offerings:
Sentinel Precepts (max rank):
Wyrm - Negate - Sentinel prevents Status Effects from applying to its owner once every 5 seconds.
Djinn - Reawaken - Upon death, automatically revives itself after 90 seconds.
Carrier - Looter (reworked original) - Destroys Loot crates within 12 meters.
https://giphy.com/watch?v=1wnnTyIoA65tyAq5EX
Data-Parse Widget:
Synthesis Scanner will now show target enemy weaknesses and resistances.
Controller + Cursor Changes:
Launching with this Mainline update is an experimental 'virtual cursor' for PC! If you use a Controller on PC, you will now find there is a seamless transition between Mouse & Keyboard + Controller! Icons and UI will also reflect those of a Controller when seamlessly transitioning between them. Please let us know how you like it - it should be a marked improvement from our incomplete controller support!
Scrambus/Comba Changes:
The Corpus are crafty and have found ways to combat the awesome abilities of Warframes. Their tactics help diversify gameplay, but the ability to counterplay is key. We made some tweaks in the past to Nullifiers with counterplay in mind, and now we’ve set our sights (or tried to at least) on the invisible auras of the Scrambus and Comba.
If you watched Devstream 110, you might already be familiar with our plans to change the Scrambus and Comba. Players can now engage in more cerebral combat with these enemies, using visual cues to take them down:
- Their Nullify aura has been replaced with a power that they can activate in combat. Upon use, it creates an expanding sphere that nuffilies players’ powers, and disrupts them for 2.5 seconds.
- Similar to the way shooting the Nullifier bubble or weak point can interrupt or prevent the aura from spreading, shooting off Scrambus/Comba’s helmet (or killing them) will negate the sphere:
Dargyn Changes:
While stealing Dargyns from unsuspecting Grineer is all fun and games, sometimes the Dargyn you want to commandeer isn’t on the ground—sometimes it’s manned in the sky and is shooting at you.
With today’s update, you are now able to acquire an active Dargyn in the following ways:
- Shoot the Pilot, causing the Dargyn to float gracefully to the ground for you to board:
- Use Loki’s Switch Teleport on the Pilot, leaving him grounded and confused:
- Use a finisher from behind while using Archwing, allowing you to transition from Archwing to Dargyn:
In addition to this new mechanic, we have also made the following changes:
- Increased mounted Dargyn projectile damage from 250 to 450 and increased the clip size from 50 to 75.
- Increased the spawn frequency of Dargyn patrol and idle Dargyn encounters when roaming the Plains.
Spear Fishing HUD Changes:
We’ve added a sofishticated new HUD to aid in your aquatic hunt for brains, bones, and delicious spleen! Selecting a Spear in your Gear wheel will open the Fishing HUD where you can switch between Spear, Dye, and Bait on the fly.
Grineer Shipyards Defence Layout/Flow Changes:
- Improved Defense Target navigation by shifting the path towards the center of level.
- Built additional buildings around the Defense Target path at both Defense locations.
- Added additional enemy spawn locations for each Defense location, giving AI more of 360 degree attack option.
- Adjusted Turrets within the level.
- Added additional cover and attack routes for AI.
- The rail upon which the Defense Tram travels on is now electrified!
- Moved hack panels to easier-to-find places in certain Grineer Shipyard tilesets. Hopefully you won’t get caught in a lockdown, but if you do, it should be faster to find a panel!
New Equinox Alternate Helmet:
EQUINOX CLISTHERT HELMET - When they are night you are day. When they are light, you are the all-encompassing dark. A demon helm befitting a Warframe of savage duality.
General Additions:
-
Added a new Growing Peculiar Mod to Onslaught rewards! Damage causes this enemy to inflate!
-
The Operator screen now displays a new opening UI! Switch between Equipment, Focus, and Appearance.
-
- New percussion-driven music has been added to the Star Chart and loading screens.
-
Real-time audio mixing is now handled by our new RTPC (Real-Time Parameter Control) system, which allows greater precision and control of the game-wide mix:
- Real-time audio mixing is now decoupled from music, so players who don’t want to play with music benefit from the new RTPC system.
- Player speed will now adjust footstep/sliding volume.
- Bullet sound volume when the local player is being hit by enemies is now based on Shields/Health.
- The RTPC system also allows cleaner and more focused music during heavy combat
- Starchat music will now be affected by the Music slider and not the SFX slider
- Added a North indicator to both the Plains of Eidolon minimap and Advanced Map. Cetus is due South, so players need only walk in the opposite direction of this marking to head home for an early lunch!
-
Added a ‘Show Ability Banner on Cast’ toggle to the Interface Options menu! This is off by default on PC. Console players already have these banners appear automatically, but they will have the option to turn them off once this change goes live on Xbox One and PS4!
- Added the ability to replay the Once Awake quest !
- Added the repurposed Kuva Defense tile used in Kuva Survival Missions to other Fortress missions.
-
Objects that attract weapon-fire, like Mag’s Magnetize ability, now do so in a more logical way:
-
- Added a 'CLAIM ALL' button to the Foundry that appears when you have more than 1 item ready to Claim.
- Weekly Leaderboards will now show a reset timer!
Captura Changes & Fixes:
To ease the tedious ritual of creating your cinematic masterpieces and Hydroid Prime trailers, we’ve added a new Camera Edit UI to the Advanced Mode settings!
- We now show you what camera is being highlighted in Advanced Mode.
- Added tool-tips to help you know what's going on with the settings!
- Captura, Text, now, supports, commas,!
- Improved speed multiplier controls for controllers.
- Fixed 'Cinematic Mode' button not re-appearing when swapping settings.

Fixes include:

- Fixed using Khora’s Whipclaw on a target causing all enemies affected by Ensnare to be released when the target is killed while ensnared. This one was particularly nasty in practice and made her kit feel weak!
- Fixed Khora’s Venari getting locked in her Attack Mode when attempting Mastery Rank tests, which can cause failure on stealth tests (MR9 for example).
- Fixed infinite re-whipping for Khora's Whipclaw by flailing the camera around rapidly.
- Fixed Ospreys not being fully disabled by Khora’s Ensnare.
- Fixed Venari freezing in place when entering Cetus from the Plains, and subsequently duplicating if you head back out, eventually leading to a hall of kitty statues.

- Lowered the Tusk Bombard’s base health from 350 to 300.

While the majority of the Dev-team is sworn to secrecy on various projects, we still have some exciting things in the works that we wanted to share! If you want to learn more about the Dojo Lighting remaster, Nidus Deluxe Skin, Melee changes, and more, you can do so in our overview: https://www.warframe.com/news/devstream-111-overview

Thanks to all!
Next Devstream #112 will be our last until TennoCon ... don't miss it later this May!
Melee Dev Workshop:

We all use it - even us here. The dizzying yet super-effective slaughter-tornado that can make all other Arsenal options obsolete. But spin to win and melee going through walls - should it stay the way it is? At present time, we don't think so.

We do not think Melee is at its best when you are facing a wall and spinning into it over and over again. And if we do not address that, any work invested in our melee rework could be wasted. We want to make melee better overall. Primary and Secondary weapons have all gotten pretty painless overhauls this year. Melee's turn is coming.

Scenes like this are all too common, our data shows this method in particular is often abused by automation, and our minds show it just simply isn't fun.
The melee review is taking the longest. It has the most complexity - you can equip Melee, use combos, channel, stealth kill, hit multiple targets, and so on. Removing the clear 'spin to win through walls' is our first step in this plan of making all things melee engagement better.
The first change melee will see before it's broader review is a change to how melee attacks work. The coming change:
- Melee attacks (including spin attacks) will no longer sweep through walls or objects.
As for the rest of the steps? What follows is an open door to what we're working on internally. This may not release exactly as described here, but we want everyone to be on the same page of what our plans are.
- While channeled blocking is useful on paper (hello 100% damage block + enemy hits reflected back), channeled damage has never really been celebrated beyond 'cool factor'. Getting rid of a separate channeling button frees up an input allowing us an additional attack button to use in combos making them easier to perform.
- Channeling is blocking, blocking is channeling! Normal blocking now performs like channeled blocking currently does. Experiments such as constant energy drain or a separate resource, blocked hits adding to Combo Counter are ongoing.
- We're still working on how/if to include the 'cool factor' of Channeling in combat.
- Combo Counter minimum hits per tier adjusted significantly so higher tiers can be reached more quickly and easily. Combo Counter damage multiplier may apply to heavy attack only and all points are spent on attack.
- Revisiting Melee will focus on slam and heavy attacks to make them more useful and fun to use.
- You'll be able to dual wield any one-handed weapon with any secondary weapon - as shown many moons ago on a Devstream!
- Dodge canceling any melee attack!
- FX treatment representing the true Range of melee attacks will be implemented.
- Mod adjustments will come to speak to the above, too! We will be taking a look at everything!
And last but not least, and sadly what only looks like one bullet point but actually touches well over 100 weapons, and is in fact parallel to the depth of the Secondary/Primary rework we did this year:
- Complete stat and Mastery Rank pass in line with the Primary and Secondary weapons.
- Base damage increased significantly to compensate for loss of channeling and combo counter multiplier on normal attacks
- Stances will be revisited to normalize combo inputs AND all combos will be reorganized to be more useful and fun to use!
These videos show what we have so far. The first is showing quick attacks and heavy attacks together, with emphasis on direction ground attacks. The second video hows you how combat looks against invincible enemies so you can get a feel!

We have them on throwing weapons and gunblades. Zenistar, Caustacyst, Twin Basolk and many more need it too. This needs to get added to the melee update.
