Hello everyone,

Just did a few missions on the Zariman and remembered a post from here or back on the old subreddit talking about some people still never using Operator mode. So I figured it’d be interesting to hear what people think about it and how much they’ve invested into it:

  • Do you use Operator/Drifter mode any more than absolutely necessary?
    • If so do you prefer the Drifter or Operator?
  • How much effort have you put into your Amp(s)?
    • Have you built several with significantly different behaviors? [Ex one a flamethrower, one a grenade launcher etc]
  • Do you use Operator &/or Amp Arcanes?
    • If so which ones?
    • If so have you raised them to maximum rank?
  • What Focus School do you main?
    • Is it the school you started with?
    • How far into it are you?
  • Have you used other schools?
    • If so have you unbound anything from them?
  • What would you say your primary method of getting Focus is?
    • Do you like that method?
  • Compared to your main Warframe how effective is Operator Mode for you?
    • Compared to an average Warframe how effective is Operator Mode for you?
  • Is there any stand out utility of the mode for you?
  • What would you say your general opinion of the mode is?

    Yeah, Operator/Drifter equipment could certainly use another pass. Would be really need if we could grind some stuff from 1999 back with us for use in the mode but I don’t think that’s the direction that they are going in.

      Operator animations also need a rework cuz they’re janky as fuck. The forward roll is the main reason I run Drifter all the time but I do not miss janky runs.

      I still think my number one peeve was when they first dropped Orphix venom is also when they dropped the Transference Static debuff too. With one hand they expected us to use Op a ton for this new game mode and with the other they punched us in the goddamn face if we were bad it. It just really soured Op for a long time for me.

      Duviri and shit has helped, but Transference Static is still feels really bad and feels ungodly punishing for no reason. Especially with the bandaid fix Arcanes and shit for it too. Like why should I have to give up an entire gear slot to patch over something that shouldn’t exist in the first place?
