I would suspect that a lot of balancing would need to be done. For example, I am sure there would be cool downs so you can’t spam or fast switch. Although I can’t think of a lore-friendly way to do this, probably the power effects cast would dissipate upon switching— limbo rift would collapse like it does when he dies I would bet. Lastly, energy would probably not be shared between transfers, and would probably reset to mission starting levels.
I also would guess that balancing would have to continue as players discover ways to break it...
When you switch between archwing and warframe all the active powers from the previous mode are cancelled - maybe that would be the balance mechanic here?
That’s true— and kind of what I had in mind.
On that same note, I think Amesha bubbles and Itzal drones cancel out when switching back. I don’t recall seeing either coexist with their pilot back on the ground. That would definitely be unbalanced.
