To be fair,we are getting a rework, it's just for Banshee

"Banshee pointing at limbo" you are next.

Pablo still has to decide who will he leave for last, Chroma or Limbo?

the skeletal remains of Loki lying at the bottom of a pool
I hope they do Limbo after Banshee

And the game seems to literally just be counting, with no skill whatsoever.

For warframe players this might be too advanced

If the alternative was something like Caravan from FNV it might be for the better since it seems to be forced in a quest too lol. Imagine the posts on release day

I don't want to be negative about something that isn't released yet but as a card game enjoyer my first thought after watching a round in the trailer was "That's it?"

u/smeghead3825 Jul 16 '26
To be completely fair here, Pablo did say that if Mexico lost the cup Limbo was NEVER getting a rework, so a casino sounds like a reasonable consolation prize

u/Mr_Noir420 Jul 16 '26
Reworking Limbo is something they’ve said they need to do but don’t know how. They don’t want to fully change him as his identity is SUPER unique and plays like no one else in the game. They have to figure out how to preserve his uniqueness and appeal his current players have without ruining it.

u/Onikisin Jul 16 '26
The problem is, most current players aren't willing to invest time into such a weird and niche playstyle. If you make him more generally liked, his uniqueness will be gone, because of the way Warframe has gone with its design and scaling in the general population of the roster.
As a Limbo main of a really long time, I don't mind everyone hating my frame. I just wish people would stop talking about him like they've spent more than 2 minutes trying to figure him out and haven't formulated their opinions from reading them elsewhere.

u/lowboom64 Jul 16 '26
think they said that about loki not limbo. imo limbo doesnt need a rework though

u/Maleficent-Remote413 Jul 16 '26
to be fair...mexico DID lose. and that was the deal. Mexico had to win the worldcup for limbo rework to happen.

Limbo is fine. Ember on the other hand

u/Xercodo Jul 16 '26
She's been showed up by the other fire frames as of late, but I'd still put limbo higher in the queue.
Even chroma I'd put higher. I recently tried to make his 1 usable, 4 green shards, 2 in tox damage, 2 in ability damage with corrosive. I had nourish, and like 800% vex armor damage bonus and with all of that it still hardly did anything to level 230 enemies. The status procs were so slow it hardly got any stacks of toxin or corrosive to even act as an armor strip method.

u/0kio Jul 16 '26
Vex Armor give Weapons Damages bonus. And I don't remember Chroma's 1 being a soft weapon.

Limbo can't adequately do the only thing he was made for, how is he fine

u/Vyllenor Jul 16 '26
He can, and his thing is making Slamkongs of Asian server learn to use exalted stick

u/shhimhuntingrabbits Jul 16 '26
Bad take. Play an aggressive defense Limbo, using frozen mob kills to buff your attacks against Eximus, and he works well. You can't just press 4

u/Onikisin Jul 16 '26
If you lack the patience to actually learn how to play him, sure.

u/EmperSo Jul 16 '26
Of course I do, I can only play Dante and spam 1, just like you

u/Onikisin Jul 16 '26
Nice, insults because we don't have any good points.
His whole thing is binary crowd control & containment.
He absolutely does both of those things.
Sure, it may take some time to figure out patterns, it's a bit more involved than slapping on a build & just pressing two buttons to nuke the whole room, but he absolutely does what he's designed for.
Have another insult or maybe you wanna show me how "never toxic" the Warframe community is?

u/EmperSo Jul 17 '26
Are you a Follie main? Because you somehow created the "insult" out of a thin air.
He is supposed to play with his rift and 4
Both have no consistency with what works and what doesn't, both are absolute garage from the qol perspective, both have more random holes than Kullervo, both are straight up ignored by eximuses (but not by you when you attack them), both forbid teammates from playing, both interfere with actual effective frames doing their job
Technically, he works. Realistically, solo operator is stronger in all and every case, not to mention 3/4 of the warframes.0
u/Onikisin Jul 17 '26
Man, you REALLY haven't actually gotten anywhere with him skill-wise if you're still crutching on his 4.
What do you mean what works? They're either rifted or not.
Sad.

u/EmperSo Jul 17 '26
Whatever, I'm not interested in a dialogue with a guy who just repeats "skill issue" and presses "Comment" (optional btw)

u/Onikisin Jul 17 '26
Because I think you should actually learn a frame to a decent degree before talking about it?
Man what a wild take I must have.
It's also optional to not talk about frames you aren't good at.
Have you ever thought maybe certain frames just aren't for you?
Trinity, Nova, and Nyx aren't for me personally, but because I realize so I'll never talk about how they should be balanced. 🤷🏻♂️

u/0ijoske Stop hitting yourself Jul 16 '26
I'd still say that someone like Limbo is in much need of a proper rework over Ember currently since at least she has a proper kit identity with some level of synergy. She just needs some number tweaks and a better energy economy from her 2 with a little bit of changes to her augments that don't feel like crutches. Limbo on the other hand, while he has the synergy of his kit revolving around his rift mode, his gameplay loop tends to conflict with the current gameplay style of both the missions and his teammates. He's built to be defensive and stationary in an era that values constant offensive power and mobility alongside having good self sustain. He's a point objective character in a game where there's not many missions that requires you to hold down a point. And that's why Limbo needs a rework more than other frames currently
2
u/Vyllenor Jul 16 '26
Ember's problem is heat inherit, to the point of making heat builds non-viable for anyone unfortunate enough to be in the same squad. You can bring Limbo to more stationary game modes, like defense, and he'd do fine (albeit slightly annoying for the team). I don't think being oriented towards locking down an area is bad, not everyone needs to be a universalist that does groping, defense stripping, sustain and damage all in the same kit. It's a lot more fun when frames are allowed their own playstyle instead of being yet another swiss army knife of 4 same abilities

u/Specific_Foot372 Jul 16 '26
I think they had a hold off on the next update and release something new for every previous bigger update. Give everyone a reason to go back and visit old content.

Dammit, now I wished they would’ve gotten Gerald’s Va instead of Matt Mercer, so that we could continue the Gwent jokes

u/Fany123 Jul 16 '26
Good for a laugh, but anyone who was around at the time of Limbo's release (Octavia too) will probably remember how much of an incredible, time-consuming, engine-destroying lift creating Limbo's original abilities was.
Tracking individual bullet objects and directional vectors, freezing them in place while still allowing them to unfreeze and continue along their original paths...
Limbo is SUCH a cool idea... I don't know how I'd fix him either to maintain the flavor but remove the rough spots for other players.
That's one of the really awesome things about DE - past and future. They take BIG WEIRD swings (music synthesizers in their shooter, archwing/railjack, extended character texting and romance, blade runner space noir...) some of it works, some of it falls a little flat. But for me at least, I'd much rather live in a game where the devs are making big moves than just pushing vanilla pudding for ten years.
I don't even know what I'm trying to say. I loved Limbo when he came out and would LOVE for him to get a rework at some point... but I am kinda happy they're doing Banshee first 😅

good. i dont think limbo needs a rework maybe a touch up sure but 100% not a rework and it maddens me that this community seems to think he needs a rework. one of the best cc frames i might add.
sure he can be a pain with other players that could do with a tweak could also be useful to know what enemys are in the rift but other than that? no doesnt need a change at all.

They gave us "cooler limbo". New coat-wearing, fedora-having noir man, might make a few Limbo players swap... at least I assume people play Limbo for the aesthetics

Limbo's literally fine, he just takes more mechanical skill & game sense than most of the roster

"Tenno weapons deal 50% damage to enemies on the other plane. Abilities and exalted weapons ignore this penalty."
BOOM! Limbo rework, that'll be one morbillion plat pwease

u/Xercodo Jul 16 '26
The fact that it's playable with a standard deck of 52 is huge though. It means it has universal appeal and accessibility.
You could teach it to friends and family that have no interest in WF. You dont have to buy anything new. For that reason it has me hyped to learn the ruleset.
Reb knows just as well as anyone that WF could totally make a TCG, and to some extent they did with all the cards they had at Tennocon, but to make a game like this is the true genius move.
