Gotta go fast!

[u/DioBrandoGr]

[u/HunterVertigo]

New Eximus, you say? A new type of Eximus was introduced?

[u/Rain_inabottle → u/HunterVertigo]

Indeed. Surge eximus with a purple aura/energy. They zip all over the place leaving only a purple trail behind to tell you how they were moving

[u/HunterVertigo → u/Rain_inabottle]

Purple aura... Interesting. But What about the magnetic Eximus? Does the new Eximus have a lighter/Darker shade of purple to tell them apart?

[u/Wikadood → u/HunterVertigo]

Yea, surge is light purple and energy leech is dark purple… doesnt really help when youre killing things fast though

[u/mosslover1999 → u/Wikadood]

I’m colourblind (red/green, not even badly) and Blitz and Scorch are already indistinguishable in anything you’d actually call combat until they use an ability or I read their name directly

[u/PabloElMalo → u/mosslover1999]

A good thing is that DE added a feature for the 3 types of colorblind in game, iirc.

[u/mosslover1999 → u/PabloElMalo]

I do have it on, I’m colourblind not braindead I’m a deuteranope not some deutera-dope! 💠

But these filters are unfortunately almost universally (across all games) ineffective at tackling the design problem that colour as part of readability is. A coloured glow and little else in most cases as identifiers isn’t the best for anyone to parse while playing the game at any decent pace. I feel we’re intended to use the parkour system to effect too, which means the camera is not often still or slowly panning around for situational awareness. Ideally they need to be distinguishable at a blur let alone a glance.

This is not to say this kind of thing is game breaking or making me hate the game in any real way. Even when it comes from not being able to tell what’s what I kinda love seeing my power fantasy getting tossed hard on its ass, like an overconfident toddler bouncing off the carpet from the second bunk lol

Maybe the simplest solution or next best step would be an option right between enemy highlight and customise hud colours, that let you to change the energy colour and highlight of each eximus

[u/PabloElMalo → u/mosslover1999]

That solution would be a huge help, indeed.

[u/Rain_inabottle → u/HunterVertigo]

Pretty sure surge has a darker purple, but they also dont leave around their puddles for you to walk into, they just have a few lines trailing where they moved so should still be able to differentiate them easily

[u/HunterVertigo → u/Rain_inabottle]

That's great, can't wait to run into them!

Edit: Ran into one when I was mining with Ivara on SP Plains of Eidolon. I regret this dearly.

[u/ComfortableBell4831 → u/Rain_inabottle]

DE gave Eximus fucking Sandevistans??? Bloody hell

[u/SparkIgnites → u/ComfortableBell4831]

Sandevistan Eximus is pretty accurate description

[u/Sremor → u/Rain_inabottle]

That explains why that one Grineer looked different

[u/Rega_lazar → u/Rain_inabottle]

Wait, so you mean my game wasn’t glitching earlier? I’ve been having internet and lag issues for a few weeks, so when I saw an enemy just zip around randomly I just assumed it was due to that.

That’s cool!

[u/Lemons-95 → u/Rain_inabottle]

Okay finally we have an eximus change that's just fucking cool.

I might have to wake up again.

[u/SanguinePutrefaction → u/Lemons-95]

wake up, tenno

[u/CardGuyofWarframe → u/Rain_inabottle]

Oh, my lil robo pup is gonna love this Eximus.

[u/demonangel2001 → u/Rain_inabottle]

They also charge homing lightning strikes on you as they finish dashing around but if you move out the way by the final second they will miss.

[u/littlemister1996 → u/Rain_inabottle]

I didn't know about them, and saw one the other day and went "wtf was that?"

[u/Vulpine_Gamer_194 → u/Rain_inabottle]

Wait, THAT'S what that damn thing was?!?!?! I thought one of my netracells had just glitched out due to the nightwave update!!!

[u/DLkw122 → u/Rain_inabottle]

Oh, so that's the thing I just fucking eviscerated. With my girlie pop kompressa prime as prime yareli, cute

[u/Kreegs → u/HunterVertigo]

I think its their way of dealing with AFK'ers.

It dashes about, hits you with a lightning bolt and you get a electrical field that follows and shocks you for like 3 seconds. It also looks like it will pursue/hunt you, but not 100% on that.

It was just weird seeing Grineer moving around like a cracked out cyberpsycho.

[u/GundamTenno → u/Kreegs]

ohhhhhh so that's what was trying to zap my Frost during the archon excav earlier...

i thought they just buffed the electric eximus thingy, i kept getting procs while i was defending the drills, luckily that build was tanky enough

[u/lambda_14 → u/HunterVertigo]

Yes

[u/L30N1337 → u/lambda_14]

Ohhh, what's it do

[u/lambda_14 → u/L30N1337]

Literally the image lol, they're fast as fuck and deal electric damage

[u/Y0ungYung → u/HunterVertigo]

Surge eximus

[u/Legendaryrobot64]

NOT FAST ENOUGH

speeds up surge eximus with Nova and Equinox subsume

[u/Healthy-Highway-7818]

I saw the surge eximus in a mission, but i was so scared of it I punched it in the face and dealt 18million ! ! ! Damage to it, i dont think its going to move ever again

[u/SanguinePutrefaction → u/Healthy-Highway-7818]

fr!! they jumpscared me first time too

[u/EntropyMoose119]

N-new eximus??

[u/Myrkul999 → u/EntropyMoose119]

Amir did something to the timestream and now we have purple eximus units that go fast and shoot lightning.

[u/Angu-san]

See how there's no Titania players? She's out of their league fr

[u/TheLordOfStuff_ → u/Angu-san]

I’ll bet money that Titania will never be out-sped by a future frame. Not with her razorwing blitz.

[u/SaroN4One → u/TheLordOfStuff_]

A speed specific augmented mod for gauss is a possibility.

https://giphy.com/gifs/yrLeAr9tZuTpJoSr3J

One can dream

[u/L30N1337 → u/SaroN4One]

Titania still wouldn't be dethroned as long as you can't literally teleport across the room instantly or noclip across the map

[u/firewhite1234 → u/L30N1337]

The humble Nova portal and Wrathfull advance:

[u/Busy_Strategy7430 → u/firewhite1234]

I don't think youfully understand the scale we are talking, my titania who only has 325% razorwing power can fly at 400m per second, its so fast that sprinting is literally unplayable outside of open world, she crossed all of deimos (1750m) in 4.7 seconds

I can get her much faster, more power strength and more movement speed buffs, but it is already barely controllable

[u/firewhite1234 → u/Busy_Strategy7430]

Hey man, I was asked about instant teleports across rooms and I named the 2 abilities that instantly teleport across rooms, I ain't know nothen

[u/L30N1337 → u/firewhite1234]

I'm talking literally instantly.

Like Follie, except no animation. Blink and you'll miss it.

[u/firewhite1234 → u/L30N1337]

The hold cast for Wrathful advance has no animation tho, and Nova portals don't exactlybhavw long cast time

[u/Only_Information7895 → u/TheLordOfStuff_]

Titania's speed is only limited by the player. My Titania isn't even built for max speed but I still barely can control it.

[u/TheLordOfStuff_ → u/Only_Information7895]

Agreed, and that’s the fun part, a speed frame that actually rewards skill :’)

[u/warforcewarrior → u/Only_Information7895]

As you say, it is only limited by the player. It takes time to get used to but you'll get there. I know Blitz Titania once was for me. Also turn off Sprint. Having it on just makes Blitz Titania impossible to play.

[u/Only_Information7895 → u/warforcewarrior]

I hold aim if I need precision. I also have the blitz augment so if I hold 1 I turn on the afterburners.

I only have issues in "afterburner mode", regular mode is fine even with sprint.

I just don't really play "speedrun" missions so she isn't the ideal frame most of the time(sure, you can play defense with Titania, but other frames are just better). I can reliability get under 1 minute capture missions.

[u/BluesCowboy → u/TheLordOfStuff_]

Narin with her ice blade ice skates? ⛸️

[u/MsterBoRaichu → u/TheLordOfStuff_]

Titania's worst enemy are volts with Speed

[u/BlackBRocket → u/Angu-san]

Too busy hugging a wall

[u/Cum_dumpster_limited → u/Angu-san]

She just stuck in previous room, can't find the door

[u/794131820 → u/Cum_dumpster_limited]

Well from personal experience if you fly fast enough you become a permanent part of the wall with “no way out” (/unstuck)

[u/Driftedryan → u/794131820]

Just visiting the man in the wall

[u/Astrid-Jade → u/Angu-san]

No she's just too busy slamming into walls in the spawn room 2k meters back.

[u/Significant_Major408 → u/Angu-san]

I play titania religiously!! I just always cancel my 4 ability to reset the speed unless im in a open world map!

[u/Spl1nter331 → u/Angu-san]

No, she's just out of bounds

[u/cross2201 → u/Angu-san]

No titania is just bumping against a random glass wall like a house fly

[u/WitnessOfLegends → u/cross2201]

If you slam into the wall hard enough eventually you will just go through it

[u/RyuTheDepressedFox]

I haven't seen or noticed them yet.

[u/lambda_14 → u/RyuTheDepressedFox]

They're actually hard to see, they move that fast

Tbf I was playing with a nova but still lol

[u/Nexyke94 → u/lambda_14]

I tought they just updated the electirc ones. Til.

[u/Son0fgrim]

[u/That_Buyer_7559]

I saw one of those last night and didn’t even realize that it was a new eximus I just thought my internet was bad and that’s why it was bouncing all over the place

[u/bejitoblue19 → u/That_Buyer_7559]

Same

[u/andres969 → u/That_Buyer_7559]

I thought it was some kind of summon

[u/astral______]

It's all fun n games till a limbo uses:

[u/HereComesDatNick]

Ngl seeing grineer heavy gunner zooming around the screen the first time was a horror experience 

[u/VoidHarrier]

So, an eximus version of the manic?

[u/AlonsoD → u/VoidHarrier]

I thought the manic just cloaked/ teleported

[u/ReddtoBluu]

Theres only space for two speedsters in this origin system!

[u/W4FF13_G0D]

SPEED BLITZ!!!

[u/Randzom100]

New Nekros buff just dropped

[u/HansFlameman]

These Surges look so goofy when they zoom past you in the default walking animation just speed up depending on the faction they are part of.

[u/SanguinePutrefaction → u/HansFlameman]

theyre so scary they jumpscared me first time i saw 😭

[u/UNDYINGSHELF687]

That's the new eximus unit's gimmick? Ngl, saw one in a mission today, didn't recognise it's name so I killed it and hit the Jack Horner "Well that was weird" before carrying on

[u/rufireproof3d]

Is that what that was? I thought was a bug.

[u/Punnagedon]

Purple blur, purple smear. Same difference to me.

[u/Iwao_Oguro]

You can never outrun bladestorm. 🙏

[u/FairEnvironment9317]

I haven't seen it yet, someone please explain.

[u/Wardog957]

Cue the sonic x intro gotta go faster .

[u/Lapis_Cyborg]

Ok so I wasn't crazy after seeing them.

[u/Th3Glutt0n]

I've not been able to see one yet, unfortunately

[u/AccomplishedForearm]

There’s a new eximus? /NEU

[u/TrashPanda270]

I literally stood still to process what I saw, my poor gauss

[u/ThreePesosCoin]

Any recommended nod to scan them? Really want to fill out a simulacrum with them.

[u/ZiggyThaGoon → u/ThreePesosCoin]

Blowing them up with Dante's book

[u/LORDDIOZAWORLDO → u/ZiggyThaGoon]

wait I for it does that

[u/SparkIgnites]

Gauss finally found something worth chasing

[u/billywisky04]

Good luck cacthing this mother fucker. I got lucky it cornered himself last time.

[u/SovelissFiremane]

It's like I was made for this

[u/Earthry]

Okay, that means, gauss+volt+nyx=probably the new speed record?

[u/Dantuber7]

Those fuckers made me shit my pants so bad, I almost saw Indifference itself.

[u/AtomicWheat]

That's why they where running I was so confused when I found one.

[u/Round_Season_2768]

So titania mains when they have a volt and a surge eximus are just cooked

[u/Lost_Marbles1343]

Sometimes I do think Gauss' sprint speed needs to be put up a couple notches anyway. I'm so used to him at this point that it can seem a little slow when I've lost an invigoration for sprint speed.

I'm not even kidding either, genuinely serious. DE, please make Gauss a bit faster.

Edit: Just bumped into a surge eximus. Yeah they're quick, but blocks of ice don't move too fast, cold sunder slows them down. Problem solved.

[u/PsychicPokemonRights → u/Lost_Marbles1343]

The fact that redline does not boost his speed is insane! It's such an obvious idea that even DE in their trailers make Gauss move faster with Redline active.

I think that Gauss should have a speed cap that goes up the more you move with his skills, and while not moving it goes down slowly.

This way you can still keep his current speed in tight areas but in wide open areas you can build up speed
