This aint the next episode of incarnomania (yes im calling it that now) but just a little realization, there are no good vazarin melee mods
There's one good one in galvanized elementalist
The rest are either niche or unusable
So since a good number of vazarin mods on frames are defective, aswell as some of the melee ones, I was thinking of some mod ideas, aswell as some changes, starting with the changes
1: shattering impact armor decrease 6 -> 15
This is to make it less niche and actually usable on some melee archetypes outside of gunblades
2: healing return: healing per status will be changed from a flat heal to a % heal, im thinking...around 1 to 2% max hp per status
3: drifting contact: adds a additonal 20% status chance per combo count.
Spring loaded blade: stacks 3 times and adds a flat 10% base follow through.
And now for the new idea.
Bulked blade: adds 20% (modded) melee damage per 100 armor your warframe currently has
This means that yes, armor buffs from abilities and other sources will buff up this mod aswell.
Do let me know what you think, primarily of the new mod idea, the other changes are admittedly iffy at best.
