It’s the end of the week, and that means a new devstream for Warframe has been published. Along with a number of exciting reveals, developers Digital Extremes has detailed upcoming changes coming to Warframe’s Railjack Revisited update.

Down below you’ll find a list of planned changes coming to Railjack Revisited. Do note, this is not a complete changelog, and once the update is fully published (no ETA) we’ll be sure to let you all know the juicy details.

Warframe Railjack Revisited Upcoming Changes

General Changes:

• Doubled the Railjack’s innate loot-pickup (Vacuum) Range.
• Changing the pacing and general feel of all Railjack Piloting and movement to be less reliant on the optimal strategy of “Single strafe Boost then Repeat”:
  • Doubled the Raijack’s base Speed.
  • Lowered Boost Speed by 75%
  • Increased the Boost Speed cost of dodge.
  • Increased Boost Drain (8 – 15)
• Made scale a factor in damage reduction and bonuses. This means Archwings and their weapons will do more damage to ships, while also taking less damage from them.
• Fixed inconsistencies with the sensitivities of the emplacement positions (side turrets now match the pilot turret)

Ship Combat Changes:

• Changed all Health, Shield, and Armour to use the new Tenno versions introduced in Warframe Revised.
• Halved the Health and Armour of all Griner Fighters.
• Randomized the number of Fighters required to be killed during the Extermination portion of the Skirmish mission so it’s not always the same.
• Decreased the amount of time between landing the killing shot to the enemy explosion on Fighters (.1 – 1 sec) down from (1-3) seconds. The effect of this will be not only a quicker pace but also a quicker time to spawn any drops.
• Decreased Railjack Shield Recharge delay from 5 to 3 seconds.
• Railjack Weapon heat build-up changes:
  • Apoc – Sigma/Lavan/Nidar heat build-up reduced from 20 to 12. Zekti from 40 to 20
  • Carcinoxx – Sigma/Lavan/Nidar heat build-up reduced from 10 to 8. Zekti from 20 to 12
  • Cryophon – Zekti from 400 to 350
  • Photo( – Sigma/LavanNidar heat build-up reduced from 10 to 8. Zekti from 20 to 12

On-Foot Combat Changes:

• Reduced the Health of all on-foot Gnneer Railjack enemies by half.
• Removed scaled damage controllers from all on-foot Gnneer Railjack enemies.

Pacing Changes:

• Added Caps for the amount of simultaneous Railjack Hazards (Fire, Electric, and Breaches). Your Railjack can only have 1 of each Hazard active at a time.
• Drastically decreased the frequency of RJ Hazard types.
• Made each RJ Hazard type more harmful to the ship.
• Increased the amount of Omni Revolite required to remove hazard events but increased the XP gained.
• Increased the number of fighters in all alert stages.
• Enemies now spawn much closer to the Railjack vs. 1000. km away.

Archwing Changes/Fixes:

• Longstanding issues with the usability of Archwing Melee has been fixed – it’s whacking day -let us know!
• Archwing Melee Range mods now affect aim assist lock-on range.
• Archwing Gun stats normalized – space combat now uses ground ‘Heavy Weapon- stats.
• UI Lead indicator has been added to relevant Archwing Guns.

Systemic Changes:

• The Kuva Lich ‘Valence Transfer’ has been added for built Armaments and Components-players can now Transfer progress and stats to the new better parts, boosting them.
  • Requires Dirac to perform the operation
  • Combining matching tiers gives 10% boost in stats
  • Combining lower tier gives 5% boost in stats,
  • Two tiers removed (Mk3 with Mk1) is 2% boost

Affinity and Intrinsic Gain Changes:

• Doubled Affinity-to-Intrinsic Point conversion. You will now gain Intrinsics 2x faster.
• Increased the earned Affinity on killing Elite Fighters and Outriders.

Avionics Changes:

When it comes to Avionics changes, there’s an overarching goal: Simplify Avionic management.

• Each Integrated Avionic Type will now only exist with a single Manufacturer rather than three Manufacturer flavors.
• The ‘retired’ Integrated Avionics will be removed from the player’s inventory via a script.
• The remaining Integrated Avionic for each Type will take on the values of the previously highest valued Avionic of its Type.
• ALL Dirac used to upgrade Integrated Avionics will be refunded. This applies to both retired and remaining Avionics
• ALL remaining Integrated Avionics will have their Upgrades drained.

These changes will be available in their test-cluster (test server), which should be going live later today for invited participates.
