Why? Well, regardless, they're pretty much stuck with them now unless DE are willing to implement different models for the Siphon and different enemies to go along with it, but there are easier solutions, which I'll go over in the final portion of this post.)Ģ: THE UI AND THE LOTUS ARE STRAIGHT-UP LYING TO YOU (Seriously, they could have chosen ANY OTHER NAME OR VISUAL DESIGN for the Braids, and ANY OTHER ENEMIES TO ACCOMPANY IT, and yet they chose the ones that had the most potential to confuse the player due to information the game had previously taught them. Instead, all the boss fight did was teach the player instructions that don't apply to these missions, despite sharing the elements of Kuva Guardians + the Siphons straight-up having the QUEEN'S BRAIDS on them. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that TWW's final boss had the potential to act as a stealth-tutorial to the Siphon missions to come, and it would have made complete sense to design the Siphon missions to better fit how the boss fight played out. But of course, this is completely wrong, even though it's a completely logical conclusion to come to given what the game has taught the player at this point.Īnd so, unless you're in a team of people who know what they're doing, odds are you'll end up going through the entire Siphon process trying different methods of hurting the Siphon ("Maybe I need to fire my Operator beams at it, or maybe I just didn't kill enough of the Kuva Guardians, etc). I'm supposed to kill enough Kuva Guardians and the Siphon will become vulnerable! That makes sense! After all, that's how it worked in TWW! You killed the Guardians and the Braids became vulnerable to physical attack!" Then, the Lotus says "Those are the Queen's Braids. the design of the Siphon and its Braids look familiar, but from where. You recognize the Kuva Guardians from when they were first introduced in TWW, that is to say, as goons you're supposed to kill in order to make the Queen's Braids vulnerable. Let's break down why:įor the sake of argument, let's say you're a player who's entering a Siphon mission for the first time after beating TWW. A few players in the previous threads I've made on this topic have brought up that they initially thought that TWW's final boss fight was meant to act as a sort of tutorial for the Siphon missions, which served to mislead them quite a bit.
