Warframe's Update Turns Nightwave Weekly Into a Hilarious Horror

Warframe has introduced a recent quality of life update that simplifies defense missions by reducing the number of waves from five to three, making gameplay quicker. However, this adjustment has inadvertently complicated a Nightwave weekly mission that requires players to complete 20 waves for a reward. The new format demands players actually complete 21 waves, effectively requiring seven rotations to fulfill the Nightwave quest, which can frustrate players unprepared for the extra grind. Despite the challenges, the update makes defense missions less time-consuming and adds comedic elements due to the unexpected difficulty shift. Players are encouraged to team up and strategize, utilizing this new format to complete their challenges more effectively.

The update optimizes defense missions by reducing the number of waves needed for completion, but it complicates a specific Nightwave weekly mission that requires players to actually finish more waves than before.
