planned
I think they just dumped them
The Orokin/Anarchs clearly were. /j
-# unless you are an orokin
ender you beat me to it
Isnt tau a system and not a planet?
yes
I think it's both.
The system is called Tau, but there is probably also a planet named Tau.
Assuming the Drifter is even partially to be trusted.
Roathe’s chats reveal that not many Orokin got to Tau before all the events went down.
I think it’s fairly realistic that they didn’t have a seed bank set up
So when we explore Tau do we get planets or a planet
If it’s Xenoflora you can be Xenophobic
thts why im hoping tht next year we get a new star chart
The quest shows Tau and its many moons, so it’s likely all of them
(Although I heavily disagree with the Drifter's assessment of Wally. I don't care who DE sends he's a conceptual embodiment!)
u can be xenophobic to anything if u try hard enough i suppose
They said the rest of the update comes next year
Thats why we cant wall run
yes we go to tau next year
thts different to the tau update
Wall running was delayed. Tau was always planned to be next year.
there'll probably be an echoes update at the start of the year and at the end of they year we go to tau
There’s players assuming DE will automatically give us tons of planets straight away when not even the Origin System was built up that way
I think it’s more likely to line up around Tennocon
I hope it's going to be 3 with around 3-5 nodes each, with one new gamemode per planet/moon.
I dunno why these numbers, just seems right.
Less they give the more they can expand later
Frankly speaking, The Old Peace isn’t big enough, it’s more the size of an echoes update….
Old Peace was announced to be 2026, so I hope it makes it around Tennocon
I wonder if its going to be past or present that we get to see tau
Rebb said present.
Present day
We’ve already seen it in the past so the only way forward is present
(It’s big enough because of the Operator rework for sure)
I just mean lore-wise
Update seems big enough for me
ok so timeline
-sentients go to tau
-sentients gain sentience through the xenoflora bloom
-sentients and the orokin go to war
-ballas somehow ends up in charge of the tau system (possibly because he was somewhat friendly with both the warmonger and peaceful executors
-old peace happens
-tenno gets put into the dream
-margulis gets glassed
-ballas defects and snitches to hunhow
-hunhow sends a sentient mimic to spy on the orokin and take control of the tenno
-war wages on
-naga drums signal both the orokin winning the war and the tenno assassination of the orokins
-BIG SLEEP
-present
Xenoflora happens after the war starts.
Echoes updates only really add a new node or mission to a location
so thenw hy did the war start if the sentients werent sentient
It wad the Jade Light.
The hivemind was Sentient.
i thought those 2 were one and the same
Story-wise? If you line it up against things like The Hex, and Whispers?
It felt rather short
The individual Sentients only became autonomous due to the Xenoflora.
Jade Light is actually seen as the better punishment in Orokin society
But I definitely think Roathe’s KIM is gonna drop a lot more lore
The Xenoflora "shared" the sentience between the Sentients.
For a lack of a better term.
No.
Glassing turned you into a Cephalon.
Feels about the same to me
The Jade Light simply destroyed/burned you to death.
Turning into a Cephalon was also pure agony, if you go by Suda’s accounts
Orokin society 3 known punishments
Warframing
Glassing
Jade Light
shhhhhhh
And according to Roathe glassing was probably the worst.
huh, idk how but all this time my brain decided they were the same thing
And being chased down by Kavats, according to Roathe
yep cause it technically doesn't kill you
I must have missed that, when is this mentioned, lol.
Descendia
Even worse, it lets the Orokin modify your memories.
says they used to release Kavats to chase down convicts
Honestly this one sounds kind of funny.
Cruel, but funny.
Modern Grineer do it with Drahks
"Release the lions kavats!"
unrelated but Valdur is such a chill guy I wanna bring him to the present
He's homies with the 'Sents
Grineer only do it to kill Infestation don’t they rather than punishment
i feel like it was way more dense though.
alot of sentient lore
orokin politics
commandeered warframes (the ascaris)
aidis' left over energy possibly being the reason why we out warframes can self revive (theory)
Rhino protoframe when?
rhino protoframe is just 'The Mountain'
ah i know why they got lumped together in my mind. I probably remembered nora talk about the jade light and getting glassed they they got mixed up
Yeah I see your point. It is ALOT more new information that we weren’t hinted at before.
yeah I also mixed them up before dw
When we're ready to handle such great THICCNESS (also when it happens, DE should give him a special dialogue when you do an all pink color palette)
Yeah
Would be peak.
Just a little easter egg of some kind for the pink Rhino fans
rhino protoframe is tht buff korean actor probably
proto rhino
I saw really cool fanart of proto-Seva where the Shadow's claws were munition belts
idk how they'd handle proto-sev's actual Shadow tho, both visually and lore-wise. Maybe have it be more a manifestation of the Helminth like Lizzie is to Flare
Actually him being based on a sumo wrestler would be a neat lore idea
Grendel Proto would be better sumo wrestler
That would probably make the most amount of sense.
I guess they could make it several people in one but that feels more Xaku/Equinox territory.
Actually, I would love to see an Equinox proto.
make it so Proto-sev died and came back to life as the protoframe. one foot in the grave one foot out
homophobia in their eyes ❤️
Realistically I think they're still only sticking to early gen frames/ any that can easily fit into the lore
so the Shadow would be him possessing his own body like a revenant (not the warframe)
Have it him be bipolar or something
tht would be so cool
oh yeah 100%
Also nobody talking about the possibility of a proto-Nekros
proto sevagoth is never happening but it's fun to think about since he's one of the most unique and imo. coolest frames
Nokko protoframe is just a Hippie from the 70s 
Yeah but clearly it's not a rule, more like guidelines. cough Wisp cough
should be Viktor for the name alone
Proto Rhino, Ember and Loki also still red to happen
he got so high he turned into a shroom
Watch Proto-Loki never happening.
I swear DE forget of his existence...
seems like it's loki's turn to be at the bottom of the foodchain after the oberon rework
DE already said they aren’t adding new Protos unless it makes sense to add them
She's not early gen, but clearly DE found a way to fit her into the overall proto lore. Maybe far into the future they do the same for Sev somehow but I wouldn't bet on it
Sadge
I'm still not a huge fan of Wisp as the nun, feels more like she got picked for popularity and ass memes
idk, theyre kinda already pushing it with the XX99 protoframes
Too bad Pablo said they aren't reworking him...
100% its for the ass
yeaaah maaan, this serum that old geezer who talks in monotone gave me started making me see these lil mushroom dudes, maaaan.
next thing you know, I'm the lil mushroom dude, craziest trip of my life dude
omg its shaggy
fellow sevagoth enjoyer............ personally I envision him to be super edgy/emo that'll give arthur (and maybe lyon idk him yet) a run for his money
they also said they rnt gonna rework chroma 😔
Since they, with Limbo and Loki (which are very unlikely to happen) were the most requested.
Huh, when did that happen?
I must have missed it.
people kept asking them during livestreams and devshorts and theyve been consistent with not reworking him anytime soon
is there any indication as to whether there were any actual orokin on board the zariman
Banshee, then, probably.
Almost certainly no.
considering the only orokin presence we see in the zariman is audio recordings and holograms id bet on no
I guess not entirely out of the question but it's safe to assume there weren't any.
they 100% knew tht ship was cooked
Highest in command was Quinn and Yonta, and neither of them are Orokin
they were among the highest non-Orokin castes tho
Not until Albrecht
i see
thanks yall 👍
an extremely gay man to honour Liger
with like "Wraith" as his callsign or something
my boy sevagoth is SERVING
(Wraith was the original name for Sevagoth's concept)
I put Dante's noble animation on him
Ass so solid it's hardtack
can't get more edgy than that, Arthur doesn't even have a cool callsign besides like idk Nightingale and that's just his name
Only Grendel compares.
tbf having Nightingale as your surname is extremely edgy
that's fair XD
while I'm not the biggest fan of Sevagoth Prime's design in a vacuum, it is imo. the best of all the primes in terms of connecting the prime design to the base design
Base looks like an eroded/mummified corpse of the Prime, which could very well be that his body and Shadow were eroded by the Void like the Tempestarii was
GAAAHHHHHHDAYUUUMMMM
im thinking about if there is any way a lore accurate orokin tenno would work but i do not think so
not really, no
theyd have to be on the ship so yeah probably no
none of the Tenno were Orokin from the start, and I heavily doubt a Tenno would be allowed to become Orokin if they were even willing
you could say a rebelious orokin teen managed to sneak onto the ship
to spite their orokin parents
YEAH!! I noticed too I specifically looked and his spur thingies also look connected between base and prime, with the base like snapped/eroded partway or smth
I personally like Sevagoth Prime's design (aside from the hair curlers) mostly because of his hat and how fancy he looks
oooh true that is a good idea
Orokin sent people who wouldn’t matter to Tau Orokin class would be considered too important to send
yeah the first Orokin to go beyond Sol was that Executor who took the Sol-Tau Rail's maiden voyage
since we're on the topic of the ship zariman. i noticed tht one of the locations we go to in the quest was the zariman five something
and they called it a world seeder i believe
yep
seems "Zariman" was the classification for all Tau expeditionary ships
the Ten-Zero was a colonist ship
my newly blue operator has good drip so i might as well wrangle some lore together on how that'd happen, and i think it's an interesting concept to explore
the Five-something was a World-seeder
a lil more tasteful, I think 😝
I see
we do see the same type of interior as the Orbiter has
so maybe the Orbiter is a Zariman-class vessel too
still huge dumpy
~~wait why is it like 1 second, I recorded like 13 whole seconds........ oh well 😔 ~~
this is true thought tht might just be what most ship internals looked like for the time
alt-tabbed or had a different recording
I do love the idea of Zariman being a ship manufacturer type deal
I didn't though... I used the windows screen record feature
but eh it's whatever you get the idea XD
wish I were at home so I could drop my Sevagoth fashion
I wish his deluxe wasn't bugged still
arm and jellyfish shoulder glow white regardless of your emissives and energy
that's unintentional? qwq I ended up fashioning his deluxe to be like gold and glowing blue
i mean i incorporated it into my fashion, since the deluxe made me think of a souls-boss
yeah in all the promo pics it's blue
something to do with the "new" lighting engine
Anyone remember in which interview did they confirm that Alad V is alive?
Trying to find it but there are so many post-tennocon interview.
Most recent Alad thing there is iirc
I'm like 99% sure there was some confirmation of his survival post-Tennocon. The exact wording was something like "alad v is still out there" or something like that. Hmm, weird.
Which of the interviews had the confirmation regarding the Zariman coming after the Sentients?
I am fully willing to bet Alad is still alive. Just is more a matter of time for when he shows up again... My bet is that it'll be with Tau or something related.
Ok, looking back at the history of this chat, it was in a stream.
Bruh, now to find the specific one.
Sorry for the ping, do you happen to remember which stream this was in?
They said on stream that he is
He went into hiding after the new war
Can someone go to builds and help ya boy out cause I am struggling😔
Also I was hyped to see the kaithes in the campaign ngl
Horsie 🙂
Which stream though.
I know it happened.
I just can't for the life of me remember which one.
That is the nature of dev streams
(Of the very many, many pre and post tennocon streams)
This was post tennocon
But it was a devstream, right?
That narrows it down.
It was a weekly one I think
Devshort?
Wait no
@eager dragon I've found it
Warframe Old Peace deep dive: Uriel’s weapon breakdown, 4 new frames, and dev chat insights.
So I got to sit down with Megan and Rebecca and have a casual chat with them about everything Old Peace and the devstream this month. It is just a casual chat, and I couldn't ask about spoilers for obvious reasons.
🎮 Play Warframe
(It’s free, ...
It was a tactical potato interview all along
I ran through reddit with the search "Alad V" and sorted by latest until I found the summary post

I tried to do that and couldn't for the life of me find it.
Granted I was doing it on mobile
Which was definitly not helping, lol
Oh, I had it set to relevance instead of new, that's why I couldn't find it.
"Ah transference, what a gift Margulis gave us" - Roathe when we leave him
I'm assuming he is talking about Transference Therapy, which was developed by Margulis to help the Tenno interact with others with out the risk of killing/maiming them.
Which was then weaponised by the Orokin.
Yeah
but he said that when we hop out of a warframe though
We had the ability specifically innately
if it just therapy then why he mentioned it (also a lot of his voiceline stated he does not like when we hop in and out)
"Which was then weaponised by the Orokin"
It was inteneded as a way for the Tenno to interact with others with no risk of harm, but was then used by the Orokin to control the warframes after they found out it was possible.
See: The Silver Grove and the Rhino Prime codex entry.
I know that
but what he said could also mean the Tenno was able to do that because of Margulis too
The Tenno were almost certainly capable of doing that innately, what I think actually happened is that Margulis helped the Tenno to control that ability (as with alot of the other Tenno powers).
I doubt that it's 100% due to Margulis.
Up until Old Peace quest, it seem like we could only go in warframe (proto still the same kind)
so how did the Orokin even know we could do that innately?
rhino codex
How do the solar rails work?
Maybe he’s just assuming Margulis gave it to us or is referring to her helping us to focus our abilities
Void Magic
No like is it a tp point or does it fold space?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
the answer is yesn't
All ships hold, the rail is punching through. Rail charging, continue to hold. Rail over capacity, please divert into holding pattern."
suppose you can assume it that way because iirc they use void tech too
and void is like... unspace and untime or smth
It is just a way to fast travel between rail to rail
Railjacks actually work independently of the rail network
I'm starting to wonder if what we did in the rhino's codex was even transferece
or did the Tenno just project their consciousness into that wild frame to calm it down
It was transference
anyone here a big expert on transference lore? i need help understanding something
That’s how the Orokin discovered we could do transference
I mean
when we do transferece we usually can control whatever
it doesn't seem like we did control the rhino there
just calm it down
like we did with Umbra
That’s literally the backbone of how transference works
Ok, I just listened to one of Roathe's KIM voice messages regarding the Sentients.
Interestingly, it seems to imply that the Sentients, atleast at first, came to war with the Orokin because of... their own programming, in a way?
It confirms the Sentients attacked first
Zairman jump - void accident- teno return to pilot frames- orkin use solar rail to get to tau- then old peace
Yes, but it's the reason they attacked that makes it interesting too me.
Atleast, the way it's implied that it was the reason for the attack.
Do we know what the hive mind is?
Hunhow/Praghasa and the like
You missed
Sentients created
Orokin got impatient
If that's what you mean.
Ah okay
(To my understanding, there may be more I am not aware of yet, I can't wait to go through all of Roathe's dialogue and messages)
Wait what do you mean sentients created i thought they were from tau?
The Orokin made the Sentients
To terraform Tau and build the Solar Rails
Sentients were created in the Origin System then sent to Tau where Tauborn Sentients were also then created
So we never meet tau natives?
and then the sentients realized what they were doing and came back with one hell of a grudge
The only Tau natives are the Xenoflora
Huh
Which is destroyed by the end of the Old Peace.
And the Tauborn Sentients
Okay so I was missing that
Yes, to some degree, but I wouldn't call them "natives".
Not for the sake of this discussion, atleast.
How will it take me to get liked status with the hex members?
Maybe by tomorrow if you’ve been doing it daily
I haven't touched it at all
do their missions, talk to them in kim messenger, depending on whether you have see all messages enabled it might take longer
Then maybe around a week
also depends on how much you gift stuff to each member since iirc thats a separate factor
Yeah
but I think I got it in like 2 weeks or so?
Oh
With the Hex there’s many variables
oh yeah, if you give them the good gifts

I sucked at figuring out their gifts though, and I had the see all messages before rank up enabled
The more gold text you get plus bounties and gifts
So maybe a week if you’re doing it correctly
Arthur - cooking
Aoi - music
Quincy - Entrati stuff
Amir - tech/games
Eleanor - writing stuffs
Lettie - medical supplies and general disaster relief stuff
aaaa i misread your message, ah well at least its here for those who haven't become friendly with the hex
well see when you say cooking I assumed coffee maker goes to Arthur instead of Lettie
and since Arthur has his beloved motor bike that he doesnt let anyone touch, I thought the gas can goes to him as well
but no, he likes propane tank XD
nope, Aoi likes gasoline tho
exactly!
it was only later that I learned Aoi is the team mechanic therefore takes the gasoline!
i just felt bad gifting lettie copious amounts of plastic cups and stuff lol
so... it probably would just be faster to look up a guide for positive responses and gifts XD
I will say it was rlly funny when my friends in vc heard me crying over Arthur out of context saying "nooooo why won't you love meeeee........ here have a propane tank qwq"
for sure, only like 3 of them basically flatout tell you stuff they like or in Quincy's case hate
Quincy also likes mobile phones
Lettie also likes the honkshoomimi stuff (pillow)
Eleanor likes plants
Arthur be my friend, here's a brand new microwave, idk how you'll use it out in the field, but take it please!
or the worst one i did, a single pack of pencils for Eleanor.
no notepad, just pencils
cardboard boxes for Lettie, but at least thats bc of her rats
And coffee too
Anything coffee for Lettie will make her happy since, y'know, minimum wage worker
Guys
I didn't understand
What did Uriel do to deserve his fate?
i believe the fact that margulis was killed to be a lie made up by the orokin as margulis now speaks as if shes the exact same margulis from then, also the fact the orokin can practically restore anything would allow ballas to restore the eyesight, maybe the orokin altered her body to be more like a sentient or she was a sentient from the very beginning who knows because at this point i am doubting everything that we first thought to truth
or as punishment her consciousness put into natah
if her body truly was hit by jade light
margulis and Lotus isn't the same person
we currently have Lotus
i am just extremely doubting after old peace
Margulis was executed after the Old Peace, if that's what you are asking.
nope its the radiant in the quest
i am doubting that happened
or if it happened that she truly died

Why?
the ammount of plot twists and plans ballas has....it scares me
But that’s literally not a plot twist in the quest
They’ve never been the same person
And DE intend to keep it that way
hmm
She goes over it on the ropalolyst fight, doesn't she?
a sentient made to be a spy
act as a replacement margulis
then do what margulis couldn't
Margulis wouldn’t need to be a spy she was already our mother
but she couldnt either as she viewed them as her own children
the transmission margulis gives us on the information about the ayatan treasure is misleading
cmon dont tell me we never find uriel after the old peace like cyte who disappeared
Yes, but we do not know if that was her doing or if Ballas edited (or fully faked) the message.
I think it's due to the long sleep of the tenno beginning
so we never found him damn bro
Lotus also never had void beamed eyes in cutscenes though she can now as a skin
tbf Uriel (afaik) was gay baby jailed in Tau and the solar rails kinda got broken
hope we uncover the story of cyte WHEN cyte prime comes out damn
if margulis and current space mom are different physical people then i am 100% convinced she got a punishment like becoming an cephalon but was used to create the "perfect" margulis replacement using natah
Most likely a temple situation
The frame causes chaos to the orokin, it gets buried
huh
i think he was jailed cuz he tried to kill the orokin and the sentients out of hatred the old peace revealed alot i think they made the warframes move and do stuff
she always wore a helmet UNTIL ballas showed up
Margulis was literally Jade Lighted to death and Lotus is alive
yes but the orokin looove to turn others into cephalons
They literally cannot be the same person
that would make sense I think, maybe Roathe commanded his army of Uriels? but then he got yoinked
physically no
yall think styanax prime is gonna have a big event since hes one of DE fav frames?
roathe isnt even the original uriel, uriel prime is
lotus doesn't have all the memories of margulis
lotus was created based on balla's memories or was tenno's memories of margulis, I don't actually remember from whom now
50th prime yk
wait is it 50th prime
yes, but the Uriels were created from his battalion
uriels?
Wouldn't that also mess with like...all the development lotus has had at this point. Being molded to be margulis and having identity problems throughout. To then just be margulis actually
Paladino believes lotus's margulis impression was made based on tenno memories
yes, uriels. plural
they fed the AI scraped data about Margulis XD
Iirc there were multiple copies of each frame we know
she literally said in the quest she also is healing from going over what happened during old peace
and 1 prime copy right?
I am talking about the primes
oi
every soldier bearing the name "URIEL" turns into the frame eventually
Since
Y'know
The primes were the original
They weren't.
Oh right
Roathe did say that
some and some are not
you can hear the story if you ask Roathe "Devil of Tau?" in Cathedrale iirc
Not all of them, no.
Jade was the original. And look, she's not a prime.
They werent
yeah yeah but uriel prime i thought uriel is the prime until i heard uriel prime and uriels
thank you for freshing my memory
Roathe expands on that too, I think in the same conversation
Go speak to Varzia
It is still just palladino's pov so grain of salt and all that
I get it damn
the Uriel prime was someone Roathe personally knew, his battalion got turned into Uriels, and now Roathe is also turning into one
he also mentions the original Uriel, he knows his real name but calls him uriel prime, remember nova getting a prime a year later? next year is also a tau update
i think he said uriel prime isnt his real name and that he will tell more on his death bed
Ye
Sounds to me like it was someone precious to him
yes! that one
but Roathe himself isnt the Uriel prime
Ye
at least that's what I took from the convo
ik cuz he said he met uriel prime.
Me too
So
Will we watch him die and lose access to talking to him, kinda like Teshin?
Roathe doesn’t ever say he is Prime he says he was there for the hatching of Prine
I forgot how to trade oraxia stuff
upon us reviving ourselves near the end for just a moment our eyes glow red just like every other character that were either influenced by or controlled by wally
make him into a cephalon in his honor
Arthritis
Ironic
ur asking me cuh? maybe on day of uriel prime.
oh thanks
i have that
We all do
ballas turning into a half sentient is kinda comical considering what we learned from old peace
Damn Arthritis selling the cure for Arthritis
the cure to arthritis is replacing the entire bone with titanium
The cure is becoming a frame
Arthritis sells knitting implements for scutler husks
Well?
acrithis
orokin
u need more than that ?
Dont think we have had enough days to know yet
Rebellion
Who do u think is the tallest?
I mean
Not even the sentients like him very much
Wally
i think he tried to fight the orokin and the sentients cuz he knew the orokin are twisted maybe
Warframe wise
go look up "clone robotics" they essentially made a Warframe
Qorvex
Wouldn't atlas be?
Nah
frames are generally all the same height
Atlas is a neck too short
Bc he's a walking cement nuke?
limbo is prob tallest tho
no?
Because loooong head
His hat doesn't count
yes?
yesn't?
it's part of his flesh so
His hat is part of him
Like Lavos's heels
They're actually his feet
It is however removable
👀 oh geez
its funny how the devil frame gets a nuclear explosion like ultimate but the nuclear frame gets a sol gate²
Isn’t Dante the tallest technically?
!yes
Hard to tell cause float
all frame helmets are removable if you pry hard enough
Lmfao
Caliban maybe the tallest
short girl
and with sol gate² im talking same damage
nah
Doesn't wisp have sol gate
qorvex 4 is stronk
We should put all frames next to each other and measure them
Get a bunch of people besides a vending machine in a hollvania captura
only with his augment, max duration, efficiency, strength, universal orb arcane, equilibrium, duration and equilibrium shards
I’d prevent Wisp from cheating
yes
no, generally
Nah
atleast wisp can use breach surge and has a heal
opinions built on lvl cap stuff don't count
i dont do lvl cap
good
Breach surge is for anyone
i like to enjoy myself while playing a video game
you have brain
qorvex doesnt have a heal unless you use rolls of bandages
yeah the lack of self heal is a problem
his 2 is useless icl
qorvex tries to be a health tank but he can't restore it
atleast we can now sacrifice the devil frame to put a healing ability onto the nuclear bomb frame
yk what makes this funny
i was looking at alternate routes the conversation i just had with roathe could have gone, what is "Check boolean LoidFamilyComplete"??? i got the false/incomplete version of the conversation, which confuses me
the part that makes a nuclear bomb a nuclear bomb is what we call a demon core/devils core
uriels heal would be a core component of qorvexs kit
the joke writes itself
they planned it all along
Fairly sure it was related to the entrati syndicate
i have that maxed
Any warframes that are canonically 6 feet tall?
Bc I'm a bookworm who reads romance and romance readers love their 6 foot male Main characters
There isnt a cannonical height as far as i am aware
Just start measuring all 112 Warframes heights
But shouldn't caliban be apart of tau, as he was built due the alliance of orokin and sentients?
caliban prime was
Base caliban wasnt?
base caliban was made by erra during the old war
Oof still tho. Feel like he should play a huge part in anything to do with the old war
It's just another warframe as far as story is concerned
He’s in the Vanguard
He got kidnapped by Galastria or whatever her name is with the leg thing from Awakening
Or at least a tenno was using a caliban prime when galastria captured them
We were also in the Prime Vanguard if the who they’re reserved for thing is accurate
And honestly as much as people complain of not being able to keep excalibur prime, him being apart of old peace is very lore accurate, first to be made and first to be primed.
Even if warframe lore is a spider web of knowledge
im perfectly okay with ExcalP staying in the past and it makes logical sense for the newer Tenno since we ditched him for the chained up madness Albrecht (possibly) made
-# with Roathe talking about 'Uriel Prime' its 50/50 if the Uriel we control is the original Roathe or a copy made by Ballas/Anarchis for what ever reasoning
Nah, I think Ballas made Uriel but Albrecht made Proto
Is the case 90% of the time
Temple is the sort of exception
Even then Ballas made the design
but roathe is an orokin no?
Yeah
Yeah, what about it?
? i think they used a dna of uriel on him?
Roathe had his buddies turned into Uriel's by some awful person before he was even proto'd.
Or anything
into uriels yes but that doesnt mean he is a proto made by albrecht
Infected with the strain
Roathe himself flat out says Albrecht was the one to Proto him.
That’s literally all it means
ooh u mean fuse uriel dna like what he did with authur and eleanor and other right?
Proto also doesn't mean first frame
The exact same thing, yes.
ik
So the batch already existed before he got it
As is the case with 99% of Protos
Temple being an exception
Ballas was still involved with that though
I just got the grimoire of zenurik and saw a clip of father lyon talking to rell how dose know him ???
as far as we know, albrecht created protoframes as a whole.
for a loop to escape from wally aint that right?
protos are people who have been given just enough helminth that they begin to transform slowly
ik
probably some wonky eternalism voodoo.
or since Rell finally let go of trying to hold back the Indifference, he assimilated into the indifference and through the helminth strain is able to connect with Lyon, similar to how Eleanor is able to chat it up with the Indifference
spitball theory btw, i haven't gotten that dialogue yet since Lyon is still smacking himself in the face for me
no, to create the vessels.
ik
The idea of the vessels came after
It was after loid pointed out the properties of the grey strain
But the protos arent directly tied into the loop no
I can show you the clip i saw if you want
true, he just created them to study the samples
sure
Ok 1 sec
the protos only exist as a sort of failsafe incase our personal frames were unable to be sent across the cube that is eternalism
-# this is just based on the dialogue choices in GIM w/ Roathe
is that why?
what dialogue is that
KIM
@ashen pulsar here
Drifter only poses it as a theory not fact
yeah ik that.
hey did the orokin upgrade nidus to prime or they made nidus prime as a copy and nidus a copy
iirc its with Roathe when you ask him how he ended up in La Cathedrale, not at home atm otherwise I would grab the chat.
and as nemesis said, its just drifters theory as to why Albrecht would run around hollivania stabbing people with his serum
We dunno.
at least one reason was to collect DNA samples to study a way to fight the indifference, there may be more
I believe nidus primed himself i don't remember the full thing but there's a theory i know that support it
primed himself? or upgraded by the orokin or evolved by taking parts of orokin devices idfk
No
There's nothing that mentions how he was Primed.
Or if that was even how it was developed as a not-Prime first
No one knows
That's literally only a Lavos thing so far
Nidus has barely any lore.
Didnt ballas just talk in the trailer about throwing a ball of infestation into space that turned into nidus prime?
interesting. judging from the fact that he has a donda on his table, there may be a connection between him and rell through the harrow strain.
Yeah so that's interesting
When
I'm pretty sure that was meant to be them throwing Nidus out into space and it comes back.
Nidus prime trailer
Been too long, dont remember enough
But of course, no mention on if they're talking about Prime or not, as with all the Prime trailers lmaoooooooo
Just remember the part about throwing infestation into space and it being nidus prime trailer
btw someone sent an interesting video of the chains of harrow trailer that pointed out how you can see uriel's silhouette in the trailer
😂
no no i think they created nidus saw his abilitys then upgraded him to prime
Fairly sure that would be just halucinated
According to what DE said they only decided on making uriel after minky died
Again, we don't know that. Could've just as easily been Prime from the start. We know Parvos got a not-Prime even when we're looking at the Prime trailer with him talking to Ballas about Protea.
I want to believe he find a way to prime himself because he can evolve with the infested and with his power
URIEL, The Devil-frame was in Chains of Harrow.
I’ve been digging into Uriel—the new devil-themed Warframe—and something clicked.
There’s this mysterious figure in the original Chains of Harrow trailer from 2017… and it looks a lot like Uriel. Same shape, same vibe. Could this frame have been teased years ago and we just didn’t not...
Yeah just youtuber halucination
some warframes are concept for years
but i dont think uriel is one
it's odd and idk how accurate, still interesting tho
Its on youtube so not accurate at all
Jokes aside it just doesnt match up with irl timeline of uriel development
Because putting uriel in game was a special project after minky passed away
ig it's just another one of rell's apparitions then
I mean that kinda looks more like a slightly altered versions of Harrow rather than Uriel to me
But until proven otherwise i will believe nidus found a way to prime himself be he can grow and evolve endlessly like balls said
no warframe can evolve into prime
oh wait maybe he did ifnd a way to prime himself but not by evolving
Lavos
We know one that did
Yes him
who?
Lavos
Also this isnt stated anywhere and both are helminth anyway
lavos didnt evolve into one.
Literally did
Well yeah but he found a way
he didnt evolve he found a way
To Prime himself
it has things that neither frame has and things that both do. it's weird (e.g. glowing part on the chest isnt on either frame, arm blades are on both)
thanks for completing
What the hell does "evolve" mean then
it also has a more rounded shoulder plate thing, which looks like Harrow's
definitely doesn't look like the apparitions that we see in the trailer. could've been a scrapped concept tho
interesting as it is, I think it makes more sense for it to be some form of Harrow considering Rell's connection to it
It doesn't really matter, he made himself Prime, there's nothing special about how it's done and since it was done via alchemy, it's clearly not that special outside of the Orokin forcably making it scares.
slowly turnning into a prime
Rell isn't as connected to Harrow as players think
and it has an emissive over the mouth like uriel. it could be neither as well, maybe a scrapped idea and all
We also don't know how long it took for him to become Prime...?
Like the distinction just does not matter.
I believe nidus found a way through the infestation because we know there is many forms of it and he use it in its most raw form so i believe he found a way to use it to become a prime
oi i didnt ask how long it took for him or how he became a prime
could even be a model that, when uriel was thought of, was modified to be uriel with no lore implications
wait the video is actually crazy
It isnt
whos that guy that kinda have mouth like uriel
Lore tuber videos dont really have any evidence
or idfk
could be! could also be like an altered version of a frame like Stalker (I think his body pattern is like excal, but with a unique helmet and skillset?) and the... uh the stalker disciples in steel path iirc were also like body patterns based on frames?
Again doesnt match irl timelines for uriel's development
Okay scrolling back up to see the context.
Yeah we don't know if they can't evolve to be Prime either. Just happens that the whole "how it's made" for Primes isn't given to us and DE can easily just make up different ways to give different Warframes access to it.
u do now sometimes DE devs scratch old designs and do new one?
DE have shown us minky's designs for uriel tho
like I said the model of a scrapped idea could've been modified when uriel was being developed.
And explained when they decided to put them in game, and why
in 2017? no it could have been a first model for a devil frame.
it isn't built like harrow and it has things uriel doesn't have, so we are curious what it could be
Please tell me you're joking.
Harrow was Rell's forever frame. My guy is literally intrinsically connected to him.
It's literally just lighting in a trailer
We know that ordis robot body was found in the sacrifice quest
I'm saying players ask
How can Harrow Prime exist if Rell is Dead
Is Harrow Proto related to Rell
Is Harrow this related to Rell
it definitely isnt nothing tho
please re read the lore, even i know you are wrong
it's not uriel and it's not harrow
literally is uriel
I'm not
you are
read my message after that
isnt what u said
I'm not saying he isn't connected at all
It looks more like one of the acolytes than it does Uriel to me, but that may just be because it's smudgey.
harro proto IS related to rell tho
depends
somehow
Harrow is literally a Rell thing. My man was buried in that frame, given to him to be his body when his human one failed so he could maintain keeping Wally at bay.
People keep acting like Rell's Harrow is that the only one that exists and that there can be literally nothing else related to Harrow that isn't tied to him directly. Like hell, I've seen people ask if Lyon is Rell's Harrow.
it could be a thing where its like with temple
If it's that angle, I can understand. Clearly the harrow strain exists outside of Rell's Harrow, right.
There is a difference between rell just having a harrow available to do that and people thinking harrow was made specifically for rell
there is no other harrow in lore
there were plenty of harrows, that's true. harrow as a frame isn't attached to rell, harrow prime really isn't, but rell is attached to harrow.
rell literally found harrow on a battlefield
Harrow Prime???
Can you find a quote for that?
and harrow proto is connected to rell in some way
besides prim
But not as attached as players try making it out to be
Point is, harrow isnt a rell exclusive thing
Yes
Rell had a harrow available
since he's studying a donda and references rell in dialogue as well
Rell is a user of Harrow
But not the source of every Harrow
rell is related to harrow, the harrow strain is not related to rell.
If it was any other Warframe people would just be asking the same stuff, just with like, throwing some other random name in there.
but you also said (or implied) that lyon wasn't related to rell and that's wrong
harrow prime looks like a spacemarine priest lol
Not in the sense players think he is
Is my point
fair. it's very unlikely that lyon becomes rell's harrow and would be too confusing
I know I said something like that but I mean directly, as in the weird "Lyon's his Harrow" thing or having talked to him outright, rather than him just being a Harrow and also having ties to Rell.
Not in the way that people think that lyon becomes rell's harrow (especially because he is right there, while rerrow is dust)
Players won't let Rell rest always trying to bring him into everything Harrow related
simplest answer is probably the right one.
People just need to shut up about Rell I was already sick of it from Duviri
And Umbra
And Garmi
WHO???
The Lighthouse guy
Yeah they also tried forcing that connection too
That a Duviri NPC?
Lost islands stuff
The common questions are
Is Dominus Rell
Is Garmi Rell
When we already know they can't be
????? did they get those questions from the void?
Garmi is the guy who got killed by Wally
You would be surprised
It comes from the same kind of thinking, that everything that is related to some specific thing must be connect to everything else that also involves that thing.
Duviri deals with emotions, Rell deals with emotions, so Rell must have some connection to Duviri.
Warframe players create some crazy theories
the real question is, is albrecht rell? in this essay, I will-
Lol
Rell from the future
Different kind of neurodivergent, if we're even going to label Albrecht as such.
He didn't actually die, just got sent into the void
And he returned through time travel
Creating a loop in which he becomes Albrecht
Somebody actually made a theory Rell isn't dead because the radio
Like the Radio is Wally doing stuff
Rap Tap Tap is something Wally invented
Players assume Rell created it
rap tap tap little piggy, you'll let me in
we said that probably before rell did, come to think of it
Oh god just had a nightmare vision where people start asking if operator is multiverse rell
Is Operator nightmare Rell? it makes perfect sense trust
Lol
Also old peace chat is going about usual business of missinforming people based on theories
Maybe, we can only hope
Lotus in literally every single main quest: “sorry I was being a bum and didn’t help you at all during the mission. Better luck next time.”
Hey this time she locked in and stopped the operator from being dragged away by the Murmur
Loid still cared more
Well yeah
Bro is just HIM
He raised Mother to the extent the Necroloid even commented they sounded so alike
He's serving
Bro is HIM. He is SHE. He is hurricane KATRINA 💥 💥
yk that one time i thought loid was gay until i played the 1999 quest
He is
Loid is gay lol
He's Albrecht's lover
yeah
car?
yk i have a pet car its my 23th pet car i killed the other 22 cuz i lose at gambling alat
slay girl slay 💅
No im not sober and i thought of Loid as a drag queen
also half of the 22 i killed i killed the other 11 cuz they scared me
i have been incorrect about the harrow part my bad
u are and i didnt wanna respond cuz i was watching
whos ironmouse? why is she so popular?
shes a very fun vtuber
theres thousands of vtubers i dont see fun in them
she aint fun too
shes diff, she can sing...very good
she aint a queen or a famous singer
TLDR
Vtuber with a rather severe health issue so she became one because it’s one of the few things she can do
Great singing voice for someone who can be an absolute gremlin 
haters be hating 😔
im not hater.
this
i told my parent i found a vtuber with a similar health issue i have and they were like "sooo you two talking?" cmon dad😭
thats not how it works nowadays 😭
idfk if i say i hate women then am gay and if i say i hate men i am straight what IF i say i hate women and men?
Vtuber with a proper backstory as far as i understand, also seems to have managed to land a good community
having a good community is rare nowadays 😭
i have huge respect to ironmouse how shes capable of still being able to do what she does
i dont mean it in a bad way, my words arent used well probably
Idk if it's already been discussed but if Sentients need that special tau bloom thing to gain sentience then.....how were any of the sentients we encountered in the origin system still self aware?
(tbc talking about Hunhow, Lotus, Erra, Old War Praghasa, etc)
I was just thinking about this
Think the accurate thing is to say they gain independence not sentience
Difference with and without is separation from hive mind and succeptibility to orders
My friend is saying uriel lore wise is faster than gauss because of his jumping speed to the tauron academy
That was my guess too, not so much that they all gained self awareness from the flowers but that the individual hive-entities that the Big Mommas (TM) controlled were able to separate themselves
Just wish it got more clarification in the quest
Think it gets explained pretty well when operator asks adis what being without the xenoflora pollen does
Without they get condemned to the life of a drone basically
That's fair, her speech patterns just made it a little difficult to parse LOL
Just like the ones we usually fight in the origin system
On a related note, were they teaching the sentients the principles of focus schools? Or were they actually trying to teach them how to harness the void?
Seemed some sort of cooperation technique
Like how we use our amps but less macabre
It would just be really messed up (and on-brand for Ballas) that they were instructing them to harness a force that would inevitably sterilize them
Oh! also! not to yap but how did Margulis put us to sleep without a transference matrix?
I suspect they were teaching them how to work with the tenno.
thaaatd probably make more sense
Do we have any lore on the heartbeat-like drums I'm hearing from one of the statues in the Sanctum?
The one getting its ||face|| stroked.
Also, why does Lyon (a priest of Lua) have a sun-symbol on the minimap?
Given how some of the Cavia rank up cutscenese are portrayed, I think it's meant to be a very deep version of the 'Rap Tap Tap' of the indifference
Lyon and Marie are acolytes of Dualism, Sol and Lua
If you get close to most other vessels they all have that, which I believe are meant to be their actual heartbeats.
Vessels are probably, according to that one piece of Albrecht notes, giant infested clones of Arthur made with grey strain infestation. Because the base template is human, it follows that they have organs like a heart.
Sol and Lua do appear to be the predominant religion in the pre-Orokin era Earth.
On a fun note given Arthur says the Scaldra have no clue about transference. Meaning think every different frame you use is someone else. Imagine the horrors when you roll up with demon frame now.
Arthur and Aoi, there are female Vessels in the labs as well
Or more likely an amalgam of all the 1999 protoframes
It just Dawned on me that Valdur may become a Protoframe (my guess is Rhino's). I feel like keeping him alive implies that DE has something planned for him in a future update, and since we have an Orokin Protoframe a Grineer or Corpus one seems natural.
Valdurhino
Oh, in case anyone had doubts about Roathe being part of the Anarch faction:
Valdur: "A rogue Executor and her lapdog. We need to get Itzam out of there now. I'm sending a shuttle. You clear a landing zone!"
Did the orokin completely dominate tau? After the ceasefire was broken
Or did they like, put more tenno in tau and completely wiped the sentients and...
Nah they were still getting rocked hard, it was not an easy fight
Oh yeah the orokin did get repelled didnt they, i think i hesrd that somewhere
Go into settings and select the “all conversations” option if you want
Takes longer but you don’t have to reset and start over if you want the other convos
Ok
No Lotus was meant to kill them, Margulis was executed for speaking out against their weaponisation (and use as a scapegoat later on)
Cephalons aren’t Sentients
And why would Hunhow lie about her being Sentient? Or even care about her to begin with
Rebecca’s secret account
I'd adore Valdur becoming the Rhino Protoframe. Feels very fitting.
Also I wonder if Galastra may become the Ember Protoframe.
i don't see Galastra protoframe happening.
I think she's been glassed and used as a training simulator as per the old peace prologue.
^
i don't see either of them attracting enough attention for albrecht to turn them into protos
nor being glassed to keep them alive
Lmfao
Guys its over, i killed the man in the wall
Watch Untitled - Copy by zzayv and millions of other Warframe videos on Medal. #warframe
Yeah?
Theres my proof
No tau in 2026 we all just go for early lunch
3 good stabbings and its all over
Holy shit
He is supposed to be in the chamber area but he wasnt so i guess its over
Albrecht did alla that just so we could stab wally 💔
Now we can reunite Loid and Albrecht so they can have a happy ending
So if the sentients have hiveminds
Does that mean all the narmer sentients are fragments of erra
No, and they have a hivemind
A lot of the smaller units were coming in from Tau anyway and we dunno who specifically made every single one
jesus another mini lore bomb
Loid said that Otak was an archimedean before
some link to argon crystals iirc? or crystals at least
oh he did?
some idle dialogue iirc
i'd have to find it
I never heard of that
"I discovered a forgotten work by Archimedean Otak on crystallography deep in the archives. He was the first to anticipate the unique properties of Argon. We owe him so much. At least... what remains of him... is happy."
looks like it only plays when you have the 'research dante' menu open
Did you mean yes they’re a hivemind but not Erra’s
Also why wasn’t praghasa alive if the sentients are both ships, tools, drones, robots and alive all at once
There's just the one hivemind as I read it. Either the Sentient is in it or not. Erra would just happen to be one of the main commanders of it now.
Ohhh so there’s multiple wills within one hivemind
praghasa took the brunt of the void exposure in the solar rail and died because of it, as sentients are supposed to do. she is dead, but her corpse is still around and able to be "piloted" around
Praghasa is braindead at this point and being puppeteered by whoever controls it
Oh wow that’s a great explanation
So she not necessarily an eidolon it’s only her mind that’s dead
Sentients are so fun to learn about
Does anyone else have fun sentient facts because I can listen all day
Sooo question. How is the driffter capable of erasing the memories of Marie, Lyon and Roathe if they unlike the Hex have direct contact with Loid and the Cavia? Like as far as I understood they can go to the lab and back to the Cathedrale since we hear that Roathe talks a lot with the Cavia sooo how is the driffter capable of affecting them too? At first I thought he was only capable of reverting time on loops like Duviri or 1999 but the lab and the Cathedrale are not in a loop.
Its not the looping, its that theyre infested
well, its not the big loop anyways
Ooooh makes sense. I did not have this conversation yet sadly. Thank you
well, in all technicality...
you already did
these are in the early convos
you just can't access them because you havent reset nothing
I did, I reset Minerva, Velimir, Flare and Kaya
you didnt reset roathe
"Yes, claim this body as I once did" - Roathe
No Roathe I'm not like you 😭
For anyone whose replayed the hex quest is it the exact same as when u first played it? Bc ive heard its slightly different
Not really no
maybe different with dialogue choice but other than that, nothing change
as in the hex finale or just replaying the quest?
Ok I js checked, it seemed they meant the finale was different if u chose it from the kalymos option, but now it looks like u can replay the entire quest which wasnt available last i check
ah yea
the finale is separate from replaying the quest
quest is the same, though you can pick a different proto to play as for the one section
You could always replay it
quest replay took an update or two iirc
I know because i do it constantly lol
Mm, was it techrot encore?
Im replaying every story quest featuring drifer/operator bc of the new update😛😛
probably, i remember wanting to replay it but not being able to
I replayed it for the Albrecht interrogation scene. "Not my type" yeah i see you Albrecht your type is MEN
lmao
Albrecht is bi pretty sure
If warframes have a healing factor how is Arthur still blind?
well his face isn't infested yet
They aren’t warframes theyre protoframes
he had a wife previously, that doesn't necessarily mean he was attracted to her
But they still share the healing factor
- the eyes aren't important for a frame, they're going to get covered anyway
I mean the only one we see he has something going with is loid and he abandons loid
On that note how do warfrmes even see?
Neuroptics
Some do have visible lenses like mag
he does, yes, because he doesn't want the indifference to harm loid. there's enough love there to leave him behind to attempt to not bring harm to him
I wouldn't say just cuz he was probably forced to have a child means he's bi
It was an arrangement
Where was this said?
I mean clearly he got hard enough to do the freakies
A new Roathe chat. He was "given" her.
Ehh. That doesn't indicate attraction
I can list why it doesn't, but the mods really wouldn't like it
Its due to stimulation, and its an autonomic response
Fully expect him to have just laid there limply, and did not gaf lol
still could be, we have no idea
Also, to correct this, we also hear about him and Loid getting stoned together
Albrecht goes on about how he is unworthy of loid
Stoned like high or stoned like punishment?
He never cared for the wife. Didn't even care that ||she died||
High lol, they do drugs together
the former
nestawood
Loid is apparently a lightweight
Indica or setiva?
he still could be bi. Loving a forced marriage has nothing to do with that.
Ehh
The only person we know Albrecht was ever attracted to was a man, so I'll go off that tbh
We know the only person he got freaky with had an orokinussy
obviously there's nothing to indicate he's straight but there isn't a huge reason to believe he's just gay, no assumptions can be made.
and his wife
And ew, don't say that
He never cared for her.
he mention his wife when talk about the Mother
He didn't even care that ||she died||
so he does care even for a little bit
interesting convo with Roathe today
I mean ppl died left and right all the time, he just got used to it
Oh okay, thank you
Clearly he cared enough about Loid
and still left him to fight a void demi god
Thank you, I was worried that choosing the face one made him answer that to the point I was about to reset.
His "love" is as bad as Ballas tbh
He left Loid to draw his gaze from Loid, it was an act of love he regrets. He also regretted even temporarily leaving Euleria for Duviri
He didn't care for her, clearly so
It's between friend, brother or Ex lover
huh
Loid is his lover, its been confirmed constantly
wow this is gonna be useful in the future
same with his wife, just because he did not mention her a lot does not mean he never cared for her
Except roathe states he did not care for her iirc
I mean his daughter remind him of his wife isn't enough for you?
yea his daughter would remind him of his wife its her kid too what
Yeah that too
More like was ig
Do i gaf about my dad? No, but do i say my eyes are like his? Yes??
No, they are still lovers. They have not broken up. Long distance exists.
I actually base on how Snape care for Harry because his eyes remind of his first crush, so I assume Albrecht kinda the same but much less affection
They have problems, but they are still very much together
the loid n albrecht problems are far lesser than any other orokin couple we've heard of
Roathe and Loid were lovers. I mean it's kinda obvious but since there was no "I had something with your dad figure Usurper" kind of conversation I preffered to first see all posibilitys
NO???
Loid was with Albrecht...?
wHAT
Ik
I mean with the "Believe me drifter, I can convince him" type of dialogues I thought it was a thing more of Loid with Roathe rather than Albrecht and Roathe
Did shit to piss them off
ALBRECHT AND LOID
Not roathe/Albrecht, not loid/roathe, its Albrecht/Loid 😭
Can someone get the tweet im in the middle of nowhere and it won't load
Yeah I know, I meant that in the past Roathe had something with any of the 2
Roathe seems to have been Nitokh's thing ngl
Roathe also absolutely hates Albrecht and probably only knew him from the days of the orokin empire, as the entrati family were giga important
Roathe also mentions he only knows Albrecht as the blue version
As far as I understood they were somewhat of Rivals or something? Like they knew each other a lot. And also with Roathe telling the drifter that he is the only one who can convince Loid to go and talk with the family it kinda hints something idk
Interestingly, that means they can either transfer voices when doing continuity or Albrecht used a refacia kit
Cuz blue Albrecht is something that existed post void incident
I think its... not exactly that. Loid just kinda needs a push from an orokin in general.
Muahhaha I remember saying he formed via conceptual embodiment but bau said otherwise

Its what Albrecht is assumed what happened
w h a t
And idk how Roathe would even know about the man in the wall prior to his time in the labs
