Ik this is. A hypothetical
Wonder how he even. Got a hold of the Grey strain without nearly infesting himself
"Go my loid, go murder some infestation and drag it inside"
Does Nova Had a lore?
I wonder how Ballas worked with it without getting wormed
Yeah she's got a whole Leverian
You mean. Helminth?
she has a leverian entry but not much beyond it
Through slaves servants, presumably
Ye
Ooo
OOOO
Have fun :]
the strain is mostly bloodborne, over airborne iirc
It was also a bomb that one time
As in. You need fluid contact
Helminth was. A bomb?
Grey was, but helminth?
Do not kiss the grey strain
No, greystrain?
Ducky i was talking about helminth
I think there was some miscommunication, sorry lol
😭
Grey strain is airborne, spores and the like
Helminth seems to be. Transferable by. Injection
And relatively un-transmittable without it
It does, but that doesn't mean spores, moreso seeds
Wait if helminth has flowers could it have pollen?
Aka spores?
Yeah, just weird that it has flowers
And why specifically for the frames
Unless Ballas added that in later cause Margulis’ favorite flower and the Tenno with the frames
"Transfering through blood? Strain of your talents?"
"It's a peaceful life"
Its "Pollen" is apart of the reproductive process presumably. Not fully able to do it without another half
Like. How flowers work lol
Meaning it has. Fruit
Well it’s the infestation so it’s not 1:1 and it’s more so about just spreading it, not reproduction
hmmmmmmmm now im even more intrigued on how roathe was able to make a whole helminth.
Seeds!
It could be making seeds!
grey strain is most likely airborne or something similar
general strain is absolutely airborne because it floods wherever we are with spores
helminth seems bloodborne of some sort, based on helminth injections and Lizzie being formed via Flare's blood. (also "domestication" preventing or slowing spread)
and there's whatever's going on with emissary ig
Or spores
Through his own infested blood
If it was spore based im. Not sure it would be so restrainable
It doesn't transfer as easy as spore based infestation
yes i get that much
Id imagine if they made seeds, that would make the helminth mouth part specifically
That mouth isn’t exclusive to helminth
but what makes up a helminth? that's the question. what must a helminth have in order to be considered a helminth?
Asset reuse 
I think it can make spores and still be liquid
Worship of Tenno as its demon 
Or
It’s all the same thing anyway lol
Bloodborne things. Usually have the spores in the. Fluid they use to transmit
They’re infested
The helminth is just a domesticated strain
But its very hard to find the two in one species
It’s what makes up the warframes
Oh wait maybe the frame flowers just produce a sort of nectar
As in. Airborne spores and bloodborne ones. Mostly because. Bloodborne diseases struggle to stay alive outside it
Maybe yeah!
Or the flowers do nothing 😔
Maybe sorta vestigial from the techrot days
In conclusion, Albrecht wore a special respirator and didnt share with the family/j
-# chances are they were already infested
He also probably had to scrub, hard afterward
Rania: "All those skin-blistering showers, shift after shift, scrubbing every pore. I was never going to let it infect me. And now…."
I think you need more than that
just continuity into another body before the infestation takes over /j
Good question actually
If you’re an Orokin and get infected, how long before it’s too late?
It evolves quickly
Is it important for the lore to have a warframe with big boobs and ass?
No
Oh okay cause i was wondering 👍
Ballas freaky
Ong
why do you ask lol
Because i'm doing new war quest and since frames are designed for war how is it strategic to have a thicc frame
i vaguely recall frames being made out of real people...
that's why jade is pregnant
their abilities are the strategy, the appearance is vanity
and we all know how much orokin loved vanity
Tbh a decent chunk of warframes aren't. That big
Sometimes its deadass the animation that warps the model
Wisp's animations are a good example
mhm
And the boob situation usually comes from skins lol a lot of them do not have much
You'd think the woman who is pregnant would have it but, no not really
-# pregnancy causes boob growth 
anatomy of women with the tenno, yay! 
Oh shout out to the time someone tried to tell me jade is. Fat 
the fat is the babby
Yeah well I own the majority of the anatomy myself
So we learning shit today
me too its ok
Jade doesn't even really look like it was a human at some point. Her design is so segmented and artificial
She looks like a gundam more than literally any other frame
Yeah but
tbf those shouldn't be mechanical either
You can clearly see the difference
Neither should flesh and yet, the infestation
Between most frames and her
True, but we dont really know what a seraph's body would be
She's just much more mechanical in her design
Maybe Ballas wanted her to look as least human as possible in some ways, more purely just a weapon
She does wield the jade light
mm, true
Like you can see in this weird bug
Her body is like one step away from Zephyr Harrier
Beautiful
didn't ballas punish the stalker by turning jade into a warframe...?
turned both into frames for their relationship/having a child, yes
Also I think those are supposed to look like feathers 😭
Could also be DE designed her as less human-like due to the uh
Subject material of her quest
Most likely
i had a Moment when i played the Minigame in her quest. love papa stalker tho.
I got..more upset over the operator screaming when you failed a beat
Infestation’s relegating resources to what’s important
That was. A choice.
We do feel what the frame does, technically
at this point it's uh. to quote quincy-k.... space trauma.
too much space trauma yall 
Xata...
overall, i looked at all the base frames just now and
i can say, they're just diverse body types. i don't think it's tied lorewise, i think it's meant to represent the lost humanity that these frames once had. that's why they're only humanoid in appearance
I agree
They're not all in one spot. Its the skins that do that
-# heirlooms.
-# *female heirlooms
there's like 2 😭
Does it matter if I choose Operator or Drifter in The New War quest?
mag heirloom?? i havent seen that :(
Yeah, it was a limited time thing, but you can still link it
Frost also had one
Citrine
and you never will
it is literally never coming back ever, along with frost
Bonjour
so if you like those 2 frames then LMAO, WE DED
I play Voruna like this
and my buddy who's an ex Voruna main uses her as a nuker
mag was my starter and i am constantly looking to improve her lulz
yeah that heirloom is never coming back just so you know
I hope they'll do SOMETHING to bring them back
Even as legally distinct designs
Like the tennocon cape
Maybe without the glowstick skin
That’s the plan iirc
i hope
Kinda amusing for a company to do legally distinct versions of their own productions
ALL warframe is a kid right ? light they don,t have self conscience only umbra .warframe is a armor
Theres kids piloting them, yes. Warframes themselves are made of humans, so their ages vary. And no, they do have their own conscious, its just suppressed
Oooh so
ITS right i ...think warframes are adults ?
Like warframe and Tenno being different
And when you transference to them, you take some of their repressed consciousness
Some of their memories, behaviors
Since you are one now
So you get new animations and such
Yes and no. Some warframes are, other warframes like Yareli are a child
oh ok child ? yareli looks like 18 17
like ALL warframe are tall
She was a yuvan. So. A child + all warframes are mostly the same height, smthn smthn animations needing to work with each model
oh ok .but thanks tô explain
now i know warframe are diferent than tenno
and the most are adults
Won't. The only thought i feel could possible is some garments that lookalike
=)) Typo làm nên tất cả
They did make a reskin of the tennocon 2025 cape
i don,t understand you
Me neither
I think they might do something like sigils, emphemera
Oh
Sooo, this is Drifter transferencing back into Warframe times?
Yeah, to scare the shit out of Loid ig
Lil shitter lmao
"Sah dude :)"
Yeah just letting him know it's all clear
The Vessels are made of Hex DNA and stuff so Drifter is able to pilot one only after knowing the Hex
You know what
IF they do make a protoframe for Lavos, I really hope the character takes heavy inspiration from Sigma in Overwatch.
give me an old timey steampunk alchemist
I hope they make something unique tbh
Wait nvm. That idea is gonna go towards a Limbo protoframe if he ever gets one. LIMBO Proto would be the Sigma.
Also yeh
As if a limbo proto wouldn't immediately be the dude who looks like limbo prime
Did it have red text
Orokin text specifically
Also. If i scroll past one more protoframe without their helminth infested parts, including the clothes being fused to their skin, im gonna crash out.
errr
I saw some red yes
and some weird....almost sounded like music? but...pixelated
pixels.
Did it look like this or
People love aesthetics of a character more than their story
Yeah it does that sometimes
why
Xata.. unfortunately.
The text? Yeah its a. Easter egg for the second dream
that's all??
Mhm
I don't have the translation, but it hints at the operator's existence
I really want Tau to be as least as grand as New War

oh that's so cool
Thank you arkadia
It's always so hard to google that for some reason
DE should honestly remove it at this point if you've finished TSD
Results are just "hey what does this mean"
I like it, even if it doesn't make sense lorewise
It just confuses people is the issue
Something just clicked with me.
Little Duck’s name implies that ducks still exist in the sol system. Not as genetically modified designer animals like kubrow or Kavat, but just… ducks.
is there an in universe reason why some of the liches speak like they're tryna convince you gilfs exist?
They get lonely
Don’t judge them.
Or do. SA is no laughing matter.
Some of the sisters do the same thing.
… shit we get harassed a lot actually.
who knows, maybe it evolved to not be associated with ducks.
Fym convince, they do exist 😭
ofc you'd know
The great thing about the word gilf is that its gender neutral
damn you telling me I gotta deal with that IN GAME TOO?
Welcome to the Origin System. There’s no HR.
By who
Tbf ducks were prob farmed for food
Who?
Liches and sisters, the worm, Varzai to a lesser extent, Alad V, Grandpa Vor, arguably Wally… I’m probably forgetting a few.
Also limbo is goated
Base colours too
Oh buh I hate loid though 😔 🥀
..why
I mean if albrect did give him a frame it would def be limbo
Hell did he do lol
Called necraloid a construct
He. Is though
Immediately on the hate train
Necraloid is a construct
Condescendingly
Actually I’m going to include Alad V twice because he’s so skeezy about it.
Other people call him a cephalon
Tell me, if someone made a copy of your brain to replace you, and then proceeded to make it "better" by eliminating any perceived flaws, would you also be a little upset?
Nah uh
Yeah, sure.
Oh and the infestation as a whole counts I guess
Uh huh get mad at the construct but still glaze the everloving shit outta the guy who made it
Ew. Cringe.
Do you not think he isnt angry at Albrecht?
Oh, I'd be upset at the person and their perception of me, if anything
Did you play the quest blindfolded 😭
Still a d1 glazer👀
Lashing out against the machine is natural in this situation
... I see.
Loid is very clearly sick of Albrecht’s shit, regardless of his feelings for him.
Yeah lol
He was. Angry, frustrated
Rightfully so
Something I did notice however, is that the man never got frustrated at us 
Just... around us
Its not like he wouldn't do it to our face
He's also lowkey scary
He’s aware that we’re in the same boat he is; pieces in a plan neither of us really had a say in.
Well yeah he’s an Orokin’s butler.
He also just decided to take on the fragmented one with just a zylok prime and
That was a pivotal moment
I mean khal mogs the whole murex fleet with a grakata so 🤷
This is the hardest boss in the game. Any "hardmode" boss is easier than this enemy. John Prodman trained this guy to make me use energy and ammo to ensure I became victorious over him.
🥹
Ehhh.
That. Was one murex wasn't it? Not a fleet?
And. Like. Theres the sentients and there's a unknowable eldritch entity known for turning universes into dust. A bit of difference there
if were talking about the veilbreaker intro quest, it was a murex that is abandoned by the main fleet drifting around deimos
thats the whole reason daughter was scanning it in the first place
this is just hearsay or badly remembering the source but iirc it was a murex sent to check on deimos but either vome or fass shot it out of commission
... both
It would've been both
Because theres the father line where he comments on it
if its stated ig, we dont really see them both in a fully regenerated state together for long
"Did I tell you Ballas sent one of his Narmer Murexes sniffing around here?"
"Vome and Fass blew it clear out of the sky!"
"Only thing they hate worse than each other is having their territory invaded."
was really bad timing then lol
Ooor they have some control over it?
perhaps the one even helped the other regenerate faster
common theme against narmer lmao
vome and fass be like:
"deimos isnt yours to conquer"
The new lines are so funny
Daughter isnt upset at loid for sleeping with Albrecht because he's her grandfather, she's upset cus she thought he had good taste LMFAO
Lol
Oh and. Loid is apparently, canonically, "ravishing", according to son.
So. Thats... a thing I guess
like fine wine 
Looks like son got Albrecht's self-depreciation though, Son looks fine lmao
Genuinely though its impressive Albrecht pulled loid at all
maybe his guilt of getting them all infested
Oh yeah probably
makes him more self concious
The Entrati Guilt™
I mean, aside from the infestation
I guess that's true
Including Albrecht, he is. Handsome. He still disgusts me for. Reasons™
Loid is the living proof that twink death is a myth
the loid concept art
Things he isn't.
had him in thighhighs
still, very much inspired
yeah he seems more like an archimedian status, at least hes worthy of that title
He is. In fact, masculine enough to not be a twink 
The dude has whole ass pecs in his final model he is. Masculine, just on the leaner side with. Long hair lol
Did Ballas do nothing wrong?
No. He's a narcissistic abuser lol
Oh
I thought that he was trying to save the sun (Played the new war while VERY sleepy)
I guess in the end, Vay hek was always better
he was about to consume it for energy to go to tau while leaving the entire system to die
brute forcing the void portal needed
W Ballas?
I have a question I'm like probably a little half way through the new war and just got past where I'm with the stalker and that other guy talking about the archons and was wondering why they are calling the drifter tenno?
Normally someone would finish a quest before asking questions. Cause spoilers and stuff
Yeah nvm you're right lol
Yeah 😂😂😂
Kaeli is a liar. Last time I checked "fish" do not fricken fly 😭
Imagine Latrox Une just sees the fish for the first time and catches them casually swimming in the air.
Crabs prob think fish fly its just a density thing
Infested fish do
Although they're not rightly fish, either
They're Orokin service drones that look sorta like fish
Plus if u look at how they move it looks like swimming not flying
And got subsumed by Infestation to varying degrees
Different type i feel, but close enough
Orb ones prob not orokin but they are pretty similar
A lot of them are current era, meanwhile the. Ones from Daughter's collection are exclusively orokin era
Pretty much
What do yall think is most likely for tau to be about?
And would that be its own saga or still void war
Void war still
Void war will last until we figure out a way to supress or kill wally 
And Tau is. Somehow apart of that
I mean if its about finding a way to beat wally sure but I think it could go tau saga and then back to void war part 2 ig
Ehh
Depends on how many tau quests there are
Ight but would the sentients be friendly hostile both? Fighting aliens? More importantly can we kill hunhow level sentients and will there be another shitty free roam
500 nodes
Im not even gonna touch that.
500 sp nodes
Level 1000 enemies
10000000% drop rate
Back to drawing loid i go.
are they really still tryna find someone to talk to
Hm?
I'll just ignore it
Hate to be that person but
Shhhhhhh
This game's power budget has long exceeded 9999
That's why Perita and Descendia have artificial HP boosting on top of normal level scaling 
Mine hasnt also a lot of other players havent
Still takes a long time to get that
To that point
Oh, Garuda Prime is that hard to get?
Actually I think I should've started from a different perspective because this makes me look like a snobbish level cap elitist
We just need more engaging modes, not level creep
No I mean it still takes a lot of time to make builds that can do millions
Bc it's almost meaningless nowadays
Yuh
Oh
Not really...
It takes knowledge, not time
Also what about focus
Only way to farm it beyond daily cap is eidolon which again take a lot of time
I don't know, I'm not talking about that
I'm talking about things that scale with enemy hp or level
Those take zero mods to bring online
Vauban, Follie, Garuda, Oberon, Revenant as examples that just work out of the box
Also I still see people struggling in steel path (me)
Broken ah frames
See, it's a matter of knowing why they're broken
In ways that matter to this specific discussion
Wtv man I got a lot to grind


Sorry I'm expecting people to know too much
I shouldn't be legally allowed to engage in this sort of discussions the way I'm chronically online more than most

Theres a lot of stuff to unlock to be able to get items and stuff plus getting endo and credits for mods. Takes a lot of time man😭. Like I got 7 syndicates to rank up if I wanna get their wares
Touch grass 
The grind is real, though I was talking about stuff that doesn't really require long term efforts
Believe me, I would've done it if I could
Ik warframes have a lot of % things
I can touch grass
Thomas will touch grass for me
Yuppers
Settled
Why would I touch grass and go outside when inside was invented for a reason
Growing grass at home
Theres a small park near my house so
allergies
Yeah I'm very allergic to people that live around me
bad area?
Who knows
There's nothing to really do outside where I live
I should go to theater some time
They keep getting rid of outside things where I live
Make a giant building around all the stuff you want them to not get rid of
Call it Hongyuan or smthn idk
Or put up a sign
Why didn't the sentients utilise the eidolons when the took over earth in the new war
because the eidolons are long "dead"
its like trying to recruit zombies into your organized army
Mm. Doesnt rev do this
Nekros:
Ask Ballas why he, the creator of warframes, didnt employ them for such things
they're not sapient enough to recruit
If ascaris negators can control a warframe and give full access to its powers, why were tenno needed?
Ngl no clue
they work by taking control from the tenno, so presumably it hijacks the pilot somehow
Why didn't the Sentients recruit Scrap into their army?
too unpredictable
Mm. Do we think sentients can be glassed and turned into cephalons
Someone should test it
Anything with a mind could be turned into a cephalon i think.
A kubrow could prob be turned into one but they would just be a barking cephalon
Ehhh
Cephalon Mira the barking Cephalon
I think its supposed to be psuedo transference cause caliban prime and protea prime prob didnt have tenno controlling them
why not
They probably do lol
If you don't get the reference I'm sending Thomas after you
Do it.
wasnt there a dialogue about ascaris putting an expiration date of sorts on the hijacked tenno?
Caliban was in progress also there weren't any other tenno in tau
something along the lines of using them before they expire
or am i misremembering something else
From vor i think
Idk what though
They. Do not to be physically at tau
Its ascaris btw the negator is whats used by us to counter it in vors prize
Caliban was still in progress he likely didnt get a tenno in it
a caliban was
Theres. Multiple caliban primes
warframes aren't one and done
How?
If he was being made then why would they make more?
Why do we make more than one warframe?
Thats like making 100 prototypes before finalizing the design
im sorry to tell you
No, thats making multiple of the designs.
that does actually happen also
primes aren't the originals
even though its beside the point
100 of the same prototype I mean
I bet Ballas had tons of draft Warframe designs
Caliban was erra's creation, then primed to become sort of bridge in the orokin-sentients empire
Do warframes get designed like that or were they not just gambling on helminth strain making a W frame
They get designed like that
That doesnt even relate to what I said
The set design can get warped
See: Mirage
Id also count Harrow for Rell being able to persist across all harrows
Cyte wasn't even meant to be named Cyte
?
Whats that even mean
yeah yeah, the interdimensional harrow group chat, we've all seen jt
Of course you're here/lh
Thomas probably created the group chat
Anyways, Rell's existence was shared across others who shared the harrow strain
Lyon can sense Rell
What happened to rell? Did he die or is he just eating popcorn watching ballas kill lotus (who abandoned him btw)
I think its just cause he did permanent transference and then harrow got destroyed
Ehh
Which also dont make sense
I thought the voice lines implied their operators were dead.
No.
Why did rell do that to survive
Because. That part of wally would still be there
What?
And if that's what stops us from dying, then it shoudlve stopped rell from dying
Old age, actually
He got older. Too old.
So, tenno can age. And they can die from age.
like the ascaris'd tenno are certainly not doing well
Rell used transference to survive not being put in cryosleep but tenno dont age or need food or anything right?
How
Source?
tenno are kids bc they were in cryo
They age.
My source? Rell.
cryo freezes you
They didnt age because. They were in cryo
Rell ages my source rell ages
that's why it's called cryo
Uh, does it count that once we free him, Harrow literally crumbles into dust
I think we're talking thousands of years, right?
we have no timeline given
So how do we know they age?
We have never seen an old tenno
because rell himself says so
Even drifter who is older tenno isnt dead after a thousand years
When
during the chains of harrow quest
NO DUH BUT WHEN
Sonion
Lotus: "How could Rell have lived this long? Without the long dream?"
Palladino: "In a way, he didn't. He knew his mortality would undo his purpose, so he gave up his humanity, forever. He committed his soul to the undying vessel-"
"His mortality"
So.
Hes mortal.
Plain and simple
And ballas says u cant kill the devil
Omg bro
ballas is a pretentious moron
Also
I'm a devil
he was assuming, incorrectly
Ballas knows nothing about how the tenno functions
Like with little horns and stuff
Id rather believe a Tenno
right palladino, not rell
Me too
Like a homestuck troll
Ballas is the literal definition of "unreliable narrator."
Mine are like. Mm

I'm a purple eye with a gun
Hi purple eye with a gun
Tiefling
teethling
There are many kinds of tieflings
Some are red, some are purple
Some are yellow and smell of sulfur
basic
Son we gotta assume the old war + the awakening lasted only like 1 year since operator ages
trans people when tiefling
OH SHUT UP
Mb I meant ages
If they age then old war and awakening are like 1 -2 years at most
...cryo sleep.
Highly unlikely
(dnd) elves are cool
WHAT DO YOU MEAN HIGHLY UNLIKELY.
TF DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING
cryosleep
WE WAKE UP FROM THE CRYOSLEEP IN GAME.
do you understand what cryosleep is
THERES NO WAY ITS ONLY BEEN A YEAR FOR OLD WAR
WE DO NOT AGE IN CRYO
THAT ONLY COVERS THE TIME SKIP
we were in cryo during the war too
Omg bro
How we gonna be in cryo and operate the warframes
not quite as sophisticated as the transference capsules at first but the tenno have been in and out of cryo since they got off the zariman
You
bruh
You literally do it for the entire first half
You do that. For the first half of the game
First fifth at best
Still, point is made
How many main quests?
You can transfer while in cryosleep
Did a bomb go off or something 😭
I'm so hungry...
Pretty much.
I'm hungry for blood
oh no, capitalism
Theyre weak to it idk
They're non biological
They can't get cancer
How would they be weak to it 
mmm...
yes, due to the EM waves, apparently the lore stated that radiation with it's strong force can "push" away the void?
Erm thats a hare/j
I think it's supposed to be metaphorical! Radiation in some ways has relation to light/life in this game. Maybe it's opposed to their inherent "darkness"
i'm assuming void wants to be empty? pure nothingness?
Radiation causes the opposite, it causes something to move fast, something to fill with its radiation,
it could be that the void has to eat through radiation? but if radiation keeps pushing, and the void keeps eating, it will always "eat" the radiation and can't expand further similar to the concept of the paradox from zenon?
There's also the fact everything in orokin void is resistant to radiation
While murmur are weak to it
There's a bit of a vague, but a drawn line nonetheless
That keeps radiation and void opposed to each other
Oberon is life, Oberon is radiation.
Orokin use biotech and their beam weapons do rad damage
Mirage's prism is radiation dmg
And wisp's sun portal is also rad dmg
I think it's supposed to be light vs darkness sort of deal
I'm not really talking about the in-universe implications
Just the philosophy it has been designed under
Which means
White energy color should do extra dmg against murmur

actually, both appears to be wrong?
void angels are neutral toward radiation?
which means that it's the rock from the murmur?
Void angels are a bit of a different case I think?
They're people corrupted by void
Murmur are Wally
Like yeah you can flash a light at a corrupted person
That won't make the person brighter
You can flash a light at a dark corner and it'll be "'cleansed"

it seems that the void angel has "darker" skin tone than the murmur itself
I just think it's not really applicable because Void Angels are a byproduct that required something from our world to come to existence. It's a mix of two things.
Murmur aren't really that
You can call void angels an incarnon form of a person 
Too bad their own soul will be used to charge the meter
But returning from this philosophical discussion to the lore
Radiation weakness 100% has some sort of meaning to it
Remembering the Old Peace quiz and some sort of tau radiation that botched the transference, aka void powers
Maybe we'll use it to shoot Wally with the strongest nukor ever made
People got burnt out
Whatshername mentions something about it in Old Peace
Galastra?
Yeah her
Basically, if you brute-force control a Warframe too much, you'll end up killing yourself from the strain.
Drop nukes into the void.
Maybe the nuke in 1999 was important
that's interesting to think about, but wouldn't that neccessarily entail that the human from the void angel can be rescued?
since they are just dreaming
When you revert the incarnon form, does the unspent ammo return?

Nothing is left to rescue
There is a point of no return
The holdfasts almost lost themselves and became angels
the human is already long dead
The remaining holdfasts anyway
Both of which is interesting to think about, as the void essentially becomes a combination of everything that's inside of it, it should be possible to save everything from it,
but they pretty clearly stated point of no return, which makes me wonder if point of no return was used metaphorically or literally
My interpretation is that the soul is consumed and the "body" is left to go crazy
Alternatively you can see it as mind and soul
you mean as in the person itself is gone, but the capability to comprehend still exists?
"break 'em down, body and soul"
-cavalero
Well yeah it's the incarnon form, its charged with the soul of the victim
Ammo is unspent that's why it's attacking us

but every incarnon form returns eventually back to it's original state once the void power is gone
which would go back to the saving part of the human <.<'
incarnons aren't the same as angels or holdfasts
Well guns don't have souls
We eat enemies for fuel
Some of the holdfasts got eaten themselves
incarnons are regular guns infused with void, the holdfasts are memories given form by the void
yea, but the concept probably has similarities?
The analogy implies you becoming the ammo
Because unlike the gun, you have a soul
And if you force the reverse process, soul ammo is deleted whole anyways
Because it's a void thing that sends things to the void
Felarx transforms into two void corrupted birds it was used to shoot at originally

I think it works perfectly
Perfection can only be claimed within a reasonable scope, but no analogy can be perfect, that kinda, ruins the point of analogies
Don't go nitpicking THAT now
Or I'm going to send a very sad cat reaction gif

It's perfect
okay ;-; it's perfect xd
It's perfect to ME
Does it change the lore?
its a permanent name change and is associated with different points in her life
I feel like i want to choose margulis cause she's the prettiest and i'm a gooner but idk
skins can be customized later, and there are even extra more you can buy
Lotus as Margulis is kinda messed up ngl
If i choose lotus can i have the helmet removed or no
its what Ballas made her into, not very... ethical
you can buy any skin later
theres even extra skins that arent in this choice
you basically pick a starter skin and a name
I'm broke
-# that is your (adoptive) mother!! 
I've made my decision
platinum is easy to get via trading with other players anyway
It does change her dialogue in quests after New War, but it's more flavour than anything important.
You’re picking who leads anyway, they’re all still in there lol
3 raccoons in a trench coat or something like that
that's the worst reason, your free trial of being will be removed for it
I thought it was three kobolds in a trench coat.
that's the furry/scalie version
Well, I see a meme and sometimes I can't immediately tell if it's a parody of something.
I'd say dnd version but tbh the overlap is weirdly big so
I hadn’t seen what they said and thought “pfft what could they have said?”
They did in fact say the worse reasoning-
I don't remember it very well, but it felt like it was more meant to be DnD themed.
But eh.
It is
Kobolds are more so a d&d thing
Yes technically they fall under that umbrella but y’know
it is but kobold stuff generally gets adopted by the furries quickly
it's inevitable
I was joking

Better be or it’s the deep void
Much better to pick Margulis because you're NTRing Ballas
straight to wally
Went back and did some Simaris scans for completion, is it just me or does the Corrupted Ancient entry have a Gara teaser
Only good reason
That or you somehow extrapolated a lot from the Margulis sections and want your tenno to feel more comforted
Oh?
Yeah, a Tenno shows up to save the Lorist from the infested, and it attacks with a flash of light and the sound of a thousand crystals shattering
:O
4->1 combo and Gara's ephemera flashbanging people again
I could see that maybe being mirage or even citrine
Ofc citrine didn’t uh. Even exist
Wait is it doing that again?? Lol
I'm pretty sure this was added before the Plains
nah they fixed it but this was written nearly a decade ago
Damn
gara's passive is also just. blinding enemies
I should play gara again(I will not)
What do the grineer even do on Saturn?
Besides having ships there
What is its purpose?
“The historically well-travelled merchant shipping lanes of Saturn are now dominated by Grineer blockades. Heavy military influence populates this area where Grineer Commanders believe they have a strategic foothold on travel throughout the System. Under the safeguard of patrolling Galleons, the Grineer ceaselessly train their expanding forces, making the region nigh impossible to overtake.”
Thanks
kobolds as mythological creatures have absolutely nothing to do with dnd kobolds
so yeah it is pretty much purely a dnd thing
folk kobold is borderline interchangeable with something like gnome or elf
the authors just thought that the name sounds cool
and have managed to gaslight the entire world into thinking that cobolds are weird scaly creatures
yea the original meaning has been oddly forgotten by now
at least they didnt manage to copyright the name
Saturn is also the location of Saturn Six, which is considered to be one of the Grineer's highest security prisons... or it was, until the Wolf Of Saturn Six escaped.
Grendel is hotter than ember
Speaking of we need a jailbreak mission on Saturn Six
like we cause one or prevent one? the grineer aren't generally known for just locking up defectors...
Cause one. They could easily have a scientist or treasure hunter locked up that we want out
less unlikely but still not a high chance
You're describing rescue missions
give saturn rescue missions a unique tileset
maybe change the objectives a bit
like jupiter sabotage
Wait... did the Lotus just get a voice upgrade?
In today's video, we are focusing specifically on the Lotus (voiced by Rebecca Ford) and how her performance has evolved in the brand-new Remastered Awakening Quest from Update 42: The Shadowgrapher.
I’m comparing 6 specific voice lines from the original 2020 release side-by-side with the 2026 r...
hey yeah I noticed that
also the new theme slaps
why is it not in my somachord
The best part of the song is the little bit of Koumei's theme
Isn't it?
It's definitely in the album so I'd assume there's a somachord for it
So is the Excalibur prime we use in the old peace the same one in the opening part of the erra quest?
almost certainly not
multiple excal primes exist
The Excalibur in Old Peace was mission killed (the damage was so severe that it proved lethal to the Operator) and you abandoned it

an Orbiter gets shot down in the tutorial, (which is something that was kept in the revamp) implying that we were NOT meant to be boarding Ordis's vessel initially
what would happen if we werent? would we EVER meet Ordis by then? was the initial ship ours or someone else's? was anyone piloting it? etc...
Wasnt an orbiter just a landing craft
Orbiter is the whole big thing with all the storage
Landing craft is the thing we enter and leave missions on
It might still be tied to a specific orbiter though
Ordis seems to be tied to the lander in that scene
To answer one question, the secret cephalon messages have Ordis say he was planning to self-destruct before the Lotus signalled him
so if you had gone to a new ship, there'd probably be a friendly but boring cephalon and most of the standard ship functions would be enabled from the start
The back rooms would still be locked, and the Codex would be full
the one that got blown up probably piloted by automated systems, sent there by lotus
ordis. might be unique, might not. though he mentions waiting for us a few times, which would link that second landing craft/orbiter to us
You'd probably need to purchase a somachord from somewhere
.....but also off-screen Ordis would have self-destructed, so
also iirc he mentions his systems were plundered by the Grineer which is the explanation for why ship systems need segments to restart
but the Orbiter proper should have been in stealth mode or exile mode somewhere
granted, there's ~1k years for the orbiter to be found and plundered
trueeee
actually they should have considered having the new VA do that dialogue
have the orbiter exit exile mode and rendezvous in low earth orbit
oh hey I just brainwaved something
So, DE's been making a lot of content from recycled material going back to Citrine
Which uses two old defense maps and a connecting tunnel
Follie's Hunt is Vesper Relay, Koumei is the Cetus map, etc
Awakening has a unique map
Could DE set a regular mission or quest there?
Now here's the reach: is it going to turn out we were at the tower hunting someone?
....like Nitohk?
hmm
nitokh = garuda?
no
Mildly related but a veteran told me there was going to be a mission where you play as Ordis waiting for the Operator after the Orokin's Fall, skipping through centuries as he maintains the Orbiter, activates its defenses, etc.
I NEED IT AS A CAPTURA RAAAAH PLEASE DE
As a prime Warframe Garuda existed before the Orokin collapse, meaning Garuda is not Nitohk
made in her image then?
Garuda has absolutely no lore at the moment— we're getting it this year confirmed (more news at the next Devstream) so people are thinking she might be tied to Nitokh (who they seem to be setting up)
are we allowed to drop pics here
one of garuda's ability icons resemble the staff executor nitokh holds
blood altar, yes
and roathe does not seem to know what became of her in the end
they have similarities, but nothing outright
a commission or made in honor of Nitokh seems the most likely thing
mm, indeed
and Protea is not Parvos
Vaguley remember steve mentioning that idea
is that the same post that called ordis's body the "Host Migrator"
Might have been a tennocon or one of the AmAs
They can't be related
Nitohk starts with N, Garuda has M on her forehead
They should patch it and replace M on her debuff icon and her forehead with N
must have been smoking that nestlewood
steve wrote a short story from ordis's pov for tnw
how did cephalon cy knew that tenno is in trouble during the new war?
Yeah cuz he got kidnapped lol
Chances are ordis reached out
ouh so ordis calling cy for helping operator?
if you look closely at Uriel's helmet
They're all on the weave together, so they can contact each other pretty easily
can I post it here
Yeah
or is there a specific channel for it
And Qorvex isn't Albrecht 
And theres no such as the queen of England
and xaku isn't deimos
Well not anymore
there's that same mark if you stare at the top center of his head
I uh. Do not see it
Ah i. Think thats the result of the symmetry tool when modelling/texturing it
yea i see what you mean but i can also see how that's just unintentional texturing
yep
given the relationship with roathe...
Ehhhh
If they wanted it to be a direct reference i would think they'd make it more obvious
inded
I could see how an argument could be made by her commissioning ballas a prime out of arrogance and possibly boredom, but also being sentenced to it for her plotting
And. Less accidental texture
i'd also argue that Uriel has even less of a connection to Nitokh than Garuda does
which is, currently, next to none
Executors generally cannot be executed
Cuz. That requires all executors
when i'm idling at orbiter, ordis mention about kobuchi, even playing koumei mission is about cheese
so did vay hek and ordis tried consuming kobuchi at cetus?
lol no
NO MY STATUE IS GONE
Watch Garuda’s lore relate to Tormis
WHAT HAPPENED
WHAT
WHY
horrific day
Also hello DJ ROM
It... Escaped
Oh didn't load, teehee
oh ok
YOU
Tee hee

wtf
Evil
DJ RoM and Nitokh cannot exist at the same place at the same time
coincidence?
I still need to go glitch my Loid floof into the skybox
👀
Omg…
like I said, with her plotting, and Roathe saying that their authorities (the Executors) are vested into them by the deathless, titular Emperor of the Orokin
if the Emperor wanted her punished
The watchful protector
if my tenno tries kobuchi would it be bad to consume it?
Nitokh x DJ Rom
the six would have no say in it
We were looking too closely at Garuda, she's been a red herring this whole time
Forever the diligent servant
That’s seven emperors
most likely seven emperors, don't remember if we have an exact count other than 'more than one'
Ehhh, its. A lot different from a rebellion. They didn't even know she was behind it until the end. Oh, and that it was ultimately blamed entirely on Roathe lol
Roathe's disappearance makes for a good scapegoat
and that's if Nitokh would be punished for the Anarchs at all
You can't exactly kidnap an executor, even as one yourself
Doesn’t Roathe say emperors
'more than one'
yea, its plural whenever they're mentioned
but i don't think how many is ever specified
The ambiguous amount of dead emperors™
Dang it really does not say
That’s annoying
Did Amir get new voice lines? I swear I havent heard some of these
And I specifically listened to a lot of his for a project I did
Check the wiki, they usually have dates for when lines are uploaded
-# check the history of a file
Also got the "You'll let me in little piggy" line from Chains of Harrow for that project, before Old Peace's release, so I instantly clocked that it was used before
Yeah lol I noticed it last night while trying to explain why the tenno don't age [cryo]
Was also playing the quest at 4am before I went to work so it was absolutely peak
Real..
