This is a repost of the Weekly Warframe from 3 days ago as dormi.zone was having issues at the time and the post didn’t seem to federate. Apologies to lemmy.zip users for the duplicate!
Brutalism frame, a walking soviet era apartment building, “Why do I taste metal?” - Qorvex!
Passive: All primary, secondary, selective melee weapons (Glaives and Gunblades), and Crucible Blast wielded by Qorvex gain Core Exposure, granting them a +3 Punch Through bonus.
Chyrinka Pillar - Summon a Chyrinka Pillar that slows enemies. It pulses Radiation Damage with a guaranteed Status Effect.
Containment Wall - Contain the threat. Qorvex summons walls that slam together, damaging all enemies caught between them and inflicting Radiation Status.
Disometric Guard - Guard yourself and nearby allies against Status Effects. Each time Qorvex kills or assists in killing an enemy affected by Radiation Status, the number of Status Effects Disometric Guard can prevent increases.
Crucible Blast - Release a beam from Qorvex’s Crucible Core. Each enemy struck suffers Radiation Damage with a guaranteed Status Effect. Enemies affected by Radiation Status explode in a chain reaction.
Acquisition: Main blueprint is acquired upon completion of Whispers in the Walls quest. Component blueprints are acquired from Sanctum Anatomica Bounties and can be purchased from Bird 3 of Cavia.
Yeah, he really only shines when played solo and in missions where you get to stay still and have loads of enemies come to you. The various iterations of defense or survival are where he is most fun to play, I would never bring him to an exterminate, assassination, etc. Is he better than the Torid/Furis Incarnon? No, but the Torid/Furis have better KPM than about 70% of DPS Warframes so there is that.
Actually, my context for “high KPM” is any number of Influence setups, like high-parkour Heavy Slam or Stealth Xata, or even meme setups like Stealth Xata Ichors. But yeah comparing any frame to Influence is pretty unfair.
I guess having to pop towers isn’t bad, as long as I’m not being forced out of the room I’m camping. Just feels like forever since my KPM has been so low I’ve had to do that.
