We're about to give them a landscape and they've wanted that. Even if they didn't know they wanted that, the way they give feedback in level design, you can tell they're itching for space. They want more.

Over the last year, not only have we received the massive Plains of Eidolon expansion pack for Warframe, but we’ve also got numerous character updates. Octavia and Harrow are absolutely wonderful support Frames, with Gara being an alright addition, whereas someone like Hydroid not only got his Primed version, but was reworked to be a phenomenal character to have in a party. Zephyr has received a similar treatment as she recently picked up a rework to make her flow better in combat and traversal. The latest quarterly Prime update has come and with it we now have a Zephyr Prime to find in the drop tables. We’re taking a look at what the latest update brings and whether or not Zephyr Prime is worth your time.

The Warframe devs have done an outstanding job of updating Warframe. As a free-to-play game, there are microtransactions, but the game provides enough freedom to advance your player without spending mo

So, we started early this year, probably between three and six months from idea to pen on paper. We essentially started the year off with the biggest problem of all: what are we going to do to keep our veterans happy? We can write a quest to keep them happy for a week, or can think what's the next push. We've pushed in all sorts of directions and they all have given us different results, mostly positive, but you can see when something doesn't have that staying power from someone who loves our game for it's core, that fluid gameplay and stuff, but in this case, this caters to that too a degree you can't get any idea. We're about to put their skills to the test.

As someone who came back to Warframe around six months ago after a couple of years off, I felt overwhelmed with all the new mechanics and content. It was mentioned some quests like Chains of Harrow are like 100 hours in. How do you balance and remedy new and returning players so they're not lost?

Cetus is the first colony we've ever seen in Warframe. It is a group of Ostrons who are scavengers. They are hardy and they tear down relics of the Orokin era, which is sort of Romans of the future of the past. A little bit of mental gymnastics there. They're welcoming to you. They're willing to trade, they're willing to share their technology, but of course a price is involved. But they're there to let you explore what they built for themselves.

Outside of a sharp-edged revamped appearance, Zephyr’s armor has increased significantly from 15 to 75, which could be a tad higher considering it makes her a little more vulnerable, but then again her shields and health remain surprisingly favorable all things considering. Zephyr’s energy tank also has received a 50% bump, which only adds to her maneuverable abilities requiring little energy in the first place. Additionally, Zephyr follows suit with Ash in that she has received a boost in run speed. Even though she’s still not as fast as Loki, she’s a close runner-up alongside Mirage, Nova and Ashe Prime. If anything, Zephyr is the ideal for getting through areas as quick as possible, which could be complimented with Volt’s Speed ability.

In the end, the latest Prime update for Warframe is a worthy one. Outside of status damaging tornados, Zephyr is perhaps spread out a bit too thin, not necessarily doing anything better than anyone else. With that said, she is well rounded and a fast character to play as, so you’ll have a good variety of abilities at your disposal. She can glide, blast enemies, Warframebase.Com protect herself and take care of mobs with ease. What more do you want? Outside of the character herself, the Kronen Prime is unfortunately a less than ideal melee weapon thanks to it being outclassed in almost every situation, but on the positive side, Tiberon Prime is a phenomenal main weapon to bring into almost any scenario. Digital Extremes has done a fantastic job reworking Zephyr and giving her own Prime version; you probably won’t find her in the meta anytime soon, but she’s still a strong addition to the immense catalogue regardless.

You might have noticed those weird glowing blue balls during your time in Warframe . Maybe you’ve been diligently scanning them to unlock pieces of Warframe ’s fragmented lore, or maybe you’ve been ignoring them as strange curiosities but ultimately not worth taking away from your rampant murder

I think it was just, how do you make scavengers feel ancient but futuristic at the same time. So that was a huge struggle. We had our concept artist really work on our off character designs to make sure we had something that was obviously a competent scavenger. So these people work hard, they have unlocked a way to survive on this very, very treacherous planet because you have all the military Grineer.

As you can see, Grendel is basically Warframe ’s Kirby. A grosser, more murderous version of Kirby to be sure, but he’s still just Kirby with a scarier face. Which is sort of in-theme for Halloween, now that we think of it. That’s not to say that Grendel will be bad, per se. Kirby is a beloved character, after all. Just that Grendel might seem a little uninspi
