The Grate Prime can no longer be acquired.
Mods
The Grate Prime can be customized with its own unique mods:
- Dropzone will send the user's Warframe flying in on a parachute
- Particle will fill the room with impressive vent dust, slowly clearing to reveal user's Warframe standing proud.
- Shockwave will cause the user's Warframe to create a blast of energy delivering 200 / 275 / 350 / 9999999 Blast damage in a 5 / 7 / 8 / 50 meter area.
Notes
- Grate Prime can be equipped in any slot, including Warframe, Sentinel, or Weapon.
- This is the first gear of its kind to automatically trigger without any external sources, such as Sentinel abilities, Warframe abilities, etc.
- Although there's no official word on a future Akimbo-style version, this a distinct possibility. The only thing grater than one primed grates are two primed grates.
- The Grate Prime has been confirmed to perform 73.31% grate-r than a
Glaive, and 13.37% better than a Glaive Prime when used in such manners.
