Component blueprints are available from Invasion: Phorid Manifestation, and her core blueprint can be found on the market.

Nyx prime comes with better shields, armour and sprint speed. Special: Enemies targeting Nyx suffer 20% reduced accuracy. Not bad if you keep moving, though somewhat unreliable. Pros: … Continue reading Nyx

Banshee

Casual Goblin

Overview: A sound themed frame that can apply devastating debuffs but can’t take much retaliation. Blueprints can be researched in the Tenno lab of your clan dojo. Prime: Banshee prime is currently vaulted, meaning that you’ll need to ask clanmates and friends, consult the trading channel or wait for an unvaulting event if you want this variant. Special: All weapons brought by Banshee or her companion are treated as silent. Not a huge advantage, but useful for stealth missions with long range weaponry. Pros: Absurdly high damage multipliers through Sonar (2) stacking, good crowd control options and the ability to … Continue reading Banshee

Chroma can be acquired from “The New Strange” in your codex.

Special: Chroma can extend spectral wings, allowing him to perform an extra double or bullet jump. In addition, Chroma can cycle the colour of his abilities by using Spectral Scream (1) altering their energy properties – as a broad explanation, … Continue reading Chroma

Casual Goblin

Special: Trinity can revive downed allies 20% faster, and at a greater distance. Pros: Massive support potential, restoring energy/health/shields and providing consistent damage reduction to herself and allies. Cons: … Continue reading Trinity

Wisp

Casual Goblin

Overview: This floating frame has something of a floral theme, summoning magical plants to support allies – if you’re not creating illusions or emitting a beam of sidereal radiation towards a hapless foe! You can get the parts by killing the Ropalolyst on Jupiter after completing the Chimera quest. Prime: Wisp prime is yet to be released. Special: Gain invisibility when not touching the ground – this lasts a few seconds after landing, and can be broken early when firing a weapon. It sounds like a gimmick (and it is) but this is an incredible passive, boosting defence and utility … Continue reading Wisp

Nekros

Casual Goblin

Overview: Push horror into the minds of enemies, steal vitality from the fallen and force the slain to rise as your puppets – if this sounds good to you, check out Nekros! Parts drop from Lephantis in the Orokin Derelict assassination mission. Prime: Nekros prime is currently vaulted, so consider asking friends and clanmates if they have his relics, check the trading channel to see if people will sell his parts or simply wait until an unvaulting event. Special: Nekros regains health whenever an enemy dies nearby. The frame can also produce a steady stream of health and energy orbs, … Continue reading Nekros
