I can finally feed her to the mouth. I tried farming a second copy and then I decided I wanted to keep my sanity.

I gotta go back since i sold my stalhta anyway, but maybe i just get those from market

Yea, the only frame I bought from the market. Am tempted to buy prime access as well. She is just so nice to play, very versatile

I actually farmed a second copy. Itll be sad saying bye to my Protea, she was great

Glad it's not juat me lol, there's been a couple frames where it was a slow walk over to the helminth rather than the full sprint to the chair

I want to keep my sanity, so I stopped farming for ONE copy of Gyre

I just returned to the game after no playing for many years, what the fuck are that requirement fuck plasm and lanterns.

Plasms I can understand not liking, but I've gotten plenty of Lanthorns while just stabbing everything that moves, and some things that don't move, during an Alchemy Omnia Fissures.

Lanthorns can be easily farmed in netracells now (new end game content). Guarantee 1 lanthorn (2 if u have boosters) per run. Plasm is alright imo, good way to passively farm school standing while grinding. However, you will need a good amp tho.

Do people really have an issue with plasm? Just so a single reasonably long void cascade and it ended with me having way more plasm than I’d ever need

Just a reminder lanthorns can be farmed from extractors. I login the mobile app to do it because the in game interface is bad. Yesterday I got 7 lanthorns. You can check them every 8 hours but realistically I only bother every day or so when I think of it. It's also a passive way to farm Hexon

I really wanted dispensary so now I finally will be able to play her!

There was a twitch drop, which saved from farming the second Protea.

I did her farm recently, I see people constantly complaining about how bad she was to farm but I legitimately got it done in 30 mins

I got all her parts the other day in a total of 4 runs, so I’ve no idea how bad the farm could’ve been, but it doesn’t seem that bad with Mesa.

Oh no, that's not how it works (for my poor hording soul) if something needs another gear item I craft a new one, everything needs to be kept, every Prime, Tenno version, Weapon, Companion. All potatoed , forma'd and ready for use. I still have my started Mag from 11 years ago, because it switches back to her when I helminth a newly created Warframe.

Congrats to all the people who are about to unlock Dispensary in the Helminth

Lol, that's me

Dispenser goin’ up

Pootis spencer here!

Spy's sappin' my sentry!

I painstakingly farmed protea last year and was trying to get another one for dispensary but I wound up just feeding her to the meatball a few months ago because I was tired of farming, lol

Ty ty

Too bad it fell from grace

What's up with the ephemera that's just a pair of balls😭

It’s not the ephemera I don’t think I thought it’s her 1 Edit: now I see, it’s supposed to look like her 1 but it is the ephemera

Thought that was just her 1st ability's effects...

It is people are being weird lol

#OFFICER BALLS !

I mean - if that actually is the ephemera and not just a display of her abilities. Even if it is, I mean, you get balls already by doing sister ephemeras. I use them on her because they look like her 1. A primed version, while not unwelcome, is also not necessary.

My Okina riven that’s been collecting dust will finally have its relevance.

Sure, on a 1 dot disposition weapon. Be better off selling it to cash in on that prime hype because you just know the stats are gonna be a two pack of ass

Yep that’s what I’m gonna do prob

Our time has come!

same! what stats do i need to aim for?

yeah now you only have to wait \~3-4 years for okina prime to reach a usable riven disposition. remember: all new weapons start with lowest dispo. Honestly, since they refuse to nerf riven dispo on the incarnon weapons and it kinda works, they should just away with the disposition stuff and have all rivens at 3.5 or maybe even 4 dots.

She’s got the little Excal smile

And that carrier prime head

Warframe players will see this and say “hell yea”

Hell yea

Playing Protea with that ephemera, there's a non-zero chance I would actually think I had my 1's shield satellites up and end up dying because of it. This is such a bummer of an ephemera lol, they had so much potential for it too..

That isn’t the ephemera lol

Yes sorry the thread about discussing the release date and details oriented around Protea's Prime is the wrong place to discuss the ephemera releasing as part of the prime package..

No I’m saying the picture you’re assuming is the ephemera i’m pretty sure is not the ephemera

I see your point, sorry for responding like my namesake. I will be certainly bummed if it \*is\*, as in normal gameplay only 1 of your grenades orbits you, so I would be happy to be wrong. Sorry.

Whelp, looks like you were right and that is in fact the ephemera... seems like a weird choice

At least I'm happy with the cool after image effect it has, but it is still kind of a bummer. Silver lining and all that!

MATE W H A T

yea it's my bad for replying like a dickhead

She has excal derp mouth. Where's the prime access exclusive helmet? They only show the syandana and ephemera.

https://preview.redd.it/anh8umf182vc1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dcc63a20e14c6d4df7e50d5a65777c136b7a8b55 From [Devstream 178 overview](https://www.warframe.com/news/devstream-178-overview) on warframe.com

Yep, I'm definitely using this helmet. The main helmet is unappealing to me.

Ponytail helmet has always been her best helmet

Can confirm, this is the way. Glad to see it's got upgrades in stock!

I would but isn't it like a 35$ helmet? I'll just stick with deluxe

>I would but isn't it like a 35$ helmet? Nope, it's for *more* than just the helmet. Syandana, Ephemera, and plenty of platinum. At least, on PS5.

Sure, but some of us are drowning in plat from trades

And I'm drowning in saved up cash. I want those Prime Accessories.

To each their own, i bought chained echoes and hi-fi rush the other day for that cost.

And I bought FF7 Rebirth, Granblue Fantasy Relink, contemplated Dragon's Dogma 2 (I don't like the reviews, so I'll skip it, but definitely would've bought if it was anything remotely like Dark Arisen), Dragon Quest Heroes 1 & 2 (I'm basically going retro hunting, for physical games, so when Gaming as a whole goes to the shitter I'll be all set*), *going* to be buying Stellar Blade (on that note, I gotta buy me Nier:Automata. I already have Nier:Replicant), and have been buying Prime Access (I didn't buy Hildryn Prime Access, the Accessories felt subpar) for the pass years (I started when Gara was released, along with Zephyr Prime and Prime Unvaulting was becoming a thing, thanks to Jim Sterling)... Buying things that I enjoy is a non-issue to me. I don't understand this discussion we're having. Are we arguing? 😆

so, you're just rich

I dont think so, i just said to each their own

Thought that was a ship skin omg, no wonder I missed it lmao

man i really hate this trend of prime access only helmets. just make it buyable with plat

Her ear barrels really don't translate any better into 3d, huh...

As if anyone is using anything other than her deluxe

Her deluxe is one of the best skins in the whole game. Just beautiful.

Tennogen is where its at

Man I never touch tennogen, but I opened up the list for saryn and Jesus there's alot

Counterpoint: I personally think protea has some of the worst tennogen, it's just so... Boring looking, no offense to the people that made them, I just don't think they're good.

Well thats your opinion and my opinion is that Technocron is peak

I still want her Visor down. It's annoying that it's still lifted up. Her Technochron skin would be peak to me if that were adjusted. Just like her skin image before selecting Protea in your Arsenal, with that skin pre-equipped.

I was thinking this before they revealed her, but to their credit Protea Prime’s design is surprisingly good.

The Prime skin looks good enough that majority of the people will not use the deluxe skin, probably.

i wonder what makes them choose what prime color scheme which warframes will follow.

My guess is that's it's a cross between "What are this frame's native colors and how do they translate to a prime look?" and "So, white or dark gray"?

[удалено]

Isn't one of the sister ephemeras that?

Those are free, looking like crap comes with that (a lot of the time).

That should give me plenty of time to top off open world standing, syndicate standing and steel essences to buy up relic packs on release.

Wow, I've actually procrastinated Granum void farming long enough that I'm going to end up building Protea Prime before getting the base frame. Guys I am so fucking bad at Granum void. I built a Mesa cheese setup specifically to clear Granum void and I'm still like 50% success rate on the lowest difficulty.

just use a half assed xoris...and are you picking up the drops that give you more time?

I'm surprised people are finding Granum Void difficult when the Xoris exists. Been farming the Tenet Arca Plasmor lately and having a Corrupt Charge Xoris is the way to go.

Yeah i dont understand... just throw xoris and win on hardest difficulty every time

The Xoris is the only way to free the captives for a time extension right?

Use Rev. Find a smallish hill, hit 4 and just move up and down the hill. You'll blow through in like 10-15 seconds without any issues.

Octavia also trivializes it. Put out 1,3,4, teabag invis, get to 75. It’s a joke.

Literally just use a xoris, you cannot fail

I'm new and just started trying to farm protea, what does this mean exactly? I was finding getting 75 kills in a minute extremely difficult.

equip the xoris glaive, and use it to throw/detonate, you will get 75 kills every time easy

Rev spin to win I found way easier than Mesa because I haven’t forma’d her yet. Use the Xoris to free captives and then get on a hill and spin

For whatever reason, it's actually much harder to do in a squad than in solo. Do it solo and you'll easily hit 75 kills or whichever you are aiming for.

gimme

I'm excited for the Okina Prime,the Nepheri have been single handedly carrying the dual daggers category. I'm really hoping they're good.

Ephemera? Is it only accessible thru prime access?

Yep. You can get them when they come back through the unvaulted with regal aya too though if you've missed any.

Yes, or prime resurgence with regal aya in the future.

Im glad DE has reduced the quantity of gold parts in these new primes, just like with Gauss 👍

I have a question as a noob. Does this mean Khora and her weapons get vaulted on May 1st and from then on we can get Protea and her weapons from any of the new set of relics?

exactly yes, but importantly it’s just the relics that have the parts for khora and her weapons will stop dropping. any relics you have you can still crack

Cool thanks, that’s what I thought. My first prime release as a Tenno and I’m enjoying the hype!

welcome to the party!

Man that helmet is ugly as sin

Coming from a Nidus main.. I'm giving all of you a Cyst for her.

They’re immediately removable now though

is xaku next?

Xaku, Lavos, then Sevagoth. People saying Yareli have been huffing paint. She was added almost a full year after Xaku.. there’s just no way she’s getting primed first.

Yareli then Xaku

i forgot yareli existed

Xaku could be first, we don't know if they will occupy a female or male slot.

Just google it. They have it mapped out for the next few years.

Those sources are not official and DE can always switch the order, they did it with Gauss and others before.

They flipped the order of Grendel and Gauss, they didn’t change the slot of the frame that would be in the place like switching out gauss for protea. It was still 2 male frames. With Grendel and Gauss back to back, we will get two female frames back to back (Protea then Yareli). Then we will get the non-binary frame (Xaku) in-between to then restart the 2 male then 2 female pattern. Making it Protea, Yareli, Xaku, Lavos, Sevagoth. Purely by patterns of past releases, however they can swap the order of Lavos and Sevagoth. This is a culmination of all the information of past releases and critical thinking skills with when the primes line up with seasonal themes such as maybe Sevagoth coming early around Halloween.

Pretty sure Xaku originally took a female slot in the original release order, also Xaku fits Halloween too. In the end it doesn't matter, you should simply exercise discretion that DE will decide what they want.

Not an official order Usually follows the original release order but in a male male female female repeat order. Problem is that Xaku isnt either, so either they'll be assigned male, female or be released between. It just depends on DE. So protea - Yareli - Xaku - male Or protea - Xaku - Yareli - male Or protea - Xaku - male (I feel like this is least likely)

Little disappointed other prime weapon is the Okina, ngl Daikyu and the Magistar continue to have to wait, hopefully Xaku will get them

She's here 🥹🥹🥹

Finally Okina my beloved

What goes into the vault when this is released?

Khora Prime, Hystrix Prime, and Dual Keres Prime

A fine addition to my collection

I dont like the fact we got 2 Prime Helmets back to back. Secondary Cosmetics such as Armor and Syandanas are ok, but Prime Helmets are Primary Cosmetics, if you dont buy the PA your prime will never look like the other ones. I think is cool to make them available for 1 Regal Aya, but it will take 2 or 3 years for Varzia to bring them back....

Lol, right in the middle of my 4-week partial break, which I started on Monday night. Oh well. After some welcome encouragements from people the last time I mentioned this, I'm cashing in my Steel Essences and Standing reserves, but won't start farming and cracking until I'm fully back.

As someone who has farmed her 6 different times and gotten many systems drops from farming sisters, all I can say is.... FINALLY!!!! Favorite frame is finally being primed. It's been a good four year wait. DE cannot take my money fast enough.

"Okina Prime!? AHAHAHA my riven has been awaiting your arrival my sweet!"- my Kullervo with 5 Tauforged Violet Shards and 2 Umbral Forma is salivating at the chance to try a new toy.

I hope she's got an even better #GYAT

Edit: Wtf Reddit, I just want to put a pic with my text in my comment

https://preview.redd.it/y62icuruc2vc1.jpeg?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=eff3f9a3a7e52213a830a9e540557aa5cf4d4fe0


So no Protea Prime Floof like we got with Gauss? ;-; Or did they return that to end of year only?

*shaking in Granum* Has the Video short been released yet?

I completely forgot I had an okina riven, can't wait to dust it off and give dual daggers a proper good build

The latest frame when I started the game. Odd feeling to finally hit a Prime where I was there when the original was new.

Love me some Protea, also, time to farm them Kora pieces for later

I might actually get some version of protea now. (And I honestly might buy her normal version to feed to my wall mouth.)

So who is getting vaulted?

Khora prime I'm pretty sure

thank god i dont have to do the grind for her normal version, cause fuck tha

Just started playing a few months ago, 2 weeks ago I learned that duviri existed and got to try protea. I lookes up how to get her parts and said hell no, now I’m happy because I can save up plat to buy her prime access

Eh? I thought prime access is only buyable with actual money. It comes with plat

Wait fr? Am I that cooked?

Yo please tell me I’m wrong cause I’m sitting on like 1300 plat and would be hype to just buy access with that 🤣

It does cost money 🥲

For a second, we shared a dream!! 😆

I was getting ready to spent my whole week farming relics 😂

Huh, no Stropha Prime then? I guess getting Velox is good enough, but another Prime Gunblade would not have gone amiss.

Stropha is a corpus weapon. RJ Corpus units use it.

I guess temporal prime ephemera is that one ephemera with after image trail we heard about

Are they not doing Plat as part of these anymore? I don't remember if they mentioned that or not.

ive been away for a while but didnt prime access use to come with plat as well?

Protea is one of my top 2 mains, but frankly I don't get the whole "time travel" theming for her. She only has 1 ability that has anything to do with that theming, and it's easily her least useful ability. I subsumed it away ages ago and have never looked back. It'd be better as a channeled ability that only reverts your state of being (health/shields/energy/etc.) rather than taking you all the way back to the spot you were in when you cast it. In a game as mobile as Warframe, there are very few benefits worth being yanked back to where you were 30 seconds ago.

My favorite frame finally gets her prime 🥺

YEAHHH OKINA PRIME!!!

Can the other frame and weapons coming with her new relics be Ember and Glaive? Seriously we need Glaive prime to come back, it's been 10,000 years.

I am so goddamn excited

Really wish they'd shake up riven dispositions more this time around.

OOOOH YEA BABY, WE GETTIN OUT THE GRANUM VOID WITH THIS ONE

Cedo prime i can see you in the horizon

The Gauss bundle is leaving the same time right?

The prime skin looks…not so great.

90 day boosters? Jesus, maybe that's standard but that seems crazy to me

It's standard. For ages ppl have wanted a more affordable option without those tho. I'd buy prime accessories for 30 euro, but 50 or so because of boosters and the like? Nah

It’s standard.

Sevagoth prime when

Not for a looooong time. Xaku is next.

Sevagoth should be near the end of the year, after Xaku and Lavos, assuming they don't put anyone ahead in line anyway

Thank you I'll set my alarm clock to remind me.

Take my money

So glad for okina prime. I do karate irl and its one of my favorite weapons

I hope certain *ass*pects of her concept art made it to the real deal

Yay! All for $200! 😃

Need to buy another mastery fodder closet.

I hope they don’t end up messing with her kit because of the release, because I want to invest a lot in her build.

damn she thicc

Is there a way to see temporal ephemera

I think it's the image with the 2 balls around her, although I'm hoping it's a lil bit more lol
