More Hybrid Weapons

[-Amaterasu-]

Currently the Seer is the only hybrid weapon I can think of (Orokin and Grineer) and while the weapon itself is a little dissapointing (Shoulden't expect much from Vor) I love the concept of weapons like this and the design itself is pretty interesting personally I would like to see more weapons like this explored in the future (all kinds of hybrids Corpus-Grineer, Orokin-Infested, ect.) Just wondering what the community thinks of things like this.

 

Edit: Mutalist Quanta, Paracyst, and Acrid(?) are also some hybrid weapons never hurts to see more less clan specific ones though

The acrid seems to be an attempt by the Grineer to weaponize infested material in some way, that having been said I do think that would be fairly interesting.

as long as it's done with taste and not just some mutant mastery fodder, I'm in. I also like the design of the seer but can't bring myself to ever use it.

Well, there's no mention of where the toxin comes from so I suppose it's a theoretical possibility, but still a theory at best.

Some concrete examples of infested hybrids are torid and mutalist quanta/paracyst.

Edit: totally forgot that the acrid comes from the infested lab, grineer/infested hybrid checks out.

funny thing is, we don't have a Corpus/Grineer Hybrid weapon. I bet if they put their heads together, they could build something quite impressive.. maybe an explosive laser rifle perhaps?

Completely forgot about the quata weapons XD would still love to see more hybrid weapons though that perhaps aren't limited to research there are quite a few bosses that could serve to drop their own hybrid weapons (Mutalist Alad V, Lynx, Sprag, Ven'kra Tel, maby even Tyl Regor) would make sense if they had some form of hybrid technology given their situations and it could give more insentive to try and fight bosses again

braton being child of orokin/corpus/tenno tech?

If I've got this right the braton is a mass produced version of the original Orokin gun fabricated by the Corpus but I woulden't necesarily call that a hybrid just really convoluted lore.

Mutualist Quanta , and paracyst

And as he said , acrid because it's found in the infested lab but is a Grineer weapon

Dang! I almost completely forgot the Seer since getting it years ago. Such a shame that such a unique weapon gets buried because it's just plain underwhelming. Shows you the complete disparity between weapons. As much as I'd love to see more interesting weapons, I hope they get enough 'punch' to match their 'special'ness -- otherwise, it just ends up as a cheap gimmick (like in the case of the Seer).

The Panthera is a mix of Grineer and cr@p.

Does that count ?

No, and the Panthera is Tenno not Grineer

[Tulzscha]

Moved to the proper section.

[NinjaZeku]

Is the Tysis possibly an (extremely) Infested Bolto?

 

And yeah, more hybridization (not just "corruption" via Infestation) would be great.

 

After the Atomos, I wonder what would happen if the Grineer tried to make a better e.g. Flux Rifle :D

A Corpus take on something like Lex / Marelok could be interesting.

What would Grineer or Corpus Bows / Kunais look like? (Besides heresy, I mean.)

Corpus/Grineer = Orokin
