Space0ddity Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Aside from a few fringe cases where usually useless weapons like Tiberon get buffed drastically, the minor stat increases from prime weapons aren't the thing that pushes them to the top. The other component of prime weapons, which is the reskin is sometimes barely noticeable compared to say, a full body reskin or a fancy prime frame. Maybe a primary weapon or a melee prime is more noticeable, but secondaries get shafted so hard that some of them (like sicarus) actually look even worse than usual. When the thing that makes primo weapons so powerful is a riven, which works just as fine on the regular weapon, is there even a point to chasing after primes? The plat you spend on them could better go to skins or fancy slots, or if you're spending time, it might just be better to work a job IRL and then buy some tennogen. I guarantee that rolling in something like Nidus Phryke is much more noticable and unique than just having 3 primes in your loadout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaero Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 There's no reason to use Prime gear at all, stick to the regular versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. I think this is a reason to quit the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 People are given the freedom to choose what they want to build and play with... @OP if you don't want to use Prime gear then don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerGreif2 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 (edited) This thread is a joke guys... there was a thread earlier that claimed that Primed Warframes where useless. @Topic: Primed Weapons are to 90% strictly better where by frames the important part are the abilities and they dont get better with a primed version so it is different indeed.

Marvelous_A Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Then don't use it? Not sure it's worth making a thread to tell us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolDudeMcCool Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Once more, I agree, all Prime items are useless, hit me up in-game so I can take them off your hands as an act of charity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFinalEpic Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Hmmm... Warframes too for the lolz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Cargan2016 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 obvious troll considering all the stats on primed is buffed in some way over basic variant. obviously they are going to avoid them being so much of boost that makes new players with no primes useless completely. as for the abilities on the frames yess they stay same but the stats like heath armor and such do get buff albe it small one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
