I've managed to snag both of them before operation Hostile Mergers ended. But now that the operation is over, I assume they will thus stay unobtainable for quite a while from now? The Wiki is not too outspoken on it (unlike the page for e.g. Zylok which states it is currently unobtainable), though it might be it just wasn't updated yet.
I want to know because I want to properly categorize them on Warframe Stuff Organizer. I don't think there's a chance they'll be back Soon(tm), so I've changed their listing to "Unobtainable".
The same goes for older content btw. Just as a heads-up sanity check, am I correct with the following listing? The Wiki only seems to mark things as unobtainable if it's also not tradable, though I'd like to not make that distinction (I have a separate tradability classification).
Spectra Vandal, Glaxion Vandal: Unobtainable; operation Hostile Mergers is over now, and it was a one-time operation with no sight of a rerun one day. They're also not tradeable.
Zylok: Unobtainable; the Pyrus Project Event is over, and that was the only source to get it since it's not tradeable either.
Opticor Vandal: Event, since Exploiter Orb will come back from time to time IIRC? It's the only remaining "Event" item in the whole database now...
Wolf Sledge: Unobtainable, though tradable. Series 1 is over, and following series will have other themes and drops. But I heard rumors the Wolf would come back one day, right? Maybe not in Nightwave though, so "Nightwave" is then also probably not the right term here. How else to categorize it though...
Excalibur Prime, Lato Prime, Skana Prime: Unobtainable, since they are founders exclusives and untradeable. The wiki does state "This weapon can be sold for 5,000" -- my condolences to the ones who did it by mistake 😞
Ignis Wraith: both Chem Lab and Unobtainable + tradable; Chem Lab if your clan did the research during the operation, and unobtainable otherwise, apart from trading of course. Maybe I should add a separate category for unobtainable-but-tradable to make it less dramatic...
Snipetron: Unobtainable (for now) and not tradable. It already resurfaced a few times over the years though (last time you could buy it from Nakak during operation Plague Star). But there's no sight of it becoming a recurring presence.
Dex Dakra, Dex Sybaris and Dex Furis: Gift of the Lotus (or Alert?), since they'll be coming back each year in March as alerts (but presented then as "Gift of the Lotus", right?). Untradable though, so just long windows of unobtainability.
Machete: only available as a login reward nowadays (you just have to be lucky when logging in, so practically unobtainable 🙂 ).
Are there any other items I've overlooked? I'm only concerned about items giving mastery rank; I guess there's also lots of cosmetics being locked away forever by now, but that's not what my site tracks.
