Remove lens?

[(PSN)Grimfrost83]

Hey

Can I remove a lens from a weap/frame?

[AndouRaiton]

No, you can replace it with another lens but it will break the old lens.

[GinKenshin]

you can't 

[GnarlsDarkley]

Nope. Only put another on it.

Many many threads about "DE please let us delete lenses!!!111"

[InDueTime-EN-]

nope, only replace them

Put my first lens on my Braton.
So, don´t get much points. Hence the question. 

But have traded a few lenses now and start farming some. Tho, still a waste that they can´t be removed.

Thnx for answers tho :)

Don't mind, we all make or made such mistakes at least once :)

Yeah, but i should really read up on new things like this. I´m like a child, just attach things and don´t know what for

Thats the fun of some video games. The problem with Warframe is it punishes you for not looking up every single thing on the wiki before acting on it...

Me too. But in Warframe you don't lose much with most mistakes. Exceptions would be selling unique/rare stuff but that's it.

Lenses are pretty common once you run some Bounties.

For other games I do tend to look up some things

They're consumables, like forma. If you want to change polarity on something, you expend a forma and you never get it back. If you want to change the focus school on something, you expend a lens and you never get it back. The lowest-quality tier lenses drop frequently from Cetus bounties so don't be too precious about them.

it's fine, you can and very likely will collect dozens or hundreds more of them over time so it won't be an issue for you in the future.
