kwlingo Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 I remember a few months back Dev's talked about he Kuva Corpus. Did they say when we are getting them? They were showcasing the Kuva Corpus head as a armor shoulder piece as how Liches have as our frames they are hunting. Note: Sorry I meant to say "Kuva Corpus Lich" and weapons.

Lost_Cartographer Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 If I had to guess, they're trying to find the right Corpus leader to reveal them under. Nef Anyo and Alad V don't exactly come across as the Kuva type. Nor does Frohd Bek or the Corpus leader, Parvos Granum. Actually, I think the Corpus could realistically have a Tenno leader among their ranks, as they would have a vested interest in Kuva, and we could explore the effects of prolonged Kuva exposure to Tenno through said leader. They might even specialize in military affairs among the Corpus, manufacturing weapons and mercing out troops for profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Hikuro-93 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 I don't recall DE ever mentioning a Kuva Corpus, but instead Corpus Liches, which means different things. Even then, it might be executed a lot differently from Kuva Liches. Parvos Granum cheating death as he did, would be a nice excuse for Corpus Liches to find a way to come back to life, should they follow the same system as their Kuva counterparts. I know I would certainly dislike it if the Corpus Liches were to be a carbon copy with another coat of paint of what we have from the Grineer. I expect it for later this year, during holiday season. Not confirmed, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luciole77 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 when people says "lich corpus" is something similar to kuva lichs... Probally something hibrid with robots/sentients/humans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nef Anyo and Alad V don't exactly come across as the Kuva type. Nor does Frohd Bek or the Corpus leader, Parvos Granum. I think the only one that Hunhow registers as an Orokin was Alad V, but he's no longer that really since Patient Zero where he's a sort of recovered infested agent. Nef has ties to being Corpus descent thanks to Deadlock Protocol, and Frohd tends to dance around the thought of angering the Tenno given the betrayal during the Great War. Although I suspect that we're going to get another board member pulled out of the Magic Hat of McGuffin in order to launch the Kuva Liches under the Corpus control. Then again based on my empirical evidence on them, unless we get more weapons from the Kingpin system -- I'm getting the impression from the streams that I've watched that most of the streamer have since moved on from the Lich System. Also, given the extraction missions summary screen, I'm getting the impression we have a long wait ahead of us given how much time it took to incorporate what we're seeing now. 1 hour ago, Firetempest said: You likely just saw corpus ship remaster stuff. Like the mortuus shoulder guard On the new Space Ship Tile Set I'm also seeing what can be constituted as a fighter. Something I'm sure we'll be seeing when they include the Corpus in Railjack. Especially given that DE recycles their creations hardcore in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BornWithTeeth Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 I hope the Corpus equivalent has nothing to do with Kuva, and is instead achieved through something like resurrection through progressive cyber replacement and computerised backup as we kill them.

(PSN)reddragonhrcro Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 I do hope they don't forget about it, I enjoy the kuva lich system and play it from time to time. Been interested into it since it's early days back then when it was revealed as the kingpin system, shame that we don't have the clan investigation aspect with it: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the void, so anything could happen, like it did with the Zariman. What? I hzve no idea, it's a very volatile and grey area so what DE says I'll likely accept as "reality". Which is why lore-wise, it'd be a better shot than relying on some wonder drug such as the Kuva Blood again. Heck, it doesn't even have to be tied to the void, they could even progressively infuse themselves with more and more technology (or infestation, a la Mutalist Alad but more advanced) and attain the same kind of power the Kuva Liches attained. Anything goes, in my eyes. Not that the Corpus couldn't get their hands on Orokin Blood and make their own experiments, for that matter. I do hope we see some semblance of this in the future, just not as part of the Lich system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firetempest Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Corpus 'liches' can simply be Frohd Beks escalation of the ambulas system. After barely surviving the defeat on Pluto. He tests new learning AI proxies against the Tenno directly because he's pissed. Every level up after getting killed, the proxies update defenses. Thralls are other units it takes over directly like corrupted. You now have the orokin angle as it uses Neural Sentry tech. Hack the corrupted with a spike in the head and slowly learn the shutdown codes for that proxy. And now you have Liches without being liches. The randomization of the big three robot bodies would be cool, some being quads, others being bipedal and flyers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see it more like Alad Vs Amalgam program vs an Ambulas. I mean you could include both to add more variety but I dont see AI proxies becoming a Lich type enemy when these enemies will wield the weaponry that the reward comes from.

Alad is a fringe case and should be concidered with sentient factions than being half tied to what represents corpus. Proxy nemeses don't have to look like moa or raptors we currently have at all. Like here are some early concepts of orb units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proxy nemeses don't have to look like moa or raptors we currently have at all. Like here are some early concepts of orb units. They can do both. Fortuna brought two Amalgam weapons with the Battacor and the pistol (name escapes me). With that in mind it's not just limited to Alad V as you have the Orb Mothers also being of Sentient/Corpus design and the Corpus on Fortuna also having some unique abilities. So right there you have multiple Corpus factions having acquired Amalgam technology. And I think combining the two would be a more interesting offering of Lichs compared to The Grineer.
