Guybrush88 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Why unvault Chroma Prime? He was only vaulted last July, So would be less than 10months in the vault. Whereas Volt Prime, Mag Prime, Loki Prime have been in the vault for more than 2 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereas Volt Prime, Mag Prime, Loki Prime have been in the vault for more than 2 years Well Volt does reappear in Baro from time to time and I do believe some of these older warframe relics are planned to return into the reward pools in void storms as permanent additions. (I think Ash was also announced), now to what extent remains to be seen. If they do this they should figure a way to add there accessories packs for purchase in the rotation and it could result in Vaulted primes being out of the Vault faster.

TeaHands Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 As a Chroma main who wanted him to come back for selfish reasons, I am very confused on why he's already unvaulted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReddyDisco Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Unvault Loki Prime, Mag Prime, Rhino Prime (gave him a damn new skin)? Na that would make too much sense /s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duality52 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 I'm guessing it has to do with the Imugi Prime Armor and Chroma Prime's weapons. After all, Chroma Prime's Accessories are pretty good and his weapons are likely more popular. Still, it feels weird since the past Unvaultings focused on unvaulting frames that were vaulted for one year and a frame that has been vaulted for around two years: Valkyr Prime & Saryn Prime (September 2019) Ash Prime & Vauban Prime (November 2019) Oberon Prime & Nekros Prime (February 2020) Nova Prime & Trinity Prime (May 2020) Frost Prime & Ember Prime (September 2020) Mirage Prime & Banshee Prime (December 2020) Aside from Frost Prime & Ember Prime due to DE working on the Heart of Deimos, Valkyr Prime, Ash Prime, Nekros Prime, Trinity Prime, and Banshee Prime are the Prime frames who were vaulted for more than 2 years before they were unvaulted.

smashedwookie Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Would really wished we could get a post detailing the reasoning behind the Chroma choice @[DE]Rebecca. Considering he was just put back in the vault last july, not even been a full year since. Many other frame have been in the vault longer and would have been great choices.

KnossosTNC Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 I still remember when Unvaultings were two months long, and had breaks between. I remember when they first added Unvaulted relics to the Void, which made me so thoroughly sick of the sight of Neo relics I called them "Silver Cancer." I don't think the old rules of Unvaultings apply any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0_The_F00l Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 i suspect its based on the PA sales (i have no proof its just speculation). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazerXPrime Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 This is good. Gather some of them prime parts and wait for him to be vaulted again and sell at premium. Then buy the prime frames you actually wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guybrush88 Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 If it was money, then I would assume unvaulting Mag Prime, Volt Prime & Loki Prime would probably generate more sales since there would be more players, especially newer players, who dont have those warframes yet right? Chroma Prime is only 30p-50p on warframe.market. Loki Prime is 400p-500p. So players would probably be more inclined to buy a Loki Prime access rather than a Chroma Prime acess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tesseract7777 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Because they expect him to sell well. Same with Zephyr, eyes are on her because of new rework and deluxe skin. They want to capitalize on that and strike while the iron is hot. And it doesn't matter how many times they nerf him, Chroma will always have a niche as a personal weapons buffer, so of course they are expecting good sales. People want him. They want his damage buffing powers. It's not complex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)Kakurine2 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Lol poster over the last like 2 years each frame you mention has been unvaulted. Hell they have unvaulted everything older at least once in the last 2 years. You just aren't paying attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also like a year ago with someone. I'd have to look at exact dates but all the primes that are older have been unvaulted over like the last 2 years.

(PSN)Kakurine2 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Idiots shouldn't be spending hundreds of plat on loki prime. He's dam near useless. And he's been unvaulted twice over the past 2 years. Just use normal loki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ember Prime was over 1200 Platinum for a set at one point. Loki Prime hasn't reached expensive levels yet. I bet DE will give out Loki Prime for TennoCon or add his Relics somewhere. DE is well aware of their decisions when unvaulting items, and it is calculated. Loki Prime may be way more expensive than Chroma, but Chroma likely has better sales figures for selling more powerful and relevant weapons. Rubico Prime compliments Zephyr's Kronen Prime much better for sales than the Bo Prime, not to mention Loki's accessories do not compare to Chroma's. The Prime Vault is a flawed system since day 1, but DE rather milk this than really create a healthy system for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki Prime's price, AFAIK, has stayed pretty steady over the years. Even back in the void tower days when you had to do rot c defense over and over to get the systems, well before it was vaulted, he was about 400-500p. Now he's about 400-500p when vaulted. Players think that's about what he is worth, and I doubt removing him from the vault temporarily is even going to drop it that much, and even then only very temporarily. Loki Prime has a fairly set value as far as the community is concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
