What are prime sets

[tinytuskk]

I've been looking at the market and I was thinking about buying the parts to gauss prime but I saw the prime set and was wondering what that was like. If its just the warframe already built or just every piece could anyone help?

Prime Set on the warframe market is when a person sells all blueprints/parts required to craft a thing. For example, selling chassis blueprint, neuroptics blueprint, system blueprint and the main blueprint all together.

As above said.

In general, in most cases, "Set" is where you have all blueprints but you may need materials (e.g. Argon crystal). There are probably few cases where you need farm/buy one part (blueprint) even thought it says "set".

Just to add to the  answer already given, built parts cannot be traded.

When someone sells a Warframe set for a Warframe (for example, Gauss), that means they are selling the following:

• Gauss Prime Blueprint
• Gauss Prime Chassis Blueprint
• Gauss Prime Systems Blueprint
• Gauss Prime Neuroptics Blueprint

These are all of the blueprints that you need to craft Gauss Prime.  However, note that to build each of these, you will need some resources.  For example, you'll need some Nitain, Rubedo, Cryotic, etc.  These resources will not be a part of the set you are purchasing, as most resources can't be traded; you'll have to earn all of them on your own.

Once you have the necessary materials, you can build your blueprints in the Orbiter, which will take roughly half a week of construction time.

Worth clarifying that while this is true for built Warframe parts, it is not a universal truth for all built parts; for example, built Necramech parts can be traded.

If you mean the in game market, the only thing I can think of that applies is the Gauss Prime Access or Prime Pack.  If you purchase any prime access from DE, all the components are already built.  (And in the case of frames and weapons, come with reactors/catalysts built in, as well as frame/weapon slots.)

If you meant Warframe Market, the third party trading site, the previous answers apply.
