Can Combine Prime /no Prime Warframe Variants ?

[NudePony]

If you get the helmet skin when you build a prime why not the "body variant" to ? and vise versa,

 

A posibilitiy can be for example... you get clasic ember and later you get the prime version, you still gain exp (or not?) leveling prime version, but you get the "body variant" from ember prime so, you can use it on your clasic version if you have a ember with many formas and you dont want change it. in this way you can delete, which do not use

 

can be understand?

Basically Primes as skins.

DE alr went with tiering and stuff.

I dont think it will happen.

If anything, the Primes should be able to 'downgrade' aesthetically to the original versions, not vice versa.

wont happen. DE already confirmed that the Primes will stay as separate warframes cause they messed up when making Excalibur prime. They originally intended to have them as skins, but went and made them separate frames.
Also, getting the prime as a skin, would kinda defeat the purpose of the primes being separate frames to begin with.

I don't think so, just because the Primes were the first doesn't mean they were worse then the new Tenno variant. The Primes were made during the Orokin era, the peak of the human race. They had better tech, more skilled craftsmen and probably an abundance of wealth. The Tenno made their Warframes after the war, and fall of the Orokin Empire, which is usually when civilization is at one of it's lowest points resulting in less then amazing tech and in this case Warframes.

you can disguise the prime as a basic, alt heads and immortal skins make the prime in question look like a basic.
