[Survey] Wraith...what Is The Next Appearance?

I think the Vulkar, Miter or Ignis.

 

I don't think clantech will ever see event versions because that would likely defeat the purpose of having to research and build the weapons. Though there is also the fact that the normal versions will be available for anyone who wasn't there for the event.

 

But really, Ogris Wraith.

From the lore perspective, we can make an educated guess as to the origin of Wraith items: The Red Veil. (DE said they would reintroduce event weapons to be re-released in the future, and I think the proxy wars are going to be their main mechanism.)

 

If the Red Veil are responsible for the Wraith Items, and all the Wraith items (barring Rakta) were originally Grineer stuff, then we can surmise that the Red Veil stole these weapons from the Grineer, then painted and modified them for their own faction and their supporters. 

 

How is this relevant? Well, all of the current wraith weapons are actually (somewhat) rare for the Grineer in terms of deployment by numbers, and it would make more sense that the more uncommon weapons would be harder to salvage/steal. Thus, inversely, the more common weapons would be a more likely catch (but at no less risk mind you. This is the Grineer we're dealing with, not mercenary thugs.)

 

If the more common weapons are more likely salvaged, then where is the Red Veil equivalent? For this reason, I believe that either Grakata or Karak will be the next Wraith.

 

As an alternate/counter theory, it may be be the common weapons are TOO common to be worth modding, and therefore only the rarer weapons are modded, if this is the case, the Kraken, Amphis, Furax, Miter, Sobek and Vulkar are all possible candidates (I don't believe Ogris, Ignis, or Jat Kittag will make wraith due to the controversy that may cause on DE's part. Still, anything's possible.)

 

(edit: forgot Hek as a contender for the rares! still, not likely with there already being a shot gun, strun.)

 

Personal picks for likely candidates: 

1.Vulkar {for rounding out the set with a sniper rifle}

2.Grakata {For lore and set balance}

3.Amphis {almost purely for lore, maybe for heavy melee weapon}

Interesting! And why not Tenno aspet with statistics?
