Stalker Game Mode

[(PSN)ApexAvatar]

The Non-playable character The Stalker, is a fan favorite and many people customize their Ash to look like The Stalker and use his weapons since he's the closest we have to playing with him. But we have the conclave matches and dojo dueling so we know PvP is possible, and we have the Specters which give us an aspect of PvP in an online game while also being able to play with many people in the clan dojo at the same time.

So I've had an idea for a while now that I believe could work. How about adding a mode to the game where you get to play as the stalker? Hear me out before leaving this post. There are many prime items that drop in the void and keys that drop in missions, but what if you could earn a Stalker Key (0.1% drop chance for rarity)? Giving you the ability to invade another players games at random choice that have been marked by The Stalker, giving you his weapons and abilities. Your mission is to take out the target and escape. Killing the target could reward you with some sort of prize and if you are killed they have a chance of getting one of his weapon blueprints and a mod like normal. That way both players are fighting for a chance at a reward instead of Stalker's controller allowing an easy kill to help the Target earn his weapons.

The mode could then be based of a point system like events, killing the target gives a certain amount, escaping gives another set of points, and for each partner of his you kill before escaping let's you obtain additional points. These points then tally up to give you a special reward ranging from mods, prime parts, and/or large credit rewards. Killing all 3 teammates and the target could be a challenge so maybe this is how the next Prime character could be dropped? Or maybe the return of Excalibur Prime? Since The Stalker is the last of the true Orokin (according to Warframe Lore) and Excalibur is the first Tenno turned Warframe they would be the closest of rivals.

The idea would be cool, but I don't think a forced PvP mode would be appreciated by everyone. Include me as an opposer to PvP. The Stalker is annoying enough as he is as an NPC.

Also, Excalibur Prime won't come back. I think this was clarified already.

This has been suggested sooo many times, It's an awful idea In my opinion.

He was accidentally showed in a Dev Stream not to long ago and they tried to close it out really quick saying they weren't supposed to show us that. So their is a possibility of return. And everyone has been asking for an update to the Stalker because he dies to quick. I kill him with one shot. But if you've played Watch Dogs you may know about the random game invading, you could turn it off in the settings. That could be an option here, but per-say the reward was greater for killing a PvP player.

So their is a possibility of return.

if you are talking about excalibur prime, skana prime, or lato prime, rebecca confirmed those founder items are exclusive, and will not come back.
