Should You Have A Kubrow? A Frame By Frame Analysis

Recommended Posts

So, with Kubrows coming soon, it has to be asked whether or not each frame is a good fit as a Kubrow owner or not. Heres my frame by frame analysis of whether a Kubrow is for you (with som e assumptions of dog/wolf analogue.

 

Ash - This is one of those that could go either way. Ash is the exemplification of ninja, and ninjas work alone. Except when they look badass with a wolf/dog sidekick. So, your choice really

 

Banshee - No. Your sonic based powers are going to be a bit much for the sensitive hearing dogs are known for

 

Ember - No. Do you have any idea how bad singed fur smells?

 

Excalibur - Yes. Radial javelin is great for playing fetch.

 

Frost - Yes. Nothing says arctic warrior than having a furry beasty by your side. Maybe wait for Saint Bernard or Husky variants though.

 

Hydroid - No. You have a parrot already , don't be greedy!

 

Loki - Yes. The enhanced sense of smell will add a fun dimension to invisibility aided hide and seek

 

Mag - Yes. Crush plus some neaby grineer is great for playing fetch.

 

Nova - Yes. Null star is great for playing fetch, and wormhole is a great cheat for walkies.

 

Nekros - No. Therees a decidedly boney aspect to your frames design. Bones and dogs, not a good combo.

 

Nyx - Possibly. On the upside, you'll know just when to put him outside before you have any accidents.

 

Oberon - Yes. Your a blooming nature spirit blokey. You bloody well should have one or you not being proper.

 

Rhino - Yes. Just remember to let go of the lead before Charging

 

Saryn - No. Your noxious and virulent abilities tend to pong a bit, not fair on an animal known for a sensitive nose. Plus dogs have a tendency to eat anything they come across, not a good trait when your flinging toxic spores around.

 

Trinity - Yes. No pricey vet bills, as your abilities handle all that. Wait for a St Bernard variant for the proper look of things if possible.

 

Valkyr - Maybe. Ripline makes a handy lead, though can cause some unfortunate accidents. Bastet helm is a definite no-no though, its 'ears' and bell on its collar may cause some confusion as to whether they should be following you or chasing you.

 

Vauban - Yes. All your abilities involve throwing balls. You do the math.

 

Volt Yes. - Speed is great for walkies, though you may want to wait for Greyhound variant

 

Zephyr - No. You entire theme is flight and mobility. Even the most faithful of hound is going to sit there with an expression that says 'how am I supposed to get there?' as you zoom into the rafters. Also, if you're shot by a sniper in mid-air, he may end up dragging you to the shooter.

Can Frost have a giant white Direwolf like Kubrow along with another companion that says "You know nothing Frost!"?

 

Only if Ember gers a demonic Cerberus looking one with devil horns that breathes fire and calls out "Houndoom!" every once in a while.

I forget if Kubrows were mentioned in the devstream on the 4th......but since they seem to be coming soon, will they be customizable?  Hope I don't sound like I'm asking for too much here, but customization is always a nice feature to have.  Maybe Kubrows can have body-plates like Warframes can?  They'd be aesthetic, though, and won't have an effect on stats....though now that I mentioned stats......naw I'll leave that for now.

Kubrows have innate traits that are dominate and recessive. These traits can be traded with someone else to create a different Kubrow with a mixture of these traits.

Infested Kubrow, maybe?

I'd suggest Ember Prime for the part of the "other companion". Her flaming red hair seems to fit well. At least that's how I imagine Ember's hair below the helmet.

 

What Frost knows:

 

99% nothing

1% where to put the bubble.

I dunno, I'm kind of thinking that Ember Prime would be on the side of the World with a huge army and marching the wrong way with it to derp around in a city that no one cares about instead of just going to the main capital place to kick &#! and win back the Rubidium Throne.
