New Factions

[kageshi1]

What is everyone's opinions on a new faction?

 

My thought was introducing an Arachnid Faction. 

 

They house them selves on the outer rim on the galaxy. Invading worlds. The corpus have seen there fair share of them and invented the Jackle and many other legged weapons to defend from this faction. The only problem is the abilities this factions has. Accounts have shown they can climb on walls and even on the ceiling. some are mechanical and others are organic. But there weapons are to be feared. There poisons and web like mines, makes tennos watch out where they step.

 

The major hand a tenno can find on this faction is that fact that the Arachnids will fight each other for food. Food being you. So seeing some minor quarrel between the faction will be a benefit to tennos.  

 

But the Arachnids bring bountiful resources which they make from there own body. A silk that can be used for it chemicals in stronger weapons and explosive abilities. They are a rather tough faction and any unprepared tenno will have there hands full, even the smallest of Arachnids.  However watch out for the sacs they hide around on ships. as they  can bring more trouble then riches.

 

Proofs that Arachnids have potential is mostly because of the Saryn class. The Arachnids hold similar looks in comparison to the Saryn Tenno. However, there many legs hold differences, because they are a similar idea of spiders.

 

Arachnids Attacks:

 

Slows down tennos: Watch out if you get hit by one of the hunter classes you can see alot of slowing down. similar to that of the void.

 

Poison induced attacks: some of the melee attacks the Arachnids use are poison attacks. most of these Arachnids like to hang from ceilings and pounce there targets... so dont for get to look up. This Chemical they use in there poison can eat even the strongest tenno's armor.

 

Webbed barricades: Some time the Arachnids will block tenno's ways by erecting a wall of web. preventing Tenno from going any further. But a couple wacks and you can easily travers farther.  

 

Surprise attacks: This faction with bring alot of sneaky surprises to tennos. If you see one, you will see many. They hunt for food and tenno are there favorite. 

 

Acid Mines: Watch out tenno, there mines acidic and stepping on one can eat your energy and armor.

 

Boss:

 

Mother: This is the largest boss a tenno has even fought. Imagine the jackle room. but bigger. Mother is the queen of Arachnids, getting even close to her is a challenge. Taking out any of here legs will bring her down but she likes to hang on the ceiling so getting a hit on her before then is important. 

 

Rebel Arachnids: The faction has many inside Quarrels some say that there food source can be obtained  on a better and easier grounds and others will say full conquest is better for the faction. Killing either leaders will gain many benefits to the tennos and the galaxy. As retreat is a one of many options they will do. But getting to them is a strange trip itself. some will use other factions as catalyst. preserving them for later transport. 

 

 

 

 

 

Tell me what would be interesting as a Faction. Cus I'm just hoping we get another faction to increase the diversity of the warframe universe.

Seems interesting, though a departure from the current pattern of all factions being human and human-created.

As for my own ideas for new factions:

Lotus's dialogue says that the golem was created by the orokin (probably as a bio-weapon, possibly like the other infested) in the war against the sentience/sentients. Maybe the reappearance of a race of sentient androids or something in the solar system could be a way to introduce a new faction.

 

And this one is a bit more far-fetched, but it has been stated that the Tenno that we play as awake from cryosleep after a long period of time, with no memories. This seems to be a fundamental factor in the "lotus is evil" theories. It is possible that she is manipulating the tenno for her own causes, taking advantage of the fact that they have no memories with which to form the basis of their beliefs regarding who is "right" and who is "wrong." The recent E3 trailer showed the grineer almost getting their hands on a newly awakened tenno, before being interrupted by, presumably, lotus-commanded tenno. However, just as easily, the grineer, or the corpus, may have gotten there too early for any intervention. It may not be completely unthinkable that the other factions may, like the lotus may be, awaken, then manipulate the amnesiac tenno to join their own respective causes. While this wouldn't be a truly separate faction, the corpus and grineer may, with the introduction of this pseudo-faction, be able to deploy tenno "spec ops" cells into battle.

I wish the stalkers where player controlled. it would be so awesome to get a mission where you have to PvP. but only rarely. Dont want it abused.

How about small groups of rogue Tenno - like mercenaries? Like the stalker, but not so powerful.
