(PSN)NewAgeDoom Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 (edited) Premise: Since we've had the shadow/darkness/undead based Warframe in Nekros, I figured I'd try my hand at the opposite end of the spectrum. Lore: A shining beacon in a time of darkness, Alexander has long been the chosen Warframe of those Tenno who wish to protect the innocent, to smite the wicked, and bring low the forces of evil. Long have the Orokin held respect for those few Tenno that can master it's defensive prowess. To master Alexander is to give of yourself for the good of the squad. Are you prepared, Tenno? Passive: Blesser of Souls Allies near Alexander receive increased health regen. Alexander also gains 1% armor for each enemy unit near him, up to a maximum of 10% (10 yard range) First Ability - Divine Spark: Alexander unleashes a pulse of holy energy around him, dealing Radiation damage and healing allies' shields. (Improved by Strength and Range mods) Second Ability - Aegis of Light: Alexander raises his shield, granting himself armor and resistances for a duration. Damage dealt to nearby allies during this time is redirected to Alexander. (Improved by Strength and Range Mods) Third Ability - Savior: Alexander dashes to target allied or enemy unit. If the target is an allied Tenno, that ally will be granted a shield for a portion of Alexander's armor in health, separate from their current shielding. If the unit is an enemy, that enemy and all nearby enemies will be dealt radiation damage and stunned for 3 seconds. (Improved by Range and Duration mods) Ultimate - Sanctify: Alexander sanctifies the very ground he walks on. For a duration, a radius around Alexander will grant allies invulnerability and immunity to control impairing effects. However, during this time, Alexander cannot attack or use abilities, but can still move/perform Maneuvers.

I always got more Druid, especially with the Fairy King connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nocam Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 It's the armor and the abilities. Hallowed Ground is a traditional paladin ability. Consecrate the ground. He Smites enemies with holy wrath (Radiation), he uses holy power to lift and slam, with enemies getting a rad proc and being blinded by holy justice. I get a huge paladin feel from him. Especially if you give him Fragor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LunarEdge7 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Please don't take the radiation dmg that only Oberon's abilities has and throw that specialty away. He trivializes alloy armor units nicely. If this frame comes out, Oberon will probably lose its place in Warframe in 2 years' time. Like.. only used by me.

He's tied for my favorite frame, so it ain't just you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, there's been at least 3 different takes on stealth frames, no reason there can't be more than one "Holy" frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivara is Ranged stealth. Ash is melee stealth. Loki is utility stealth. So they varied them up. This frame is basically an Oberon rework. Now, if it was pure damage, that'd be a different story.

I'll do some fiddling/changes to make him more of a protection paladin, rather than a damage paladin with a splash of healing akin to Oberon.

Someone designed to take the righteous fury of their god and use it to destroy evil heathens. That would work, without S#&$ting on Oberon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nocam Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 See, NOW I'd play him. He's a Defender, a Bastion. A perfect teamup with Trinity, Oberon, and Rhino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General_Durandal Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Alexander was a warrior, not a holy man. His powers should be combat based. With a buff for allies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
