Quest: Vor's Score

Quest Start: Enter you ship.
Quest start Inbox Message giver: Cressa, Leader of the Steel Meridian
Quest start Inbox Message: Hey, Tenno. I need to speak to you ASAP, meet me at the Relay.

First Task: Talk to Cressa at the Relay.

Cressa: Thank you for coming Tenno.
I just got a report that our flag ship is under attack,
by Vor, and his void cronies.
Likely to take back what we just took from his old laboratory.
My 2nd in command, General Kaiser, is captain of that ship,
I need you to go and rescue him, and retrieve the equipment.
~
Quest Mission 1: Void Fissure Operative Defense/Evacuation
Tile Set: Steel Meridian Capital Ship
Enemies: Corrupt

Upon getting on the ship, you receive a message.
Message Giver: Cressa
Message: Your main objective to to find General Kaiser,
and retrieve the crates taken from Vor's lab.

Step 1: Find General Kaiser

Upon finding General Kaiser, he and some Meridian soldiers are fighting with Vor and his corrupt.

General Kaiser: So she sent Tenno.
That's fine, just help me get rid of these pests.

General Kaiser Appearance: Large old man wearing thick white Grineer power-armor.
The armor has black night-watch designs on the armor pieces,
all the cloth parts are red and metal is a pale gold.
Most of his head is metal, his face, massively burnt/scared and wrinkled.
His right eye is covered with a scoped-eye-patch.
He is bald, but has a grey beard, a tube comes out of his mouth from the left side,
wrapping around his neck and attaching to his backpack.
His left arm is heavily armored, and sheaths his sword.
On his hip, is a impressive hand-gun.

General Kaiser Fighting Style,
Pistol in heavily armored shield like left arm's hand, sword in right hand.
General Kaiser can use the powers of the warframe sharing the same name.

Step 2: Defend General Kaiser from Vor and his army,
while extracting crates and crew.

Some crew will be carrying creates, they will be highly targeted.
If one is staggered, knocked down, or killed, they will drop the create.
A void enemy will try to take it then attempt to exit the map.
Tenno can pick up the dropped crates, but it takes both arms,
preventing them from using any weapons or powers that need arms.

Vor will retreat when he gets to 25% health.
But will return after 1 minute at full health.

Step 2 has 100 crates to extract.
Every crate you extract gets you 10000 credits, 1000 endo, and 100 kuva.

Every 5 Meridian crew members you save,
gets you a Meridian Reinforcements Specter.

Deploying a Meridian Reinforcements Specter,
summons 5 random Meridian soldier allies.
They are any of the Grineer units, but with black armor, and white decals.
Soldiers include, Lancer, Seeker, Ballista, Heavy Gunner, Trooper, Bombard, ect.

At mission complete,
Vor will teleport near General Kaiser, grab him, then teleport away.

~~~~~~~~~~
Quest Mission 2: Rescue / Extraction / Sabotage-Defense / Extraction
Tile Set: Void
Enemies: Corrupt

Message Giver: Cressa
Message: Damn it, I should have known they only cared about getting him.
Listen, Kaiser, he isn't a normal Grineer.
He is a Grineer clone Hybrid Vor created using the DNA of a dead Tenno and the broken husk of a warframe he found years ago.
General Kaiser came out as perfect as he could have hoped, he was loyal to Vor, served as his right hand for many years, 
but Vor became obsessed with the Tenno, he wanted to make an army, and now that he has Kasier, he just might be able to.
You need to get Kaiser out of the Void, and destroy any research about cloning him.

Step one: Find General Kaiser.

You find him on an operating table, all that remains is his torso, right arm, and half of his head,
but he is alive.

General Kaiser: *grumble* ... Tenno, you here to destroy me before Vor can make his army?
Player Tenno: Cressa sent me to rescue you, and destroy any research I find.
General Kaiser: Well, you're too late. He already had everything setup to make the clones, all he needed was my DNA.
Player Tenno: What?!
General Kaiser: You'll need to destroy this place to halt his army building.

Step two: carry General Kaiser's remains to extraction.

Step three: find the central power station and overcharge it.
Upon activation the console to the central power station,
Vor and Kaiser clones will attack you, as well as waves of Corrupt.
You have to defend the central power station for 5 waves,
every wave Vor and 2 Kaiser clones will attack.
At the end of wave 5, you have 1 minute to escape the place as it falls apart.

Beating the mission gets you a one-time use General Kaiser Specter.
General Kaiser Specter, and Meridian Reinforcements Specter, 
become purchasable from Steel Meridian at General Rank.

When Corrupt Vor appears in missions from now on,
he will be accompanied by 2 Kaiser Clones.
Kaiser Clones have a chance to drop Krieger warframe parts.

Tweeking

[CrashingBull]

Well i like the general idea i just think its too overpowered especially the 4th ability and the passive ability :)

[OhTheIrony]

I agree the passive is really overpowered, but the 4th ability is pretty interesting. Just need's some number tweaks.

 

I have a proposed change for the passive. How about this?
 

After your hp goes to 0, you get say... 7 seconds to kill as many enemies as you can, and you get a damage boost but a severe movement penalty. You can use abilities but with a severe energy cost. Each enemy you kill adds 1 second to your bleedout timer, but your timer is reduced to a base of 4 seconds. You can't use your 4th ability though, and it is deactivated if you are downed.

[General_Durandal]

Unbreakable passive now has some added negatives to make it less OP, and kills only give 1 second of extra time instead of 2.

Jetpack drain is now 25/20/15/10 per second.

Reduced Jetpack Bombardment's damage.

[General_Durandal]

Can no longer bullet jump while bleeding out.

All Grenades range has been reduced, but strength has been increased.

Can now attach Turrets to Bulwarks, creating a stronger turret.

Increased Bombardment's range.

[General_Durandal]

Fancied up his page.

Removed his ability to use powers while bleeding out.

Concussion Grenade no longer knocks enemies down, but does stager them.

Frag Grenade now knocks enemies down.

Reduced Turrets Damage.
Increased Turrets damage when attached to a Bulwark.

[General_Durandal]

Grammar tweaks/fixes

Reduced speed and agility, raised jump.

Reduced Duration of Concussion Grenade's stun.

Reduced Flash Grenade's blind duration.

Reduced Chaff Grenade's duration.

Added first mission of the quest.

 

[General_Durandal]

Grammar tweaks/fixes

Added 2nd part of the quest-line.

Umm what 0_0.

Also, I noticed he has no shields. Does he have some method of regaining health, or does he have to play without them? IE a high damage, but less durable frame?

At rank 30 he has 900 health and 900 armor.
Passive let's him move like normal while bleeding-out, 
while bleeding-out killing enemies extends his bleed-out time.

Edited May 28, 2017 by General_Durandal

[General_Durandal]

Increased max throw range for Grenades.

Increased Turret damage bonus when attached to a Bulwark.

[General_Durandal]

Tweaking.

[General_Durandal]

Name Kaiser changed to Krieger.

Added Codex Blurb.

[General_Durandal]

Grammar tweaks.

Reduced Bombardment's target range.

[General_Durandal]

I'm open for ideas.

[(XBOX)AxRollxOfxTape]

You should think about changing up his energy limit, and about adding how much energy each power would use.

More energy, less drain?

Less energy, more drain?

More, more?

Less, less?

Well given how based around damage he is I would recommend having more max power than 90, because his powers would use so much energy to cast. You would only be able to cast maybe your first ability 2 or 3 times before you have no energy at all. Which would then make him a sitting duck with nothing to really defend himself against anything because he has no shields. And I don't believe you have any drains listed.

He's had quite a bit of work done since the last time you saw him.

What to you think about his current setup?

[General_Durandal]

Build 2.2

Lowered Power.

Increased Anchored Turret Augment Damage.

[General_Durandal]

[shadowstrikeomega]

it is a good idea and would love to see it in the game

[NS120121]

Sounds pretty cool, Limbo can cheese through the crate mission though. He just needs to banish the escortee and easy peasy lmao.
