He isn't the only frame. It's unfair. Excalibur is the first. Meant to Lead. DE can just flip the Umbras idea to just Excalibur only, or as Stalker did, put Neuroptics on any Frames and be done with it. PS Technically Excalibur is the Alpha (First of Kind). "Posterboy" is a nickname but not Official Tittle. Thus each Tennos or Ex/Former Tennos can choose their own Frame that they favor above all if they suit. 6 hours ago, (PS4)Silverback73 said: The most important take? King Arthur's castle (Lotus' Moon) and the Knight's Roundtable within (Tenno and their pods) are collapsing as the sword is pulled. Many also fail to realize, as I've stated before, that the Excaliber Sword's true power resides in it's scabbard while sheathed. To pull the Sword in order to draw blood invites death. The Arthurian Legend ends in Tragedy. King Arthur: Legend of the Sword. I don't watch every Medieval Movie since the beginning of time, but this LoTS was well worth for the fast(er than other movies) pace. (And no I do not mean the unrealistic time jump if you are thinking that). Edited July 16, 2017 by DesFrSpace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People think they are like the stalker, or a Warframe with his operator stuck inside it just like Harrow, but yet we still don't know, and we will not know until DE says something about it maybe on next Devstream I do hope.

Or is that a different spear? Camlann is the location of the final battle, where Arthur impales Mordred on a spear whilst Mordred kills him with a sword.

It's when the Sword in the Stone is broken, that Merlin gets Arthur to come with him to the Lady to receive Excalibur. And...I personally wonder if that aspect of the legend, of the broken sword being replaced, is what they're going for; note that the entity with laboured assisted breathing and the heart monitor going ceases around the point Umbra shows up. What's a person to Ballas but a tool, after all, ultimately replaceable? But that's speculation on my part. Could be wrong, after all. Apologies for going on, as always. Actually ive read that there are many versions of this legend and in some versions excalibur IS sword in the stone, quote from wikipedia: "In Arthurian romance, a number of explanations are given for Arthur's possession of Excalibur. In Robert de Boron's Merlin, the first tale to mention the "sword in the stone" motif, Arthur obtained the British throne by pulling a sword from an anvil sitting atop a stone that appeared in a churchyard on Christmas Eve. In this account, the act could not be performed except by "the true king," meaning the divinely appointed king or true heir of Uther Pendragon. This sword is thought by many to be the famous Excalibur, and its identity is made explicit in the later Prose Merlin, part of the Lancelot-Grail cycle. However, in what is called the Post-Vulgate Cycle, Excalibur was given to Arthur by the Lady of the Lake sometime after he began to reign. She calls the sword "Excalibur, that is as to say as Cut-steel." In the Vulgate Mort Artu, Arthur orders Griflet to throw the sword into the enchanted lake. After two failed attempts (as he felt such a great sword should not be thrown away), he finally complies with the wounded king's request and a hand emerges from the lake to catch it, a tale which becomes attached to Bedivere instead in Malory and the English tradition. Malory records both versions of the legend in his Le Morte d'Arthur, naming both swords as Excalibur." Also by the way sword in the stone legend may been based on another legedary sword: Gram which was sword in a tree "Barnstokkr" Edited July 16, 2017 by Culaio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironic for the frame, and genuinely made me chuckle when I linked the two. But uh... does this make Umbra King Arthur now, or what? That's where I got lost. Did anybody else catch this though? Maybe he is some dark king frame. And yea thats why he have gold and he is not the prime. He is better than prime. He is king umbra 😏😊👌 Edited July 16, 2017 by Vlada91 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever read the Stalkers codex entry? The Tenno kinda won, even though it ended up costing the Orokin countless soldiers and Warframes, and who knows how many Tenno on top of whatever else was destroyed. ((No seriously who knows? We've never been told, not even estimates, and aside from some of the parts of the "Natah" and "Second Dream" quests and Lua and the upcoming "Plains of Eidolon" there really isn't any actual old battlefields shown to give scale to just how much S#&$ went down during the Old War.)) Outside of Battalysts and Conculysts we don't even know what the main Sentient body can do either. The Orokin were all killed off by the Tenno after they beat the Sentients.

Even with that, what the Warframes were fighting were little Sentients, like Battalists & Conculists, and now we saw that Sentients can be the size of a f*cking planet. How could we win against that? Were not going to kill them with our archwings. Edited July 16, 2017 by Xenox_Ilz-ot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kronxito Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 (edited) This is my guess. I think it will be required sacrificing a primed warframe to get its umbra counterpart. So excal umbra will be only available for founders. And Frost Umbra will be released as an "Umbra Access" pack at the same time Excal Umbra is released. What do you think about this?

Jeoxz Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I think this has no bases to stand on. The sacrifice couldn't even be our sacrifice, Ballas was talking to nobodyknowswho on deathbed. Frost Umbra, that's out of nowhere. And making another exclusive for founders 5 years later? Yeah not likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calwon5 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 There's no reason or evidence that shows that only founders would be able to receive umbra excal. Nor is it logical to make an assumption that non founders will receive umbra frost instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marine027 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I not want to soudn rude but i sitll will do. I want to punch you in the face for assumpiton such, you relaly want the FOrum to tear itself aaprt apperently. Why you doing this? causign antoher Excal Prime thread indirectly now projecitng it on Umbra before its goddamn out. This Umbra Hype already got on my nerves and is unnecesary sicne it won't be the holy grail as some see it. And now oyu come here claim foudners onyl will get it also.

NationalGuard5 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I'm looking forward to Excalibur Umbra. He's the answer to those who fault the Excalibur Prime (seriously, he's a slightly golden Excalibur with a Void Key jammed in his helmet). Now the majority of players can flaunt a skirt-twirling knight who can skewer enemies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
