Roogan Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 ...you know primes are not limited to tenno weapons and that it could be quite a while before a prime version of it does come out right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoticVice777 Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 ...you know primes are not limited to tenno weapons and that it could be quite a while before a prime version of it does come out right? Currently, all the Prime weaponry are limited to Tenno weaponry. *shrugs* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlimShazbot Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Techncally the Braton is corpus. It has corpus lettering on the side of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dasmir Posted July 27, 2013 Author Share Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) Techncally the Braton is corpus. It has corpus lettering on the side of it. The Corpus are in the Top in weaponry Tech and they a have tons of orokin structures in their bases so is not a big surprise if the braton is a pirated orokin tech by the corpus.

taiiat Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) so is not a big surprise if the braton is a pirated orokin tech by the corpus. that's some mighty powerful Orokin tech there, lol. a gun that shoots the equivalent of 5.56x45mm, at a high rate of fire, with mediocre accuracy, and a higher than average magazine. if that's what we should expect from Orokin tech o.0 maybe i'd rather build my own guns, lmao. i thought Orokin tech was supposed to be from a forgotten race / age from some super advanced people and blah blah. the Braton is effectively an M16, so where's the 'super advanced'? ;) Edited July 27, 2013 by taiiat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythrex Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 ...you know primes are not limited to tenno weapons and that it could be quite a while before a prime version of it does come out right?

N4G4M4K1 Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Primes are an insentive to not give a S#&$. I personally think primes should be a weapon skin that gives the additional benefits, or an upgrade that the regular version can go through. That would accomplish a few things; • Wouldn't steer people away from regular weapons, they would see more wide use. • Would give reason to potato/forma the regular version, seeing as how the Prime quality would just act as another upgrade. (They would retain their polarities and mod capacity; maybe even throw in a polarity change alongside the Prime upgrade process?) • Contribute to the games already deep weapon customization. • All-around more convinient.

Volt_Cruelerz Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 ...you know primes are not limited to tenno weapons and that it could be quite a while before a prime version of it does come out right? Actually, they are. Primes were the original Orokin weapons. The Tenno weapons are just the modern reconstructions of the original using what limited scraps we can piece together to give to the few Orokin Foundries that still stand.

Roogan Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 When I said "tenno weapons" I'm talking about weapons made by the tenno, not just weapons that tenno use, the Braton and Bronco weapons for example are not tenno made weapons like the Paris or the Orthos, but all of those have prime versions.

theammostore Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Waiting for the prime one for potato then. have fun waiting a few months with your not-as-powerful-as-it-could-be weapon then. I'll be off enjoying it to it's fullest potential before I get the prime and have even more fun with it! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tenno weapons are just the modern reconstructions of the original using what limited scraps we can piece together to give to the few Orokin Foundries that still stand. Technically, primes are not limited to anything since any non-prime weapon with a prime counterpart is just a modern reconstruction of the Orokin weapon so any Grineer or Corpus weapon could potentially have a prime counterpart since both those factions have access to Orokin tech.

Braton is a Corpus weapon, as indicated by it's design and the Corpus writing on it. Tenno didn't make it for sure. If the Braton was based of a prime weapon, why can't, for example, Grakata or Gorgon? Currently every weapon could potentially have a prime.

Tangerine Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Yeah this is a bit of a problem. I think Primed variants should essentially be attainable by upgrading their normal versions or something. e.g. Priming a Braton. Rather than constructing the prime weapon itself, maybe construct a Prime Reactor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhorge Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Your first point mainly just points out contradictions in the Braton's description, background and aesthetics. The description says "favorite among Tenno", nothing about being made by the Tenno. My theory is that Tenno simply use the old Corpus rifles, replaced with the new Dera. I imagine that there would be tons of Bratons available for a low price. As for the research weapons: other than the bio lab weapons, they clearly appear to be just the normal weapons of other factions, and you could still argue that the bio lab weapons are based on Orokin tech anyway (toxic ancients created by Orokin, *wink wink*).
