Is there a reason we can't sell Umbra for credits?

I wonder who exactly you sell these frames to, it's not like credits can just appear out of things air, and your frame disappears

imo the answer is obvious

Imagine if you could sell the Operator. That'll be the same thing.

I'd sell it any day, any time.

Probably a counter measure so people don't sell him mid quest and #*!%ing the final part. We did get a chance to mod and do whatever we want right before going back to earth

Umbra is more important and not expendable lol

Dude, you have 2 equinox ?

[Brorelia]

Clearly to make you come on the forums asking a silly question.

No, fool. The philosophy of GROFIT is that you make profit with having growth in you business.

Only a short-sighted simpleon would make such decision: a short burst of profit... But then where is the growth? Where is the return for your... Donation... Yes... aside from just credits you would make in a Sector of Darkness, you lose an unique asset.

Goof? Profit? GOOFIT.

But the Tenno mode being your account, it would puff into nothingness on pulling the trigger on the sale. Or, of course you could accidentally sell yourself into slavery I guess but that seems dark for the direction Warframe has gone.

more like screaming autistic brother.

Do you even know what autism is, I would ask you to kindly never use that to describe anything, as a Major in psychology, and a person who is on the spectrum, this is disrespectful towards people who you don't remotely understand, thank you.

The real question is: why is it possible to sell Excalibur Prime?

As someone who has an autistic younger brother that I am VERY protective of, I agree with you, Sakasil. That comment was both shortsighted and insulting and I, too, would ask that you think before you speak, TheEnderboss. 

As for the topic at hand: I would have to agree with a number of people here. Why would you sell Excalibur Umbra? I am avoiding spoilers, but even I know that it may play a crucial role in a future quest. The fact that he also looks awesome is a great reason not to sell him as well. That scarf is amazing!

I think you should be able to scrap him.

Then an awesome cutscene will play out umbra killing the tenno which climaxes at you getting forced log out.

Finally when you tried to login again Ordis will speak : "Operator, i lost your biometrics for a moment there. What *WERE YOU THINKING ABOUT* happened?

Of course umbra still stay unsold.

I refuse to associate with that hideous creature created by DE and persistently showed down my throat. No matter how hard they try, I will not connect to it on emotional level and say 'that's me in this fictional universe'

You are in no way obliged to eat yourself.

I've also noticed I can't sell Lotus, the Orbiter, or my UI. 

If you think that's unreasonable, try out Nier.

Well hey, you have a hideous personality so DE just decided to show what you are on the inside to everyone on the outside.

I know how you feel there, I have a clanmate that insists that he is in fact an awareness that occupies his warframe collection and due to pity in 2nd Dream now essentially has a 'ward' to try to make useful to them.

[Educated_Beast]

So if umbra is unique and reassembled rather than rebuilt (clone), why do I see so many in relays.  We cannot ignore the fact that there is more than one.. 

We scanned and rebuilt the parts and uploaded the memory.  Otherwise, we have to pretend we are only tenno is a MMO game...

Pretty bad joke if you ask me.

I love Umbra I would never sell him but the way I see it you can’t sell him or his Skana so considering this it is 90% positive he is now a part of the story and will be needed in cutscenes and of that such

Sentience means that it’s capable of making decisions and having morality. It can feel sadness and emotion. It is aware of what you’re doing. Basically, it’s means Umbra is like a human. You’re selling a creature that understands that it is being sold.

Wrong. Sentience just means being capable of responding to sensory stimuli.

The more correct term in this case would be Sapience (which can be summarised as basic self-awareness, being able to both conceive of ideas and express them to others), but that does not imply emotion.

Saying it's a joke doesn't make any less offensive to others. If I called someone some offensive term and just called it a joke, does that make it okay? No. With friends, you generally know their boundaries with these kinds of things, but in public spaces you don't know you is reading your posts. Autism is a very serious topic and should never be made light of. Hope you can recognize that this isn't your local middle school cafeteria. 

[Zebiko]

You're asking a question no one knows except DE, and they aren't going to reveal the next major story arc (until maybe this tennocon).
