Warframe has had a recent update with the
addition of a new warframe known as Atlas along
with a new quest to acquire the parts for him and
newly added equipment. Not too long after, a
workshop integration with Steam titled ‘TennoGen’
will allow the rather large community of Warframe
to create content and possibly have it added to the
game as new content.
Atlas is a warframe that has control over the
earth and uses it for both offensive and defensive
purposes. Each of his powers allow him to go from
defence to offense; Landslide allows Atlas to rush
to enemies from a distance, hitting them with the
force of a literal landslide and the power of the
punch increases further and further with usage
over time. Tectonics allows him to create a wall
of rock to defend against gunfire and incoming
danger before being able to reform the wall into a
boulder of death, rolling towards the enemy and
exploding, dealing radial damage. Petrify allows
Atlas to slow down his enemies eventually turning
them into stone.
Whilst in this state, enemies are more susceptible
to damage and they are pretty much immobile
during this. Finally, Rumblers allows Atlas to
summon two golems made from the earth to fight
alongside him. These golems will be able to survive
most dangers but if they were to perish, in a last
ditch attempt, they will explode and deal damage
within a radius. Alternatively, they can be disabled
manually, still exploding during the processes,
damaging enemies they were near by.
The Jordas Precept quest concerns Ordis, the
players sentient companion, which finds a fellow
Cephalon (Ordis’s kind) which had its ship taken
over by an infestation. The quest follows several
missions eventually leading towards the Cephalon
in question. The missions will go from the ground
on foot in to the vacuum of space with the archwing.
New Archwing expansions such as the mobile
defence missions, defending against waves of
enemies in certain locations and archwing defence;
defend a single point of interest. Along with the
new additions of the archwing missions, a new
boss was added to fight in space. It is known as the
J-3 Golem, a hulking infestation that appears after
completing the Jordas Precept Quest. With a new
boss usually means new enemies have been added,
to which there has been; mainly Corpus based.
With new enemies means new ways to fight them
off: Tekko, iron fists and are Atlas’ signature weapons;
Convectrix, a weapon that shoots 2 converging
lasers towards a target; Sonicor, a weapon that
creates a wave of sonic energy and blasts away
enemies; Phaedra, an automatic rifle fitted on to
the archwing and finally Kaszas, a scythe enlarged
and made specifically for the archwing.
Along with the new weapons, don’t forget to jump
in to missions with new customisation items. Two
syandanas (Cape-like attachments) have been
added which are Igaro Syandana and Opulas Robe.
The Igaro Syandana is a pair of Ceresean butterfly
wings that represents agility and the Opulas Robe,
the cape that Corpus elites wear that displays privilege
amongst the Corpus. Ships have new customisation
options too: players must craft a Landing
Craft Segment (The blueprints are available in
the market) to gain access to the Mantis and Liset
landing crafts.
