A solution to people who want Excalibur Prime

[Brian]

So I've been poking around at forums and finding that a lot of people want Excalibur Prime and people who bought the founders pack don't want it to go live again because they bought it and it's supose to be an exclusive item. Which is understandable. I came up with an idea of Wraith Excalibur, Vandal Excalibur, and Prisma Excalibur. (People who have Excalibur Prime can still get this.) What's different is that each of the Variants specializes in one stat.

Wraith Excalibur would have more Health and Shield
Vandal Excalibur would have more Stamina and Sprint Speed
Prisma Excalibur would have more Power and Armor

and a bit changes to Prime Excalibur that he would get a minor buff in all stats.

Let me know what you think of this idea and do you mind if these versions of Excalibur would get released. Also what stats would you change?

No because even with Excalibur Wraith, Vandal, and Prisma people still will want Prime. They will never get Prime so they whine and make crazy suggestions that solve nothing.

DE said multiple times, that Excalibur Prime, nor any of other special "prime wannabe" variations won't be ever released. They sold Founder packs with this assurance, and if they ever go against their word - they will be facing the law. And that's the last thing they want.

There's also this solution... tough ♥♥♥♥.

It's kinda baffling the amount of people that won't manage to grasp the concept of "time limited sale", since that's all Excalibur prime was, it's done, you didn't get it, deal with it.

Of course a lot of people want Excalibur Prime. It's in human nature to want the unavailable. That doesn't mean it should be made available. If only for the reason that DE gave a promise to make it a real exclusive, not just a timed one.

I don't have founder status, either. To be honest, I'm not missing it. The only thing I would really have access to is Council chat. That's not worth buying Prime Access, though in my opinion. If there's anything I'd like to see is people with very high Mastery Rank getting access to it - even if it was just without posting rights and just to read it.

Well, you can access it now. DE picks 30 new members each month, depending on their forum contribution and overall helpfulness. I won't be able to get in, I'm afraid, I'm just too... shy for official forums.

Yeah, official forums... no. I went there about two years ago for a while and the general mood there pretty much drove me away.

A shame they abandoned the Steam forums, though.

edit: besides, I'm not helping here to get anything out of it. ^^

He's one of the players who bought the founder's pack! Get hiiiiiim! (Just joking)
Still, maybe octoknight is right. People want the Prime version of excal. I don't really want it so much, but if someone could convince DE to make it available to all players then it would be cool.

If someone could convince DE to make Prime aviable again, he might've as well convinced them to just give all their money to random strangers, strip naked and run around on the streets for some time.
Because that what DE would essentially be doing with release of the Excalibur Prime. Ruining the reputation of their company and be obliged to refund all of the founder packs.

It was just a suggestion lol. I didn't realize how much hate I would recieve for this. Also I really didn't care for Excalibur Prime I thought it was cool to have a new variant beside primes. I thought it would be nice to have a Grineer based warframe or a Corpus one. Apparently not

[Fenragus the Brambus]

Why did you think they would re-release Excal in the first place then

You got me wrong I never said to re release Excal prime. I just wanted to a new Variant of Warframes

I feel a little bit offended by your post. Try to use less drastic words next time. I was just voicing an opinion.

Oh no offended...how in the world can you be offended by what he said? He hits the nail right on the head....

All I was aiming for is to knock two birds with one stone. Find a solution for people who want Excal Prime. It might not be Excal prime but it's the next best thing right? (Ima get so much hate for this.) Also introducing a Warframes that are made by Grineer or Corpus. Wouldn't that be cool a Warframe made from Grineers or Corpus because one of the bosses successfully secured Orokin Gear? I mean they can make a whole story line on this. Also i thought it would be nice to give it to Excalibur, because I mean Excalibur is one of the begining Warframe. He was one of the reason why i got started into Warframe. So that's my reasoning behind this.

Also if you have nothing to say but insults please don't post. It's rude and annoying; also remeber this is just a suggestion I want to hear your opinon not your insults.

Yes, absolutely. Any Warframe can become Primed and any warframe can become Corpus/Grineer modified, even from the lore perspective. Any, except Excalibur, because of the whole situation DE placed him in, making any of his special versions go directly against their word and the law.

Granted, it's entirely DE's fault for doing so - but what's done cannot be undone. I'm afraid, we will never see any versions of Excalibur, except standard one and Proto Skin (nod to their previous game, Dark Sector)

Also Phantom. I'm not sure how you can be offended by my comment, as I had no intention to do so. I am sorry that you got offended, however I'm not sorry for what I said, because it wasn't offensive in any way.
