Gauss/Main

"Charging his abilities with every step, he's streamlined for speed. This is Gauss, the runner, the rapid.

If the battle seems out of control, Tenno, you're not going fast enough."

- Lotus

"Gauss. Front edge: smooth heat-resistant composites. Trailing edges: streamlined, foiled, this particular one vaguely warped by extreme heat stress.

The Saint of Altra. If the mind wanders, what do you see?

I see a vivid Lord-like Festival, the tremor mines bursting in a blinding wave, rising toward Altra. And Gauss - a smear of light, just ahead of the thermal avalance - fast as fire. No... faster."

- Drusus

Engines ready for ignition. Coolant circulation systems online. Revved into kinetic overdrive, the speedster Gauss leaves his competition amidst the dust. Accelerate and race across vast landscapes or seas. Recharge power from hostile strikes and reduce the force of their impact. Flash-freeze enemies dead in their tracks, then spontaneously combust his foes, as he paves the path to a swift victory. Gauss kickstarted in : Saint of Altra.

Trivia

 * Gauss is named after Carl Friedrich Gauss, the German mathematician and physicist who made significant contributions to many fields in mathematics and sciences. Most notably in Electromagnetism, Differential Geometry, Algebra, and Statistics.
 * The term Redline is an automotive term that refers to the maximum revolutions-per-minute (RPM) that an engine is designed to withstand without damaging its own components. It can also be used as a verb to refer to running an engine at or beyond its maximum safe RPM (e.g. "to redline").
 * The name of Gauss Mag Helmet, his alternate helmet, is a reverse of one of 's alternate helmets, Mag Gauss Helmet.
 * Gauss is the 41st Warframe to be released (excluding Primed and Umbra variants).
 * Unlike several other Warframes that require exclusive resources from only one of the Landscapes, Gauss' Chassis and Systems require resources from Plains of Eidolon and Orb Vallis, respectively.
 * Gauss is the first Warframe whose component blueprints are acquired from Disruption.
 * Gauss possesses the fastest sprinting speed of all Warframes in the game with a value of 1.4. This replaces / who has a sprint speed of 1.25.
 * Gauss was planned to be released alongsides Grendel, who is said to be his best friend, but DE made the decision to release Grendel later.
