Warframe is a 3rd person shooter - RPG hybrid. All you 13 year olds think MMOs and RPGs are the same thing and don't know the difference. If it isn't a WOW clone then it isn't an RPG, right? lol. The RPG elements are still under development (ex: a trading system) but the seeds of this have been present from the beginning. If you haven't noticed this, you simply aren't paying attention.

Exclusive weapons are not enfolded into the Mastery system because the game would not allow you to have them in your inventory - thus screwing all low levels participating in events. Nice try though. They are still tweeking the system and weapons periodically get updates but this is something they are shooting for. This is precisely why many of the Corpus research guns were changed from electrical to armor ignoring damage types and given damage buffs in update 9 - to set them apart from weapons that are easier to obtain.
