That's it. I'm sick of all this "Primed Nikana" bullshit that's going on in warframe right now. Nikanas deserve much better than that. Much, much better than that.

I should know what I'm talking about. I myself commissioned a genuine nikana on Larunda Relay for 2,400,000 Platinum (that's about $20,000) and have been practicing with it for almost 2 years now. I can even cut slabs of solid oxium with my nikana.

Tenno smiths spend years working on a single niikana and fold it up to a million times to produce the finest blades known to mankind.

Nikanas are thrice as sharp as Broken Wars and thrice as hard for that matter too. Anything a Prisma Dual Cleaver can cut through, a katana can cut through better. I'm pretty sure a nikana could easily bisect a LvL 100 Corrupted Bombard with a simple vertical slash.

Ever wonder why the Orokin Empire never bothered killing the Tennos? That's right, they were too scared to fight the disciplined Tenno and their nikana of destruction. Even in Old War, sentient soldiers targeted the tennos with the nikanas first because their killing power was feared and respected.

So what am I saying? Nikanas are simply the best sword that the world has ever seen, and thus, require better stats in Warframe. Here is the stat block I propose for Nikanas:

Weapon Slot: Melee

Weapon Type: Nikana

Attack speed: 0.5

Physical damage: 300

Impact: 10

Puncture 10

Slash: 280

Crit: 120%

Crit multiplier: 8x

Status chance: 80%
