I am just gonna say this because I feel it has to be said: this gun should've been primed when Volt Prime was released.

I'm sure many will disagree with that. Most with something of "it's a Corpus weapon only Tenno weapons get primed" but this is just not the case as I see it. Braton and Burston before there was any prime (besides Excalibur) released were Corpus reproductions of the original Orokin weapons. Dera is likely a Corpus reproduction as well.

Others may say something like "Orokin weapons are only old style (solid ammo, bows, melee weapons)" but this also can't be right. The towers use both lasers for traps and plasma weaponry on their defense turrets. Wyrm Prime's default weapon the "laser (actually plasma) rifle" is essentially the same projectile as the turrets. There has to have at one time in the story been plasma rifles used by the Orokin empire. Therefore, there must have been an original Orokin Dera. Dera Prime.
