His Prime version features increased energy capacity as well as additional polarities and more armor.

Volt Prime's base energy is normal Volt's rank 30 energy. While an additional polarity isn't big (it's just another forma) 100 armor vs 15 armor most definitely makes a difference.

Warframes should almost always be potato'd as that brings out their entire available potential. (plus trading for 20P is kinda easy.)

I recommend Volt Prime but his blueprint is extremely hard to get (nobody hosts T4Captures on PC) and you might be driven to buy it.

TL;DR Get Volt Prime if you want 600 energy capacity (rank 30 with Flow) and not to be squishy AF if you accidentally get into heavy fire.

I've never had basic Volt, but I had Trinity. 15 armor is squishy as hell.
