Patch History[]
Hotfix 32.2.5 (2022-12-14)
- Fixed the Akbolto Prime’s projectiles not inheriting emissive colors.
Update 32.2 (2022-11-30)
- SEMI-AUTOMATIC WEAPON CHANGES
While reviewing the stats of some weapons with a semi-automatic mode, we noticed that certain weapons had an unsustainably high fire rate for most players. We adjusted the stats of the following semi-automatic weapons whose maximum potential was only being reached with the use of macros (to learn more about third-party use in Warframe visit our support article). Since not everyone is an avid macro user (within the boundaries allowed), we lowered fire rates to a more humanly achievable level and improved their damage or reload stats to compensate.
Akbolto Prime
- Reduced fire rate from 7 to 5.
- Increased damage from 32 to 44.
Update 22.7 (2017-12-12)
- Introduced.
