Notes[]

Ash Prime, compared to Ash:
- Higher Shields (365/465 vs. 270/370)
- Higher Armor (185 vs. 105)
- Higher Sprint Speed (1.2 vs. 1.15)
- Different Polarities ( vs. )
As with any other Prime Warframe, moving close to the location of an Orokin Void Death Orb will restore a pulse of 250 Energy to nearby allies, even if that Death Orb is inactive, destroyed, or non-present. This effect can only occur once per orb.
Ash Prime possesses two Appearance Auxiliary Attachments that make him more visible to players during his Invisible ability Smoke Screen: Semi-Cloak, which makes the Warframe semi-transparent; and Glow-Cloak, which produces an opaque glow. These appearances are affected by primary energy color and do not alter how enemies perceive the player.

Trivia[]

Ash Prime's helmet could be loosely based on the traditional Kabuto Samurai helmet and shows certain aspects of other Samurai Helmets like the oversized chin guard.
The ponytail on the Ash Prime helmet is somewhat reminiscent of the ponytail in Ash's original concept art.
- This "ponytail" was originally intended to be included in his final design, however, cloth physics at the time did not permit it.
In the Codex, Ash Prime's arm blades are mounted underneath the wrist; in-game, however, the blades are positioned above his wrists much like the normal Ash.
Ash Prime's ability features are energy ribbons that emerge from Ash Prime when he appears out of Smoke Screen and when he reaches his destination from Teleport.
Ash Prime has Orokin writing on his torso that says "Tenno Model 24N - Serial 147H".
Ash Prime's Arsenal image shows him holding the Vectis Prime as a lefty. Although this may be unintentional, it could hint to Ash Prime being ambidextrous, hence why he is equally efficient with both arm blades.
A fully built Ash Prime was given for watching TennoCon 2018 on WARFRAME's Twitch with a Twitch-linked account for 30 consecutive minutes, or were in attendance to TennoCon 2018, on July 7th, 2018.^[1]
- Due to server issues that prevented players from watching the livestream, DE gave away a free Ash Prime to anybody with a Twitch-linked account who logged into WARFRAME between July 3rd and July 10th, 2018.^[2]
