 ENERGY 100 KEY 4 |
Fighter Escort Deploys drones that fight alongside the Warframe, each detonating in a destructive blast when killed. |
Strength:2 / 4 / 6 / 8 (drones) 1000 / 1500 / 2000 / 2500 (explosion  Blast damage)
|
| Duration:15 / 20 / 25 / 30 s | |||
| Range:60 / 100 / 120 / 160 m (explosion radius) 80 m (beam range) |
- In Archwing missions, the Itzal launches 2 / 4 / 6 / 8 Locust Drones that independently attack enemies within a range of 80 meters using lasers that deal continuous
Electricity damage. These drones will disappear after 15 / 20 / 25 / 30 seconds. If a drone is destroyed by enemy fire or detonates after the ability's duration expires, it will deal 1000 / 1500 / 2000 / 2500 
Blast damage within a radius of 60 / 100 / 120 / 160 meters.
- In Landscape missions, the range of this ability is reduced down to 8 meters of beam range and 6 / 10 / 12 / 16 meters of detonation radius.
- Number of drones, beam damage (pending confirmation), and explosion damage are affected by Ability Strength.
- Explosion damage does not bypass obstacles in the environment and decreases with distance.
- Electricity damage is effective against Machinery and Robotics but less effective against Alloy Armor.
Electricity status effect chains 50% of Fighter Escort's base damage to surrounding enemies in a small area of effect. Shocked enemies will also be briefly stunned.- Blast damage is effective against Machinery and Fossilized, but less effective against Ferrite Armor and Infested Sinew.
- Blast status effect forces all enemies within a 5 meter radius to stumble and fall.
- Drone duration is affected by Ability Duration.
- Explosion radius is affected by Ability Range.
- Drones require line-of-sight for targeting acquisition.
- Drones will not be transported by Blink, will not open fire while under the effects of Penumbra, and will not attack during a sprint.
- Cannot be recast while active.
- The drones can distract enemies trying to attack you, drawing fire away from you (giving your shields time to regenerate) and dealing a little extra damage. Whilst they are fairly easily destroyed they are also small and agile, which means enemies without beam weapons will have a hard time hitting them.
- Whilst ineffective against high-level enemies, the drones can easily destroy lower-level targets by focusing their fire.
