CODEX

Primal. Insatiable. Grendel Prime devours all who oppose him.

We are losing this war, you say. You whisper that my Warframes are too genteel. Very well. Away with chivalry. Let us have monsters.

The law of club and belly, hunger and smoke. Beasts of cave and glut. I spread for you a cannibal feast. A toast, to the valor of mere appetite! You tremble! But the drool is on your chins.

For you birthed him, in all his innocent obscenity. This... is what you ordered. Grendel.

—Ballas

Release Date: October 18th, 2023

Notes

• Grendel Prime, compared to  Grendel:
  • Higher Armor (400 vs. 370)
  • Higher Energy (200/250 vs. 190/240)
  • Higher Starting Energy (115 vs. 100)
  • Additional polarity ( vs. )
• When Grendel Prime wields his signature  Masseter/ Masseter Prime, he will become immune to crowd-control effects while performing Heavy Attacks.
• 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.

Trivia

• Grendel Prime is the twelfth Primed Warframe to have Signature Weapons, after  Wisp Prime,  Hildryn Prime,  Baruuk Prime,  Revenant Prime,  Khora Prime,  Garuda Prime,  Harrow Prime,  Gara Prime,  Octavia Prime,  Atlas Prime, and  Banshee Prime.
• In his Prime Access trailer there are red suited Corpus wielding Flux Rifles, though no such enemy exists in game.
