Notes

• Due to having no shields, Inaros' base health from leveling scales differently from other Warframes, having 300% more health at max rank rather than the typical 200%.
• As Inaros has no shields, any Hijack objective will drain his health instead in order to move.
  • He also cannot receive overshields. He can however gain shields from allied Shield Ospreys and Orokin Drones.
• However, there are benefits with Inaros and his lack of shields, such as:
  • The Decaying Dragon Key having no negative effect, allowing Inaros to carry it without issue.
  • The No Shields Nightmare Mode condition having no effect.
  • Cryogenic Leakage having no effect on his shields. His friction is still affected however.
  • Rage always giving energy when damage is taken.

Lore

The Orokins' tool for Phobos' subservience - Inaros, the sky king, was the savior of the original inhabitants of Phobos after the Orokin plan of control backfired. Inaros was unpleased with the Orokin's methods after seeing them first hand, and rebelled, eventually leading the slaughter of the Orokin after the victory over the sentients.

Trivia

• Inaros' has two possible namesakes, both of which are figures in ancient Egyptian history and are often confused with each other;
  • Inaros II, an ancient Egyptian ruler who rebelled against the Persians in 460 BC.
  • Inaros I, an ancient Egyptian prince who rebelled against the Assyrians in 665 BC, 200 years prior to the reign of Inaros II.
• Inaros has both the highest base health and lowest base shields of any Warframe.
• Inaros is the first Warframe to have a built-in polarity in the Exilus mod slot. An Exilus Adapter is still required to unlock the slot, but a Forma is not necessary unless changing it to another polarity.
• Unlike most other Warframes, Inaros played a direct part in defending and interacting with populations outside of the Orokin, who worshiped him as their king and protector.
• Inaros is unique in the sense that besides his blueprint, his parts are labeled as the "Protector" pieces, directly tying the blueprints to the lore itself. (eg. Protector Helmet)
• As of Update 18.6 (2016-03-16), Baro Ki'Teer has unique dialog when addressing players equipped with Inaros.
