Notes[]
- Nidus Prime, compared to Nidus:
- 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.
- Nidus Prime's appearance changes as he accumulates Mutation Stacks:
- At 3 stacks, black tendrils form on the left side of his face, as well as his entire left arm.
- At 5 stacks, the tendrils extend to cover his chest and back.
- At 7 stacks, the right side of his fleshy body becomes covered in a black mass, as the golden metallic spikes on his right arm protrude outward, while tendrils form on his lower body.
- At 10 stacks, the tendrils extend to cover his entire face and thighs.
- Virulence, Larva, Ravenous' Maggots and its Infested nests have unique models of Orokin design, appearing twisted and overtaken by Nidus' Infestation.
- Maggot Prime visually resembles Excalibur Prime's default helmet.
Trivia[]
- Nidus Prime was revealed during TennoCon 2021 on 17th July 2021. Players in the TennoCon Relay were granted an up-close look of his in-game model.
- Nidus Prime's concept art was illustrated by Mike Brennan, the original designer of Nidus.
- Nidus Prime is the ninth Primed Warframe whose non-Primed variant was unlockable through a quest (The Glast Gambit), after Gara, Octavia, Inaros, Titania, Atlas, Chroma, Limbo, and Mirage.
- When Nidus Prime becomes invisible, his transparent silhouette will be in fully mutated form, regardless of current mutation stack.
