Trivia
- The Nikana Prime was originally released in July 2015 on the Chinese build of Warframe, along with Excalibur Umbra Prime and Spira Prime. The Specters of the Rail update made the Nikana Prime and the Spira Prime obtainable by non-Founders.
- The Nikana Prime was unintentionally leaked in the Codex following Hotfix 18.4.7 (2016-02-04).
- When equipped with the Conclave Nikana Skin, the strip of cloth remains visible, but is moved to the base of the hilt.
- As of Update: Specters of the Rail 0.0 (2016-07-08), the default cloth ornament at the end of the hilt is considered a Sugatra and detachable in favor of another. However, there is no current option to have no Sugatra equipped.
- The Nikana Prime makes use of Nikana Riven mods and not Dragon Nikana Riven mods, and because the Dragon Nikana has a much higher riven disposition it can generate such mods with higher stats than the Prime variant.
