The Tenora is the signature assault rifle of the Octavia Warframe, which features two different firing modes: a standard full-auto fire mode that increases fire rate and accuracy the longer it shoots, and an Alternate Fire mode that fires a single powerful, charged shot.

Characteristics
This weapon deals primarily Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage.
Advantages:
- High Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage – effective against armor.
- Primary fire has near-equal physical damage distribution – effective against all factions, Sentient fighters and Shadow Stalker.

- Alt-fire has the highest critical chance and damage multiplier of all charge-up rifles.
- Primary fire has good status chance.
- Primary fire's rate of fire and accuracy increase as the trigger is held, with near-perfect accuracy once spool-up is complete.
- Alt-fire has fairly short charge time compared to other charging weapons.
- Alt-fire's charge is automatic and does not need to be held down.
- Alt-fire has pinpoint accuracy.
- Alt-fire has innate 1 meter Punch Through.
- High magazine size.
- High reserve ammo pool.
Disadvantages:
- Low base damage; reliant on its good critical damage potential.

- Alt-fire uses 10 ammo per shot.

- Alt-fire has low status chance.
- Poor ammo efficiency.
- Slow reload speed.
Notes
- Tenora's charge shot deals 24 damage for every 1 ammo consumed (a total of 240 damage with a max consumption of 10 ammo) per shot. This is of equal ammo efficiency to its primary fire.
Trivia
- Tenora is the Catalan word for Tenor, one of the highest classical male singing voices.
- Tenora may also be a reference to a type of Catalan Shawm, an oboe-like woodwind instrument typically used in Catalonia.
- While there are other weapons with spool-up time, like the Soma and Gorgon series, its accuracy being increased the longer the trigger is held is currently unique to the Tenora.
Bugs
