NotesEdit
- The Venka Prime has a modified melee combo multiplier that can reach 13.0x combo at 240 consecutive hits instead of the usual 12.0x combo at 220 hits.
- Although the Venka Prime can reach 13.0x combo multiplier, mods that scale with combo multiplier, such as Blood Rush, Gladiator mods or Weeping Wounds, will stop scaling at the usual 12.0x combo multiplier.
TipsEdit
- Warframe abilities that are affected by the combo counter, such as Landslide or Whipclaw, will benefit from Venka Prime's enhanced combo multiplier.
TriviaEdit
- The Venka Prime is the first weapon to have a modified melee combo counter.
- Before the Update 26 melee changes, the Venka Prime combo multiplier scaled at 0.75x instead of 0.5x like other melee weapons. A similar version of this feature was brought back in Update 26.1 when the Venka Prime was given a cap of 13x combo multiplier instead of 12x.
- Venka Prime was announced alongside Valkyr Prime and Cernos Prime in a teaser, but when the full trailer was finally shown, Valkyr Prime was using the standard Venka instead of the Venka Prime.
BugsEdit
- Although the Venka Prime can reach 13.0x combo multiplier, mods that scale with combo multiplier, such as Blood Rush, Gladiator mods or Weeping Wounds, will stop scaling at the usual 12.0x combo multiplier.
