I missed a week, but I’m back with another (bi)weekly warframe thread! Last time we discussed Rhino, an “unofficial” 4th starter, so this week I thought to bring a warframe that actually used to BE a starter - Loki!

Release date: 2012-10-25

Abilities:
Decoy - Loki deploys a holographic copy of himself, drawing enemy fire.
Invisibility - Loki camouflages himself, becoming invisible to enemies.
Switch Teleport - Loki instantaneously swaps positions with a target, confusing the enemy.
Radial Disarm - Lets forth a wave of energy, disrupting the projectile weapons of enemies in range and forcing them to revert to melee combat.

Acquisition: Blueprint purchasable from the market, components drop from Hyena Pack on Psamathe, Neptune.

    Loki is actually the warframe I started the game with! I had no idea how to use him properly at the start, but once I figured him out he was a powerhouse! Radial Disarm was what allowed me and my friend to go well beyond what out gear should allow us to handle in Tier 3 Void Keys! It’s funny how far the mighty has fallen, with Loki nowadays being relegated to Switch Teleporting moving objectives to get them to their destination faster as his only job.
    Invisibility and Radial Disarm are still really good abilities, just that other frames can do both things better (cough Octavia cough). Switch Teleport has it’s niche gimmick but outside of it, it’s completely useless. And Decoy really ought to not have limited hitpoints, it’s a holdover from ye old days that should have been removed long ago.
