LAVOS PRIME

Some Warframes were Prime from the start. Others ascended. Lavos, the master of transmutation, bowed to no one as he forged his own path to valor.

Lavos is a tanky elemental alchemist who cycles all four of his own abilities off individual cooldowns instead of babysitting energy, using Vial Rush to dash and freeze, Ophidian Bite to self-heal, and Catalyze to stack elemental procs into a squad-wide status nuke. He plays as a durable, self-sufficient status caster who also buffs the team's ammo and orbs, with Valence Formation letting his gunplay ride the same elements his abilities are already applying.
