Dual Zoren Prime

Build and guide

Build it as a fast crit stat stick. Thirty percent crit chance at a 3.2x multiplier with the fastest swing speed among dual swords is a real profile; the weakness is short reach and a low status chance, so it wants Blood Rush and Berserker Fury rather than a status build.

Unique trait: None

The Dual Zoren Prime, introduced in Hotfix 38.0.10, is a Prime variant of the Dual Zoren melee weapon. It requires a Mastery Rank of 13 to wield and is described as “Axes worthy of an executioner, refined to Orokin perfection.”

This weapon features a high critical multiplier of 3.2x, which is its most notable stat. However, this is paired with a low critical chance of 0.3 and a status chance of 0.22, making it challenging to build effectively for either critical or status.

As a Prime weapon, it is crafted from components found in various Void Relics, including Lith, Meso, Neo, and Axi tiers. It is not currently vaulted and is tradable among players.

How to get the Dual Zoren Prime

  1. The Dual Zoren Prime is dropping right now. Its relics are in the mission drop tables:
  2. Handle: Meso D8, Neo A16, Axi A22, Axi S20 (dropping now).
  3. Blade: Axi D6 (dropping now; the rare slot in Axi D6).
  4. Blueprint: Lith V11, Meso X1 (dropping now).
  5. Run the fissure tier that matches each relic, refine the rare part’s relic to Radiant, and pick the best of the four results with a squad.
  6. Build the parts, then the weapon: 12 hours each, or rush with platinum.

Check the Relic finder for live odds per refinement; the set price on this page is what the built set trades for on warframe.market.

The Dual Zoren Prime has a riven disposition of 0.9, which is considered low. This means that Riven mods for this weapon will have weaker stat bonuses compared to weapons with higher dispositions, making it less appealing for Riven investment.

Builds

Crit: Blood Rush and Organ Shatter on the 30 percent base and 3.2x multiplier, Berserker Fury for attack speed on kills, Condition Overload and Weeping Wounds to keep damage scaling once combo is up, Primed Reach because the blades are short.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High critical multiplier of 3.2x
  • Prime weapon aesthetics
  • Accessible through Void Relics
  • Not currently vaulted
  • Tradable components

Cons

  • Very low base critical chance (0.3)
  • Low base status chance (0.22)
  • Low riven disposition (0.9)
  • Requires significant mod investment to be viable

The Dual Zoren Prime, while aesthetically pleasing and a Prime variant, struggles with its low base critical and status chances. Despite a high critical multiplier, the effort required to make it perform at higher levels of content is substantial, especially with its low riven disposition. Players looking for a powerful melee weapon will likely find better options that require less investment to achieve similar or superior results.
