Build it. The Xoris is a unique glaive with infinite combo duration, making it excellent for heavy attack builds. Its main weakness is a slow flight speed for thrown attacks.
The combo counter does not tick down, but combo stacks are still consumed by heavy attacks. This duration resets when used with certain Warframe abilities and Exalted Weapons.
The Xoris is a Corpus glaive known for its high attack speed and unique infinite combo duration. This feature allows for sustained high combo counts, which is highly beneficial for heavy attack-focused playstyles.
It can be wielded with a single-handed secondary weapon. Holding the melee button throws the glaive, which can bounce and damage enemies in its path. Meleeing while it’s in flight commands it to return.
Heavy Attacks while the glaive is in mid-flight produce an 8-meter explosion, forcing the glaive to return. This explosion has no damage falloff and inflicts a guaranteed Impact and Electricity proc, though it also causes self-stagger.
How to get the Xoris
- Obtain the blueprint, core, handle, and blade during The Deadlock Protocol quest.
- Additional blueprints and parts can be bought from Cephalon Simaris for 100,000 standing for the blueprint and 15,000 standing for parts.
The Xoris is not tradable.
