LEX PRIME IS NOW META | WWYU | Warframe

[@horcelzinho]

glad that the lex is finally back as a viable war crime

[@Kelticknott]

If the Nataruk fires tree trunks down hallways, the Lex-carnon fires cement slabs

[@Sypitz]

DE: we are nerfing AoE explosive weapons as they reduce the difficulty of the game Also DE: *what if we made every incarnon mode have explosives?*

[@MidMan98]

Basically turn every weapon into a 40k Bolter

[@Zachpi]

I think the balance concept is that you can't just stand still and spam it like the launch version of the bramma, you have to actually aim and shoot a little bit, but I feel they may have slightly overshot the power level lmao

[@jouuie9822]

but some aoe weapons were pretty much allowing you to play the game with your brain shut off (bramma/kuva zarr) with incarnon weapons, you have to actually play the game and aim properly to activate incarnon mode

[@oneedgyboi606]

They nerfed aoe weapons because you just completely shut your brain off and fire the Kuva Ogris at your feet. It's not because they made the game easy. The game is still easy. This has been explained many times.

[@megagrowlithe]

@@jouuie9822 Meanwhile there's still an explosive weapon that lets you play with your brain completely turned off. But don't tell DE! ;)!

[@brightfox5040]

The lex prime was my first prime I crafted when I started playing and to see it shine…it’s…so beautiful, so many *war crimes* it brings a tear to my eye

[@singletona082]

I'ts beautiful. I'ts... so Beautiful. *KILL WITH IT!*

[@Malkavon]

Aah, you were at my side, all along. My true mentor... My guiding handcannon...

[@strangedaysahead4259]

From Babby Excal's first prime to the Gravitational Beam Eamitter from Blame! Absolutely loving these incarnon forms!

[@HeartlezzNobody]

Holy crap.. someone else thought of it as that weapon too. Respect.

[@alexsquall4135]

WE ARE SO BACK, LEXBROS

[@Darthmufin]

Crazy times we live in where Lex is viable again

[@AlbinosaurusR3X]

Even crazier how a hand-held, head-shotting, sniper cannon turned into hallway-clearing bazooka.

[@Fixti0n]

When it first came out, it instantly got the spot as my default side arm, and there he was until the Kuva Nukor came around. Its good to have my good old friend back.

[@Ezekku]

A WWYU about the Lex being good, this is a blessed timeline on Eternalism

[@topcat69er]

The Lex Prime was my very first Prime weapon a very long time ago. I stopped playing years ago buts stay subbed to Brozime. This makes me want to reinstall the game!

[@youraveragechroma2139]

I guess the Lex won the “Lex vs marelok” in the end!

[@JasonNukeLegend]

DE: We nerfed Catchmoon Also DE:

[@echomaster1242]

My only problem with the Incarnon Lex Prime is that you can’t do the same for the Aklex

[@brutus_salazaar]

Epitome of "Oh No! Anyway.... Best bit though that had me guffawing was the "Who Touched Sasha" quotable. Well done sir, made my Monday

[@Grimphoenix6969]

Quick comment, reload speed increases incarnon transform speed, so that talent basically says "if you can transform in 1 clip transform instantly" I would personally call it the best choice for an incarnon focused build

[@tako5018]

for 6 forma if u tweak some things u can fit lethal momentum in the exilus for more projectile velocity

[@glass9281]

Big fan of these incarnons of old guns just being a weekly look into what caliber of fuck off is this chambered in now

[@Baehellet]

When I saw that option on rotation I immediately took it as my tier 5 reward purely on the dream of the incarnon being amazing.

[@Rockman1159]

So glad to see the Lex performing again.

[@flutt1256]

Damn, I'm glad that the weapon that carried me as a newbie finally packs a punch once again!

[@alext5993]

Finally, a worthy opponent for the MIGHTY SEER

[@csbr75]

You're not him! Why do you use his words??

[@shib5267]

idk why but the one chatter trying to find the receipts of someone saying it's mid in chat is so funny to me

[@valeon7303]

The lex has always had a spot in my heart because of its beefy sound, managable recoil but it has nice kick to it. Now it can just CRUSH things

[@Avalvnche]

Its like 2014 and 2018 nostalgia at the same time. "What if we brought back Catchmoon pre-nerf but better?"

[@MajorBraumstrong]

Personally I swapped out Hemorrhage for Galvanized Crosshairs, since I've found that on shorter SP runs it demolishes both accolytes (two taps) and normal enemies with its guaranteed red crits (also 34.8% chance for 4th tier crit), and for longer runs where bypassing armor would be useful, I'd generally just bring some armor strip anyway. Still keeping the Hemorrhage build on one of the configs, since I guess if I were to attempt a longer SP Circuit, I'd want the bleed in case I don't get any stripping ability.

[@NeuralSensei]

Something is weird with the first perk choice they should both be +20 damage but it seems to apply a flat 20 more after mods for the trusty sidearm (60% effi with channeled ability)

[@AGrumpyPanda]

The +20 is to base damage, which will then be affected by mods, so your end result will be more than +20.

[@kevinlopezobrien5366]

Watching our good ol' boy Lex Prime go from satisfying thumper of a gun to true obscenity is so satisfying.

[@keenmans]

If you told me last year the meta would be running somthing like the Boltor Prime, Lex Prime and Ceramic dagger, I would've laughed at that.

[@dsaman123]

Lex my beloved

[@KroneDev]

Been on break from warframe for awhile, once you've unlocked the incarnon form of one of these weapons, do you keep it for good? Or is it just for the week?

[@owensparks5013]

For good. There's also talk of the adaptors being removable later so you can swap between versions, eg normal, prime, wraith etc.

[@VampireQueen375]

Return of the king.

[@VampireQueen375]

Getting my comment liked is way better than having my chat read on twitch.

[@NUGGet-3562]

Holy frick, that looks insane. Can't wait to see what the Boltor does!

[@itar10n]

Not to send you off channel, but Tactical Potato has Boltor Prime's Incarnon on display.

[@senounatsuru6453]

SHOTGUN GO BRRRRRRRT

[@earthnugs]

Damn, kinda regret picking the Bronco over this. Incarnon form is like a supercharged pre-nerf Catchmoon and looks damn satisfying.

[@DaShikuXI]

I love how some of these weapons get boosted to meta levels, and then others just get nothing. Really wonder why there is so much disparity between the incarnons.

[@blacksunserpent]

Because DE have no idea what "balance" means and will remain until warframe end of days.

[@owendawg1]

What weapons specifically? I think all of the guns so far have been excellent, not necessarily all to the same degree, but all very very strong. Really the only weaker options seem to be the melee, which is more reflective of the state of melee as a whole imo.

[@oneedgyboi606]

​​@@owendawg1 all the guns are good, all the melees are literally worthless. Even without the state of melee as a whole, they just aren't even amazing melee weapons.

[@hatman3445]

​@@oneedgyboi606 Melee aren't close to worthless. All of them are pretty strong and great on steel path. The only downside is that they can't keep up whenever people decide to stay til enemies are 1000+ levels.

[@the_nameless9519]

Gorgon

[@Wooskii1]

Awesome! I've been looking for a good Lex Incarnon video for about an hour, and yours just drops. Keep it up! Edit- I'm gonna definitely get the Lex, I already have the Strun so I'll take a matching secondary 😁

[@Vaedrath]

laetum is VERY good, but it simply doesn't have the room clear that lex does. laetum is good for level cap and lex is good for literally everything else, plus you can use arcane avenger with lex

[@Vaedrath]

@@Daniel01101101 yeah suppose you're right on that but felarx/ kuva hek once a week isn't such a huge deal when you'll be doing normal missions 95% of the time

[@LeeLonnieLove]

You can use avenger with the laetum too

[@lukaasadorian5824]

So I fired this into a zephyr tornado and I'm pretty sure I'm going to prison

[@ChristopherSadlowski]

Too bad the Incarnon don't also include variants like the Aklex. I mean, it's no big deal, I can just build a new Lex Prime or Bronco Prime. At the end of the day DE did a great job looking at these old weapons and figuring out a way to bring them back to the front for the players who want to still use them.

[@Malurth]

dang, kinda regret picking Boltor/Bronco this week. haven't tried the bronco out yet tho, here's hoping that's dope.

[@ThePopeOfAwesomeness]

I love it. It's like an unmodded MIGHTY SEER

[@RedbeardTheTired]

Lex, Boltor, Glaive Prime are meta... Is it 2014 again?

[@silhouette2116]

The Old way returns

[@Smokyz79]

Ive always loved the dome shot Lex, this incarn made all my nerd parts very stiff. Ty Brozime

[@coldfries8976]

It's been 9 months already... wow. How time flies. Good times, i miss the Incarnon excitement :(

[@Dystinction1]

Lex is a weapon that defined Warframe and I adore this.

[@Droghan]

Brozime casts bullet

[@lokeranerup5834]

can't believe we're back at the times when Lex is good haha

[@longps9528]

Now I regret fusing my 2 Lexes together

[@sasson10]

Well then, maybe I had some sort of vision that led to the Lex Prime being my only secondary (aside from the hikou)

[@shadows1987]

how do you feel about using galvanized crosshairs on it? that was kinda my first instinct and it does pretty well in SP circuit

[@DerdOn0ner]

Finally, Warframe‘s deagle is back

[@xRiizo]

As someone who is having trouble getting past the first stage on steelpath duviri.. You wouldn't happen to have any tips... These incarnon guns looks so fun!

[@majesticfalcon6402]

idk if you already have, but levelling your intrinsics through non-SP duviri and having enough SP-viable weapons and frames is super important (so that you can take your build in, as opposed to the mid-tier default builds). the devs said that SP circuit was balanced around having your duviri intrinsics really high, and around you taking your own high level builds into it

[@mikael100100]

Finally, my favorite Punch-a-hole-in-the-universe's-fabric is back in full force, baby !!

[@DestructiconSC]

Awesome video. I am curious of one detail though, something which hasn't been explained anywhere. Does, installing an incarnon genesis on a weapon reset the weapon's forma? As in, if I have an already built weapon, with forma, orokin catalyst etc, will the genesis reset those or are they kept?

[@sangheili3436]

Nope those are all kept and nothing is reset, it's just an extra upgrade path available to the gun now.

[@ariaangela3455]

I for one praise the return of old catchmoon

[@Deadsnake989]

Ah yes, my favorite Warcrime is back. Hand crafted by Tenno smiths, and chambered in find out.

[@hawaiian_doctor]

I really wish it worked for the aklex. I doubt it would make much of a difference but i just think having 2 lexes looks cool

[@haryjackazzgaming1813]

Wow this is basically my rivened hemorrhage catchmoon but waay more damage. I like that they are revisiting old weapons

[@pearson674]

i knew it was gonna be this good. the weapon is so bad as just a bullet weapon the only thing they could do was make it insane

[@Gnurklesquimp2]

I kinda dream of a WF where single-target weapons are balanced with multi-target ones, in as many situations as reasonably possible... I didn't mean that they should just give us the Plasmor 5.0 and pretend it's a Lex, but I guess it does work. It's not like I don't already whip out my gunblade when there's someone I want extra dead, but these weapons are seemingly making that kinda niche. I guess just make the tough units tougher and buff weapons (And firing modes) proportionate to how badly they deal with crowds + how much more help they need single-target?

[@AklyonX]

Not just Lex But Slightly Better, Lex Prime coming back as Lex Primest.

[@permeus2nd]

4:51 i think this week is the hardest week as there is really good choices, the 2 weeks before there was 1 that was like no this is the right option to pick anything else is wrong but this week there is a few good picks

[@rebelblade7159]

And I just happen to have a Riven for the Lex as well as a number of other weapons that have incarnon adapter like the Burston, Despair and Torid. Hope the Torid becomes OP

[@635574]

That catchmoon power is back

[@Eleglas]

Lex Prime was my first ever prime item and I loved it. Now I get to blow the dust off of it and show it a real good time again.

[@TylerStupid]

@11:50 Brozimes face of approval 🤣🤣

[@SPACE_BOOOOOST]

This is all very exciting, too bad I can finish maybe 1 in 4 SP Circuit runs because the same game-breaking bugs we had at launch still plague the mode.

[@kingkino2116]

I dont see how the other option "ammo efficiency on channel" is unlikely, considering Gloom exists, every exalted weapon exists etc. That, +10 mag and amalgam furax body count completely face-lift the weapon even without incarnon form.

[@JetComboSupreme]

When i saw those stats I shouted and everyone looked at me. A moment's shame will be dwarfed by a lifetime of guilt for the crimes I will commit with this weapon.

[@nitto420s]

Question so why not carnis Stinger over hemorrhage there is no when or if for it to work and you get more status?

[@johngaynor4363]

It's so nice to see wwyu coming back.

[@ngngye]

I really like how the handcannon I picked up for my second secondary ever is viable in endgame. Also, didn't see the mod setup is this the rivenless variant? Meaning it'd be even better with one?

[@pixjpg]

i don’t think brozime really uses rivne’s a lot, i think he doesn’t like the idea of them and how they’re all rng

[@chief5861]

@@pixjpg He will use Rivens for his personal builds if he happens to have one, but never uses them for build videos due to them being unreplicable. He wants to make a build that anyone with the mods can make, with no BS RNG in the way.

[@senounatsuru6453]

It's dumb with a good riven. I have +CC +Multishot +Status +recoil riven. PRETTY consistent on red crits.

[@ivoesteves4814]

So who's with me ,I'm going to call my Lex "Lex Luthor" since the gun has seen what the enemies can do and its now choosing violence!

[@thebestthebestthebestthebe5249]

I hope Warframe gets some aspect of modding so you can replace things like the Lex Prime incarnon and Arca Plasmor projectiles with literal Freight Trains

[@xNeoNxCyaN]

I was actually not expecting to be able to get my hands on the icnarnon weapons but tbh, steel path duviri isn’t that bad I’m only 1 level away from being able to unlock my lex, and I’m also looking forward to getting my hands on the soma in 2 weeks

[@irishkorean3479]

Now if only this was usable on Aklex...

[@kajita2048]

So we literally get new meta weapons every week 😂 Good thing is, they hopefully don’t nerf them, since there are tons of OP weapons coming atm
