[2022] Garuda Prime: Update 31.3

Garuda Prime: Update 31.3

GARUDA PRIME ACCESS 

Awash in crimson and shimmering gold, Garuda Prime has emerged! Add Garuda Prime, exclusive Prime Accessories, Weapons, Boosters and more with Prime Access, or earn Relics in-game to craft Garuda Prime, Nagantaka Prime and Corvas Prime in your Foundry.

Garuda Prime and her signature Prime gear tear through the battlefield with razor-sharp talons and sanguine bloodletting. Experience Garuda’s reworked abilities and witness the queen of gore get deadlier the more blood is spilled.
 

Garuda Prime
White, gold and deepest scarlet, the queen of gore in full regalia. She also has increased Energy and Armor  stats, along with an additional Madurai slot. 

Her Talons also have increased base damage and Critical Chance stats.  

Nagantaka Prime
A golden version of Garuda’s versatile crossbow, as fashioned by the Orokin’s finest weaponsmiths. Alt-fire to let loose a barrage of bolts. All bolts have a chance to cause Bleeding, and Headshots have a chance to increase Reload Speed. When wielded by Garuda the Nagantaka gains a slight Punch Through effect.

Corvas Prime
Flaunting ceremonial beauty, this arch-gun flak-cannon is even more devastating than its standard issue counterpart.

Exclusive Garuda Prime Glyphs

Garuda Prime Accessories includes:

• Kukri Prime Armor
• Sanguinax Prime Ephemera
• 90-Day Affinity Booster
• 90-Day Resource Booster

When Garuda Prime enters Prime Access, the following items will be added to the Prime Vault. If you have Relics that contain these items they will remain in your Inventory.

• Titania Prime
• Corinth Prime
• Pangolin Prime

With this Vaulting comes the shift of the following Syndicate Sacrifices:

• Replaced Arbiters of Hexis Sacrifice of Corinth Prime Barrel to Astilla Prime Barrel 
• Replaced Arbiters of Hexis Sacrifice of Titania Prime Neuroptics to Gara Prime Chassis
• Replaced New Loka Sacrifice of Titania Prime Systems to Nezha Prime Chassis
• Replaced Steel Meridian Sacrifice of Pangolin Prime Handle to Zakti Prime Receiver 

Note on Garuda Prime Relics: We have skipped Neo N19 in Relic naming convention and went straight to Neo N20 due to chat linking issues we encountered in testing. 

If you already wield the power of these Primes or have their Relics in your Inventory, they will remain after the Vaulting.

Garuda Prime Access begins March 28 on all platforms. Don’t miss out on adding the queen of gore’s full regalia to your Arsenal! Find the Prime Access packs here: https://www.warframe.com/prime-access
