Limbo as a [https://warframebase.com/ Warframe crafting Guide|https://warframebase.com/] came out just under four years ago (44 months to be exact), and he wasn’t the most popular because his abilities could be detrimental to a team if not done properly. Fortunately, he had gotten better last year, and it only seems fit that he should be the next on the list to receive a Prime. Based on the scheduling, it could have easily been Chroma or Mesa, or someone a little further down the pipeline, but considering those two are already overly appealing, it might be better to give Limbo some love.

Oddly enough, the Prime version is nearly 10% slower than the standard Destreza, and damages 20% less in Puncture. Fortunately, everything else is boosted, with a higher critical chance and multiplier, along with the remaining attack values raising ever so slightly, and the status effect chance up over 3x what it originally was. It’s definitely a solid critical-centric weapon, and with the boost of status it should help it go further, but really, it’s nowhere near the level of weapons such as the Atterax which have a much wider spread of damage, which can bring entire rooms to their knees.

Pyrana Prime is arguably one of the best sidearms in the game. If there’s a good combo out there, it has to be a short ranged weapon, such as the Tigris shotgun, alongside an automatic rifle or submachine gun, such as the Akstiletto. That combo in particular worked amazing for myself, until I recently switched to the Supra Vandal assault rifle, which makes the Pyrana Prime the perfect sidearm. Not only does it have a widespread of so many pellets, but it’s essentially an automatic, as holding down the left mouse button will blow through a horde of enemies in a matter of seconds. Like the many other Prime weapons, there are some advantages and disadvantages when compared to its standard version. The biggest, and really only two disadvantages to the Pyrana Prime is that it deals less damage and has a slower fire rate. This is fortunately made up with a higher accuracy, crit chance/multiplier, magazine size, and status chance. In addition, the reload speed is 20% quicker and most importantly, the damage fallout is much wider, with a larger spread. It also comes in the all too familiar black and white color scheme, along with the gold trim. When using an assault rifle, this immediately gets assigned to the secondary slot.

Like every Prime update, there comes not only an enhanced Warframe, but a side of new weapons, and this update is a doozy. Alongside the agile Limbo comes the devastating Pyrana Prime, which packs one heck of a punch in a small package, and Destreza Prime, allowing for nimbler battles.
