How to prepare for Lavos Prime

If you want Lavos Prime right as he drops, whether you’re a free-to-play player or a premium 💃buyer, here’🍨s what you’ll need to know.

For the free-to-play route, you’ll either want to scrounge up a few hundred Platinum from trading if you want to buy his parts from other players. Otherwise, what you can💜 do now is stock up on Syndicate medallions and Standing with꧂ other neutral Syndicates (Cetus, Fortuna, Deimos). 

Once you have a bunch of Standing with Synd✱icates, you can then buy a bunch of packs in hopes of getting the new Relics th🍷at have Lavos Prime and his weapon parts.

For players who want to buy Lavos Prime outright, you can buy his Prime Access for USD 79.99, the Accessories Pack for USD 59.99, or the whole bundle for USD 138.9🧸9.

Will Lavos Prime be worth it?

While Lavos himsꦫelf is not a top-t🌌ier Warframe, his elemental kit primes enemies easily, being great for elemental damage builds that utilize Condition Overload and Galvanized mods.

His survivability is also very strong, with great syne✨rgy using pet builds and crowd-control effects. He isn’t a nuking fram⭕e, but he can still hold his own.

If you want a non-meta frame with different setups, then he will be worth it. If you’re chasing the meta, you may want to reconsider.
