Prime resurgence is a less predatory version of prime vault. It allows free players easier and more precise access to unvaulted items, including armor and accessories that were previously impossible to get as a free player.

See the price drop for Glaive Prime today. Dropped off a cliff because its unvaulted.

Huh? I thought vaulting wasn't a thing anymore since they removed all FOMO mechanics? What an absolute troll.

You're confusing me with someone else. Havent talked about FOMO in warframe with you.

FOMO in warframe is events like the just finished Jade Shadows, one offs like Scarlet Spear or the (very) infrequently run Plague Star.

We are in agreement about DE uses Dark Patterns, you're just more jaded than I am. Calling it p2w though is a stretch IMO.

I'm not confusing you, you're replying to the comment chain where we are talking about FOMO mechanics being removed. You were literally adding to that discussion.
