Info

  • Qorvex expends EnergyOrb75 Energy to explosively fragment out several protective concrete plates. On cast, Qorvex reels back then leaps in the air, detonating an explosion that inflicts AbilityStrengthBuff200 / 300 / 400 / 500 DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation damage with a guaranteed Status Effect and Knockdown b Knockdown to enemies in a radius of 6 meters.
  • After the explosion, Qorvex's concrete plates encircle himself and allied Warframes inside his Affinity Range. All negative status effects on Qorvex and his allied Warframes are first cleansed, then an initial number of AbilityStrengthBuff2 / 3 / 4 / 5 stacks of concrete plates surround them. Each stack lasts indefinitely until consumed by negating an incoming status effect, including Knockdown b Knockdown and self or enemy-inflicted RollingDroneAvatar Stagger.
    • Status cleanse on cast is a separate function and does not consume an initial stack.
    • Each guarded Warframe consumes stacks individually and do not reduce the stacks on other guarded Warframes.
    • Allied Warframes retain their Disometric Guard stacks when leaving Qorvex's Affinity Range, and even when Qorvex himself has zero stacks.
    • When a status effect is negated, the player's screen borders flash in a fading radioactive visual effect, while an orbiting concrete plate dissolves away.
    • Concrete plates orbiting a player visually disappear when aiming down sights with ranged weapons, and when the camera is positioned close to Qorvex's character model.
  • While Qorvex has at least 1 stack of Disometric Guard remaining, when Qorvex himself kills or assists in killing an enemy with an active DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation status effect, there is a 10% chance to add 1 stack to Qorvex and allied Warframes in his Affinity Range; for each active DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation status effect on the enemy, the stack chance increases up to a cap of 100% at 10 DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation statuses. Disometric Guard can only sustain max AbilityStrengthBuff5 / 7 / 8 / 10 stacks per player.
    • When gaining or losing stacks, concrete plates visually materialize or dissolve away, shuffling the entire orbit to occupy equal distances between plates.
    • Amount of remaining stacks are shown on the ability icon and as a buff icon beside Qorvex's hitpoints indicator.
  • Can be recast while active. If Qorvex and allied Warframes are below max stacks, recast adds initial stacks to their current stack count up to the max.
  • Ability Synergy:

Bugs

  • In the Simulacrum, stacks visually do not disappear once the modding changed via Arsenal, but the ability is deactivated as expected. Qorvex is unable to prevent status effects properly due to the lingering stacks.
  • Using transference, or being forced into operator form, may show 0 stacks when returning to the warframe. This is purely visual.
