The enforcer, the gunslinger, the ultimate DAKKA frame - Mesa!
Release date: 2014-11-27
Passive: Mesa has improved proficiency with secondary weapons, and gains a health bonus at the expense of not having a melee weapon equipped.
Ballistic Battery - When activated, this power stores damage caused by guns. When triggered again, that damage is channeled through the next gunshot.
Shooting Gallery - Gives an ally extra damage while jamming the guns of nearby enemies. This power shifts between team members.
Shatter Shield - Envelops Mesa in a barrier of energy, reflecting back incoming bullet damage.
Peacemaker - With intense focus, Mesa draws her Regulator pistols, shooting down her foes in rapid succession.
Acquisition: Main blueprint can be purchased from the Market. Component blueprints can be from defeating Mutalist Alad V on Mutalist Alad V Assassinate, Eris.
A complete 180 from last week’s frame, one of my favorite warframes in the game - Mesa! This warframe is just good at everything the game wants. Most Warframe missions come down to two things: not dying and killing everything fast. Mesa excels at both! I really enjoy how active her playstyle is, especially when using Mesa’s Waltz (which I consider mandatory on her). Shatter Shield damage reduction not working on everything is good design, it keeps you on your feet and forces you to readjust yourself from AoE and melee units. She’s also one of the few Exalted Weapons frames that just keeps getting better and better with time, the newest gain for her being Emerald Archon Shards letting her fully armor strip with Peacemakers alone.
