(Where it sits)

Across the 117 frames in the roster, Caliban Prime sits in the top fifteen per cent for shield (6th of 117).

It ships with 3 polarities already installed, plus Naramon on the aura slot, so that much of the board costs no forma.

(Abilities)

  1. 01

    Razor Gyre 25 energy

    Dash forward in a spinning vortex of death. Struck enemies are inflicted with Tau Status Effect, making them more vulnerable to all other status effects. For each enemy hit, recover a portion of the energy cost, as well as health and shields. Enemies lifted by Sentient Wrath take increased damage.

    Augment: Razor Mortar

  2. 02

    Sentient Wrath 50 energy Subsumable

    Smash the ground sending out a radial wave of destruction. Those not killed by the initial blast are helplessly raised into the air, where they take amplified damage for a short time.

  3. 03

    Lethal Progeny 50 energy

    Cycle through Sentient unit types, then summon them to Caliban's side. Conculysts focus on raw melee damage. Ortholysts specialize in ranged attacks and inflict Tau Status Effect. Summulysts summon their own Choralysts and provide shield protection for the squad.

  4. 04

    Fusion Strike 100 energy

    Converge three streams of raw energy upon a single point, causing a massive explosion. The streams strip armor and shields, and each enemy struck detonates on stream convergence. Summoned Conculysts can wield their own mini Fusion Strikes.

Costs are base figures, before efficiency.

Chances are per reward roll, as the drop tables state them. Relic rows show the chance at each refinement; a relic drops Intact.
