Styanax has always been a favorite for players who love high-mobility support and crowd control. His Prime variant doesn't just look better; it brings the expected stat bumps to shields and energy that make his ability-heavy kit even more sustainable in high-level Steel Path runs. For those who enjoy the role-playing aspect of being a legendary Tenno commander, his new aesthetic perfectly captures the vibe of an ancient hero reborn.
The release also introduces two signature Prime weapons that are worth the farm alone:
- Afentis Prime: A regal version of his signature speargun, offering improved stats that reward precise throws and tactical placement.
- Athodai Prime: This powerful hand-cannon now sports the Orokin gold trim, delivering massive heat damage with every headshot trigger.
As with all Prime releases, you have two ways to add these to your Arsenal. You can pick up Prime Access packs for instant access, which include exclusive cosmetics like the Lanex Prime Syandana and Daurus Prime Armor, along with 90-day Affinity and Resource Boosters. If you prefer the grind, you can start cracking Void Relics immediately to farm the blueprints for the frame and weapons without spending a dime.
This update reinforces Styanax's position in the meta as a premier defensive and offensive hybrid. Whether you are stripping armor with Tharros Strike or providing infinite energy to your squad, the Prime version ensures you look like a god of war while doing it. Happy hunting in the Void, Tenno.
