Warframe’s Baruuk shows off his “pacifist” ability set

The next Warframe coming to Digital Extremes’ constantly-expanding game is Baruuk, who the developers have described as a “reluctant warrior” and even a “pacifist.” This week, the team gave a demonstration of all of his abilities in a live devstream, and Baruuk looks like he’ll be an interesting Warframe to play both solo and as part of a team. Baruuk’s abilities are governed by a special resource called Edge. This is built up in combat and by Baruuk using his abilities, and it represents the idea that Baruuk can only be pushed so far before he unleashes his inner lethality. His first ability is a channelled power called Elude. It functions as a damage-reduction buff, but the on-screen effect is remarkable: Baruuk’s midsection shimmers as if it’s moving or vibrating, or perhaps phasing between adjacent realities. Incoming projectiles pass through Baruuk’s model, and using Elude builds up his Edge meter. Note, however, that Elude only is effective in a cone that extends in front of Baruuk. His second ability is Sedative, which is a cone-shaped area-of-effect. Baruuk projects runes onto the ground in front of him, and enemies in the area or who enter it gradually slow and fall asleep. Once they’re sleeping, they’re vulnerable to finishing attacks from either Baruuk or his teammates. Sedative will also build Baruuk’s Edge level, depending on the number of enemies caught in its area of effect.
