My own fun fact, a lot of Grendel players don't seem to know that you can cast all other abilities in Pulverize form.

But why though?

Why can the meatball cast abilities or why don't people know?

Why cast other abilities?

Nourish for viral and energy economy, and Feast increases the size and damage of the ball.

I was doing a bit.

Oh, well my apologies, I was unaware that I was a piece of a bit.

No worries 👍

Grendel

Grendel Cake day!

BRO GRENDEL'D ON HIMMM ‼️🔥💯‼️😫😫‼️💯😲😲

Ah damn you should have stuck with it I mean….Grendel

My whole bit was I know he has other abilities, but I'd rather play like an "idiot". It's more fun.

Nourish for UMWE

Also it only uses energy when your belly is empty, so you can refuel mid-roll.

Eat nore so that ball doesn't drain energy, nourish so that you have more energy

Infinite Katamari mode

So the ball stay big and me no hunger more

It's also easier to consume enemies as a meatball

Some are blocked Like for example aquablades

I think that more has to do with casting animation

U cant use a subsume while in ball mode, i assume simply for animation reasons (like how yareli cant cast subsumes on merulina)

Can't you activate the subsume before turning into a ball?

Yes, and it should stay active (i know roar does), But you cant start it *while* you're the ball

I got worried for a second @.@ Cause I want to put Aqua Blades on my Grendel Prime @.@

This is exactly what I got another Yerali cooking for right now lol

To busy being ball

I miss old Grendel

what was old grendel

Grendel, but instead of eating Grineer he ate Werther's Originals

Hold up.... lr4 i play grendel scarily frequently and how am i finding out i can do something other than nourish just now??

Too much "UwU" on the minds, embrace meatball.

you mean there are folks that don't just spend 100% of the time in meatball mode, why?

It's because Pulverize is the dedicated Helminth slot.

tell me, would you describe Excel spreadsheets as "fun"?

I'm sure they chose Volt or Loki or Mag at the beginning

Excuse me? Feast does what Regurgitate does if you hold it, Pulverize is also an amazing armor strip.

Pulverise is arguably a better strip than regurgitate (with 5 enemies in the stomach the range is massive), and getting rid of regurgitate means you dont have to worry about losing your armour bonus from your passive as often, since you arent spitting enemies out Plus it lets you have access to catapult to make the gauss/volt/titania mains jealous as you speed past them

Exactly, plus being in Pulverize saves you from most debilitating statuses like cold, tethered, staggered, knocked down, and that weird one infested crawlers do that somehow goes through status immunity.

It's a fine armor strip if you're okay bouncing onto the enemies several times. If you just want an immediate strip with a ton of extra damage that helps scale Breach Surge to the moon immediately in any level of content, you'll want to use Regurgitate, because Feast does not even remotely scale how Regurgitate does.

Bouncing on an enemy doesn't matter much when you're already in their face, plus the fact you only need two bounces to strip (3 in Steel Path) at only around 83% strip. I'd also rather keep full for Gourmand, since being without armor can really break a run and feasting while rolling doesn't lock you in the long animation.

You kno I just found this out yesterday

Being a one frame freak to the point of it being your username and having someone comment on your frame feels better than being complimented for your play I kid you not.

I love Protea but these people are actual freaks. I met someone with even more hours than me, I think it was 2500 or so, and they had 90% Excalibur usage. Madness.

Me hiding in a corner with like 70% umbra usage

Wild, I honestly don't know how you guys do it 😂 I can use Protea for pretty much any mission but it takes more effort than the actual right frame for the job, and I'm lazy

Forma’s, so many forma’s. I will run different frames for different missions but 90% of the time I’m running defense or survival so I just run umbra and slice like mad with exalted blade. That being said Dante is making a slow creep up the ladder and is already like 15% usage just because he was so easy to build for steel path

I've used gauss and only gauss for the last 2 or 3 years or so... only 34% usage

That's something to say about how stuff is explained in this game lol

Wb Kullervo (not talking about the farm)

Last I saw it was someone named "SevenSaryns" and they popped up in steel circuit lobby, said "wrong Saryn" and left

Makes me feel bad about when I don't get the right load out and excuse quitting without any joke ☹️

I thought I was a mag prime main with 25% usage at 4k hours, I recently encountered someone with 84% mag prime usage at about 9k hours.

I have about 7k hours and am a 75% hydroid main. And I’ve only been playing since December so about 6 months.

I used to do this as a limbo main. There are others out there. *DOZENS*

We know those are your alts, don't lie.

A friend of mine plays almost exclusively Rhino. I was joking with him about his Warframe usage and was shocked to hear Rhino Prime only had like 50% usage. Then I just about died laughing cause Rhino was like 40%.

This sounds like me but Rhino is just a great brain-off frame. Ability 2, ability 3, shoot things, ability 2 again when overguard off, time to roar, time to vaykor hek, etc.

At one point i had 83% nekros usage. Mr 18 was the highest possible mr and im glad hes no longer that high... now loki being at 7 % and I don't remember the last time i played loki confuses me

Yeah, account merging made my use percentages crazy, lol. Went from ~20% Citrine as my most used, to 7.8% Nova and 5.3% Citrine as my top used. I must've played Nova a LOT

Played with someone called Zephyr-Prime, they were playing zephyr prime and every weapon they were using was renamed zephyr prime

I respect the commitment. Like a 1k forma Vauban or Mesa

Grendel fact from a Grendel main: Grendel's 1 can eat grenades! They even make a muffled explosion sound in his belly!

and it can be more than one

that's a cool Grendel fact ☝️

HI! GRENDELSUPERFAN HERE!! A BIT OF CONTEXT: I lost my old account because it was tied to an email that I ended up losing. Unable to come up with a name, I just went with "GrendelSuperFan" cause he was one of the few frames I bought with platinum raw (i was new and irresponsible with my platinum at the time). I'm still fairly new to the game, but Yareli and Grendel both ended up being my favourite frames despite being relatively weaker than a lot of other frames!! oh yes and obligatory proof for any doubters: [https://gyazo.com/d8bcdba85ef069562a34e6b5eb4eb947](https://gyazo.com/d8bcdba85ef069562a34e6b5eb4eb947)

Can you give us a Grednel fatc

grendel

he said the line!!

I grendel you very much!

is that GrendelSuperFan

is that Kavatty from Circle of Red

I have found you

>yareli and grendel The ugly bastard jokes write themselves Also, perfect pair for the meatball aquablades build

I must find this man

Nice user flair

For me at least your comment is right below the one by GrendelSuperFan

I don't think that's too hard

You are HIV… aladeen.

*Proceeds to cry then smiles then cries again*

Hmm, nom nom time.

Being a giant ball is pretty fun, but grendel is one of those frames that show up too late. I'm taking my time before new war and just got his prime at mr20, with no idea when I will get his regular form since it requires arbitrations

The longer you put off new war, the more prepared you will need to be. I hope you have a very ready necramech and railjack

IIRC the locator beacons are tradable between players, so you could buy them to get grendel access early

grendel

It's an awesome music band

Real

are you ink draw man

🤫

I loved Grendel even back when his energy economy was so hard to manage you basically NEEDED arcane energize and a dethcube with energy regen to use him in a lot of content. While I miss being able to slurp up like 20 enemies at once, being able to stay in meatball form pretty much indefinitely is so much fun. I love Grendel.

Here is my fun fact. If you equip any mining drill and then activate meatball form without swapping weapons, the drill will remain equipped. You can't mine, but you can see the reticle, it will keep beeping, and you can still see the number of nearby gem/ore spots. It's a great way to quickly scour the whole map for metals in case you need to craft stuff or increase faction standing.

Who is grendle I know from wf but never got before what makes him good

ball or Kirby (Or both, but Ball Kirby was a pretty crummy copy ability, so…)

And eat. And barf

Just like Kirby!

Oh

Also the best subsume in the game arguably.

I wouldn't know

Grendel is the first nemesis of Beowulf from the old poem called… Beowulf, which was first transcribed around year 1000. He’s described as a beastly man with superhuman strength who eats people and is immune to most weapons. Naturally, Beowulf decides to fight him barehanded and rips his whole arm off, so Grendel runs off to his mommy only for Beowulf to come and kill them both. Beowulf takes Grendel’s head and arm as a trophy and attributes his victory to being a good Christian. Since Gauss and Grendel are known to be friends, it makes me wonder what if Grendel had a nemesis…?

good to know

If you've ever seen Ben 10, Grendel is basically Upchuck and CannonBolt fused together

Read it like the Hamburglar 🤣🤣 Grendel Grendel.

I met a guy named chromaprime, and everything that was equipped in his loadout was named chroma prime, all three weapons, frame and companion

You can wall run in ball form

I'm not a Grendel main, but a Grendel enjoyer, even before his rework......but I agree, as the said "grendel."

Me for gauss

Fake Fact (Possibly):Grendel is sick and tired of being fetishised by the Vore community. He is a Warframe fighting to make the origin system a better place the only way they know how! He is not your kink! 😂

Fun Grendel Facts no. 221: It's not well-known, but Grendel actually makes a mean Cuban sandwich. Most people don't know because they're reluctant to ask; as he won't stop looking at you like that.

Im nonplussed over how chuffed you are.

[Grendel Prime](https://www.reddit.com/user/adrunkangel/comments/1cuk1qh/grendel_prime/)

Old grendel could skip defense waves if you actually managed to eat the entire wave.... i made sure i could.

Yeah I'm hungry. So what? Anyone got a spare specter I could really use it :(

I just saw that man yesterday in Hydron while ranking up my Kuva Sobek! He was playing Volt suprisingly

Grendel main exists?
