(Where it sits)

Across the 119 frames in the roster, Chroma Prime sits in the top fifteen per cent for armor (9th of 119) and energy (17th of 119).

It ships with 4 polarities already installed, plus Madurai on the aura slot, so that much of the board costs no forma.

How to get Chroma Prime

Chroma Prime comes out of Void relics — 23 of them across its 4 parts. It is in the Vault: those relics no longer drop, so the only routes left are a player who already holds them and the occasional unvaulting.

In the Vault — the relics below are not in the current drop tables.
