Qorvex is a hulking mass of concrete arranged around a radioactive Crucible Core. Designed and created by Albrecht Entrati himself, he serves as a bulwark against the terrifying and eldritch forces that now invade his labs. Qorvex now serves as a new guardian to the Chosen Operator.
==Notes==
*Qorvex's signature can empower with fully charged shots.
*Qorvex has the highest base Armor of all Warframes at 875, surpassing 's 735.
==Trivia==
*Qorvex is the 55th unique Warframe to be released.
*Qorvex was first mentioned in Devstream 174 during the upcoming features checklist showcase for Whispers in the Walls. His in-game model, abilities, alt helmet, and signature archgun were revealed in Devstream 175.
*Qorvex is the first Warframe whose name begins with the letter "Q". As of his announcement, the only letter remaining with a related Warframe, is 'U'.
**The name Qorvex could be a portmanteau of the words core and vex. In nuclear engineering, core is a term for "the inner part of a nuclear reactor where nuclear reactions takes place", which refers to Qorvex's Crucible Core contained by his innumerable concrete plating. Vex is a verb for "to annoy or irritate" or "to cause mental distress", which implies the confusion afflicting his foes by the status effect.
*Concrete is often used in the containment of radioactive material due to it being dense enough to absorb most forms of ionizing radiation, and cheap enough to be used in vast quantities. The penetrating nature of radiation is alluded to in Qorvex's Passive granting additional Punch Through to any of his guns. This may also be a reference to the use of depleted uranium in the manufacture of armor-piercing rounds.
*Some of Qorvex' abilities give of the signature clicking sound of a Geiger counter, an instrument used for detection ionizing radiation.
* is derived from Cherenkov radiation, a form of energy emitted when the charged particles moving at speeds faster than that of light in a specific medium.
* is derived from dosimetry, the measurement and study of ionizing radiation as absorbed by the human body.
*A week prior to Devstream 175, Creative Director Rebecca Ford and Warframe's official Twitter teased Qorvex's descriptive appearance and his official default colors, encouraging players to guess and draw his look.Rebecca Teases QorvexQorvex's Default Colors
*The development process on Qorvex spanned across 2023 according to Rebecca and Pablo. His brutalist concrete appearance drew heavy inspiration from the stone-like Murmur faction also introduced with him, and required several iterations from artist Mike "Mynki" Brennan.
**Qorvex's concrete armor plating are separate slabs that pulsate in a breathing-like pattern during his idle Animation Sets. This animation affects various body parts, such as his helmet, chest, shoulders and arms, codpiece, thighs and legs.
**When Qorvex was first announced, his passive was originally going to grant bonus damage to all weapons he has equipped.
*He is the ninth Warframe after , , , , , and , and with a unique dodge roll animation, where Qorvex slides in a bashing posture as the sound of moving stone plays.
**Similar to 's armor clanking footsteps, Qorvex's footsteps emit stone friction noise.
*Qorvex's physical design and idle animations appear to be modeled after gorillas.
