There appear to be two model series of frames: the 55-30 series and the 99-40 series. The former is distinguished by their flat-topped heads and small, circular eye, while the the latter feature a more typical head shape with a larger, square eye, as well as two secondary eyes mounted externally to the sides of the head on models produced circa the [[Red War]]. It is unknown what these differences signify, however 55-30 frames are most notably functioning as vendors whereas 99-40 frames are commonly seen or implied to serve in maintenance and combat roles.

Forces of the Vanguard's Frames formed the bulk of the Last City's forces during the conflict with the resurgent [[Hidden Swarm]] on [[Luna]]. The battle near the [[Hellmouth]] reached a stalemate until the Guardian's arrival. Upon driving the [[Hive]] back, the Vanguard managed to form a base of operations outside [[Sorrow's Harbor]].

[[Season of the Worthy]]'s Seraph Tower public event introduced a new variant of Frame built by [[Rasputin]] called [[Heavy Frames]], which can be spawned in during the activity to aid Guardian forces by players with certain Bunker upgrades unlocked. In addition regular [[Rasputin]] frames also appear in bunkers and in the mission "Into the Mindlab".
[[Emperor Calus]] had also used Frames, although they were hacked City Frames.

In the Bunker E15 lost sector on [[Europa]], there are several frames that are trapped in some sort of Vex cage. Releasing them results in them assisting you in completing the lost sector.
 
Numerous Frames serve as the crew of the [[H.E.L.M.]], where they can be seen performing tasks and analyses.
 
Many 99-40 Frames are present on the [[Leviathan (ship)|Derelict Leviathan]], and where they give out a number of [[Patrol]] missions.

Frames are multi-purpose non-sentient robots that serve the City and Reef. They are mainly used in civil or defensive roles by both powers.

Overview[edit]

Developed during the Golden Age,[citation needed] but not nearly as advanced as the fully sentient Exo, frames are useful for both civil and military applications. Some frames are found in the Tower as vendors; other frames are used as defense robots. Lord Shaxx uses platoons of frames called Redjacks to secure potential Crucible sites.[citation needed] Frames are capable of learning from experience and developing unique personalities over time.[1]

The Reef also uses frames as auxiliary guards, as they can be found wandering the Vestian Outpost and serving similar posts as their Tower counterparts.[2] However, these frames are more primitive, as they lack learning capabilities or personalities, and are wiped from time to time.[3]

There appear to be two models of frames: the 55-30 series and the 99-40 series. The former is distinguished by their flat-topped heads and single small, circular eye, while the latter features a more typical head shape with a larger, square eye, as well as two secondary eyes mounted externally to the sides of the head on models produced around the Red War. It is unknown what these differences signify. However, 55-30 frames are most notably functioning as vendors, whereas 99-40 frames are commonly seen or implied to serve in maintenance and combat roles.[citation needed]

Frames deployed into combat have a slightly modified appearance, having protective plating on their head, legs and arms, and chest armor resembling the Twilight Garrison. These frames were spotted aboard the H.E.L.M. performing tasks and analyses,[4] on the Moon where they were part of the initial assault against the resurgent Hidden Swarm and later guarding their base of Sanctuary,[5] and assisting Guardians in deploying Advanced Defense Units in Onslaughts against the forces of the Witness and Fikrul, the Fanatic.[6][7]

Rasputin also made use of Combat Frames in numerous conflicts, such as the Battle of Site-6[8][9] and his conflicts with the Red Legion and forces of Xivu Arath. In addition to regular Frames, Rasputin also has access to Heavy Frames.[10][11]

Many Frames were destroyed during the invasion of The Last City by Red Legion forces.[12] However, some Frames were saved during the invasion of the Tower and later used to defend The Farm in the European Dead Zone.[citation needed]

Emperor Calus had also used Frames, although they were hacked City Frames. Several were present on the Derelict Leviathan during the Severing of the Nightmares that provided patrols.[13] One, Werner 99-40, even became one of Calus' Shadows.[14]

Gameplay[edit]

Frames are occasionally encountered as allies in activities. They are usually armed with an Auto Rifle, but sometimes wield Rocket Launchers. While they wear different liveries, they all share the same simplistic combat patterns. They generally stand still or walk in a set path, stopping to fire at the closest enemy they encounter. They don't do much damage, but since they are immune to all attacks, they can be useful for drawing enemy fire. They also count as allies for the purpose of effects that activate when near an ally, such as the Runneth Over Weapon Origin Trait.

Known Frames[edit]
