Orokin elites admired farmers in conquered regions, because they had learned to fight with modified farming tools despite being forbidden to own weapons. For their voyage, the Zariman were presented with Praedos in recognition of Zariman tenacity. The Void reinforces the strength of the spirited individual by fortifying the Praedos.

Praedos is an Incarnon ceremonial tonfa. Once its Incarnon form is unlocked, Tenno can transform this weapon in battle by executing a Heavy Attack with a Melee Combo of 5x or higher, increasing the weapon's range and attack speed.
