It’s Nezarec, not Nezerac Lore
For some reason, what seems like 90% of posts make this typo - and I don’t know why, but it annoys me greatly.

Lion Rampant, not Lion Rampart.
The Lion Rampant is the royal standard of the King or Queen of Scots. You can see the symbol on the armor piece.

Just Frank Exchange is good. Make it a solar precision frame with the tex origin trait and let it roll threat detector offhand strike, or better yet hipfire grip offhand strike

crossed wires from people shortening it as Vow and the tendency for raid shorthands to be capitalized in that way (VoG, GoS, DSC, VotD, RoN, LW)
