Warframe (Switch): all the updates (Archives: April – December 2023)

On this page, you will find all there is to know about the updates for Warframe on Nintendo Switch (originally released on November 20th 2018 in Europe and North America, and November 21st 2018 in Japan).

This post features the updates released between April 2023 and December 2023. For the most recent updates, check out this page instead!

Nintendo Switch Specific Notes: 

• Changed the Grimoire’s Alt Fire projectile to prevent frequent crashing for our Nintendo Switch Users. This is a temporary change until the Code fix can be shipped in our next Cert build.
  • This alt fire projectile no longer applies chaining electricity damage, which greatly reduces the overall damage output of this weapon. While this functionality has changed, the explosion still functions with Tome Mods. We understand that this is not an ideal situation, but due to the prevalence of the crashing, this temporary workaround was needed until the permanent fix comes in our next Cert build. Rest assured, we’ll be reverting this change once that build ships!
  • For more information about Code Fixes and Cert, check out our Warframe Lexicon!

Operation: Gargoyle’s Cry Changes and Fixes:

• You can now access the Operation Store via Vigile Jahu Gargoyles in other players’ clans! 
  • Note: You cannot contribute to their Curse progress, but you’ll be able to purchase wares with Grotesque Splinters. 
• Increased reward sorting importance for Curses and Grotesque Splinters so they now appear near the top of the list in the Mission Progress screen. 
• The Fragmented Trio (Anchorite/Suzerain/Zelator) will now search out cloaked opponents if they sense a hiding enemy nearby, instead of just giving up.
  • Now, these enemies will use their area-of-effect attacks to find you if they sense you’re hidden nearby!
• Adjusted the Fragmented Trio’s beam attack to better match its effects.
• Adjusted secret boss’s Cascading Fragmentation ability to deal more damage and scale more aggressively, but be triggered later in the fight.
• Fixed secret boss not dropping Stela. 
• Fixes towards killing the Void Angel not registering in Effervo, preventing players from completing the mission.
• Fixed Titania still being able to float if Razorwing was disabled in secret boss fight. 
• Fixed Steel Path Effervo Assassinate enemy level calculation to be more consistent. 
• Fixed Gargoyle’s Cry not appearing at the top of the Operation tab in the Star Chart.
• Fixed various crashes related to host migrations on Effervo (Deimos).
• Fixed a script error related to Operation: Gargoyle’s Cry.
• Fixed the ability to place multiple Vigile Jahu Gargoyles in Clan Dojos.
  • These decorations have 0 capacity cost so as to not restrict Clans from placing them — as a result, they are limited to 1 per Dojo with performance concerns (and your tolerance for a certain Cavia member’s sass) in mind.  
• Fixed Operation rewards being affected by boosters if picked up in a specific way.
• Fixed the World State Window in your Orbiter displaying 0% progress for the Operation. Also fixed goal progress being shown here if you did not complete Whispers in the Walls.

Changes:

  • “Archon Shard fusion is permanent. This action cannot be undone. Type CONFIRM to confirm.”
• Added a waypoint marker to lore fragment drops from Mocking/Scathing Whispers. 
• Changed Mocking/Scathing Whispers’ enemy waypoint to be white to help it stand out amongst other objective waypoints.
• The Tennokai Mod Bundle no longer requires completion of the Whispers in the Walls Quest to purchase in the Market.
  • Players can access Tennokai without the Melee Upgrade Segment installed in their Arsenal, so we see no reason to lock it behind Quest completion. 
• Changed Cavia Syndicate minimap markers to be yellow to improve visibility.
• Renamed “Promotion” Clan Role to “Promoter” to be consistent with other Role naming. 
• Updated Topaz Archon Shard Blast Damage embed bonus description to more clearly communicate the effect.
  • Now: “Gain X Health per enemy killed with Blast Damage.”
• Added missing sound effects to the Bounty Portal in Sanctum Anatomica. 
• Adjusted the Sanctum Anatomica elevator sound effects to have a clearer spool up and tweaked the sounds to be at less of a high pitched frequency.
• Reduced the amount of Rogue Culvern weak points required in the Cavia bounty challenge to address players having difficulty completing it.
• Adjusted Rogue Culvern weak point explosion to scale with level and do less damage to players. 

Optimizations:

• Made various small server optimizations.

Fixes:

• Fixes towards Heavy Attacking while using Transference causing players to be stuck in an endless Void Blast loop as Operator/Drifter.
  • We cannot guarantee this is a perfect fix, but after testing we hope that this issue should be less prevalent at the very least!
• Fixed Murmur Spawners leaving behind an incredibly bright light in Albrecht’s Laboratories missions.
• Fixed additional cases of Whispers in the Walls Quest completion inboxes not being received by players. 
  • Those who were still missing Quest rewards should see the messages in your inbox upon login!
• Fixed The Severed Warden not counting towards “Kill x Flying Murmur Enemies” Cavia bounty challenges.
• Fixed The Murmur Assassination (Effervo) and Alchemy (Cambire) missions on Deimos not having session lock checkpoints. Now players will not be able to join your squad once the following objectives are complete in your missions:

  • Now if you have 5 Topaz Shards embedded, your Secondary Crit Chance would be capped at 250% instead of only 50% before, as an example.
• Fixed Melee Influence spreading status effects applied to invulnerable enemies. 
• Fixed Melee Influence being able to trigger Exodia Force.
• Fixed Critical Mutation Catabolyst Augment incorrectly applying its Critical Chance and Critical Damage buffs, leading to significantly higher than intended damage output. 
• Fixed Hydroid’s Tentacle Swarm throwing Murmur enemies into the air instead of grabbing them. 
• Fixed Nautilus’ Cordon Precept affecting enemies that should be immune to crowd control effects. 
• Fixed Yareli not automatically dropping off Defixio in the Extraction zone when she is riding Merulina in Abyssal Zone missions. 
• Fixed Steel Path Effervo Assassinate enemy level calculation to be more consistent. 
• Fixed Voruna’s Shroud of Dynar not being extended with melee kills.
• Fixed Aerodynamic’s Wall Latch duration stat not properly scaling with Mod Rank in the Arsenal or Mod Menu. 
  • This was a UI only bug and had no impact in-mission.
• Fixed players not retaining rewards or Affinity from Stage 1 of the Whispers in the Walls Quest. 
  • The End of Mission screen will not appear upon extraction as a stylistic decision, but you should actually keep all that you’ve earned now!
• Fixed Mocking/Scathing Whispers becoming invulnerable if affected by Cold procs during certain points of the fight. 
• Fixed Loid having a nose ring in a cutscene in the Whispers in the Walls Quest.

Nintendo Switch Specific Note: 

• Removed the “Web Authentication” button on Nintendo Switch. 
  • Players are directed to use this button on the console when attempting to log into www.warframe.com with a Nintendo account. Unfortunately, this button was not working as intended for a small group of players for various reasons and would simply log them out of the website instead of authorizing their accounts as intended. In order to fix this, a code fix is required (meaning we cannot hotfix to resolve this issue), so for the time being, we have removed the button in this hotfix to prevent players from getting stuck in a logout loop. What this means is that, due to us being unable hotfix the authentication issue, this small group of affected players will be unable to log into the website for the time being.

Changes: 

• • Hotdropped (already live!): We have added a bonus built Orokin Reactor to the Sanctum Supporter Pack! Install it onto your new Vaska Kavat from the Pack or save it for something else. 
    • We will be running a script to give the Orokin Reactor to those who have already purchased the pack. Script completed!

• The Gillychap Shoulder Plate can now be purchased separately for Platinum in the in-game Market! Your new best friend and crewmate awaits you!

• Updated the Whispers in the Walls Update Screen to better direct players on how to start the Quest.

Whispers in the Walls Quest Changes & Fixes: 

• The repair Necramite drones will no longer spawn during the “Find and Destroy the Necramite Drone To Continue” phase of the Netracell phase in the Quest as well as for all Netracell missions after quest completion. Now, only the drones that need destroying will appear to prevent confusion between the two. 
• Increased Necramite waypoint range during the “Find and Destroy the Necramite Drone To Continue” phase of the Netracell mission, to help players suss them out easier.

• Fixed a Cavia rank up screen not scaling up with Menu Scale settings. 

Sanctum Anatomica Fixes:

• Fixed other players in the Sanctum Anatomica being visible while interacting with the machine. 
• Fixed the Menu Scale setting affecting the screen of the machine in the Sanctum Anatomica, which would cause the edges to appear black and the UI elements on the screen to no longer be intractable. 
• Fixed subtitle punctuation errors when speaking to one of the vendors in the Sanctum Anatomica hub. 
• Fixed a script error when closing the game from the Sanctum Anatomica hub. 

General Fixes:

• Additional notes: none.
• Source: Digital Extremes

Nintendo Switch Specific Notes:

• Optimized memory usage on Nintendo Switch.
• Made systemic micro-optimizations to Nintendo Switch rendering.
• Note on new fog system: Unfortunately, this system is  not available at this time on the Nintendo Switch to avoid creating issues with performance. Nintendo Switch will continue to use the previous raymarch fog system to maintain stability on the platform. 
• Fixed Warframe Ability videos in the Ability screen at times appearing choppy when Nintendo Switch is docked.

CROSS PLATFORM SAVE ROLLOUT (BEGINS DEC 14TH)

STARTING DECEMBER 14TH, we will begin the rollout of Cross Platform Save across all available Platforms! 

Cross Platform Save is an upcoming optional feature that allows you to Merge or Link your accounts to unify Warframe progress across all platforms. This allows you to use a single Warframe account across any Linked or Merged platforms (with some restrictions outlined in this FAQ).

To ensure success and stability during the launch of this highly requested feature, Cross Platform Save will be made available in staggered phases.

You can check if your Account is included in the latest phase and is ready for Cross Platform Save by going to the Account Management page on www.warframe.com.

If you do not qualify for the active phase, please wait for our announcement that the next phase is live before checking again. We appreciate your patience while we roll out these features — our intention is to have Cross Platform Save in everyone’s hands in 2023.

We are excited to reach this milestone in Warframe with the arrival of Cross Platform Save allowing Tenno to access their account on any Platform they choose. We will of course monitor and respond to any issues during the rollout phases. If you would like to report an issue or share feedback, please use our dedicated Cross Platform Save sub-forums.

For errors encountered during Cross Platform Save account setup, please contact Warframe Support www.support.warframe.com.

Thank you for your cooperation and feedback while we ensure the landmark new feature is working for all Tenno!

For all the details on the Cross Platform Save rollout, including an extended FAQ, please visit: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1374265-cross-platform-save-rollout-information-beginning-dec-14/ 

CROSS PLATFORM TRADING & GIFTING

Tenno can now trade with players on different platforms (depending on those players’ Cross Platform settings). Trading will function the same as gifting, except for trading Platinum between Nintendo Switch and other platforms, which is not available. 

To trade with friends or fellow Tenno across platforms, make sure you are using a Cross Platform Save Account (or PC account*) and have Cross Platform Play enabled via your in-game settings. TennoGuard 2FA is required to trade in-game items with fellow Tenno in Warframe, which can be enabled via the Account Management page.

*PC accounts can automatically trade with players on other platforms — provided that both players still have Cross Platform Play enabled in their settings and that any non-PC player trading with them has a Cross Platform Save Account (more information on this in the link below).

NEW CINEMATIC QUEST: WHISPERS IN THE WALLS

Deep within the Necralisk, a dormant precept known as The Kalymos Sequence has been activated. You must return to Deimos and investigate Albrecht’s hidden, subterranean Laboratories for any clues he may have left behind.

Whatever he was working on, you will quickly discover that his Laboratories are the source of many unknowns… 

The Whispers in the Walls Quest acts as an introduction into Warframe’s next major chapter. As with all research, discoveries often lead to more questions… 

Note to Content Creators: Content creators are able to broadcast and/or publish VODs of their Whispers in the Walls Quest experience without DMCA concerns. This does not include edited video content outside of the context of your gameplay stream which includes licensed music from the Quest.

Quest Prerequisites
You must have the following Quests completed to access the Whispers in the Walls Quest:

• Heart of Deimos
• The New War

Note: We have removed Mastery Rank requirements from all main story Quests (which includes those listed above) to allow players to enjoy story content without the delays that Mastery Rank gain and tests would cause (more information on that covered below in the New Player Path Improvements section below). 

Quest Rewards

• Blueprint for the New Warframe Qorvex 
• New Secondary Weapon: Grimoire 
  • Max Ranked and includes a Weapon Slot and pre-installed Orokin Catalyst.
• Melee Upgrade Segment (more information in the New Heavy Melee Attack System: Tennokai section) 
• Mentor’s Legacy Mod (more information in the New Heavy Melee Attack System: Tennokai section) 
• Melee Arcane Adapter (more information in the New Heavy Melee Attack System: Tennokai section) 
• Access to the Cavia Syndicate in the new Sanctum Anatomica hub on Deimos
• Access to new Deimos nodes and mission types

 

COMING SOON – OPERATION: GARGOYLE’S CRY (BEGINS DEC 18TH!) 

The Murmur encroaches on our systems, Tenno. The Whispers beyond the Wall are a new threat; we must ensure they stay confined to Albrecht’s Laboratories 

Operation: Gargoyle’s Cry is a time-limited event, launching on December 18th @ 11 AM ET on all platforms! 

 

REQUIREMENTS AND HOW TO PREPARE

1. Complete the Whispers in the Walls Quest 

If you are new to Warframe and have not completed the Heart of Deimos and The New War Quests to be able to play the Whispers in the Walls Quest, we have made it much easier in this update to catch up! More information on that in the New Player Path Improvements section below. 

2. Be a part of a Clan and own a Clan Key 

If you aren’t already in a Clan, you can either join or create one! 

How to Join a Clan: 

• You can either search for a Clan OR a friend can send an invite to join theirs. To search for a Clan, follow these steps:  
• Pause Menu > Communication > Clan > Select the “Search for a Clan” option.
• From there you can choose from the available options (Tier, language, activity level, etc.) to search for your ideal Clan.
• Select the Clan that appeals most to you to send in a request to join, from there the Clan can accept your request if you also meet their requirements. 

How to Form a Clan:

• Pause Menu > Communication > Clan > Select the “Form a Clan” option. 
• Enter the name of your Clan 
• Congrats you are now the Founding Warlord of your very own Clan! 

In both scenarios, a Clan Key is required for the Operation as you will need access to your Clan’s Dojo. Upon joining/creating a Clan, the blueprint will be added to your Foundry for you to craft it. 

3. Ensure a Clan Member has the Architect or Dojo Decorator Role

Placing a Decoration in your Clan Dojo is a key component to participating in the Operation. In order to do so, you’ll need an active Clan member with the Architect or Dojo Decorator Role! A Clan’s Founding Warlord, Warlord, General, Officer, and Sage all have this role by default. 

 

NEW TILESET: ALBRECHT’S LABORATORIES

Impressive though they may appear, the Laboratories are not without dangers of their own. You’ll find the gilded alcoves patrolled by abandoned Necramechs faithfully defending their departed master’s secretive research.

These majestic halls constitute a brand-new Warframe tileset, expanding outwards directly from the tunnels beneath the Necralisk. Gilded rooms filled with instruments are not all that can be found below… A haunting but familiar presence also lingers within the labyrinth. Weaved in with Albrecht’s place of research are vast bleak spaces where an unending storm rages on, a clear demonstration of The Man in the Walls’ influence. 

 

NEW ENEMY FACTION: THE MURMUR 
Known by many names, The Murmur are the hands (and feet, and eyes, and… you get the idea) of The Indifference. They are attempting to break through Albrecht’s Laboratories into the Origin System – something Tenno will need to stop at all costs.

 

*The image above shows The Anatomizer in the foreground and The Hollow Vein in the background. 

The Fragmented 
On the rare occasions when Murmur fragments assemble themselves into a whole, the result is a monstrous and potent entity. It may manifest in three different forms, the Suzerain, Zelator and Anchorite, with a fourth form, The Fragmented One, being the most formidable of all. Together, as heralds of the Indifference, they tether down the Strands of Khra which their bizarre master must travel. To learn more about where and how you will encounter The Fragmented, read the Assassination: The Fragmented section. 

The Severed Warden
Brutally cut from the Indifference in order to protect the greater whole, its three hands bestow the Void’s twisted blessing upon its allies, so long as they remain attached.

The Anatomizer
A vortex of clinical destruction, it hurls explosive charges, intent upon dismembering opponents as it was itself dismembered. 

The Hollow Vein
Albrecht Entrati was unsure whether this awkward composite was the result of the Indifference’s incomplete understanding of human anatomy, or an attempt at creative rearrangement thereof.

Shuffling Fragment
In its calcified chaos, the Indifference is disjointed even from itself. 

Lumbering Fragment
These sundered limbs have only partly fused. Lumbering, mindless horror is the result.

Hurling Fragment
Clings to the cliffs and walls, hurling masonry on anything unfortunate enough to be traveling below. 

Rupturing Fragment 
This lumbering fragment, unconcerned with self-preservation, is liable to rupture violently when in proximity to its target. 

 

*The image above shows the Rogue Arcocanid. 

ROGUE NECRAMECH ENEMIES
Originally designed to defend Albrecht’s Laboratories from outsiders, these Necramechs have gone rogue and will attempt to destroy any interlopers who cross their path. 

Rogue Culverin
An experimental Necramech, optimized for ranged combat, built for Albrecht Entrati by his son-in-law. It now fights alongside the very Murmur foes it was meant to repel.

Rogue Arcocanid
An experimental melee Necramech, a variant on the Tombjockey class, built for Albrecht Entrati by his son-in-law. It now fights alongside the very Murmur foes it was meant to repel.

Rogue Voidrig 
A robust, if primitive, war-engine initially developed by Albrecht Entrati’s son-in-law to fight in the Old War and now repurposed as a laboratory guardian. Confused as to who its true master is, it now sides with the Murmur, contradicting its original precepts.
 

TILESET GAMEPLAY FEATURES 
The Laboratories are brimming with instruments and research technologies that can be used to your advantage!

Summon Personal Necramech
Colorless antiques pepper the Laboratories and contain archaic hacking technology. Convince the system to let you in by matching the corresponding icons to the sequence. 

 

Inserting the incorrect sequence (red icons) will increase corruption levels, which risks failing the hacking attempt. Correctly matching the sequence will reward you by delivering your personal Necramech and your Squad’s to nearby dispensers. Once a terminal has been used, it is disabled for the rest of the mission and the ability to summon a Necramech is put on cooldown. Seek out new terminals once the cooldown has expired to once again dispatch your Necramech! 

Vitriol Phials
As one might expect, the Laboratories contain a multitude of health and safety hazards beyond the enemies that patrol the halls. Most notable being the Vitriol Phials – destroying them releases their Corrosive contents which can aid against foes but watch your step! Vitriol does not distinguish friend and foe. 

Lohk Surges 
Lohk Surges are inescapable reminders that the Void has leaked into the Laboratories… Interact with them to provide you and your squad a buff. Be wary that doing so will spawn a foe! 

TILESET COLLECTIBLES
There is much to discover in the Laboratories. If you can brave the dangers within, your searches within its long and winding corridors will prove fruitful. 

Codex Fragments: Albrecht’s Notes
Much has unfolded within the confines of Albrecht’s Laboratories and he made sure to document the events of his research in great detail. These notes are bound tightly within his Grimoire, which can materialize in the Laboratories, but be forewarned… unbinding it and looking into Albrecht’s lost notes summons something that cannot be easily banished. If you are successful in eliminating it, a note from Albrecht’s Grimoire may be left behind in its stead.

Voca
Physical manifestations of Voidtongue cries, moans, and whispers. There are three kinds of Voca: Shrill Voca, Bellow Voca, and Echo Voca. 

 

They are sought after by the Cavia and are used in the following ways:

• Turn in for Cavia Standing in the Sanctum Anatomica hub on Deimos 
• Exchange for Wares in the the Sanctum Anatomica hub on Deimos 
• Used to craft Qorvex, Ekhein, and more 

Voca can be earned as rewards in Cavia Bounty drop tables and can be found throughout Albrecht’s Laboratories similarly to Syndicate Medallions (squad-wide pickups!). Each mission spawns 8 Voca for you to seek out. They emit a distinct sound when you are near them, so keep your eyes and ears open as you explore every nook and cranny. 

NEW RESOURCES
The following resources can be found by exploring Albrecht’s Laboratories, killing enemies within them, and completing the new Deimos missions. 

Entrati Obols
During the Orokin era, these obols were a commonly recognized mark of the Entrati family. Some Archimedeans even used them as good luck talismans.

Necracoil
This experimental array transmutes Void energy into high voltages with low currents.

Stela
This Void-touched stone contains an ominous essence. Stela is specifically used in Coalescent Fusion – read the Archon Shard Expansion: Coalescent Fusion section to learn more! 

Look out for a unique resource cache and destroy it to wrest the Stela from its grip. Stela can also be obtained by collecting Vosphene Glyphs in Mirror Defense on Munio, Deimos, completing Sanctum Anatomica Bounties, and defeating enemies in Albrecht’s Laboratories. 
 

DEIMOS EXPANSION: NEW NODES & MISSION TYPES

Completing the Whispers in the Walls Quest unveils five new nodes on Deimos to continue your excursions throughout Albrecht’s Laboratories. One of these new nodes feature a brand new mission type called Alchemy and four feature existing mission types (Assassination, Mirror Defense, Survival, and Exterminate) with an Entrati twist. All of these nodes are also available on The Steel Path! 

There is also a special weekly mission type called Netracell that is exclusively accessed in the Sanctum Anatomica hub on Deimos. Read on to learn more! 

 

NETRACELLS (WEEKLY)

The Netracells are secured by hazardous Keyglyphs found only in the Anchorhold. They contain highly sought after valuables and can only be opened by using the correct Keyglyph. The Keyglyphs were designed by Albrecht Entrati to open his secretive Netracells. Each one imposes a heavy burden on its carrier. An added security measure to give the lab’s defenses an advantage, should a Keyglyph fall into unknown hands.

 

*Image above shows the Anchorhold. 

Note On Difficulty: 
This game mode is intended to be very challenging, and specifically tuned for full squads. Be sure to prepare accordingly! The following restrictions apply to all Netracell missions: 

• Empowered Enemies: Enemy Health and Shields increased by 100% and an additional 50% for each squad member, stacking to a maximum of 300%. There is also an increased chance of Eximus. 
• Respawns: No self revive, Last Gasp penalty (activating Lasp Gasp reduces the timer by 2 seconds), and the bleedout timer shortens after each revive (to a minimum of 5 seconds). 
• Consumables: Summons are disabled for the entire duration of the mission and each type of Restore (all sizes) has a 3 minute cooldown timer applied.

How To Access:
A specific member of the Cavia Syndicate in the Sanctum Anatomica knows how to enter the Anchorhold. Visit them and select the “Enter the Anchorhold” option to begin the hunt for a Netracell. 

A maximum of 5 Netracells can be found and unlocked per week for rewards (resets every Sunday at 0:00 UTC). You can still play the mission after you have completed the weekly allowance, you just won’t receive any rewards for doing so until the next weekly reset. 

How To Play: 
Upon entering the Anchorhold you and your squad will be required to select and carry the four randomized Keyglyphs presented. Each impose their own debilitating burden onto their bearer. 

 

There is no limit to how many Keyglyphs one person can shoulder – coordinate with your squad who will carry which type (and how many) before beginning the search.

Exit the Anchorhold by hacking the terminal located at the bottom of the stairs and begin your search for the Netracell. Terminals are located and marked on the map to help narrow down the search radius, should you require aid. Upon finding the Netracell, the security level needs to be reduced by eliminating the enemy threat before gaining access to open it up. After successfully doing so, the player with the required Keyglyph will need to interact with the console to unlock its doors. 

Collect your hard earned rewards in the Netracell and make your way to Extraction. 

Rewards
Notable rewards for opening a Netracell include:

• Melee Arcanes (more information in the New Melee Arcanes section)
• Melee Arcane Adapter (more information in the Melee Upgrade Segment section)
• Archon Shards (base and Tauforged)
  • Note: Only Crimson, Azure, and Amber Shards are rewarded from Netracells. The new Archon Shard types (Violet, Topaz, and Emerald) created via Coalescent Fusion can only be obtained via the Fusion process at Helminth (learn more in the Archon Shard Expansion: Coalescent Fusion section) 
• Guaranteed: Entrati Lanthorn

Visit the official drop tables for specifics. 

ALCHEMY (ENDLESS) 

Alchemic devices in Albrecht’s Laboratories known as Crucibles allow elemental powers to be wielded and fused into complex forces. The Cavia are is requesting your assistance to ensure they remain operative for a greater goal. 

 

How To Access: 
Select the Cambire node (normal and Steel Path) on Deimos from the Star Chart or from the Laboratory Navigation in the Sanctum Anatomica. 

How To Play:
Crucibles within the Laboratories are capable of mixing complex elements, provided you can supply the elemental forces required. Killed enemies drop Amphors full of Heat, Cold, Toxin, or Electricity. Throw Amphors into the Crucibles to mix the requested complex element to 100%. They can also be lobbed at enemies as concentrated elemental grenades!

Once you have filled it with the required elements, the Crucible will begin its mixing process and a random Crucible Overflow buff will be applied to the squad for the duration of the mix. Ensure the stability of this high powered mixing process by breaking distressed pipes to drop the pressure if it gets too high. 

Rewards
Notable rewards for successfully completing a Crucible include: 

• New Tennokai Mods (more information in the New Heavy Attack System: Tennokai section) 
• Mandonel Components 

Visit the official drop tables for specifics. 

 

ASSASSINATION: THE FRAGMENTED

Ready to go toe-to-toe with something that almost certainly has way more toes than you do? Seek out and destroy The Fragmented, a nightmarish assembly of Murmur fragments. 

 

How To Access: 
Select the Effervo node (default and Steel Path) on Deimos from the Star Chart or from the Laboratory Navigation in the Sanctum Anatomica. 

How To Play:
Seek out an Atropos Probe and inject its serum into a Vitreum to begin scanning. Defend the Vitreum while it scans for Murmur’s Eyes. Prevent the scan from being interrupted by keeping the search radius around the Vitreum clear of enemies. Once Murmur’s Eyes have been exposed, they will become visible to you for a limited amount of time. Collect them quickly before they fade from view. 

Atropos Probes power the Vitreums for a limited amount of time, so once it has been depleted, new Probes and Vitreums must be found to continue the process. Collecting the required amount of Murmur’s Eyes will pinpoint The Fragmented’s location. Upon arrival, you will face off against one of the three variants (Suzerain, Zelator, or Anchorite). Dispatching it will reward you!

Rewards
Notable rewards for successfully defeating The Fragmented include:

• New Mods (more information in the New Mods section below): 
  • Ready Steel
  • Shivering Contagion
  • Precision Intensify
  • Energy Nexus
• New Melee Arcanes (more information in the New Melee Arcanes section below):

MIRROR DEFENSE (ENDLESS) 

The Murmur is staging an attack against Albrecht’s Laboratories! They have pinpointed the Laboratories best defenses against them and it is up to you to protect against the onslaught. 

How To Access: 
Select the Munio node (default and Steel Path) on Deimos from the Star Chart or from the Laboratory Navigation in the Sanctum Anatomica. 

How To Play:
Protect the Vitreum and the Auricle as the enemies alternate their attacks between the two. A rotation is complete once both have been defended. 

Vosphene Glyphs are the key to triggering the Laboratories’ automated security system. Gathering the required amount will bolster the active defense target by surrounding it with offensive turrets. Doing so will also reward 3x Stela (5x on Steel Path).  

Rewards

• New Tome Mods (more on information on these in the New Secondary Weapon Type: Tome section)

ARCHON SHARD EXPANSION: COALESCENT FUSION

Archon Shard technology has been extensively researched in the Albrecht’s Laboratories and has led to the advancement in their capabilities! The process of Coalescent Fusion allows for two Archon Shards to be fused together to create a single Shard that offers a set of new embed bonuses.

Coalescent Fusion Requirements: 

• Helminth Archon Shard Segment: The Blueprint is earned for completing the Veilbreaker Quest. 
• Archon Shards: More than one of various types (base or Tauforged). 
• New Helminth Coalescent Segment: The Blueprint is earned from the Wares & Shiny Treasures vendor in the Sanctum Anatomica.
• Stela: New resource earned from Albrecht’s Laboratories. 

How to unlock Coalescent Fusion: 
The Helminth Coalescent Segment Blueprint can be acquired from the Wares & Shiny Treasures vendor in the Sanctum Anatomica after reaching the Researcher tier with the Cavia Syndicate. Once you have built and claimed it from your Foundry, return to the Helminth Room in your Orbiter to install it.

How to use Coalescent Fusion: 

Step 1. After installing the Segment, interact with the Helminth chair and select the “Archon Shards” button. 

Step 2. Select the new Coalescent Fusion icon located on the right of the Archon Shard embed UI.

 

Step 3. Hover over one of the two slots on screen to select the Archon Shard types you’d like to fuse together. Once both slots are filled, the Shard they will fuse to create will appear in the center. Hover over this Shard to preview the stats and bonuses it offers. 

• Base Archon Shards can only be fused with other base Shards. Likewise, Tauforged Shards can only be fused with Tauforged Shards to create a Tauforged variant.
• To remove an Archon Shard, simply select it again. 

 

Step 4. Select the “Fuse” button to complete the process. 

• Fusion Requirement: 50x Stela for each Fuse. 

You’ve now successfully created a new Fused Archon Shard that can be embedded into your Warframes!

Archon Shard Fusion Types
There are 3 total combinations possible when fusing the different Archon Shards: Violet, Topaz, and Emerald. Each fused Shard has their own set of embed bonuses to choose from:

Violet Archon Shard (Crimson + Azure) 

• Gain +10% (Tauforged: +15%) Ability Damage on enemies affected by Electricity Status. 
• Gain +30% (Tauforged: +45%) Primary Electricity Damage. Gain an additional +10% (Tauforged: +15%) per Crimson, Azure, or Violet Archon Shard equipped.

For the fashion fans out there these new Archon Shards apply to the Shard Hex and Shard Bane Ephemeras!

General Archon Shard Changes: 

• Each Archon Shard type now has its own icon associated with it to help identify them when making selections (primarily for our colorblind Tenno out there!). 
• Reduced Archon Shard removal cost from 50% to 30% Bile. 
• Updated the confirmation pop-up when removing an Archon Shard to specify the exact conditions of its removal:
  • Was: “Are you sure you want to remove the Embedded Archon Shard from this slot? Shard will be refunded and Helminth materials will be consumed.”
  • Now: “Are you sure you want to remove the Embedded Archon Shard from this slot?
    (Shard Name) will be refunded and 30% Bile will be consumed.”
• Hovering over Archon Shards in the embed slots at Helminth will now show their embed bonuses!

ARCANE DISSOLUTION

The Albrecht Laboratory is equipped with devices that can dissolve Arcanes into Vosfor, a potent powder for alchemical processes. It is used to trade for Arcane packs from a vendor in the Sanctum Anatomica! 

The goal of Arcane Dissolution is to provide an alternative way for players to access and acquire the wide range of Arcanes found throughout Warframe. 

 

HOW TO PERFORM ARCANE DISSOLUTION

Step 1: Speak with a vendor in the Sanctum Anatomica and select the “Arcane Dissolution” option to get started. 

Step 2: Select the “Dissolve Arcanes” button 

Step 3: Select the Arcanes you’d like to dissolve. 

• The amount of Vosfor obtained per Arcane is determined by a variety of factors, including its rarity and rank. 
• Note: The list includes Arcanes that are currently equipped –  a warning message will pop-up to inform you if the selected Arcane is equipped. 

Step 4: Once you have chosen the Arcanes you’d like to Dissolve, hit the “Dissolve” button. 

Step 5: Return to the Arcane Dissolution menu to exchange the earned Vosfor for a variety of Arcane packs.  

ARCANE PACKS
The following Arcane Packs can be acquired from a vendor in the Sanctum Anatomica for Vosfor. Each pack is themed based on where their containing Arcanes are acquired. 

Purchasing a pack will randomly reward 3 unranked Arcanes from their list. The possibility of a certain Arcane being selected is based on its rarity and respective drop rates through gameplay means. We want to maintain the integrity of its original acquisition methods in this new alternate way to access them. 

Expand the spoilers to view the full list of Arcanes per pack!

NEW HEAVY ATTACK SYSTEM: TENNOKAI

With the launch of Auto Melee in Abyss of Dagath, we mentioned that we were working on a “Perfect Heavy Attack” system for Whispers in the Walls, and it is officially here! 

Recall the ancient art of Tennokai with new Tennokai Mods for your Melee Weapons. Tennokai is a long-lost melee art form, allowing Tenno to make the most out of their Heavy Attacks. With Tennokai enabled on your Melee weapon, you will have a 15% chance for a symbol to appear while performing a melee attack. If you perform a Heavy Attack while the symbol is active on your reticle, it will trigger a Tennokai Heavy Attack, which has a faster wind-up speed and does not consume any combo counter. 

With this new Tennokai system, there are a variety of Mods that allow you to further customize the frequency and effects of these Tennokai attacks. 

HOW TO ENABLE TENNOKAI:
You can enable Tennokai for your Melee Weapon by equipping any of the new Tennokai Mods onto it. Tennokai Mods can be equipped in your build as normal, or in the new Melee Exilus Slot that is unlocked via the Melee Upgrade Segment acquired upon completion of the Whispers in the Walls Quest. 
 

TENNOKAI MODS

These Mods can be earned from Rotation C of the new Alchemy game mode (Cambire, Deimos) or purchased via the Market in the Essential Tennokai Mod Bundle*. 

*The Market purchase option is not available to players until they have installed the Melee Upgrade Segment (rewarded from completing the Whispers in the Walls Quest).

Stats below are shown at Max Rank. 

Discipline’s Merit
Enables Tennokai. Opportunities occur every 4 melee hits instead of at random.

Dreamer’s Wrath 
Enables Tennokai. Increases opportunity chance by 50% and Heavy Attack critical damage by 32%.

Master’s Edge
Enables Tennokai. Increases Tennokai damage by 60%.

Condition’s Perfection
Enables Tennokai. Increases status chance by +100% on Tennokai Attacks.

Opportunity’s Reach
Enables Tennokai. Increases opportunity window to 4.0s and melee range by 3m for Tennokai attacks. 

Tenno will also receive a basic Tennokai Mod in their Inbox upon completion of The Whispers in the Walls Quest:  

Mentor’s Legacy*
Enables Tennokai. 
*This mod is not tradeable as it is a Quest reward! 
 

MELEE UPGRADE SEGMENT 

Upon completion of the Whispers in the Walls Quest, players will receive a new Melee Upgrade Segment via their in-game Inbox. Installing it will further expand your Melee Arsenal with two new upgrade options:

Melee Exilus Slots
Fuse an Exilus Weapon Adapter into your Melee weapon to unlock the new Melee Exilus Slot. Players will be able to equip the new Tennokai Mods into this slot, as well as the following newly Exilus-compatible Mods: 

• Parry
• Dispatch Overdrive 
• Focused Defense
• Guardian Derision
• Electromagnetic Shielding
• Whirlwind

Melee Arcane Slot
In these new Arcane Slots, players will be able to equip new Melee Arcanes, which have also been released with this update. Players can earn Melee Arcane Adapters via the Wares & Shiny Treasures Vendor in the Cavia Syndicate, Netracells, or by purchasing them in the Market for Platinum*. 

*The Market purchase option is not available to players until the completion of the Whispers in the Walls Quest.

Melee Arcanes and Zaw Arcanes
Like Kitguns, Zaws will offer both a slot for Zaw Arcanes and Melee Arcanes (once Melee Arcanes are unlocked). Zaw Arcanes cannot be used in Melee Arcane Slots, and vice versa.  

NEW MELEE ARCANES

With the new Melee Upgrade Segment, players are now able to install Arcanes into their Melee Weapons. With this Arsenal Expansion, we have added a variety of new Arcanes at the Wares & Shiny Treasures Vendor in the Cavia Syndicate. These Arcanes can also be earned from taking down The Fragmented (Effervo, Deimos), defeating the void-born creature contained in Albrecht’s Grimoire, or by completing Netracell missions. The two Legendary Tier Arcanes (Melee Influence and Melee Crescendo) are exclusive to Netracells. 

The stats below are shown at Max Rank. 

Melee Animosity
On Melee Hit: Gain 42% Critical Chance on your next Heavy Attack, up to 420%. 

Melee Duplicate (Legendary)
On Base Critical Hits: 100% chance for your attack to strike a second time. 
*Base Critical Hits (yellow by default) are all critical hits that are not “big” (orange by default) or “super” (red by default). 

Melee Retaliation
Gain 30% Melee Damage for every 200 current Shields, up to 420%. Bonus halved for Overshields.

Melee Exposure

NEW PLAYER PATH IMPROVEMENTS

We’ve tackled New Player Path improvements from a variety of angles, and we’ll go over these adjustments point-by-point:

• Main Quest Path Restructuring
• Junction Task Changes
• Rising Tide Quest Improvements
• Mastery Rank Requirements for Progression

MAIN QUEST PATH RESTRUCTURING
The story that has guided players throughout their journey in Warframe has evolved throughout the years — to put it lightly. Quests lead players to meet the fantastic cast of characters spread throughout the Origin System, but also introduce them to various mechanics that enhance and deepen their gameplay experience. With that said, we have restructured our Quest Path to ensure that players meet the vital NPCs and are set up for success to take on The New War. 

Quests removed from the Main Quest Path

• Stolen Dreams
• The New Strange

With these Quests no longer considered Main Quests, applicable Junctions have had their tasks updated to no longer require these Quests — see the Junction Requirement Changes section for more details. 

Quests added to the Main Quest Path

• Heart of Deimos 
• Rising Tide 

Saya’s Vigil was added as a Main Quest with Abyss of Dagath in October 2023, and we intend to give Vox Solaris the same treatment in 2024. Before we do so, we will be revisiting this Quest’s difficulty level to ensure it is new player friendly. 

Here is the updated Main Quest Path as of December 2023:

1. Awakening
2. Vor’s Prize
3. Saya’s Vigil
4. Once Awake
5. Heart of Deimos
6. The Archwing
7. Natah
8. The Second Dream
9. Rising Tide
10. The War Within
11. Chains of Harrow
12. Apostasy Prologue
13. The Sacrifice
14. Prelude to War
15. The New War
16. Whispers in the Walls

With these changes, we have updated our in-game Tenno Guide to prioritize Main Quests when directing players what to do next. Our goal is to reduce player confusion and simplify their progression path — by de-prioritizing Side Quests, players are less likely to embark on Quests that may be too difficult for their current progression or otherwise serve as a distraction.

Tenno who are interested in completing Side Quests will still have access to those unlocked in their Codex! Once players have completed all Main Quests (at time of writing, up to Whispers in the Walls), the Tenno Guide will recommend any incomplete Side Quests. 

JUNCTION TASK CHANGES
Junctions are a great way for players to learn about new systems in Warframe and offer a guided path throughout the Origin System — but they can also be a frustration point if the tasks are too hard or unclear. With that in mind, we have made the following adjustments to our Junctions:

Venus Junction:
Added Orokin Reactor to Junction Rewards

• While players have access to Orokin Reactors via Nightwave, we want to introduce a guaranteed way for new players to receive this upgrade as they continue to improve their Arsenal. 

Mercury Junction:
Removed “Defeat 5 Eximus Enemies” task. 

Mars Junction:
Removed Tasks: 

• Defeat 150 Frontier enemies on Earth.
• Complete Suisei on Mercury
  • In the early days of Warframe, the Junction Path encouraged players to clear all of a planet’s nodes before advancing to the next planet. Tasks that ask players to hunt a specific enemy type or clear a node that’s distant from the main Junction path reflect that goal. We now want to encourage players to stay on the main path to advance through the main quests and then clear nodes when they are interested in Steel Path.

Adjusted number of Rubedo needed for “Collect 250 Rubedo in missions” task. 

• Task originally required 500 Rubedo. 
• Rubedo has a low spawn-rate on Earth. This Junction task was designed to make players clear all of Earth before moving on to Mars. They can move on more quickly now while still having a light intro to Resources.

Phobos Junction:
Removed Tasks: 

• Defeat 150 enemies in a single mission on Mars
  • There are already so many strength tests on Mars from Relic missions to the Heart of Deimos quest. We no longer felt this strength test was necessary.
• Scan 1 Cephalon Fragment on Mars
  • This Junction Task was meant to be an introduction to Codex Scanners, but the Saya’s Vigil quest now provides a formal introduction to Scanners, so we no longer felt this task was necessary.

Moved “Refine a Void Relic once at the console in your Orbiter” task to Phobos Junction.

• This task originally was in the Ceres Junction, but we have moved it to Phobos Junction to keep all Relic tasks in one place. 

Added Orokin Catalyst to Junction Rewards.

• Similarly to the Reactor, this gives new players a guaranteed path to this important upgrade in their Arsenal. 

Ceres Junction:
Removed Tasks:

• Defeat Lt Lech Kril at War on Mars
  • In the early days of Warframe, bosses like Lt Lech Kril were a staple of the Warframe experience, and we worried new players would be out of the loop if they didn’t experience them on their way to The Second Dream. Today, however, there is a lot of new content players are eager to experience, so we no longer feel new players will be left out if they choose not to fight Lt Lech Kril at this stage.
• Defeat 300 Arid Grineer enemies on Mars
  • As mentioned above, this task encourages players to clear all of a planet’s nodes before advancing to the next planet, which is no longer the goal of the Junction Path.
• Refine a Void Relic once at the console in your Orbiter. (Moved to Phobos Junction)

Added “Complete Quest: Heart of Deimos” task.

• This allows players to build a relationship with the Entrati, and gets them on the path to building their Necramech for The New War Quest. 

Europa Junction:

• Removed “Complete Quest: Stolen Dreams” task.
  • Stolen Dreams is now a side Quest and therefore isn’t vital for the new player path!

Saturn Junction:

• Removed “Complete Quest: The New Strange” task.
  • The New Strange is now a side Quest and therefore isn’t vital for the new player path!

Uranus Junction:

• Removed “Craft a weapon requiring Mastery Rank 1 or higher” task.
  • Our primary goal with these changes is to decouple Mastery Rank from the Main Quest experience. That way new players can advance all the way to Whispers in the Walls without worrying about the 24-hour Mastery Rank Timer. To that end, all Junction Tasks that relate to Mastery Rank have been removed.

Neptune Junction:

• Removed “Open a Cache during any Sabotage mission on Uranus” task.
  • Searching for Caches in Sabotage missions is taught via Nightwave now, so we are removing this to reduce overall grind.

Adjusted “Complete a mission on Uranus with only your Melee weapon equipped” task.

• This task originally required a player to do so 5 times, now they must only do it once!

Pluto Junction:
Removed tasks:

• Defeat the Hyena Pack at Psamathe on Neptune
  • As with Lt Lech Kril mentioned above, we no longer feel new players will be left out if they choose not to fight the Hyena Pack at this stage.
• Complete a Corpus Spy mission with 3 successful data extractions on Neptune
  • We no longer feel a player must master Spy Missions at this stage in order to advance along the Main Quest Path. Players may instead choose to sharpen their Spy Mission skills when they pursue Nightwave, the Steel Path, or Ivara Blueprints!

Sedna Junction:
Removed tasks:

• Defeat Vay Hek at Oro on Earth
  • As with Lt Lech Kril and the Hyena Pack mentioned above, we no longer feel new players will be left out if they choose not to fight Vay Hek at this stage.
• Collect 1 Exilus Mod from any Orokin Principle challenge room on Lua
• The “Ascendant” Nightwave Act teaches players about these puzzles on Lua, so we chose to remove it from the Junction path.
  • Craft a weapon requiring Mastery Rank 5 or higher
  • Our primary goal with these changes is to decouple Mastery Rank from the Main Quest experience. That way new players can advance all the way to Whispers in the Walls without worrying about the 24-hour Mastery Rank Timer. To that end, all Junction Tasks that relate to Mastery Rank have been removed.

Adjusted “Defeat 2 Sentient enemies on Lua” task.

• Originally required players to defeat 5 Sentients. Only 2 spawn per Lua mission, so this reduces the grind needed to complete this task. 

Add “Complete Quest: Rising Tide” task.

• The other removed tasks allow players more time to focus on this new Quest requirement, which arms them with a Railjack for The New War.  

RISING TIDE QUEST IMPROVEMENTS

While Rising Tide has seen improvements over the years with the goal of reducing the overall grind, we have still heard complaints from the community about its overall difficulty for less experienced players. Since this Quest is now a required part of the Main Quest Path, we have made some adjustments to ensure it matches the expected player progression between The Second Dream and The War Within.

Starting the Quest
Players will no longer need to purchase the Railjack Cephalon Blueprint from the Market to trigger this Quest. Now, once The Second Dream is complete, players will be able to start Rising Tide in their Codex. Upon doing so, the Railjack Cephalon Blueprint will be delivered to them directly via an Inbox Message. 

Quest Mission Changes:
These changes apply to all Rising Tide recovery missions with the goal of reducing overall difficulty for players.

• Removed solo-only requirement for these missions to allow players to squad up with a friend or matchmake with fellow Tenno. 
• Reduced the spawn rate of enemies by half, and added a random stagger to spawn frequency so that players were not dealing with large waves of enemies at once.   
• Slightly reduced the scanning beacon objective radius to make defending it easier.  
• Enemies within the radius of the scanning beacon will now be marked with a red waypoint to help players identify who to target. 
• Reduced the frequency of Cephalon Cy’s voice lines when the scanner perimeter is breached.

MASTERY RANK REQUIREMENTS FOR PROGRESSION 

Right now, Mastery Rank timers make it impossible for new players to advance to the War Within until 120 real world hours have passed due to their time gating. Our goal is for new players to be able to catch up with their Tenno friends over the course of a weekend. To that end, we have removed Mastery Rank from the Main Quest Path, which includes Junctions.

Mastery Rank requirements remain for Side Quests like The Deadlock Protocol, more advanced gameplay systems like Rivens, and features like trading. 

Astute Tenno will also have noticed that The War Within quest implicitly locked late-game content behind Mastery Rank 5, because you needed to be Mastery Rank 5 to complete Sedna Junction and unlock The War Within quest. We still want to prevent new players from diving into late-game content too quickly, so in lieu of The War Within Mastery Rank prerequisite, we have deliberately added a Mastery Rank 5 prerequisite to certain experiences:

• Kuva Liches and Sisters of Parvos now require players to have completed The War Within and be Mastery Rank 5.
• Kuva Siphon Missions now require players to have completed The War Within and be Mastery Rank 5.
• Sorties now require players to have completed The War Within and be Mastery Rank 5.

We also removed the Mastery Rank 2 requirement for Natah.

• We already removed the scanning requirement to start this Quest, but now we are reducing further friction by removing the Mastery Rank requirement outright. 

Added Mastery Rank 3 requirement for Waverider.

• This is so as not to distract new players from their Main Quest Path, as this Quest originally became available to them upon completing Vox Solaris. 

Misc. Quest Changes:

• Baro’s arrival inbox message will no longer appear while playing the Vor’s Prize Quest.
• Reduced build time for the Personal Quarters segment from 12 hours to 1 hour.
  • This Segment is required to access the Apostasy Quest, so reducing the wait time aligns with our goal of reducing overall friction to complete the Main Story Quests. 
• Added a new pop-up message directing players to equip Kinetic Siphon Traps when attempting to start “Capture Manifestations” missions in the Chains of Harrow Quest.
  • “You must equip Kinetic Siphon Traps in your Gear Wheel to play this mission. To purchase them, visit Cephalon Simaris in any Relay and explore his Offerings at the console behind him to his right”. 
  • Ordis originally offered gentle guidance for the players to acquire them, but we felt more specific instruction was helpful here for those attempting to venture forward unprepared. 

ARCHGUN DEPLOYER: HEAVY WEAPON CHANGES

With the various buffs and adjustments we’ve made to Warframe weapons over the years, a common question we see in response is “but what about Archguns?”. These Heavy Weapons are meant to be heavy-hitters, but arguably have been overshadowed by the Primary and Secondary guns in your Arsenal. To address this feedback, we have made the following changes:

ON-DEPLOY OVERGUARD BUFF
Upon using an Archgun Deployer, players will now gain 2000 Overguard. 

• Effect has a 60s cooldown. 
• The Overguard gain is capped at 2000, so re-deploying your Archgun after the cooldown resets will refresh your Overguard up to the 2000 cap. 

HEAVY WEAPON BUFFS
Overall, most Heavy Weapons (a.k.a. Archguns when used via the Archgun Deployer) have had their damage doubled. Some of the Archguns have also received buffs to their Archwing version, which we will indicate below. 

Archgun Damage Resistance

Before we get into the stats, we have added a 50% Archgun Damage Resistance to the Profit Taker. Since these weapons have had their damage buffed, this resistance keeps these fights to the same difficulty as before.

• Exceptions: The Kuva Grattler, Grattler, Mausolon and Kuva Ayanga have unique Damage Resistance values when used against the Profit Taker. These are adjusted to keep their damage output the same against these foes — as these weapons did not have their damage doubled, the amount of damage resistance is balanced to account for their buffs. 
• Corvas Prime’s damage stats were untouched so we did not implement Damage Resistance for this weapon.
• The Orowyrm also received a 50% Damage Reduction against the Imperator to balance against its buffs. 

Heavy Weapon Stat Changes
Note: these apply only to Archgun Deployer versions of these weapons unless otherwise specified.

  • To refresh your memory, in the Abyss of Dagath update we added the ability to hover over the HUD buff icons and read their descriptions.

• Added a “Enable Ordis Orbiter Transmissions” toggle in the Audio settings. 
  • In Hotfix 34.0.4, Ordis’ transmissions were added to the “Enable Hint Transmissions” toggle but it is best suited as its own option to give players more ways to adjust their audio preferences. Be sure to check your Audio settings to enable/disable those toggles to your liking!

CHANGES

Enemy Voidrig Necramech Changes: 

These Entrati war machines have proven that they are fierce opponents, but fighting against them with their high power level requirements can feel like a bit of a trudge, which in turn also made them rather difficult for less experienced players to defeat. 

Since these foes are critical targets to earn your very own Necramech, the following changes have been made to Voidrigs (both Albrecht’s Laboratories and Isolation Vaults) to improve the combat experience for all! 

• Voidrigs can now take damage anywhere (with damage attenuation) instead of just their weak points. Targeting their weak points will now deal increased damage!
  • This change is already live as it accidentally went out with Abyss of Dagath. The intention of the change was to make the fight much less taxing, while still maintaining some benefit to focusing attacks at their weak spots. Since they are now susceptible to all attack points, damage attenuation (maximum damage per instance and per second caps) was added to maintain a level of difficulty and prevent them from being one-shot. Enemy Bonewidows will receive the same treatment in a future update.  
• Updated the look of their weak points to better highlight them – they now appear as vials filled with a liquid substance that can be targeted and destroyed. 
• Removed its Shields and slightly increased its Health. 
• Voidrig ability changes: 
  • Storm Shroud now deals Electricity Damage and Status Effect in a short range. A sound effect will now play when it is cast to help communicate the incoming danger.
  • Reduced the range at which Voidrig will cast Gravemines. 
  • Improved the general readability of enemy Voidrig abilities to help players telegraph their attacks: 
  • Added VFX at the front of Voidrigs during their slide attack to communicate the damage width more clearly. 
  • Added VFX to the Gravemines’ explosions to improve visibility of the grenades and their travel range. 
  • Improved readability of Necraweb’s VFX when the canister is thrown and explodes. Also improved visibility of the explosion area in which players would be slowed.
• Improved the way Voidrigs aim at players – in other words they will now aim their guns at you more accurately. 
• Made several tweaks to their ambient noises. 

Helminth Changes: 

• Added the ability to contribute the following resources to Bile Secretions:
  • Hemocyte Cystoliths
  • Enigma Gyrum
  • Kullervo’s Bane
  • Ariette Scale
  • Rune Marrow
  • Aggristone
  • Vainthorn
• Added the ability to contribute the following resources to Biotics Secretions:
  • Connla Sprout
  • Eevani
  • Kovnik
  • Dracroot
  • Ueymag
  • Yao Shrub
  • Silphsela
  • Tasoma Extract
• Added the ability to contribute the remaining Duviri resources to the following Secretions. 
  • Saggen Pearl (Synthetics)
  • Lamentus (Pheromones)
  • Maw Fang (Oxides)
  • Nacreous Pebble (Calx)

Nightwave Changes: 
Nightwave will now recover Permanent Weekly Acts that weren’t finished in previous weeks, allowing you to collect any missed Standing starting the next rotation. Read the official PSA for a full recap on the events that lead to this change.

Additionally, Permanent Weekly Acts are now numbered. Players can differentiate between new weeks and weeks you’ve missed. 

 

For example, if you missed two weeks of “Not a Warning Shot” at the start of Nightwave, the third week will have “Not a Warning Shot III,” with “Not a Warning Shot I” and “Not a Warning Shot II” being recoverable. This change will occur next week, the current rotation will maintain the previous naming conventions until then.

General Nightwave Changes: 

• Updated “The Hunt Is On” Nightwave Act’s description for clarity on challenge requirements: 
  • Was: Find X Syndicate Medallions as a squad. 
  • Now: Find X Syndicate Medallions. You can search by yourself or with a squad. 

Mirage Eclipse Changes:
Tenno who are familiar with Mirage’s ability Eclipse know how temperamental it can be. Areas that look light are actually dark and vice versa, which can make it rather difficult to know how much of a bonus the ability is actually giving you at any moment. 

To address this issue, the HUD icon for Eclipse will now continuously update to show an accurate and responsive state of what effect Mirage is currently getting, rather than just showing the maximum values from standing in light or dark. We have also updated the HUD icons with names to distinguish which buff is being given: 

• Low light environments = Lunar Eclipse
• Bright light environments = Solar Eclipse 

This at least gives us (and you) a better tool to measure what Eclipse is really doing. 

 

With this update we started assessing how inconsistent and frustrating this ability was, and noticed a variety of problems: it didn’t work properly on the Plains of Eidolon and, super relevant for this update, it didn’t work at all with the new lighting technology in Albrecht’s Laboratories! 

We are still considering what we can do to make this ability better in the long term. Stay tuned for further changes on Eclipse.
 

General Changes:

• Hovering your reticle over explosive barrels will now show its explosion radius! 
• Narmer Bounties are now always available on both Venus and Earth, regardless of what time of day it is on the Plains of Eidolon!
  • Prior to this change, Narmer Bounties on the Plains of Eidolon would only appear during the day cycle and Orb Vallis during the night cycle. Instead of waiting 150 minutes for the cycle to switch and to gain access to the bounty-exclusive rewards, you can now play them at any time! 
• Daily Tribute reward scaling is now capped at 3000 days. This is a preemptive measure! The first time 3000 days can be hit will be in March 2024. 
  • The Daily Tribute system was first introduced in Update 18.0 (2015-12-03) and if you’ve been around long enough to hit day 3000 in 2024, thanks for sticking with us! Ultimately, we want to ensure the longevity of this system by proactively putting in measures that prevent an unbalanced reward system caused by indefinite scaling.  
  • Players will continue to receive rewards beyond this milestone (and the day counter in the UI will still update by day), but the scaling for the following rewards (listed below) will no longer increase past the 3000 day multiplier. 
    • Credits
    • Endo
    • Affinity Booster 
    • Credit Booster
    • Resource Booster
    • Resource Drop Chance Booster
    • Resources
    • Forma Blueprint
• Reduced the duration of Magnetic Status Effects when applied to players from 6 to 3 seconds and decreased the total Energy drain from 120 to 90. 
  • In addition to general feedback on Magnetic Damage being a bit harsh, the new tileset has many Magnetic Damage sources so the following changes were made to ensure it still had an impact without becoming unmanageable. 
• To address severe performance issues caused by the unlimited amount of Status Effects stacks that could be transferred by Contagion Bond, we have added a 100x stacks total cap to the Mod. 
• Enemies can still be inflicted with Status Effect stacks even after hitting this cap. In other words, if 100x stacks have been transferred to an enemy from Contagion Mod, they can still receive more stacks from different sources. 
• The following items can now be purchased for Platinum in the in-game Market: 
  • Veiled Riven Cipher 
  • Primary Arcane Adapter 
  • Secondary Arcane Adapter
  • Melee Arcane Adapter 
• Hovering over Warframe color channels in the Arsenal will now highlight the associated area! 
• Added a message to the end of mission screen when a key-based mission (e.g. Abyssal Zone) failed due to the key-owner quitting or disconnecting: “Owner of the mission key left the squad.” 
• Increased the Starting Energy of the following Prime Warframes so that they have higher Energy Capacity compared to their base version: 
  • Grendel Prime from 100 to 115
  • Inaros Prime from 50 to 75 
  • Ivara Prime from 75 to 100 
  • Khora Prime from 75 to 100 
  • Limbo Prime from 100 to 125
  • Nidus Prime from 50 to 75 
  • Titania Prime from 100 to 125 
• Updated the Daily Special purchase message at Legs to indicate that Moas use Sentinel Weapons. It will now indicate if a player does not own a Sentinel Weapon to use with their new Moa.
  • “You do not own any compatible weapons for this Moa. Moas share ranged weapons with Sentinels, these weapons are included when Sentinels are purchased or built in the Foundry. Are you sure you want to purchase this Moa?”
• Removed the Tomb Guardian from the list of spawnable enemies in the Simulacrum.
• Since these enemies split into smaller versions of themselves upon defeat, they could result in a large number of foes spawned into the Simulacrum, leading to performance issues or crashes.
• Updated buff description for Nova’s Escape Velocity Augment Mod to specify “Movement Speed” instead of just “Speed”. Now reads:
  • “Increased Movement Speed after traveling through Worm Hole.” 
• The Gear Wheel now displays your respective Hot Key binding on the actual item instead of the description when opening the Gear Wheel.
• Added on-hover tooltips to Mods with unique effects. Mods with a special mechanic will now appear bolded in its description indicating that you can hover over it to learn more about it. This applies to the following (not exhaustive): 
  • Syndicate Mods (Justice, Truth, Entropy, Blight, Purity, Sequence) 
  • The new Tennokai Mods
  • Mods that grant Overguard 
• Reduced the delay that could occur between using a Riven Cipher and witnessing the Unveiling visual effects. 
• Primary and Secondary Arcane descriptions now indicate that you require a Primary or Secondary Arcane Adapter in order to install said Arcane. 
• Updated the Veiled Riven Cipher’s description to better explain its usage:
  • Was: “Identify a Veiled Riven.”
  • Now: “Use this cipher to instantly complete one Veiled Riven Challenge at the cost of consuming the cipher.”
• Renamed “Secondary Fire” in the Controls settings to “Alternate Fire” to unify naming with Weapon and Mod descriptions
• Sentinels will now only be Highlighted with Character Highlights if the “Self Highlight” option is toggled on. 
  • Previously, Sentinels would be affected by Ally Highlights regardless of the Self Highlight toggle. Since Sentinels hover over the Warframe’s shoulder, we now consider them to be an extension of the “Self” for the purposes of the Character Highlighting system. 
• You can now unlock Waverider Challenges in any mission, not just Open Zones, if you have Yareli equipped and Merulina unlocked.
• Cobra and Crane’s passive interaction with Baruuk (the first strike of this weapon will put enemies to sleep) now respects enemy CC immunity (Eximus, Bosses, Overguard, etc.).
• Increased Garv’s armor in Cambion Drift Bounties to improve his survivability. 
• The crystal fractals on Citrine’s Crystallize will now disappear more quickly to reduce overall visual clutter. This does not impact the duration of the Crystalline Growths on foes — we simply adjusted the ability effects where they search out foes.
• Added sound effect to opening the Arcane Segment in the Orbiter and when equipping Arcanes. 

OPTIMIZATIONS

  • We had attempted to fix this in Hotfix 34.0.6, but it ultimately required a code fix which has been included in this update!
• Fixed Affinity gained from killing enemies with Voruna’s Ulfrun’s Descent applying to the whole loadout, instead of to Voruna exclusively as intended (all Affinity gained from ability kills go to Warframe).

• Fixed opening the pause menu while Transferring into the Orowyrm causing the player camera to detach from the Orowyrm.
• Fixed Clients using Transference right as they get teleported to the next Circuit Stage getting teleported to the Circuit “Waiting Room” instead. 
• Fixed Xaku’s Grasp of Lohk being able to kill enemies through doors.

• Fixed Slingshotting into Corpus Ships in Railjack missions causing instant mission failure.
• Fixed Magus Aggress charges being unintentionally consumed by Companion attacks.

• Fixed cases of Tusk Thumpers on the Plains of Eidolon becoming invulnerable.
• Fixed certain multishot alt-fire attacks, namely from the Arum Spinosa and Quassus, dealing unintentionally high damage to Archons.

• Fixed a bug where auto-melee was preventing players from throwing throwable objects, such as Thermia Canisters, with their Melee equipped.

• Fixed Host and Clients experiencing performance issues caused by Kubrow with the Duplex Bond Mod and a Collar equipped.

• Duplex Bond Clones now inherit your Companion’s Energy color. 
• Updated the “Animator” Nightwave Act’s descriptions: 
  • General:  “Look for Ayatan Treasures for Maroo in Maroo’s Bazaar.”

  • How To: “Visit Maroo in Maroo’s Bazaar on Mars. Ask her about Ayatan Treasures and she will send you on a mission to retrieve one. You can socket Ayatan Stars into Sculptures by clicking the Ayatan Treasures button in the Mods workbench. Stars are uncommon items found in containers, while Sculptures are hidden items to search out during missions.”
    • The previous description was still using the pre-Abyss of Dagath “Fully socket 3 Ayatan Sculptures” version. 
• Slightly reduced the VFX of Aerial Bond’s cold field.
• Improved Duviri “Hidden Chest” objective flow to address various issues caused by Host Migrations, objective abandonment, Host / Client desync, and more. While players may not see any gameplay changes on their end, our goal with this update is to remove cases where the Chest was unable to be opened.

Fixes: 

• Fixed Clans who had raised/lowered their Clan tier before Hotfix 34.0.7 having tech research costs in the negative. For players who were unable to craft the Infested Catalyst Blueprint for Plague Star due to this bug, you should now be able to contribute the tier-appropriate amount! 
  • Resources and Credits that were contributed to research while it was in the negative have been refunded into the Clan Vault! Note that only Clans who were still in the negative prior to this hotfix will receive the refund. For Clans who contributed back up to positive values prior to the hotfix, you can submit a ticket to support.warframe.com (be sure to use the Clan/Dojo category).

• Source: Digital Extremes

Companion Changes & Fixes: 

• Contagious Bond: Enemies inflicted by damage over time Status Effects will now spread 50% of the tick damage when killed to other enemies.
  • Prior to this change, damage over time procs would only tick 1 damage on enemies it spread to. Now, it’ll apply 50% (at max rank) of the tick damage originating from the killed enemy. 
• The following Companion Precept Mods now benefit from Manifold Bond: 
  • Diriga’s Electro Pulse 
  • Djinn’s Fatal Attraction 
    • The ability cooldown effect from Manifold Bond already applied to Fatal Attraction, but not its Status Effect application to Companion weapons, so now it properly and wholly benefits from the Mod. 
• Djinn’s Fatal Attraction will no longer cause affected enemies to focus fire solely on Djinn after they’ve been lured. 
  • Prior to this change, Djinn could get incapacitated very quickly after luring. Now enemies will return to their default targeting after being lured to help keep the little guy alive after doing his job. 
• Fixed enemies killed by Contagious Bond’s spread Status Effects not granting Affinity. 
• Fixed damage dealt to enemies from Contagious Bond’s spread Status Effects not registering for other Companion mod triggers (e.g. Energy Generator, Synth Deconstruct, etc.).

• Fixed Clients receiving self-damage while shooting the Furis in Incarnon Form inside of a bullet attractor field (notably Xaku’s Whisper). 
• Fixed raising/lowering Clan tier not properly adjusts the Research costs of active research resulting in zero/negative values.
• Fixed getting a “Reconfiguration could not be completed. Your account has not been charged. Please try again later” error when quickly cycling a Riven back to back. 
• Fixed the Energy numbers in the Railjack HUD and Tactical Map displaying incorrectly.
• Fixed the “Incarnon Upgrade Available” Orbiter pop-up occurring when you already have all of the Incarnon’s upgrades unlocked.  

• Additional notes: none.
• Source: Digital Extremes

Changes: 

• You can now sort your Friends list by “PLATFORM”. 
• Replaced an outdated Hydroid ability tip with a new one for Plunder: “Casting Plunder removes any Corrosive Status Effects currently affecting enemies, permanently reducing their maximum Armor based on the Corrosive Status removed.”
• Replaced one of Voruna’s ability tips with a new one for Shroud of Dynar: “Shroud of Dynar’s buff will only be extended if you earn a Melee kill within 3 seconds of exiting invisibility. Be precise and strike true.” 

Fixes: 

• Fixed Voruna’s Shroud of Dynar invisibility breaking permanently after attacking with Ulfrun’s Descent. 
  • With this fix, its intended function has been restored to break invisibility briefly during the lunge and then reapply. 
• Fixed the damage multiplier HUD tracker for Voruna’s Ulfrun’s Descent not updating properly for Clients. 
• Fixed getting staggered (as Client) by the shockwaves created by Companions with Seismic Bond equipped. 
• Fixed enemies with Overguard being pulled by Magus Anomaly. 
  • Enemies with Overguard are immune to crowd control abilities/effects, and should not be affected by Magus Anomaly until after Overguard has been removed. 
• Fixed Air Support Charges appearing in the Foundry during Vor’s Prize. 
  • These should only appear in the Foundry once you are in the possession of the Landing Craft Foundry Segment. 
• Fixed Fired Up’s description stating it was dealing 0% Heat Damage on weapon per hit at Rank 0, instead of the intended 0.8%. 
• Fixed Friends list not updating after adding/removing/denying Friends if accessed from the notification bar while in Navigation. 
• Fixed the “Rank Up!” pop-up occurring for each of the Sentinel clones created by Duplex Bond, even if your Sentinel’s weapons were already Rank 30. 
• Fixed the Waverider Comic zooming out and not being readable after hitting the “Select” button while using a controller.
• Fixed script error in customized UI themes. 

• Additional notes: none.

Changes:

• Enemies affected by the Slash proc from Voruna’s Ulfrun’s Descent attacks and then killed by it will now trigger the Health Orb drop chance from her Lycath’s Hunt ability.
• Changed Astral Bond to increase your Companion’s attack damage and grant a smaller amount of Void Damage. The intention is to have the Mod be more well-rounded for combat instances where Void damage wouldn’t necessarily be required. The intention is to have the Mod more well-rounded for all combat where Void damage wouldn’t necessarily be the focus. In cases where it would be (Eidolon Hunts), the idea is to maintain Operator/Drifter as the primary active means of stripping away their damage resistances.
  • Was: Damage dealt by Operator or Drifter grants 120% Void Damage to your Companion’s attacks for 10s. Companion Void Damage adds +30% Amp and Energy Efficiency to Operator or Drifter for 5s.
  • Now: Damage dealt by Operator or Drifter grants 60% damage and 30% Void Damage to your Companion’s attacks for 10s. Companion Void Damage adds +30% Amp and Energy Efficiency to Operator or Drifter for 5s.
• Removed the breathing sounds that play when Dagath’s Grave Spirit is active. The ASMR tingles were too much to handle.
• Made various adjustments to Dagath’s unarmed Agile and Noble animations audio mix and added a new sound to play between her Kaithe Rakhali’s neighing.
• Made audio mix adjustments to Dagath’s vocal cast sounds.
• Warframe idle sound effects will no longer be muted while in Vendor screens.
• Adjusted Zephyr and Zephyr Prime’s movement speeds so that she doesn’t walk abnormally slow in non-combat areas (Orbiter, Relays, etc.).

Cross Platforms Clans & Alliance Fixes:

• Fixed the “Add Friend” and “Invite to Clan” options missing from the chat menu for Cross Platform players.
• Fixed being unable to add a Cross Platform player when entering their alias with their numeric suffix (e.g. VorsFanGirl#453).
  • Note: The Alias # suffix is not required to send Cross Platform Friend requests. Entering an alias without the # will pull up a list to select from if that alias is on multiple platforms.
• Fixed being unable to place Decorations in empty Cross Platform Dojo Rooms that previously had decorations in it.
• Fixed several issues caused by attempting to and failing to remove Decorations in Cross Platform Dojos.
• Live since Tuesday with Hotdrop
  • Fixed being the “Enable Cross Platform Alliance” option not working.
  • Fixed accepting Cross Platform Clan requests failing.

Fixes:

• Fixed Dagath’s Wyrd Scythes causing enemies that are crowd control immune to move in ultra slow-motion. Jackal (Circuit and Fossa Assasination) was noticeably affected by this as it slowed the fight down to a point where it could not be completed.
• Fixed Tenacious Bond not considering Hunter Synergy’s Critical Chance-Link buff for determining if a Companion’s Critical Chance is over the 50% Threshold.
• Fixed the Combo increase from Tandem Bond (“Companion melee hits increase your Combo by 6”) being affected by additional Melee Combo Chance sources (e.g. Quickening, Exodia Triumph, etc.).
  • As noted in the Mod’s description, Tandem Bond is intended to have a fixed Combo increase of 6 originating from your Companion’s melee hits, not your own.  
• Fixed Viral Quills quill launch ability not triggering Mystic Bond’s “Companion uses Abilities with cooldowns 5 times” condition.
• Fixed the “Kill X Eximus with the weapon’s Incarnon Form” challenge for the Laetum/Phenmor/Felarx resetting even after completion.

• Fixed the travel distance of Protea’s roll being cut short while rolling in succession.
• Fixed the Magistar Incarnon’s Crushing Verdict buff HUD icon appearing as a black square.
• Fixed Host crashing if they initiated the Zariman elevator extraction but then were not in the elevator when the timer expired. Also fixed extraction timer starting immediately after Host migrated via the elevator and new Host spawned into it.
  • The Host will now be teleported back into the elevator when the timer they initiated has expired.
• Fixed Rhino, Khora, Mirage, and Mesa Prime in the Conclave using their PVE stats.
• Fixed a script error in Grendel’s Feast.

Cross Platform Friends, Clans, and Alliances have arrived! 

You can now add Friends and Clan/Alliance members from other Platforms. For each, there are steps to take in order to enable these Cross Platform features: 

• Friends: Provided Cross Platform Play is enabled, you can now freely add friends from other Platforms. 
• Clans: While the existing “Cross Platform Play” toggle is ON by default for players, a Clan’s Founding Warlord must enable it using the new “Enable Cross Platform Clan” setting from the Clan Management page (which is off by default). 
• Alliances: Located in the Alliance Management Menu, enabling Cross Platform Alliances works the same way as enabling Cross Platform Clans via their management page. 

Read all of the details on Cross Platform Friends, Clans, and Alliances here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1369734-live-now-cross-platform-friends-clansalliances/

NOTE: To ensure there are no issues player-side with Cross Platform Friends, we highly encourage you to wait until after you have downloaded this hotfix to add new friends. Your Friends list will also appear empty until then. We will be watching for any Cross Platform related issues and reports – thank you! 

Nintendo Switch-Specific Change:

• Returned the Motion Blur toggle in Video options. This is Off by default as it has a minor performance cost.
  • As part of the Enhanced Graphics Engine launch with Abyss of Dagath on Switch, this setting was removed as it affects performance. After reviewing feedback, we have returned it to allow Switch Tenno to toggle it on/off as desired to allow for more control over FPS on their console. 

Changes:

• We have temporarily removed Riven Challenges with reset conditions from Riven generation, as we continue to investigate the issue of them continuously resetting even after completion (read more on that in the respective PSA). Any existing Unveiled Rivens with these challenges have had them replaced with their non-conditional version, for example: “Kill X enemies without being detected” is now “Kill X enemies”. The following two challenges in particular had their own unique issues, and have both been replaced with “Get X headshots”. 
  • Get X headshots in a single aim glide. 
  • Get X kills in a row while wall dashing or wall clinging without touching the floor. 
• Aerial Bond can now be triggered by kills done by AOE weapons. 
• The 25s cooldown on Dagath’s Grave Spirit ability will no longer trigger if it is deactivated by anything other than a lethal hit (ex: falling out of bounds, getting nullified by enemies, transitioning between Elite Sanctuary Onslaught Data-Conduits, etc.).  
• Added a warning message if you attempt to buy the “Today’s Special” MOA Companion but you don’t own any weapons that it could use. 
• Added the video preview of Hydroid’s new “Plunder” ability in his Ability screen. 

Audio Changes & Fixes:

• Added sound effect for dropping off a Defixio at the Extraction point in the Abyssal Zone mission. 
• Added sound effect when unveiling a Riven. 
• Adjusted the audio mix for the Abyssal Zone mission. 
• Ordis’ Orbiter transmissions can now be enabled/disabled via the “Enable Hint Transmission” toggle in the Audio options. 
• Muted all Warframe idle sounds from players out of sight to reduce audio congestion in hubs (Towns, Relays, etc.). 
• Reduced the volume of Styanax’ Rally Point and Final Stand Abilities to save your ears when casting them frequently. 
• Fixed subtitle issues for some of Ordis’ idle and Hombask’s Zariman Mobile Defense transmissions.
   

Fixes:

• Fixed the in-mission Resource Booster in endless Steel Path Void Fissure missions exceeding the max intended 2x when playing as Operator/Drifter. 
  • As announced in Hotfix 34.0.3, we disabled endless Steel Path Void Fissure missions as we worked on a fix. Now that it is live, we have re-enabled them to appear in the world state window! 
  • Related known issue: UI popup for Steel Essence may at times show the incorrect amount. 
• Fixed Stock spawning behind an inaccessible area in the Veil Factory Break Narmer mission. 
• Fixed the death animations of enemies killed by Dagath’s Wyrd Scythes being extremely slow. 
• Fixed Reinforced Bond’s fire rate buff unintentionally applying to Melee attack speed. 
• Fixed Reinforced Bond’s fire rate buff remaining active in the Simulacrum after changing weapons in the Arsenal.
• Fixed the Regen Mod drastically increasing the rate of fire of Helios’ Deconstructor. 
• Fixed Mystic Bond’s chance at a free Warframe ability cast triggering every 5 seconds instead of the intended “after Companion uses abilities with cooldowns 5 times” when equipped with the Strain Mod on a Helminth Charger. 
• Fixed the cloned Sentinels from Duplex Bond shooting at targets that are out of their line of sight. 
• Fixed Duplex Bond triggering when launching/deactivating Archwing in Open Landscapes. 
• Fixed Hydroid’s Tentacle Swarm Kraken despawning before the ability has expired. A pirate needs his trusted companion to stick around to take care of these landlubbers!
• Fixed Cyst on Voruna appearing on her head instead of her neck.
• Fixed the buff icon for Tenacious Bond not disappearing when switching between Companions in the Simulacrum.   
• Fixed the Nikana Elixis skin not using the correct materials for the blade.
• Fixed The Circuit rewards selection list not being centered when switching between the Normal and Steel Path modes.
• Fixed Arcanes acquired in mission not using the special pickup notification.
• Fixed the Page 5 “Kill 5 enemies while mid-air/during a trick chain” challenge of the Waverider Quest being incorrect in German. 
• Fixed a script error from waiting on “An updated version of Warframe is available” prompt for a very long time.
• Fixed script errors resulting from Dagath’s Wyrd Scythes losing their target.
• Fixed a script error related to talking to Saya in the Saya’s Vigil Quest.
• Fixed a script error in Grendel’s Feast ability. 
• Fixed a rare crash if network connection is lost during the Mask of the Revenant Quest.
• Fixed a script error with Melee weapons in Teshin’s Cave. 
• Fixed a script error from enemies being ragdolled by Hydroid’s Tentacle Swarm. 

• Additional notes: none.

Steel Path Endless Fissures: 
We have disabled Steel Path Fissure missions for Endless mission types (Survival, Defense, Interception, Disruption, and Excavation) due to an exploit. Our goal is to identify a fix for early next week, but in the meantime we have removed those missions from the Steel Path Fissure pool to prevent unintended behavior. 

Steel Path Fissures will still be available in the Star Chart, just for non-Endless missions only. 

KNOWN ISSUE: Riven Challenges Resetting 
We’re aware of an issue where Riven Challenges with a reset trigger are requiring players to maintain the challenge condition until the end of the mission, even after challenge completion. For example, with “Get X Kills In A Row While Wall Latching”, players would have their completed challenge reset the moment they touched the floor. 

At the time of writing, we have found a Code Fix for this issue (requiring Cert), but we are actively looking for a workaround that can be hotfixed. In the meantime, we are running a 2 x Veiled Riven Cipher Alert from Friday, Oct 20 at 2pm ET until Monday, Oct 23 at 9am ET to help players with affected Rivens. 

Official PSA Thread

Changes:

• Reduced frequency of Dagath’s sound effects to help with spam fatigue.
• Reduced screen shake effects when Dagath’s passive is triggered.  
• Reduced the frequency of Ordis’ new transmission playing when entering the Helminth room in your Orbiter. 

Fixes:

• Fixed being able to earn way too much Affinity from certain Riven Challenges that got missed in yesterday’s hotfix.
• Fixed Defixio Ammo Drain debuff being able to drain Scanners in Abyssal Zone missions.
• Fixed Medi-Pet Kit not having the intended +12 HP/s heal rate (it was using its original pre-rework +6 HP/s value). 
• Fixed a script error in Teshin’s Cave.

Known Issue: Hydroid’s Plunder Ability video is using the old Undertow video. We’ll be replacing it next week, but until them, puddle lovers can watch it lovingly to remember old times. 

• Additional notes: none.
• Source: Digital Extremes

Added: 

• Added description of Kullervo’s Bane to the “How To Play” section of the Seven Crimes of Kullervo update screen. 
• Added new Ordis lines when in the Helminth Room. He really lets you know now how he truly feels about the wall-mounted infestation. 

Changes:

• (Already live) Changed the price of the Aumen Kaithe Collection from 190 to 155 Platinum (PSA).  
  • We will be running a script to return the Platinum difference for those who purchased the Collection at its incorrect price. 
• Adjusted Chroma’s Elemental Ward buffs to account for the Warframe Health, Energy, and Armor stat overhaul that was released with Abyss of Dagath (full details on that in the patch-notes). This was missed in the update and since has allowed for wildly unintentional values.  Since Warframe base stats were increased overall and Elemental Ward scales off of base stats, the following adjustments were made:
  • Heat (Health Buff)
    • Was: 50% / 75% / 100% / 200%
    • Now:  15% / 20% / 30% / 55%
  • Electricity (Shields Buff) 
    • Was: 50% / 65% / 75% / 100% 
    • Now: 10% / 15% / 20% / 30%
  • Cold (Armor Buff) 
    • Was: 25% / 75% / 100% / 150%
    • Now: 25% / 70% / 95% / 145% 
  • NOTE: On paper, it may look as if we’ve nerfed it when comparing the before and after, but it has actually been slightly buffed since it is scaling off of the new increased Warframe base stats. Shields have had a slight reduction in the ability’s earlier rank 0 and 1, but at rank 2 and 3 it has also been marginally increased. To give you a better idea of how this looks, let’s use good ol’ Excalibur as an example: 
    • Before Abyss of Dagath: 
      • Base Health: 100 
      • Health With Elemental Ward Buff (200%): 200
    • After Abyss of Dagath & Today’s Hotfix:  
      • Base Health: 370 
      • With Elemental Ward Buff (55%): 203.5
• TEMPORARY: Completing Riven challenges will no longer grant Affinity. 
  • This temporary change fixes a bug that caused various issues for Riven Challenges — allowing them to be infinitely completed, or not completed at all in certain cases. The real fix that preserves this Code so it will come in our next Cert Build. 

 
Fixes:

• • Fixed Arcane Aegis exclusively triggering when not being attacked instead of when Shields are damaged. As reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1368186-arcane-aegis-massive-nerf/?do=findComment&comment=12885658 
  • Fixed Warframe getting stuck auto-meleeing after using Transference to Operator and back while auto-meleeing. Also fixed the retired Void Blast Operator attack returning and being spamming after the same sequence. This issue is still occurring! We are looking into a follow up fix. 

• Fixed the enemy armor stripping from Dagath’s Rakhali’s Calvary not applying to Clients view.
• Fixed case where Hounds would not attack or move if they had any of the new Bond Mods equipped. 
• Fixed getting some small one-time Affinity popups when first loading into a mission with certain Bond Mods equipped. 
• Fixed Shedu’s beam damage instances at times quadrupling after battery recharge.  
• Fixed Eidolon Lures still moving after being commanded to hold position.  
• Fixed HUD buff for Tenacious Bond not appearing and not removing itself when swapping Companions in the Simulacrum.
• Fixed Tenacious Bond not taking Hunter Synergy’s +30% Critical Chance-Link  into account. 
• Fixed multiple of the same Tenacious Bond buffs appearing in the HUD when entering and exiting Archwing as Khora with Venari. 
• Fixed enemy ships in Railjack missions idly flying around instead of attacking. 
• Fixed Crew Members not being able to drive the Railjack from the Pilot seat. 
• Fixed Teshin butting in and overriding the intended Abyssal Zone mission transmission with his Steel Path lines. 
• Fixed the dots under the Focus Lens icons no longer being visible (to indicate what tier of Lens it is) in the Arsenal.
• Fixed the Nidus Voidshell Skin Helmet being available to equip when you don’t own the Skin.  
• Fixed selected UI Theme not applying to the new Update screen. 
• Fixes towards Clients seeing the Host’s Kaithes from Dagath’s Rakhali’s Cavalry ability being misaligned or sticking to the Host. 
• Fixed being able to temporarily equip for-purchase UI Themes and Backgrounds that you do not own. 
• Fixed Grendel Nian Skin’s skirt floating up when equipped on Grendel Prime. 
• Fixed Zylok Prime reverting to its non-prime model when equipped with a Glaive. 
• Fixed the Waverider Quest challenge button callouts missing text. 
• Fixed the volume of one of Ordis’ new lines being too loud. 
• Fixed repeating Ordis line when entering the Helminth room.
• Fixed several of the Zariman Decorations not being chat-linkable (there are still some stragglers that we’ll address in future hotfixes). 
• Fixed Spanish subtitles for Deimos and Leverian lines having numeric markers in square brackets. 
• Fixed the universal Enemy Radar applying to Conclave – this is a PVE only feature! 
• Fixed a script error that could occur when picking up a Defixio in the Abyssal Zone mission. 
• Fixed a script error that could occur when players die or Clients disconnect during an Abyssal Zone mission. 
• Fixed a script error when closing the game while you are in Teshin’s Cave. 
• Fixed script errors in Momentus Bond. 
• Fixed script errors in Dagath’s Wyrd Scythe and Grave Spirit. 
• Fixed a script error in the Apostasy Prologue Quest. 
• Fixed a script error with the Glaive reticle. 
• Fixed several script errors in Hydroid’s Tentacle Swarm. 
• Fixed a script error in Hydroid’s Tempest Barrage when cast on Railjack. 
• Fixed a script error in Dagath’s Rakhali’s Calvary.

Warframe – Ver. 34.0.1

• Release date: October 18th 2023 (North America, Europe) / October 19th 2023 (Japan)
• Patch notes:

Changes:

• Removed broken Public Matchmaking functionality from The Steel Path Abyssal Zone mission. The functionality was not intended and resulted in Steel Path players matchmaking with normal mission squads. Abyssal Zone is intended to function like the old Void Key “keyshare” system, where an Abyssal Beacon requires a premade squad and the player who started the mission vote gets their Beacon consumed. 
• Increased sorting priority of Vainthorn so that it appears closer to the top of the End of Mission screen. 
• Updated Naramon’s abilities with the new game audio mix remaster that was released with Abyss of Dagath. 

Missed Note From Abyss of Dagath: 

• Updated our Damage Number system to add an exclamation point (!) for every Crit Tier above Super Crits, up to 3 total. Now you’ll really be able to tell when you’re doing a lot of damage!!!

Fixes:

• Fixed Thrax and Kuva Lich Candidates getting instantly killed instead of entering their spectral/defeated states when killed by Dagath’s Wyrd Scythes. 
• Fixed Defixios being able to spawn in an inaccessible location.
• Fixed Momentous Bond’s bonus damage sometimes not applying correctly for Clients.

• Fixed The Business not delivering his new inbox message upon the completion of Saya’s Vigil Quest.
• Fixed the Flawed Antitoxin Mod being 10k Platinum instead of 10k Credits in the Steel Meridian Surplus. 
  • For those who flexed and spent the downpayment’s amount of Platinum on the Antitoxin Mod, a script has already been run to refund it! 
• Fixed “[PH] GET ACT BOOSTERS” button and options appearing in the Nightwave screen. As reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1368200-pc-ph-get-act-boosters-button-appears-after-tuning-into-a-previous-act/#comment-12885255
  • This was explored internally, but we felt it didn’t fit with all the changes we implemented for Nightwave with Abyss of Dagath. We may revisit it one day, but for now, these are outdated ideas that slipped through with the Mainline build. 
• Fixed not receiving Health via Health Orb pickups from a Dispensary with Repair Dispensary Augment equipped for every Warframe but Khora.
• Fixed not being able to get close enough to Dagath’s Prex card to pick it up in Dagath’s Hollow Dojo Room.
• Fixed missing Icon, Art, and description for the Dagath Prex Card. Also fixed not being able to Chatlink it.

• Fixed Tranq Rifle being unequipped from Host after quick meleeing. 
• Fixed being able to chat link unreleased Weapon Augment Mods planned for the next Nora’s Mix Volume. 
• Fixed the Acrobat, Marathon, and Quick Rest Stamina Mods appearing in the Steel Meridian Surplus. Stamina is a relic of the past and serves no function in modern day Warframe. 
• Fixed crash caused by exiting the Arsenal. 
• Fixed UI disappearing after failing and restarting a side objective Kaithe race in Duviri. 
• Fixed issues with Zylok Prime’s sound effects when transforming into Incarnon Form.
• Fixed the sound effects created by Afentis’ alt-fire field being far too loud.  
• Fixed Jat Kittag in Break Narmer missions missing sound effects for stealth kills. 
• Fixed issues with Energy pickups counting as negative progress towards spawning another Duplex Bond clone.
• Fixed Clients seeing two buffs in the HUD for Tenacious Bond if Khora’s Venari and Companion both had it equipped (UI only issue).  
• Fixed softlock that could occur when trying to abandon Simaris’ daily task screen. 
• Fixed Nautilus missing its incapacitated animations. 
• Fixed old despawn VFX occurring when Sentinels revive. 
• Fixed various Buffs in the Pause menu having [PH] descriptions. 
• Fixed Transmissions that referenced player’s Clan Name not playing.
  • This is relevant to a few older Transmissions! As an example, you may hear reference to your Clan while fighting The Sergeant or Lieutenant Lech Kril.

Enhanced-Only Graphics Renderer on Nintendo Switch
Nintendo Switch now officially uses the Enhanced Graphics Renderer and joins the rest of the console platforms who are now also exclusively using it with the release of Abyss of Dagath. This means that the Classic Graphics Renderer has officially been retired on consoles. 

PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X launched with Enhanced, and last-gen have been using it by default since Citrine’s Last Wish. Now that it has been brought to Nintendo Switch with the release of Abyss of Dagath, we have met our goal of unifying the rendering framework across all platforms! 

Now, all Tenno can experience the new GI volume lighting system, decal system, tattoos, facial hair, and more that help raise the overall quality of Warframe. Which is very exciting, as the next major update in 2023 for Warframe “Whispers In The Wall” was built on all its features and tools to create a stunning visual experience!

https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1368105-psa-enhanced-graphics-engine-coming-to-nintendo-switch-with-abyss-of-dagath/

Nintendo Switch-Specific Notes: 

• Made micro-optimization to rendering on Nintendo Switch. 
• Fixed an issue on Nintendo Switch where friends could incorrectly appear in the friend’s list with a Mastery Rank of 0, regardless of their actual Rank.
• Fixed potential performance issue when changing the Color Correction option on Nintendo Switch. 

NEW EXTERMINATE NODE: ABYSSAL ZONE

A group of initiates, sent jointly by the Pledged Syndicates need help finishing a doomed mission to recover Orokin Era Defixios from a Galleon of Grineer raiders adrift in the Abyssal Zone, looming near Ceres. These tablets were plundered from an archaeological dig site known as Villa Irillia, former home to a powerful and debaucherous Orokin couple. They possess a certain cursed energy, inflicting those who carry it in sinister ways. Cut down the Grineer forces to keep them out of their hands and to clear a path for the initiates to make their escape. All while reaping the reward that lies within the salvaged Defixios. 

Requirements: 
Achieve Rank 2 in any of the Pledged Syndicates (Steel Meridian, Arbiters of Hexis, Cephalon Suda, The Perrin Sequence, Red Veil, and New Loka). An inbox message is sent upon doing so!

How to Play: 
Abyssal Beacons are the key to locating the Grineer Galleon in the Abyssal Zone near Ceres, otherwise perpetually obscured by darkness. Acquire them with 5,000 Standing from any of the Pledged Syndicate’s Offerings to pinpoint the Abyssal Zone Node on Ceres. Players can tackle the task either solo or with a premade squad – one Abyssal Beacon is consumed upon completing the mission (from Host in premade). 

In this mission you have two objectives:
1. Exterminate the required amount of enemies
2. Recover a Defixio by delivering it to the Extraction Point

There are a total of 8 Defixios hidden on the ship, but only one per player is required to be recovered and deposited in the Extraction Zone (4 total for full squad) to complete the mission. 

While only one Defixio per player is required, you can assist your squadmates by dropping off more in the zone after you have successfully delivered your own. Upon entering the zone, the extra Defixios will count towards your squadmates’ objective. Players carrying Defixios outside of the extraction zone when the timer runs out will also have their deposit counted. 

Syndicate Agents, desperate to escape the hellscape they found themselves in, are hiding around the Galleon and are eager to share their intel on the location of Defixios – look for their Ally map markers and interact with them to mark an area on the map where a Defixio can be found. 

Look for the telltale red glow around a Defixio to find it and pick it up. Similar to Datamasses, players carrying a Defixio will still be able to use their Secondary and Melee weapons, and can pick up or drop their payload at will. 

 

Mission Hazards: 
Finding and extracting Defixios comes at a cost, Tenno. A random debuff is applied for the duration that it is carried, making the journey to Extraction more challenging. The following debuffs can be applied: 

• Phantom Curse: Gravity is reduced.
• Scarcity Curse: Your Ammo depletes steadily. Battery weapons recharge slowly. 
• Echo Curse: Take damage when you cast Abilities. 
• Hunter Curse: Take damage as you move. Land jumps for a brief reprieve from this curse.
• Exposure Curse: Your Shields get removed. 
• Blood Curse: Your Health drains steadily. Killing enemies restores it. 
• Weariness Curse: Your energy drains steadily.
• Shadow Curse: Your light source dims steadily. Melee kills brighten it. 

Additionally, nearing the required amount of slain enemies will trigger a call for reinforcements, turning your mission into an Eximus Stronghold until you successfully extract.

Steel Path Modifiers: 
The usual Steel Path difficulty modifiers are enabled in the Abyssal Zone, but with a toxic twist! Grineer Nox reinforcements have a higher chance of spawning in The Steel Path. 

 

Reward – New Resource: Vainthorn
Completing the mission rewards 6-8x Vainthorns (8, 11, and 12 on The Steel Path) – a new resource found within Defixios. The rare thorn of an extinct rose, and a vital component in Orokin Defixios and other technology. It is used to craft Dagath and the Dorrclave.  
 

 

NEW WARFRAME: DAGATH 
Never underestimate the power and wrath of sullen sadness. Dagath’s malice deals high damage. 

Passive: Abundant Abyss
There is a 35% chance that Energy and Health Orbs will be 300% more effective on Dagath.

Wyrd Scythes
Wyrd Scythes surround Dagath and seek out nearby enemies. Those struck are slowed and suffer Viral Damage with a guaranteed Status Effect. The scythes also spread Doom and extend its duration.

Wyrd Scythes is Dagath’s Helminth ability (Altered: Diminished Slow) and Railjack ability. 

Doom

SYSTEM CHANGES AND GENERAL QUALITY OF LIFE

This section covers the following topics (in order):

• Warframe Shield Changes
• Base vs. Final Stats in Modding – Health / Energy / Shield / Armor Stat Overhaul
• Focus Lens Conversion Buff
• Nightwave Changes
• Break Narmer Mission Improvements
• Archon Hunt Damage Attenuation Changes 

Warframe Shield Changes
There are many avenues for Tenno to approach Warframe survivability. Usually, it’s through increasing Health and Armor values, or making use of damage resistance features of certain Mods or Abilities, etc. For Shields, however, there is an incentive to do the opposite: the meta prior to this update encouraged players to reduce Shield values as much as possible to make use of Shield Gating mechanics. 

As Developers, we’re stuck in a strange position. On one hand, we see player ingenuity and creative ways of engaging with mechanics, but on the other, we see proof that Shields are not offering the same value to players as other survivability tools – to the point where you are rewarded for having the lowest Shield stat possible. 

We have changed this so that Tenno are incentivized to increase their Shield stat instead of reducing it. To do so, we have approached this challenge in two key ways:

Firstly – we’ve buffed Tenno Shields overall!
Previously: Tenno Shields offered a 25% resistance to all damage types.
Now: Tenno Shields will offer a 50% resistance to all damage types. 

We’ve also buffed a few Shield-specific Mods with Recharge rate in mind! 
(values below are at max rank)

• Fast Deflection: Added -45% Shield Recharge Delay
• Fortitude: Increased the Shield Recharge value from +80% to +100%. 
  • Also increased Chance to Resist Knockdown from +20% to +40%. 
• Vigilante Vigor: Added -30% Shield Recharge Delay

These Mod buffs feed directly into the other half of our approach:

Secondly – we’ve reworked Shield Gating!
Shield Gating was added to the game back in 2020 with Update 27.2.0 as a way to prevent one-shots, especially at higher-level content. We feel that this mechanic accomplished that goal, but the implementation of it had an unintended side-effect: players were rewarded for having the smallest Shield stat and fastest Shield Recharge stat to make use of the Full Shield Break mechanic.  

As mentioned above, our intention is to offer players more benefits for having larger Shield values, so Shield Gating has been reworked. The core mechanic is staying: when you lose all Shields, you gain a period of invulnerability. What has changed is how this period of invulnerability scales with the amount of Shields you have. 

The changes outlined below have been made with that vision in mind:

Part 1 – Shield Gate Duration will scale with the amount of Shields you had upon Shield Break.

Previously: Full Shields upon Shield break offered a 1.3-second window of invulnerability. 

Now, depending on your Modded values, this window could be anywhere from 0.33 seconds (minimum duration) to 2.5 seconds (capped at 1150 Shields). To receive the original 1.3-second Shield Gate, players will now need around 325 Shields upon Shield Break.

Part 2 – Partially Depleted Shields do not have a separate Shield Gate Duration.

Previously, shield breaks on Shields that were not fully regenerated offered 0.33 seconds of Shield Gating.

Now, Partially Depleted Shields are treated with the same scaling values outlined above. For example, if you had a max Shield value of 1200, but your Shields were broken with only 350 available, you would receive ~1.3 seconds of Shield Gating!

With these changes, the more Shields you have and the faster they regenerate, the more you’ll get out of the Shield Gating system!

Part 3 – We’ve added a new Corrupted Mod: Catalyzing Shields
With the changes to Shield Gating, we still wanted to offer players different ways to interact with this system without always having to Mod for the most Shields possible. To accomplish this, we have introduced a new Corrupted Mod: Catalyzing Shields

This Mod reduces your maximum Shields by 80% but also changes how Shield Gating Scaling works for your Warframe with a guaranteed 1.33 seconds of Shield Gating upon full Shield depletion. With this Mod equipped, Shield Gating duration scales from 0.33 to 1.33 based on your maximum Shield values, regardless of what they are.

For example, if my maximum Shields are 100 with Catalyzing Shields equipped, I would expect the following Shield Gating durations:

• 100 Shields at Shield Break: 1.33s of Shield Gating
• 75 Shields at Shield Break: 1.0s of Shield Gating
• 50 Shields at Shield Break: 0.67s of Shield Gating
• 25 Shields at Shield Break: 0.34s of Shield Gating
• 10 Shields at Shield Break: 0.33s of Shield Gating
  • As a reminder, 0.33s is the absolute minimum duration for Shield Gating!

How to acquire Catalyzing Shields: 
Since this is a new Corrupted Mod, it is obtainable via Orokin Vaults on Deimos.

An Alert for the Catalyzing Shields Mod will be available in the near future to give players faster access to this Mod to test in their builds. We will share start/end dates for that Alert soon! 

Part 4 – Decaying Dragon Keys have been updated to debuff both Shields and Shield Gating. 
With revised Shield Gating, we felt it was important to update Decaying Dragon Keys as well. These Gear items were previously used to lower the threshold needed for Full Shield Breaks with Shield Gating, and while we loved to see players finding unique interactions between various mechanics, Dragon Keys are intended to increase difficulty when equipped.

With that intention in mind, Decaying Dragon Keys now cap player Shield Gates to 0.33s maximum. 

Part 5 – A few other details to cover!

• Hildryn’s Passive has been buffed from 3s Shield Gating Duration to 3.5s Shield Gating Duration!
• Updated Grenade Fan’s description to better communicate how Shield Satellites work with Shield Gating. 
  • “(HOLD) SHIELD SATELLITES – Protea reconfigures Grenades to work as overcharging shield generators, protecting her, her allies and companions. When Shields break, a Satellite is destroyed to double minimum Shield Gate invincibility time.”  
• Shield Regeneration Delay Reduction is now capped at 80%. Many Mods have now been updated to offer this benefit, leading to the possibility of stacking Shield Regen to be faster than Shield Gate expiring. Now, players should have easier access to reducing the regeneration time, without risking issues with permanent invulnerability. 
  • Guardian Break Shield Regeneration delay reduction has been decreased from 90% to 80% at max rank as a result. We have buffed this effect’s duration 8s to 12s at max rank to compensate!
• Updated the Shield stat on-hover description in the Upgrade Screen to describe Shield break functionality and include Shield Gate duration for your current modded max Shields.  

There are many variables that will impact the overall outcome of these Shield changes with Abyss of Dagath, and we’ll be keeping a close eye on player feedback now that this is in the community’s hands. With this update’s release, you’ll be seeing many changes in your Arsenal Upgrade screens — both for Shield changes listed above, and the following overhaul:

Base vs Final Stats in Modding – Health / Energy / Shield / Armor Stat Overhaul

If you’ve spent any time invested in the deeper nuances of Modding, you may be familiar with “Warframe Math” – math that upon first glance doesn’t really make sense, but once you learn the inner workings of the game, it all comes together. While we can appreciate the value that complex systems offer to a certain subsect of players, there are other aspects of the game that should have clear and understandable outcomes. Namely: Shield, Health, Energy, and Armor Modding. 

Pop quiz: what is 300 + 440%? If you answered 740, you may just be an Excalibur player.

Vitality (+440% Heath), Redirection (+440% Shields), Flow (+150% Energy), and Steel Fiber (+110% Armor) come with large modifier values that don’t seem to match their outcome in-game. This is because these Mods apply their multiplier to the base stats of the Warframe – i.e., the stats you have at Rank 0. In the Excalibur example, a Rank 30 Excalibur’s Health stat of 300 earns an additional 440 Health from max rank Vitality (+440% Heath) since it applies to his base rank Health stat of 100, resulting in 740 total health. 

In this update, we have removed this obfuscation by having Health, Shield, Energy, and Armor Mods apply to the stats of Warframes at their current rank. Continuing our Excalibur example, instead of Vitality always applying to Excalibur’s base rank 100 Health, it would apply to his Health stat based on his rank – namely, the stat you can actually see in your Arsenal. If your Excalibur were Rank 30, his Health stat would be 300, which means Vitality’s multiplier would be calculated off of 300. 

With previous Health and Mod values, additional adjustments are needed to make this revision work while maintaining game balance. By only changing where the multiplier applies, a Rank 30 Excalibur would receive an extra 1,320 Health from max rank Vitality, resulting in a total health stat of 1,600. This outcome is a significant buff, which is not the intention of this system change. 

To remedy this, we approached this problem in two ways:

1 – We reduced the overall multiplier for Health, Shield, Energy, and Armor Mods.
Since these now affect Max Rank Warframe stats, these Mods need to scale differently to maintain the status quo. Additionally, we wanted these new values to be as clear and understandable to all players as possible! Here are a few examples of these value changes:

• Vitality: Reduced from +440% to +100% Health
• Redirection: Reduced from +440% to +100% Shield Capacity
• Steel Fiber: Reduced from +110% to +100% Armor
• Flow: Reduced from +150% to +100% Energy Max

Note: These are not all of the Mods affected by this change. We share the comprehensive list further down in this section of the update notes.

Doing some quick math, this means that a Rank 30 Excalibur (300 Health) with a reworked Vitality Mod (+100% Health, applied to the final Health stat) would receive 300 extra Health, for a total of 600. That, in contrast, is a nerf, which we also don’t want to do. 

So, our next step:

2 – We adjusted Warframe Health, Shield, Energy, and Armor values to keep the end result of the revised Mods as close to the original values as possible. 
 

With this change, Excalibur’s Rank 30 Health stat is 370. With +100% Health from a max Vitality Mod, his resulting Health stat would be 740, which matches what it was originally. 

While this path to the same result may seem a little complicated, the outcome matches our intention: we want players to be able to look at their Health, Shield, and Armor Mods, and be able to understand how they affect the stats they see in their Arsenal. 

In addition to everything above, we also increased the base stat values for Warframes so that these revised Mods offer similar value for lower-ranked Frames. To do so, we reduced the amount of Health/Shield/Energy that Warframes earn per rank in half, and transferred the sum of that value to their base stats. 

For Armor, this is the one stat that does not increase with your Warframe’s level (with some exceptions). Armor values across the board have been slightly increased to compensate for the Mod changes. We will only be listing Base stats for Armor changes, unless the Warframe has a different Armor stat at Max Rank. 

Not to beat a dead Kaithe, but Mods will now be applying to the Max Rank stat instead of the Base Rank. You may look at these numbers and think “nerf” or “buff” depending, but the outcome is that total Modded values are the same, if not a little higher in some cases.  Here are a few outliers before we get into the nitty-gritty of it:

• Lavos, Nidus, Nidus Prime, and Kullervo all have buffs to their Armor values as a result of this change.
  • Ex: Nidus Prime’s Armor stat increased from 910 (previous) to 1,050 (new with this update) with max Steel Fiber Equipped. With all 3 Umbral Warframe Mods equipped, this buff results in a difference of 1198 Armor (previous) to 1470 Armor (new with this update).
• Garuda and Garuda Prime’s received buffs to their Modded Energy pool.
  • ie. Garuda Prime’s Energy stat has been increased from 800 (previous) to 912 (new with this update) with max Primed Flow equipped.

 

Warframe Stat Changes:
Note: for those comparing Dev Workshop values and final values, the major change you will see in the stats below is a general increase in Base Rank Health and Shields. This is due to a change to how Health/Shields are earned per rank, to increase survivability of unranked Warframes, which was not properly captured in our initial Dev Workshop stats.

These changes in action using Odonata!
 

While there may be significant changes to Warframe Stats and Mod values as a part of this overhaul, the end result is that your Builds should mostly stay the same. The key difference is the added clarity of what your Health / Shield / Energy / Armor Mods do in your Upgrade screens! 

Focus Lens Conversion Buff
Focus acquisition can take a significant time investment, especially for those who prefer more passive farming methods. Completing all of your Focus Schools acts as a long-term goal for many players, but we felt the need to mitigate the time investment slightly. 

Now, Focus Lenses will offer greater conversion rates, as follows:

• Regular Lens: 1.25 > 2%
• Greater Lens: 1.75 > 3%
• Eidolon Lens: 2.25 > 4.25%
• Lua Lens: 3.25 > 5.5%

Additionally, all Convergence Orbs now offer a flat 5,000 Focus bonus to your equipped Focus School upon pickup. 

Nightwave Changes
Nora Night has been gracing our airwaves since 2019, and word is she felt it was time for a little refresh. While many of our changes are shipping in our next Nightwave Series (as outlined in our Dev Workshop), Abyss of Dagath has brought some changes to keep Nora’s Acts fun, accessible, and as always, incentivizin’. 

Revised Nightwave Acts
In the 4 years of Nightwave history, many Acts have come and gone. This update brings revisions to existing Nightwave Acts that have been reworked with two approaches: a) to reduce the grind required to complete some Acts, and b) to expand the ways in which players can complete them!

Any existing progress on these Acts will remain intact! In the case where an Act has had its requirements reduced and you have already hit that new requirement, you may need to do a single instance of the task to trigger completion (e.g. if you had 10/20 enemies killed while sliding for the Accelerator Act prior to this update, you would have to kill one more enemy while sliding for it to be marked as complete). 

• Accelerator: Kill 10 Enemies while Sliding (was: 20)
• Conservationist: Complete 3 different Perfect Animal Captures in Orb Vallis (was: 6)
• Earth Bounty Hunter: Complete 3 different Bounties in the Plains of Eidolon (was: 5)
• Earth Fisher: Catch 3 Rare Fish in the Plains of Eidolon (was: 6)
• Earth Miner: Mine 3 Rare Gems or Ore in the Plains of Eidolon (was: 6)
• Eternal Guardian: Complete 2 Void Armageddon missions (was: 3)
• Everything Old is New Again: Complete 1 Transmutations (was: 3)
• Glider: Kill 15 Enemies while Aim Gliding (was: 20)
• Invader: Complete 6 Invasion missions of any type (was: 9)
• Night and Day: Collect 10 Vome or Fass Residue in the Cambion Drift. (was: 15)
• Night Terror: Complete 5 Nightmare missions of any type (was: 10)
• Researcher: Scan 15 Objects or Enemies (was: 25)
• Sanctuary Researcher: Complete 3 Scans for Cephalon Simaris (was: 5)
• Supporter: Complete 5 Syndicate missions (was: 10)
• Survival: Complete a Survival mission reaching at least 20 minutes (was: 30)
• Venus Bounty Hunter: Complete 3 different bounties in the Orb Vallis (was: 5)
• Venus Fisher: Catch 3 Rare Servofish in the Orb Vallis (was: 6)
• Venus Miner: Mine 3 Rare Gems or Ore in the Orb Vallis (was: 6)
• Animator: Retrieve the Ayatan Statue for Maroo in Maroo’s Bazaar
  • Previously was: Fully Socket 3 Ayatan Sculptures
• Now Boarding: Complete 3 different K-Drive races in Orb Vallis on Venus or in Cambion Drift on Deimos. 
  • Previously was limited to only Orb Vallis races.
• Thrill Rider: Kill 20 Enemies while riding a K-Drive, Kaithe, Velocipod, Merulina
  • Expanding the eligibility of this Act to all of your trusty steeds. 
  • Previously named “Surfs Up!”
• The Hunt is On: Find 5 Syndicate Medallions
  • Players will no longer have to be the one to pick up the Medallion for this to count.
• The Personal Touch: Place 1 decoration in your Orbiter or Dormizone
  • Only Orbiter decorating used to count!
• Cache Hunter: Find 6 caches across any Sabotage missions
  • Previously was: “Find all caches in 3 Sabotage missions”
• Saver: Pick up 15,000 Credits
  • Mission credit rewards will now count towards this Act!
• The Many Made Whole: Functionality remains, updated description to be more accurate.
  • Previously was: “Convert 10 Riven Slivers into a Riven Mod” 
  • Now: “Exchange 10 Riven Slivers for a Riven Mod” 

Introductory Nightwave Screen
The first time you log in with a Nightwave Series available (Awakening and Vor’s Prize Quests must be completed), a pop-up screen will appear highlighting various Series rewards, a brief description, and a button to visit the Nightwave menu!

We’re adding this to increase visibility of Nightwave for newer players who may be unfamiliar with Nora, and as a reminder when a new Nightwave has dropped! 

Note: The 3 Permanent Weekly Acts that were mentioned in Devstream 173 will be coming with the next Nora’s Mix Volume. 

Break Narmer Mission Improvements

Kahl’s missions are a great way to earn an extra Archon Shard every week, but there is no denying that playing the same 3 Break Narmer missions can get repetitive. After looking at Community feedback and reflecting on our own experiences after almost a year of this content being available, we’ve prepared some Quality of Life changes and a few ways to spice up these familiar missions. 

General Kahl-ity of Life Changes:

• Kahl see more! 
  • Kahl now has Loot Radar and Enemy Radar. This will allow you to plan your offensive, and find key pick-ups to complete your Stock challenges faster!
• Kahl go fast! 
  • Kahl’s max speed and overall walking speed have been increased.
• Kahl earn stock! 
  • Added Stock Pickups to Break Narmer missions. 8 to 12 Stock Pickups will spawn per mission, offering 2 Stock each. These will appear on your Loot Radar and will respawn if the mission is replayed. Extraction is required to earn the picked-up Stock. 

Expanding Kahl’s Garrison:
Kahl will now find additional weapons next to his fallen Brothers as a way to add more variety to his overall gameplay. Three different weapons will spawn randomly each time you play! 

In Junk Run* and Prison Break missions, you can find the following:

• Ogris
• Gorvakk (new shotgun found only in Break Narmer missions!)
• Ignis
• Tonkor
• Grinlok
• Jat Kittag

*Once Kahl equips the Salvaged Kuva Ayanga in the Junk Run mission, these optional weapons are removed. Once the Tusk Thumper has been defeated, they will respawn. 

As for Sneaky Sabotage, since this mission has specific weapon restrictions, there are no plans to offer additional weapons to this mission at this time. 
 

Archon Hunt Damage Attenuation Changes
Speaking of earning Archon Shards, Damage Attenuation (or “damage pillows”) may be a familiar mechanic for those who frequent Archon Hunts each week. 

This was a hot topic, especially near the end of 2022. Since then, we’ve taken our time to assess player feedback and devise a plan to address it — and we’re finally at a place where we can execute it. 

Damage Attenuation is one tool of many to increase enemy difficulty by limiting how much damage they take from player weapons, etc. 
Our current form of Damage Attenuation has resulted in many weapons feeling lackluster due to the high attenuation values, and damage output was reduced significantly to balance out the post-attenuation modifiers — meaning that Archon fights felt like a slog if players did not use a limited set of optimal builds.

This is not a favorable outcome, so we have made the following changes:

1 – Maximum Damage Caps have increased

• Maximum Damage per Damage Instance has been increased 
• Maximum Damage Per Second has been increased 

Our goal is to make big hits still feel like big hits, especially for low-rate-of-fire weapons. We’re able to reduce the damage cap significantly because of the next change:
 
2 – Modifiers now apply before Damage Attenuation

Critical Multipliers (and other modifiers) applying post-damage-cap allowed for many of the One Shot builds to function, and for full transparency, we want to prevent One Shot Archon builds as much as possible. By changing where these modifiers apply, we can increase the Damage Caps to a much less punishing level for players.

Our goals with these changes are to:

• Increase player damage output, thereby reducing the overall time to kill for Archons
• Make “big hits” feel impactful by no longer throttling them to such an extreme degree
• Encourage overall build diversity for Archon Hunts
• Reduce the ability to use one-shot builds

We’re excited to see what Archon Hunts look like for players with these changes in the live build! Now that these changes have been released, we’ll be keeping a close eye on player feedback and the resulting time-to-kill for Archons to see if further iteration is needed. 

Please share any bug reports and feedback related to any and all of the above System Changes And General Quality Of Life Changes in the official Abyss of Dagath subforums.

NEW PLAYER PATH IMPROVEMENTS

This section covers the following topics (in order):

• Removal of Flawed Mods and MK1 Weapons from Vor’s Prize
• Early Game Inbox and Junction Adjustments
• Universal Enemy Radar
• Quest Improvements 
  • Including Waverider, The Glast Gambit, Natah, and Vox Solaris
• Assassination Target Improvements
• Cetus Wisp and Necramech Acquisition Changes

Removal of Flawed Mods and MK1 Weapons from Vor’s Prize

Flawed Mods 
Flawed Mods are a special variant of Mods that are only accessible via the Vor’s Prize Quest and were intended to be an early introduction for players to the Modding system. Over the years, we have come to understand that these Mods have the unintended effect of players investing Endo that would be better used in the non-flawed variants. 

As a result, we have removed Flawed Mods from Vor’s Prize and replaced them with the normal variants. Additionally, players who already own Flawed Mods have had them replaced with the normal variant with this update’s release — excluding the April Fool’s Flawed Ammo Drum from 2016, of course. The conversion maintained the Mod rank, so a Rank 3 Flawed Vitality has become a Rank 3 Vitality, etc. 

Any equipped Flawed Mods have been uninstalled, so be sure to check your builds if this affects you!

Flawed Mod Storage Site
After posting our initial Dev Workshop outlining the Flawed Mods removal, many players expressed their desire to keep them for a variety of reasons. Luckily for those Tenno, we managed to find the original (disposal) storage site of the Flawed Mods and have made them available to players once more.

Seek out the storage site near Cressa Tel  in Iron Wake on Earth to purchase them anew. We did our best to price these rare finds fairly, keeping in mind that these are now collector’s items of course, so they can be yours for the cost of a few (thousand) Credits!

While this is a tongue-in-cheek implementation of new Flawed Mods acquisition, we appreciate the value that these Mods offer to certain players and wanted to keep them available for those who requested it. 

Note: Due to the unique acquisition method for these Mods, players will not be able to dissolve Flawed Mods for Endo or Transmute them.

Adjusting for Increased Mod Drain
As Flawed Mods are being removed, we want to ensure that new players can still create their early builds and equip Mods onto their equipment. Since normal Mods have a higher drain than their Flawed variants, we’re approaching this problem in two ways:

Firstly, we’ve added 90k Bonus Affinity to the completion of the Vor’s Prize Quest, split up across the 6 missions. Each mission earns new players an additional 15k Affinity upon first completion only.

NOTE: With the extra Affinity earned throughout Vor’s Prize, we have removed the ability for players to attempt Mastery Rank tests until they have completed this Quest. 

Secondly, we’ve reduced the base Drain for a few core Mods by 2. This will allow these Mods to fit into early game builds more easily, but also has the benefit of reducing their overall Drain at all ranks.

Here are the Mods that have been reduced from a Drain of 4 to 2 at Rank 0:

• Fast Deflection – new Max Rank Drain of 7
• Redirection – new Max Rank Drain of 12
• Enemy Sense – new Max Rank Drain of 7
• Continuity – new Max Rank Drain of 7

MK1 Weapons
Along the lines of Flawed Mods, the less powerful MK1 variants of the Braton, Paris, Kunai, and Bo have been removed from the Vor’s Prize Quest. Now, new players will be presented with the normal variants of these weapons.

Rest assured that all MK1 weapons still remain available for purchase with Credits in the Market!
 

Early Game Inbox and Junction Adjustments

Updated Early Game Inbox Messages
Continuing with our plans for improving the new player path, we have updated the completion Inbox messages for the following Quests:

• Vor’s Prize
  • Added new Ordis voice lines when interacting with the Mod Segment during the Quest to set expectations around Modding this early on in the game: “Ordis realizes modding may seem a tad overwhelming, but everything will soon make sense.” 
• Saya’s Vigil
  • Added Gara’s Blueprint to this inbox message instead of it being a Quest Completion screen reward!

Following the completion of Saya’s Vigil, we have also written a new inbox from The Business directing players to visit Fortuna.

Known Issue: We have identified an issue causing this inbox message to not be delivered with this Update’s launch. We have fixed the issue and it will be coming in an upcoming hotfix.

Our goal is to better guide newly awakened Tenno through the Star Chart. At the end of Vor’s Prize, they will be directed to Cetus to learn about Codex Scanners and receive their first Warframe Blueprint with a light introduction to Resource and Blueprint acquisition. Then they will be encouraged to follow the Junction path to the next planet.
 
We have plans to continue improvements along the Junction path in future updates with the new player experience in mind.

Junctions
Speaking of Junctions, we’ve made the following adjustments to the Venus and Mercury Junctions:

Venus

• Removal of the “Collect 20 Mods” and “Apply 4 mods to a Single Warframe or Weapon” tasks. 
  • With the removal of Flawed Mods, the “Apply 4 Mods” challenge may become more difficult. Our goal for Junction tasks is to both teach new Tenno about the game, and guide them where to go next — neither of these challenges quite fit that vision. 
• NEW TASK: “Complete Quest: Saya’s Vigil”
  • Similar to the Inbox changes, our goal is to direct new players to Cetus early in their journey! It’s an opportunity to meet those the Tenno protect while learning about Codex Scanners and Warframe Blueprints.
• Reduced the Rank requirement from 2 to 1 for the “Upgrade any mod through the fusion process” task. Simplified the description as well to better explain how to complete it: 
  • Was: Use ENDO to upgrade Mods at the MOD STATION in your Orbiter.
  • Now: FUSION requires ENDO and CREDITS and is available at the MODS bench in the middle-deck of your Orbiter. 

Mercury

• Added Incubator Power Core to Junction rewards 
  • Howl of the Kubrow is a Quest unlocked from the Mercury Junction, which requires an Incubator Power Core to complete. The free path to this item was not available until the Mars Junction was completed, which we felt was confusing to many new Tenno eager to hatch their first furry friend.  

Universal Enemy Radar
Players now have a Universal Enemy Radar set to 30m to help new players navigate through their missions. Warframe is more fun when you know where your foes are, and we felt that this important mechanic no longer needed to be tied to game progression.

Existing Enemy Radar Mods will simply add to the base Enemy Radar values!
ie. your Enemy Radar with Enemy Sense equipped would now be 60m!

Quest Improvements

Waverider Quest
For those who didn’t grow up playing Tony Hawk Pro Skater, the Waverider Quest may be a stopping point for you to acquire Yareli. Simply put: the gameplay requirements are not what you see in your average Warframe mission, being K-drive focused. While we love adding variety to our game, accessibility, and enjoyment is also an important factor — especially since this is the free path to earning Yareli. 

With that in mind, we have made the following changes to the Waverider Quest:

• We’ve reduced the number of challenges per page from 5 to 3, resulting in a whopping reduction of overall Quest requirements from 25 to 15 challenges!
• With fewer challenges overall, we’ve reworked the remaining challenges with the focus of making them simpler and easier to complete while still showcasing the breadth of gameplay available on your K-Drive!
• Added the Quest Challenges to the pause menu while it is active to increase visibility and reduce the inconvenience of reopening the comic every time you need to check your progress. Hovering over a challenge will also provide you with a “how-to” description, offering more details on how to complete the listed objective!
• Added Quest icon to the prompting text lines when interacting with Boon in Fortuna, to help players identify which dialogue prompt to click to proceed with the Quest stages. 
• The Yareli Comic is now accessible in the Vent Kids’ Clubhouse in Fortuna while the Waverider Quest is active. Instead of having to return to your Orbiter to check challenge progress, players have an additional option of visiting Boon and reading the comic there!
• Added a “Skip All” button to the Yareli Comic Pages for players who want to skip past the narration and read the pages themselves. 

Here’s a look at what the Waverider Quest Challenges are now: 
PAGE 1:

• Copter x 5
• Complete a K-Drive Race
• Kill 5 enemies with a Secondary Weapon while riding a K-Drive

PAGE 2

• Nose Planker or Tail Planker x 5
• Obtain 5 seconds of air-time on a K-Drive
• Get 5 Headshot Kills with a Secondary Weapon while riding a K-Drive

PAGE 3:

• Keep a K-Drive trick chain alive for 10 seconds
• Frontside Rollout x 5
• Backside Rollout x 5

PAGE 4:

• Perform 2 x10 combos
• Complete 2 different K-Drive races
  • This challenge is a rework of the “Earn X points in a K-Drive race” challenges, which were impossible to do for certain K-Drive races.
• 5 slam kills with the K-Drive
  • This works if you simply land on enemies or kill them with Slam Shockwaves!
  • We’ve also buffed Slam Shockwave radial damage from 5 to 100! Direct impacts still deal 1000 damage, but now missed maneuvers will do as much damage as a bullet jump.

PAGE 5:

• Kill 5 enemies while mid-air/during a trick chain
• Collect a total of 10,000 race points
• Earn 500 points in a K-Drive trick chain

Vox Solaris Quest
As we want to encourage new Tenno to venture to both Cetus and Fortuna, we’ve reduced the overall difficulty of Vox Solaris with them in mind:

MISSION 1:

• Reduced enemy level from 6-8 to 5, matching subsequent missions in this Quest.
• Increased Drone Health and Shields from 3k to 8k, respectively.
• Reduced the number of required kills from 30 to 20.

MISSION 2:

• Reduced enemy level from 6-8 to 5, matching subsequent missions in this Quest.

MISSION 3:

• Increased Excavator shields from 500 to 3k to match Health values.

MISSION 5:

• Reduced enemy starting level to 7 from 9.
• Increased Coolant Tower Health and Shields from 3k to 10k, respectively. 

The Glast Gambit Quest
There’s not much we can do to stop Nef Anyo’s scheming, but we did manage to negotiate the following changes to The Glast Gambit:

• Reduced the length of each Index round from 3 to 2 minutes. Since you have to play multiple Index rounds per mission, we felt it dragged on too long.
• Increased the Victory Margin from 10 to 20. While Nef may be balking at your success, we understand that the original margin was a pain point for many players, and we hope this improves that!

Natah Quest
This Quest is such an important stepping stone on your Tenno’s journey, so we are not planning on making sweeping changes. However, we have a few QOL tweaks to address Quest initiation:

• Reduced the MR requirement from 3 to 2, meaning Oculysts will now spawn in Uranus missions once you are MR 2!
• Updated the Uranus Junction challenge description to better indicate how to start this Quest. 
  • “Unlock this Quest via a special event in Grineer missions on Uranus. These events only trigger if you are Mastery Rank 2 or above.” 
• Reduced the number of Defense waves from 10 to 5 in the “Seal the Tomb” mission.

Misc. Quest Changes:

• The Archwing: Reduced Odonata build time from 10 minutes to 1 minute.
• The Limbo Theorem:  Reduced Limbo Blueprint craft times from 12 hours to 1 minute. We are also reducing the number of Proof fragments required for the Theorem Blueprints from 3 to 1. 
• Saya’s Vigil: Removed the MR 1 requirement to access Saya’s Vigil as part of our other early game journey changes. 
• Rising Tide: Reduced the Railjack Cephalon Blueprint build time from 10 mins to 1 min.
• Apostasy Prologue: Added “how to unlock” hint text in Codex to guide players to complete the Chains of Harrow Quest and install the Personal Quarters Segment.

Assassination Target Improvements

With the grind reduction pass we did on Quests, we also took a moment to look at certain Assassination Targets as well. Our goals were to reduce the overall time to complete some of these fights and improve waypointing where possible.

Ambulas:

• Reduced round timer from 120 to 90 seconds. 
• Reduced required number of Hacked Ambulas
• From 4 to 3 for single player squads
• From 5 to 4 for two player squads
• From 6 to 4 for three and four player squads. 
  For experienced squads, taking down the Ambulas could lead to long periods of waiting. With these changes, we hope to reduce the amount of overall downtime in this fight, while not making it too difficult for those who have yet to master it. 

Vay Hek:

• Reduced Invulnerability period from 10 to 6 seconds. 
• Increased maximum damage received before becoming invulnerable from 25% to 35%. 
  These changes should increase the frequency at which Vay Hek becomes vulnerable to damage, therefore speeding up the fight!

Tyl Regor:

• Waypoint on Tyl Regor now disappears when he is hiding.
  • Previously it would direct players to a locked door, possibly leading to confusion.
• Added Waypoint Markers to Manics while they are active. 

Cetus Wisp and Necramech Acquisition Changes

Another part of a Tenno’s path is improving their gear, especially once they’ve unlocked their Operator. In addition to the Focus Point acquisition changes covered above in the System Changes section, we’ve made the following tweaks to improve player acquisition for Amps and Necramechs:

• Cetus Wisps no longer disappear! These are crucial crafting costs for many early-game Amps, and while we did add the ability to purchase this resource from Onkko at Rank 5 Quills, this change should improve player acquisition earlier on in their journey. 
  • As similar pickups like Scintillant and Toroids were added to the game, this timed mechanic for Cetus Wisps felt unnecessarily complicated in contrast. 
  • The Cetus Wisp description was changed in Update 33.6.8 and now the functionally is live to match its new state: “Most common at night, these stone lifeforms are drawn to shorelines touched by the Eidolon. They linger around lakes on the Plains of Eidolon at all hours. Their origin remains mysterious.”
• Voidrig crafting costs have been updated to require Cambion Drift resources only. Some of the resources required investment in other Hub Syndicates and Railjack, adding further obstacles for players on their journey to their Necramech. The updated crafting changes are as follows:
  • Voidrig Casing – replaced Venerdo Alloy with 5 Cranial Foremount
  • Voidrig Engine – replaced Isos with 6 Cabochon Embolos
  • Voidrig Capsule – replaced Marquise Veridos with 50 Devolved Namalon
  • Voidrig Weapon Pod – replaced Charc Electroplax with 6 Trapezium Xenorhast
• Added Damaged Necramech Components to Loid’s Store for purchase. Players can purchase Damaged Necramech Casings, Engines, Pods, and Weapon Pods from the Necraloid Syndicate at Rank 1 for 2,500 Standing each. 
  • With the number of components needed to build your Necramech, the drop tables may not always be in your favor. Similar to Voruna and Citrine, we are adding the ability to purchase missing components directly from a vendor as a way to offset the grind.

Please share any bug reports and feedback related to any and all of the above New Player Path Changes in the official Abyss of Dagath subforums.

 

ACCESSIBILITY & HUD IMPROVEMENTS
This section covers the following topics (in order): 

• Character Highlighting System
• Conservation Accessibility and QOL Improvements
• Auto Melee 
• Buffs and Debuffs in Pause Menu
• New Update History Screen
• Other UI / HUD Additions and Changes

 

Character Highlighting System
The enemies you face in Warframe tend to be well-themed to their tilesets — while this adds visual cohesion to the game, it also means that your foes can sometimes blend into the landscape. To improve enemy and ally visibility, we’ve added a new “Character Highlighting” section to our Accessibility menu. 

With this new system, players can now apply a Highlight on both enemies and allies, with a variety of customization options. Whether you want to improve avatar visibility or simply turn them a fun color (or both!), you will be able to select the hue and intensity to your liking through the various settings:

• Enemy Highlights Toggle – Toggling this on applies the Highlight Aura to all enemies.
• Enemy Highlight Color – Select the color of choice using the Accessibility Color Palette or any other owned Color palette.
• Enemy Highlight Intensity – Choose how bright you’d like the Highlight to be using this sliding scale. 
• Ally Highlights – Toggling this on applies the Highlight Aura to all allies, including but not limited to: Squad Members, Companions / Sentinels, and Specters.
• Self Highlight – Apply the Ally Highlight settings to your player avatar.
  • This will persist anywhere you take your Warframe or Tenno, such as your Orbiter, Quests, etc!
• Ally Highlight Color – Select the color of choice using the Accessibility Color Palette or any other owned Color palette.
• Ally Highlight Intensity – Choose how bright you’d like the Highlight to be using this sliding scale. 

Interacting with the Color and Intensity options will preview the effect on your Warframe in the menu screen, giving you an idea of what it’ll look like in-mission!

 

A few key characteristics of note for this system:

• “Friendly” enemy units such as those seen in Invasion missions or those affected by Revenant’s Thralls / Nyx’s Mind Control units / etc. will use the Ally Highlight settings to differentiate them from your true foes.
• Character Highlight Settings are accessible in-mission should you need to make any tweaks on the fly!
• Our intentions are for the majority of Quest cutscenes you will not see Character Highlights in action, except if Self Highlights are applied. Currently this is not the case and all allies and enemies are highlighted. We have a code fix that will come with our next Cert build.

Conservation Accessibility and QOL Improvements

Conservation has had a long storied history with quality of life and accessibility changes, but we can confidently say that this is the biggest batch of improvements yet! Because there’s so much to cover, we’ve broken it down per Conservation stage: 

Icons on the map:

• The animal’s name now appears when hovering over the trail icons in the advanced map!
• Holding your Tranq Rifle will now show the icons of the closest Trail Start Points in your minimap!
  • Only one icon will appear per animal, to help you better plan your route on foot. 
• Each animal trail icon now uses the animal’s silhouette (instead of the generic pawprint) and is color-coded for quicker visual identification! The hue matches that of their Echo-Lure.
  • This slipped out a little earlier than planned with Echoes of Duviri (Update 33.6)!
• Players can now select an Icon on the advanced map to spawn a special waypoint marker to the Trail Start Point. This marker will persist even after putting your Tranq rifle away!

Trail Start Points:
It all starts with scat! Unfortunately, many trail start points can blend into the landscape and otherwise be difficult to find. We’ve made the following changes with this in mind:

• Trail Start Points will now be highlighted with a diamond marker with the Tranq Rifle equipped. Simply holding the Tranq Rifle will show these markers at 20m away, while aiming down the scope will reveal them from up to 50m away.
  • This diamond marker functionality already existed with Echo-Lures, but we are extending it to Tranq Rifles as well. 
• Trail Start Points will now glow similar to footprints when viewed through the Tranq Rifle scope.      

Follow Tracks:

• Updated our footprint shader to improve animal footprint visibility and address issues of them disappearing below rocky terrain.
• Once interacting with a Trail Start Point, a yellow area highlight will appear in your minimap over the last section of the tracks you found. Additionally, we have added diamond markers at key checkpoints in the footprint path that appear when looking down the Tranq Rifle scope.
  • If you happen to lose the trail or get turned around, these two mechanics should help you!     

Locate and Tranquilize:

• Adjusted the audio and visual cues from the Tranq Rifle to play more or less frequently depending on how far away the animal is.
  • The more often they appear, the closer you are! 
• Ally Character Highlights will apply to Conservation targets as an extra way to distinguish them from the landscape, should you wish to use that system!
• Added a flashing paw icon that points you in the direction of the animal when looking down the Tranquilizer scope.
  • With the successful use of the Echo-Lure, the replying animal call already comes from the direction that they spawn in. We’re adding this new visual clue for Conservationists in addition to the existing audio cue! 
  • Note: This functionality also applies to free-roaming wildlife you find on the Landscape, no Echo-Lure required!

Auto Melee 

Adding an Auto Melee button has been a frequently requested topic over the years as a way to mitigate repeated button presses. Your days of spamming E are over with the new Auto-Melee functionality! Here’s how it works:

With Auto Melee, players can trigger melee swings through the familiar repeated melee inputs, or they can simply hold the melee input button to repeatedly swing their melee weapon for as long as that input is held. Combos can be executed while auto-meleeing by simply adding the required inputs — i.e. to start Slide Attacking, simply start sliding while holding the Melee Input, etc.

In short, the Warframe melee that you know isn’t changing – the only difference is that instead of needing to press your E hundreds of times, you only need to press (and hold!) it once. 

Our goal is not to alter the main way you play Warframe melee if you prefer the precision of individual inputs – auto-meleeing is an additional way to play the game. This mechanic has been released as a permanent functionality of the Melee system, as we’ve designed this so that both individual input and auto-melee can co-exist without issue. 

Since Auto-Melee is removing a lot of the active element of meleeing, we are working on an addition to this system called “Perfect Heavy Attacks” that aim to release with Whispers in the Walls. 

Exclusions to Auto Melee
Due to the mechanics of Auto Melee mirroring that of thrown melee weapons, the following weapons will not have Auto Meleeing enabled for them:

• All Glaive Weapon Types     
• Wolf Sledge

 
Buffs and Debuffs in Pause Menu

The meme of players giving their squadmates enough buff indicators to look like an MMORPG screen is real and valid. Worry not! We have not changed the buffs you get, we’re simply adding the ability to see what the actual Buff and Debuff Icons mean when entering your Pause Menu:

As you can see in the screenshot above, hovering over the icon will show you the effect’s name and possibly the description. We’ve done our best to add descriptions for Arcanes, Mods, Decrees, Focus Abilities, and Weapon Abilities in time for this update. As the majority of descriptions are still being added, we ask that any bug reporting is done on incorrect or incomplete descriptions instead of missing ones! 
 

New Update History Screen 

Whether you’re jumping straight into a new Update or returning to the game after a break, our New Update History Screen is designed to contextualize and highlight the latest content. This screen offers a variety of new tools for us to showcase everything that is available in our major update releases. 

    
In the screenshot above, you’ll see various sections designed to contextualize and highlight released in the specific update, including:

• General overview blurb for the update!
  • Familiar as this is what we’ve done for past updates. 
• Patch highlights, which can be interacted with to reveal a pop-up window with lengthier descriptions of new features, game modes, etc., released in the update!
• Direct link to the update notes on our website. 
• New item showcase to highlight new content available in the market.
• “How to Play” button that will either direct you to a tutorial or take you straight to the Star Chart to engage with the new content. 
• Update History at the bottom of this screen, allowing you to look at Update Screens for previous releases.
  • Abyss of Dagath and the Seven Crimes of Kullervo are currently available!

Where to find this screen
This new Update History Screen will present to players the first time they log into the game following an update, but it can also be accessed any time at two locations:

• In the pause menu above the Nightwave button.
• Via the new banner over the News console in your Orbiter!

      
Other UI / HUD Additions and Changes

• Added a Weapon Trait Display in the Arsenal! 
  • Weapons with specific traits or passives now display this information in the Upgrade Arsenal screen of the respective weapon. These traits were often hidden in weapon descriptions or otherwise required players to learn about them via outside sources – now you can directly see any special traits a weapon has and incorporate that knowledge into your builds. 
    • Each and every single trait was written for this update, which means some may have slipped by! Please let us know if there are weapons missing their own trait description. Thank you!
• This new Trait display is placed where the previous “Rank Bonuses” information lived. We have moved the “Rank Bonuses” section of the Upgrade Screen just above the Ability Icons, where players can still access that information on-hover. 
• Added a preview feature when adjusting the Visual Effects Intensity slider.
• You can now swap Incarnon Evolutions in the Arsenal! 
  • Note: You will still need to visit Cavalero to unlock each Evolution, but once that’s done, you can swap to your heart’s delight from the comfort of your Orbiter.  
• Updated the reticle’s reaction when hitting headshots and weak points to a much more visible and red indicator. 
• Added a new “Damage Number” color slot for non-critical damage. Default is white but can be customized in the “Customize HUD Colors” settings.
• Players can now see how many open Slots they own when hovering over an item that requires Slots in the Foundry! The number and slot type will appear at the bottom of the Foundry screen when hovering over an applicable Blueprint.
  • Knowing how many open Slots you have is an important part of expanding your Arsenal, but this information can be hard to find if you don’t know where to look! This change allows players to get that information much more quickly, and offers more transparency on how the Slot mechanic works for those unfamiliar with it!
• Railjack Crew members can now be customized by hovering over their character models. Doing so will display all of the options in a single menu, a much more convenient way to personalize your team! 
• Added a new pop-up when picking up Convergence Orbs to explain Convergence functionality. 
  • The message “Eliminate enemies to earn bonus Focus for the next 45s” will now appear briefly below the bonus Focus pop-up. For more information on the bonus Focus pop-up, read on to the Focus Lens Conversion Buff section. A follow-up message will now also appear once you have reached the daily cap. 
• Added a “Claim Rewards” indicator on the Nightwave Button accessed via the pause menu when you have a Nightwave reward pending. 
• Removed the ability to see how many Trades Remaining the other player has in the Trading Interface. 
  • This change was the result of fixing a bug where the Trade Remaining number was not accurate. Ultimately it was decided that this information is not really relevant for other players to know, so it was removed.
• Added drop shadow to Buff Icons in the HUD to improve their visibility, especially when in light colored environments. 
• Added new VFX feedback when Health and Shields are restored. The HUD color (default gray) is also customizable with the new “Restored Shields and Health” option in the Customize HUD Colors Accessibility settings.

COMPANION REWORK (PHASE 1)

This section covers the following topics (in order): 

• Companion Immortality 
• Companion Stat Changes
• Companion Healing 
• Companion Mod Changes & Additions
• And more! 

Your furry, robotic, fleshy, and everything in between pals have received a rework! Read on to learn how the way you use, Mod, and interact with your Companions has changed in this first phase of the Companion system overhaul. 
 

Our high-level objectives for this Companion rework are:

1. Make Companions more viable in high-level gameplay by making them immortal. 
Companions can no longer die! This avoids frustrating scenarios where you are relying on your Companion to provide some feature or bonus only to have them get removed from play. The base stats of Companions have also been increased significantly to help them in difficult missions.

2. Introduce more interactive Mods that offer ways to play alongside your Companion instead of it being mostly autonomous like a specter.

3. Changes to many Companion Mods, mostly to support the first two goals of removing death states and improving basic survivability. 
Some Mods were inconsistent in their naming or stats, and we have improved this. We have rebalanced some Mods that players felt were not good enough, or ones that we’ve observed are SO good that they are considered “essential.”
 

COMPANION IMMORTALITY 
We’ve all seen the memes with people giving their Companions funny names, only to see the message over and over every few minutes: “Your Companion is down!”  Dying Kavats and Kubrows have been demanding attention on your HUD, and spontaneously combusting Sentinels have been robbing you of your Vacuum and Animal Instinct for years.

All that changes with this update. Going forward, Companions will still have Health and Shield values, and they can be knocked out, but they will not die if you fail to revive them. When they reach zero Health, Companions will instead become Incapacitated for a base duration of 60 seconds. All Companions will automatically revive at the end of their Incapacitate period, and there is no limit to the number of times this can happen. Upon reviving all Companions have 5 seconds of invulnerability to get back on their feet safely! 

Here are the specifics to how each Companion behaves while Incapacitation: 

• Kavats, Kubrows, MOAs, and Predasites will now collapse on the ground and can be, optionally, manually revived to get them back into action quicker.
• Sentinels cannot be manually revived, but they will fly along with you in a damaged state while performing their automatic self-revive.
• Vulpaphylas still have their usual tricks instead, where they morph into a Sentinel-like state for a short period and then recover.
• Khora’s Venari still uses its usual behavior of temporarily disappearing if defeated, but you can override its time-out by spending Energy to cast her Venari Ability.
• Worth noting that Vacuum and Animal Instinct work while the Companion is Incapacitated.
• With Incapacitation, Companions can now recover from being downed in Arbitration missions, instead of staying dead for the duration of the mission. 

Several Mods have been modified or introduced that also change when or how your Companion deals with Incapacitation – see the “Companion Mod Changes & Additions” section below for specifics.
 

COMPANION STAT CHANGES
Two broad changes have been made with regard to your Companion’s base stats to increase their staying power: 

1. Health, Shields and Armor have been refactored across the board. 
This simple numeric buff was made with the goal of increasing Companion survivability. This also means that the choice of whether to use, for example, Enhanced Vitality or Linked Vitality, will depend on your Warframe choice instead of the Linked Mod always being strictly superior.

2. Non-Sentinel Companions now gain their full Health and Shield values immediately when you acquire them. 
Historically Health and Shield values would increase as your Companion ranked up, which you could see as “Rank Bonuses” in the Upgrades screen. We’ve removed this behavior and simply given Companions what would end up being their Rank 30 values at Rank 0. This should let you immediately take your Companions on more difficult missions after earning them!

Including both the removal of Companion Rank bonuses, and the base increase to stats, the following lists the stat changes for all Companions at Rank 0:

CONSISTENCY IN COMPANION HEALING

Previously, the Mod “Link Health” could cause your Companions to gain some of the healing that your Warframe did. This invisible feature was not indicated by the card, and it was never explained what forms of healing worked or why. Additionally, Companions were using some of the same mechanics that things like mission objectives did, which limited the effects of some healing or defensive powers. We’ve decided to remove both of these obscure mechanics and restrictions.

Companions will no longer gain Health when your Warframe does if using certain Health-absorbing powers together with the Mod “Link Vitality” (formerly Link Health). The restrictions of the following abilities and features, as they apply to granting Health, Shields, or Damage Resistance to Companions have been removed:

• Nezha’s Warding Halo
• Trinity’s Blessing
• Ember’s Immolation
• Garuda’s Blood Altar
• Gara’s Splinter Storm
• Styanax’ Intrepid Stand
• Mirage’s Eclipse
• Volt’s Discharge
• Baruuk’s Desolate Hands
• Harrow’s Penance
• Harrow’s Thurible
• Equinox’ Mend & Maim
• Sancti Magistar’s Heavy Attack Heal
• Vazarin’s Protective Sling
   

COMPANION MOD CHANGES & ADDITIONS

Changes To Existing Mods
Several Mods have been modified to interact with how your Companion deals with Incapacitation. 

Stats below are shown at Max Rank.

Spoiler

Sentinel Survivability Mod Changes:

• Calculated Redirection changed from max 275% Shields to max 250% Shields
• Enhanced Vitality changed from max 220% Health to max 250% Health
• Metal Fiber changed from max 110% Armor to max 250% Armor
• Regen has been changed significantly. Because your Sentinels no longer die after reaching zero Health, Regen instead reduces the Incapacitation time of your Sentinel by 20 seconds, and provides 10 seconds of Invulnerability after reviving.
• Primed Regen provides a greater benefit: Incapacitation time is reduced by 35 seconds, and provides 10 seconds of Invulnerability after reviving.
• Sacrifice still allows your Sentinel to automatically revive you; however, the Sentinel now goes into Incapacitation instead of being destroyed. Adds 15 seconds to your Sentinel’s Incapacitation time.
• Repair Kit has been changed from providing your Sentinel with 6 Health per second to 18 Health per second.

Companion Survivability Mod Changes:

• Link Health has been renamed to Link Vitality, and changed from max 165% of your Warframe’s Health shared with Companion, to max 125% shared Health.
• Link Shields has been renamed to Link Redirection, and changed from max 110% of your Warframe’s Shield shared with Companion, to max 125% shared Shield.
• Link Armor has been renamed to Link Fiber, and changed from max 110% of your Warframe’s Armor shared with Companion, to max 125% shared Armor.
• Medi-Pet Kit has been changed from providing your Companion with 6 Health per second and 72% Bleedout Reduction, to providing 12 Health per second and reducing Incapacitation time by 15 seconds.
• Accelerated Deflection (+90% Shield Recharge) has been changed from being only equipped on Sentinels, to the Robotic category, which means it is now also compatible with Hounds and MOAs. Additionally, it also provides -45% Shield Recharge Delay.

Other Companion Mod Changes:

• Djinn’s “Reawaken” has been changed. Now it will reduce Djinn’s Incapacitation time by 6 seconds for each Energy Orb you pick up. Djinn will also revive with 300 points of Overshield for each collected Orb. Djinn’s max Overshields increase by 900. 
  • Since every Sentinel now has a free immortality feature, Djinn needed something to be special again.  
• Pack Leader has been changed. Instead of healing your Companion by 36% of melee damage inflicted, it now restores 100 Health per melee hit. Excess healing becomes Overguard instead, with a maximum of 1200 Overguard.
• Primed Pack Leader increases Pack Leader effect to 183 Health restored per hit, and increases Overguard cap to 2200.
  • Pack Leader’s healing was so strong that, functionally, any upgraded melee weapon would fully heal your Companion in a single hit. You would hit an enemy for several thousand damage, and your Companion would proportionately receive thousands of Health. This change tries to make the healing values more sensible so that you can heal your Companion efficiently but not *instantly*. By letting you overflow into Overguard, it also provides some extra ability to tank large hits.
• Sentinel Sanctuary and Companion Shelter Mods have been improved. The shield globe, while the player is performing a revive, has been increased from 600 Health to 1800 Health.
• Self Destruct has been modified. Formerly this would cause Sentinels to cause 600 Blast damage in an 18-meter radius on death. Now Sentinels cause radial damage on Incapacitation instead.
• Loyal Companion has been reworked entirely. Formerly it provided a 90% Bleedout-Link so that your Companion had a longer period of time where it could be revived. Since Companion death is no longer a factor: Loyal Companion applies 75% Damage Resistance to your Warframe for 10 seconds, and causes your Companion to become invulnerable and taunt enemies to draw fire to itself for 30 seconds, if your Warframe falls below 35% Health. There is a 60-second cooldown between activations.
• (Parazon) Hard Reset: Changed from instantly reviving your Companion if you achieved 3 Mercy Kills within 40 seconds, to reducing your Companion’s Incapacitation time by 15 seconds on each Mercy Kill.
  • We found that this was fairly difficult to achieve. Changing it to allow incremental progress makes it more reliably beneficial to use this.
• Fired Up has been both improved and simplified. Previously this would require that your Sentinel has been shooting continuously for some period of time, and then added a Heat damage multiplier. This has been changed so that the Sentinel gains a 5% bonus Heat damage on every weapon hit up to 100%. The bonus resets after 5 seconds if the Sentinel has not landed a hit during that time. 
  • This Mod was difficult to understand and only worked if the Sentinel weapon already did some amount of Heat damage. The mechanics are now more intuitive and the bonus applies the same way adding a Mod would, so your Sentinel’s weapon doesn’t need to already do Heat damage to benefit.
• Spare Parts: Previously Spare Parts would cause Sentinels to drop rare materials on death. This Mod now causes your Sentinel to mark an enemy for 5 seconds, choosing a new target every 15 seconds. Killing the marked enemy increases their loot drop chance by 200%.
  • Since Companions no longer die, we wanted to change their resource drop to something that was more interactive and rewards combat instead of your Sentinel randomly exploding.

New Companion Mods
Referring back to the introduction, one of our goals with the Companion rework is to add opportunities for the player to work together with the Companion. Instead of a Mod that only affects your Companion, we looked for ways that you and your Companion could amplify each other.

The following new Mods aim to do just that!

These Mods are available to acquire at the Conservation vendors in Cetus (Master Teasonai), Fortuna (The Business), and the Necralisk (Son). 

*Stats below are shown at Max Rank. 

Available In Master Teasonai’s Offerings (Cetus): 

Tandem Bond 
Companion melee hits increase your combo by 6. Heavy Attacks increase Companion melee damage by 30% of melee damage multiplied by your combo multiplier for 30s. 

Covert Bond
Finisher and Mercy Kills grant your Companion 10s of stealth that attacks will not disrupt, up to 60s.

Mystic Bond
After your Companion uses Abilities with cooldowns 5 times, you may cast a Warframe Ability without expending Energy. 

Restorative Bond 
Health Orbs restore 60 more Health and reduce Companion Recovery by 3s. 

Available In The Business’ Offerings (Fortuna): 

Aerial Bond
Airborne kills decrease Companion Recovery timer by 3s and 9s for headshot kills. Companion creates a field of Cold that increases up to 35% Status chance and 10m radius while Warframe is airborne, lasting for 3s after returning to the ground.

Astral Bond 
Damage dealt by Operator or Drifter grants 120% Void damage to your Companion’s attacks for 10s. Companion Void damage adds +30% Amp and Energy Efficiency to Operator or Drifter for 5s.

Vicious Bond 
Companion melee attacks strip 15% of enemy armor. Melee attacks on enemies recently damaged by Abilities apply the effect in a 9m radius. 

Contagious Bond 
When your Companion kills an enemy afflicted with a Status Effect, 50% of the Status Effect spreads to other enemies within 9m.  

Manifold Bond (Robotic)* 
Companion Precept Mods apply Status Effects from Companion weapons. Killing enemies with 3 or more unique Status Effects reduces Companion Ability cooldowns by 3s.

*Work is still ongoing for this mod, we are aware of some Robotic Companion Precepts which do not trigger the bonus Status Effects.
 

FURTHER COMPANION QUALITY-OF-LIFE CHANGES
A few further changes that are worth mentioning:

• Sentinels now avoid damage from Arson Eximus explosions if you also avoid damage with a successful dodge.
• The improvement to Shield Gating where it now scales with maximum Shield strength and fully resets as long as you have any Shield charge at all, also applies to Companions.
• Companions can now gain Overguard (behaves the same as player Overguard) and Overshield. 
• Health and Energy conversion will now enable picking up Orbs at max capacity. This applies to the Equilibrium Mod as well. 
• Added map icons for each Companion type to help identify their location. 
• Reduced the amount of Alloy Plates required to craft the Kavat Incubator Upgrade Segment from 120,000 to 60,000. 
• Improved Companion HUD information: 
  • Removed notifications for when other players’ Companions are downed (Incapacitated) to reduce HUD noise. You will now only get notified for your own Companion. 
  • Your Companion now has its very own icon in the HUD. 
• Updated the Imprints error message to be more accurate: 
  • Was: “Cannot make imprints of pets when they have not yet matured. Wait for active pet to become an adult before creating imprint.”
  • Now: “Cannot make imprints of pets when they have not yet matured. Mature to an adult before creating imprint.”
• Oberon’s Passive now applies to all Companion Types.
  • Previously only Kavats, Kubrows, Predasites, and Vulpaphylas would receive +25% Health, Armor, and Shield links, plus the 1 instant revive per mission.
• Companions are no longer able to be staggered! 
  • Because staggering would often stop your pets in-place, it opened them up to being re-staggered, which then often led to their swift demise. This should fix that issue, and allow your furry and not-so-furry friends to have more impact in-mission.

HYDROID REWORK

For those of you with an interest in the sea, who wish to use the murky depths to drown your foes, the wait is over! Hydroid has received a rework! 

As with many of our Warframe Reworks, a Forma Inbox will be sent to all players at 11:30am ET on October 18th after Abyss of Dagath launches. 

The goal of the Hydroid rework was to keep his unique style while making him both easier to use and bringing his power more in line with other Warframes. This means changing how his abilities work through changes to their damage types, removing charging mechanics, and making enemies easier to hit while they are wrapped up in his abilities. Additionally, it meant reworking his passive and removing the Undertow ability, replacing it with the new Plunder ability.

For a closer look at our deadly marauder of the deep, let’s dive right in!

 

Changing Impact and Magnetic Damage to Corrosive Damage and Status 

Previously, Tempest Barrage and Tidal Surge both dealt Impact damage, while Tentacle Swarm dealt Magnetic Damage. These have been changed to Corrosive Damage, which can apply Corrosive Status. Corroding Barrage has been a widely used Augment Mod by Hydroid players, which caused Corrosive Status for Tempest Barrage, and due to its popularity, we looked to incorporate its effect into Hydroid at a base level.

We felt changing Damage to Corrosive Damage in Hydroid’s abilities makes them more thematic to the sea while also incorporating Corroding Barrage’s current effect in a meaningful way. With this change in mind, Corroding Barrage will now apply Viral Status instead of Corrosive – more details on that below.

Passive Changes
Hydroid’s previous Passive had a chance to spawn a tentacle when performing a melee slam attack. We have removed that passive entirely and replaced it with an entirely new effect.

The nature of Hydroid’s previous Passive pushed players to a very specific playstyle (regular usage of melee slam attacks), while not guaranteeing anything useful from each individual slam. We wanted to make the passive feel more reliable and impactful.

New Passive: Enemies damaged by Hydroid are more vulnerable to Corrosion Status, with initial status reducing armor by 50%. 

Hydroid’s new Passive affects an enemy once Hydroid damages them, lasting until their death. It makes the first instance of Corrosive Status on an enemy remove 50% of their Armor rather than 26%. Not only does this make the first Corrosive Status stronger, but it also means Corrosion Status can reach 100% Armor Reduction with full stacks!

To clarify, this means Hydroid does not need to apply all, or even any, of the Corrosive Status Effects on an enemy. As long as Hydroid has damaged the enemy, the Corrosive Status Effects can be applied from any source and will receive the benefit.

You can see the Passive in action in the Ability clips below.

Removing Charge Mechanics
In an effort to make Hydroid more approachable, we have removed the charge mechanic on Tempest Barrage and Tentacle Swarm. The full charge values will now apply baseline to each cast of the abilities.

For example, previously, an uncharged Tentacle Swarm would have 40% of the tentacles and 33% of the radius compared to a fully charged cast. With this change, both tentacle count and radius will always be the maximum, what a fully charged cast was previously.

This change makes Hydroid’s play more fluid, with more time spent attacking rather than charging abilities for their maximum effect.

Ability Changes

Tempest Barrage:

• Damage dealt causes enemies to stagger, rather than ragdoll.
  • This should make enemies easier to kill, as they will stay in the range of Hydroid’s other abilities and be more open to Headshots. 
• The Corroding Barrage Augment Mod has been renamed Viral Tempest and now has a chance to apply a Viral Status Effect, rather than Corrosive Status Effect. It also no longer grants Ability Strength.
  • Changing the Impact Damage of Tempest Barrage to Corrosive Damage meant the Corrosive Status Effect from the Augment was already included. We changed this to Viral to maintain its relevance with the other changes. In light of the punch Corrosive and Viral packs in comparison to Corrosive and Impact, the Ability Strength buff was removed for balance purposes. 
• Added new sound effects to go with the ability.

 

Tempest Barrage staggers enemies instead of ragdoll, making them easier to target. 
 

Tidal Surge:

• Allows some steering of the wave for more control over where Hydroid and his enemies end up when the ability is finished.
• Exiting Tidal Surge early by jumping now also works while airborne.
• Tidal Surge’s base speed has been increased and will no longer scale off Ability Range.
  • This change was made to ensure controlling the wave behaves consistently, including where enemies are deposited when the ability ends.
• Tidal Surge no longer violently flings carried enemies at the end of the surge, and will instead deposit them where the surge ends. 
  • This should make Tidal Surge a better ability for grouping enemies and quick killing, as opposed to flinging them across the room.
• Tidal Surge now applies Corrosive Status Effects to enemies based on how long they are carried by its waves.
• Tidal Surge now cleanses all of Hydroid’s negative Status Effects.
  • This brings one of the benefits from the Tidal Impunity Augment Mod into the ability directly, granting Hydroid some survivability in his abilities with Undertow’s removal.
• Added new sound effects to go with the ability.

 

Tidal Surge now carries enemies with the wave, depositing them where the wave ends instead of throwing them forward.

Undertow (Replaced with Plunder):

• This ability has been removed and replaced with Plunder.
  • Undertow was an ability which we feel made Hydroid a bit less fun to play as, or play with. There are two main reasons we decided to replace this ability:
  • It forced the player to remain stationary, while many objectives rely on regular movement.
  • It absorbed enemies without instantly killing them, which could lead to instances of hiding enemies that a teammate was trying to kill.

Plunder:

• A new ability added to Hydroid’s third ability slot.
• All enemies in range will have Corrosive Status Effects remove their armor permanently, increasing Hydroid’s armor and granting bonus Corrosive damage to weapons. 
  • This ability is stronger based on the number of Corrosive Status Effects applied to the enemies affected by Plunder.
  • This means with a full stack of Corrosive Status Effects, their Armor will be removed permanently.
• The Curative Undertow Augment Mod has been renamed Rousing Plunder and it causes Plunder to heal Hydroid and his allies within Affinity Range.

 

Plunder removes Armor based on Corrosive Status Effects on an enemy. It also provides an Armor and Damage Buff, tracked in the lower-right corner of the HUD.

Tentacle Swarm:

• Now holds enemies in a steadier position, making it easier to eliminate enemies locked down by Tentacles.
• If a tentacle’s held enemy dies, it will move to grab a new enemy in the Tentacle Swarm’s area of effect.
• Updated Tentacle sound and visual effects.

 

Tentacle Swarm now holds enemies still for easy targeting, rather than violently shaking them about.

Please share any bug reports and feedback related to any and all of the above Hydroid Changes in the official Abyss of Dagath subforums.

 

ZAUBA & COMMODORE PRIME SUIT CONVERSION 

 

As part of our ongoing efforts to convert Operator Skins for Drifter use, the Operator Zauba and Commodore Prime Suits can now be equipped onto your Drifter!

 

*Raven Drifter is seen in the above image. 

Future purchases of these customizations will now include the matching Drifter variants. For those of you that already own these collections, the Drifter versions will be added to your inventory upon log-in. 
 

Explosive Barrel Changes

Explosive Barrels on paper may seem like a blast, but their impact in-mission is not quite up to snuff. In this update, we’ve brought these environmental hazards back with a bang with the following changes:

• Explosive Barrels now deal a % of an enemy’s Health to help them scale with higher level content. Players will receive a reduced amount of damage from Barrels to prevent deadly accidents — on par with the amount of damage they would have received before this change.
  • Previously, these barrels dealt a flat damage value which had little impact on high-level foes. 
• LN2 Barrels (Cold) and Spent Radium Barrels (Radiation) will now deal full stacks of Cold and Radiation Status Effects respectively for enemies standing within the shockwave.
• Removed the 0.35s delay before explosion upon Barrel destruction. 
• Reduced the range of explosion from 15m to 10m and added scaling damage values based on how close the enemy is to the Barrel.
• Improved overall VFX of the Barrel explosion to showcase the blast radius, and make the kills feel punchier. 
• Fixed explosion line of sight checks being blocked by other enemies. Explosions will still respect environmental obstacles (walls, etc.), but now enemies within the blast radius will not survive simply because they were standing behind someone else!

Additions: 

• Added two new Reward Options to the Steel Path Circuit Reward Path: Rivens and Kuva!
  • With Drifter Opportunity Intrinsics at Rank 9, you will be presented with reward options of a Veiled Riven or 20k Kuva in addition to the weekly Incarnon rotation for your Circuit Reward Path!
  • Just like the Incarnon Geneses, the order you pick these rewards will determine what Rank you need to complete in the Circuit to earn them.
• Added VFX when toggling between the Normal and Steel Path modes in the Star Chart screen.
• Added several new post-Quest voice lines to Saya in Cetus! 
• Added a sound effect to mid-air rolls. Your aerial rolling will be silent no more!
• Added new Ordis’ lines from the Cephalon Joke-a-Thon Contest winners. 
• Added the Argo & Vel Blueprint to Simaris’ wares for those who own the Drifter variant!
   

Changes: 

• Added a popup to indicate how you are friends with someone upon hovering over their alias in the Friends/Clan screen. If you are friends with someone through Warframe’s Cross Platform Play, it will appear as “Warframe Friend”. If you are friends with someone via your platforms’ friend feature, it will appear as “[Insert Platform] Friend”. 
• Ground Finishers now ignore the Armor value of enemies as other types of Finishers do. This affects the following: 
  • Hunter’s Bonesaw now grants 120% Finisher Damage instead of Status Chance since Ground Finishers now deal Finisher Damage which does not proc Status.  
• Fixed several cases where the game was not recognizing a Ground Finisher for the activation of Mods and Arcanes. The intent is that Ground Finishers, Stealth Finishers and Parazon Finishers should be equivalent unless explicitly stated otherwise:
  • Duviri Decrees will now accept Ground Finishers (Tamm’s Fortune, Brimon’s Nerve, Molten Mettle)
  • Inaros’ Desiccation Curse augment will now create sand minions on Ground Finishers
  • Arcane Trickery will now activate from Ground Finishers
  • Arcane Ultimatum will now activate from Ground Finishers
  • Exodia Might will now activate from Ground Finishers
• Improved the accuracy of water ripples when running through a body of water.
• Voruna’s Ulfrun’s Descent kills will now count as Melee for synergy with Lycath’s Hunt Health orb drops. 
• We’ve revamped how the game audio mix is handled when casting Warframe abilities and firing weapons to improve spatial sound awareness. Now, you’ll be able to hear the environment and gameplay sounds much more clearly in certain scenarios. We also fixed some issues with certain abilities and weapons causing gameplay sounds to playback too quietly. 
• Gaining Health, Shields, and Overguard now provide more gradual feedback in the health bar instead of instantly changing.
• Improved the Decree rerolling randomization to prevent the same Decrees from appearing again after rerolls. 
• Improved the Incarnon UI VFX to better indicate when charges have been depleted. 
• In preparation for the introduction of Cross Platform Play Clans, the way resources are refunded from canceling Dojo Rooms and Decorations has been changed to ensure parity between Cross Platform and non-Cross Platform Play Clans. Instead of the resources returning to the contributing players’ inventories, it will now be refunded to the Clan Vault. 
• Buffs or mechanics that are triggered upon Health or Energy Orb pickup can now be triggered if your Health or Energy pools are at max. This includes Mods like Equilibrium!
  • If your buffs are fully stacked, you will no longer pick up these Orbs at max Health/Energy. 
• Orokin Vaults on Deimos can now be highlighted by the Orokin Eye Air Support ability.
• Adjusted Auto-Install prioritization based on new Warframe Health and Shield values, as well as checking for Shield Recharge Delay. 
• Operator Amps can now interrupt Dax abilities in the Undercroft similar to how weapon fire can. 
• Ash and Stalker (playable) can now cast Teleport on Defense objectives. 
  • This was previously fixed in Hotfix 33.0.7 due to the issues and inconsistencies with the landing spot (getting stuck in objective upon landing). We have now improved the targeting to prevent that and have re-enabled it! 
• Updated the Imprints error message to be more accurate: 
  • Was: “Cannot make imprints of pets when they have not yet matured. Wait for active pet to become an adult before creating imprint.”
  • Now: “Cannot make imprints of pets when they have not yet matured. Mature to an adult before creating imprint.”
• Grand Master Founder aliases are now highlighted in the Relays’ Honored Grand Masters panels. 
• Updated Entropy Burst and Napalm Grenade’s descriptions to clarify that it applies after Mods like Rifle Aptitude by changing “Base Status Chance” to “Final Status Chance”. 
  • Was: +20 Base Status Chance, +1 ‘Entropy’
  • Now: +20 Final Status Chance, +1 ‘Entropy’ 
• Updated some Archwing HUD assets with higher resolution ones. 
• The Secondary Outburst Arcane has received some overall buffs! Additionally, we’ve fixed it not functioning properly and its description being inaccurate. The new description is as follows:
  • On swapping to Secondary Weapon, consume all Combo Multipliers to increase Secondary Weapon Critical Chance and Critical Damage by 5/7/9/12/16/20% per Combo consumed for 30s.
• Changed the Thermal Sunder Helminth ability to have an altered attribute of “Scaling from Heat Status on enemies capped to 10x ability damage.” 
  • A deeper dive into its Subsumed version on other Warframes showed us there was a Damage Over Time issue where Heat procs were scaling with unlimited exponential damage, therefore, we have implemented the cap. 
• Changed the Faction Damage Mod (includes Bane, Cleanse, Expel, Smite, Railjack, and Riven Faction Stats) descriptions to use multiplier instead of percentage based stat formatting. Damage values have not changed! Just the way they are communicated. 
  • For example: Smite Corpus (at max rank) 
    • Was: “+30% Damage to Corpus.” 
    • Now: “x1.3 Damage to Corpus.” 
  • This change better communicates how Faction Damage is calculated, since calculation occurs when you hit the enemy, as opposed to when you shoot like other damage sources (since it needs to know what Faction is being hit). For that reason, multipliers apply to final damage as a whole and not just part of the formula! 
• Updated Zariman Extraction button in the Elevator to start a 60 second Extraction timer for Hosts in endless missions. 
  • Clients will still be automatically extracted from the mission when using this button. We have added this special functionality for Hosts to allow Clients the option to extract as well, should they wish to avoid a Host Migration. 
• Reduced Shields on Corpus Allies in the “Prison Break” Break Narmer mission to be more in line with Grineer Brothers total health values. 
• Non-Critical Little Duck transmissions in Disruption missions can now be turned on or off with the “Enable Hint Transmissions” toggle in the Audio Options.
   

Optimizations: 

• Optimized trail particles count on the Latron Incarnon Genesis’ projectile.  
• Made systemic micro-optimizations to memory footprint for all platforms.
• Optimized screenshot capturing to reduce the hitch time. 
• Fixed a hitch in performance when opening the Railjack Tactical Menu. 
• Fixed a rare issue where Clients could experience long hitches in Archwing Rush missions if remaining players stayed at spawn.
• Made systemic micro-optimizations to memory on all platforms. 

Known Issues: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1368148-known-issues-abyss-of-dagath/

 

Top Fixes: 

• Fixed Hema’s magazine size shrinking when it’s used with Equinox equipped with the Duality Augment Mod. 
• Fixed Mirage’s Eclipse not providing the Damage Reduction buff when positioned in the shadowed areas of Duviri and the Undercroft. 
• Fixed Undercroft Jackal being overly affected by Cold Status Effects which would drastically slow down the fight. 
• Fixed Gorgon Incarnon challenge for Evolution IV not resetting when reloading if you’re the Client.
• Fixed Nova’s Antimatter Drop damage being inconsistent between Host and Client. 
  • With the same Mod loadout, Clients were doing significantly less damage than the Host (who had the intended damage output). 
• Fixed Decrees going missing after reconnecting to an active Duviri or Circuit session. 
• Fixed Host migration causing Clients in the Circuit to not receive their Decree from collecting all the Decree Fragments and completing the stage.
• Fixed Orowyrm becoming immortal after destroying all its rings, causing a halt in progress. 
• Fixed an issue where shooting enemies in Zephyr’s Tornadoes would not register critical hits (notably with the Stahlta). 
• Fixed weapons with Incarnon Genesis not being offered as options in Teshin’s Cave. 
• Fixed older accounts seeing incorrect on-screen controller callouts  for the “Chord” binding in the Shawzin Duviri side-objective.

• Fixed the Data Mass in The Greenway Zariman Mobile Defense mission disappearing  when attempting to pick up a Zarium Accolade.
• Fixed freezing in place while attempting to pick up items.
• Fixed Orokin Vaults not giving players an “Unidentified Reward” pop-up and reward in their Mission Progress Screen once players interact with the corrupted artifact. 
  • While players earned a random Corrupted Mod and Orokin Cipher through unlocking these vaults, these rewards were never used the “Unidentified Reward” pop-up that was introduced later in Warframe’s development. We’re adding it now to reduce any player confusion!
• Fixed an issue that allowed multiple Thumper weak points to be destroyed at the same time, resulting in it becoming invulnerable. 
• Fixed triggering Galvanized Aptitude on the Telos Boltor Incarnon granting it far more direct hit damage (at times tenfold) than intended. 
• Fixed being able to gain Affinity from Ember’s Inferno when no enemies are within range. Affinity on Ability cast is tied to Energy cost, and since Inferno has a free-cast trait this slipped by!
• Fixes towards the Dex Drifter/Operator Suit not taking on black and dark saturated colors very well. 
  • Pure black ended up to be more of a shiny medium silver, and saturated colores ended up with a lot of white mixed in. Only very pale colors accurately reflected player color choices prior to this fix.

• Fixed Dread Incarnon’s Stalker’s Resentment perk (with Hate and Despair Equipped: Hits increase damage by +10, stacks up to 5x. Resets on missed shot)  resetting if ANY arrow in a volley is missed. This has been changed to be much more forgiving, and will now reset if ALL arrows miss. Each projectile still contributes to the stacks. 
• Fixed Specters ignoring ammo drops from Protea’s Dispensary. 
• Fixed camera snapping 180 degrees upon triggering Last Grasp and Transference. 
• Fixed Steel Path difficulty modifiers not applying to Void Angels. 
• Fixed Ash’s Shruikens pathing being widely inconsistent when pressed up against objects (walls, etc.) when cast, causing them to not fly directly towards enemies. 
• Fixed the Evolution IV challenge (Kill 40 enemies while airborne) for the Gammacor Incarnon (base and Synoid) tracking kills while not in the air as required.

• Fixed Archon Nira getting downed and stuck in walls during her grapple ability. A small invulnerability phase has been added when she performs this ability to prevent this issue from occurring. 
• Fixed enemy armor indicators not working properly with Steel Path modifiers. 
  • Maximum armor is now determined as the highest amount of modified armor the damage controller has had, rather than limited to explicit changes to the base armor rating since Steel Path doesn’t change the base armor.
• Fixed a Host Migration issue for the Ropalolyst fight that allowed players to see a charged pillar which in reality was not charged at all!
• Fixed a Host Migration issue for the Ropalolyst fight that could leave Clients locked in the arena after the fight. 
• Fixed a Host Migration issue that caused a Client to lose functionality when entering The Lone Story Undercroft. 
• Fixed a Host Migration issue where not enough enemies would spawn during a Duviri Undercroft Defense.
• Fixed Pathocyst’s heavy charged projectile dealing the same damage as quick attack.
• Fixed Rauta’s passive not adding Combo Counter to Melee weapons if the Melee has not already accumulated 1x Combo Counter through use.
• Fixed being able to apply crowd control effects to the Jackal on Venus, preventing unintended behavior.
• Fixed Braton Incarnon’s Prelude of Might perk always applying instead of on its intended trigger condition (with Critical Chance Below 50%).

Code Changes/Fixes From Previous Updates/Hotfixes: 
The following list includes the changes and fixes that were unable to launch alongside PC updates/hotfixes due to them affecting code (Warframe Lexicon for Updates). 

• Fixed a crash related to Specters being unable to pick up certain types of ammo.
• Fixed several offset issues with Syandanas equipped onto Saryn’s Voidshell Skin. 
• Fixed a rare crash when going from town to landscape and failing to connect.
• Fixed a crash that could occur if Host returned to a town hub before Client managed to get into the open landscape. 

• Additional notes: none.
• Source: Digital Extremes

Changes:

• Updated the Cetus Wisp description to better indicate how to obtain them. 
  • “Most common at night, these stone lifeforms are drawn to shorelines touched by the Eidolon. They linger around lakes on the Plains of Eidolon at all hours. Their origin remains mysterious.”
  • We have an additional QOL change coming to Cetus Wisps in the upcoming Abyss of Dagath Update – stay tuned! 

Fixes:

• Fixed being unable to chatlink the Gotva Prime.
• Fixed being able to use Transference in the second stage of the Duviri Paradox Quest, resulting in players being stuck as the Drifter.
• Fixed various pathing issues with Executioner Zura in Dog Days. 
• Fixed Medusalyst Towers not having their projectile weapon if Kahl has died before reaching them in the “Prison Break” Break Narmer mission.

• Additional notes: none.

Fixes: 

• Fixed being unable to trade Arcanes due to them appearing as Mods in the trading UI. 
• Fixed The Duviri Experience node not registering as complete after finishing The Duviri Paradox Quest, which was preventing the other Duviri nodes (Circuit and Lone Story) from being marked correctly. This led to the Steel Path not unlocking or completing for most players (since the intended flow of needing the normal nodes completed first was not being fulfilled). 

Since the other nodes were not registering as complete due to the above issue, in order to unlock Duviri on The Steel Path now, you may need to replay and complete The Circuit (complete at least one stage) and Lone Story (complete all stages, including defeating the Orowyrm) on their normal difficulty. A UI pop-up will occur to generally indicate if any of the normal nodes needs to be completed before The Steel Path can be unlocked for Duviri. An additional change that specifies exactly which node will be coming in the next update.

• More fixes towards offset issues with the Drifter Saita Prime Suit. 
• More fixes towards armor offset issues with the Drifter Harrier Suit (notably the Protovyre Shoulder Armor, TennoCon 2019 Shoulder Plates, and Sorex Shoulder Guards).

Kullervo Fight Changes: 
The difficulty of the Kullervo fight has been adjusted to be more manageable for the Drifter Melee combatants. This was done in two ways: by adjusting some of his mechanics, and tweaking the amount of damage he receives from certain sources. 

Changes to Kullervo’s mechanics:

• Decreased the frequency of ability casts and increased telegraph times slightly for several abilities so that they are easier to avoid. 
• Increased the duration of the window of opportunity after ability casts in Phase 3.
• Reduced the frequency of unparryable heavy attacks.
• Increased the usage of melee attacks, but reduced the attack speed slightly to encourage more melee engagement.
• Decreased melee attack damage slightly, and normalized some melee attack damage values. 
• Slightly decreased Kullervo’s health. 

Changes to Kullervo’s damage receival: 
In changing his mechanics, we have also made these alterations to how he receives damage, to encourage player melee engagement overall.

• Significantly increased damage taken from parry finishers. 
• Reduced the damage taken from Rifles and Shotguns (Transference Surge).

Changes:

• Updated the time-limited Kullervo’s Hold on-hover description to clarify that the fight is also accessible in The Lone Story and The Duviri Experience. 
  • “Complete a Lone Story with an opportunity to confront Kullervo. Kullervo can also appear during The Duviri Experience and The Lone Story any time Duviri is in a Fear, Anger, or Sorrow Spiral.”
• Added timer before teleporting far away players to Kullervo’s Hold for the fight. 
• Side objective Undercroft Portals are now deactivated while the Kullervo fight is active. 
  • This is to prevent potential issues from occurring. 
• Increased the speed of cursor movement in the Recover the Paragrimm side objective while using a controller. 
  • We are also looking at increasing the camera speed in a future update (since it is a code change that requires cert – Warframe Lexicon). For the time being, we were able to increase the cursor speed to help you target those Tomes a bit quicker. 

Fixes: 

• Fixed the incorrect range of Kullervo’s Bane being rewarded for completing The Steel Path Kullervo’s Hold fight. 
  • Prior to this fix, it was possible to receive 4 or 5 Kullervo’s Bane on The Steel Path, which is under the intended range of 6 to 8. This has now been restored! 
• Fixed being unable to matchmake for Kullervo’s Hold time-limited node if players in the squad had already loaded into Teshin’s Cave.
• Fixed Steel Path players matchmaking with normal players on Kullervo’s Hold time-limited node and vice versa.  
• Fixed being unable to uninstall Incarnon Genesis and getting the “Something went wrong during Incarnon Genesis removal. Please try again.” error when attempting to do so. 
  • Also fixed players getting charged 5 Pathos Clamps for attempting to remove the Incarnon Genesis, even with the error pop-up. We will be running a script shortly to refund Pathos Clamps to affected players. 
• Fixed Latron’s Incarnon Evolution II “ Swift Punishment” perk not granting its damage buff as intended with Sprint Speed 1.2 or higher. 
• Fixed the Strun and Ferlarx Incarnons (base and variants) not refilling their magazine when transforming from their Incarnon Form to base. 
• Fixed Acceltra causing self-damage when Primed Firestorm is equipped. 
• Fixed Vazarin’s Enduring Tides not working if it is Waybound.
• Fixed Frost’s Icy Avalanche Augment Mod granting the values on recast instead of picking the greater values of the two (original and new cast).

Changes:

• Added icon to Profile dropdown while in Teshin’s Cave to indicate which of your loadout selections are unowned.
  • Previously these items would show their Rank at 0, which wasn’t very helpful since it gave the impression you owned the item. So we’ve replaced it with this icon as a more appropriate identifier!

• Made a couple slight adjustments to the VFX upgrades to the Shrine Assemble elements from earlier this week.

NSW The Duviri Paradox: Hotfix #9

We are deploying a quick turnaround Hotfix to fix a soft-lock that was occurring after a successful round of the Index! 

Fixes:

• Fixed a script error that was causing the Index vote screen to soft lock players from their game at the end of a round.
  • We will be working on a Script that will refund the Credits players would have lost being forced to quit the game at the end of their mission in the Index. We will update this thread once we have more details. 

• Additional notes: none.
• Source: Digital Extremes

Changes: 

• Banshee’s Silence no longer stuns CC immune enemies (VIPs/bosses, Overguard, etc.). While they will no longer be stunned, enemies under its effects will still be stopped from casting their abilities. 
  • The main motivation was to fix Thrax Legatus enemies falling through the map and going invisible due to Silence – causing a progression halt in Spiral/Circuit Stages. It also brings Silence in line with other stun, stagger, knockdown, etc. abilities and how they are intended to be ignored when CC immunities are present. 
• Made the following changes to the Shrine Assemble objective: 
  • Changed the VFX for the Shrine Assemble pieces to red so that they are easier to find.
  • Updated the orb that travels from player to Shrine after picking up pieces to make it much easier to see. It is now a big ball of red energy – much harder to miss now!
  • Made some optimizations to the Shrine Assemble objective. 
• Updated Strun’s Incarnon Genesis Evolution II “Blazing Barrel” description to say “On Firing” instead of “On fire”. 
  • Now reads: “Increases Damage by +2. On Firing: +5% Multishot. Stacks up to 5x.”
• Adjusted the radius and gain of Luscinia’s singing cue in the Undercroft.
• Removed unnecessary spaces between durations and measurements (150 s to 150s) in the Drifter Intrinsic descriptions to improve readability. 
• Made slight updates to the Orowyrm’s attack VFX.

Fixes:

• Fixed the Hidden Chests near the Throneguard Barracks and Titan’s Rest areas of Duviri spawning underground – causing a halt in Spiral progression as they were inaccessible.
• Fixed the Hidden Chest near The Agora not opening during Spiral stages – causing halt in progress.  
• Fixed casting Shadows of the Dead during the Orowyrm fight causing Host migration. 
• Fixed Host migrating while in Teshin’s Cave leaving Clients without proper objectives in Duviri.
• Made fixes towards being unable to use Drifter’s Restorative ability when prompted to in The Duviri Paradox Quest – causing a halt in Quest progress. 
• Fixed the Orowyrm getting stuck doing donuts in the sky instead of following its intended path if a player was controlling it at the time of Host migration. 
• More fixes towards Host migrating during Undercroft Excavation missions leading to enemies no longer spawning – causing mission progression to come to a halt (even after collection 300 Cryotic). 
• Fixed getting indefinitely stuck in the Undercroft after Host Migration without a countdown timer. 
• Fixed Clients being unable to complete the Shrine Assemble objective after Host migration using the pieces that were dropped beforehand. 
• Fixed Clients that load back into Duviri from Host migrating after completing the Orowyrm fight being unable to extract via portal. 
• Fixed becoming invincible after interacting with the mirror in Teshin’s Cave with the Rank 10 Endurance Intrinsic “Cheat Death”. 
  • Also fixed interacting with the mirror before entering Duviri causing the Endurance Ranks 2, 4, 7 and the Combat Rank 10 Intrinsics not working. 
• Fixed Hosts in a full squad losing rewards and resources after crashing or closing the game. 
• Fixed Clients Transfering to Drifter from Excalibur Umbra while waiting to load into the Undercroft causing the entire squad to get permanently stuck in the loading area – causing halt in progression of Spiral and Circuit stages. 
• Fixed crash that could occur if the chest after the Orowyrm fight is opened while a player is spectating after being downed.
• Fixed crash with Host migration while playing The Duviri Experience. 
• Fixed crash related to the dynamic skies in Duviri when the Spiral changes.
• Fixed case where you could enter Duviri as Warframe instead of Drifter from Teshin’s Cave.
• Fixed the Syam’s Heavy Attack shockwaves not being affected by Melee Damage Mods. 
• Fixed Ceramic Dagger’s Incarnon Evolution II upgrades “Gun and Blade” and “Butcher’s Opportunity” not applying their damage bonuses. 
• Fixed Boltor Prime’s Status Chance Incarnon Evolution IV upgrades being lower than intended (was 10% and is now 18%). 
• Fixed the Shawzin Emote not being given after acquiring the Courtly Shawzin from completing all the Virtuoso songs in Duviri – causing players who have never owned a Shawzin to be unable to play their new shiny instrument! As reported here. 
  • If you were affected by this issue, the next time you log in the Shawzin Emote will be in your inventory. Simply equip it onto your Emote Wheel via the Arsenal to use in-mission. 
• Fixed cases where an entire portion of the Duviri map could completely disappear after completing the Orowyrm fight. 
• Fixed being able to lock onto and teleport to Defense Target with Stalker’s Teleport ability (Rank 10 Opportunity Drifter Intrinsic) – causing Stalker to clip through the target.
• Fixed opening the pause menu while encountering the Dax Equitem causing it to linger on screen after exiting.

• Fixed a large gap in the floor leading to out of bounds exploration in the Corpus Ice Planet tileset. 
• Fixed camera placement on Drifter being too low after using Transference in the Dormizone for players on the Paradox Path. 
• Fixed the Protosomid Shoulder Guard being invisible in the Arsenal and flashing in the Orbiter.
• Fixed Clients Drifter appearance not being accurately updated for other players.

Resource Cost Changes for Acrithis Wares and Incarnon Genesis Installation: 

We have reduced the Duviri resource cost requirements for several of Acrithis’ Wares and for certain resources used in the Incarnon Genesis installation process at Cavalero.  

We’re a bit over a week since the launch of The Duviri Paradox and have reviewed how players participate in resource collecting in Duviri. Ultimately, it was determined that the resource costs in Acrithis’ store and for Incarnon Genesis installation were simply too high for what players were earning. 

That said, the new resource costs now more accurately reflect what the average player collects as they complete Spirals. Incarnon Genesis costs specifically have been reduced for the following resources, with other costs remaining untouched: Ariette Scales, Nacreous Pebble, Saggen Pearl, Aggristone, and Lamentus.

We are working on a script to refund players who have purchased from Acrithis, and a separate script to refund applicable Incarnon Genesis costs. Seeing as there have been considerable reductions to costs you may have already purchased, we want to appropriately refund those contributions in light of these changes. 

More details to come on exactly what the scripts will entail and when you can expect them to be run. 

11/05/2023 Edit: 

The resource refund scripts for Acrithis’ store have been completed! If you purchased an affected item prior to the price changes, we have offered a blanket refund of various Duviri resources that were most affected by the cost reduction. Due to the nature of Acrithis’ wares, resources and their costs vary per rotation, so instead of a very complicated direct refund, players will receive a variety of resources that scale by the number of total purchases. 

For those waiting on the Incarnon Refund, that is still to come!

16/05/2023 Edit: 

The resource refund script for Incarnon installation cost reductions has completed! If you installed an Incarnon Genesis on the following weapons you will be receiving the listed refund: 

• Bronco – 150 Nacreous Pebbles 
• Furax – 200 Ariette Scales 
• Furis – 70 Lamentus 
• Lato – 150 Nacreous Pebbles 
• Lex – 50 Saggen Pearls 
• Magistar – 100 Aggristone 

Changes: 

• Resource Boosters now apply to Duviri fish resources obtained from Maw Feeding. 
  • We are still working on having Resource Boosters also apply to Rune Marrow from Runic Compacts in the Undercroft. 
• Changed the following Skana variant’s “Elemental Excess” Incarnon Genesis evolution:
  • Prisma Skana: Increase Status Chance by 20% (was 30%)
  • Skana Prime: Increase Status Chance by 10% (was 24%)
    • Varying values for variants are intended for all Incarnon Genesis weapons, so the Skana was adjusted to match that format. 
• Slightly increased the range that Tamms will react to players and increased their movement speed while being herded.

Fixes: 

• Fixed cases where resources and pick up rewards were not saved after using the “Leave Duviri” option in the pause menu (as mentioned in yesterday’s hotfix). 
• Fixed Melee Mods not applying properly to Edun’s Heavy Attack throw. 
• Fixed players getting permanently stuck underwater after teleporting to other players using the Rank 10 “Herd Travel” Riding Intrinsic while they are Maw Feeding. 
• Fixed being able to interact with the Drifter and Kaithe customization in Teshin’s Cave while riding Kaithe – causing players to be unable to interact with customization options as they are still mounted. 
  • In order to fix the above issue and prevent any further, Kaithe is no longer able to be summoned in Teshin’s Cave. 
• Fixed Host migrating during Undercroft Excavation missions leading to enemies no longer spawning – causing mission progression to come to a halt (even after collection 300 Cryotic). 
• Fixed Host Migration during Undercroft Defense missions halting enemy spawns. 
• Fixed a script error in the Undercroft that would cause it to not recover properly after Host Migration. 
• Fixed the “Ranger’s Reload” Decree (Rolling reloads the equipped weapon) not activating the “Duelist’s Advantage” Decree (Your first shot after reloading deals +X damage) if both are owned. 
• Fixed Duelist’s Advantage not activating on a weapon when it’s currently activated on another (e.g. reload Primary, activate Decree on Primary, reload Secondary, Decree does not activate on Secondary). 
• Fixed the “Fearsome Bonanza” Decree (Gain +X Damage for every enemy affected by Status within 20m) applying its damage increase to other damage increasing Decrees – causing an exponential damage increase cycle with certain Decree combinations. 
  • Example:  Bombastine’s Malice (On Headshot, 30% chance for enemies near the target will be inflicted with X% Toxin) spreads Toxin using the damage from the shot you hit to trigger it. If Fearsome Bonanza was triggered at the same time, it would double down on the buffs.
• Fixed crash that could occur when aborting The Circuit. 
• Fixed case where the Orowyrm could get stuck on the massive Dominus Thrax hands in the sky upon summoning. 
• Fixes towards the Vitoplast Drone from Void Flood stages lingering after exiting the Undercroft. 
• Fixed crash that could occur at the end of a Void Flood round.

• Fixed flying into Undercroft portal with Kaithe not teleporting you into it and simply dismounting you back into the Landscape. 
• Fixed weirdness with enemy waves in the Undercroft and Shrine Assembly objectives. 
• Fixed the Watchful Paragrimm decoration having a Noggle base.

• Fixed Runic Compact not appearing on the mini-map with Loot Detector Mods equipped.
• Fixed playable-Stalker (from Rank 10 “Stranger in Black” Opportunity Intrinsic) not having his own custom squad minimap icon. 
• Fixed the Telos Syandana when equipped on Drifter sitting too far down their back.  
• Fixed the glow VFX when entering an Undercroft portal not applying to most weapons and attachments. 
• Fixed the glow VFX lingering after entering a portal (Teshin’s Cave or Undercroft) when using Transference beforehand. 
• Fixed the Tysis’ “tail” piece floating above the weapon weirdly when it appears in Teshin’s Cave. 
• Fixed players hearing each other’s Guiding Hand audio FV when cast. 
• Fixed being unable to craft the Greedy Milk Scrawl even if you have all of the crafting requirements. 
• Fixed the Archgun Deployer summoning sound FX playing twice. 
• Fixed script error with Protea’s Temporal Anchor. 
• Fixed script error related to Decree rolling.

• Additional notes: none.

Changes: 

• Magus Lockdown now respects all enemies with ability immunity protections.
  • We don’t take this change lightly, as we’re aware of its popularity, however, the persistent scenarios in which Magus Lockdown breaks the game (see fix listed just below) show us that we need to make some changes. In full transparency, we’ve let Magus Lockdown exist as an exception to the rule when it comes to CCing VIPS/bosses that are CC immune in most scenarios, and we’ve decided to make this change for the greater good. To offer a bit of insight to the issues, enemies with Overguard (Eximus, Kuva Trokarians, etc.) worked as intended and were unaffected by Magus Lockdown, while Eidolons, Kuva Clouds, and Thrax enemies (specifically during their incorporeal state) were not. Other abilities (such as Vauban’s Bastille for example) do not affect them, so we’ve adjusted Magus Lockdown to be on par with the rest. This change does not affect enemies that are affected by abilities (Demolishers, Acolytes, etc.), and they will maintain their existing interactions with the Arcane. 
  • With the above change, we have been able to fix Thrax Legatus enemies in the Undercroft falling through the map and being inaccessible (causing major progression breaks in Story and Circuit stags). This was caused by Magus Lockdown being used while the Thrax Legatus were using their incorporeal clone ability. 
• Added a new dissolve VFX when approaching Undercroft portals. 
• New players who chose the Duviri Path can now decorate their Dormizone! 
• Simplified the hacking minigame during The Duviri Paradox Quest  (Post-Quest hacking minigames are unaffected by this): 
  • Removed the timer – players now have unlimited time to complete it. 
  • Removed held notes – single notes will now be the only note interactions.
• Made the following changes to the Sun Silph (and its Silphsela resource) in Duviri: 
  • There are now 4 Silphsela “seeds” that float in the air around where the Sun Silph is located. 
  • Approaching a Sun Silph within 8 meters will cause it to let out a burst of 3 Silphsela “seeds” into the air that slowly descend overtime before blowing away with the wind. 
  • Also fixed being able to get unlimited Silphesela by standing near Sun Silphs. 
• Made the following changes to the Dax Equitem to make the fight more engaging and challenging:
  • Increased the rate at which they use abilities and improved their targeting logic when fighting against a squad.
  • Slightly increased base health. 
  • Updated animations after performing abilities/leaps. 
• Made various updates and fixes to the sound FX for Incarnon Genesis weapons.
• Updated the VFX for Dread’s Incarnon Mode. 

Optimizations:

• Made micro-optimizations to interactions with Duviri citizens. 

Fixes: 

• • Fixed only 2 of the 3 required fragments dropping for the “Assemble the Shrine” side objective if the Client initiates it while the Host is very far away – causing a halt in Spiral stage progress. 
  • Edit: We were close to a fix but there are still instances where Shrine pieces are not being dropped if Client and Host are far from one another when the Shrine is started. While we work on a fix, we suggest sticking close to one another when starting the Shrine to potentially circumvent this stage halt.

• Fixed Defense Target not spawning if Host Migration occurs – causing waves to halt indefinitely.
• Fixed dying in the Drifter Combat tutorial in The Duviri Paradox Quest causing Drifter to get locked in A pose – causing a halt in Quest progress. 
• Fixed cases where a player with many Decrees attacking the Dax Equitem could break the fight and potentially crash. 
• Fixed resources collected (and rewards from Enigmas) after the Orowyrm fight not being saved upon extracting. 
  • We are also investigating the same issue when using the “Leave Duviri” menu option.
• Fixed permanent screenshake and cleansing prompt when interacting with a Conservation animal while Transference Surge is active. 
• Fixed Arbitrations being inaccessible due to the new Duviri navigation region. 
  • Arbitrations, like Steel Path, are unlocked when completing all of the nodes in the Origin System and do not require Duviri interaction. 
• Fixed Clients getting permanently stuck controlling the Orowyrm after Host Migration – causing halt in progressing through the rest of the fight.
• Fixed customizing your Drifter via the mirror in the Dormizone erroneously offering Operator-only customization as an option to equip onto/purchase for Drifter.
  • If you purchased an Operator customization with the intention of using it for Drifter and would like to revert the purchase you can send a ticket to support.warframe.com. Use “Revert Operator Cosmetics Mirror Purchase” in the title to help our support team find your request. 
• Fixed the Undercroft portal VFX missing when approaching while riding Kaithe – causing players to think that it is not functioning. 
• Fixed crash that could occur when Host Migrating during Hidden Chest objective in Duviri. 
• Fixed getting randomly teleported away to a totally new location in Duviri while flying on Kaithe around the edges of the islands.

• Fixed players and Duviri citizens at times floating a bit off of the ground. 
• Fixed Melee Incarnon Weapons using the incorrect HUD indicator to state that Incarnon Mode was ready. 
• Fixed arrow facing the wrong way when using any skin on the Paris’ Incarnon Mode. 
• Fixed arrow sticking out of the Zhuge when it is available in Teshin’s Cave. 
• Fixed Host not seeing the correctly sized radius for Hallowed Reckoning based on their Ability Strength Mods.

The Undercroft (Landscape and The Circuit) Defense Changes: 
The following changes have been made to address player feedback on the difficulty of Defense stages in the Undercroft. They are geared to alleviate the conditions that were causing the Defense Target to get destroyed extremely fast (notably in The Steel Path). 

• The Defense Target’s level now scales between stages.
  • The Defense Target’s scaling occurs alongside enemy level scaling between stages up to level 50. After level 50, the scaling rate decreases overtime to maintain a level of challenge in The Circuit.  
• Increased the Defense Target’s starting level in The Steel Path from 76 to 101. 
• Increased the rate at which the Defense Target’s Shields recharge.
• Reduced the damage that the Defense Target can take from Thrax units.
• Defense rounds will now only start when someone enters the Defense Target’s radius. 
  • This addresses enemies rushing to the Defense Target before players have even found it and positioned themselves to defend it. 

Changes: 

• Added the Sun & Moon, Edun, Sampotes, Azothane, and Syam Blueprints (for Warframe use) to Cephalon Simaris’ Offerings for those who accidentally sell theirs. 
  • The Sun & Moon Blueprint is purchasable from his offerings after completing The Duviri Paradox Quest (Quest reward). The Edun, Sampotes, Azothane, and Syam Blueprints are purchasable after obtaining the Drifter version (via Platinum or Pathos Clamps). 
• Updated the Zylok, Despair, Hate, and Sibear’s Incarnon Mode VFX. 
• Made adjustments to Luscinia’s volume, gain, and radius in the Undercroft.  

Fixes: 

• Fixed naming/renaming your Kaithe (after reaching Riding Rank 8 in Drifter Intrinsics) costing 15 Platinum. 
  • We will be running a script shortly to refund players the Platinum that was used to name/rename your Kaithe. We will update here once it has completed. 
• Fixed Clients being unable to see or interact with Enigmas if the Host has not been in proximity of it – potentially causing progress stops in the Spiral stages. 
  • Also fixed Clients being unable to see VFX on certain Enigma elements. 
• Fixed potential crash when dying while pushing Enigma elements or using the co-op doors in the Origin System missions. 
  • Also fixes Hosts seeing Clients do wonky animations when they attempt to push Enigma elements.

• Fixed cases where the Orowyrm could become invulnerable after Host Migration.

• Fixed being unable to complete “Guide Reflection into Light” encounters in Duviri due to the objective beams being blocked by the environment – potentially causing a halt in progress for Story stages.

• Fixed the Enigma below Titan’s Rest in Duviri missing the pressure plate required to start it.

THE DUVIRI PARADOX HAS ARRIVED! 

Duviri is here! The precise where and when has been hard to pinpoint, but Drifter’s time in Duviri is finally becoming clear. Start The Duviri Paradox Quest to experience a never-ending spiral of life, death, and rebirth at the hands of Dominus Thrax. All Tenno, including those brand new to Warframe, will be able to dive into The Duviri Paradox straight away. After quest completion, there are three Game Modes for experiencing Duviri:

• THE CIRCUIT: Focused on Warframe combat within the Undercroft, The Circuit revolves around endless gameplay objectives in the Undercroft with rotating weekly rewards. Pick your difficulty and reward track, complete rounds to fill out the track, and claim rewards such as new Arcanes, Incarnon Genesis, or even blueprints to build an entire Warframe! 
• THE DUVIRI EXPERIENCE: Duviri as it is meant to be played – the Open Landscape experience with a Spiral story, side activities, and open exploration. This game mode  allows a Tenno to experience everything that Duviri has to offer.
• THE LONE STORY: A streamlined version of Duviri with only the Spiral story for Tenno looking to face the Orowyrm’s fury as fast as possible. 

When exploring Duviri’s mind-bending reality, you can expect to encounter:

• SPIRALS: Duviri is at the whim of Dominus Thrax’ Spiral, with each Spiral featuring its own story, unique threats, and changing environment for the citizens of Duviri.
• DECREES: Specialized Drifter and Warframe upgrades unique to each Duviri visit. Completing activities in Duviri grants a choice between randomized upgrades, improving your chances against the challenges found in Duviri and The Undercroft. 
• DRIFTER MELEE: Drifter has taken up melee weapons to fight back. Block incoming attacks to parry for a quick strike, or take Dax down hard with a Power Strike. 
• THE UNDERCROFT: The Undercroft hosts familiar warriors of various origins, rewriting Duviri’s rules to allow Warframe combat. 
• DRIFTER INTRINSICS: Enhance the Drifter within Duviri with permanent upgrades aimed to improve Combat, Riding, Opportunity, and Endurance.
• KAITHE: A customizable mount able to carry you above, below, and through the many islands of Duviri.
• SIDE ACTIVITIES: Duviri has significantly more to experience, including new enemies, Orowyrm boss fights, plus a wealth of side activities including Maw Feeding, Shawzin playing, Komi, with many others to find!  

The Duviri Paradox update comes with far more to discover beyond the bounds of Dominus Thrax’ imagined reality. There are new Incarnon Geneses, Arcanes, and Cosmetics which can all be used across Warframe:

NEW PLAYERS, CHOOSE YOUR PATH 

If you are new to Warframe, welcome! Your journey starts now on a path of your choosing. Upon opening the game for the first time you will be presented with two options to get started: The Warframe Path or the Paradox Path! 

 

WARFRAME PATH
This path may feel natural to you, a warrior of curious origins and frightening power. This way lies a Warframe that you will command at once… with the marauding Grineer Empire closing in around you. 

Begin as the Warframe, a weapon possessing supernatural abilities and strength. Explore the Origin System and the many mysteries that lie within it. Your journey begins with your Awakening, where you will choose a starter Warframe and Weapons to take on the many challenges ahead. 

 

PARADOX PATH
A road less traveled. A looping paradox that spirals ‘round the folds of time and reality to begin your story from an end. Here you are a prisoner of a twisted king, powerless, or so it seems. 

Begin as the Drifter, a mysterious vagabond from a different timeline. Your journey begins with The Duviri Paradox Quest, where you will explore a place that exists outside of the bounds of the reality we know. From here you will still learn how to master the art of the Warframe, but for a different purpose.    

This may seem like a big decision now, but do not fear the commitment. For in time, these paths will eventually converge. Either path will uncover new truths, skills, and more that are beneficial to your overall progress regardless of the choice you make now. In other words, all of Warframe’s content will be accessible to you one way or another in due time! 

Before you are presented this decision, you will first be able to customize your game settings via a curated menu immediately upon login. Further customization options will become available as you progress in your chosen Path!  

 

THE DUVIRI PARADOX QUEST

Ever get that feeling you’re stuck? Spinning inside your little wheel, day in and day out. Only to find… you’re right back where you started.

The Drifter is trapped in Duviri, suspended in a never-ending cycle of life, death and rebirth for the entertainment of the Mad King, Dominus Thrax. When all hope feels lost, an unexpected arrival and the reappearance of friends both old and new may finally spell the answer to escape the Paradox. 

The Duviri Paradox Quest is a solo experience and is available immediately upon login for all existing players via the Codex or the new Duviri region in your Navigation. 

All players have access to this Quest, provided they are not currently committed to a restricted segment of another Quest (ex: The War Within, The New War, etc.).

Completing the Quest rewards you the following:  

• Your very own Histornam Kaithe mount to use in Duviri 
• The Sun & Moon Melee Weapon for Drifter 
• The Sun & Moon Melee Weapon Blueprint for Warframes 
• The Mountain’s Edge Dual Nikanas Stance Mod for Warframes
• Access to enter The Duviri Experience, The Lone Story, and The Circuit (read the following section to learn how to enter Duviri)

ENTER DUVIRI 

Upon completing The Duviri Paradox Quest, the following Duviri entry points become available to you: 

Via the Navigation Console: 
Select the Duviri Region at the top right of the screen. 

Via the Dormizone: 
Any player who has completed the Duviri Paradox Quest can access the Dormizone through the Duviri Region in your Navigation. Those who have completed the Angels of the Zariman Quest can also access the Dormizone from its usual spot in the Zariman.

 

Via these entry points, Duviri can be experienced in 3 different ways; The Duviri Experience, The Lone Story, and The Circuit. Each with their own unique structure and gameplay! 

For players who have ventured into the Origin System, you will see some familiar systems cross over into the world of Duviri:

• Your actions in Duviri contribute to Nightwave Acts. 
  • If you are a player who has not completed the Vor’s Prize Quest (i.e. you have only taken the Paradox Path), you will also be able to progress in Nightwave Acts. However, you will not be able to access the Nightwave Menu until you have completed Vor’s Prize. 
• You can earn Affinity on owned Warframes and Weapons used in the Undercroft.
  • Standing for Pledged Syndicates can also be earned from this Affinity.
• Relevant Boosters apply to your gameplay.
  • NOTE: Affinity Boosters do not impact the Drifter Intrinsics earned, as these rewards are not Affinity based.
• Focus can be earned from equipped Lenses and from Thrax foes.

 

THE DUVIRI EXPERIENCE
Duviri as it was intended to be played. STORY (Spiral) and SIDE OBJECTIVES together. You will be given a series of tasks through a guided story featuring the many colorful characters residing in the Paradox.

Share your feedback and bug reports on The Duviri Experience here: 
https://forums.warframe.com/forum/1830-the-duviri-experience/

THE LONE STORY
Just the SPIRAL’s story. Duviri devoid of all side objectives. Focus all of your attention on the story-telling as it happens in real time! 

The Lone Story offers the same challenges and rewards as The Duviri Experience for completing the story stages.

Share your feedback and bug reports on The Lone Story here:
https://forums.warframe.com/forum/1830-the-duviri-experience/

Each visit to Duviri via The Lone Story, The Duviri Experience, and The Circuit begins from TESHIN’S CAVE.
 

 

TESHIN’S CAVE 

Teshin’s Cave is where you make preparations for the challenges before you. Unlike other open landscapes, it is not a hub. It is just as much a part of Duviri as anything else, and acts as the true beginning to your journey within Duviri. 

Here you will be able to select a LOADOUT, invest in DRIFTER INTRINSICS, select/purchase a DRIFTER MELEE WEAPON, and customize your Drifter and KAITHE.  

SELECT LOADOUT

Upon entering Teshin’s Cave, you will be presented with randomized Warframe and Weapon options. These options are pulled directly from your Arsenal, and at least 1 of the options from each category (Warframe, Primary Weapon, Secondary Weapon, and Melee Weapon) will be something you do not own*. 

*Unowned Warframes and Weapons will always be the base version. This means only Excalibur, not Excalibur Prime; only the Hek, not the Vaykor Hek or Kuva Hek.

Unless of course you do in fact own everything – you go getter! In a similar fashion, if you have less than 10 unowned Warframes, those Warfames have a lower chance of appearing in the Cave to prevent repeated options across each Spiral. A similar methodology is applied to Weapon selections as well. 

The most powerful version (based on stats and bonus effects) of the Warframe and Weapon variants you own will be offered in Teshin’s Cave (e.g. Hildryn Prime vs. Hildryn if you own both). 

At the base rank of the Drifter Opportunity Intrinsics, 3 Warframe options, one of each Weapon type (Primary, Secondary, and Melee), and an additional weapon of any type are offered. Unlocking certain Opportunity Drifter Intrinsic Ranks will increase the number of Warframe and Weapon options available to choose from. Read the “Drifter Intrinsics” section below to learn more! 

Each new Spiral means a new set of randomized options become available, granting you new opportunities to take on whatever the mad king throws at you. Successfully extracting from a mission in Duviri (either by defeating the Orowyrm and using the Portal, or by selecting “Extract” in the Circuit Stage Completion Screen) will also randomize the equipment available in Teshin’s Cave on your next visit.   

Teshin’s Cave provides safe ground for you to test and practice all of the equipment available – you are not bound to any of your selections until you leave the Cave via the portal to the Duviri landscape, so play around as much as you like before committing! Swapping your Warframe or using the “Configure” context action will refill its Energy.
 

1. Select Your Warframe:
A most important choice is to be made – select from the Warframe options available to level the battlefield with their unique strengths and abilities. 

Teshin has a list of Warframes specially curated for Tenno who are Mastery Rank 3 and below. The following are intended to teach the foundations of the way of the Warframe:

• Frost
• Mirage
• Nezha 
• Oberon
• Protea
• Rhino
• Saryn
• Styanax 
• Wukong 
• Volt
• Excalibur 
• Mag  

Increasing your Mastery beyond Rank 3 by exploring the Origin System, and ranking up your equipment will unlock the full list of potential Warframes that can appear in Teshin’s Cave. 

You can learn about each of the Warframes available by approaching them and using the “Configure” context action. Here you see their stats and learn about their passive and abilities by hovering over each ability icon. 

2. Select Your Weapons: 
After selecting your Warframe, the next step becomes available – choosing which Primary, Secondary, and Melee Weapons to bring into the fray. 

You can view the stats of the Weapons available by approaching them and using the “Configure” context action. 

Modular weapons (Zaws & Kitguns) are not eligible to appear in Teshin’s Cave, as well as Heavy Weapons (since they require Gear Wheel access to spawn in mission). 

Warframe & Weapon Appearance: 
Warframes and Weapons you own use the Appearance Config A from your Arsenal, while those you don’t own are set to their default. To change the appearance of the Weapons you own, simply return to the Dormizone or Orbiter and customize Appearance Config A via the Arsenal. 

(TIP: You can drag Config names to change their order in both your Appearance and Upgrade menus)

In-Game Market – Teshin’s Cave Offerings:
If you wish to procure the items shown in Teshin’s Cave, there is a Duviri-specific “Teshin’s Cave Offerings” in-game Market tab that contains the Warframes and Weapons that appeared in your last visit to the Cave. 

 

From here you can gain instant access to these items by purchasing them with Platinum or learn about how you can earn them by exploring the Origin System!

3. Select Your Mod Configurations 
A crucial element to both Warframe and Weapons alike – power upgrades! Mods are quintessential to increasing your equipment’s effectiveness against enemies.  

Mod Configurations can be selected for your Warframe and Weapons by using the “Configure” context action when approaching them in Teshin’s Cave. 

 

Here you are able to choose from all of your existing Configs* for equipment that you own. DEFAULT MOD CONFIGS are also available and are the default option for unowned equipment. Configs with 40+ used Mod Capacity will appear first, instead of the Default Mod Config.

*Configs must have at least 1 Mod equipped to appear as an option. 

Existing Mod Configs available in Teshin’s Cave mirror those from your Arsenal, but also apply the following upgrades, such as:

• Arcanes (tied to the specific Config it was equipped) 
  • Arcane Revives: In addition to the revives granted to Tenno who have unlocked Rank 3 (Determination) and 8 (Tenacity) of the Endurance Intrinsics, revives from Warframe Arcanes also apply to the total count usable in Duviri! 
• Helminth Infused Abilities (tied to the specific Config it was assigned to) 
• Helminth Invigorations (applied to all Configs)
• Archon Shards (applied to all Configs)

Default Mod Configs:
Default Mod Configs are Mod presets for each of the Warframes and Weapons that appear in Teshin’s Cave. Each and every Warframe and Weapon have their very own curated combination of Mods based on their unique traits, strengths, and weaknesses. These are meant to be mid-game builds for newer players to use, but well-equipped Tenno can use their own builds instead if they choose to.

 

Warframes have 6 guaranteed Ability and Survivability Mods (Flow, Continuity, Streamline, Stretch, Intensify, and Vitality) and 2 Mods based on a Warframe’s specific Health, Shield, and Armor stats (e.g. Redirection, Steel Fiber, etc.).

Weapons have 3 guaranteed base Mods (like Serration, Split Chamber, and Vigilante Armaments for Primaries, or Pressure Point, Fury and Reach for Melees), 3 Mods determined by the weapon’s stat strengths (Critical Chance/Damage, Status Effect, etc.) and 2 Mods based on Damage type (Physical and Elemental Damage). 

Damage mods try to match the weapon’s existing strength, so for instance the flamethrower Ignis will only get Heat Damage Mods. There are specific situations where we override certain Mods, like not equipping Flow on Hildryn or Lavos, or excluding fire rate Mods on weapons like the Tonkor or Exergis.

Unowned Warframes and weapons use Default Mods exclusively (which can be viewed by using the “Configure” button). The “Configure” button will also show you details about the Warframe, such as their stats and abilities, so that you can get familiar with them before heading out into Duviri! 

You can swap between Mod Configs at any point in the Cave by simply re-approaching the pedestal where it spawned and use the “Configure” context action. 

To customize the Mods in your Mod Configs of owned equipment, return to the safety of your Orbiter or Dormizone to access the Arsenal. Any and all changes applied to the Mod Configs in your Arsenal will appear in Teshin’s Cave for the Warframe and Weapons you own. 

If you thrive in the unknown, you can also jump into Duviri without making any equipment  selections. Doing so will simply randomize a chosen loadout for you (including their Mod Configs).

INTRINSIC SPECIFICS

Steadfast Dismount – Overguard: 
Overguard is a defense mechanism that grants additional Health protection and provides Knockdown Immunity as long as there is an amount remaining. Read on to learn more about combat in Duviri! 

Deft Defender – Precise Parry:
Perform a Precise Parry by timing a Melee block at the exact moment an enemy is attacking. Doing so allows you to perform a finisher on them by Melee attacking while they are vulnerable.

Rank 9 Intrinsics: 
All Rank 9 Intrinsics apply outside of Duviri to both your Drifter and to Operator, which will allow you to take your earned abilities and apply them to your combat and experiences outside of the Paradox’s grasp. 

Equestrian Bond – Kaithe Summon: 
Tenno who have unlocked this Intrinsic will be able to summon their Kaithe for Warframe and Drifter to ride in Open Landscapes using the KAITHE SUMMON item in their Gear Wheel (similar to Archwing Launcher). Once equipped, it will automatically appear in the left corner of your Gear Wheel (similar to the Omni Tool in Railjack missions). Kaithe abilities are available as well! 

• Note: Operators are currently not set-up to ride the Kaithe either in Duviri or in Open world missions, we may revisit the tech necessary for this functionality to occur but it won’t be available on launch. 

Mastery Points
Drifter Intrinsics also grants Mastery Points towards your next Mastery Rank test! Each Intrinsic Rank unlocked rewards 1,500 Mastery Points for a total of 60k after completing all categories. 
 

 

SELECT DRIFTER MELEE WEAPON

The Drifter is keen on close combat – give them the tools they need to devastate the enemies patrolling Duviri. 

In addition to the Sun & Moon Dual Nikanas earned from completing The Duviri Paradox Quest, there are other Melee weapons available to earn or purchase. Find them located in the far right corner of Teshin’s Cave. 

Each of the following Melee weapons can be used for both Warframe (Duviri and Origin System) and Drifter (Duviri only) combat and have unique attributes for each!

SUN & MOON
Teshin’s twin blades.

• Warframe: Sun & Moon is the first of the Dual Nikana category! Paired with the new Mountain’s Edge Stance Mod, create sharp movements with wide reach.
• Drifter: Power Strike sends forth two arcs of explosive energy.

SYAM 
Syam is at home in the hands of a focused warrior.

• Warframe: Its Heavy Attacks send forth shockwaves.
• Drifter: Power Strike unleashes a flurry of deadly slashes.

AZOTHANE
Azothane calls the visionary warrior to turn the tides of battle.

• Warframe: Block and melee attack at the same time to plunge Azothane into the ground, damaging nearby enemies with a shockwave and adding to the combo counter.
• Drifter: Power Strike plunges Azothane into the ground to summon five celestial blades that temporarily fight alongside Drifter and then explode.

EDUN
Edun befits a dextrous warrior.

• Warframe: Heavy Attack to throw Edun. Edun explodes after it is embedded in an enemy.
• Drifter: Power Strike stuns and blinds enemies by surrounding them with a cloud of dust.

SAMPOTES
A warrior who prefers brute force will make the most of Sampotes.

• Warframe: Its Slams and Heavy Slams have an extended area of effect.
• Drifter: Power Strike slams Sampotes into the ground to damage enemies with a shockwave.

There are two ways to obtain these Melee weapons: 

1. Instant Access with Platinum: 
Immediately unlocks for use by both Drifter and Warframe alike. The purchased Melee weapon can be equipped for Drifter via Teshin’s Cave before entering Duviri and via the Arsenal for Warframes. Each Melee weapon can be purchased individually or in the following bundle in the in-game Market!

HEAVY STRIKE MELEE BUNDLE
Strike your enemies down with weapons that are just as elegant as they are powerful. The Heavy Strike Melee Bundle includes the Azothane, Syam, Edun, and Sampotes melee weapons for your Drifter (Duviri) and Warframes (Duviri and Origin System). 

2. Earn Blueprints with Pathos Clamps: 
Immediately unlocks to be used by Drifter. For Warframe use, a Blueprint will be sent to your Foundry to be crafted. 

After obtaining your new Melee weapon, you can practice your melee skills on the dummy located to the right of the weapons. Here you can get familiar with the basics of meleeing as the Drifter.

Earning Mastery for these new Melee weapons is tied exclusively to Warframe use.

Read on to the DRIFTER COMBAT section below to learn more about how to wield your Melee weapon and more!
 

 

DRIFTER COMBAT 

Ready your Drifter with the skills necessary to take on the dangers of Duviri.

DRIFTER WEAPON ATTACKS

Quick Shot (Ranged)
Use LZ + RZ to take a quick shot with your Sirocco pistol while your Melee weapon is equipped.

3. Restorative

4. Smoke Screen
Cast to throw a smoke grenade that releases smoke in a 10 meter radius, turning Drifter and teammates invisible while inside of it.

Pedigree 
Kaithes come in a multitude of species, each with their own history. The Histornam Kaithe is available after completing The Duviri Paradox Quest, while other Kaithe species are available for purchase with Platinum individually or in the in-game Market Packs listed below. Pedigree purchases come with their respective tails!

• Aetigo: Aetigo Kaithes are a native species of Duviri’s southernmost island. Their emerald eyes once reflected the verdant plains they roamed, but when the island was reduced to ash, their eyes faded to nothing.
• Histornam: It is said that the great Dominus Thrax prefers Histornam Kaithes above all other breeds. It was on the back of a Histornam Kaithe that Thrax himself learned to ride.
• Psyacus: Psyacus Kaithes inspire fear in the faint of heart. Common wisdom among Duviri citizens holds that those who mount the Psyacus Kaithe must be either courageous or heartless.

Chamfrons
Chamfrons are stylish head armor each with its own unique flair. Individual Chamfroms are available for purchase with Platinum and are also part of the in-game Market Packs listed below. 

• Sviari: The might of the Kaithe rider is expressed through the Sviari Chamfron’s sharp horns.
• Dyrncaul: The Dyrncaul Chamfron’s curved horns are reminiscent of the Tamm, a creature whose happiness is said to bring good fortune.
• Irdeni: The Irdeni Chamfron is reminiscent of the ever-changing hues in Duviri’s sky.
• Kheyur: The Kheyur Chamfron benefits any formal occasion.

Tails
Tails can be obtained with Platinum by purchasing Pedigrees (which come with their respective Tails) or by purchasing individual Tails in Teshin’s Cave and in the in-game Market. They are also part of the in-game Market Packs listed below. 

• Aetigo: The Aetigo Kaithe came into being with this dignified tail.
• Histornam: The Histornam Kaithe came into being with this regal tail.
• Psyacus: The Psyacus Kaithe came into being with this tapered tail.
• Caersid: The Caersid Tail bespeaks the spirit of the vengeful warrior.
• Heoro: A Kaithe with the Heoro Tail evokes glory.
• Velific: Adorn the movements of an elegant Kaithe with the Velific Tail.
• Aebolg: Bones laid bare in the Aebolg Tail are a reminder to appreciate the gift of life.

Saddles
For a Drifter looking to make their time riding on Kaithe as comfortable as can be. Individual Saddles are available for purchase with Platinum and are also part of the in-game Market Packs listed below.

• Dovin: The Dovin Saddle’s deep curve and lightweight structure make for strong balance and gentle communication with the Kaithe.
• Vaidurian: The Vaidurian Saddle’s comfortable and sturdy design is ideal for those long hours riding Kaithes.
• Sohseki: Style and comfort meet in the Sohseki Saddle. Its padding provides stability and protection during jumps.

THE SPIRALS

The denizens of Duviri call upon the aid of the Drifter during each SPIRAL. Let the tale of a particular citizen of Duviri guide you through the tempest of Dominus Thrax’s emotional turmoil as they work through their own emotional journey. 

Complete a variety of challenges that force you to rely on a robust set of skills while earning DECREES that will grant you different tactical advantages throughout your mission. 

As you delve into each Spiral, your narrator will present you with tasks similar to Bounty Stages.  Overcome those within Duviri as the Drifter, and access portals to fight with your selected Warframe in THE UNDERCROFT. 

If you successfully make it to the finale of the respective Spiral, prepare to battle the OROWYRM and its WYRMLINGS! 

Completing main Spiral Stages and side objectives will earn you DRIFTER INTRINSICS and other rewards. Use these in your next visit to Teshin’s Cave to unlock new skills and abilities for the Drifter’s journey in Duviri. 

The Spiral Tales
Dominus Thrax is a creature of emotion, and his world is at the whim of his every Spiral. Each Spiral paints Duviri with a wash of intense emotion, altering its weather and environment, and inflicting chaos on all those who inhabit its lands. Learn more about how the Spirals affect Duviri in the “Explore Duviri Landscape” section. 
 

There are a total of 5 Spirals, each with their own unique story and featured characters narrated by a voice that may be distantly familiar to some Tenno. 

They rotate in the following order every 2 hours and change the landscape with it: 

1. JOY
Tale Of “The Harbinger of Joy” 
Don’t be fooled by the softness of Duviri during this Spiral, Tenno. The Harbinger of Joy tells the tale of Mathila. 

During the Joy Spiral, enemies are imbued with Void Damage, causing their attacks to take new form; from devastating waves of Void energy to health leeching pulses on impact. 

2. ANGER
Tale Of “The Prince of Fire” 
Skies of crimson engulf Duviri during this Spiral. The Prince of Fire tells the tale of Lodun and the rage felt over his royalty holding no real authority.

During the Anger Spiral, enemies are imbued with Heat Damage, causing their attacks to take new form; from molten fireballs that explode on impact to trails of flames left behind by charging enemies. 

3. ENVY
Tale of “The Covetous Courtier” 
The green gaze of envy watches you from the sky, Tenno. The Covetous Courtier tells the tale of Bombastine and his perpetual state of jealousy. 

During the Envy Spiral, enemies are imbued with Toxin Damage, causing their attacks to take new form; from acid-goo projectiles that splash on impact to acid geysers. 

4. SORROW
Tale of “The Sorrowful Soprano” 
Duviri’s bleak state leaves a shiver that reaches deep in the bone. The Sorrowful Soprana tells the tale of Luscinia and her indulging misery to excess. 

During the Sorrow Spiral, enemies are imbued with Cold Damage, causing their attacks to take new form; from ice spikes erupting from the ground to frozen areas of a chilling aura.

5. FEAR
Tale of “The Fearful Conspirator” 
Duviri is enveloped in the uncertainty of what lies next. The Fearful Conspirator tells the tale of Sythel and the fears that paralyze her. 

During the Fear Spiral, enemies are imbued with Electricity Damage, causing their attacks to take new form; from continuous beams of electricity arcs to teleportation maneuvers. 
 

Leaving Duviri: 
Whether you choose to see the conclusion of a Spiral or decide to depart Duviri early, all rewards and Intrinsics acquired in your mission will be saved as of your last-earned Decree. These indicate reward progress checkpoints and occur each time you complete a Side Objective (that rewards you a Decree) or main stage in the Spiral. 

Departing from the Duviri landscape is done by opening the pause menu and then selecting the “LEAVE DUVIRI” option to return to either the Dormizone or the Orbiter. 

For new players that chose the Drifter Path: The Orbiter option becomes available to you once you complete The Duviri Paradox Quest and head to the marker to “Begin the Warframe path with your next quest”. 

Another more unfortunate method of leaving Duviri is its draining of your life force and depleting of your revives. 

DECREES

Decrees are upgrades that apply to your Drifter and Warframe for the duration of your stay in the Duviri Landscape. Each visit to Duviri means a new opportunity to select different combinations to increase your power and utility. 

Decrees are earned by completing main stages, side objectives, and/or by surviving the Undercroft. If you are playing in a squad, all players are rewarded your earned Decree,  including the brave Drifters that assist with completing side objectives. 

Upon earning a Decree, a popup will appear instructing you to select from the options available: 

 

Choose one of the 3 (base Drifter Intrinsics) randomized options available each time you earn a Decree. The selected Decrees will remain active for the duration of your time in Duviri. Decrees are rewarded up until each of the ones you have obtained have reached their max amount of stacks, at which point a  “Decrees Exhausted” pop-up will occur to inform you that you have collected them all! 

 

Players may occasionally be presented with a Rare Decree in their selections, as indicated by its gold border. “Rare” as it pertains to Decrees simply means that they offer double the stat upgrades of a normal Decree (up to the maximum amount of stacks). 

Rare Decrees are guaranteed after completing a round in the Undercroft, by completing the final stage (slaying the Orowyrm) of the Spiral, and as a bonus one-time item in Acrithis’ Wares while in the Duviri Landscape!

The pips at the bottom of each Decree indicate the number required to reach max stacks.

 

Your chosen Decrees can be viewed via the pause menu at any time: 

 

Decrees also have several interactions with Drifter Intrinsics. Unlocking new Intrinsics can offer new benefits for every foray into Duviri, such as the ability to re-roll the offered Decrees up to three times per mission with the Rank 6 “Fresh Hand” Opportunity Intrinsic.

Here is a list of all of the possible Decrees you can earn in Duviri:

THE UNDERCROFT

The veil between the world of Warframe and the kingdom of Duviri is thin. Thinner still in the Undercroft, where our reality and Dominus Thrax’s imagination collide. As you venture into the Kingdom of Duviri, you may come across Undercroft Portals as part of the Spiral Stages. The Undercroft is a Warframe and Operator only section of Duviri where you have use of your chosen Warframe and Weapons from Teshin’s Cave.

Upon entering a Portal, your task is to use the tools granted to you in Teshin’s Cave to survive the onslaught. Complete the mission objective presented, and be rewarded!

The current mission types available in the Undercroft are as follows: 

• Defense (Defend 5 waves)
• Survival (Survive 5 Minutes)
• Excavation (Excavate 300 Cryotic)
• Void Flood (Seal 5 Ruptures) 
• Exterminate (Kill required number of Enemies)

As you explore these brand new mission tiles, you will come to learn the quirks and tricks needed to master the Undercroft:

• Players have innate Enemy Sense (enemy location is displayed in mini-map) 
• Players cannot use their Gear Wheel, nor equip Companions of either the Furry or Robotic persuasion
• Exalted Equipment (including Exalted Companions like Venari) are used in the Undercroft, and will use the builds in your selected Mod Configs for your Warframe (i.e. it will use your custom Mod Configs if you choose them, or Default Mods should you go that route instead). 
• Players use the Focus School and Operator Equipment of their active loadout upon entering Teshin’s Cave, including their choice of Operator or Drifter (for those who know what that means).
• Energy Pickups spawn at certain locations across Undercroft Tiles. Search them out for an added boost to your Energy pool.
• Rune Marrow is found only in the Undercroft. Look for Runic Compact deposits scattered around to unearth this Resource. 

In the Undercroft, you will also come across foes from both the Origin System and Duviri, so pick your loadouts wisely! 
 

The Undercroft in The Lone Story and The Duviri Experience
For those venturing into the Undercroft via Portals in the Spiral stories, your time in the Undercroft is short. After completing the mission objective (ex: Defending 5 waves in Defense mission), you will be transported back into the Kingdom of Duviri to continue onto the next stage. 

Completion of Undercroft Portals from the Duviri Landscape reward the following:

• 1x Decree
• 6x Drifter Intrinsics
• Duviri Resources

The Undercroft in The Circuit
The Circuit is an endless game mode that takes place exclusively in the Undercroft, with its own reward paths and features! Look for “The Circuit” section further down for more specifics on this game mode.  

 

 

THE OROWYRM 

A mighty airborne beast of tremendous scale who darkens the skies of Duviri. Its rumbling gives way to understanding that taking it down will not be an easy feat. Meet with this grand creature in the final stage of a Spiral. 

Its many defense mechanisms include emitting waves of energy down its body that repel any who get too close, as well as enlisting the help of WYRMLINGS to provide additional protection. Expect them to coil and swirl in tight circles before launching a fireball in your direction! 

Defeating the Orowyrm will require mastery of the Drifter and your chosen Warframe for a multi-stage fight across Duviri. As well as mastering your Kaithe mount’s flight controls – an important component to fighting the Orowyrm! 

Upon taking down an Orowyrm, a chest will appear for you to open. Doing so rewards 10x PATHOS CLAMPS (15x in Steel Path), 15x Drifter Intrinsics (22x in Steel Path), and a Rare Decree. Pathos Clamps can be exchanged for new Melee Weapons for Drifter and Warframe alike, used to imbue INCARNON GENESIS ADAPTERS into weapons, as well as traded for goods at ACRITHIS, who greets you at the end of the fight. Read the “Duviri’s Vendor: Acrithis” section to learn more about her and her wares!
 

 

KAITHE MOUNT 

Completing The Duviri Paradox Quest rewards you with your very own KAITHE, an equestrian mount with the power of flight! Kaithes provide Drifter a speedier method to traverse Duviri, whether on ground or in the skies.    

KAITHE CONTROLS 

Summon Kaithe: 
Reach the Riding Drifter Intrinsic Rank 1 to summon your Kaithe by using Drifter’s first ability binding. 

• Default Binding: R (hold) then B

Take Flight: 

• On Ground: Crouch and jump at the same time to take off, just like bullet jumping.
  • Default Binding: L (hold) then B) OR hold jump for liftoff 

  Airborne Kaithe: If you are falling while riding Kaithe, use the Roll binding to deploy Kaithe’s wings. 

  • Default Binding: L (tap while moving)

  Airborne Drifter: If you are falling as Drifter, summoning your Kaithe will auto deploy their wings to get you back to safe ground. 

  • Default Binding: R (hold) then B)

Flight Controls: 
There are two flight modes – glide and free. Upon taking flight, your Kaithe will simply glide forward and allow you to look around without changing directions. Holding any directional input (forward, left, right, sprint) will put Kaithe into free mode, where you can use the reticle to move about freely through the air (vertically and horizontally). Releasing directional input will put Kaithe back into glide mode.

• Ascend in Flight: Jump to climb higher into the skies.
  • Default Binding: B
• Descend in Flight: Crouch to dive down. 
  • Default Binding: L (hold)
• Roll in Flight: Perform a roll maneuver while flying, especially useful to dodge incoming projectiles!
  • Default Binding: L (tap while moving)

Increase Speed: 
Use the Sprint binding to kick up your Kaithe’s speed on the ground and in the skies.

• Default Binding:  Press Left Stick

Reduce Speed: 

• Use Crouch binding to slow Kaithe to a walk. 
  • Default Binding: Press Left Stick
• In Flight: Release the Sprint button to slow your Kaithe’s speed in air. 

KAITHE ABILITIES
Kaithes have their own set of abilities that can be unlocked via the Riding Drifter Intrinsics. 

1st Ability – Summon & Mount/Dismount
Unlocked at Rank 1 of the Riding Drifter Intrinsics. 

Summon your Kaithe by using your first ability binding. Use the binding again to dismount from Kaithe. Dismounting can also be performed by melee attacking and can occur when taking damage from enemies. 

2nd Ability – Guiding Hand 
Available by default. 

Drifter maintains their Guiding Hand ability while riding Kaithe to spawn a helpful wisp that guides toward primary objectives and gives Duviri a little color, even if only temporarily.

3rd Ability – Hoof Stomp
Unlocked at Rank 3 of the Riding Drifter Intrinsics. 

Kaithe aggressively stomps into the ground, even from flight, creating a shockwave to stagger and damage all enemies in the area. 

4th Ability – Steadfast Dismount
Unlocked at Rank 6 of the Riding Drifter Intrinsics. 

While riding a Kaithe, use your 4th ability to gain 150 OVERGUARD (a defense mechanism that grants 150 additional Health protection and provides Knockdown Immunity as long as there is an amount remaining). 150 second cooldown between uses.
 

SIDE OBJECTIVES 

Duviri comes with enough side objectives to keep even Dominus Thrax entertained. Completing Side Objectives rewards all players in your Squad a Decree, 3x Drifter Intrinsics, and Duviri Resources to make your time exploring Duviri easier. Many of the following side objectives are marked within the landscape:

 

 

MAW FEEDING
Fishing takes new form in Duviri – do away with Spears and Bait and step into the Maw to start the feeding frenzy! Maw Feeding can be started at Transference Pads located near bodies of water, where Drifter can take control of the Golden Maw for a short time to chase and chomp down fish. 

 

Maw Controls: 

• Increase speed: Sprint binding 
• Chomp: Weapon Fire and/or Melee Attack binding 
• Rush Chomp: Jump binding 

Maw Feeding progress is tracked by a bar at the top of the screen, with two tiers of rewards to meet:

• Tier 1 – 10 Fish Fed: Earn Fishing Resources (shared Squad-Wide)
• Tier 2 – 15 Fish Fed: Additional Fishing Resources, and the chance to earn a live Duviri Fish that can be placed in the Aquarium of your Personal Quarters in your Orbiter.

Once per Duviri mission, reaching Tier 1 of Maw Feeding will also reward you 3x Drifter Intrinsics, Duviri Resources (non-fishing), and a Decree as well!

List of available Fish through Maw Feeding:

Inaak
Some theorize that Duviri stands upon the shell of a giant Inaak. Naturally, some wonder what the giant Inaak stands upon. The answer, of course, is other Inaaks, all the way down.

Xiran
The Golden Maw finds Xirans exceptionally delicious.

Haav
Haav prefer to swim near the surface. Duviri citizens often mistake them for logs, which can be startling when Haav show their fangs.

Namaes
The Namaes has evolved the ability to tense its tail muscles and use its tail as a fearsome weapon.

Seonn
The Seonn’s ability to flare its neck and hood makes it impossible for most predators to swallow, but the Golden Maw can overcome its defense.

The following resources can be obtained from Maw Feeding: 

Nacreous Pebble 
Collectors like to marvel at the peculiar origin of Nacreous Pebbles. Their beauty is the result of ordinary pebbles having been ingested and regurgitated by the Golden Maw.

Ariette Scale 
Each Duviri fish species has distinct features, but they all evolved beautiful chromatic scales.

Maw Fang 
Looks like someone got carried away during a delicious meal.
 

 

CONSERVATION
As you traverse through Duviri you may encounter creatures that have been doused in Void corruption and are easily agitated if you stray into their gaze. Koral, a citizen of Duviri who has a particular dedication to these creatures will let you know if there is one in need close by. You’ll be able to spot them from their distinct sentry-like gaze sweeping across the land, which will alert them to you if you stray too close to their inquisitive beams. They all have unique behavior while under the corruptive influence of the Void, tread carefully when attempting to cleanse these influenced beasts. 

If they become alerted to your presence, they will attempt to flee if given enough time or if too much damage is accidentally dealt. You will need to rely on a mixture of stealth and cunning to subdue these creatures, saving them from the chaos of the void itself.

Approach the Void-riddled beast and get in close enough to rid it of corruption. If alerted, you will need to subdue the creature before you can cleanse the animal of the Void. Once cleansed, the purified beast will be calm enough for you to pet them. Once pet, these newly freed beasts will lead you to a Hidden Chest as a show of gratitude.  

Conservation does require repeated button presses when subduing the creature. Note that there is an accessibility option for this input that will shift the required input from “Tap” to “Hold”. This option can be found under “Repeated Button Presses” within the Accessibility tab in the Options Menu. 

You will also encounter these same animals that happen to be perfectly calm and domesticated while exploring Duviri. These beasts are not in need of saving and can simply be pet if you so choose! Fear not, unlike their Void addled brethren, these creatures cannot be harmed or agitated by any stray attacks.

 

There are three animals you may encounter in need of saving:

Krubie
Krubies are fiercely loyal. They do not hesitate to risk their own safety for the good of their pack.

Tamm
Tamms delight in soft grass, fresh water, and companionship. Fortune smiles upon the shepherd who provides such things for the gentle Tamm.

Kexat
Kexats hunt Paragrimms and Rablits and love to be pampered.

 

 

SHAWZIN PLAYING 
Put on a show for the habitants of Duviri! Shawzins can be found near eager patrons looking to be serenaded, or in serene locations where a Drifter can play for themselves. Shawzin songs vary from location to location, and come with two difficulties to play: Normal and Virtuoso.

Completing a song on any difficulty will reward a Decree, 3 Intrinsics, and Resources, once per Shawzin Song per Duviri visit. Meaning once you have completed a song at one location, you’ll have to find a new Shawzin to play to earn more rewards — but if you simply want to enjoy the sounds of the Shawzin you can replay it as many times as you want! 

Complete each of the 12 Shawzin songs on their Virtuoso difficulty to receive the COURTLY SHAWZIN* – delight elite audiences with its elegant ornamentation and unique sound found only in Duviri. 

 

*Due to only being able to acquire this Shawzin once via playing in Duviri, players will be unable to Contribute this item to their Dojo Treasuries. 

Once obtained, it can be placed as a decoration in your Orbiter or Dormizone or played! To use, equip the Shawzin Emote onto your Emote Wheel in the Arsenal, and activate in mission to strum some chords!  Every Shawzin Song has its own unique location within the Duviri Kingdom, so explore Thrax’s world to find them all. 

Note: Seeing as Shawzin playing is a more relaxed activity, if there are enemies within 50 meters of it you will not be able to start your symphony until you’ve cleared the threat. 
 

ENIGMAS 
Duviri is riddled with a plenitude of mysterious puzzles known as Enigmas across its landscape! Look for Glyph plates in the area, apparitions from another time and place, and many many more oddities to solve and earn rewards. 

Certain puzzles require two players to begin – these will only ever appear in multiplayer Duviri sessions. Coordinate with your squadmates to solve these headscratchers! 

Possible Rewards for solving Enigmas include: 

• CINTA Blueprints (New Primary Bow weapon) 
  • The drop rates increase when playing in a Squad!
• Standard Side Objective reward of Duviri Resources, 1x Decree, and 3x Intrinsics
• Enigma Gyrum – A token celebrating the successful solution of a Duviri Enigma. 
  • Earned exclusively from completing Enigmas and can be used to purchase the Watchful Paragrimm Decoration in Acrithis’ Wares!

NEW WEAPON: CINTA 
The versatile Cinta can fire arrows in quick succession, quickly charge a shock wave, or fully charge a powerful focused shot. 

The Cinta is eligible to appear as an option in Teshin’s Cave with Default Mods if you do not own it! In addition to earning its Blueprints in Duviri, it can be purchased for instant access from the in-game Market. 

Enigma solving can also appear as a Spiral stage.

 

 

UNLOCK CHESTS
Duviri has a wealth of locked chests just sitting around, waiting to be opened! Unlocking them requires one of a variety of tasks to be completed and doing so successfully will earn you the rewards sealed within. Prepare to reconnect power lines, master the new Duviri Hacking Puzzle, or defeat the hostile forces guarding them to access these chests’ riches. 

Hidden Chests can also appear as a Spiral stage. 

Duviri Hacking Puzzle: 
On many of the locked chests and challenges scattered throughout Duviri, you will encounter a puzzle that requires a mix of timing and patience to succeed. You will need to select nodes along rotating concentric rings and time your selections correctly to crack the code. 

 

There is the option to slow down or accelerate the speed of the rings, making it easier to pinpoint the nodes needed to complete the puzzle. 

Ring speed controls: 

• Decrease puzzle rings’ speed using L or left on the D-pad
  Increase puzzle rings’ speed using R or right on the D-pad 

Note: Increasing or decreasing the speed for the ring rotations will not affect the speed of the timer for the puzzle.

If you are unable to solve the puzzle before the timer runs out, you will be confronted by a group of Dax enemies that will attempt to guard the chest. Once vanquished, you’ll be able to access the chest, unlocked. 
 

 

PLAY KOMI
Komi is a board game well known among the Duviri residents. Sit down as Drifter and play a nice, relaxing game of Komi with the locals by visiting nearby towns and finding a board to get the game started. 

The rules are simple: 

• Surround enemy stones to capture them.
• Block the enemy from surrounding your own stones.
• You cannot block or surround stones using diagonal placements. 
• Immediately after a capture, you cannot place a stone in the same spot from which the stone was captured. 
• Capture 10 stones to win the match.

Komi Tips:

• Place stones near other stones to shore up your position and create capture opportunities.
• Loosely connected clusters of stones offer flexibility, but they also leave you more vulnerable. 
• Start at the center of the board to give yourself plenty of room to respond to your opponent. 
• Focus on large captures as you approach the end of the match.
• You can strategically sacrifice stones to create capture opportunities. 
• Connected stones are your strongest defense.
• Cast a wide net in the early game to limit your opponent’s maneuverability. 
• Do your best to accomplish more than one strategic goal with each stone you place. 

You can concede a game of Komi at any point – you can always try again!

Note: Seeing as Komi is a more relaxed activity, if there are enemies within 50 meters of you you will not be able to start the game until you’ve cleared the threat. 
 

 

KAITHE RACING
Put your riding skills to the test! Mount your Kaithe and race across the ground and through the sky to clear gates and complete the race in record time. Shooting race targets throughout the race grants additional time – the better your time, the better the rewards!

Kaithe Races can also appear as a Spiral stage. 

 

 

TAMM HERDING
Tamms have managed to escape and need to be led back into their pen! Approaching a Tamm on foot or Kaithe-back will scare it in the opposite direction, so track down a few Tamms and walk them back into their pen. 

Tamm Herding can also appear as a Spiral stage.

RESCUE PRISONERS
The Drifter isn’t the only one trapped in Duviri – several citizens have found themselves in unfortunate predicaments that require your assistance. Prevent foes from getting near the Prisoner in their attempt to capture them. Keep the Dax away for long enough (while staying close to the target yourself), and your rescue effort will be a sure success! Killing enemies increases the rate at which the prisoner can be freed. 

Prisoner Rescues can also appear as a Spiral stage.

 

 

ASSEMBLE THE SHRINES
Activate shrines found throughout the Duviri Landscape for rewards! Defeat attackers and collect Shrine pieces to put it back together.

The Archarbor 
Appears during the Joy, Envy, and Sorrow Spirals. 

The Amphitheater 
Appears during the Joy, Envy, Anger, and Fear Spirals. 

DUVIRI ENEMIES

Duviri is home to many unmet foes. Dax units at the whim of Dominus Thrax’s every Spiral, creatures who lurk in the shadows, and other formidable opponents who are bound to challenge your skill. Each Dax unit has its own specialty maneuvers that can be countered, watch for icons above their head to indicate when they are vulnerable to interrupt their next move. 

Dax enemy levels increase per stage by +2 (+5 on Steel Path).  When playing in a squad, their Health also increases with each squad member. 

Dax Herald
This Dax carries a banner to rally other Dax units nearby. They perform stabbing and slashing attacks with their polearm, and can summon a damaging field which they move towards the Drifter. Found across Duviri.

Dax Malleus
This hulking Dax carries a hammer that matches their size to slam and smash anything in their way. They are capable of projecting a shield and performing smashes that must be avoided rather than blocked. Found across Duviri.

Dax Gladius
This rank and file Dax of Dominus Thrax’s army carries a sword and prefers to fight up close and personal. Their attacks specialize in closing the gap with jumps and dashes. Their speed is paired with a powerful two-stage ground slam, causing an explosion down into the ground before sending it airborne moments later. Found across Duviri.

Dax Arcus
Dax Arcus are trained in the usage of bows, preferring to keep distance from their foe. They will retreat quickly if approached and fire precise shots from afar, occasionally raining down arrows within an area. Found across Duviri.

Liminus
A shadow creature with vicious claws and the ability to leech life. They hide when attacked, but will reappear moments later to continue their assault. They can be found in the darkest shadows of Duviri.

MINI BOSS: Dax Equitem
These Dax are trained in mounted combat, and will fight drifters while riding Kaithe-back. Equitem are tougher than other Dax and will require multiple finishing moves to take down. Found in Spiral Story objectives.
 

MATERLITHS
Monoliths of great stature, providing a healing aura to those who approach it. Found along the paths most traveled. 

They can also be teleported to once you achieve the Rank 4 Riding Intrinsic “Fast Travel” by opening the map and selecting the Materlith icons.

DUVIRI RESOURCES
The following resources can be found in any and all of your visits to Duviri – some by completing activities, others by harvesting resource formations, and more! Resources can be turned in at ACRITHIS for Wares, used to build new Duviri Weapons in your Foundry, or consumed as part of the Incarnon Genesis upgrade system.  Learn more about those various systems in their dedicated sections further below!

Kovnik Extract
Duviri citizens harvest Kovnik leaves to blend invigorating teas. 

Eevani Extract 
Duviri citizens have been known to mash Eevani leaves into a paste that alleviates the discomfort caused by fresh wounds.

Connla Sprout Extract
The water that courses through Connla Sprouts tastes sweet and refreshing.

Yao Shrub Extract 
The warm light of the Yao Shrub glows even within cold dark places.

Dracroot Extract 
Dracroot is a staple of the Wyrmling’s diet.

Tasoma Extract 
Duviri citizens plagued by nightmares seek Tasoma, because its stalks can be crushed to create juice that invites pleasant dreams. Unfortunately, it is difficult to forage Tasoma as it only grows in caves.

Silphsela
It is traditionally held that to see Silphsela floating in the air heralds an imminent change in the sky. Found from Sun Silphs. 

Saggen Pearl
Thrax warriors use the heavy liquid drawn from Saggen Wells to polish their weapons.

Aggristone
It is said that Aggri Formations are hardened saliva from mighty Orowyrms. Duviri citizens believe Aggristones are powerful talismans. 

Rune Marrow
Rune Marrow erupts from Duviri’s core. It is found exclusively in the Undercroft. 

Lamentus
A whisper of the fallen. Dropped from slain Dax enemies on the Duviri Landscape. 

Pathos Clamp
The manifestation of Thrax’s malevolence that shapes the Orowyrms’ outbursts.

Nacreous Pebble (Maw Feeding) 
Collectors like to marvel at the peculiar origin of Nacreous Pebbles. Their beauty is the result of ordinary pebbles having been ingested and regurgitated by the Golden Maw.

Ariette Scale (Maw Feeding) 
Each Duviri fish species has distinct features, but they all evolved beautiful chromatic scales.

Maw Fang (Maw Feeding) 
Looks like someone got carried away during a delicious meal.

 

DUVIRI ON THE STEEL PATH

Experience Duviri on an entirely new level with The Steel Path! For those unfamiliar with this path, it is a difficulty modifier for existing nodes in the Star Chart to test your strength against significantly more difficult enemies. 

How to Unlock for Duviri: 
If you do not already have The Steel Path available to you, players must complete all of the nodes in the Origin System’s Star Chart and then speak to Teshin in the Relays. Upon doing this, and completing the Duviri Paradox Quest, the Steel Path toggle will appear for the Duviri Region to enable/disable these mission variants. 

Note: Duviri missions are not required to unlock the Steel Path, as previously seen with the Empyrean Star Chart.

Duviri Steel Path Modifiers: 
Difficulty scaling for Duviri is different from what you may be used to in the regular Star Chart, as it is quite unlike the rest of Warframe. 

In the Duviri landscape, enemy level is increased by +20 but with no additional modifiers to Health, Shield, or Armor. The Orowyrm fight at the end of Spiral also has additional stages and mechanics for those who want to engage in a more challenging fight — with extra rewards for your effort. Traveling Duviri on the Steel Path earns you additional Intrinsics upon defeating the Orowyrm (22 instead of the usual 15), as well as extra Pathos Clamps (15 instead of 10). 

In the Undercroft, enemies have the default Steel Path modifiers of +100 enemy level, 250% Health, Shield and Armor. 

These enemy modifiers are indicated upon hovering over the Steel Path toggle in the Duviri Navigation screen. 

Seeing as Duviri exists beyond the confines of the Origin System, Acolytes do not spawn here. However, Steel Essence is still rewarded for each mode: 

• The Circuit: Via the 9th Reward Tier (read The Circuit section below for full details)
• The Duviri Landscape: 5x Steel Essence rewarded for defeating the Orowyrm. 

Note: The Steel Path Trophy and Emote for the Duviri Region will be coming in a later update. Thank you for your patience! 

 

THE DORMIZONE – A PASSAGE UNLOCKED

For those who have not yet ventured to the Zariman, Duviri will be your first introduction to the Dormizone – another place of respite for your Tenno. 

For pre-Angels of the Zariman players, you can now visit the Dormizone after the completion of the Duviri Paradox Quest via the Duviri Region in your Navigation. Whether you are new to or already familiar with the Dormizone, you can venture behind a previously-locked door to access Duviri. In the passage to Teshin’s Cave, you will also find the following:     

• Drifter Intrinsics
• The Lost Islands of Duviri Fragments
• Acrithis and her Wares 
• Access to the Arsenal and Drifter Appearance via Mirror
   

THE LOST ISLANDS OF DUVIRI FRAGMENTS

The logs of Acrithis the archivist uncover much more about the Lost Islands of Duviri. Collect the Lost Islands of Duviri Fragments scattered throughout to unlock her findings in the Codex. Listen for their distinct song when you are near one. 

 

Access these stories after completing the required amount of pickups via the Codex in the Orbiter > Universe > Fragments > Duviri, or visit Acrithis’ archives in the Dormizone. 

Collecting a Fragment will also reward you with 5x Drifter Intrinsics. 

 

THE DUVIRI VENDOR: ACRITHIS 

Acrithis aids you in bridging the world of Warframe and the Kingdom of Duviri. Browse her wares to exchange Duviri Resources for those found in the Origin System, purchase Captura Scenes of the Duviri Landscape, and obtain new Duviri-themed Decorations. 

Here, you can also trade in your Pathos Clamps (earned by defeating the Orowyrm) for various rarities. Five of these offerings will be available to purchase each week, rotating at Sundays at 00:00 UTC:

• Orokin Reactor and Catalyst Blueprints
• Exilus and Arcane Adapters
• Riven Mods
• Forma Blueprints
• Kuva

Duviri Arcanes can also be purchased from Acrithis upon reaching Rank 9 in your Opportunity Intrinsic. One Arcane can be exchanged for Pathos Clamps once per day, with wares rotating daily at 00:00 UTC:

• Arcane Reaper 
• Arcane Intention 
• Primary Exhilarate
• Longbow Sharpshot 
• Shotgun Vendetta 
• Primary Obstruct

• Origin System Resources (Rotating every few hours)

Acrithis’ wares rotate often, so be sure to visit her during your journeys to Duviri to see all that she has to offer. Should you not wish to find her in your Dormizone, you can also find her in the Duviri Landscape with the help of her custom Map icon

• In her Carriage, which changes location depending on the current Spiral 
• In the courtyard of The King’s Palace after defeating the Orowyrm
   

 

In addition to her usual wares, if you are lucky enough to come across her path in Duviri she will offer a Rare Decree for purchase. It can only be purchased once during your visit in Duviri.

NEW GAMEMODE: THE CIRCUIT

In The Circuit, master the equipment Teshin has offered you in an endless series of Undercroft  Stages to prove your mettle and progress towards weekly rewards. Two paths are available to you to, each with their own award:

• Normal Circuit, for Warframe acquisition
• Steel Path Circuit, to obtain Incarnon Genesis 

Similar to your other experiences in Duviri, your path on the Circuit is shaped by the current Spiral. Before you venture into the Undercroft, you must pass through Teshin’s Cave and pick your loadout from the Warframes and Weapons available. 

(Note: the equipment you can choose from per Spiral will be the same across all versions of Duviri, including both variants of the Circuit.)

Unlike the rest of Duviri, in the Circuit you will primarily play as your Warframe, and have full access to your Operator or Drifter as you know them in the Origin System. The Focus School and Operator Equipment (including Amps, Arcanes, and Appearance) of your active loadout upon entering Teshin’s Cave will be what is used in the Undercroft — including your choice of Operator or Drifter, for those who know what that means. 

The Gameplay
Once you have your equipment decided, the Circuit awaits beyond the portal! Here, you will be thrown into a randomized series of missions in an endless loop — until you decide to extract, of course! 

The list of available mission types are as follows:

• Defense (Defend 5 waves)
• Survival (Survive 5 Minutes)
• Excavation (Excavate 300 Cryotic)
• Void Flood (Seal 5 Ruptures) 
• Exterminate (Kill required Enemies)

While these mission types may seem familiar to you, the foes you will encounter will be a mixture of new and old, across a variety of factions! After the completion of each Stage, the Mission Type of the following Stage will be visible in the Stage Completion screen, to help you decide whether to continue, or Extract. 

At the completion of every Stage, there are four guaranteed rewards:

• 1x Decree
• 4x Drifter Intrinsics
• Duviri Resources
• Circuit Progress

Unlike regular endless missions with rotation-based drop tables, the main rewards are earned via Reward Tiers which are unlocked with Circuit Progress. We’ll get more into that shortly!

Gameplay Restrictions
You may have access to your Warframe and Operator (if you have one from completing The Second Dream Quest in the Origin System), but it’s still not quite the reality you’re used to. In the Undercroft, your Gear Wheel and Companions/Sentinels are unavailable, but all players are given innate Enemy Sense. 

Given the variety of mission types you can come across, you can customize your builds beforehand and select the best configuration in Teshin’s Cave tailored to your Circuit experience!

Decree Fragments
Scattered around each mission tile are Decree Fragments — found via their tell-tale glow. Collect three Fragments to earn an extra Decree for your squad, as well as 3x Intrinsics and Duviri Resources. Three Fragments spawn per tile, but your Fragment progress persists across Stages if you complete your objective before finding them all. 

 

Choose Your Reward Path

Before entering the Circuit, you must make a choice: what Reward Path do you wish to take? 

Note: If you have yet to select your reward path and are sent an invite to join a squad in The Circuit, you will be prompted to select your reward path first before joining!

Normal Circuit:
The reward path for Normal Circuit Missions centers around Warframes. The first time you enter the Normal Circuit each week (following the weekly reset on Sundays at 00:00 UTC), you will be prompted to select a Warframe to work towards, from a pool of three choices. This selection is required before you can play Normal Circuit missions, and cannot be changed once confirmed — so choose wisely!

The Warframes currently available in the Normal Circuit are those with Prime Variants available, and/or those not acquirable via Dojo Research. Three Warframes will be available to choose from each week. A full list of Warframes available in the Circuit can be found below, scheduled in the following order (release order, for those savvy Tenno out there):

Spoiler

Excalibur
Trinity
Ember
Loki
Mag
Rhino
Ash
Frost
Nyx
Saryn
Vauban
Nova
Nekros
Valkyr
Oberon
Hydroid
Mirage
Limbo
Mesa
Chroma
Atlas
Ivara
Inaros
Titania
Nidus
Octavia
Harrow
Gara
Khora
Revenant
Garuda
Baruuk
Hildryn

The exact weekly rotation will change as more Warframes get added to this pool, but here is an example of how the weekly schedules look upon launch:

Week 1:
Excalibur
Trinity
Ember

Week 2:
Loki
Mag
Rhino

Week 3: 
Ash
Frost
Nyx

And so on!

With your reward path selected, you’ll be provided with a full view of your reward tiers for the week. Each Stage you complete will contribute Circuit Progress towards your Reward Tiers in the Circuit. We’ll cover this more in-depth a little later. 

 

The items in your Reward Path include your selected Warframe’s Blueprints, an Augment for said Warframe, and an assortment of other items pulled from curated Reward Pools. 

Normal Circuit Reward Tiers
There are 10 Tiers a player must progress through to earn the full Warframe, with guaranteed items at certain Tiers each week:

• Tier 2: Warframe Neuroptics Blueprint
• Tier 4: Rare Mod
• Tier 5: Warframe Chassis Blueprint
• Tier 7: Warframe Augment Mod
• Tier 8: Warframe Systems Blueprint
• Tier 9: Common Warframe Arcane
• Tier 10: Warframe Blueprint

Note: These are of your chosen Warframe for the Circuit that week. 

The remaining tiers (1, 3, 4, 6, and 9) are randomized rewards pulled from the aforementioned curated Reward Pools, which vary per tier.

Here is an overview of what can be found in these Reward Pools:

• Duviri Resources and Endo
• Mods (from Serration, to Corrosive Projection, to Burning Wasp, to Patagium and much much more)
• Rare Mods – Tier 4 and 6 Only (from Continuity, to Argon Scope, to Iron Phoenix, and more)
• Mastery Rank 2 Weapon Blueprints
• Common Warframe Arcanes
• 10,000 and 50,000 Credit Caches

Normal Circuit Rewards past Tier 10
Should you continue to play the Circuit after completing your main Reward Track for the week, you can unlock further Tiers, with a chance of receiving either 1,500 Credits or 250 Endo per Tier. 

A full overview of Circuit Reward Tier drop tables can be found on the official Drop Tables website, under the name “Duviri Endless”. 

These are offered as additional rewards for those who continue to play the Circuit because they find it engaging, but are not designed to be incentives to continue in this gamemode after you’ve finished your Reward Track for the week. 

Steel Path Circuit
Your journey in the Steel Path Circuit will be towards earning new Incarnon Genesis Adapters that can be installed across a variety of Weapons. The first time you enter the Steel Path Circuit each week (following the weekly reset on Sundays at 00:00 UTC), you will be prompted to select two Incarnon Genesis from a pool of five choices. 

 

Be mindful of the order you select them in, as this will decide what tier they are available at in your Reward Path. Your first choice will be unlocked at Tier 5, and your second choice at Tier 10. This order is reflected in the Tier icons above your selections. 

You can deselect and re-select Incarnons to get them in the order you wish. Once you’re satisfied, you can confirm your selections and they will be locked in for the week. 

Thirty total Incarnon Genesis can be acquired from the Steel Path Circuit at launch. Five of these will be available to choose from each week on a rotating schedule. Earning these Incarnon Genesis does not require you owning the actual Weapon — we’ll cover the installment process in the “Incarnon Genesis” section further down. 

Steel Path Circuit – Incarnon Genesis Schedule

• Week 1: Braton, Lato, Skana, Paris, Kunai
• Week 2: Bo, Latron, Furis, Furax, Strun
• Week 3: Lex, Magistar, Boltor, Bronco, Ceramic Dagger
• Week 4: Torid, Dual Toxocyst, Dual Ichor, Miter, Atomos
• Week 5: Ack & Brunt, Soma, Vasto, Nami Solo, Burston
• Week 6: Zylok, Sibear, Dread, Despair, Hate

Once Week 6 passes, the schedule repeats. 

With your reward path selected, you’ll be provided with a full view of your reward tiers for the week. Each Stage you complete will contribute Circuit Progress towards your Reward Tiers in the Circuit. The items in your Reward Path include your selected Incarnon Genesis, Steel Essence, and an assortment of other items pulled from curated Reward Pools. 
 

Steel Path Circuit Reward Tiers
There are 10 Tiers a player must progress through to earn both Incarnon Genesis, with guaranteed items at certain Tiers each week:

• Tier 2 and 8: 1 x Legendary Duviri Arcane (Arcane Reaper, Secondary Shiver, or Longbow Sharpshot)
• Tier 5: First Incarnon Genesis Selected
• Tier 9: 25 x Steel Essence
• Tier 10: Second Incarnon Genesis Selected

The remaining tiers are randomized rewards pulled from the aforementioned curated Reward Pools, which vary per tier.

Here is an overview of what can be found in these Reward Pools:

• New Duviri Arcanes 
• Duviri Resources
• 6000 Kuva and 6000 Endo caches
• 3x Riven Slivers
• Exilus Adapter and Regular Forma Blueprints
• Riven Mods
• 3-Day Boosters

NOTE: Steel Essence is not rewarded for each Stage completed, nor do Acolytes spawn in the Circuit, which is why you see those rewards reflected in the Reward Pool instead! 

Steel Path Circuit Rewards past Tier 10
Should you continue to play the Circuit after completing your main Reward Track for the week, you can unlock further Tiers pulled from a separate Reward Pool of Duviri Arcanes (excluding the three Legendary Arcanes), Endo, and Credits.

A full overview of Circuit Reward Tier drop tables can be found on the official Drop Tables website, under the name “Duviri Endless” (Tiers marked as “Hard”). 
 

These are offered as additional rewards for those who continue to play the Circuit because they find it engaging, but are not designed to be incentives to continue in this gamemode after you’ve finished your Reward Track for the week. 

Other Rewards available in the Circuit:
Outside of what you earn in your Circuit Tiers, players also earn the following rewards in the Circuit:

• Rune Marrow (exclusively found in the Undercroft)
• Cryotic (from Excavators if you come across that game mode)
• Duviri Resources rewarded upon Stage Completion and collection of 3 Decree Fragments
• Drifter Intrinsics rewarded upon Stage Completion (4) and collection of Decree Fragments (3)

Players will also earn Affinity on owned Warframes and Weapons that are equipped in the Circuit, in addition to Focus from equipped Lenses and killed Thrax foes (upon completion of The Second Dream Quest). 
 

Earning Circuit Progress to Unlock Tiers 
With every Stage you complete in the Circuit, you will earn Circuit Progress, which will be reflected both in your Mission Progress screen and in your Stage Completion Screen. The more Stages you complete consecutively in the Circuit, the more Circuit Progress you will earn. 

 

If you fail or leave The Circuit, you lose the Circuit Progress you earned for that round. 

This value increases from 100 Circuit Progress from your first Stage completed, up to a maximum of 170 on Stage 5. 

• Stage 1: 100 Circuit Progress 
• Stage 2: 110 Circuit Progress 
• Stage 3: 125 Circuit Progress 
• Stage 4: 145 Circuit Progress 
  • PLUS one-time daily bonus of 50 Circuit Progress for reaching Stage 4
• Stage 5 and onwards: 170 Circuit Progress

As mentioned in the list above, players will also receive a one-time daily bonus of 50 Circuit Progress for completing Stage 4. This can only be earned once per day and eligibility resets daily at 17:00 UTC (or 16:00 UTC during Daylight Savings Time).  

Steel Path Stages will contribute the same amount of Circuit Progress as the Normal Path, but will require higher amounts of Circuit Progress per Tier to reflect the higher difficulty — and better rewards!

INCARNON GENESIS 
(Plural: Incarnon Geneses) 

Adopt the power of the Incarnon onto your Arsenal with the new Incarnon Genesis! Incarnon Genesis is a new way to bring some life back into long-beloved, if sometimes-forgotten, weapons found in Warframe. If you are familiar with Incarnon Weapons from the Zariman, this system is similar — but instead of the Incarnon status being imbued in the weapon, one must install an Incarnon Genesis to unlock it!

How to Access Incarnon Genesis: 

• Complete the Angels of the Zariman Quest to gain access to Cavalero in the Chrysalith. 
• Complete all nodes in the Star Chart to access the Steel Path
• Complete the Duviri Paradox Quest to access The Circuit on the Steel Path

In this update, the following weapons (including all of their variants, such as MK-1, Vandal, Prime, etc.) are eligible to be upgraded with Incarnon Genesis. We are planning on adding more eligible weapons in the future! 
 

Primary: 
Braton
Paris
Latron
Strun
Dread
Burston
Miter
Torid
Boltor 
Soma

Secondary: 
Despair
Lato
Zylok
Kunai
Furis
Vasto
Atomos
Dual Toxocyst 
Bronco
Lex

Melee: 
Skana
Hate
Sibear
Bo
Furax
Nami Solo
Ack & Brunt 
Dual Ichor 
Ceramic Dagger
Magistar 
 

Acquisition
Incarnon Geneses are acquired via the Steel Path Circuit Rewards. Players have the choice of 2 Incarnon Geneses from a list of 5 each week, which are then obtained by earning enough Circuit Progress to access the Reward Tier. For full details on acquisition, visit the “Steel Path Circuit” section above.

Once you have unlocked your Incarnon Genesis Tier, the item will be delivered to your inventory for you to install in your weapon variant of choice!

Installation 
Installing an Incarnon Genesis requires a trip to Cavalero in the Chrysalith on the Zariman! Before you head there, there are a few things you require: 

1. The Incarnon Genesis itself!
See above for acquisition. 

2. A Compatible Weapon 
You can easily tell the weapon compatibility in your Arsenal — look for a special description added to it when equipped. 

3. The Necessary Resources
A resource investment is needed to properly perform Incarnon Genesis. Each Incarnon requires 20x Pathos Clamps and a variety of Duviri Resources to be installed. 

Once everything is in-hand, head over to Cavalero and access the “Evolve Incarnon Weapons” menu to perform Genesis. 

Similar to other Incarnon weapons, you will have to complete certain challenges with the weapons equipped to unlock further evolutions!

BISHAMO HAWK & LARK OPERATOR SET 

The Bishamo Operator Set has been re-named and re-introduced as the Bishamo Hawk Set & the Bishamo Lark Set. This Dax armor has been fully decoupled from the Male and Female specific variants, and all pieces can now be swapped interchangeably on both Male and Female Operators, as well as Male and Female Drifters. 

To obtain the Bishamo Hawk and Lark sets, you simply need to purchase any Bishamo Armor Set Blueprint from Teshin’s wares in the Relay and craft the armor piece as usual. On claiming the built item from the foundry, it will grant you the entire set (all 4 pieces of Bishamo Armor) for that piece. 
Ie. Craft the Bishamo Greaves Set Blueprint to earn:

• Bishamo Hawk Greaves (Operator) 
• Bishamo Hawk Greaves (Drifter) 
• Bishamo Lark Greaves (Operator)
• Bishamo Lark Greaves (Drifter) 

For those of you who have already crafted any piece of the Hawk Bishamo Operator set (formerly the Bishamo Operator Set*), we will be running an account update shortly after the launch of Duviri to grant you the Bishamo Lark set on log-in, as well as the respective Drifter armor pieces for both the Hawk and Lark Bishamo Operator Armor pieces. 

We have also decoupled the Skirt sash from the (formerly Female) Lark Bishamo Greaves, and added it as the Lark Bishamo Apparel. On crafting the Bishamo Cuirass Set Blueprint, it will also grant the Lark Bishamo Apparel. 

 

*The former Bishamo Operator set was renamed to the Hawk Bishamo Set in anticipation of this change. However, now that this change is live, the Hawk Bishamo Set refers to the Armor formerly styled to the Male Operator, and the Lark Bishamo Set refers to Armor formerly styled to the Female Operator.  
 

NEW SOUND AMBIENCE SYSTEM 

Duviri has brought with it a new sound ambience system, which allows us many ways to enhance the audio experience:

• We can now change ambience on the fly (e.g. changing Spirals in Duviri). 
• Greater precision with ambience in indoor areas (e.g. caves and buildings). 
• More flexibility with the music in volumes, which allows us to change music in different zones of an Open Landscape map (e.g. Undercroft and caves). 
• Overall greater ambience quality and detail due to improved workflow!

We also fixed Quest cinematics not respecting the player’s selected volume settings. Now, the master volume slider applies to both voice and FX tracks. Also fixed issues of music suddenly stopping in-game while fading out. It will now loop properly with the volume adjusted. 

 

ADDITIONS 

• Added a new Accessibility “Prefer Default HUD as Drifter” option. Toggling this on will restore the Drifter HUD in Duviri to its non-stylized version. 
• Added an “Enable Surveys” toggle. Access it in the “Social” Options under “Privacy”. This toggle will also be available on the Survey screen itself, should you wish to no longer receive them. 
  • Players will occasionally be offered Surveys to gather player feedback and insight. This new toggle will allow players to opt out and/or opt back in to Surveys at their own discretion. 
• On viewing an item in your Foundry, you can now hover over any crafting resource to determine their drop location. 
• The Greedy Milk, Hang Tenno, and Puppeteer K-Drive Scrawls are available in the Dojo Bash Lab Research. 
  • These were previously only available in a 6th year anniversary Twitch Drop campaign – so we’ve made them accessible again via the Bash Lab to earn!

 

CHANGES

• Changed the Synth Charge Mod to now apply to the following weapons:
  • Sepulcrum
    • The damage bonus for Synth Charge does not apply to its alt-fire, as it uses the entire magazine in one shot. 
  • Pyrana
  • Pyrana Prime
  • Kuva Brakk
  • Zakti Prime 
  • Tenet Detron 
• Changed the Shawzin default controller bindings – the previous bindings made it considerably harder to use Shawzin compared to keyboard. If you wish to change them back to their previous state, you can do so in the “Customize Controller” option: 
  • Sky Fret: Left D-Pad (was R) 
  • Water Fret: Right D-Pad (was ZR)
  • Earth Fret: Down D-Pad (was L) 
  • Songs: R2 (was Up D-Pad)
  • Change Instrument: R3 (was Left D-Pad)
• Changed how Dormizone invites interact with Squads: 
  • Inviting Tenno to your squad while in the Dormizone no longer forces Clients to load into the Host’s Dormizone. Instead, they can now accept a squad invite from where they are without needing to migrate over. In the chance that someone does want to join someone else’s Dormizone to show off their lavish decorating, they can do so by selecting the new option “Invite to Dormizone”. 
  • Added a prompt to invite all squad members if you’d like to exit the Dormizone into the Crysalith if desired. 
  • Fixed being unable to accept invites from your Dormizone.
• Made the following changes to Mirage’s Sleight of Hand with the Explosive Legerdemain Augment Mod in order to solve major performance issues that would occur when rapidly casting Sleight of Hand with the Augment Mod equipped while Hall of Mirrors was active:
  • Explosion radius is no longer affected by Mods. It is now always 15m. 
  • Proximity mine triggers no longer replicate to Clients (this was a particularly brutal performance issue origin for Clients in squads where the Host was casting Sleight of Hands with Hall of Mirrors often). 
  • Proximity mines now have a 20 second lifespan unless it is attracting an enemy, in which case it is paused. Only one mine can attract a particular enemy at a time.
    • The lifespan previously used to be extended if an enemy entered its trigger range, but if they never reached the explosion (e.g. something else killed them first) the lifespan could be extended indefinitely, causing strain on performance when stacking mines with multiple Sleight of Hand casts. 
  • Optimized the proximity mines when cast in the dark. 
  • Optimized the proximity mine triggers when there are multiple placed with Hall of Mirrors. Now there will be one trigger per group of mines, since they are close enough to one another. The trigger will swap to a new mine if the latter is destroyed. 
  • Also fixed flickering on her shaders. 
• In addition to the 50% of Affinity gained being granted to Warframe, the remaining 50% while using the Parazon is now distributed to the weapon you had equipped before the Parazon Mercy kill started.   
• Updated all Warframe descriptions! 
  • Since this will be the first time many players encounter the Warframes (via Teshin’s Cave), we updated their descriptions to provide practical explanations of playstyles (without sacrificing the lore tidbits). 
• The following weapons can now be found in their corresponding categories in the Arsenal when searching using the tag “Battery”:
  • Basmu
  • Bubonico
  • Tenet Cycron
  • Cycron
  • Flux Rifle 
  • Fulmin
  • Tenet Plinx
  • Plinx
  • Shedu
• Changed Incarnon Weapons’ “DAMAGE” stat to “Incarnon Form” when viewing the Incarnon Form damage values in the Arsenal.  
• Added Mission Tips to the Risk Investment selection screen for The Index.
• Updated the Drifter mini-map icon.
• Made slight adjustments to the rendering of Caliban’s Cranion Helmet to be more accurate for reflections.  
• Made some adjustments to lighting in the Cetus Temple during the Vor’s Prize quest. 
• Updated the rendering for the water FX on the Grav Lifter Factory decoration. 
• Updated “The Hunt is On” Nightwave Act description to say “Pick up Syndicate Medallions” instead of “Find” as it requires you to interact with them in order for it to count towards the Act. 
• Updated the on-hover Credits and Platinum icon descriptions to be more informative on what each currency is used for. 

OPTIMIZATIONS

• Made several micro-optimizations to base game code.
• Made a micro-optimization to loading times and streaming.
• Made several optimizations related to code responsible for HUD processing. 
• Made a micro-optimization to memory footprint in several levels. 
• Made several micro-optimizations related to script performance. 
• Made improvements to how animation data is stored. 
• Made an optimization related to level loading.

• Optimized a few seconds off of loading large levels.
• Made some connectivity optimizations.
• Made small optimizations to Liset mesh data. 
• Fixed enemies selectively ignoring Mirage’s Sleight of Hand depending on the mission type. (For example enemies would get distracted by your traps in Extermination but not Survival)
• Fixed loading hitches when swapping default customizations between Male and Female Operator. 
• Fixed the game becoming unresponsive when:
  • Selecting a color picker or an item from the in-game Market selection screen while in Railjack customization.

NINTENDO SWITCH SPECIFIC NOTES: 

• Fixed the Mesa Kudegra Helmet not remaining equipped after exiting the helmet selection menu. 
• Fixed being unable to chat-link Nightwatch Napalm. 
  • Some of our in-game items were being picked up by in-game profanity filters, so this is a change that was made so that players can freely chat-link items. As a fallout of this change, the option ‘Enable Profanity Filter’ now properly works on Switch.
• Fixed shaders on Nintendo Switch at times being incorrectly converted, causing lighting issues on skin and cloth rendering.
• Made optimizations towards level loading. 
   

FIXES 

• Fixed the following issues from the Citrine’s Last Wish “Known Issues” list:
  • Fixed primary target not receiving any bonus Status Effects from the Secondary Encumber Arcane while using a chaining weapon (i.e. Atomos). 
  • Fixed the Secondary Encumber Arcane unintentionally counting staggering as a Status Effect, leading to many unintended Effects being applied.
    • This Arcane is intended to trigger only from Physical and Elemental Status Effects i.e. Status types which show on an enemy’s health bar.
  • Fixed many mods that previously worked on Exalted Weapons not correctly applying, for example (but not exclusively) Internal Bleeding and Hunter Munitions when installed on Ivara’s Artemis Bow, or Life Strike not working when installed on Exalted Melee Weapons. Valkyr’s Hysteria not having life steal was in the same category.

  • Fixed Battacor requiring all 3 charges to use its alt fire instead of the intended 1 or 2 charges to scale the damage.

    • This also fixes the Propa Scaffold Amp part bypassing Electric Shield and Guardian Shell, causing the Operator to self-stagger. 
• Fixed mouse sensitivity being tied to controller sensitivity settings instead of mouse and keyboard sensitivity settings.
  Fixed Arcane Steadfast not working consistently on ability casts when equipped on Vauban. 
• Fixed Garuda being unable to perform Melee Finishers with her Talons in missions that disable Melee weapons.
• Fixed major performance issues occurring when rapidly casting Mirage’s Sleight of Hand with the Explosive Legerdemain Augment Mod equipped while Hall of Mirrors is active. In order to solve the performance issues, the following changes were made to Explosive Legerdemain: 
• Explosion radius is no longer affected by Mods. It is now always 15m. 
• Optimized the proximity mines when cast in the dark. 
• Optimized the proximity mine triggers when there are multiple placed with Hall of Mirrors. Now there will be one trigger per group of mines, since they are close enough to one another. The trigger will swap to a new mine if the latter is destroyed. 
• Proximity mine triggers no longer replicate to Clients (this was a particularly brutal performance issue origin for Clients in squads where the Host was casting Sleight of Hands with Hall of Mirrors often). 
• Proximity mines now have a 20 second lifespan unless it is attracting an enemy, in which case it is paused. Only one mine can attract a particular enemy at a time.
• The lifespan previously used to be extended if an enemy entered its trigger range, but if they never reached the explosion (e.g. something else killed them first) the lifespan could be extended indefinitely, causing strain on performance when stacking mines with multiple Sleight of Hand casts. 
• Also fixed flickering on her shaders. 
• Fixed certain bosses being permanently stun locked by the Proboscis Cernos stun effect.
• Fixed exposing an enemy to a Viral Status Effect just as the last Viral Status Effect on the enemy is about to expire, and while there is a Heat Status Effect on the enemy, can lead to the enemy becoming invincible.
• Fixed only firing the Staticor with one hand as opposed to the intentional two hands.
• Fixed Nataruk bow shots, which are charged to the end of the sweet spot, are shot as uncharged shots.

• Fixed K-Drive randomly doing a spin instead of the tricks you’re trying to do.
• Fixed Ash’s Shuriken losing all punch through.

• Fixed issue with Mirror Defence rotations getting skipped after Host Migration. 
• Fixed Innodem and Prasedos losing their Incarnon Form after entering Arsenal in the Simulacrum.
