Warframe – Ver. 36.0.8

  • Release date: July 25th 2024 (North America, Europe) / June 26th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

Cross Platform Save Changes:
Last month we added a change to Cross Platform Save which affected purchased items on Linked Accounts. Players reported to us that in rare situations, some of the intended items were not being transferred as we said they should be. We have narrowed down the cause of this and included a fix for all future Account Links in this Hotfix. We will be running a script to fix this for any affected players soon and will update the original post once it is completed.

New Player Experience Changes: 

  • Moved The Duviri Paradox Quest as a reward for completing Vor’s Prize to the Saturn to Uranus Junction. 
    • As we continue to add to our Main Story path with Warframe 1999, our team is focused on improving the New Player Experience and removing points of confusion in a player’s journey. We added Duviri in 2023 as an alternative tutorial for players — after reviewing player behavior, it was moved behind Vor’s Prize in Echoes of Duviri. With more player feedback under our belts, we have made the decision to move player access to this story behind the Uranus Junction. As a team, we’re dedicated to experimenting and expanding Warframe’s weirdness, but player experience is king above all else! 
    • If you had already unlocked this Quest prior to this Hotfix (i.e. completed Vor’s Prize), you will still have access to it regardless of your Junction completion.
  • Made improvements to the Saya’s Vigil Quest to help address moments where players would get confused or be uncertain how to proceed. 
    • Added waypoint markers to the Glass Shards in the Plains of Eidolon to help players more easily find and scan them. 
    • Improved waypoint placement and increased the opacity of the glass window upon approaching the Vault to make the path to the Shard clearer to players in the Hek’s Galleon mission. 
    • Updated various Objective descriptions to better explain expected player actions and added a waypoint to the Elevator into the Vault in the Hek’s Galleon mission.

Changes: 

  • Jade Light Eximus will now no longer ramp up their damage against Defense Targets, Excavators, Rescue Targets, etc. 
    • They will now deal a flat 100 damage per tick. 
  • Players who have sealed 100+ Thermia Fractures will now see “ALL REWARDS COLLECTED” instead of the list of reward tiers for the Thermia Fractures event in their World State Window. 
    • This change removes unnecessary clutter from this screen, making room for more relevant information to be displayed at the front of the Orbiter!
  • Changed AX-52’s Critical Chance headshot mechanic to Stacked Multiply instead of Add when applying the Critical Chance buff.  
    • This addresses unintended interactions with Abilities such as Xata’s Whisper. 
    • Also updated the Unique Trait description to better communicate the end result of this Critical Chance headshot mechanic. The buff effectiveness has actually increased very slightly, but players should expect similar results overall.
      • Was: Aimed Headshots have +100% Critical Chance.
      • Now: Aimed Headshots have +400% Critical Chance.

Fixes:

  • Fixed Melee Incarnons not displaying Incarnon charging UI for Clients with Melee Retaliation equipped.
  • Fixed being unable to see a Clan Applicant’s message when requesting to join a Clan via the Clan Advertisement system.
  • Fixed entering Bleedout (instead of the intended Spectral form) with Dagath’s Grave Spirit active if the fatal blow dealt Blast damage. 
  • Fixed the Fluctus not benefiting from the “Fire Manual Trigger Weapons Continuously” toggle in the Accessibility settings. 
  • Fixed one of Ember Heirloom’s sleeves appearing darker than the other. 
  • Fixed Archons in Archon Hunts not using their proper Narmer Weaknesses/Resistances. 
    • As a refresher, here are the Narmer vulnerabilities/resistances: 
      • Vulnerable to Slash and Toxin
      • Resistant to Magnetic
    • The Archons in The New War Quest remain neutral since you don’t know what the “Narmer” faction is until the near end of the Quest, and therefore wouldn’t be able to plan for them given that you are locked into the Quest once started. 
  • Fixed an issue where Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance could collide with and get stuck on Guardian Shell. 
  • Fixed the Arcane Boiler not spawning in the “Arcane Machine” mission of the Stolen Dreams Quest as reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1406669-arcane-boiler-doesnt-spawn-at-the-end-of-stolen-dreams/ 
  • Fixed Nikanas equipped with Blind Justice not being able to do default Finishers. 
  • Fixed cursor in the Duviri Hacking Puzzle being positioned slightly below the line instead of directly on it as intended. 
  • Fixed rare chance that Clients experience performance issues caused by the Ghost Mirror objective in Duviri. 
  • Fixed Jade firing from her feet in Glory on High if players had subsumed over Ophanim Eyes.
  • Fixed Maggot diorama in Codex missing its textures. 
  • Fixed Railjack enemy outlines being misaligned with custom HUD scaling. 
  • Fixed a small hitch when selecting the Zephyr Harrier Collection in the Market. 
  • Fixed Loid’s hair being too dark in the Sanctum Anatomica.
  • Fixed Dominus Thrax’s head in the Duviri skybox not updating to reflect the current Spiral for clients. 
  • Fixed Dog Days enemies being unable to target players if they stand on a certain section of the tile.
  • Fixed enemies clipping into the wall when hiding beside a certain locker in the Grineer Galleon tileset. 
  • Fixed unintended popping sound when reloading the Corinth Prime. 
  • Fixed various map holes in the Grineer Galleon Defense tile.
  • Fixed being able to see through the map in a section of the Orb Vallis.
  • Fixed performance issues caused by Energy Leech Eximus. 
  • Fixed script errors caused by Look and Mod Link.
  • Fixed script error caused by the Mod preview window. 

Warframe – Ver. 36.0.7

  • Release date: July 22nd 2024 (North America, Europe) / June 23rd 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

DOG DAYS RETURNS ON ALL PLATFORMS (SOON)

 

Dog Days is returning today! It’ll be going live shortly after this Hotfix, we just need to make sure everything is clear post-Hotfix before turning it on.

Take a stand on the sand and get your Soaktron ready to rumble… Dog Days is back for another seasonal seaside slobberknocker! Kela De Thaym has the beach arena primed for mayhem, so grab your inner tube and let the Lob Blobs fly.

Complete four limited-time Tactical Alerts to earn new Rewards, Credits and Nakak Pearls that you can use to trade for items in Nakak’s exclusive Dog Days offerings, found in her Beach Toys stock on Cetus.

This iteration of Dog Days also features Nakak Pearl awards for Assists – read on for more details!

NEW REWARDS

In addition to returning favorites, like Captura Scenes and the Soaktron Rifle Skin, new rewards have arrived with a splash!

 

 

Hellshell Domestik Drone

A new Domestik Drone is also available to earn from Mission 4 of the Tactical Alerts, ready to give your dirty Orbiter floors Hell!

Community Dog Days Glyphs

These Glyphs featuring Grendel, Lavos, Voruna, and Yareli were created by community artist CheruuAx!

Dropkick Drahk Sigil and Emblem

You know what The Drahk is cooking.

 

HOW TO PLAY

From Navigation, select the Dog Days Tactical Alert missions under the Event tab to be transported to a tropical arena that shifts from day to night. The Dog Day’s arena is a water munitions-only zone, which means there are no Mods, Buffs (Invigorations and Archon shards), Companions, or Abilities. Winning a match comes down to who can drench the opposing team the most (Tenno vs. Grineer) before the timer runs out.

If your Soaktron runs out of water you can refill it by passing through water refill stations dotted around the map. Another thing you will find at some of these stations are Lob Blobs!

Nakak Pearl Rebalancing and Rewards from Assists

The only thing that grinds Tenno gears more than Executioner Garesh are kill steals in Dog Days. Those woes are hopefully a thing of the past with these new Nakak Pearl Rebalancing changes.

These changes apply specifically to Mission 4 of Dog Days:

  • All Kills now reward 2 Nakak Pearls. 
  • Players who helped kill an enemy (but didn’t strike the final blow) will now earn 1 Nakak Pearl per Assist

To balance out the increased number of Pearls from Kills and Assists, Mission 4’s rewards have been reduced from 50 to 30 Nakak Pearls. (note: this does not apply to the first-time completion reward of 100 Pearls for Mission 4).

The overall change results in more Nakak Pearls for active players, and hopefully increased Nakak Pearls acquisition as a whole!

Tactical Alerts

Each Tactical Alert mission rewards the following once completed. We have also increased the amount of Nakak Pearls earned per mission compared to previous appearances!

  • Mission 1: Suplex Kubrow Glyph + 50,000 Credits + 25 Nakak Pearls 
  • Mission 2: Dog Days War Display + 50,000 Credits + 50 Nakak Pearls 
  • Mission 3: Dropkick Drahk Emblem + 50,000 Credits + 75 Nakak Pearls 
  • Mission 4*: Hellshell Domestik Drone + 50,000 Credits + 100 Nakak Pearls

*Replaying Mission 4 earns you Nakak Pearls for each enemy you soak to smithereens, and now also for assists.

Nakak Pearls can be exchanged at Nakak in Cetus for extra Rewards, including Floofs, Captura Scenes, and more.

NAKAK’S BEACH TOYS

Visit Nakak in Cetus, Earth and select the “Beach Toys” option to view all she has to offer to trade for your hard earned Nakak Pearls!

New:

  • Dropkick Drahk Sigil
  • Community Dog Days Grendel Glyph
  • Community Dog Days Lavos Glyph
  • Community Dog Days Voruna Glyph
  • Community Dog Days Yareli Glyph
  • Ride The Wave Glyph
  • Ride The Wave Poster 
  • Noggle Statue – Yareli and Merulina

A new “Seasonal” tab in the in-game Market has also arrived, which features Dog Days items available for purchase! This tab will appear in the future whenever Seasonal items become available. 

Keep those dogs cool and rock’em soak’em, Tenno!!

CHANGES

  • Lowered the default height position of the Ember Heirloom Signa. 
    • We received feedback that it was sitting too high above your Warframes, so we’ve moved it down to give you more flexibility using the Y Offset slider.

  • Release date: July 20th 2024 (North America, Europe) / June 21st 2024 (Japan)

Warframe – Ver. 36.0.5

  • Release date: July 20th 2024 (North America, Europe) / June 21st 2024 (Japan)

CHANGES

New Player Experience Improvements: 

  • Upon completing the Vor’s Prize Quest players will now receive an Inbox message with the Burston Blueprint and the resources required to craft it (with the exception of Ferrite which players will be able to acquire in the early Planet missions). 
    • The goal here is to encourage and familiarize players with crafting in the Foundry, as it is an important part of your journey through Warframe (with the added bonus of a free weapon of course!).  
  • Made several improvements to the flow and various movement tutorials in the Awakening Quest to reinforce intended behavior.
    • Ex: The wall run tutorial of the Awakening Quest now has a ghost Excalibur that shows players where to go. 
  • Removed Kubrow spawns in Awakening Quest, so as to not distract the Grineer from their main target: the Tenno Skoom!
  • Added “Saya’s Vigil” in parentheses to Konzu’s “A Personal Favor” option to better indicate that that’s how you start the Quest. 
  • Added popup when opening the in-game Market for the first time to introduce new players to it. 
    • It reads: “Welcome to the Market! Here, you can buy items using Credits earned in missions or Platinum obtained through purchases. Use Credits to acquire Blueprints and craft items in your Foundry, or gain instant access with Platinum. Hover over Build requirements on an item’s Market page to learn how to acquire it through gameplay.” 

General: 

  • Helminth Coalescent and Helminth Invigoration Segments can no longer be built in the Foundry without the Helminth Segment installed in your Orbiter. 
    • As these Segments cannot be used without the Helminth unlocked, it is only confusing to players if they build it beforehand.
  • Re-enabled  the “Change Loadout” controller input in  the Navigation menu.
    • This input automatically drags the virtual cursor to the new Arsenal UI Element  where you can customize your loadout to your  heart’s content!
  • Scans for the Shadow Stalker and Protector Stalker will now count as scans for his previously-unlocked variants, if not already fully scanned.
    • Ex: Scans for the Protector Stalker will now also contribute scans for Stalker and Shadow Stalker, if they are not already fully scanned.
    • This addresses players having issues earning scans for earlier-game Stalker variants as they progress through the Main Story. 
  • Updated the Jade, Cantare, Harmony, and Evensong location descriptions to indicate that Ordis is found in the Drifter Camp now that Operation: Belly of the Beast has concluded.
  • Added Unique Trait descriptions to the Quatz and the Catabolyst to their Upgrade screens. 
    • Quatz: “Uses Auto firing when hip-firing, and Burst firing mode when aiming. Reloading from empty deals an Electricity Status Effect to nearby enemies.” 
    • Catabolyst: “Throws a Corrosive grenade when reloading. Reloading from an empty magazine throws a larger grenade with increased Damage, Critical Chance and Status Chance.” 
  • Adjusted Jade’s Glory on High SFX as follows:
    • Reduced the volume of the chorus SFX while Jade is in motion. The chorus sound also no longer plays while Jade is stationary.
    • Players will no longer hear the Glory on High chorus SFX from Jades in their squad. 
  • Changed Shivering Contagion’s Cold Status spread chance scaling with Mod Ranks, up to 100% at Rank 5. 
    • Shivering Contagion was intended to give 5% per mod rank, reaching 30% chance at max rank. However, it was erroneously giving 50% per rank, reaching the maximum possible effect of 100% at Rank 1. Instead of reverting the mod to its original intended values, we have made it so that it can still reach 100% chance, but now requires the mod to be at max rank to get this guaranteed benefit. Here’s exactly what’s changed stats wise:
      • Previous intended spread chance per rank: 5/10/15/20/25/30
      • Bugged/Unintentional spread chance per rank (as explained above): 50/100/100/100/100
      • New spread chance per rank: 17/33/50/67/84/100 
    • Updated its description to make it clearer that it activates when the Cold Status Effect is applied. 
      • Now reads: “On Cold Status Effect: 100% chance to spread that status to other enemies within 6m”.
  • Made visual updates to Corpus control booth structures. 

FIXES

Nintendo Switch Specific Notes: 

  • Fixed the Atlas Monolith Helmet not being available on Switch. 

Ascension Fixes:

  • Fixes towards projectiles phasing through the Ascension elevator while it’s in motion.
  • Fixed Boosted Ionic Charges incorrectly giving 20s of boost time if the elevator was not boosted. 
    • Now all Boosted Ionic Charges grant 10s of increased speed, up to the cap of 50s for stacked charges.
  • Fixed the Sister Beacon side objective UI disappearing after a Host Migration. 
  • Fixed Capsule not locking into elevator if Host migration occurs just before it docks – causing the mission to come to a halt. 
  • Fixed remaining Sister Beacons not depawning after collecting the required 3. 
  • Fixed a crash related to the first stage of Ascension missions. 
  • Fixed a crash in Ascension missions. 

General Fixes:

  • Fixed Jade Light Eximus targeting players with their Jade Light ability before they had been engaged in combat. 
  • Fixed Shockprod and Stunna fishing spears causing a loss of function.
    • With this fix we re-added the ability to aim-down-sights for all fishing spears. As a refresher, this was removed as a workaround for the Shockprod and Stunna function loss. 
    • Also fixed Melee attacking while Fishing clearing the custom fishing menu (i.e. baits, etc.). 
  • Fixed Mag’s “Greedy Pull” not collecting pickups (ex: Endo). 
    • With this fix, we have restored Greedy Pull’s LoS check back to render. In Hotfix 36.0.3, we had reverted it back temporarily to raycast to allow the ability to still pull pickups instead of not at all since the full fix required Code (which is in this Hotfix!).
  • Fixed cases of Melee Heavy Attack input not registering. 
    • Also added the ability for Tennokai attacks to interrupt “not quite started” quick attacks. 
  • Fixed Hildryn being unable to cast Ember’s Fire Blast Helminth ability. 
  • Fixed Dagath’s Rakhali’s Cavalry not requiring enemies to be afflicted with Doom in order to apply armor strip.
  • Fixed throwing the Ebisu Spear at a fallen Gravid Blastema resulting in loss of function. 
  • Fixed Overguard preventing players from parrying. 
  • Fixed Melee-based foes no longer attacking while in Frost’s Snow Globe. 
  • Fixed Wisp being unable to teleport to her Reservoirs after entering an Open Landscape mission from its respective town (ex: the Plains of Eidolon accessed via Cetus). 
  • Fixed being able to equip both the Primed Deadly Efficiency and Deadly Efficiency Mods at the same time. 
    • However, with this fix, you will now be able to equip Parallax Scope with Deadly Efficiency. 
  • Fixes towards the Plasma Torch and regular shots dealing less damage than intended to the Narmer Scyto Raknoid in the Break Narmer “Sneaky Sabotage” mission. 
  • Fixed new player accounts having the incorrect default HUD scale. 
  • Fixed dying in the Undercroft resulting in the player having extra Decrees and Decree Rerolls upon returning to the Duviri landscape.
    • Also fixed cases of Drifters having “Guiding Hand” equipped as a weapon.
  • Fixed equipping the Awlspawn Syandana changing Ember’s default Energy colors. 
  • Fixed Citrine’s Prex Card lying flat on the side in its diorama in Otak’s offerings. 
  • Fixed sub factions not appearing on nodes in the Star Chart that have multiple missions active.  
  • Fixed music overlapping in The Second Dream Quest intro cinematic. 
  • Fixed male Drifters having bright tear ducts. 
  • Fixed projectile-based Archguns being unable to damage Murmur Sarcophages. 
  • Fixed the “Decorate Dormizone” option being available in the Quick Access wheel without owning the Vista Suite Key. 
    • This is because the Quick Access option will take you to the door to enter the Vista Suite, but without the key you are unable to access it. 
  • Fixed various Focus abilities showing the stat name in between |’s instead of the actual value. 
  • Fixed various armor offset issues on the Drifter Vahd Suit. 
  • Fixed offset issues with the Alastorn Leg Plates when equipped on Railjack Crew. 
  • Fixed Cedo’s Alt Fire missing SFX.
  • Fixed Boreal’s Contempt only giving +30% instead of the intended +60% Damage from Status Effects at max rank. 
    • Also updated the description to match the standard of other Status Damage mods. 
  • Fixed Warframes sinking into the floor when using the Arsenal in the Zanuka Arena Simulacrum room. Turns out quicksand is a bigger threat in Warframe than previously thought. 
  • Fixed some in-game text for the Prisoner side objective in Duviri not being translated. 
  • Fixed Protector Stalker having an incorrect icon and diorama in the Codex.
  • Fixed the Tamm’s Fortune Decree missing HUD buff description. 
  • Fixed the Synthel’s Outburst Decree having a PH tag in its HUD buff description. 
  • Fixed a crash caused by Sevagoth’s Sow. 
  • Fixed spotloading in the Simulacrum if the Host changed their Loadout while in a squad. 
  • Fixed cases of enemies jittering in place due to pathing issues.
  • Fixed a rare crash when returning to the Orbiter. 
  • Fixed spot-loading issue with Emotes. 
  • Fixed performance issues in the Orbiter and Relays caused by Jade Shadows content. 
  • Fixed performance issues in the Relays when approaching a player with a Mastery Rank Sigil equipped. 

Code Fixes From Jade Shadows Update:

  • Improved materials of the posters in the 1999 stage of the Whispers in the Walls Quest. 
  • Made optimizations to UI texture streaming. 
  • Fixed Clients receiving self-damage from enemies dying from Blast’s detonation AoE. 
  • Fixed a crash in Orphix Railjack missions. 
  • Fixed 1 000,00 Numeric Separators setting causing asterisks to be used in place of spaces. 
    • This was rather noticeable in the Syndicate Segment panel. 
  • Fixed a crash caused by NPCs attempting to move to player to perform some kind of a context action (ex: Finisher), but no clear path is available to them. 
  • Fixed a crash caused by Finishers. 
  • Fixed a crash caused by Blast Status Effects. 
  • Fixed some rare crashes when hitting Blast’s max stack count on enemies who are liable to become immune to Status Effects on damage.
  • Fixed Stalker’s Landing Craft appearing at Extraction in Ascension missions. 
  • Fixed a crash caused by Finishers. 
  • Fixed a crash caused by Kavat Companion.
  • Fixes towards a connectivity crash. 
  • Fixes towards a crash caused by Blast Damage Status Effect. 

Warframe – Ver. 36.0.4

  • Release date: June 26th 2024 (North America, Europe) / June 27th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

Ascension Changes & Fixes: 

  • Elevator speed boost time from Boosted Ionic Charges now stack when throwing multiple at the Extraction Capsule at once (up to a max of 50 seconds). 
    • The elevator UI has also been updated to indicate the speed boosts and duration. You can now more clearly see how Ionic Charges affect the elevator. 
  • Fixed Ordis’ “Uplift” Bullet Jump distance buff in Ascension missions overriding players’ Parkour upgrades instead of applying additively. 
  • Fixed being able to pick up multiple Ionic Charges in Ascension missions, effectively deleting the one that was already in your hand.  
    • Now these will act like Alchemy Ampoules. You will not be able to pick up Ionic Charges with one already in-hand – unless you are trying to pick up a different type (i.e. normal Ionic Charge vs Boosted Ionic Charge). 
  • Fixed End of Mission screen not showing Arcanes earned from defeating Sisters of Parvos in the special mode available at Ordis. 
    • This was a UI-only issue – the Arcanes were still being properly delivered to inventory. 
  • Fixed Ascension mission not ending once the Capsule reached Extraction due to On Call Crew Specters. 
  • Fixed elevator moving downwards after Host migration. 
  • Fixed Clients not receiving the Jade Prex Card in their inventory after picking it up in the Ascension tile. 
  • Fixed a hole in the upper level of the Ascension tile. 
  • Fixed a script error caused by Sister of Parvos’ Magnetize ability. 
  • Fixed a small floating box near the extraction area in the Ascension tile. 
  • Fixed a rare crash caused by the Ionic Charges. 

Changes: 

  • Drastically reduced VFX from Blast Procs to address performance issues.
    • This is a temporary change in response to reports of crashes and overall performance issues. Unfortunately this does not fix the issue completely, but it should help improve the situation until it can be addressed properly in a Cert update. 
  • You can now replay the Jade Shadows Quest! 
    • We’ve been absolutely loving your reactions to the Quest and wanted you to be able to enjoy it all over again. Go to the Codex > Quests > Select Jade Shadows > Select the “Replay” button. 
    • Friendly reminder of the Spoiler Courtesy when sharing anything regarding the Quest. On that note, replaying the Quest will skip the choice scene at the end (the choice made in the first playthrough is maintained). 
  • Changed Frost’s “Icy Avalanche” Augment Mod (stats shown at Max Rank) to improve its Overguard capacities:
    • Now: Allies within Affinity Range are coated with ice that grants 60 Overguard per enemy hit. Overguard increases by 20% of your Armor once per enemy.
    • Previous: Coat nearby allies with ice that grants Overguard and absorbs 60 damage per enemy hit. 
  • Selecting a sorting option for the Star Chart Loadout UI will carry over to all equipment. 
    • For example, selecting to sort by “Forma Count” in the Warframe selection screen will also apply to Weapons, Companions, etc. 
  • Changed the name of “Bane of Corrupted” Mods to “Bane of Orokin” to match their new faction name that was released with the Resistances and Status Rework in the Jade Shadows update. 
  • Jade’s Prex Card and the Displays earned from the Jade Shadows Quest can now be chat linked.
    • We had these disabled for launch since they were spoilers for the Jade Shadows Quest. Now that we’ve re-enabled it, please be mindful of spoiling the Quest for other players.   
  • When previewing Warframes in the Arsenal they will now play their own Noble Animation set instead of the default set. 
    • If you already have a different animation set selected it will not replace it – but in the case where no animation set has been selected yet, their Noble Animation set will auto-equip upon selecting the Warframe. You can set it back to the default using the new “None” option in the Animation list. 
  • As noted in Hotfix #3, Jade’s Universal Polarity has been restored to its intended slot for players who had swapped it. 
  • Improved the Grimoire’s reticle so that it is more centered and increases the reticle dot to better match other reticles. 
  • Reduced the intensity/noise of the VFX behind Warframe when selecting Energy colors in Arsenal. 
  • Added more SFX to Jade’s Idle animations. 
  • Updated Ember’s Fireball ability preview video to showcase its new version from the Jade Shadow’s update. 
  • Toned down the hit VFX when attacking the top of the Jade Light Eximus beam.
  • The Stalker that appears after completing the Jade Shadows Quest now has his own unique name (similar to Shadow Stalker) “Protector Stalker”. 
    • Fixed post-Jade Shadows Stalker having the incorrect drop tables. This fixes the issue of players being unable to get the War/Broken War Drops from Stalker post-Quest. 
    • Known issue: Post-Jade Shadows Protector Stalker has a missing icon and incorrect diorama in the Codex. This will be fixed in a future Hotfix/Update.

Fixes: 

  • Fixed Ash’s Blade Storm not triggering Arcanes with the “On Finisher Kill” condition (i.g. Arcane Trickery, etc.). 
  • Fixed Client detonated Glaives not damaging enemies if the “Fire Manual Trigger Weapons Continuously” setting is toggled on. 
    • Also fixes Host and Clients not seeing the affected Client’s Glaive Prime being thrown. 
  • Fixed Qorvex’s “Wrecking Wall” Augment triggering (to restart the duration of Chyrinka Pillars) even if no enemies are hit by Containment Wall. 
  • Fixes towards Mag’s “Greedy Pull” not collecting pickups (ex: Endo). 
    • Seeing as we cannot fix this without Code, we have temporarily reverted the Augment’s LoS check from render (which was introduced in Dante Unbound: Hotfix #7) back to raycast. This may result in issues of loot not being Pulled due to slight variances in elevation, but it fixes the issues of pickups being ignored by the Augment. We will return the LoS check back to render in the next Cert update. 
  • Fixed being unable to shoot/regenerate ammo the Tenet Plinx after alt-firing while it is regenerating ammo.  
  • Fixed the subsumed version of Jade’s Ophanim Eyes not actually having the eyes present on cast (this was a visual only bug). 
  • Fixed performance issues caused by Jade’s Ophanim Eyes VFX not despawning. 
  • Fixed Frost’s Snow Globe and Hound’s Null Audit Precept (when stealing Arctic Eximus bubbles) unintentionally doubling weapon Critical Hit Damage when shooting through it. 
  • Fixed Sevagoth’s Sow (with and without the Dark Propagation Augment) not applying to lifted enemies. 
  • Fixed Ordis’ Operation store being available in Drifter Camp after talking to Kahl. 
    • Worth noting that once Operation: Belly of the Beast ends, Ordis will relocate to the Drifter Camp and offer his wares there. 
  • Fixed losing function after opening the Arsenal from the quick access wheel while in the Sanctum Anatomica. 
  • Fixed Hildryn’s Balefire quickfire Attack Speed being increased when the “Fire Manual Trigger Weapons Continuously” setting is toggled on. 
  • Fixed Wukong’s “Monkey Luck” passive buff working on enemies that are immune to loot abilities. 
  • Fixed purchasing something from the “Complete the Look” in the Community Customizations screen removing all other options from the menu. 
  • Fixed being unable to sell Jade from Inventory. 
  • Fixed the order of Kitgun Components not being consistent in the Arsenal description (intended to be ordered top to bottom Chamber, Loader and Grip).

Warframe – Ver. 36.0.3

  • Release date: June 19th 2024 (North America, Europe) / June 20th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

NOTE: For Tenno playing in Japanese (PSA in Japanese
In order for this Hotfix to begin downloading, Warframe’s cache will need to be cleared to remove the unimportant files causing the above issue. Unfortunately in order to do this on Nintendo Switch, you must uninstall and reinstall Warframe. This will not remove your account or account progress! This will simply clear storage that is causing the above issue. 

Nintendo Switch Specific Notes:

  • Fixed the Japanese launcher not downloading latest Hotfixes, causing players to be unable to open the game. 
    • The reason for this issue was caused by the translated launcher patch-notes. To resolve this issue, we have temporarily swapped the patch-notes to English for the time being so that players can get into the game. 

Additions: 

  • Added Wisp Prime’s Theme to Varzia’s Prime Resurgence Offerings for Aya. 

Changes: 

  • Improved the accuracy of Frost’s Freeze projectile when cast within Snow Globe. 
  • Temporarily disabled Aiming Down Sights on fishing spears to prevent a soft-lock issue. 
    • The full fix for this issue requires Code for a future update, so for the time being we have done the above to ensure that players going through Quests with fishing stages are able to complete them without getting stuck. 
  • Removed a certain jump pad in the Ascension mission as it was yeeting players into a pipe along the wall (BONK).

  • Fixed Jade Light Eximus’ light beam attack doing significantly more damage after Hotfix 36.0.2. 
  • Fixed Sevagoth’s “Shadow Haze” Critical Chance not scaling with Ability Strength. 
    • For players that weren’t building around Ability Strength, this made it appear as if even its base 50% Critical Chance wasn’t applying. Now that scaling has been fixed, you can mod to increase that Crit Chance beyond 50%. 
  • Fixed being unable to rank up with the Cavia after earning Standing from Netracell missions when already at max for the current rank.
    • If you were affected by this bug, you should be able to rank up now!

    • We’ll be reverting the moved Universal Polarity back to its intended spot in a future Hotfix.

Warframe – Ver. 36.0 (Jade Shadows)

  • Release date: June 18th 2024 (North America, Europe) / June 19th 2024 (Japan)
  • File size: 1.22GB + 280MB
  • Patch notes:

NINTENDO SWITCH SPECIFIC NOTES: 

  • Improved rendering performance on Nintendo Switch. 
  • Made performance improvements on Nintendo Switch when destroying destructibles.
  • Made several micro-optimizations to skeletal skinning for Nintendo Switch. 
  • Made a micro-optimization to memory on Nintendo Switch. 
  • Fixed visiting large featured Dojos having gradually increasing performance issues on the Nintendo Switch the longer you stay in them. 
  • Fixed a rare audio crash on Nintendo Switch. 
  • Fixes towards sounds sounding fuzzy/distorted on Nintendo Switch. 
  • Note for Switch players in light of the spawn rate change for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S: We have increased spawn limits on these consoles to match PC. What this means is that we’ve increased the amount of enemies that can spawn on these platforms. Switch has not had its spawn rate changed. The Host always determines the spawn limit count, so if you’d prefer to opt out of matchmaking with a higher spawn limit player (for performance reasons), you can disable Cross Platform Play (it can be enabled/disabled in Settings > System > Cross Platform Play) and matchmake with your respective platforms at their lower limits. 
  • Code Fixes From Dante Unbound: 
    • Fixed held items (Datamass, Life Support, etc.) completely blocking the screen when shooting the Grimoire at the same time.  
    • Fixed an extremely rare crash that could occur when joining a mission in progress. 
    • Fixed Red Energy colors appearing pink/magenta across Warframes, Attachments (notably VFX-heavy Syandanas), and Weapons. 
      • Also fixed cases where red, orange, and brown Energy colors looked like they are more yellow. 
    • Fixed black Energy color appearing white (in Orbiter and mission). 
    • Fixed a crash caused by recovering from being knocked down. 
      • This was also causing an issue in Deep Archimedea where your Warframe would seemingly “trip” all over the place before crashing. 
    • Fixed a crash caused by weapon hit direction. 
    • Fixed Secondary ammo pickups in the Simulacrum not charging the Grimoire’s alt-fire. 

NEW CINEMATIC QUEST: JADE SHADOWS

Struggling to understand the oldest and deepest secret from his past, Stalker finds himself allied with sworn enemies on the troubling road toward uncovering the truth… and averting an incalculable loss.  

Spoiler Courtesy

Jade Shadows contains significant spoilers for Warframe! To ensure that all Tenno enjoy the best possible experience, we ask that you allow others to complete the Quest at their own pace, and to please be kind by avoiding spoiling it for others. 

If you’d like to discuss or share anything related to the Quest after playing (and we certainly expect that you will), please use spoiler tags so everyone can experience it as intended. 

  • Content Creators should clearly label spoiler content and use spoiler-free thumbnails and titles.

Quest Prerequisites 

You must have completed The New War Quest in order to play the Jade Shadows Quest. The Quest will become available from your Codex once you have done so. 

Quest Commitment & Duration

Similar to The New War Quest, once you commit to beginning Jade Shadows you will be unable to do other Warframe activities for the duration of the Quest. You will be able to pause the game, and your progress will be saved between missions. It is roughly a ~30 minute experience, perhaps faster for seasoned Tenno! 

Content warning: This quest contains scenes of trauma related to motherhood.

NEW WEAPONS

Jade brings with her a full Arsenal of weapons that evoke feelings of hope, a counterpart to that which evokes an absence of light.

NEW GAME MODE: ASCENSION 

The Stalker’s stronghold is under intensive assault from marauding Corpus forces, but what they’re after must remain safe. You’ll need to initiate an emergency evacuation before embarking on a grueling ascent through enemy-infested elevator shafts to the Extraction waiting for you above.

Visit the new Brutus node on Uranus after completing the Jade Shadows Quest to assist Ordis in gathering Vestigial Motes! This new non-endless mission unfurls in three stages:

Stage 1 – Mote Collection

The Corpus have set up Mote Collectors to extract energy from the air – Ordis has taken them over, so you must defend them while they complete extraction!

Stage 2 – Ascension

Once you have extracted the Motes, they must be transported in their Extraction Capsule top-side! To do so, power the elevator using Ionic Capsules dotted throughout the map, or dropped from enemies. As you approach them, they’ll be marked with a small green waypoint! Keep your eyes peeled for extra-glowy Boosted Ionic Capsules that offer an additional power and speed boost. Once picked up, use the Alternative Fire to throw them at the Extraction Capsule to power your ascent!

Players can keep up with the ever-rising gameplay with increased jump height (thanks to a special Air Support deployed by Ordis), and via jump pads littered on various platforms. Should you take an unfortunate fall to the bottom of the map, use the jump pad at the bottom of the elevator to catch up to its height. 

Bonus Objective: 

Along with the Ionic Capsules, players may come across Sister Beacons hidden throughout the map, identified by the soft pinging noise they emanate upon approach. Collect three of these to summon a Sister of Parvos, who will spawn once you reach the top of the Elevator shaft. Defeating the Sister will reward you with 5-7 Vestigial Motes and a chance at a new Arcane, listed below  (8-10 Motes and a guaranteed Arcane on Steel Path). Sisters of Parvos will also drop Steel Essence in Steel Path Ascension missions.

Stage 3 – Extraction

Once you’ve made it to the top, escort the Extraction Capsule safely to extraction and defend it from Corpus foes along the way! Should enemies manage to deplete the health of the Extraction Capsule, its progress will stop briefly and the health will regenerate, at which point it will continue on its path once more. 

Rewards

Successfully completing an Ascension mission will award players with 11-13 Vestigial Motes (16-18 on Steel Path), as well as a reward from the mission drop table, including:

  • Jade’s Component Blueprints
  • Endo
  • Relics
  • Harmony Blueprint
  • Cantare Blueprint
  • Evensong Blueprint 

For a full overview of the Ascension Drop Tables, please review our Drop Tables site

Releasing Vestigial Motes

Visit Ordis in the Larunda Relay on Mercury during Operation: Belly of the Beast to exchange Vestigial Motes for various wares, including: 

  • Jade Main and Component Blueprints
  • Harmony Blueprint
  • Cantare Blueprint
  • Evensong Blueprint
  • New Arcanes (read on below to learn more!) 

Once Operation: Belly of the Beast ends, Ordis will relocate to the Drifter Camp and offer his wares there. He finally got a job, yipee!

New Arcanes

Enhance your Arsenal with these new Arcanes! Acquire these new enhancements from Sisters of Parvos spawned in the new Ascension game mode, or exchange them for Vestigial Motes via Ordis in the Larunda Relay.

NEW EXIMUS UNIT: JADE LIGHT EXIMUS

Introducing a new Eximus Type: Jade Light Eximus.

Players will find them in all missions where Eximus spawn, where they will face the threat of Jade Light on the battlefield.

These new foes will target up to 2 players, and will summon a beam of Jade Light that follows them and deals increasing damage the longer you are in contact with it. Players can either avoid the Jade Light until it dissipates (~8 seconds) or attempt to destroy the beam by shooting at the top of it — or kill the Eximus unit itself, of course. Once a Jade Light is summoned, the Eximus’ Ability will go on a short cooldown before another can be cast.

 

OPERATION: BELLY OF THE BEAST

JUNE 18TH @ 11:30 AM ET – JULY 18TH @ 11:30 AM ET

Parvos Granum is attempting to harvest Volatile Motes to make his own Jade Light Eximus army, and only you and Ordis stand in his way. With Ordis’ help, you can commandeer the Mote Collectors and put an end to Parvos’ plans. 

Venture to a secretive location (discovered in the Jade Shadows Quest) at Brutus on Uranus to preserve Jade’s legacy! Fight against the Corpus to earn new and returning rewards from previous Operations.

What You Need To Know

Operation: Belly of the Beast requires you to step into this shrouded location – only those who have completed the Jade Shadows Quest are permitted to do so.  

After finishing the Jade Shadows Quest, players will have access to a new node on Uranus: Brutus. Here they can access the new Ascension game mode and access Operation-specific missions. Successfully foiling Parvos’ efforts will reward you with special Volatile Motes, which can be exchanged for Operation rewards.

What You Need To Do

While Operation: Belly of the Beast is live, players will have access to special nodes that allow them to take on Parvo’s forces. In these missions, all Eximus units you face will be empowered by Jade Light – meaning the only Eximus units that will spawn are Jade Light Eximus. You can help Ordis in his mission to stop Parvos in one of three ways:

 

  • Operation Variant of Brutus (Uranus)
  • Operation Alerts
  • Stalker Joins the Fray

Operation Variant of Brutus (Uranus)

In traditional Operation style, the new Brutus node on Uranus has its own Operation variant. Play Ascension as you know it, but with all Eximus units spawning in as Jade Light Eximus. On top of the regular Ascension rewards, each Operation mission will award players with 4-6 Volatile Motes (8-10 on Steel Path), which can be traded for rewards via Ordis in the Larunda Relay.

Summoning a Sister of Parvos will also earn players an extra 1-3 Volatile Motes (2-4 on Steel Path), as well as her usual drops.

 

Operation Alerts

In addition to the Brutus node on Uranus, timed Operation Alerts will appear across the solar system that will also reward players with 10 Volatile Motes (15 on Steel Path). These non-Ascension missions will have normal gameplay, but will feature increased Eximus Spawns, and will only feature Jade Light type Eximus. Look for these time-limited Alerts appearing every half hour or so as an alternative method to earning Volatile Motes. 

Stalker Joins the Fray

Visiting Ordis in the Larunda Relay not only allows you to earn Operation Rewards, but also lets you call on an old foe to assist in your efforts. In speaking to Ordis, selecting the “A Shared Purpose?” option will allow you to join another Squad’s mission as Stalker. Doing so will reward you with the usual mission rewards, but at risk of losing them all should you be downed.

Rewards

No Operation is complete without rewards, and Ordis has collected quite a few offerings for you to choose from. Ordis can be found in the Larunda Relay in the Navigation Room, where he will trade Volatile Motes for rewards.

Community Progress

Belly of the Beast comes with a Community Progress segment, tracking the total Volatile Motes collected by players. As the total number of Volatile Motes collected ticks up, progress is made towards a new variant of the Jade Light Ephemera, unlocking it for purchase for all players at Ordis in the Larunda Relay.

  • Gilded Clan Sigil
  • Glyphed Clan Sigil
  • Phased Clan Sigil
  • Belly of the Beast Emblem
  • Arcanes:
    • Arcane Energize
    • Arcane Grace
    • Arcane Barrier

All Arcanes purchased from the “Commit Volatile Motes” and “Clan Contributions” stores will be limited to 42 (2 max rank Arcanes) per Arcane per player to prevent Operation burnout. 

Clan Trophies

Volatile Motes collected by Clan members throughout the Operation will earn your Clan Trophies!  

Like previous Operations, Clan Trophies are available in Terracotta, Bronze, Silver, and Gold. The amount of Volatile Motes required to unlock each tier are as follows:

Clan Tier Terracotta Bronze Silver Gold
Ghost 15 30 45 60
Shadow 45 90 135 180
Storm 150 300 450 600
Mountain 450 900 1350 1800

RESISTANCES AND STATUS REWORK 

As discussed over the last two months, across both Devstreams 179 and 180, we’ve overhauled Warframe’s Health Types and Resistances alongside a select few Status Effects! 

To help players revisit their builds following these changes, an inbox containing 3x Forma will be sent to all players today (June 18th) at 12pm ET today.  

New Health Types

Previously, enemy resistances and vulnerabilities were split between 13 Health Types:  

Grineer Cloned Flesh Ferrite Armor Alloy Armor Machinery    
Corpus Flesh Shields Proto-Shield Robotic Ferrite Armor Alloy Armor
Infested Infested  Infested Flesh Fossilized Infested Sinew Ferrite Armor  
Sentient Flesh Robotic Ferrite Armor Alloy Armor Shields  
Murmur Indifferent Facade Ferrite Armor Infested Machinery    

Each of these Health Types had unique interactions with the various Status Types: 

Physical Impact: Stagger Puncture: Reduced Damage Output/+Crit Chance Slash: Bleed      
Individual Status Cold: Slow/+Crit Damage Electricity: Tesla Chain Heat: Burn Toxic: Poison    
Combined Status Blast (Heat + Cold): Inaccuracy Corrosive (Toxic + Electricity): Corrosion Gas (Heat + Toxic): Gas Cloud Magnetic (Cold + Electricity): Shield Disruption Radiation (Heat + Electricity): Friendly Fire Viral (Cold + Toxic): Amplified Health Damage 

Optimizing builds to make use of this system required players to memorize health types per enemy (not just per Faction) and their resistances/vulnerabilities. Our goal is to reduce the friction necessary to engage in optimal play, so we’ve:

a) Simplified the number of Health Types

b) Redesigned how Faction Resistances work 

c) Increased the visibility of the new vulnerabilities in normal gameplay flow 

Instead of having 13 Health Types, we have simplified them into 4:
 

  • Health
  • Armor
  • Shields
  • Overguard

Now, these Health Types only serve to differentiate between Status Effects and Abilities that affect them, such as Magnetic hindering Shields, Corrosive stripping Armor, or Viral amplifying Health damage.

We’ve changed the system so that Resistances and Vulnerabilities are no longer tied to the previous Health Types. Resistances and Vulnerabilities are now based upon the Faction a player is engaging with. 

Star Chart “Suggested Damage”

Vulnerabilities are now listed in The Star Chart mission nodes! Here, we aim to recommend the appropriate per-Faction Resistances, which will then universally affect that specific group.

The Star Chart now shows Faction Resistances per node. Aligned with the present Faction, Vulnerabilities and Resistances will be listed to communicate the “Suggested Damage” options best used against any specific Faction or location.

 

Sub-Factions will also have different Vulnerabilities and Resistances from their primary counterpart. The three main Sub-Factions are:

  • Kuva Grineer
  • Corpus Amalgam
  • Deimos Infested

Viewing Faction Vulnerabilities and Resistances now also depends on where the player is within Warframe’s Story. The Factions (and Sub-Factions) will be unlocked via:

Factions:

  • Grineer: Unlocked by default.
  • Corpus: Unlocked by default.
  • Infested: Unlocked by default.
  • Orokin: Unlocked after Phobos Junction.
  • Sentient: Unlocked after The Second Dream Quest completion.
  • Narmer: Unlocked after The New War Quest completion.
  • Zariman: Unlocked after Angels of the Zariman Quest completion.
  • Murmur: Unlocked after Whispers in the Walls Quest completion.

Sub-Factions:

  • Kuva Grineer: Unlocked after The War Within Quest completion.
  • Corpus Amalgam: Unlocked after Jupiter Junction.
  • Deimos Infested: Unlocked after Heart of Deimos Quest completion.

Simplified Faction Resistances

With the removal of Resistances/Vulnerabilities being tied to Health Type, they will now be Faction-specific.

Default Faction Vulnerabilities and Resistances:

  • Grineer: Vulnerable to Impact and Corrosive
  • Corpus: Vulnerable to Puncture and Magnetic
  • Infested: Vulnerable to Slash and Heat

Factions by Quest Vulnerabilities and Resistances:

  • Orokin: 
    • Vulnerable to Puncture and Viral
    • Resistantto Radiation
  • Sentient: 
    • Vulnerable to Cold and Radiation
    • Resistantto Corrosive
  • Narmer: 
    • Vulnerable to Slash and Toxin
    • Resistantto Magnetic.
  • Zariman: Vulnerable to Void
  • The Murmur: 
    • Vulnerable to Electric and Radiation
    • Resistant to Viral
      • Rogue Necramechs also fall under these Vulnerabilities and Resistances.

Sub-Faction Vulnerabilities and Resistances:

  • Kuva Grineer: 
    • Vulnerable to Impact and Corrosive
    • Resistantto Heat
  • Corpus Amalgam: 
    • Vulnerable to Electric and Magnetic
    • Resistantto Blast
  • Deimos Infested: 
    • Vulnerable to Blast and Gas
    • Resistantto Viral

With these Resistance and Vulnerability changes, we’ve made a notable decision to make Impact deadlier towards the Grineer, while making Puncture deadlier towards the Corpus. This is a departure from the previous system, however, we believe that these two Statuses are more suited for these specific Factions.

Since Impact Status Effects enables Mercy actions, we found that it wasn’t all too effective against Corpus due to their lower Health counts compared to their Shields, while Mercy killing Grineer is more accessible due to their innate tankiness. The Corpus can deliver incredibly high amounts of raw damage, allowing for Puncture to naturally play effectively into limiting their damage potential.

Armor Adjustments

Important Note: We have not changed player Armor. This only applies to enemy Armor!

Enemy Armor scaling in its previous current iteration meant that Armor Stripping was almost an all-or-nothing game, especially at higher levels. This resulted in players focusing on Armor Stripping as a way to tackle Grineer at higher difficulty content. Our goal is to reduce some of the extreme damage reduction offered by Armor at high levels, and make partial Armor Stripping more feasible. 

To do so, we are making the following changes: 

  • Armor has a maximum cap of 2700 Armor (90% Damage Reduction).
  • Armor has a minimum cap of 200 Armor.
  • Steel Path no longer increases Armor values.
  • Grineer enemies have increased Health scaling.
  • Altered the formula for Armor Reduction to increase the effectiveness of Partial Armor Stripping.
    • For reference, currently around 50% of Damage Resistance came from just 300 Armor, which is why complete Armor Strip felt so needed at higher levels.

Additionally, our goal was to make partial Armor Stripping a more valuable tool. By capping enemy Armor and adjusting how Armor is calculated, a partial Armor Strip will allow players to engage with high-level Grineer more easily – meaning max Corrosion stacks against an Armored enemy (reducing the Armor by 80%) will feel more impactful due to the new distribution of Damage Resistance from Armor values). 

Full Armor Strip is still valuable, but we wanted to even the playing field so players didn’t feel forced to build around it.

Shield Adjustments

Important note: We have not changed player Shields. This only applies to enemy Shields!

The Grineer are tankier by design, but the Corpus try to make the difference through their Shields. However, Corpus Effective Hit Points (EHP) are significantly lower, making them often trivial to deal with by comparison. Our goal is to reduce the discrepancy between Grineer and Corpus time-to-kill (TTK) by making Corpus Shields a bit more challenging and interesting to fight. 

Changes to Enemy Shields:

  • Shields now scale more quickly starting at level 80. This means stronger Shields than before as players fight higher-leveled Shielded enemies. 
  • Shield Recharge Delay is now unified across all enemy types.
  • Shield Recharge Delay now has a minimum and maximum length depending on how much damage has been dealt to enemy Shields.
    • The more damage dealt, the slower enemy Shields will begin recharging, so if you can’t outpace enemy Shields right away, you can chip their Recharge Delay down within a maximum and a minimum.
      • For example, if enemy Shields break at any point, it automatically acts as if 200% damage (which becomes the maximum delay) has been inflicted on those Shields. However, if an enemy absorbs 99% damage (so 1% of their shields left), their accumulated damage taken now sets their Recharge Delay in the middle of their respective minimum and maximum delays. Should they Recharge and you deal another 99% damage to their Shields, they’ll have absorbed 198% damage, taking them to the maximum Recharge delay of what that scaled enemy can have.
  • Shield Recharge Rate scales with enemy level, recharging at a faster rate for higher-leveled enemies.
    • Shield Recharge Rate will also accelerate while Shields are actively Recharging.
      • Shield Recharge Acceleration Rate’s base multiplier greatly increases after level 80, resulting in faster Recharge rates at higher levels.
  • Steel Path Shields are now multiplied by 2.5x, in place of the previous 6.25x. Steel Path Shields were doubly-applying the multiplier unintentionally.

Effective Hit Points (EHP) Adjustments

Enemy stat scalings, such as Health and Shields, now grow faster as enemy level increases, in compensation of the loss in Enemy Armor and to make Shields more engaging to deal with. 

Changes:

  • After Level 75-80, enemies receive increased stats, such as Health, at a slightly increased rate to prevent EHP stagnation.
    • It’s important to note that the increase in Health scaling is not meant to match the EHP values seen by previous levels of Armor. 

Status Effect Reworks

Blast

Our goal with Blast is to invoke an immediate and on-death effect to emphasize explosions. 

Now, instead of enemy inaccuracy, you detonate your enemies! When dealing a Blast Status Effect to an enemy, the following will happen:

Blast Changes:

  • Upon inflicting a Blast Status Effect, individual stacks will cause a mini-explosion, and a max stack count of 10 will inflict combined damage in a 5m radius
    • After 1.5 seconds, an individually incurred Blast Status Effect deals a percentage of base-inflicted damage per stack-explosion and over 100% of base-inflicted damage for a full (10 stack) explosion.
  • Status Duration will increase the delay before the Status Effect applies and depletes.
  • Removed the previous Status Effect of inaccuracy.

Cold

With Cold, we want to fully realize the fantasy of slowing, freezing and shattering your enemies. The existing Cold Status mechanic of slowing enemies is unchanged, but now has a new mechanic upon applying Max Stacks – freezing your foes!

 

Cold Changes:

  • Cold now has a maximum cap of 10 stacks (was 9).
  • Applying 10 Cold stacks to a foe will make them Frozen for 3 seconds. Frozen enemies cannot move, will not recharge Shields, and receive double Critical Damage. After the Frozen effect wears off, 3 Cold stacks will remain. 
    • Bosses, such as Alad V or Kela De Thaym, will be unable to be Frozen since they cannot accumulate 10 Cold stacks.

Gas

Gas often lacked effective readability, making it difficult to distinguish its presence from the enemy or yourself. We’ve introduced enhanced visuals so that when the Gas Status Effect is active, you’ll be able to recognize it more clearly.

Gas Changes:

  • Added VFX on top of the target affected by a Gas Cloud to clearly show an effect is active.
    • In addition to current and new VFX, Gas VFX now also more clearly shows the radius of the Gas Damage-over-Time (DoT) effect around a given target to better understand its impact on surrounding enemies.
      • If a player is inside the radius of the Gas DoT, the visuals are reduced for them to maintain visibility, similar to Frost’s Snow Globe. 
  • Gas VFX now has billowy volume to better present presence.
  • Gas VFX now has additional floating particles around the smoke.

Magnetic

Magnetic has received a few buffs to increase its effectiveness against Shields and to hammer home the power fantasy of overloading enemy Shields.

Magnetic Changes:

  • Damage to Nullifier Bubbles has been increased
    • Minimum Damage raised to 300 Damage per shot.
    • Maximum Damage raised to 1200 Damage per shot.
    • Additionally, we now show the minimum and maximum damage numbers against Nullifier Bubbles, with Magnetic attacks displaying the buffed damage shown above, while non-Magnetic sources will display the original, unbuffed damage.
      • Known issue: Clients see the incorrectly unbuffed damage from Magnetic sources, which is strictly a UI/visual bug. Magnetic sources will continue to deal increased damage towards Nullifier Bubbles despite the incorrect numbers displayed. We will look to resolve this in a future Hotfix/Update. 
  • Reduced Shield Regeneration by a percentage per Magnetic stack against affected targets.
  • Upon Shield/Overguard Breaking a target, the enemy will now be dealt Electric Status damage for a percentage of Max Shields/Overguard per Magnetic stack while also forcing an Electric Status Effect.
  • Magnetic stacks on an enemy with Overguard now allow for bonus damage to Overguard, similar to how Magnetic affects Shields. 

Warframe Changes

With the above changes to Resistances and Status Effects, we took a look at Warframe abilities and made some adjustments to compliment the changes.
 

Frost Rework 

Frost, the definitively-themed Cold Warframe, has received a rework to better situate him for how Cold works with this Update! While Frost dealt icy attacks to his foes, the Freeze from his hit was not tied to Cold Status Effects. With the update to the Cold status, we have also amended his kit to properly use Cold Status Effects to Freeze enemies!   

New passive – Fortifying Freeze:

Cold Status Effects applied by Frost Abilities have their duration increased by 100%. Frost gains 50 Armor per enemy inflicted with Cold Status within 15m.

Freeze (1st Ability):

  • Adds required Cold stacks to freeze instead of simply freezing to both initial hit and AoE interactions.
  • “Duration” is now known as “Freeze Duration,” indicating how long an affected target is Frozen.
  • Doubled the baseline Area of Effect component of the projectiles.
  • The Area-of-Effect aspect now scales with the Ability Range stat. The Area-of-Effect Radius is now present in the Ability description. 

Ice Wave (2nd Ability):

  • “Duration” is now known as “Freeze Duration,” indicating how long an affected target is Frozen.
  • Ice Wave Impedance Augment Changes: 
    • Leaves a frozen trail for 12s that adds a Cold Status Effect per second on enemies in contact with it.

Snow Globe (3rd Ability):

  • Applies a Cold Status Effect every 3 seconds to enemies inside the Globe.
  • Updated “Slow” stat to “Cold Status/Second”.
  • Instantly apply full Cold stacks on cast if an enemy is within Snow Globe range.
  • No longer blocks player projectiles from the outside!
  • Snow Globe now visually cracks as it takes damage.
    • When the Snow Globe breaks, it’ll also explode and deal damage and 3 Cold stacks to enemies within its radius.
  • Chilling Globe Augment Changes:
    • Updated the Augment to add 10 Cold stacks if the condition is met (i.e., unify the freeze with the Cold Status Effects as we normally do now).

Avalanche (4th Ability):

  • Adds the required Cold stacks instead of simply freezing.
  • It’s “Duration” stat is now “Freeze Duration,” indicating how long an affected target is Frozen.

Ember Changes 

We’ve made changes to the Heat-incarnate Warframe Ember to stoke the flames of her power and give her some more firepower. 

Fireball (1st Ability): 

  • Removed the hold to charge to get the maximum damage. The damage increase (500%) from the previous hold charge is now applied to the now default tap cast. 
  • Its AOE now has a 100% guaranteed Heat Status Effect. 
    • Previously, it only had a 50% chance to apply this effect. 
  • Increased radius from 2m to 3m.
    • Previously, its max range with fully charged cast was 2.4m. So we’ve bumped it up to 3m for all casts. 
  • Added an “Immolation Meter” stat to inform of the amount of Heat Fireball generates for Immolation. 

Immolation (2nd Ability): 

  • Reduced the Energy Per Second cost when at max Heat from 10 to 4. 
    • We want to make it easier for players to maintain its Heat gauge at max. 
  • Added an “Immolation Meter” stat to inform of the amount of Heat that is passively generated by Immolation. 

Fire Blast (3rd Ability):

  • Energy cost now scales based on the Immolation’s Heat gauge
    • 75 Energy (at lowest) all the way down to 25 (at max). 
  • Fireblast’s Heat Damage and Armor reduction now affects bosses that are by default vulnerable to Armor stripping abilities (ex: Captain Vor), as well as Acolytes and Demolishers. 
    • Its knockdown effect will not affect those listed above that are CC immune. 
  • Improved hit detection so that enemies  at varying heights in relation to you (above or below) are hit by Fire Blast. 
  • Added an “Immolation Meter” stat to inform of the decrease in Heat generation overtime. 
  • Added an “Immolation Meter on Cast” stat to inform of the % of Heat Fire Blast removed from Immolation when cast. 
  • Augment Mod Changes: 
    • Healing Flame: Now converts all over healing (gaining Health points while as max Health) into Overguard. 
      • Description now reads: “Each enemy hit heals by 25 to 50 depending on current Immolation level. With Ember, over healing grants you Overguard.”
      • This only applies to Ember herself and not to Fire Blast on other Warframes via Helminth. 
    • Purifying Flame: Ember will now also benefit from the Status Effect cleansing and Status Immunity when hit by the ring of fire.  

Inferno (4th Ability): 

  • The Heat damage per second from ring of fire can now trigger Heat Status Effects. 
    • For a boost in its CC effect and to give it a more lasting effect on impacted enemies. 
  • Added an “Angle” stat to better inform of the on-screen LOS checks. 
  • Added an “Immolation Meter” stat to inform of the amount of Inferno generated for Immolation. 

Other Ember Changes/Fixes:

  • Moved Ember’s Passive icon from the Buffs Bar to be above the Immolation Gauge.
  • Fixed recasting Ember’s Fire Blast while another Fire Blast is active resulting in the original Fire Blast not armor stripping or interacting properly with the Healing Flame Augment.
    • Also fixed recasting Fire Blast with a different Ability Strength than the original cast resulting in the first cast taking the Ability Strength of the second cast.
  • Fixed Purifying Flame Blast UI Buff appearing to end earlier than expected. This was a UI-only issue and did not impact gameplay.
  • Fixed Fireblast not showing its Altered stats in the Helminth screen.

Gauss Thermal Sunder Changes

Gauss’ Thermal Sunder has been updated to properly reflect the mechanics of Cold, as he is one of the few Warframes capable of fully Freezing targets with Thermal Sunder!

  • Tapping Thermal Sunder during Redline will now apply 10 Cold stacks – resulting in the same full Freeze. Its duration scales with the duration of his Ability.
  • Tapping Thermal Sunder will add 9 Cold stacks on the second tap if it hits a target already affected by a Cold Status to reach full Freeze.

Atlas Petrify Changes

Atlas’ Petrify interacts with Freezing and Resistance values. As such, he’s received a few changes to clarify and enhance the mechanics of his ability.

  • All enemies caught within the cone are now instantly turned to stone. Petrified enemies have their Damage type modifiers increased by +50% (does not scale with Mods).
    • Added a “Damage Vulnerability” stat to Petrify to communicate this mechanic. 
    • Petrifying Frozen enemies will retain the Frozen Status Effect, but the petrification will override the enemy visually.

Baruuk Reactive Storm Changes

We’ve updated his “Serene Storm” Augment to properly adapt to the new Vulnerabilities, rather than the optimal Health Type as was before.

  • Adjusted Baruuk’s Reactive Storm to utilize the new Vulnerabilities system rather than the Health Type system – Reactive Storm will behave the same way it did before, but we’re just ensuring it works properly with the new system!

Modular Companion Changes

Modular Companions from Son are also now adjusted for the new Resistance system. Mutagens will be based upon Resistances instead of Health Types. 

Predasite Vulpaphyla Elemental Resistance Physical Resistance
Leptosam Adra Heat Puncture
Chiten Elsa Electricity Slash
Arioli Zarim Cold Impact
Monachod Phijar Toxin Slash

Miscellaneous Changes

  • Codex Changes: 
    • Enemies now have their Resistances and Vulnerabilities more clearly labeled in their Codex entry by Faction. 
      • Previously, only the Damage Type icons were present and were labeled as green/red depending on whether it was a resistance or vulnerability. For a player who is unfamiliar with these icons, this was not entirely helpful. 
      • Now, these icons are partnered with their written name and are categorized under a Vulnerability/Resistance header. Additionally, combined elemental damage types have the damages that are used to create it in parentheses. 
    • Health values are now indicated in the Codex entry. 
  • Removed Armor Scaling from Eximus Units due to the Armor Cap implemented. 
    • With the cap, Armor Scaling is unreliable in increasing the difficulty of eliminating Eximus Units. To compensate, Eximus units have had their Health and Shield multipliers increased by 50%.
  • Status Effects no longer inherit Energy Colors, so players can more easily identify when an enemy is affected by a Status Effect.
  • Damage Resistances (from Mods such as Shock Absorbers) have been added as a secondary stat to the Armor Stat on-hover.
    • Tau Resistance was already reflected on-hover for Armor Stats, now other damage resistances are given the same treatment. 
  • Tooltips for Status Effects in the Upgrade screen UI now include what they are “Effective Against” and its “Damage Efficacy”. 
  • Unified terminology for the following Status Effects throughout the game: 
    • “Bleed” is now “Slash Status Effect”
    • “Ignite” is now “Heat Status Effect”
    • “Confusion” is now “Radiation”
    • “Disruption” is now “Magnetic”
    • “Corrosion” is now “Corrosive” 
      • These Status Effects have long been using the above terms interchangeably to describe the same thing. So, in an effort to prevent confusion when interacting with these, we’ve updated all mentions to their proper term. We’ve also fixed inconsistent capitalization of Status Effects throughout the game for consistency. 
  • Zealoid Prelate will now cleanse himself of Status Effects during invulnerable periods to prevent Cold Status Effects unnecessarily slowing the fight.

DUVIRI ADDITIONS & CHANGES

New Decrees

Sourced from our incredible Design Council, a new set of Decrees now have a chance to appear in Duviri to bolster your efforts to escape Dominus Thrax’s vicious cycle. 

The creative minds in the Design Council came back with more ideas than a Maw could eat up! The Dev team chose the following from the ideas pitched and made changes for balance purposes. 

Stats shown below are indicative of each Rank of the Decree to its max stacks. 

 

Bountiful Harvest

Double drops from crates and plants. 

Paragrimm’s Wisdom

Gain 3 Decree Rerolls. 

Marauder’s Nerve

Reduce incoming damage by 3% per Decree up to 75%.

Fault Finder

Weakpoint kills create a 10m field that deals 10/15/20% of the killing blow’s damage as Electricity Damage every second for 8 seconds. 

Grim Armory

On kill: 5/10/15% chance to refill the ammo for whatever weapon you have equipped. 

Rain of Vitality

Enemies have +60% additional chance to drop Health Orbs. Health Orbs increase Armor by 80/160/240 for 10 seconds. Effect triples for Warframes.

Storm Caller

Good Governance (Spiteful) 

Sacrifice x0.5 from your Critical Chance to gain x3 to your squad’s Critical Damage.

Cloak and Dagger (Spiteful):

Your weapons deal an extra hit with 100% Slash Damage and Status, but 100 Slash Damage with Status are self inflicted when you attack. 

Share your Feedback & Bug Reports on the new Decrees in the dedicated Subforums. 

New Undercroft Mission: Alchemy 

Your knowledge on the elements from your explorations of Albrecht’s Laboratories is required in Duviri, Tenno! Maintain the laws of alchemical science in the Undercroft with the addition of the Alchemy mission type.  

Like most things in Duviri, completing an Alchemy Undercroft mission is different from how you know it outside of the Spiral. Here’s what you can expect: 

  • Players must fill 2 Crucibles in order to complete an Undercroft mission or to move to the next stage in the Circuit. 
    • There is no Conversion Progress mixing stage in the Undercroft – players do not need to destroy Distressed Pipes while the Crucible mixes the elements. 
  • Dax Enemies will drop the required Amphors for the active Crucible, while other enemies will drop them at random. 

General Alchemy Change (applies to Duviri and standard mode): 

  • Slightly reduced the amount of Amphors required to fill up an element in the Crucible for Squads of 3 or 4 players.

Pathos Clamps Rewarded From Undercroft Portals

Pathos Clamps are now rewarded from completing Undercroft Portal side objectives (story stage Undercroft portals do not reward Pathos Clamps) in the Duviri Experience! This is in addition to the current Decrees, Arcanes, and Steel Essence (if played on Steel Path difficulty) rewards. 

Undercroft Portals completed on standard difficulty have a guaranteed reward of 1 Pathos Clamp for completion, while those completed on Steel Path have a guaranteed reward of 3 Pathos Clamps. 

NEW PLAYER EXPERIENCE IMPROVEMENTS

Debt-Bond Farming Changes

We have revamped Solaris United Bounty Drop Tables to increase the amount of Debt-Bonds earned across the board. Our goal with these changes was to increase Debt-Bond drop rates, but not affect rare or desired items already in the Drop Tables. 

  • Moved Debt-Bonds from Stage 1 to Final Stage, but increased drop rate significantly for every Bounty Tier.
    • Running the first Bounty Stage was a common practice to farm Debt-Bonds, and while we wanted to increase Debt-Bond drop chance, leaving them in that Stage would only incentivize that behavior further. 
    • With these in the Final Stage Drop Table, players who complete all the Bonus Objectives will have an extra kick at the Debt-Bond can, since the Bonus Objectives reward comes from this drop table. 
  • Increased existing Debt-Bond drop rates in Middle-Stage Drop Tables (Stages 2, 3, and 4, where applicable).
  • Removed lackluster “filler” items from the Uncommon and Rare reward tables: 
    • Level 5-15: 3,000 Credits
    • Level 10-30: Tepa Nodules
    • Level 20-40: 3,000 Credits
    • Level 30-50: Tellurium
    • Level 40-60 (including Narmer and Steel Path): 500 Kuva
  • Replaced 10k Credits reward in Level 40-60 Bounties (including Narmer and Steel Path) with rare resources (Neurodes or Orokin Cells).
  • Slightly adjusted Garuda Blueprints and Synth Mods drop rates to accommodate changes above, but we did our best to avoid increases or decreases over 5%. 
  • Reduced the Credit costs of Ticker’s Debt Bonds by 50%. 
    • Previously, the cost would randomly roll between 5k – 350k Credits depending on the bundle offered. Now, it’ll roll between 2.5k – 175k. 

For a full overview of the Drop Table changes, please review our Drop Tables site

Voidrig Acquisition Improvements

  • Players who haven’t completed The War Within are now prevented from equipping the Necramech Summon to their Gear Wheel. 
  • Further amended the Voidrig Blueprint build requirements to require less investment in the Necralisk Syndicate, reduce overall farming time, and include resources that can be found in the regular Star Chart.
    • Voidrig Casing Blueprint:
      • Replaced 8 Stellated Necrathene (Rank 2) with 30 Faceted Tiametrite (Rank 0)
      • Replaced 5 Cranial Foremount (Rank 4) with 140 Lucent Teroglobes
    • Voidrig Engine Blueprint:
      • Replaced 1 Biotic Filter with 4 Parasitic Tethermaw
      • Replaced 6 Cabochon Embolos (Rank 3) with 10 Orokin Cells
    • Voidrig Capsule Blueprint: 
      • Replaced 2 Scintillant (locked behind Master Rank 5) with 3 Morphics 
      • Reduced Spinal Core Section cost from 15 to 12, as players can get a maximum of 2 per fish
    • Voidrig Weapon Pod Blueprint:
      • Replaced 40 Thaumic Distillate (Rank 2) with 40 Purified Heciphron (Rank 1)
      • Replaced 6 Trapezium Xenorhast (Rank 3) with 30 Purged Dagonic (Rank 0)
  • Moved Damaged Necramech pieces from Necraloid’s offerings in the Necralisk to Father.
    • Players are given the Voidrig Blueprints upon completing the Heart of Deimos, but the majority of the acquisition path is hidden behind The War Within. While we initially added these items to Necraloid in Update 34: Abyss of Dagath, we found that players still had difficulty finding them, especially if they had not yet progressed in the Main Story Path. Moving them to Father is lore-consistent and should help reduce the grind further. 

Awakening Quest Improvements

Starter Warframe Color Customization

We have added the ability to select one of three color presets (composed of the free colors in the Classic Palette) in the starter Warframe selection screen for Mag, Excalibur and Volt in the Awakening Quest. The selected colors remain during the Quest and afterwards until the player changes them from Arsenal. 

 

You can reset to the Warframe’s default colors by hitting the “X” icon next to the color options. 

 

Awakening Quest Checkpoints

We have added checkpoints to the Awakening Quest so players who leave part-way do not have to start from the beginning when they return. Players will be notified once they hit a Checkpoint, and will get a preview of the remaining checkpoints they need to complete to help them better understand their progress.

 

Other New Player Experience Changes and Fixes:

  • Updated the TennoGuide path to include suggested Nodes in addition to Quests/Junctions up until the Mercury Junction.
    • This change offers new Tenno the most optimized path to progress through Venus in their Main Story path. New player experience is a delicate balance of guiding players on what to do next, while maintaining player agency in their Warframe journey. 
  • Moved the Unda, Venus node (Spy mission) so that it is no longer required to complete to get to the Mercury Junction.  
    • Spy missions are a bit advanced for new players who are still learning the ins and outs of parkouring. So we’ve moved Unda away from the main path and onto a branch of Venera so that it is optional to complete. 
    • The new path to the Junction is now E-Gate > Fortuna > Kiliken. 
    • Increased enemy level range of the Unda, Venus node from 4-6 to 6-8 now that it follows Venera (which has a 5-7 range). 
  • Replaced ammo drops from storage crates at the start of the Awakening Quest with resources, as players do not have weapons at the stage they appear. 
  • Updated the Bullet Jump tutorial text in the Awakening Quest to read “Hold” instead of “Crouch/Slide” to better inform players on how to perform Bullet Jumps. 
  • Added a flashing icon that points players in the direction of Glass Shards in the Saya’s Vigil Quest when using a Scanner. 
  • Removed the Mastery Rank requirement from Maroo’s Bazaar. 
  • Reduced the difficulty of the enemies in the Corpus spy drone defense sequence in the “Talk to Thursby in Fortuna” stage of the Vox Solaris Quest. 
    • These enemies (notably the Terra Shockwave Moa and Terra Trencher) were rather dangerous for new players who may not be equipped to handle them, so we replaced them with more manageable enemy types. 
  • Fixed enemy pathing issues at the start of the Awakening Quest.

Arsenal UI Additions & Changes

Featured Look Links

We’ve added a new feature to the Arsenal to display a curated list of Featured Warframe Looks! You can find the list in your Arsenal when customizing your fashion (Warframe > Appearance), replacing the spot that was taken by the stats window. 

 

Our goal with this feature is to display your amazing fashion to share with other players! Very similar to the Look Link feature in chat, players will be able to click through the Featured Look Link list, preview fashion, and apply it to their own Warframes using the “Apply Look” button. 

 

Currently, you can see fashion curated from our very own DE staff for the following Warframes: Jade, Excalibur, Mag and Volt. 

We will be collecting and curating Look Links from players to add to the Featured Look Link list. Stay tuned for more info. 

Upgrade Screen Additions & Changes

  • Added the option to duplicate a Mod Config onto another Config in the Upgrade screen.
    • Here’s how to duplicate your Mod Configs: 
    • Select the new “Duplicate Configs” button in the far right of the Config bar on a Mod Config that you’d like to duplicate onto another one of your Mod Configs.
    • Select the Mod Config you’d like to duplicate to another Config. 
    • Confirm you’d like to override the selected Mod Config. 
      • As an example, Config A is selected, use the Duplicate button to copy over the Mods in Config A to Config B. Config B now has the same Mods as Config A. 
  • Added a little indicator to show the Polarity of the Slot when a Mod with the wrong Polarity has been equipped onto it.
    • Gone are the days where you’d have to remove the Mod to see what Polarity is hiding behind it, you can now make informed Modding decisions without having to do so!
  • Added a sound FX when equipping an Arcane Adapter to a slot in the Upgrade screen. 

Stat UI Changes & Fixes

In the Dante Unbound Update, we reworked the Warframe, Weapon, and Railjack Stats UI to reduce the sometimes overwhelming visual noise and instead put focus on just the most important information. With Jade Shadows, we continued those efforts by taking into account the player feedback and bug reports we received from the rework. 

Changes: 

  • Added a dynamic diamond icon next to stats that changes states depending on equipped Mods:
    • This icon always appears next to “Core Stats” (visible at all times in the stat screen) that have Secondary Stats nested within them to indicate that hovering over it will show the tooltip. 
      • In an effort to clean up the screen, it wasn’t obvious enough that Secondary Stats existed. While not as important as Core Stats, players should still be able to easily identify which of the Core Stats contain other relevant stats. 
    • Dynamic States: The following states are also reflected in the Secondary Stats tooltip to inform players that they are also affected. 
      • Increasing stat beyond the previous values will prompt a green arrow to appear above the diamond to communicate the increase.
      • Decreasing stat below the base values will prompt a gray arrow to appear below the diamond to communicate the decrease. 
  • The following is related to and was also listed above in the Resistances & Status Effects Rework section:
    • Damage Resistances (from Mods such as Shock Absorbers) have been added as a secondary stat to the Armor Stat on-hover. (This is related to and listed above in the Resistances & Status Effects Rework section). 
      • Tau Resistance was already reflected on-hover for Armor Stats, now other damage resistances are given the same treatment. 
    • Tooltips for Status Effects in the Upgrade screen UI will now include what they are “Effective Against” and its “Damage Efficacy”. (This is related to and listed above in the Resistances & Status Effects Rework section). 
  • Conditional stats will now remain visible after unequipping the Mods that prompt them to appear so that players can see the comparison with/without the Mods. They will disappear after leaving and returning to the Upgrade screen. 
  • Shield Recharge rate is now displayed as a flat value instead of a percentage of total Shield value. 
    • Let’s use Xaku’s base stats as an example of how this stat will now appear in the UI (their stats have not changed, just how it is displayed):
      • Before: “9.6% per second”
      • After: “31.5 per second”
  • Added a Damage Falloff Secondary Stat to the Melee Slam Attack Core Stat: “Deal X% Damage to enemies on the edge of the impact zone.” 
  • Moved “Reload Speed” back as a Core Stat instead of nesting it within “Magazine”. 
  • Added a Void Damage tooltip in the Operator stats UI to show its efficacy stat and Status Effect description. 
    • Now reads: “Damage Efficacy: X damage to Zariman.
      Status Effect: Highly effective against enemies with Overguard Health and Sentients as it resets their damage adaptation. Void creates a bullet attractor sphere on the target that attracts and concentrates further attacks.”.
  • Added an Overguard tooltip to Rage, Archwing, Necramech and Hunter Adrenaline Mods, due to their new interactions with Overguard as of Update 35.5.6
  • Reordered Charge Rate stat to the top of the list for Bow and Charge weapons, and renamed it to “Charge Time”. 
  • Changed Melee Follow Through stat to be represented as a percentage instead of decimals. 
  • Added measurement units to Weapon stats:
    • Ex:  Added “s” for seconds on the Melee Heavy Attack Wind-up stat and “m” for meters on the Weapon falloff stat. 

Fixes: 

  • Fixed Valence Bonus stat sometimes rounding up decimals when viewed in the Arsenal or when purchasing from Ergo Glast.
  • Fixed Precision Intensify not properly displaying Ability Strength stat increases for the following Exalted Abilities in the Arsenal: 
    • Excalibur’s Exalted Blade
    • Baruuk’s Serene Storm
    • Titania’s Razorwing
    • Valkyr’s Hysteria
    • Ivara’s Artemis Bow
    • Mesa’s Peacemaker 
    • Sevagoth’s Exalted Shadow
    • Wukong’s Primal Fury
  • Fixed Chat Linking unowned equipment (Warframes, Weapons, etc.) resulting in fewer stats being listed than if they were owned.
  • Fixed certain Incarnon Weapon stats showing as “0” and the UI showing a comparison state as if Mods had been equipped, when in fact they had not yet. 
  • Fixed the Wind Up stat increasing in UI instead of decreasing when Heavy Attack Wind Up Speed Mods are equipped. 
  • Fixed the Chilling Reload Mod’s Reload Speed stat going red instead of green when increasing its rank. 
  • Fixed Paris Prime’s Status stat tooltip not showing a breakdown of “chance for each Status Effect type per hit.”
  • Fixed stats not updating in the UI while modding Companions in a Relay/Town/Dojo/etc. 
  • Fixed repeatedly hovering over Praedos’ “Drifting Grace” Incarnon Evolution incorrectly increasing a Warframe’s Sprint Speed stat in the Arsenal UI.
  • Fixed the following Warframe Aura Mods not affecting the Ammo from Pickups stat in the Arsenal UI: 
    • Rifle Scavenger
    • Pistol Scavenger
    • Shotgun Scavenger
    • Sniper Scavenger
  • Fixed the Critical Multiplier from Braton Incarnon’s “Prelude of Might” perk not being indicated in the Arsenal stats (this was strictly a UI issue, the stats increase was applying).
  • Fixed Ruvox Incarnon’s Damage stat not updating from Impact to Puncture when transformed to Incarnon Mode in the Arsenal stats. 

HUD Changes

Improved HUD Scaling 

We’ve changed the HUD Scale option so that the HUD now scales proportionally to the player’s game resolution!

Previously, the HUD was what we call “Fixed size”, where the HUD elements were of a predetermined size that did not automatically scale to accommodate different resolutions. Players who used the game resolution 1280x720px (the “Fixed Size” resolution) would see the HUD at the initial 100% size we made it for.

However, if players set their game resolution to 1920x1080px, the HUD would then be 66.6% of the size we initially made it for. This led to players having to manually change the HUD Scale in the settings.

Now, we have changed the HUD to scale proportionally. The HUD Scale is now based on the player’s game resolution, and with that the HUD Scale 100 proportionally looks the same at every resolution.

 

 

Making the game resolution wider does not continue to increase the size of the HUD. The HUD Scale is now going off whichever measurement (horizontal or vertical) is lower than 16:9, and with that, it will use the smallest axis as its anchor.

Previously, the HUD Scale option ranged from 1x to 3x (Scale 100 – 300). Now, we have changed it to 0.5x to 2x (Scale 50 – 200).

Please note: With Jade Shadows, we have set the player’s HUD Scale option to 100(%) so that players don’t get blasted with a super-sized UI. To make adjustments, go to Options > Interface > HUD.

The following numbers show the overall HUD Scale difference from before vs. now:

Some expected numbers based on the aspect math at 100 HUD scale:

  • Old 720p – 100 scale = New 720p – 125 scale
  • Old 1080p – 100 scale = New 1080p – 80 scale
  • Old 1440p – 100 scale = New ~63 scale
  • Old 4k – 100 scale = New ~42 scale, so no longer available

Other way around at new default HUD scales, should be equivalent to:

  • 720p: 80
  • 900p: 100
  • 1080p: 120
  • 1440p: 160
  • 4k: 240

HUD Mod Pop-Ups

Previously, any Mod that you acquired as a drop mid-mission would take up a considerable chunk of your screen, no matter the Mod. So we’ve made HUD changes to minimize the impact of these Mods: 

  • Mods that you already own will now appear minimized at the bottom-center of your screen (like Resources), while new or Rare Mods will appear as they have previously.
  • Common Mods will appear at the bottom of your screen with a Bronze tag and a singular diamond, and Uncommon Mods will appear as a silver tag with two diamonds.

 

General UI Changes & Fixes

  • Damage Numbers have received an overhaul to make it easier to see while damaging an enemy. Damage number “flyoffs” (the way the numbers appear and move off of damaged enemies) will now “fly” further based on distance from target, to ensure you can aim to hit the target easily without numbers blocking your view.
  • <MEDIA>@https://content.invisioncic.com  
    • The last “Cloud” iteration of damage numbers (bunched around the reticle) is still available to use if preferred in the Interface Options > Show Damage Numbers. 
  • We’ve updated Incarnon Evolution descriptions across all Incarnon Weapons and Incarnon Genesis to improve overall clarity and be more consistent with Mods, Arcanes, and each other. For reassurance, the upgrades themselves have not changed, only their descriptions. 
    • For example, Incarnons which previously contained the phrase “Increase Critical Chance by |VALUE|%” now read “Increase Base Critical Chance by |VALUE|%.
  • The Magistar Incarnon’s Evolution II Perk ‘Crushing Verdict’ has been changed from multiplicative follow-through to base follow-through. This means that the value also changed from +100% to +40% to maintain the same effect. Players should not notice a functional change.
  • The Nami Solo Incarnon’s Evolution II Perk ‘Master’s Flourish’ has had its text corrected. The effect has not changed, but the text did not match the effect this perk was providing.
    • The text has been changed from “On Finisher:+20% Health per second for 10s.” to  “On Finisher: +40 Health per second for 10s.”
  • The Syndicate Segment UI panel in your Orbiter has a new look! 
    • In addition to its new sleek design, it now shows the Syndicate you are Pledged to more clearly. 
    • You can also now see exactly how much Daily Standing you have from this panel instead of having to interact with the Segment. 
    • The relation to each Syndicate is now also indicated here.
  • Added a “View Augments” option to the Ability preview tooltip that will show you associated Augment Mods (in the Abilities screen itself and at Helminth). Hovering over the Augment Mods in the pop-up will tell you which Syndicates you can acquire them from.
  • Moved the “Cursor” customization options from “Customize UI Theme” to the Accessibility tab. 
    • Players had reported that these customizations were difficult to find in the settings, so we’ve moved it over to the Accessibility tab since it is inherently an Accessibility option and will have much better visibility there.
  • Added Damage/Status Effect icons to correlating mentions in descriptions throughout the game. For example, a Heat icon will now properly display with any mention of “Heat Damage.”
  • Unowned Captura Scenes are now indicated by an “eye” icon instead of a “Locked” tag. 
  • Changed the “Equip” button in the Arsenal to say “Swap”. 
  • Changed confirmation button from “Give” to “Confirm” in Bird 3’s Shiny Treasures screen. 
  • Added a subtle on-hover glow to Decrees to make it clearer which one is being selected. 
  • Updated Inbox sender icons to have consistent backgrounds. 
  • Added a “Last Equipped” label to the last-equipped Relic in an endless Void Fissure mission. Relics with this label will always appear at the top of the Relic selection screen in-mission.   
  • The Void Fissure tab in the Navigation Screen will now appear if you have previously owned a Void Relic, even if you don’t currently have any in your inventory. 
    • Previously it would only appear if you owned Void Relics (and had the Void Relic Segment installed in your Orbiter). 
  • Updated the damage type icons to their colored versions to improve visibility in the following UI areas (not exhaustive):
    • Arsenal Stats
    • Simulacrum’s enemy tooltips 
    • Lavos’ HUD
    • Alchemy mission HUD (including icons over Amphors) 
    • And more! 
  • Fixed Syndicates with negative reputation saying they are ready to Rank Up when they are at the max amount of negative Standing instead of the minimum. 
  • Fixed being unable to scroll through the list of Warframes in the “Invert Tap/Hold Abilities” setting. 
  • Fixed the “Invert Tap/Hold Abilities” menu opening up blank. 
  • Fixed “How To” option appearing on locked Nightwave Acts.
    • Players will gain access to the “How To” pop-up once they have completed the Nightwave Act’s prerequisites to avoid spoilers.
  • Fixed the tutorial button missing in the Arsenal when using a controller.
  • Fixed the Cedo Daybreak Skin displaying the “This is a cosmetic for Cedo, which you do not own.” regardless of Cedo ownership message on-hover in the “Tune in to Nora’s Mix Vol. 6” preview screen.
  • Fixed Attachments Appearance Menu for Railjack Crew not allowing players to customize energy tint. 
  • Fixed Necraloid showing up in the Sanctum Anatomica Fast Travel menu for players who are not Rank 5 in the Cavia Syndicate. 
  • Fixed Open Squads always appearing as 0 regardless of actual Open Squad count when selecting missions from the Chrysalith Elevator. 
  • Fixed interacting with a Terminal while a Glaive and Incarnon Form Pistol are dual-wielded resulting in only the Incarnon Form reticle being used. Now it should properly swap between Dual-Wield and Incarnon reticles depending on aim state. 
  • Fixed simultaneous inputs for Transference, opening the pause menu, and opening chat resulting in the Menu screen being aligned to the Warframe instead of the Operator/Drifter.
  • Fixed opening Decree Menu simultaneously with another context action in Duviri (ex: playing Komi) resulting in the Decree Menu overlapping the screen. 
  • Fixed Circuit “Reward Ready to Claim” indicator appearing on top of other UI elements in the Navigation menu. 
  • Fixed the Mod pick-up pop-up overlapping with the Squad panel in-mission. 
  • Fixed the Dual Wield (Glaive + Pistol) reticle not being affected by HUD scale settings. 
  • Fixed Friends list not displaying the correct enemy level and faction (Grineer instead of Murmur) for friends in a Deep Archimedea mission. 
  • Fixed Clients seeing the Incarnon Evolution challenge UI popping up in Duviri for unowned Incarnon Weapons (players cannot evolve these weapons as they do not own them, so the popup was misleading). 
  • Fixed the Squad Equipment menu at times not appearing in Relays, Towns, Maroo’s Bazaar, etc. 
  • Fixed Ash’s Smoke Shadow Augment missing its HUD buff indicator.  
  • Fixed Conservation markers at times not showing the closest target after completing a Capture. 
  • Fixed the Earth Razorback Armada node overlapping with the Orbiter in the Star Chart. 
  • Fixed chat window sometimes moving after joining a mission as Client. 
  • Fixed various controller-specific UI elements in the Upgrade Screen. 
  • Fixed Region Chat’s history not properly updating when returning to the Orbiter. 
  • Fixed reloading reticle remaining on the screen if Voruna’s Ulfrun’s Descent is cast mid-reload. 
  • Fixed cursor being able to leave the Game Window when interacting with the “Review Logs” terminal in the Sanctum Anatomica.
  • Fixed “Reactant Collected” UI tracker lingering in HUD after completing Void Storm and Omni Fissure missions. 
  • Fixed the ability icons overlapping with the stat box in the Arsenal UI. 
  • Fixed Index Mission Progress screen having broken UI elements. 
  • Fixed the Valac Europa node’s Crossfire Faction saying “Grineer VS. Corpus” instead of the intended “Corpus VS. Infested”. 
  • Fixed “Mission Failed” End of Mission screen showing again after exiting Arsenal if they had just returned from aborting/failing a mission. 
  • Fixed Infested Salvage Alerts not informing players how many rounds they have to complete in the UI. 
  • Fixed an issue where the mission results screen wouldn’t open while in the Orbiter when activating the “View Mission Progress” input.
  • Fixed an issue where Melee weapon Unique Trait text would become unreadable in the Arsenal Upgrade screen due to the text overlapping while a Stance Mod is equipped.

FINISHER CHANGES

Unified Finisher Mechanics

Before explaining the changes, let’s define a few terms and basic concepts about Finishers:

  • Mercy Kills: Available on specialty enemies when they reach certain health thresholds.
  • Finishers: Available when a move “opens enemies to finishers”.
  • Ground Finishers: Available after certain effects which knock enemies down. 

All of the above count as Finishers for relevant Mods, Arcanes, Abilities, etc. Mercy Kills differ slightly as they are specific to your Parazon upgrades which do not apply to other Finishers.

In order to make utilizing finishers easier, we have updated how they function to unify their mechanics: 

  • Increased the Finisher context action distance for Finishers from in front or behind from 2m to 3m.
  • Ground finishers are now performed via context action instead of automatically via Melee Attack input. This should allow players to execute Ground Finishers much more reliably.
    • The “Ground Finisher” context action will appear on enemies in range who are open to Ground Finishers.
  • Updated the Mercy Kill context action with unique visuals to clearly distinguish between Mercy Kills and Finishers.
  • Updated the overhead icon displayed on enemies open to non-Mercy Finishers.

Enemy Size Scaling 

We’ve taken strides in reducing how we scale enemies whenever a Finisher is used against them!

By default, Finishers cause enemies larger than your Warframe (ex: Grineer Bombard and Corrupted Gunners). This had the risk of causing some strange visual issues on the enemies that weren’t ideal. 

We’ve audited the contact points between the player and the enemy with all Melee Weapon animations to resolve these graphical sizing mishaps! 

What this looks like is:

  • If a point of contact is present between the player character and an enemy, such as a chokehold or grabbing a limb, enemy scaling will persist.
  • If there is no physical point of contact between the player character and an enemy, the enemy scaling doesn’t occur as it isn’t necessary!

Scaling Fixes: 

  • Fixed an issue where Finishers on Corpus Crewman and Grineer Lancers would stretch their spines. Like an untrained chiropractor. 

ADDITIONS

New Prex Cards 

 

There’s word that several Prex Cards have been strewn about the Kronia Relay on Saturn – help locate them and add these Warframe’s Prex Cards to your collection! 

  • Ember Prex Card
  • Vauban Prex Card
  • Titania Prex Card
  • Garuda Prex Card
  • Protea Prex Card

New Simulacrum Rooms

New Simulacrum Rooms are available for you to take your simulated fights to the next level! 

Similar to the Sanctum Simulacrum room that launched in Dante Unbound, the following rooms allow enemy difficulty to be set 25 levels above the standard maximum. 

 

  • Ambulas Arena Simulacrum – Simulate a battle on your foe’s territory. 
    • Acquired from The Perrin Sequence offerings at max rank. 
  • Moonlit Courtyard Simulacrum – Simulate a battle under the light of Lua. 
    • Acquired from New Loka  offerings at max rank. 
  • Red Veil Temple Simulacrum – Hone your combat skills under the auspices of the Red Veil. 
    • Acquired from Red Veil offerings at max rank. 
  • Zanuka Arena Simulacrum – Stage a battle in your enemy’s arena for deeper insight into their tactics.
    • Acquired from Arbiters of Hexis offerings at max rank. 
  • Orokin Derelict Simulacrum – Simulate a battle inside an Orokin Derelict. 
    • Acquired from Cephalon Suda offerings at max rank. 
  • Grineer Asteroid Simulacrum – Step into your opponent’s territory to devise a strategy for their defeat. 
    • Acquired from Steel Meridian offerings at max rank.
  • Orowyrm Arena Simulacrum – Simulate a battle straight out of Tales of Duviri. 
    • Acquired from Acrithis’ Wares. 

These new Simulacrum Rooms and the Sanctum Simulacrum Room are also tradeable and sellable! This is so that players can trade between one another without having to switch around their Syndicate Pledges/acquire from Loid for Vessel Capillaries. The Citadel room remains untradeable as it is the default, as well as the Ballroom as it is an event-specific reward.

  • Added a separate “Swap Weapons” binding for Railjack.
    • Previously players could unknowingly bind over this functionality as it was not listed in the Key Bindings screen.
  • Added an icon above planets in the Navigation Menu once a player has completed all of its nodes.
    • Both Normal Path and Steel Path track planet completion separately, and have their own unique icons to denote completion!
  • Added a “Fire Manual Trigger Weapons Continuously” setting to the Accessibility menu.
    • Toggling this on will allow you to shoot manual trigger weapons (including Semi, Burst, and Charge Trigger types) continuously on a singular input. 

CHANGES

 

Ceno & Vahd Suit Now Available For Drifter 

Become one with the Ostron as Drifter! The Ceno and Vahd Masks, Pauldrons, Greaves and Apparel have been converted to fit the Drifter and can now be equipped on them. 

Purchasing or crafting any of these customizations will include both the Operator and Drifter variants! For those of you that already own Ceno/Vahd items, the Drifter versions will be added to your inventory upon downloading the update and logging in. 

In-Game Market Change: Operator Suits that can also be used on Drifter now indicate such in their Market screen. It reads “This item provides cosmetics for both Operator and Drifter”. 

 

Line Of Sight Improvements

As a continuation of our efforts to improve LOS systems within Warframe, which have been ongoing since Dante Unbound, we’ve made further strides towards improving how we handle these checks.

From a technical standpoint, we’ve improved the consistency and performance of the underlying LOS systems within the game by handling how we detect unrendered targets, in addition to improvements we’ve made in recent hotfixes. 

Abilities that use LOS checks already have been updated to this improved technology! Additionally, with these improvements, we can now easily shift over any Warframe Ability that relies on LOS checks to be seamlessly migrated to this new, more accurate system, meaning we’re able to act faster on any outlying offenders that may arise. 

To name a few Warframe abilities that benefit from this with Jade Shadows:

  • Gara’s Passive
  • Nyx’s Psychic Bolts
  • Inaros’ Scarab Swarm
  • Wukong’s Primal Fury
  • Gyre’s Rotorswell
  • Styanax’s Axios Javelin (Vortex)
  • Xaku’s Grasp of Lohk
    • This also fixes ragdolled enemies not getting targeted by Grasp of Lohk weapons. 

Deep Archimedea Changes & Fixes

  • As mentioned in Devstream #179, Deep Archimedea and Netracells now award Standing with the Cavia Syndicate. Deep Archimedea will award 15,000 Standing upon completion of the third mission with any modifiers (or none at all!) and Netracells will award 5,000 Standing per completed Netracell. 
  • Reduced the duration reduction of the “Abbreviated Abilities” Personal Modifier from 75% to 50%.
  • Changed how Deep Archimedea’s “Untreatable” Personal Modifier interacts with Health Orbs in the following scenarios:
    • Lavos’ Universal Orbs: Energy can now be gained from these Orbs when picked up, but not Health (as intended with this modifier).  
    • Equilibrium Mod: Energy can now be gained when picking up Health Orbs, but not the other way around (as intended with this modifier). 
      • A “Health Pickup is blocked” HUD pop-up will now appear at the bottom of your screen to help provide more information in the scenarios above.
  • Changed “Unified Purpose”’s description to better explain what this Deviation does: 
    • Now reads: “Enemies can target and destroy Conduits.”
  • Toned down the intensity of Void explosions caused by the “Postmortal Surges” Risk Variable. 
  • Made the following changes and fixes to the “Powerless” Personal Modifier to improve its functionality:
    • Added an icon to the HUD to indicate the required number of kills. When the kill count requirement is met, the icon will disappear.
    • Fixed Powerless blocking Ability effects from other players interacting with their kits.
    • Fixed Powerless preventing players from using Transference.
    • Fixed Powerless not properly applying to Clients.
    • Fixed an issue where Powerless would appear to not countdown following the first mission, causing the player to be unable to finish the Modifier’s requirements to remove its detriment.
    • Fixed Powerless not progressing from Squad kills while in a Necramech.
  • Fixed Clients not receiving Research Points from their selected Individual Parameters equipment if invited by a Host active within a Deep Archimedea Mission.
  • Fixed the HUD buff icon for the “Knifestep Syndrome” Personal Modifier remaining visible regardless of whether or not it is actually active.
  • Fixed an issue where Client’s wouldn’t have their suggested/chosen Deep Archimedea equipment count towards the activities reward track if invited by a Host already in a Deep Archimedea mission.

Assassin Drop Table Changes 

  • Increased (Shadow) Stalker’s drop rate for Despair, Scimitar Engines Blueprint, Hate, War, and Broken War to 11.73% each.
    • Dread’s drop chance has been reduced on both Stalker (64.8%) and Shadow Stalker (41.33%) to compensate.
    • Note: The Drop Chance of rolling a reward from this Drop Table is unchanged (i.e. 50%). 
  • Wolf of Saturn Six now has a guaranteed (100%) Weapon Part drop per kill, increased from 35%. 
    • This drop rate was originally designed for The Wolf of Saturn Six Nightwave Series, where a) all players were marked with his Death Mark and b) he had an increasing chance to spawn in-mission while the Series was live. Now, players farming the Wolf Sledge can only do so via Wolf Beacons, so drop rates have been amended with this in mind. 

Feral/Wild Kubrow Fur Updates

In the Dante Unbound update we updated the fur on Companion Kubrows to give them a more realistic look and feel. To reiterate: 

 

  • Improved lighting and shading response in different environments for better texture resolution. 
  • Improved fur density so that it looks softer and fluffier.
  • Added depth to fur color and shading.

We have applied the same upgrades listed above to the following wild Kubrow-type/adjacent creatures: 

  • Feral Kubrow
  • Drahk 
  • Sentinel Stover
  • Vallis Kubrodon 

General Changes

  • You can now replay the Whispers in the Walls Quest! 
    • To re-experience the trials and tribulations between Loid, Albrecht, the Cavia and the creeping Indifference go to your Codex > Quests > Locate the Whispers in the Wall Quest and select the “Replay Quest” button to begin again. 
  • In order to better manage data, we have added a maximum amount of Adversaries (Kuva Liches and Sisters of Parvos) that can be stored in the Codex’s “Universe” tab. 
    • If a player reaches a total of 150 Adversaries (Converted or Vanquished), they will be prompted to make space in their saved history by deleting entries before confronting a new Adversary. This is accomplished by using the “Relinquish Adversaries” option in the Codex.
    • Please note that any Converted Adversaries will no longer be in your inventory if their history is deleted. This is reflected in the confirmation message given when you attempt to Relinquish an Adversary.
  • We’ve improved the Warframe neck animations so that they no longer turn their head like an owl and distort their head/neck.
  • Improved the responsiveness of holding the Melee Attack input to perform a throw for Melee weapons with ranged attacks (ex: Sigma & Octantis). Pressing and holding the Melee attack input now throws after one swing instead of two. 
    • As a result of this change, it is now easier to activate Tennokai with Glaives in the window it is available. Prior to this change, the second swing could prevent you from hitting Tennokai before the timer ran out. 
    • This also fixes multiple issues with thrown weapons and Tennokai: 
      • Fixed Wolf Sledge not benefitting from Heavy Attack Wind Up Speed Mods or Tennokai’s Wind Up Speed bonus. 
      • Fixed instances where the Wolf Sledge’s Tennokai Heavy Attack would not complete (the animation would halt halfway-through and leave players stuck mid swing until they Melee attacked again). 
      • Fixed an issue where throwing a Glaive manually (ie. by releasing the Melee attack input instead of auto-throwing) would consume and waste Tennokai unnecessarily.
  • Trading Legendary Arcanes now requires you to be Mastery Rank 11. 
    • It’s important to note that only the player trading requires MR 11 and not the receiver. 
      • We needed to address an issue with exploitative Legendary Arcanes farming and ban-evasion account creation used to trade Legendary Arcanes. Other options we experimented with had the risk of innocent players getting caught in the crossfire of the ban-evasion subjects. When we took a look at Trading stats we found that a very small number of players below Mastery Rank 10 trade Legendary Arcanes, and therefore decided to go this route. This is purely a means of deterring the bad actors and ensuring legitimate trading for players. 
  • You can now trigger an early start to Void Armageddon waves by interacting with Exodampers. 
    • The long period between waves was originally added to give players time to set up beforehand, but for some this wait period was not necessary, so we have added a way to expedite the process for those who want to jump right in! 
  • Defense missions will no longer be unnecessarily extended whenever enemies are affected by Nyx’s “Mind Control” or Garuda’s “Blood Altar.” Instead, they’ll work similarly to Revenant’s Thralls, where invulnerable enemies don’t count towards the remaining enemy tally required to progress to the next wave. 
  • We’ve improved enemy spawn logic in Excavation missions to decrease the wait time between completing Excavators.
    • This addresses the player reported issue that it often would take far too long for enemies to spawn when moving from one Excavator to another.
  • Topaz Archon Shards have been changed to grant Shields from enemies hit by Blast Damage to enemies killed with it.
    • The description in-game has always stated “Kills” but this was not actually the case – Shields were being regenerated from enemies hit with Blast Damage. While we understand that this changes the efficacy of the perk and deviates away from what players have been used to, the change was made to avoid photosensitivity issues resulting from Shields breaking and recharging quickly in certain scenarios (ex: Mesa’s Peacemaker Regulators with Blast Damage).
  • Changed the Braton Incarnon Genesis’s Evolution III Perk (On Punch Through Hit: 20% chance for 10% Ammo restored) to give 10% of the Braton’s Maximum Ammo instead of 10% of an Ammo pickup.
    • On an unmodded Braton Prime, this means the Perk will now give 60 Ammo instead of the previous 8 Ammo when it triggers.
  • Updated Market Blueprint descriptions for Warframes, Archwings, Archwing Weapons, Necramechs, and Weapons to more clearly outline the free path to earning them.
    • Descriptions have been standardized to include important details such as:
      • Quest or Mastery Rank requirements
      • Syndicates they are acquired from
      • Specific missions or Planets to farm on
      • Brief instruction on how to acquire necessary keys or currency (ex: Mutalist Alad V Coordinates, Kullervo’s Bane, etc.) 
      • And more!
    • While the Wiki is an invaluable resource for many players, our goal is to increase access to key information in-game as a starting off point. For those looking for more in-depth farming tips, the Wiki, our drop table site, and other community-made resources are king. 
    • Fixed a variety of Warframes and weapons having incorrect or missing Market Blueprint descriptions. 
  • Updated and standardized resource descriptions for a variety of resources, components, keys, and tokens. 
    • Since The Duviri Paradox update introduced the ability to see resource descriptions on-hover in your Foundry – in addition to already being able to Chat Link them – we feel it is especially important that these descriptions include a general overview of how to acquire these items. These are not meant to be comprehensive, but still offer enough detail for players to farm them successfully. 
    • Updated descriptions include (but are not limited to) the following:
      • Necralisk Tokens, Debt-Bonds, and Orokin Matrices
      • Rare Gems requiring specific mining tools
      • Damaged Necramech components
      • Items acquired from Invasion missions
      • Items with special acquisition paths (Anomaly Shards, Kullervo’s Bane, etc. )
      • Dragon Keys
      • Sentient Cores 
      • Variety of items missing planet or node names, and more. 
    • Note: Fishing resources have yet to be updated to this new standard.  
  • Advanced Nosam Cutter can now be used to acquire Rare Orb Vallis Gems (Zodian and Thyst).
    • Now both the Advanced Nosam Cutter and Sunpoint Plasma Drill can be used to mine all rare gems across landscapes. 
    • Also updated rare gem and mining tool descriptions to better communicate these requirements. 
  • The following Mods are no longer eligible to be traded or sold from Inventory. Essentially, they have been given the same treatment as Mentor’s Legacy to prevent players from removing Mods that can only be acquired once. If you have already sold the following Mods, you can submit a ticket to our fantastic Support Team at support.warframe.com
    • Mountain’s Edge Stance Mod
      • Awarded from completing The Duviri Paradox Quest. 
    • Thermia Fracture Rewards – these were already untradeable, we’ve just also made them unsellable from Inventory: 
      • Amalgam Serration 
      • Amalgam Organ Shatter  
      • Amalgam Barrel Diffusion 
      • Amalgam Shotgun Barrage 
    • Daily Tribute Milestone Login Rewards these were already untradeable, we’ve just also made them unsellable from Inventory: 
      • Primed Vigor 
      • Primed Shred 
      • Primed Sure Footed
      • Primed Fury
  • Switching through the different Verse of Dante’s Final Verse will now play the associated video preview for the Verse you have selected instead of looping through the same video for all. 
  • The VFX of Excalibur’s Exalted Blade has had a visual refresh! The energy emanating from the Blade has an all new flow to it. 
  • GI Lighting Changes & Fixes: 
    • Adjusted ambient GI lighting in the Orbiter for better contrast in the lighting. 
      • This also improves the lightning in the Arsenal, which we received feedback on being too dark for the purposes of fashion framing. We have more changes and fixes planned for the next update.
    • Updated GI Lighting in the Helminth room, including improvements to the pond beneath the floor to increase fish visibility.
    • Adjusted lighting throughout the Orbiter to feel more realistic based on direct vs indirect light sources.
    • Updated the lighting on various waters in the Drifter Camp so that the waterfalls aren’t glowing white and blown out at night. Also fixed being unable to see the fog over the landscape when viewing it from the Orbiter window. 
    • Fixed GI lighting shadow issues with Decorations in the Orbiter. 
    • Fixed some indirect lighting in the Orbiter to help alleviate areas that were far too dark. 
  • Synced Last Gap’s controller haptics with the heart beat sound. 
  • Improved the frequency of appearance for the new Albrecht’s Laboratories tiles that were released with Dante Unbound.
  • Updated older Grineer decals to improve resolution and quality.
  • Changed Tenet Diplos to continuously burst fire at already marked targets while aiming and holding the firing input. 
  • Argon Crystals are now automatically waypointed when dropped by enemies or resource containers in-mission. 
  • “Parkour Velocity” mods now affect a few more parkour-related activities:
    • Increases velocity when wall running parallel to the wall
    • Increases velocity when wall jumping away from a wall
    • Increases the instantaneous velocity change when performing a double jump
  • Updated the visual materials on the Dread, Hate, and Despair.
    • This change also made many untintable areas now tintable (notably all of the metal on the Dread).
  • Updated the “From on High” Nightwave Act description to include K-Drives. 
    • It now reads: “Kill 100 grounded enemies while soaring above the Plains of Eidolon, Orb Vallis, or Cambion Drift on your K-Drive or Archwing.”
  • Removed the Kuva Sobek from Conclave eligibility due to not being Conclave balanced. 
  • Updated Lavos’ Valence Formation Augment Mod description for accuracy (the Augment itself has not changed, this is only a description update). 
    • It now reads: “Casting an Ability imbued with extra Elemental Damage applies that Element as a 200% bonus to your weapons with guaranteed Status for 20s.”.
  • Adjusted Ordis’ Camera angle and gave him Idle Animations in the Drifter Camp during the New War Quest.
  • Your Warframe falling into a void while in Transference will no longer cause a screen fade-to-block which deactivates your Warframe’s abilities. 
    • Players often hop into Operator/Drifter mode to traverse gaps, but doing so over a void would reset your Warframe once they hit the teleport volume. If you ever experienced a fade-to-black while Void Slinging over a void, this was what caused it! Now this will no longer happen, provided you are in Transference when your Warframe falls into the teleport volume. 
  • Kuva and Tenet weapons with 58% Elemental Bonus or above will now automatically round that value up to 60%.
    • Players who have existing Tenet and Kuva weapons (including those pending in the Foundry) with 58%+ Valence Bonus will have this value rounded up to 60% upon logging in after downloading the update.
  • Increased the window for players to join an in-progress mission when playing a Star Chart node for the first time. 
    • Previously, the window was much smaller for first-time joiners, to avoid them missing key cutscenes or transmissions that appear at the start of the mission. The unintended result was that many players ended up starting a new session and playing the mission alone.
  • Made a small adjustment to ambient sounds in the Strata Relay. 
  • The Warframe Launcher will now display “Downloading new content” once the download actually starts.
    • Previously it said “Checking for new content” when both checking and downloading the content.
  • Reduced the damage of the Juggernaut’s ranged spine strike. 
    • The amount of Toxin Status Effects it caused could be difficult for newer players to tackle, so we’ve reduced it to make it more manageable. 
  • Updated the Helminth Ability “Expedite Suffering” description for accuracy (the ability itself has not changed, this is only a description update).
    • Now reads: “Condense all Slash and Toxin Status Effects into a single damage instance.”
  • Updated Dante’s Fourth Ability “Final Verse: Tragedy” description for accuracy (the ability itself has not changed, this is only a description update).
    • Now reads: “Two Dark Verses cast in succession attack enemies. Damage Over Time from Slash, Heat and Toxin Status Effects accumulates in a single blast.”
  • Updated the Templar Prime Operator/Drifter Transference Suit Collection to clarify its usability by both the Operator and Drifter.
    • Now reads: “The dress uniform worn with pride by Harrow’s faithful legions. Includes the full set for both Operator and Drifter.”
  • Updated Nezha’s “Divine Retribution” Augment description for accuracy (the Augment itself has not changed, this is only a description update).
    • Now reads: “Status Effects spread to all speared enemies. Spear explosions scale by 1.5x of remaining Slash, Toxin and Heat Status Effects. Base Radius is 14m.”
  • Changed the Update Screen to use release date (year and month) instead of the update numbers for the listed Updates. 

TOP FIXES

  • Fixed Dante’s passive only applying to enemies who were scanned in-mission. Now it should apply to enemies who were fully scanned before the mission started. 
  • Fixed Sevagoth’s Shadow not benefiting from the Shadow Haze Augment Mod on enemies inflicted with Death’s Harvest. 
  • Fixed being unable to Auto-Melee as Chroma while Spectral Scream is active. 
  • Fixed held items (Datamass for example) causing visibility issues with the Grimoire equipped. 
    • The item will now be hidden when aiming and/or firing with the Grimoire to prevent it from blocking view. 
  • Fixed being unable to throw Voidrig’s Necraweb Grenade. 
  • Fixed the “Loid” fast travel option in the pause menu taking you to the front of the doors to the Sanctum Anatomica instead of directly to him. 
  • Fixed the Host’s invisibility option for Warframe abilities (Semi-Cloak or Glow-Cloak) overriding Clients’ invisibility option. 
  • Fixed Melee Crescendo stacks vanishing after Host migration for Ash players that collected them with Blade Storm while holding a Primary Weapon. 
  • Fixed Host and Client going back to completely different areas when the Host aborts, but still remaining in the same squad (e.g. Host returns to Obiter, while Client returns to Cetus). 
  • Fixed an issue where one player using Transference would close the Ability menu for everybody in the squad. 
  • Fixed being unable to use Last Gasp if the “Ability Menu” controller binding has been replaced with “Activate Selected Power”.
  • Fixed the alt-fire not throwing discs in Duviri Enigma Puzzles if the player has a Melee weapon equipped. 
  • Fixed the Derivator Crewman’s energy dome showing through Grendel when feasted, and partially limiting his movement. 
  • Fixed being unable to cast/cancel abilities or attack as Wukong after ledge grabbing during Cloud Walker’s cast animation.  
  • Fixed loss of function (invisible weapons, being unable to reload, etc.) as Wukong after hitting a teleport volume while in Cloud Walker. 
  • Fixed loss of function as Valkyr after entering a Nullifier Bubble during Hysteria.
  • Fixed Saryn’s Toxic Lash affecting Clients damage numbers by displaying the wrong damage values (UI only issue). 
  • Fixed loss of function when attempting to leave Submersible Archwing in the Grineer Sealab Tileset. 
  • Fixed Shade’s Ghost Mod randomly deactivating while surrounded by enemies who are in range.
    • This was because Shade would choose one target to trigger invisibility, meaning the effect would end once they were killed. Now this Mod’s effect is no longer tied to one target, so the invisibility will persist so long as players do not engage in behaviors that will disrupt it. 
  • Fixed Zephyr’s Tail Wind not deactivating while the player is in Bleedout. 
  • Fixed cases of players receiving a different rotation reward than what was displayed in-mission. 
  • Fixed a case of the Total Eclipse Augment offering a permanent Eclipse buff for Clients if another player also casts Eclipse. 
  • Fixed being able to dislodge Fragmented enemies from Garuda’s Blood Altar. 
  • Fixed function loss for remaining player(s) if both Host and another Client leave at the end of a round in The Index.
  • Fixed Mirage’s Hall of Mirrors clones not shooting Incarnon Form weapons unless they had hit enemies before the Incarnon Form was triggered.
  • Fixed being unable to progress in Void Armageddon Bounties after completing the Bounty requirements. 
    • Prior to this fix, players would be forced the extract after completing the Bounty requirements. Since this is an endless mission type we want to give players the option to stay and complete more Rounds if they wish. 
  • Fixed the Temporal Prime Ephemera causing Focus Badges to be oversized.

CHANGES

  • Mobility-type abilities (i.e. Void Sling, Nezha’s Blazing Chakram, Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance, Ash’s Teleport, etc.) can now be used any many times as you like (Energy permitting) during the Ropalolyst fight, with the exception of the wire traversing portion of Phase 1. 
    • Previously, the Ropalolyst would use its Nullifying Scream immediately after a mobility-type ability was used.  
    • Now, the Ropalolyst will only use its Nullifying Scream after a mobility-type ability is used while attempting to bypass the wires. 
      • There was a bug with Nullifying Scream that made it inconsistent and unpredictable. It would allow every 3rd or 5th cast of a mobility-type ability and then nullify completely, instead of doing so after the first cast. So we decided to fix the issue by allowing these abilities to be used freely during the fight and only trigger Nullifying Scream when cast during the wire stage. This is so that we can maintain the intended challenge and design of that Phase. 
  • Fixed the cooldown for Void Sling not ticking down while playing as a Warframe nullified by Ropalolyst’s Nullifying Scream. 
    • Previously, the cooldown would stop while playing as a Warframe and would only continue while playing as the Operator. 
    • Now, the cooldown ticks down while in Warframe and Operator, so that you can Void Sling faster while switching between the two.
  • Removed the nullifying field around enemy Necramechs. 
    • In addition to abilities being nullified unpredictably, there were no visual indicators for this field which made it extremely difficult to counter/dodge, so we’ve just removed it entirely. This only affected a few specific Abilities, including Void Sling, so we felt it was no longer necessary to maintain. 
  • “Scattered Justice” Augment Mod is now compatible with the Kuva Hek.
    • When we first made the decision to prevent this Mod from being equipped on the Kuva Hek many years ago, we felt it was the right decision for the time. Our goal was to keep the Kuva Hek in check and avoid it being significantly more powerful than all other shotguns, which would have been limiting to the all-important player choice in the Arsenal. Revisiting this decision now in 2024, there are other sufficient weapons and upgrades to make the Kuva Hek & Scattered Justice a good choice but not the ONLY choice. Note that Scattered Justice remains incompatible with the Vaykor Hek because it already has a built in “Justice” effect.
  • “The Price Of Freedom” (Free one Captured Solaris using a Granum Crown) Nightwave Act will now only appear if you’ve completed The Deadlock Protocol Quest – since Granum Crowns are not accessible until then. 
  • Updated the music in the in-game Market to make it more ambient and added full length tracks in place of the short music snippets. 
  • Added correlating icons whenever one of the 14 main Damage or Status Effects are mentioned in Nightwave Act descriptions to increase readability. 
  • Updated the names of the Pride Glyphs and Displays.

OPTIMIZATIONS

  • Made a number of optimizations to the Friends, Clan and Alliance members lists. 
  • Fixed performance issues caused by extremely intense blue/white VFX taking over the screen during the Kaithe phase of the Steel Path Orowyrm fight. 

FIXES

  • Fixed completing Omnia Fissure missions not counting towards the “Unlock Relic” Nightwave Act. 
  • Fixed loss of function when casting Dante’s Noctua ability after completing the Kaithe stage of the Steel Path Orowyrm fight. 
  • Fixed players with Overguard being affected by the Gruzzling’s slow AOE. 
  • Fixed the VFX from the “Devil’s Bargain” Risk Variable in Deep Archimedea being extremely intense and reducing visibility. 
  • Fixed the Corrupted Jackal in the Undercroft disappearing if all players are downed at the same time during the fight, causing a halt in Undercroft/Circuit progress. 
  • Fixed player getting zapped by the Negate Mod equipped on their Wyrm Sentinel every 5 seconds after opening Arsenal in a Relay/Town. 
  • Fixed Inaros’ Negation Armor Augment Mod causing a loss of function when put into his Undying Passive state.  
  • Fixed Nataruk’s Magazine stat (and by relation, its secondary Reload Time stat) not being visible in the Arsenal. 
  • Fixed Wisp’s Reservoir Mote counter disappearing from the HUD after switching to and from Operator. 
  • Fixed player Necramechs spawning through the floor in Albrecht’s Laboratories instead of from the dispenser. 
  • Fixed the Credit amount displayed in the End Of Mission screen for Index missions being greater than what was actually earned. 
  • Fixed being unable to Chat Link a majority of the Emotes. 
    • There are still more to be fixed (notably the “Handshake” Emote) – we will be addressing these in a future Hotfix/Update. 
  • Fixed several map holes in the Orokin Tower tileset. 
  • Fixed the “Kill X Enemies” Nightwave Act title appearing as a file path. 
  • Fixed a crash when attempting to dismiss a Railjack Crew Member.

  • Fixed getting pulled out of the Void Angel’s Ethereal Plane as Protea in Zariman missions if Temporal Anchor is cast before entering it. 
  • Fixed the Bronco “Dizzying Rounds” Augment Mod enabling finishers on enemies that are not intended to be vulnerable to finishers (i.e. Acolytes, Whispers and Demolishers). 
  • Fixed issue where a Client selecting a Relic using the controller binding for “Equip For Mission” would unintentionally start the Void Fissure mission before everyone has equipped a Relic.

Warframe – Ver. 35.5.8

  • Release date: April 24th 2024 (North America, Europe) / April 25th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

New Deep Archimedea Mission Risk Variables & Deviations

The following have been added to the pool of possible Mission Risk Variables & Deviations that can appear in the weekly Deep Archimedea reset. 
 

New Mission Risk Variables: 

  • Bold Venture: Enemies deal -15% Damage and take +15% Damage but gain +15% Movement Speed, Attack Speed, and Fire Rate.
  • Devil’s Bargain: Allies within 4m of slain enemies gain +25% Fire Rate at the cost of -50% Ammo Efficiency.
  • Entanglement: Allies within 4m of slain enemies endure reduced Movement Speed and Parkour Velocity.
  • Commanding Culverins: Rogue Culverins equip weapons that deal 5x Damage to Overguard and Necramechs.
  • Explosive Potential: Rupturing Fragments replace Shuffling Fragments.
  • Alluring Arcocanids: As Rogue Arcocanids charge attacks, they pull Warframes toward them.

New Mission Deviation: 

  • Unified Purpose (Disruption): All enemies target Conduits. 
    • This has replaced Parasitic Conduits (the Conduit’s timer is paused unless a player is within 10m; more players in range will accelerate the timer. Conduits drain Shields). While originally listed in the Dante Unbound Patch Notes, we felt it didn’t quite fit the core Disruption gameplay. In its stead, we have added Unified Purpose. 

General Deep Archimedea Changes & Fixes: 

  • Reduced Vampyric Liminus’ Energy Drain from 50 to 25 per second. 
  • Fixed the “Sealer Armor” Exterminate Mission Deviation (enemies take 90% less damage from non-weak point hits), causing Rogue Culverins to not self-destruct after destroying their two weak points.
  • Fixed Necraloid’s monologue after backing out of the screen being heard regardless of where you are in the Sanctum Anatomica. Certified yapper. 
  • Fixed the Fractured Armor Personal Modifier (casting an ability reduces armor by 10% for 10s) not having a HUD buff indicator. 

Changes: 

  • The Butcher’s Revelry Ghoulsaw Stance Mod is now available in Hok’s Wares in Cetus for 20k Ostron Standing at Rank 3 (Trusted).
    • We also fixed the Mods (including the Butcher’s Revelry Stance Mod) in the Ghoul Rictus’ drop tables having a 0% drop chance.
  • The Steel Path Incursion mission on-hover tooltip in the Star Chart now shows the Steel Essence reward. 

Optimizations: 

  • Fixed Dante’s Tragedy VFX affecting performance when repeatedly cast. 

Fixes: 

  • Fixed Eximus kills not counting towards Ruvox’s Evolution II challenge (kill 8 Eximus with this weapon’s Incarnon Transmutation) for Clients. 
  • Fixed a bug where Clients would stop auto-meleeing to abruptly block when another player in the squad uses Transference. 
    • As mentioned on Devshorts 13, we are continuing to investigate other auto-melee issues. 
  • Fixed case where Gruzzling (in Armatus Disruption mission) may spawn below the floor in a specific staircase area of Albrecht’s Laboratories. 
  • Fixed the “Perform Synthesis for Cephalon Simaris” Uranus Junction task not being marked as complete for players who had made it past the stage in The New Strange Quest that requires synthesis scanning before the Dante Unbound Update. 
    • This task was added in the Dante Unbound update, but for players who had performed Synthesis before it launched it was not retroactively completed. 
  • Fixed the Ghoulsaw not completely blocking damage from raytraced projectiles (Heavy Gunners for example) or Melee attacks. 
  • Fixed parrying attacks with Melee causing the “reset on Status Effect” Riven Mod challenges to fail. 
  • Fixed Clients with the Rauta gaining Combo Count by shooting teammates. 
  • Fixed the damage increase from Xata’s Whisper unintentionally applying twice on the Phenmor and Laetum’s Devouring Attrition perk and the Felarx’s Devastating Attrition perk. 
  • Fixed being unable to hover over Kitgun stats to view secondary stats in the assembly screens. 
  • Fixed Excalibur Umbra with the Warrior’s Rest Augment Mod (which makes it so that he no longer fights independently but increases Ability Strength) regaining sentience during Transference after successfully reviving with Last Gasp.
  • Fixed the Arbiters of Hexis Operative in Defense missions falling into the player spawn elevator and becoming invulnerable in the Grineer Shipyards tileset. 
    • Now when they enter this area they will be teleported out. 
  • Fixed the glass on Gara (base and Prime), Astilla, and Fusilai being very bright in GI lighting areas. 
    • The glass from Gara’s abilities still seems to be affected by this – we are investigating. 
  • Fixed Dante’s Wordwarden missing some minor explosion VFX. 
  • Fixed being able to enter Dante’s Leverian without having completed the Whispers in the Walls Quest requirement via the “Leverian” button in the Dante’s Collection in-game Market screen. 
  • Fixed players who are replaying the Vox Solaris Quest getting the “Client/host data mismatch. Please verify your cache using the Launcher” error upon attempting to matchmake into the Profit Taker Bounty. 
    • As noted in Hotfix 35.5.7, players who are replaying the Quest will not see the context action to start the Bounty as a means of preventing matchmaking issues from occurring. 
  • Fixed Clients being unable to load into Maroo’s Bazaar and disconnecting from a squad where all members do not have Cross Platform Save enabled.
  • Fixed the skirt on the Gyre Kuvael Monarch Skin not lifting while using her Rotorswell ability. 
  • Fixed several offset issues with the TennoCon 2024 Syandana (notably when equipped on Excalibur and many of his skins). 
  • Fixed a lack of collision in certain areas of the Corpus-Outpost Index Arena. 
  • Fixed Inaros’ Negation Armor Augment Mod description using  “Scarab Armor” instead of “Scarab Shell”. 
  • Fixed more cases of errors caused by joining a Profit Taker Bounty while the Vox Solaris Quest (specifically a replay) is active.  
  • Fixed a texture bug with Yareli’s Batomorpha Helmet.  
  • Fixed a script error post-Host migration related to Gruzzling spawning.

Warframe – Ver. 35.5.7

  • Release date: April 17th 2024 (North America, Europe) / April 18th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

Deep Archimedea Changes

Changes to address feedback on Deep Archimedea Mirror Defense missions: 
The following changes were made based on feedback received from players about the difficulty of Mirror Defense missions in Deep Archimedea, but they apply across Warframe. 

  • Made the following changes to The Hollow Vein:  
    • Greatly reduced how often it hits Defense targets with its ranged laser attack. 
      • Before: Due to Defense targets being much larger than players, they were applying several hit ticks in a row onto these targets resulting in massive damage.
      • Now: it will only hit Defense targets once with its laser attack. 
    • Changed its AoE attack targeting logic to improve the frequency of when it is used. 
      • Before: Once the attack started and it was near something like a Defense target, it would trigger and linger indefinitely. 
      • Now: The attack will only trigger when players are nearby and will be canceled when players are no longer within its radius. 
    • Fixed a possible issue where Hollow Vein could theoretically make allies, Defense targets, and players hit by its laser attack permanently vulnerable to friendly fire. 
  • Changed the amount that Citrine’s Remnants (Tyana Pass) and Vosphene Glyphs (Munio) heal their respective Mirror Defense target. 
    • Before: Collecting the required amount of the aforementioned pickups would restore 5,000 Health. 
    • Now: Collecting enough pickups will restore 3,500 Health plus 15% of the Defense target’s Max Health, ensuring the pickups scale better as levels increase while still maintaining a level of difficulty.
  • The Auricle and Vitreum Defense targets now have a 75% Damage Reduction against Rogue Voidrig and Bonewidow weapons and abilities. 

General Deep Archimedea Changes & Fixes:

  • Unowned items will now be indicated as such in the Deep Archimedea Loadout Individual Parameter UI – they will now be marked with a “!” icon and will have the “NOT OWNED” tag in the tooltip. 
    • The tag will only appear if you do not own the specific item shown or any of its variants. 
  • In an effort to better communicate to players that they have enabled Elite Archimedea, we have made it more obvious in the Deep Archimedea screen by adding the Elite Archimedea logo and an “Elite Archimedea Active” indicator above the “Begin Research” button after unlocking with Search Pulses. 
  • Added a pulse VFX to the “Unlock” and “Begin Research” (specifically when Elite Archimedea is enabled) buttons. 
  • Vampyric Liminus’ Health/Energy drain can now affect spawned allies (Specters, Abilities that spawn NPC units, etc.) and vehicles (Necramechs and Merulina). 
  • Fixed the Host’s “Gear Embargo” Personal Modifier applying to the whole squad even if you did not select to play with the Modifier. 
  • Fixed Vampyric Liminus’ being eligible to be marked by the Alchemical Invulnerability Mission Deviation. They are invulnerable and cannot be affected by the Amphora. This was caused by a bug that allowed Vampyric Liminus’ to take hits after a stun/stagger Status Effect.
  • Fixed broken icon appearing for the Hek in the Individual Parameters Loadout UI. 
  • Fixed a script error caused by Vampiric Liminus and Host migration. 
  • Fixed Necraloid’s sassy remarks about you closing out the Deep Archimedea screen playing before you’ve even unlocked the week with Search Pulses. Now, he’ll only share his true feelings once you’ve committed and then backed out of said commitment.

Line of Sight (LoS) Changes & Fixes

As mentioned in our last Hotfix 35.5.6, the team continues to address and assess player reports of further LoS issues. While the quality and consistency of LoS checks has improved significantly, we’re still not 100% satisfied and sometimes the results are still unpredictable. The team is investigating LoS checks at large occasionally having odd interactions with terrain, enemies, etc. which is causing inconsistencies in the checks. We are looking to have this resolved in the next Cert update (more info on what that means here). 

For today, we have made LoS improvements to the following Warframe abilities:  

  • Hildryn’s Aegis Storm (Raycast Check) 
    • In Hotfix 35.5.6, we made it so that Aegis Storm performs LoS checks from the floor where Hildryn is hovering, but that could be limiting based on her positioning.  So, we’ve changed it so that the checks occur from Hildryn to enemies that are in LoS and within the ability’s range. 
  • Caliban’s Sentient Wrath (Rendered Check) 
    • In addition to rendered checking, we’ve also made improvements to address issues where LoS checks would fail on clearly visible enemies that are behind terrain. 
  • Garuda’s Blood Altar 
    • The LoS checks for Blood Altar remains the same (similar to raycast it does a sweep to identify if there are obstructions along the path to the target), but we’ve added the ability for Blood Altar to perform an additional jump to help clear small obstructions since LoS checks could fail on targets that were clearly visible but partially behind terrain. 
  • Hydroid’s Plunder (Rendered Check) 
    • In addition to rendered checking, it is also no longer FOV dependent to prevent issues where low FOV settings would cause Hydroid’s body to obstruct LoS. 
  • Ember’s Inferno (Rendered Check) 
    • In addition to rendered checking, it is also no longer FOV dependent, which was causing issues where enemies outside of FOV (low FOV settings) were not considered in the checks. 
  • Fixed Mag’s Pull ability pulling enemies from all directions instead of in a cone directly in front of her as intended. 
    • This was accidentally introduced with Hotfix 35.5.6 as part of our efforts to improve LoS check consistency with Pull. The established behavior for many years has been that Pull only works in the direction you are looking, so we’ve returned it to that intended state but with the new and improved LoS check logic.
  • Fixed the following Warframe abilities not ignoring terrain for enemies that are up to 5 meters from the ability starting point: 
    • Dante’s Dark Verse
    • Garuda’s Seeking Talons
    • Mag’s Magnetize explosion (specifically on HOLD cast) 

Changes: 

  • Made audio mix adjustments for the Amphor pickup, aim and throw sounds in Alchemy missions. This should help these sounds be more audible during tense encounters.

Optimization:

  • Fixed Clients experiencing performance issues (FPS dropping to 15) during Void Mirror objectives in Duviri. 

Fixes: 

  • Fixed Inaros’ Sandstorm not picking up enemies directly below him. 
  • Fixed Nyx’s “Pacifying Bolts” Augment Mod not throwing an additional 3 force Psychic Bolts as intended. 
  • Fixed fully ranked Requiem Mods not ranking down after a successful Parazon stabbing a Kuva Lich/Sister of Parvos.  
  • Fixed Inaros’ Sandstorm VFX persisting indefinitely if canceled/recast repeatedly. 
  • Fixed Ostrons in Cetus during the “Void Sling to break Veil” objective of The New War Quest having the “Stealth Attack” prompt. 
  • Fixed players getting knocked down every 5 seconds after leaving the Arsenal in a town/Relay when the Negate Mod is equipped on their Wyrm. 
  • Fixed the Nexus Fur Pattern having orange/green mottled skin under the fur. 
  • Fixed the Arsenal UI for Necramechs only showing their Melee attack stats. 
  • Fixed the Onos’ magazine always using its default color regardless of the color picked by the player. 
  • Fixed the Onos’ Evolution upgrade screen only showing a portion of the weapon and not the whole thing. 
  • Fixed Wukong’s Celestial Twin indicating it needs ammo while using the Nataruk (silly monkey the Nataruk has infinite ammo). 
  • Fixed issue with Valkyr Prime not holding Nataruk’s arrow in her hand while her Noble Animation Set is equipped. 
  • Fixed scaling issues with Yareli’s Batomorpha Helmet. 
  • Fixed enemies (notably The Anatomizer and Necramite Drones) in Albrecht’s Laboratories being susceptible to getting stuck on terrain. 
  • Fixed the Deadlock Protocol Quest requirements in the Codex missing mention of completion of the Saturn Junction. 
  • Fixed being unable to close out of the Mission overview screen using the same binding you opened it with in Index and Conclave missions. 
  • Fixed Shield Charger’s Russian description not displaying Regen correctly.
  • Fixes more cases of errors caused by joining a Profit Taker Bounty while the Vox Solaris Quest (specifically a replay) is active.  
    • To prevent further issues, the context action to speak to begin Profit Taker Bounties is now disabled while the Vox Solaris Quest is active. 
  • Fixed a script error caused by clicking on Cephalon Simaris in the Syndicates management screen. 
  • Fixed a script error in the Magus Aggress Arcane if the player was killed/respawned after initiating a Heavy Attack. 
  • Fixed a script error when viewing stats for Itzal’s Penumbra ability.
  • Fixed a script error when Thrax Legatus is killed during its beam attack. 
  • Fixed a script error in Qorvex’s Chyrinka Pillar ability. 
  • Fixed a script error when picking up Citrine’s Remnants in the Tyana Pass Mirror Defense mission. 
  • Fixed a script error when enemies attempt to spawn into the Undercroft. 
  • Fixed a script error that could occur after Host migration while Undercroft portal is active in Duviri. 
  • Fixes towards script errors that could occur when Host migrates after completing Chest objectives in Duviri. 

Warframe – Ver. 35.5.6

  • Release date: April 10th 2024 (North America, Europe) / April 11th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

Dante Changes

As promised last week, we have made more adjustments to Dante as part of our continued effort to address player feedback regarding the balance changes made in Hotfix 35.5.3

Dark Verse:

  • Made Dark Verse’s Line of Sight (LoS) checks more reliable to bring it in line with Tragedy. 
    • Following the improvements to Tragedy’s LoS last week, we’ve applied the same logic to Dark Verse to ensure enemies within LoS are properly considered to prevent cases where being only partially visible would not trigger the check. This is part of the greater LoS improvements detailed in the “Line of Sight Improvements” section below. 

Pageflight: 

  • Returned the Status Damage increase applied to enemies hit by its Paragrimms. 
    • At Max Rank, the Status Damage Increase is 50% (scaleable with Ability Strength).
    • This was an undocumented/unintended element of Pageflight at release that we decided to remove, but in doing so, we broke our promise of “not touching damage” with Dante, so we’ve returned it, and it now has proper documentation in the ability UI!

Tragedy: 

  • Because of the return of Pageflight’s Status Damage increase, we have added a 1 billion damage cap to Tragedy, purely as a preventative measure against game errors. This is our highest damage cap in the game, a testament to how powerful Pageflight and Tragedy can be with the right setup. We will monitor feedback and performance over a longer time span before reviewing again.

 

Updated Overguard Interactions With Vex Armor, Rage, & Hunter Adrenaline  

As announced last week, we’ve changed how Overguard interacts with effects that benefit from receiving damage on Warframe to make it more co-op friendly. Specifically, Chroma’s Vex Armor and the Rage and Hunter Adrenaline Mods. The conversations regarding Dante’s abilities with Overguard became a driving factor to look at these interactions and find ways in which we can make them work to benefit co-op play. Overall, these changes aim to create a harmonious arrangement between the often unpredictable Overguard gains from allies and Vex Armor, Rage, and Hunter Adrenaline.

The following changes are in addition to their existing functionality. 

Chroma’s Vex Armor

Previously, Overguard would prevent Chroma from benefiting from his Vex Armor buffs (since it blocked damage on Health and Shields). So, we’ve made the following change to allow players to receive the buffs through all sources of Overguard: 

Now: Melee kills now grant a 15% Armor increase and ranged kills a 15% increase to Weapon Damage (doubled to 30% for ranged weak point kills). 

This has the additional perk of self-sufficiency where players have far more control over the buffs, instead of having to rely on the unpredictability of damage dealt by enemies. 

Rage and Hunter Adrenaline 

Previously, Overguard granted by allies could prevent you from gaining Energy from these Mods (since it blocked damage dealt to Health). So, in an effort to create a more co-op friendly experience between the two, we’ve made the following change:  

Now, Rage and Hunter Adrenaline can convert the Damage on Overguard granted by allies to Energy while Shields are inactive. 

More specifically, they will trigger when the last source of Overguard originates from an ally (includes Warframe Specters with Overguard abilities spawned by allies). This allows shield-less Warframes, such as Inaros and Nidus, to be able to regenerate Energy via these Mods when they would have previously been blocked by Overguard granted by allies.

Here are the exact stat details:

  • Rage: +40% (same effectiveness as the base functionality) of Damage on Overguard granted by allies to Energy while Shields are inactive. 
  • Hunter Adrenaline: +45% (same effectiveness as the base functionality) of Damage on Overguard granted by allies to Energy while Shields are inactive.  

NOTE: Warframes that grant themselves Overguard, like Kullervo or Rhino, will not be able to trigger Rage and Hunter Adrenaline from their own Overguard. Only Overguard granted by allies is eligible because this is the only interaction that is potentially disruptive to your build (i.e your ally puts Overguard onto your Rage-Build Nidus). 

Necramech Rage and Kinetic Diversion (Archwing) have also had the same changes applied to them with Overguard interactions: 

  • Necramech Rage: Convert +15% of Damage on Overguard gained from allies to Energy. 
  • Kinetic Diversion: Convert +40% of Damage on Overguard gained from allies to Energy. 

General Overguard Change:

  • Frost’s Icy Avalanche Augment Mod will now grant Overguard to non-player allies in radius (i.e. Sentinels, Companions, Specters). 

Line Of Sight (Los) Improvements 

As announced last week, we have revisited LoS checks on other Warframes to bring them in line with the new and improved version of Dante’s LoS added in Hotfix 35.5.4. 

To reiterate, there are now two variations of LoS checking: 

  1. The first type of check sees if any part of the enemy has been drawn on the screen, so that any part of an enemy, big or small, is considered visible/eligible to pass the LoS check.
  2. The second type of check is for enemies that are not on screen. We now check for LoS to the enemy’s head, torso, and feet instead of only to their body which will increase reliability there as well.

For Abilities that hit enemies in a full circle around you, both checks are used: Once to evaluate enemies that you can see and then a second sweep to check targets to the sides and behind you that aren’t visible.
 

The following Warframe abilities have received the aforementioned improvements: 

  • Excalibur’s Radial Blind (Rendered Check)
  • Excalibur Umbra’s Radial Howl (Rendered Check)
  • Dante’s Dark Verse (Rendered Check)
  • Helminth’s Sickening Pulse (Rendered Check)
  • Hildryn’s Pillage (Rendered Check)
  • Mag’s Pull (Rendered Check)
  • Nova’s Null Star Augment (Rendered Check)
  • Hildryn’s Aegis Storm (Raycast Check from floor where Hildryn is hovering)
  • Khora’s Whipclaw (Raycast Checks from multiple points around the whip’s impact)
  • Qorvex’s Chyrinka Pillar (Raycast Checks from top and center of pillar)

The above changes also tangentially fixes the issue of low FOV preventing LoS checks from occurring (this was most reported for Dante’s Dark Verse, Hildryn’s Pillage, Khora’s Whipclaw, Mirage’s Prism, and Mag’s Pull). 
 

More LoS Improvements in Future Update: 
The following Warframe abilities will be receiving the same treatment in a future update, since they require Cert update (more information on what this means here) in order to launch across all platforms. 

  • Ember’s Fire Blast
  • Gyre’s Rotorswell
  • Vauban’s Tesla Bank Augment
    • While a Cert update is required to apply the new LoS checks onto Vauban’s Tesla bank, we have in the meantime fixed the AoE from the mines getting blocked by non-static objects.The Augment was preventing the mines from behaving as they do in their non-augmented state where they check for cover for static objects (level geometry), so we’ve rectified that so that it is subject to the same checks as Tesla Nervos AoE.
  • Zephyr’s Tailwind (Dive Bomb) 

As written directly above, we are not done with improving LoS and will continue to assess where further improvements can be made. New reports related to LoS will be investigated for future Hotfixes/Updates. Thank you, Tenno! 
 

Nezha’s Divine Retribution Change

Divine Spears now have a set base radius of 14m (scaleable with Ability Range) instead of the previous 50% Ability Range reduction while the Augment is equipped. 

After reading player feedback, reducing Divine Spears’ range by 50% rendered the Augment quite limiting and carved heavily into Mod Slot space to accommodate for it. So we’ve instead given it a base Radius to keep it within reason, but also to bring it back to a much more manageable level without dipping into extremes (as it was prior to the changes). 

 

Arca Titron “Slam Capacity” Trait Changes

Arca Titron was an outlier to the Slam Attack rework in Dante Unbound, as its Unique Trait allowed for ludicrous damage numbers. We aimed to change its damage output to a more reasonable level, but as a result made the weapon too underpowered. 

To address this, we’ve made the following changes to the Titron based on the community feedback we received after the adjustments we made to the buff in last week’s Hotfix: 

  • Reduced the max charges from 10 to 5. 
    • We wanted to make it easier for players to achieve max charges so that they can benefit from the Slam Damage and Range increase more often. 
  • We’ve also adjusted the Slam Damage and Range per charge increase to accommodate for the change of max charges: 
    • Increased the Slam Damage increase per charge to +250% (was +100%) for a total of +1,250% (was +1,000%). 
    • Increased the Slam Range increase per charge to 2m (was 1m) for a total of 10m (same as before!). 
  • Fixed Slam Capacity’s guaranteed Electricity Status proc to Slam Attack not occurring. 

Deep Archimedea Fixes

  • Fixed Void Angel scaling in difficulty based on the squad’s total death count, instead of for the downed individual as intended. 
  • Fixed still earning Reward Points from matching Loadout after swapping off of the options during the mission vote countdown timer. 
  • Fixed being able to awaken multiple Void Angels at once after multiple teammates have fallen and need to be revived. 
  • Fixed Clients being unable to see the “Alchemical Invulnerability” elemental icons on enemies in Alchemy missions. 
  • Fixed being unable to complete Deep Archimedea missions due to Stalker spawning in. 
    • This was due to Stalker spawning on the other side of locked doors, preventing players from completing the mission. We’ve disabled Stalker spawning into (including Stalker Beacon) Albrecht’s Laboratories missions to prevent this and similar issues from reoccurring in Deep Archimedea and the base missions. 
  • Fixed several script errors caused by the Loadout options (notably when Host migration occurs). 
  • Fixed a typo in the description for the “Barbed Glyphs” Mirror Defense mission Deviation. 
  • Fixed unlocalized text appearing in the Deep Archimedea screen for Loadout options. 

General Fixes 

  • Fixed players being unable to matchmake for Omnia Fissure missions located on the Zariman or Albrecht’s Laboratories. 
  • Fixed the possibility of Distressed Pipes in Alchemy missions spawning under the floor in the new tiles that were released with Dante Unbound – making them untargetable unless with Slam Attacks. 
  • Fixed being unable to trade Mods in the Dojo immediately after Ranking them up. 
  • Fixed Residual Arcanes not triggering while riding Merulina. 
  • Fixed Akjara having strange shot patterning that leads to poor Accuracy. 
    • With no added Multishot, the bug was causing it to shoot its projectiles as a line to the right of the point of aim. With Multishot, they would shoot as a line to the left of the point of aim. Now, it should correctly shoot its projectiles in an averaged radius around the point of aim. 
  • Fixed loss of function after casting Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance while dual wielding a Secondary Weapon with a Glaive Melee. 
  • Fixed Onos’ Evolution V not unlocking after completing a Solo mission with an Incarnon Weapon equipped in every slot (as required) if the player had an Exalted Weapon active while extracting. 
  • Fixed destroyed Murmur Sarcophages not always counting towards the “Find X Murmur Sarcophages” Cavia Bounty Challenge. 
  • Fixed Lohk Surges not spawning reliably to complete the “Find and Activate X Lohk Surges” Cavia Bounty Challenge. 
  • Fixed the Heart of Deimos Quest not progressing if the player reaches the Requiem Cipher door while the “Kill Infested” objective is still active. 
    • Now, the door to the Requiem Cipher will remain locked until after defeating all the Infested enemies to prevent this issue from recurring. 
  • Fixed Styanax’s Tharros Strike infused onto another Warframe via Helminth not having any visible projectiles. 
  • Fixed Mirage’s Hall of Mirror Clones obstructing player’s view (instead of fading out when in reticle) after casting Eclipse with the Total Eclipse Augment Mod. 
  • Fixed being able to have more than 4 players in a Railjack mission. 
  • Fixed Warframe with cyclable abilities missing stats for each of their effects in the ability screen. Specifically:
    • Wisp’s Reservoirs
    • Titania’s Tribute
    • Chroma’s Spectral Scream
    • Xaku’s The Lost
    • Vauban’s Minelayer
  • Fixed the UI backtracking after opening the Archon Shards screen via the Arsenal and quickly selecting the “Archon Shards” button in the Helminth screen. 
  • Fixed Challenge descriptions box in Profile appearing black when switching tabs. 
  • Fixed the glass material on Lavos’ vials and Helmet being too bright in GI lighting areas. 
  • Fixed the Vehicles Arsenal (for Archwing, K-Drive and Necramech) having much darker lighting than the standard Arsenal in the Orbiter. 
  • Fixed a crash related to Yareli’s Merulina getting destroyed after spawning. 
  • Fixed a crash caused by Host migration occurring in a secret part of Albrecht’s Laboratories. 
  • Fixed the Chains of Harrow Quest “Equip Kinetic Siphon Traps” prompt missing instructions on how to acquire them. 
  • Fixed Valkyr’s Carnivex Skin causing her to hold Bows awkwardly in one of her idle animations. 
  • Fixed Onos appearing on Yareli’s left arm instead of the right as intended while using the Loyal Merulina Augment Mod. 
  • Fixed the Onos having too much flickering in its beam motion. 
  • Fixed the Narmer Faction name not being localized in the mission node popup. 
  • Fixed information pop ups in the Foundry appearing on items that don’t have the crafting components being shown. 
  • Fixed environment flickering issues in one of the Albrecht’s Laboratories tiles. 
  • Fixed a gap in one of the doorways in the Albrecht’s Laboratories tileset. 
  • Fixed being unable to destroy the grates in certain areas of the Albrecht’s Laboratories tileset. 
  • Fixed several script errors in Cavia Bounties. 

Warframe – Ver. 35.5.5

  • Release date: April 5th 2024 (North America, Europe) / April 6th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

The last Hotfix unintentionally changed this week’s Deep Archimedea missions, modifiers, deviations and risk variables, so we’ve reverted it back to its previous state. It will properly refresh as scheduled on Monday at 0:00 UTC. You will not lose any Research Points in the revert. 

Fixes: 

  • More fixes towards Conduits in Armatus Disruption missions having glowing blue orbs. 

Warframe – Ver. 35.5.4

  • Release date: April 5th 2024 (North America, Europe) / April 6th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

Dante Changes & Fixes 

Tragedy Line of Sight (LoS) Changes & Fixes: 
As a result of yesterday’s Hotfix and the understandable feedback we’re receiving, we wanted to address the clearly broken state of Dante’s Tragedy LoS checks. It was not implemented to our standards, and that is on us. We know that this has been an unpopular change, which was greatly aggravated by the fact that a) it launched in a defective state and b) that LoS checks in general suffer from broad inconsistencies. 

Our first step is improving how LoS checks work with Tragedy to fix the inconsistencies and ineffectiveness. We’ll use our learnings from this incident to review other cases of LoS check issues for a future update.  

  • Improved Tragedy’s Line of Sight checks per enemy to be much more forgiving and reliable to fix the many cases players reported of not being able to hit enemies at all. Now, it considers not only the enemies that Dante sees but also those visible on screen/via the camera—so any part of them, big or small, is considered visible/eligible to pass the LoS check.  
    • To break that down a bit deeper: 
      •  Enemies positioned directly behind or in front of Dante 
        • We have made it so that enemies within 5 meters of Dante are automatically considered visible; no LoS checks are required. 
      • Enemies barely in cover or who had just run to cover
      • Enemies positioned at a different height to Dante where they are still partially in view 
    • Enemies that are not caught by the “Is the enemy on screen?” check (behind or to the sides of you) use an improved target detection where we now check for line of sight to the target’s head, torso, and feet. Previously we only checked for their torso. This will improve the reliability of hitting enemies even when they are not directly on the screen.
  • Fixed Tragedy not hitting/affecting ragdolled enemies that are in LoS.
    • This was a particularly brutal bug considering the number of abilities, weapons, and other effects that can cause enemies to be ragdolled. This issue also contributed to the many scenarios in which Tragedy did not apply at all. 

With the changes above, this is where Tragedy’s LoS should have been originally. As mentioned above, we are also taking what we’ve learned from Dante and will be making general improvements to LoS checks as a whole in a future update. We provided details on how we plan to do that in the post we made today, but in short we will be making LoS checks across the board far more reliable than they are currently. 

Light Verse and Triumph Overguard Increases: 
The second pillar of feedback we want to address is our changes to Dante’s Overguard capabilities. We went too deep with the initial decrease and are, therefore, bumping up the Overguard gain from Light Verse and Triumph to a middle ground between their pre- and post-balance states.   

  • Increased the Overguard gained from Light Verse from 250 to 350 at Max Rank.
  • Increased the Overguard gained from Triumph from 2000 to 3000 at Max Rank.

We knew we could tackle LoS improvements and Overguard bumps today without hesitation. However, this is just the tip of the feedback iceberg, and we know there’s more that’s been shared beyond what we can accomplish today regarding both LoS, Overguard, and more. So we’ll continue to digest and evaluate feedback, and we encourage you to keep sharing in the dedicated Dante Feedback subforum.

We value your input and how it helps us iterate and improve together. Thank you, Tenno.
 

Deep Archimedea Fixes: 

  • Fixed Clients being unable to interact with Void Angels to revive fallen Host for the second time in a mission due to the context action missing. 
  • Fixed the Loadout options resetting daily instead of weekly (at usual reset time) as intended. 
    • All conditions for Deep Archimedia are on a weekly reset, so the Loadout Modifiers follow this standard. 
  • Fixed the message to defeat the Void Angels to revive downed players lingering on screen for Clients. 
  • Fixed [PH] tag appearing in the additional Search Pulses tooltip in the Netracell screen. 
  • Fixed a script error that could occur between missions. 

Fixes: 

  • Fixed a crash caused by the “Complete an Exterminate mission in 6 minutes” Cavia Bounty challenge. 
  • Fixed the Void Angel in the Angels of the Zariman Quest, as well as those in Void Armageddon missions, not having an objective marker.
  • Fixed the lighting in the interior of the Orbiter (not on Drifter Camp) changing from bright to dark as you move around when the Dynamic Lighting or Sun Shadows settings are  disabled. 
  • Fixes towards some surface artifacting occurring in the Drifter Camp.
  • Fixed the splash sound FX from throwing Amphors at Crucibles being heard throughout the level. 
  • Fixed given Grimoire to friendly NPC (i.e. Rescue Target, etc.) causing Secondary ammo pickups to stick to the player. 
  • Fixed Blueprints that have crafting costs that exceed a player’s owned Credits appearing at the top of the Foundry list when sorted by “State”. 
  • Fixed glowing blue orbs appearing on the Conduits in the Armatus Disruption mission. 
  • Fixed broken lighting throughout the Grineer Sealabs Assasination (Titania) tileset. 
  • Fixed [PH] tag appearing in the TennoGuide when instructed to visit Onkko after completing The War Within Quest. 
  • Fixed some hitching when loading into Venus missions. 
  • Fixed crashes caused by Keyglyphs being reassigned to players after Host migration. 
  • Fixed a script error in Isolation Vault Bounties. 

Warframe – Ver. 35.5.3 (Deep Archimedea)

  • Release date: April 4th 2024 (North America, Europe) / April 5th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

NEW GAME MODE: DEEP ARCHIMEDEA 

Embark on perilous research expeditions in Albrecht’s Laboratories! Deep Archimedea is a weekly challenge with three missions that must be completed in a single sequence. Rewards are given based on a number of factors, with the core principle being the higher the risk the higher the potential reward. Read on to learn more!

Before we get into the nitty gritty here, we’re excited to get Deep Archimedea into your hands and will watch for feedback as players engage in this challenging gamemode.

Please use our dedicated Bug and Feedback Subforums now that this mode is live!

Requirements

  • Completed the Whispers in the Walls Quest 
  • Rank 5 with the Cavia Syndicate 
    • Upon hitting Rank 5, a special transmission from Necraloid will play, directing you to him in the Sanctum Anatomica for Deep Archimedea. If you were already Rank 5 before the update, when you load into the Sanctum Anatomica it will play automatically and Necraloid will be accessible there to begin Deep Archimedea. 

Difficulty Level 
Deep Archimedea has an extremely high difficulty level and is designed to really put you and your Arsenal to the test.

Enemy Levels: 

  • Normal: 250 – 275 
  • Elite Archimedea: 375-400 (more information on Elite Archimedea in its dedicated section below)

NOTE ON LOADOUT RESTRICTION: In addition to a variety of difficulty modifiers, there are no opportunities to change your Loadout in between missions. Meaning the Loadout you start Deep Archimedea with is the Loadout you will use throughout all three missions.

While it can be attempted solo, we highly recommend you go into Deep Archimedea with a Squad that has carefully prepared their Loadouts and is ready to take on the challenges ahead. 
 

Where & How To Access

Deep Archimedea begins at Necraloid in the Sanctum Anatomica! Find him stationed on the second level of the Sanctum Anatomica. 

 

How To Begin

The following simplifies how to jump into Deep Archimedea in three steps, but the sections that follow go into much greater detail on what you can expect in preparation for the missions ahead. 

1. Interact with Necraloid to open the Deep Archimedea screen & use Search Pulses to unlock: 

 

Players can exchange 2 of their 5 weekly Netracell Search Pulses to access the week’s Deep Archimedea. Doing so gives you unlimited chances to play Deep Archimedea missions, with each reward tier being earned once before each weekly reset on Monday @ 0:00 UTC. 

 

You can view and interact with the Deep Archimedea screen prior to unlocking access each week, but you won’t be able to start the missions until you have sacrificed your Netracell Search Pulses.
 

Additional Search Pulses for week of Deep Archimedea’s launch: 
We have given players an additional 5 Netracell Search Pulses for this week with Deep Archimedea’s release to ensure anyone meeting the requirements can participate in Deep Archimedea for its debut! These are in addition to the usual 5 weekly Pulses, so 10 in total if you haven’t used any yet on Netracells this week. These additional Pulses will expire at the next reset on Monday, April 8th @ 0:00 UTC. 

2. Select Individual Parameters (if any) 
You have the option to select Individual Parameters which will be applied to all three missions – these increase the overall difficulty in exchange for Research Points, which can unlock Reward Pools. Learn more about unlocking Deep Archimedea rewards in the “Research Points & Rewards” section further down. These Parameters are not required to begin Deep Archimedea, should you not be up to the extra challenge. 

Individual Parameters consist of Loadout Modifiers, Personal Modifiers and Elite Archimedea – we cover each of these in detail in their own dedicated sections below. 

3. Select the “Begin Research” button
Doing so will begin the mission countdown. Enter the Laboratories to start the missions with all of the parameters you had activated. Good luck, Tenno! 

Mission Restrictions 

Deep Archimedea missions, similar to Netracells, have the following restrictions on by default: 

Empowered Enemies: 

  • Enemies have their Health and Shields increased by 100% and an additional 50% for each squad member, up to a maximum of 300%. 
  • Increased chance of Eximus. 

Respawn Restrictions: 

  • No Self Revive: Self-reviving is disabled. Instead, 30s after a Tenno has been slain, a dormant Void Angel bearing the glyph of the fallen Tenno, will appear in the mission . Awaken and defeat the Angel to revive the dead Tenno. Each subsequent Void Angel will be much stronger.
    • These Void Angels will only have one health bar and do not include the Ethereal Void Angel stage to defeat them. 
    • Known issue: Clients unable to interact with Void Angels twice in a single mission to revive fallen Host – we are looking to have this fixed hopefully by next Hotfix! 
  • Last Gasp Penalty: Activating Last Gasp Focus ability reduces the timer by 2 seconds. 
  • Bleedout Shortens: The bleedout timer shortens after each revive, to a minimum of 5 seconds.
  • Mortis Strikes: After being dead for 3 minutes you will incur a Mortis Strike. After 3 Mortis Strikes you will not receive any more rewards for this run. A timer will be displayed while you are dead to track time until your next Mortis Strike.
    • All mission rewards earned before receiving 3 Mortis Strikes will be retained, including mission completion rewards.
      • Ex: if you received your 3rd strike in Mission 3, you would still retain earned rewards from Mission 1 and 2. 
    • The Mortis Strike timer only begins once a player’s bleed out timer expires and they have fully died. 
    • The Mortis Strike timer accumulates while a player is dead, awaiting revival. The counter is cumulative and does not reset upon revives, so try to stay alive, Tenno! 

Consumables Restrictions: 

  • Cooldown Increase: Each type of Restore has a 3 minute cooldown timer applied. This cooldown affects all sizes of Restore type. 

Individual Parameters

There are two kinds of Individual Parameters that can be selected by the player: Loadout and Personal Modifiers. 

Enabling any Individual Parameter increases potential Research Points by one for all three missions (totalling 3 Research Points per Parameter) in exchange for making these already difficult encounters even deadlier. Increasing your Research Points can unlock additional Reward Pools. We cover Research Points in more detail in the “Research Points & Rewards” section.  

Loadout 
These Parameters are applied based on your Loadout equipment. Match your Arsenal Loadout to any of the Warframes, Primary Weapons, Secondary Weapons, or Melee Weapons listed in the Deep Archimedea screen to increase your Research Points by one Point per equipment per mission. 

In order to activate any of the Loadout parameters, players must change their equipment in the Arsenal. Matching Warframes, Primaries, Secondaries, and Melee weapons will activate their correlating parameters automatically. Deactivate them by changing your equipment to something other than what’s listed. 
 

 

Loadout parameters reset weekly Monday at 0:00 UTC.  

Personal Modifiers
These Modifiers affect players directly, providing a challenge in exchange for increased Research Points. These are applied individually, allowing a player to increase the challenge for themselves without affecting their teammates.

In order to activate/deactivate any of the Personal Modifiers, simply select them in the Deep Archimedea screen. 
 

 

Here is the list of all of the possible Personal Modifiers: 

  • Gear Embargo: Gear cannot be used.
  • Powerless: All Abilities are disabled until you kill 50 enemies. 
  • Secondary Wounds: Gain 1 Puncture Status Effect every time you take damage.
  • Lethargic Shields: Shield recharge delay increased 500%
  • Ammo Deficit: Ammo restored by drops and gear is reduced 75%
  • Fractured Armor: Casting an ability reduces armor by 10% for 10s. 
  • Untreatable: Pickups do not heal, and Health Orbs cannot be picked up  
  • Abbreviated Abilities: Ability durations reduced by 75%.
  • Concussive Drain: Taking health damage also consumes 5% of max energy per hit.
  • Transference Distortion: Transference into Operator and Drifter is blocked.
  • Terminal Velocity: You do 0 damage while not moving.
  • Framecurse Syndrome: Activating an Ability inflicts 50 damage upon you.
  • Knifestep Syndrome:  Lose 2 Health when moving. Jumping pauses the effect.
  • Energy Exhaustion: Lose 2 Energy per second for each enemy within 10 meters of you.
  • Ammo Scarcity: Ammo depletes steadily. Battery weapons recharge slowly.
  • Exposure Curse: Shields are removed. 
  • Sanguine Syndrome: Every time you take damage, you also suffer a Bleed Status Effect.
  • Vampyric Syndrome: Lose Health every second. Killing enemies restores Health.
  • Conductive: Take Electrical damage every few seconds.

Mission Deviations & Risk Variables 

Each Deep Archimedea mission has its own Deviation and Risk Variable – modifiers which make these missions substantially more difficult. Each individual Elite Archimedea mission also has their own additional Risk Variable to contend with.

 

Deviations 
Deviations live up to their name – they deviate from the bounds of a standard mission type, forcing new strategies to adapt to their conditions. They are variations of mission elements you may already be familiar with, designed to keep even the most experienced Tenno on their toes. 

Here is the list of all of the possible Deviations:

  • Necramech Influx: Necramechs appear with greater frequency.
  • Fissure Cascade: Fissures rip into the mission, causing the Enemy Level to go up by 1 every 10s. Destroy them to stop the level from increasing further.
  • Damage Link: Enemies within 10m of each other form a Damage Linked group. Any damage done to an individual is distributed evenly to the entire linked group.
  • Sealed Armor: Enemies take 90% less damage from non-weak point hits.
    • Weak points will be highlighted with this Deviation active. 
  • Parasitic Towers (Survival): Life Support Towers only activate after 20 enemies have been killed within a 15m radius of them. 
  • Hostile Support (Survival): The Life Support Tower delivery system is disabled. Necramechs spawn every 90 seconds, and drop 6 Life Support Modules when killed.
  • Hazardous Areas (Survival): Activate Life Support Towers to clear Hazardous Areas for your squad.
  • Hazardous Goods (Alchemy): Amphors will inflict their associated elemental damage while being carried.
  • Alchemical Invulnerability (Alchemy): 10% of enemies are equipped with an impervious Elemental Barrier that can only be destroyed by an Amphor of the corresponding element.
  • Eximus Amphora (Alchemy): Eximus units always drop Amphor but they are the only units that drop them.
  • Eroding Senses (Mirror Defense): The Auricle and Vitreum take damage over time, collecting the required Vosphene Glyphs will halt the degradation and partially heal them.
  • Glyph Inflation (Mirror Defense): The security system requires twice as much Vosphene Glyphs to activate. 
  • Glyph Trap (Mirror Defense): Some Vosphene Glyphs are booby trapped with a portal that Teleports those that touch it 250m away. After the portal is revealed it lasts 45s.
  • Radioactive Breakdown (Mirror Defense): All enemies are invulnerable and can only take damage when they are inflicted with Radiation Status. Chryrinka Pillars appear randomly and inflict Radiation Status.
  • Barbed Glyphs (Mirror Defense): Each Glyph inflicts a small amount of damage when collected.
  • Coordinated Front (Assassination): Eximus units support The Fragmented Tide and its final form. 
  • Relentless Tide (Assassination): The Fragmented Tide never stops attacking.
  • Angelic Cohort (Assassination): Void Angels fight alongside the final Fragmented form.
  • The Fragmented Two (Assassination): Face two Fragmented forms in the final battle.
  • Engorged Gruzzlings (Disruption): All Gruzzlings are Eximus. 
  • Parasitic Conduits (Disruption): A Conduit’s timer is paused unless a player is within 10m, more players in range will accelerate the timer. Conduits will slowly drain the shields of any players in range.
  • Double Demolishers (Disruption): Two Necramech Demolishers will attack any Conduit, but their health is reduced.

Risk Variables 
Risk Variables are more focused on enemies and weapons, designed to make the endless waves of enemies more merciless than ever before. Tenno will want to check Risk Variables before diving into a Deep Archimedea to ensure they’re prepared for whatever lies in front of them. 

Here is a list of all of the possible Risk Variables:

  • Hostile Regeneration: Enemy health slowly regenerates.
  • Vampyric Liminus: Slow moving, immortal, Duviri Liminus drain Health and Energy from allies who get too close. 
    • While immortal, they are affected by CC effects. They also deal increased damage to players with Overguard. 
  • Adaptive Aberrations: Enemies gain resistance to Elemental Damage that has been inflicted upon them. Resistance is lost if no damage is taken from that element for 5s.
  • Bolstered Belligerents: All enemies have Overguard equal to 50% of their max health.
  • Ranged Engagements: Only enemies with ranged attacks are present.
  • Close Quarters: Only enemies with melee attacks are present.
  • Fortified Foes: Guardian Eximus units may be encountered, including Guardian Eximus Necramechs.
  • Myopic Munitions: Enemies will only take damage if a player is within 15m of them.
  • Postmortal Surges: Slain enemies burst with Void energy.
  • Elemental Potency: Enemies deal +100% Elemental Damage and have +85% resistance to Elemental Damage.
  • Eximus Reinforcements: Additional Eximus units will be deployed.

Additional Endless Mission (Survival & Mirror Defense) Mechanic : Reduce Mission Timer 
Summoning and defeating a Rogue Necramech Eximus unit will reduce the mission timer by 45 seconds of Survival and Mirror Defense missions. To summon a Rogue Necramech, locate the dispensers that Rogue Culverins use to summon Rogue Necramechs in Albrecht’s Laboratories missions. Interact with the terminal there to summon a Rogue Necramech unit. There is a 50% chance that the unit spawned is an Eximus! Once you have used a terminal, all Necramech dispensers are put on a 60 second cooldown. 
 

Elite Archimedea

For the truly courageous Tenno, Elite Archimedea is standard Deep Archimedea cranked up to 11, with increased enemy levels and an additional Risk Variable per mission.

How to unlock and Enable: 
Completing all 3 Deep Archimedea missions with a Research Points of 25 or higher will unlock Elite Archimedea permanently. From the Deep Archimedea screen, it’s as easy as selecting the “Elite Archimedea” button to enable it.

 

Research Points & Rewards

Players can earn up to 5 Rewards (plus resources) each week from Deep Archimedea, depending on their total Research Points. 3 Rewards are available from Deep Archimedea, while all 5 are available from Elite Archimedea should players be up to the challenge. 

Rewards from each Reward Pool can only be earned once per week, so the only way to earn more rewards is to increase your possible Research Points before heading into your missions. 

Research Points:
Research Points determine the rewards that are granted at the end of each successful Deep Archimedea mission. They can be increased by enabling Individual Parameters and Elite Archimedea. 

 

While Deep Archimedea can be attempted an unlimited number of times in a week, Research Points do not stack across attempts. In other words, each attempt is independent from the previous. Rewards are earned based on the singular attempt at hand, not the sum of your attempts over the week.  

  • Completing all 3 missions of a Deep Archimedea awards 3 Research Points.
  • Completing all 3 missions of an Elite Archimedea awards 10 additional Research Points, for a total of 13.
    • Elite Archimedea is unlocked after completing a Deep Archimedea with at least 25 Research Points, which requires players to complete Deep Archimedea with all Individual Parameters enabled.
  • Each Research Modifier adds an additional 1 Research Point per mission, for a maximum of 24 bonus Research Points earned by completing all 3 missions with every Individual Parameter enabled. 
  • The maximum number of Research Points possible is 37 (13 from Elite Archimedea, 24 from Individual Parameters). 

Reward Pools: 
Enabling Elite Archimedea and all Individual Parameters gives a maximum of 37 Research Points for unlocking rewards! There are five Reward Pools that can be unlocked via Research Points, and three additional resource bundles. These Reward Pools have their drop tables spread across three different tiers: Silver, Gold, and Diamond.  

 

Silver Rewards
These rewards share their reward pool with Netracells, so obtaining both Silver Rewards is just like you had used your 2 Search Pulses to take on 2 Netracells. 

NOTE: The Netracell Drop Tables were changed with Dante Unbound, so the following list is the newly updated list of rewards. There’s a full breakdown of what exactly changed in the “Netracell Drop Table Changes” section of the Dante Unbound patch notes.

  • Crimson Archon Shard 
  • Azure Archon Shard 
  • Amber Archon Shard 
  • Melee Arcane Adapter 
  • Melee Crescendo
  • Melee Duplicate 
  • Tauforged Crimson Archon Shard 
  • Tauforged Azure Archon Shard 
  • Tauforged Amber Archon Shard 

Silver Rewards are available at 5 and 10 Research Points, which means the minimum to receive them is:

  • 5 Research Points: Complete all 3 Deep Archimedea missions with 1 Individual Parameter enabled. 
  • 10 Research Points: Complete Deep Archimedea with at least 3 Individual Parameters or Elite Archimedea enabled. 

Entrati Lanthorn Bundle
Completing a Deep Archimedea run with at least 15 Research Points will earn you a bundle of 15 Entrati Lanthorns.

  • 15 Research Points: Complete Deep Archimedea with at least 4 Individual Parameters or Elite Archimedea enabled.

Gold Rewards
These rewards contain the same items as the Silver Rewards, but with improved drop chances for the rarest rewards! The chance of receiving a Melee Arcane Adapter is reduced, resulting in an increase to the Melee Crescendo and Melee Duplicate Arcane drop rates. Additionally, Archon Shards are twice as likely to be Tauforged compared to the Silver Rewards!

NOTE: The Netracell Drop Tables were changed with Dante Unbound, so the following list is the newly updated list of rewards. There’s a full breakdown of what exactly changed in the “Netracell Drop Table Changes” section of the Dante Unbound patch notes.

  • Crimson Archon Shard 
  • Azure Archon Shard 
  • Amber Archon Shard 
  • Melee Arcane Adapter 
  • Melee Crescendo
  • Melee Duplicate 
  • Tauforged Crimson Archon Shard 
  • Tauforged Azure Archon Shard

Dante Balance Changes

In the time that Dante has been available to play, he has quickly become a fan favorite! We recognize how much of a blast it’s been to play this quill-wielding Leverian wizard, which is something we have kept at the forefront while determining the following balance changes. These changes are not meant to suspend the fun factor but to maintain our philosophy on why we nerf things in Warframe (automated play, disruptive to squad, or overly dominant). 

After much review and feedback consideration, we recognized that it’s not the damage Dante can deal that needed to be addressed, but rather his accumulation of Overguard. We still believe Dante is in a strong place even with these adjustments, as our goal from the start was never to nerf him into the ground. However, finding balance isn’t found simply in the nerfs, but also in the buffs! So we have also given a little bit of love to Wordwarden and Triumph. 

  • Increased Wordwarden’s weapon damage on warded allies from 30% to 50%. 
    • The Wordwarden felt a bit lackluster in comparison to the rest of Dante’s abilities, so we gave it a boost to encourage players to experiment and engage with it more. 
  • Final Verse’s “Tragedy” now only affects enemies within Line of Sight.
    • This felt like the most reasonable change to Tragedy since it could be cast back to back without much forethought on positioning. So to make it a more active ability, enemies must now be within range in your Line of Sight to be impacted by it. 
  • Reduced the amount of Overguard gained from Final Verse’s “Triumph” from 5000 to 2000 at Max Rank. 
    • For a bit of compensation, we increased Triumph’s base Overguard Regeneration per second from 50 to 100 at Max Rank (can still be modified with Ability Strength). 
  • Reduced the amount of Overguard gained from Light Verse from 500 to 250 at Max Rank (can still be modified with Ability Strength). 
  • Added Overguard Cap stat to Final Verse’s “Triumph” description to make it clear that there are cases where the cap for Light Verse and Triumph can be different (ex: when using the Precision Intensify Mod). 
  • Final Verse’s “Pageflight” no longer applies increased Status Effect Damage to enemies hit by its Paragrimms. 
    • This was an undocumented element of Pageflight, but for the sake of transparency we wanted to inform you of its removal. We believe its removal strikes a better balance and synergy with Status Damage inflicted by Tragedy.
    • NOTE: This is not a removal of the Status Vulnerability added to enemies by Pageflight. We are only removing the unintended additional damage taken from Status Effects. 

You can continue to share your feedback in the dedicated Dante Feedback sub-forum.

General Dante Changes & Fixes: 

  • Updated Dante’s Final Verse ability videos to better showcase the custom HUD.
  • Made improvements to cast animations for Dante’s Final Verse to allow for smoother Ability chaining. 
  • Fixed the Archon Intensify Mod triggering upon casts of Dante’s Light Verse regardless if players were actually healed. Now Light Verse will only trigger Archon Intensify if Health is restored. 
  • Fixed Tome skins being upside down when equipped on Noctua.
  • Fixed Dante Specter casting Final Verse interfering with the player’s custom Dante HUD that displays which Verses are active. 
  • Fixed several crashes caused by shooting an enemy with Dante’s Noctua while riding Kaithe or K-Drive. 
  • Fixed being unable to shoot weapons after casting Fractured Blast (infused onto Dante via Helminth) at the end of Final Verse’s “Triumph”. 
  • Fixed bug where Melee weapon would briefly appear at the end of each of Dante’s ability casts if it was equipped in hand. 

GI Lighting Changes & Fixes: 

  • Increased the overall luminosity of the Orbiter to better account for shadows and player’s Decorations.
  • Improved lighting in the Orbiter Arsenal by balancing the shadows so that they aren’t so dominant. 
    • This was a prevalent feedback point from players as it was causing colors to appear darker than what is seen in the color palette, making it rather difficult to fashionframe. 
  • Improved lighting in the walkway of the Transference room to fix the lighting looking blocky.
  • Improved the lightning when transitioning between the Landing Craft and the Orbiter in the Drifter Camp. 
  • Fixed broken lighting on the portal between the Landing Craft and the Orbiter in the Drifter Camp. 
  • Fixed issues with reflections and gaps in the GI Lighting volumes. 
  • Fixed reflection volume line appearing in the glass materials in the Helminth room. 
  • Fixed Decorations with reflective glass-like surfaces showing up as bright low-resolution circles. 
  • Fixed the Arsenal, Transference Room, and Helminth Room not being lit properly when Dynamic Lighting is disabled in settings. 
  • Fixed several Decorations having very little lighting on them when the Graphics Preset is set to low, notably: 
    • Prex Cards
    • Argon Pegmatite
    • Agkani Stone
    • Ludoplex 
  • Fixed issues of GI lighting volumes clipping through into other levels in the Albrecht’s Laboratories tileset. 
  • Fixed the water surface in the Helminth room having an unnatural blue tint caused by GI lighting. 

Arca Triton’s “Slam Capacitor” Buff Changes & Fixes: 

With the changes we made to Slam Attacks in the Dante Unbound Update, the Arcan Triton in particular benefitted from the overall buff to Slam Attacks thanks to its Unique Trait “Slam Capacitor.” Since Slam Attacks are now entirely Radial Damage, scale with Mods, and have a 2x Multiplier applied across all Melee weapons, Slam Attacking with the Arca Triton was leading to ludicrous damage numbers (even reaching into the billions). 

With that in mind, we’ve made the following two changes to bring it back to a more balanced state:  

1. Changed Slam Capacitor’s Slam Damage buff from multiplicative to additive. 

  • Before: Each Slam Capacitor charge multiplied base Slam Damage by 2 up to a max of 10 charges, which would total out to a 1024x multiplier. A combination of the multiplier at max and the buffs we made to Slam Attacks allowed players to ramp up to those unruly damage numbers in no time. 
  • Now: Each Slam Capacitor charge additively stacks the base Slam Damage up to a max of 10 charges. For comparison sake, it calculates similarly to the Seismic Wave Mod, but at max charges grants a +1000% damage Slam Damage increase.

2. Changed Slam Capacitor’s charge duration from 20 seconds to infinite. 

  • Before: Charges expired after 20 seconds unless they were refreshed by killing enemies or using them.  
  • Now: Charges are now stored indefinitely, meaning you can use them at any point without having to constantly refresh them. 

While we were investigating the Arca Triton for the above changes, we found other elements that we can change/fix: 

  • Slam Attacks performed in Stance Combos for the Arca Triton no longer consume Slam Capacitor charges.
    • They were always ineligible to receive the buff in the first place, which meant they were consuming charges without any benefit. So now, you can continue to perform your Combos without worrying about the charges being consumed accidentally. 
  • Fixed an issue where one player doing a Slam Attack with the Arca Triton would clear everyone else’s Arca Triton charges in the Squad. 

Missed Notes from Update 35.5.0:
Observant Tenno may have noticed some Abilities are no longer interacting with Crowd Control immune foes the same way. This is due to a change that went out with Dante Unbound, but was unfortunately missed in Patch Notes. These particular interactions fell outside of the intended design of CC immunity, so we have removed these outliers to restore expected behaviors. 

Enemies with Crowd Control immunity (ex: Overguard) have had the following interactions removed: 

  • Frost’s Ice Wave Impedance Augment (specifically the frozen trail that slows them)
  • Rhino’s Stomp (slow effect)
  • Primary Obstruct (weapon jamming)
  • Exodia Epidemic (enemy suspension)
  • Zenurik Temporal Drag (slow effect)
  • Wisp’s Breach Surge (blind)
  • Halikar (disarm)
  • Mesa’s Muzzle Flash (blind)
  • Proboscis Cernos (stun and pull)
  • Mag’s Counter Pulse Augment (robotics disabling and disarm)
  • Mag’s Fracturing Crush Augment (immobilization) 
  • Malicious Code (immobilization) 

Player Overguard Changes:

  • Players with Overguard will no longer be pulled towards Trauma Clamps in the Undercroft. 

Additions:

  • Added a “listen” context action in Dante’s Leverian for those who have already picked up his Prex Card.
  • This allows players to re-listen to Drusus’ dialogue that was triggered upon picking up the Prex!

Changes:

  • Doubled the Reactant drop rate in Void Cascade Omnia Fissure missions. 
    • We were receiving reports that it was taking a long time to crack Relics due to low drop rates, so we’ve increased it to alleviate the issue.
  • Inaros can now cancel Sandstorm with a Melee attack!
  • Casting Yareli’s Surging Blades will no longer root you in place. 
    • Aquablades already received this change with Dante Unbound, but now her Augmented version also received this treatment. 
  • While the “Divine Retribution” Augment Mod is equipped, the base range of Nezha’s Divine Spears is reduced by 50% (at all Mod Ranks).
    • We didn’t want to change the Mod in a way that would alter the functionality that makes it so effective, so we instead added a range reduction to keep its power within a reasonable level. 
  • Enemies put to sleep by Aero Set Mods are now open to Melee Finishers. 
  • Changed the Polarity of the Dreamer’s Bond Aura Mod from Madurai to Universal, as promised in the Whispers in the Walls: 35.1 Update where it was introduced! 
    • What this means is that it will increase Mod capacity regardless of the Polarity of the Aura slot. 
    • Since this Aura Mod is awarded from completing the Earth to Venus Junction, we wanted to make it that much more new player friendly and useful across Warframes. 
  • Enemies that are already in a ragdoll state will no longer be impaled by Ruvox’s Heavy Slam Void Spikes.
    • This fixes several scenarios in which enemies could be insta-killed from a combination of the Void Spikes and other abilities with ragdoll effects (such as Nezha’s Divine Spears or Hydroid’s Tentacle Swarm).
  • Onos Changes & Fixes: 
    • Increased Impaler Ferocity’s damage buff from +10% to +200% for 10 seconds. 
      • This is a fixed amount and does not stack up to 10x like the previous “+10% up to 10x stacks”. 
    • Increased Swift Deliverance’s Projectile Speed buff from +30% to +50%. 
      • We also fixed an issue where this buff was only being applied to while aiming. 
    • Fixed the “Sequential Skullbuster” Evolution perk not resetting its consecutive headshot stacks after missing a hit on a new enemy. 
    • Fixes to the Onos’ Incarnon Form Projectile ring and shot trail VFX positioning. 
    • Fixed a floating mesh lingering from the Onos while in Incarnon Form after swapping between it with the “Show when Holstered” option is toggled on. 
    • Fixed the Onos’ transition to/from Incarnon sound FX being out of sync with the animation. 
    • Fixed the Onos’ holster position being on the thigh instead of on the hand.
    • Fixed the Onos not being visible while riding K-Drive/Merulina. 
  • Clarified Chroma’s Guardian Armor Augment Mod description to specify “squadmates” instead of “allies” since it only affects player controlled characters. 
    • It now reads: “Chroma’s Health takes 50% of damage dealt to squadmates within Affinity Range. Squad kills restore 5% of his Health over 3s and increases Vex Armor duration by 1s”. 
  • Increased the amount of Affinity gained from killing Rogue Bonewidow Eximus to match other Eximus units. 
  • Updated the Incarnon Evolution descriptions to provide more instructions about accessing Incarnon Evolution Challenges.
    • Now reads: “Challenge complete. Select Upgrade to unlock the next challenge.” 
  • Updated Inaros’ Ability preview videos to accurately showcase his rework. 

Fixes:

  • Fixed issue that could cause players to matchmake into the incorrect Cavia/Holdfasts Bounty difficulty (selecting Steel Path but loading into Normal). 
  • Fixed Glaives failing to throw while airborne if players held down jump while attempting their throw.
  • Fixed Clients being able to earn Bounty completion rewards for Cavia Mirror Defense Bounties if they leave the mission after only one wave. 
  • Fixed Qorvex losing Disometric Guard stacks every 5 seconds by Status Effect procs caused by the game thinking that he was being inflicted by a slowing Status. 
  • Fixed a combination of Protea’s Dispensary and Onos’ Incarnon Form causing Primary Weapons to exceed their Maximum Ammo amount. 
  • Fixed ability stats in the Upgrade screen not updating to show modified Energy cost. 
  • Fixed Banshee’s Sonic Boom ability stripping armor without the Augment equipped. 
  • Fixed the “Incarnon ready” sound FX playing when swapping to/from an Incarnon Form weapon or Transferencing back to your Warframe with an Incarnon Form weapon equipped.
  • Fixed using Transference to return to Warframe while capturing a Conservation animal causing a loss of function and inability to complete the Conservation. 
  • Fixed Caliban’s Fusion Strike visual radius fading out before the actual duration expires.   
  • Fixed the second Railjack Void Fissure mission in a row (when started from Railjack Navigation) not rewarding a Relic reward. 
  • Fixed the screen on the back of the TennoCon 2024 Syandana not properly taking Energy color.
  • Fixed entering an early segment of the Whispers in the Walls Quest as Dante resulting in a progression stop.  
  • Fixed the Foundry showing a Blueprint as craftable even if a player has insufficient Credits. 
  • Fixed being able to equip both Vexing Retaliation and Guardian Armor Augment Mods on Chroma. 
    • Only one Augment is allowed to be equipped per Ability.
  • Fixed being unable to fire weapons after casting Xata’s Whisper from a Xaku that has Dante’s Noctua ability injected via Helminth. 
  • Fixed Halls of Ascension not rewarding Drift Mods. 
  • Fixed remaining Grakata ammo determining how much ammo of Kahl-175’s Corinth has upon pickup in The New War Quest. 
    • Now it will always have full ammo upon pickup!
  • Fixed the option to reduce Clan Tier via the Clan Management screen missing. 
  • Fixed block forward combo sound FX playing for all squad members regardless of distance when using a Staff Melee weapon with the Clashing Forest Stance equipped. 
  • Fixed a stray out-of-bounds volume partially sticking out of a staircase in the Albrecht’s Laboratories tileset. This caused the screen to go black while traversing over this particular spot. 
  • Fixed issue with enemies spawning into the ground in a specific room in the Albrecht’s Laboratories tileset. 
  • Fixed Yareli’s Merulina duplicating after Host migration when the “Loyal Merulina” Augment Mod is equipped. 
  • Fixed Rogue Bonewidow, Rogue Bonewidow Eximus, and Demolisher Bonewidow requiring 20 scans to fully unlock in Codex.     
    • They now only require 3 scans each to complete their Codex entry. If you have completed at least 3 scans or more before this Hotfix, the entry should now be automatically completed! 
  • Fixed the subsumed version of Grendel’s Nourish not using the “Altered” description of the stats in the Upgrade screen. 
  • Fixed Ceramic Dagger Incarnon’s Gun and Blade Evolution Perk using the wrong description and Breacher’s Opportunity being blank. 
  • Fixed Styanax’s Final Stand ability using default Spear colors if the Styanax Tonatiuh Skin is equipped. 
  • Fixed the feathers on Styanax Tonatiuh’s shield not using custom tints during his idle animation.
  • Fixed holster positioning issues for pistol and dual pistols on the Styanax Tonatiuh Skin.

  • Fixed sections on the underside of Khora Urushu’s helmet and on her posterior not properly taking Energy color.
  • Fixed the neck of Sevagoth’s Ezriel Helmet not being anchored to the body or adjusting based on movement. This was causing the Helmet to clip through the body like a solid piece.

Warframe – Ver. 35.5.2

  • Release date: March 28th 2024 (North America, Europe) / March 29th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

Changes: 

  • Updated the Onos and Ruvox Blueprint description to indicate that they also drop in the Armatus Disruption mission on Deimos.
  • Improved teleport volumes in the Albrecht’s Laboratories tileset to prevent issues with players getting spawned in weird spots. 

Fixes:

  • Fixed Armatus Disruption not rewarding the highest amount of Vessel Capillaries per Necramech Demolishers destroyed in the normal/Steel Path ranges:
    • Normal: 2-4 Vessel Capillaries (only 2-3 were being rewarded before this fix). 
    • Steel Path: 5-7 Vessel Capillaries (only 5-6 were being rewarded before this fix).
  • Fixed the TennoCon 2024 Display (from the TennoCon 2024 Digital Pack) having the wrong dimensions, causing it to appear stretched. 
  • Fixed receiving the incorrect Standing amount (compared to what was advertised in the Bounty UI) from Steel Path Bounties in Albrecht’s Laboratories and the Zariman. EDIT: We’re aware that this issue is still occurring. We discovered that there is a bug with public matchmaking that causes Steel Path players to load into the normal version of the Bounty, so you end up receiving the “normal” amount of Standing instead of Steel Path. There seems to be a 50/50 chance that this occurs, so the best workaround at the moment is pre-made Squads, which we understand isn’t always a realistic option. But rest assured we’ll be tackling this early next week once the team has returned from the long weekend we have here in Canada. 
  • Fixed Clients playing Dante not dealing full damage from Final Verse’s Tragedy. 
  • Fixed cases where Mirage’s Eclipse damage buff was not applying to Melee Weapons.
  • Fixed Mirage’s Hall of Mirrors clones unintentionally being able to indefinitely fire Onos’ charge beam.
  • Fixed Loki’s “Damage Decoy” Augment Mod not applying Radiation Status Effect on enemies. 
  • Fixed using Loki’s Switch Teleport ability on friendly AI resulting in other AI turning hostile against it. 
  • Fixed Nidus’ “Parasitic Vitality” Augment Mod not scaling with Ability Strength. 
  • Fixed squad kills not contributing towards the Host Chroma’s “Guardian Armor” Augment Mod, which meant it wasn’t restoring the Host’s Health and didn’t increase Vex Armor’s Duration as intended. 
  • Fixed Saryn’s Toxic Lash only applying one instance of Toxin Damage to weapons with Multishot instead of a second hit of Toxin Damage every damage instance as intended. 
  • Fixed a crash caused by Mirage casting Sleight of Hand within proximity of Yareli’s Merulina with the “Loyal Merulina” Augment Mod equipped. 
  • Fixed progress not tracking for the Onos and Ruvox’s Evolution IV challenge (Open X Conduits in Disruption on Armatus, Deimos), making it impossible to unlock. 
  • Fixes towards being unable to leave Submersible Archwing areas (throwing you back into the water instead of putting you on land) and often experiencing a loss of function after attempting. 
    • Note: It may take a couple of attempts before you are able to successfully exit water volumes after this fix. 
    • Also, if you are playing on a controller, approaching the exit with the analogue stick will allow you to exit the water after a couple attempts. However, using the context action to exit still causes the same issue to occur. 
    • We will continue to look into ways to fix these issues, but they may be code fixes which require a Cert update to deploy. 
  • Fixed non-Legendary Arcanes showing up in the Netracell screen.
    • These were removed from the Drop Tables in Dante Unbound to better balance the overall drop table. Read the full details in the official update patch notes!
  • Fixed certain Incarnon Secondaries missing the new special reticle introduced with Dante Unbound when in Incarnon form.
  • Fixed killed Rogue Bonewidows not contributing to the “Eliminate X Rogue Voidrigs” Cavia Bounty challenge.

  • Fixed Dante missing his own custom animations while dual wielding Glaive and Secondary Weapon. 
  • Fixed an issue with Onos’ projectiles which prevented them from being absorbed into Mag’s Magnetize bubble and causing them to literally bounce off of it into the stratosphere. 
  • Fixed extreme camera shake when using Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance ability. 
  • Fixed issue where Lohk Surges spawned in the same room could have the same buff. The buffs will now be more randomized!  
  • Fixed a rare crash when picking up a Decree Fragment right as you dismounted Merulina in the Undercroft.
  • Fixed a crash related to Qorvex’s Passive.
  • Fixed Styanax Tonatiuh Skin green color sometimes appearing when changing Helmets. 
  • Fixed seeing broken fur textures when viewing Kubrow Accessories in the in-game Market if your Kubrow is not equipped or is roaming the Orbiter.
  • Fixed the Lua Planter and Pitcher Planter Decorations missing textures when placed in the Orbiter and/or Drifter Camp. 
  • Fixed a teleport volume in the Albecht’s Laboratories tileset spawning players out of the map. 
  • Fixed the Tranq Rifle unintentionally killing Avichaea instead of tranquilizing them (RIP). 
  • Fixed ability tooltips in the Upgrade screen missing their descriptions (only showing stat information). 
    • Also fixed weird spacing occurring the the tooltip for locked abilities. 
  • Fixed the Grimoire missing its Unique Trait description. 
    • Now reads: “Alternate Fire releases a voltaic orb that travels slowly then explodes after 6 seconds, shocking an enemy every second within 6m. Shock will chain to 2 additional enemies within 6m.”
  • Fixed Mod slots in the Upgrade screen showing as red instead of green for Mods with the Universal Polarity (ex: Dreamer’s Bond). 
  • Fixed the Fog of War Ephemera not playing nicely with GI Lighting. 
  • Fixed Vessel Capillaries being sorted to the bottom of the End of Missions results screen. It will now be sorted higher to the top.

  • Fixed a script error caused by Dante’s Passive and Final Verse’s “Tragedy”. 
  • Fixed a script error caused by Nyx’s Psychic Bolts ability. 
  • Fixed a script error in the Duviri Void Mirror objective. 
  • Fixed a script error caused by Rogue Voidrigs in Albrecht’s Laboratories. 
  • Fixed a script error occurring from a combination of the Manifold Bond and Electro Pulse Mods. 
  • Fixed a script error when trying to contribute to the Vault of a Clan in the same Alliance. 
  • Fixed some languages missing localized text in certain menus. 

Warframe – Ver. 35.5.1

    • This change also fixes cases of Dante losing access to his Secondary weapon and Abilities when in Submersible Archwing with Noctua active.
  • Added a duration cap to Chroma’s Guardian Armor Augment Mod.
    • This Augment was intended to offer players a way to extend its duration but was released uncapped, resulting in some pretty impressive numbers. For the sake of balance, we have capped this bonus time at your current modded Vex Armor duration.

Fixes: 

  • Fixed being unable to trade newly Unveiled Rivens.
  • Fixed an issue that was causing Tributa Dojo Decorations to load in the wrong order, which would affect the displays players created using them.

  • Fixed Elemental FX applying to the entirety of the Tequihua Polearm Skin instead of just the striking end.

  • Fixed issues with the Onos’ beam effect having sporadic motion.
  • Fixed being unable to progress in the Rising Tide Quest if attempting to repair Railjack without being in a Clan (which was an old requirement from back in the day that snuck back in somehow!).

  • Fixed Protea’s utility belt clipping through many Syandanas. 
  • Fixed getting an error when attempting to purchase something from Cephalon Simaris.

NEW WARFRAME: DANTE
Seeker of knowledge. Keeper of history. Daring researcher of Leverian lore. Dante composes arcane tales to support allies and devastate enemies.

Abilities 
Passive: Chronicler’s Mark
Noctua scans targets, recording information for your Codex. Status Chance increases by 50% on fully scanned targets

Ability 1: Noctua
Wield the power of Dante’s chronicles. Customize Noctua with Tome Mods that enhance Warframe Abilities and reward strategic combat. Primary attack releases pages that tear into lethal pieces on hits. Its alternate attack releases a wave with infinite Punch Through.

As an Exalted Weapon, the Noctua can be customized (Tome Skins can be equipped onto Noctua!) and upgraded in the Arsenal. It also has a Unique Trait; there is no restriction to how many Tome Mods can be equipped onto it. 

Ability 2: Light Verse
Dante’s vitalizing composition grants him and his allies Overguard and increases their Health.

This is Dante’s Railjack ability. 

Ability 3: Dark Verse
Dante’s composition draws blood from nearby enemies, inflicting Slash Damage upon them.

This is Dante’s Helminth ability. 

Ability 4: Final Verse
Dante must compose two other Verses before his Final Verse.

TRIUMPH: Two Light Verses cast in succession invigorate allies with a buff that increases Health and grants Overguard. Kills and assists briefly regenerate Overguard. 

TRAGEDY: Two Dark Verses cast in succession attack enemies. Any Damage Over Time they have suffered accumulates in a single blast. 

WORDWARDEN: A Light Verse followed by a Dark verse supports allies with copies of Noctua. Noctua copies synchronize their attacks with their designated ally’s attacks. 

PAGEFLIGHT: A Dark Verse followed by a Light Verse summons Paragrimms that swoop at enemies, making them vulnerable to Status Chance and drawing enemy attacks away from allies. 

Dante’s Leverian
Tenno, Drusus desperately needs your help. Visit him in Dante’s Leverian (accessible via the Codex) to learn of Dante and why Drusus is requesting your aid. Dante’s Prex Card can also be yours, if you can blow off the dust in his Leverian to find it.  

 

Entry Requirements: Access to Dante’s Leverian via the Codex requires you have completed both The Deadlock Protocol and Whispers in the Walls Quests. Once you have done so, Drusus will send you an inbox message inviting you to join him in the Leverian. For players who have already completed these Quests, you shall receive this inbox upon downloading the update and logging in. 

How to Acquire Dante 

  • Armatus (Deimos) Drop Tables: Dante’s Blueprint and Component Blueprints have a chance to be rewarded from the new Disruption Deimos Node, Armatus (more information in the “New Deimos Node” section below). 
  • Loid’s “Research Dante” Store: Dante’s Blueprint and Component Blueprints can also be acquired at Loid in the Sanctum Anatomica using Vessel Capillaries (earned from Armatus). 
  • In-game Market: Dante is available for Platinum individually or as part of the Dante Collection. 

Maximum Loadout Slot Increase:
With the release of Dante, the maximum number of purchasable Loadout Slots has been increased from 24 to 25. 
 

NEW INCARNON WEAPONS 

RUVOX
Albrecht’s Void experiments revealed the true destructive potential of this fist weapon. In Incarnon form, perform Heavy Slams to impale nearby enemies with spikes.

How to acquire the Ruvox: 

  • First and foremost, in order to acquire the Ruvox you must first complete the Whispers in the Walls and The Deadlock Protocol Quests to gain access to Armatus! 
  • Armatus (Deimos) Drop Tables: Ruvox’s Blueprint and Components have a chance to be rewarded from the new Disruption Deimos Node, Armatus (more information in the “New Deimos Node” section below). 
  • Loid’s “Research Dante” Store: Ruvox’s Blueprint and Components can also be acquired at Loid in the Sanctum Anatomica using Vessel Capillaries (earned from Armatus). 
  • In-game Market: Ruvox is available for Platinum individually or as part of the Dante Collection.*

* Players can purchase this item without the Quest prerequisites, but Whispers in the Walls must be completed to unlock its full potential.  

 

ONOS
Albrecht’s Void experiments revealed the true destructive potential of this wrist-mounted cannon. In Incarnon form, draw in ambient power to deal steadily increased damage to enemies. At full power, release a blast of Heat.

How to acquire Onos: 

  • First and foremost, in order to acquire the Onos you must first complete the Whispers in the Walls and The Deadlock Protocol Quests to gain access to Armatus! 
  • Armatus (Deimos) Drop Tables: Onos’ Blueprint is rewarded from the new Disruption Deimos Node, Armatus (more information in the “New Deimos Node: Armatus (Murmur Disruption)” section below).
  • Loid’s “Research Dante” Store: Onos’ Blueprint can also be acquired at Loid in the Sanctum Anatomica using Vessel Capillaries (earned from Armatus). 
  • In-game Market: Onos is available for Platinum.*

* Players can purchase this item without the Quest prerequisites, but Whispers in the Walls must be completed to unlock its full potential.   
 

NEW DEIMOS NODE: ARMATUS (DISRUPTION)
Drusus Leverian owes a debt to Parvos Granum, who seeks a total takeover of the Leverian. Without enough donations, funding ran short, and he took a deal with Parvos that could spell the end of the Leverian. Visit Dante’s Leverian to discover just exactly what’s been happening, to both listen to Dante’s story and Parvos’ power grab to remove Drusus from his own museum.

Murmur Disruption can be accessed via the ARMATUS node on Deimos from either the Star Chart or the Laboratory Navigation in the Sanctum Anatomica. It can also appear as a Bounty at Fibonacci. 

How to Unlock Node: Complete The Deadlock Protocol and the Whispers in the Walls Quests. This is due to the fact that they provide substantial lore context to the mission!

What to Expect
Reaching out to the Tenno to act as field associates, Drusus asks you to retrieve high-value Entrati artifacts from Albrecht’s Conduit system to bolster his financial resistance. Enter the Laboratories once more to defend the Arterial Conduits from hulking Obol-adorned Necramech Demolishers and the Key-consuming Gruzzlings (learn more about this new enemy in its dedicated section below!) to earn new rewards.

How To Play
The Gruzzlings hold the keys known as Dockets, each correlating to the Void Tongue symbols of Xata, Lohk, Khra and Vome, instead of the square, triangle, circle and diamond seen in regular Disruption missions. Any enemy destroyed can drop a Docket, like regular Disruption, but you can eliminate roaming Gruzzlings to earn a guaranteed Docket drop.

Insert the Docket into a Conduit, and expect burdens: enemy buffs or environmental dangers. Or, perhaps Loid will reverse a detriment to become a boon as you face off against any Demolishers.
 

Rewards

Rotation Rewards: 

  • Dante’s Main and Components Blueprints
  • Ruvox Blueprint, Blade Blueprint, and Glove Blueprint
  • Onos Blueprint
  • Endo 
  • Void Relics

Visit the Official Warframe Drop Tables for more information.

New Resource: Vessel Capillaries
A crucial sub-component in the construction of Albrecht Entrati’s vessels, these Capillaries are earned by destroying Necramech Demolishers.

  • Normal: 2-4 Vessel Capillaries per Necramech
  • Steel Path: 5-7 Vessel Capillaries per Necramech 

New Loid Vendor Menu: Research Dante
Vessel Capillaries can also be traded to Loid in the Sanctum Anatomica for the rotation rewards listed above (Dante Blueprints, Ruvox Blueprints, Onos Blueprints). Additionally, players can purchase Riven Transmuters here for 50 Vessel Capillaries. These were originally exclusive to Eidolon drop tables, but now have an alternative acquisition path via Loid! Learn more about this new shop at Loid in the “Research Dante Store” section below. 

Disruption Quality Of Life Changes
With the introduction of the new Disruption node on Deimos, we took the opportunity to make some quality of life changes to the mode overall. 

While players highly engage with Disruption, requests to de-emphasize the audio component are at the forefront. With accessibility in mind, Disruption has received a few quality-of-life changes so all players can easily manage the game mode. The intention is to better support those who have difficulty with the audio cues. 

  • Locating the Demolishers is now easier! When the beeping is heard, you’ll receive an objective marker leading you to your foe.
    • The closer you are to the Demolisher, the less the marker will fade out.
    • When you’re within line of sight, the enemy marker becomes permanent.
  • The red Conduit is now yellow to promote visual clarity between icons and the Demolisher.
  • The Conduits for the original Disruption nodes have received a sound refresh! 
    • When you insert a key into a Conduit, the insert noise is much more pronounced.
  • Players that have “Enable Hint Transmissions” disabled will no longer hear the tutorial transmissions for Disruption. 

NEW ENEMY: GRUZZLING
Greedy creatures born from The Indifference, these little Murmur tricksters love to steal Conduit Dockets and other coveted items from Albrecht’s Laboratory.

 In the new Deimos Node, Armatus (Disruption), the Gruzzlings can carry around the Dockets necessary to activate the Conduits. 

In any other Deimos/Albrecht’s Laboratory missions (including Netracells), these avaricious beings contain within them one of the following:

  • 3x Entrati Lanthorns
  • 1x Echo Voca
  • 1x Common Entrati Melee Arcane:
    • Melee Retaliation
    • Melee Fortification
    • Melee Exposure 
    • Melee Influence 
    • Melee Animosity
    • Melee Vortex

ALBRECHT’S LABORATORIES & SANCTUM ANATOMICA CHANGES
“Research Dante” Store 
A new store has been added to Loid in the Sanctum Anatomica where you can acquire the following items for Vessel Capillaries:

  • Dante Blueprint and Component Blueprints
  • Onos Blueprint
  • Ruvox Blueprint and Component Blueprints
  • Riven Transmuter
  • New Captura Scenes:
    • The Abandoned Vessel Scene
    • Dante’s Retreat Scene
  • New Simulacrum Room: Sanctum Simulacrum 
    • Simulate a battle in the Sanctum Anatomica! This Simulacrum allows enemy difficulty to be set 25 levels above the standard maximum. 
  • 100,000 Credits

Albrecht’s Laboratories Tileset Expansion! 
Several new tiles (roughly 15!) have been added to the Albrecht’s Laboratories tileset! Explore new passageways, rooms (maybe even some secret ones), and more with this environment expansion. 

One of the tiles was featured in the Warframe: 1999 TennoCon 2023 demo, first one to find it gets bragging rights. 

The new tiles also feature the GI lighting and volumetric fog systems, to create a more realistic feel as you navigate through the new areas of this Entrati labyrinth. 

New Somachord Tones 
New Somachord Tones have been added to Albrecht’s Laboratories! Scanning them will unlock the following Whispers in the Walls tracks for your Orbiter’s Somachord: 

  • Murum Vull
  • No God Above Knowledge
  • Platform 7
  • Sanctum Anatomica
  • See It In The Flesh
  • The Fragmented
  • Vashtav
  • Yara Jeliira
  • The Master Returns

Weekly Archon Shard Offering Moved to Sanctum Anatomica 
Weekly rotating Archon Shard Offerings have been moved out of Chipper’s Store and are now available from Bird3 in the Sanctum Anatomica! The Archon Shard is specifically in their Shiny Treasures offerings.  

The weekly Archon Shard becomes available once you’ve reached Rank 5 with The Cavia Syndicate and can be purchased for 30k Cavia Standing. 

Having them at Chipper meant players had to repeat Break Narmer missions weekly to acquire the Stock needed to purchase them. In an effort to make Archon Shards more accessible and to refresh the gameplay path to acquiring them, they have been moved to the Sanctum Anatomica. With this change, we’ve adjusted some of Chipper’s lines to remove mentions of Archon Shards. This chipper line lives on in our hearts: “Got archon shards if you’re interested. Only one previous owner. Ha ha HA!”. 
 

Netracell Drop Table Changes
In the same vein as the above change to make Archon Shards more accessible, we’ve made the following changes to the Netracell Drop Tables. 

1. Removed all non-Legendary Arcanes (as listed below) 

  • Melee Exposure 
  • Melee Animosity 
  • Melee Retaliation 
  • Melee Influence 
  • Melee Vortex 
  • Melee Fortification

2. Adjusted drop rates in light of the removal of the above Arcanes 

Overall the majority of the rewards have had their drop rate increased by roughly ~40-50%, with the exception of the Melee Arcane Adapter which has been slightly reduced to accommodate for the increased rates for Archon Shards and Legendary Arcanes. 

Here are the new drop rates for each reward: 

  • Crimson Archon Shard – 17.50% (was 9.17%) 
  • Azure Archon Shard – 17.50% (was 9.17%)
  • Amber Archon Shard – 17.50% (was 9.17%)
  • Melee Arcane Adapter – 15% (was 20%) 
  • Melee Crescendo – 10% (was 5.62%) 
  • Melee Duplicate 10% (was 5.62%) 
  • Tauforged Crimson Archon Shard – 4.17% (was 2.50%) 
  • Tauforged Azure Archon Shard – 4.17% (was 2.50%) 
  • Tauforged Amber Archon Shard – 4.17% (was 2.50%) 

The Official Warframe Drop Tables have also been updated with the above changes! 
 

General Albrecht’s Laboratories and Sanctum Anatomica Changes & Fixes: 

  • You can now embrace the Cavia members in the Sanctum Anatomica! The new “Offer Comfort” option appears in their options when interacting with them. For those of you who know, you can agree that they need all the comfort they can get!
  • Fixed the Albrecht’s Laboratories Bounty drop information missing from the Official Warframe Drop Tables.
  • Added new animations to Murmur faction enemies so that they react to Limbo’s Stasis, Rhino’s Stomp, and Mag’s Crush abilities. 
  • Yareli will now be automatically dismounted from Merulina when injecting Atropos Probe to the Vitreum scanners. 
  • Weapons will now be hidden during the animation to inject the Atropos Probe into the Vitreum scanner. 
  • Crucibles in Alchemy missions will now dissolve in/out instead of just spawning/despawning out of thin air. 
  • Added purchase detail diorama for the Decorations available at Bird3 in the Sanctum Anatomica. 
  • Rebalanced The Hollow Vein and The Anatomizer to be less of a bullet sponge, and made The Anatomizer pose more of a threat in missions.
    • Reduced the total health values of these foes to make them easier to take out, especially for Eximus variants. Their large health pool was in place to help their survivability since they have no Shields or Armor, but the result was a little too tanky for our liking.
    • Increased the attack frequency and grenade area of effect for The Anatomizer to make it a more active presence in battle. Also slightly increased the range at which it will engage with players.
    • Also fixed Anatomizer being self-staggered by their own grenades. 
    • Fixed The Hollow Vein’s beam attack damage being tied to frame rate (damage per frame). 
      • The higher the frame rate, the more damage it dealt. So we’ve decoupled it from frame rate and given it a defined tick rate to prevent this from happening.
  • The Hollow Vein is now vulnerable to Warframe abilities, staggers, and knockdowns. 
    • This enemy is already fairly strong and the resistances it had were mostly invisible to players, which made it even more difficult to deal with. 
  • Rogue Bonewidows can now be spawned into Albrecht’s Laboratories by Rogue Culverins. Meaning, there is now a 50/50 chance that either a Rogue Voidrig or Bonewidow spawns (and an additional chance for them to be Eximus units as well). 
    • Enemy Bonewidows have also been reworked! Read more on that in the dedicated “Enemy Bonewidow Necramech Rework” section further down in these patch notes. 
  • Fixed the Anchorhold door in Netracell missions not opening if Host migration occurred after it was hacked but not triggered to open, leaving the returning players unable to start the mission. 
  • Fixed Steel Path missions started via the Sanctum Anatomica Elevator not spawning Acolytes. 
  • Fixed Sentinels breaking open Murmur Sarcophages not counting towards the “Find X Murmur Sarcophages” Bounty challenge.
  • Fixed the containers in Persto (Deimos) not dropping Life Support Capsules. 
  • Fixed Voca pickups not counting towards the “The Hunt is On” Nightwave Act and the “Find X Syndicate Medallions” Riven Challenge. 
  • Fixed Murmur faction enemies who could not be disarmed not taking damage from Disarming abilities (ex: Loki’s Radial Disarm). 
  • Fixed the Anatomizer being able to be disarmed (ex: Loki’s Radial Disarm).  
    • Since the Anatomizer only has a ranged attack, when it is disarmed it has no way to melee attack as a fallback, so it is no longer affected by disarming abilities/attacks. 
  • Fixed Netracells having the incorrect enemy level if a Cambion Drift bounty is started before speaking to Tagfer. 
  • Fixed Mocking/Scathing Whisper getting killed along with the rest of the enemies when the alert level hits 0% in Netracell missions.
  • Fixed Lumbering and Shuffling Fragments never ending up in Grendel’s belly and instead completely despawning when Feast is cast on them. 
    • This was caused by a lack of recovery animations on these enemies, which we have now added! With that, they can also now be properly Regurgitated. 
    • Known issue: They do not have any velocity to them when Regurgitated and will spawn back on top of Grendel when cast. 
  • Fixed a crash when walking up to Loid in the final stages of the Whispers in the Walls Quest. 
  • Fixed script error caused by aborting during the stage of the Whispers in the Walls Quest where you first pick up the Grimoire. 
  • Fixed a random wall from the Albrecht’s Laboratories tileset appearing in unintended locations, causing holes in the map. 
  • Fixed Mocking/Scathing Whisper stretching weirdly in reaction to Warframe abilities. 
  • Fixed Rogue Culverins not firing at players while readjusting positioning. 
  • Fixed Tagfer missing his specific voice lines to react to you accepting or rejecting the Netracell mission. 
  • Fixed Host using the wrong throwing animation to toss Amphors at Crucibles in Alchemy missions after Host migration. 
  • Fixed interacting with and exiting the POM-2 terminal in the Sanctum Anatomica triggering Parazon Mods. 
  • Fixed Atropos Probe stands not updating their light from green to red if picked up by Yareli while riding on Merulina. 
  • Fixed Atropos Probes not appearing in Yareli’s hand for several seconds after if picked up while she’s riding on Merulina.
  • Fixed being unable to throw Alchemy Amphors while riding Merulina. 
  • Fixed throwable items (ex: Voidrig’s Necraweb Canister) missing their arch projection/trajectory preview lines in certain areas of the Albrecht’s Laboratories tileset. 
  • Fixed an issue where you would need to relog or run a mission after completing The New War Quest to access the inbox message that unlocks the Whispers in the Walls Quest. 
  • Fixed more instances where the Heat Vents in Alchemy missions would spawn very far away from players.   
  • Improved how tiles in Albrecht’s Laboratories are randomized to prevent cases where certain tiles would never appear.

ARCHON SHARD EXPANSION: ASCENT FUSION

The process of Ascent Fusion allows for three Archon Shards of the same type to be fused together to create a single Tauforged Shard. 

Requirements

  • Helminth Archon Shard Segment: The Blueprint is earned for completing the Veilbreaker Quest. 
  • 3 Archon Shards of the same type. 
  • Helminth Coalescent Segment: The Blueprint is purchased from Bird3 in the Sanctum Anatomica.

How to use Ascent Fusion 

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

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

Step 3. Hover over one of the three slots on screen to select the Archon Shard type you’d like to fuse together. Once you’ve selected an Archon Shard, the rest of the slots will be automatically filled with the same type from your inventory (only types with 3 or more Shards will be selectable). The Tauforged Archon Shard fused from the base Shards will appear in the center. Hover over the Tauforged Archon Shard to preview its stats and bonuses.

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

  • Fusion Requirement: 100 Stela for each Fuse.

WARFRAME ABILITY CHANGES

In addition to the highly anticipated Inaros rework, a few other Warframes have had their abilities tweaked with this update. Here’s a list of what this section will cover: 

  • Inaros Rework
  • Mirage’s Eclipse & Prism
  • Gara’s Passive 
  • Grendel’s Nourish (Helminth only) 
  • Loki’s Decoy and Switch Teleport 

Upon downloading the update and logging in, all players will receive an inbox message with the following items to help you experiment with new builds and Helminth infusions for these Warframes:

  • 2 x Forma
  • Helminth Resource Bundle, enough to feed your Helminth once per Resource type!
    • 750 Oxium
    • 6000 Rubedo
    • 50 Ganglion
    • 12,500 Polymer Bundle
    • 3,000 Cryotic
    • 4,000 Plastids
    • 5 Cetus Wisps

Inaros Rework
Awaken the king of the desert once more and command the sands with far more ferocity than ever before! 

Passive 

  • Inaros still heals from performing Melee Finisher Kills on enemies. This is unchanged.
  • Inaros’ special bleedout state where he could pull enemies toward his Sarcophagus and leech their Health has been replaced.
    • Now: When Inaros dies, he turns into a Sand version of himself with normal movement and a Melee attack. Land a certain number of hits on enemies before time runs out in order to respawn, but the more often you die, the more enemies you have to hit!

Ability 1: Desiccation 
Largely unchanged, but we have fixed issues with certain enemies not being vulnerable to Melee Finishers! Now, this should be more consistent.

  • Desiccation is now Inaros’ Railjack Ability (was previously Devour). 

Ability 2: Sandstorm (Was Devour)
Devour has been removed entirely and replaced by an improved Sandstorm.

  • Inaros becomes a Sandstorm whirlwind, now with faster animations and movement, so it feels less punishing.
  • Inaros is now invulnerable while spinning in Sandstorm. 
  • Sandstorm now has a duration instead of being a channeled power. (Will not block Energy Regeneration while in Sandstorm mode). 
    • You can still choose to end the power early if you like.
  • Instead of throwing enemies everywhere around the level, it drags enemies beneath your feet so you can use Melee Ground Finishers if you choose.
  • Inaros regenerates 50 Health per second (base, scales with Ability Strength) for each enemy held in his Sandstorm.

Ability 3: Scarab Shell 
Inaros’ fourth ability has been split into two different abilities that are easier to use and reflect its two main features.

  • Increased Armor from 240 to 350 (at max) and can now be scaled with Ability Strength. 
  • Scarab Shell can be charged up by spending Health to give you Armor. There is now a unique indicator on your HUD that shows the current charge level of Scarab.
  • Charging Scarab Shell no longer stops you from moving around.
  • The “Negation Swarm” Augment Mod has been retired, its special effect is now part of the base ability: While Scarab Shell is active, hostile Status Effects are ignored at a small cost in Armor.
    • This mechanic was initially part of the “Negation Swarm” Augment Mod, which has been reworked entirely.  
    •  Please see “Augment Changes” below for more info on the retired Negation Swarm.
  • Balanced for Conclave: Scarab Armor does not deal AoE damage while charging. 

Ability 4: Scarab Swarm

  • Scarab Swarm no longer requires you to charge up the ability by investing Health.
  • On cast, enemies in a cone are attacked by scarabs that do 1/10th of Inaros Max Health as Corrosive damage per second.
  • Enemies that die while affected by Scarab Swarm turn into a Swarm Kavat (maximum of 3 Swarm Kavats can be active at once).
    • The maximum amount of Swarm Kavats can be increased to 5x with the Dessication’s Curse Augment Mod. 
  • Swarm Kavats can move and attack independently, and their attacks cause additional enemies to be afflicted by the Swarm.
  • Balanced for Conclave: Swarm Kavats do not spawn and the Health scaling is halved.  

Inaros Augment Mod Changes:

  • Desiccation’s Curse: Instead of enemies turning into a sandy copy of their former selves on death, they become Swarm Kavats capable of applying Scarab Swarm on their targets.
    • Mod description reads: “Killing a blinded enemy with a Finisher has a X% chance to summon a Swarm Kavat that will spread Scarab Swarm.” 
  • Elemental Sandstorm: No changes!
  • Negation Swarm has been replaced by Negation Armor: When Inaros takes fatal damage, consume Scarab Shell to heal and become briefly invulnerable. Inaros is affected by a strong Bleed Status when this ends.

 

Mirage Eclipse Rework 

After a great amount of input from the Community, Mirage’s Eclipse ability no longer determines the buff (Solar or Lunar Eclipse) to apply based on the environment’s light level, will always be at maximum strength, and is now a Tap/Hold ability! 

In its previous state, Eclipse was quite unreliable. One step in any direction could suddenly switch the buff or lower its strength, which left players little control over its benefits. It also did not function correctly in every area of the game, notably in Open Landscapes and Albrecht’s Laboratories where only the Solar Eclipse buff would be active at full strength – even at night time. 

The changes listed below affect both Mirage and Eclipse applied via the Helminth (with some notable exceptions listed below its Diminished Effectiveness). 

How it works: 

  • Tapping Eclipse provides the Lunar Eclipse buff (Increased Damage Reduction). 
  • Holding Eclipse provides the Solar Eclipse buff (Increased Weapon Damage). 

Scaling change: 
Since the ability no longer depends on level lighting to determine the buff type, the buffs themselves also no longer scale based on light level. Instead, their previous maximum effect is now the base (affected by Ability Strength): 

  • Solar Eclipse now has a base 200% increased Weapon Damage. 
  • Lunar Eclipse now has a base 75% Damage Reduction. 
    • We have lowered the Damage Reduction cap to 90% (previously 95%), to bring it in line with other Damage Reduction abilities (Gara’s Splinter Storm, Citrine’s Preserving Shell, etc.). 

Helminth Diminished Effectiveness Change: 
Eclipse has been one of the most popular Helminth abilities, so by fixing its unreliability related to light sources and making its buffs guaranteed, a rebalance was in order to compensate. This change does not affect the ability for Mirage, only when applied via the Helminth.

  • Solar Eclipse has a base 30% increased Weapon Damage.
    • This was previously 150%, it was reduced to match the Diminished Effectiveness of Rhino’s Roar.
  • Lunar Eclipse has not changed. It still provides a base 75% Damage Reduction.
    • The Damage Reduction cap also remains the same at 75%. 

Mirage Prism Changes
In its current form, Prism’s damage scaling is affected by environmental lighting at Mirage’s position, which is impacted by the same inconsistency issues that Eclipse suffered from. The team has reviewed Prism and made similar changes to Eclipse: 

  • Removed damage scaling based on environmental lighting.
  • Prism now has extrinsic synergy with Eclipse
    • If Solar Eclipse (Weapon Damage) is active, Prism’s damage is increased by 100%.
    • If Lunar Eclipse (Damage Reduction) is active, then the Energy per second cost of Prism is reduced by 50%. This Energy cost is calculated after Ability Efficiency is considered, allowing it to exceed the normal cap for Efficiency.

Gara Passive Change
Similarly to the Mirage Eclipse/Prism changes, we realized Gara’s Passive also relied on “standing in light” and, therefore, would have the same issues as Mirage regarding GI Lighting and inconsistent lighting areas. We have removed the scaling with illumination (standing in light) and made the following changes:

  • When casting an ability, there’s a base 15% chance to radially blind nearby enemies for 10s. 
  • Each cast without a blind increases your chances by 20% until it creates a radial blind.

Nourish Helminth Change 

Nourish is by far the most used Helminth ability, so we felt it was necessary to reduce its effectiveness slightly for the Helminth version only. Our goal is to remove situations where it feels like “You’re playing wrong if you’re not using Nourish”, without making the ability unusable.

Nourish when Infused via Helminth now has the following alterations: 

  • Base Energy Multiplier has been reduced from 2x to 1.6x.  
  • Base Viral Damage Buff has been reduced from 75% to 45%. 

Everything else related to Nourish through the Helminth remains unchanged.

Loki Ability Changes

Decoy: 
Previously, Decoy had a fixed amount of Shield (400) and Health (200). Now, Decoy converts 15% (base, scales with Ability Strength) of enemy Health and Shields within 15m (base, scales with Ability Range) into its own Health and Shields! 

This should make Decoy much more useful in higher-level missions, as it can survive a lot more exposure to enemy attacks!

Switch Teleport: 

  • Loki now gains a brief movement speed buff (50% increase for 5 seconds) after using Switch Teleport (scales with Ability Strength and Duration).   
  • Switch Teleport will also no longer root you in place after the teleport. 

Yareli Ability Changes

Aquablades & Riptide: 

  • Yareli is no longer rooted in place when casting Aquablades and Riptide! Now the casting animation is upper body only to allow you to stay nimble and mobile. 

Merulina: 

  • Added a shake animation and VFX to Merulina’s damage absorption UI element in the HUD, to better indicate when it’s been destroyed. 

Customization For Warframes With Invisibility Abilities

Warframes now have Invisibility customization – no longer will you have to be strictly transparent! 

Warframes with Invisibility abilities (Loki, Ivara, Ash, Octavia, and Voruna) will now find customization options in the Arsenal under Appearance > Attachments > Auxiliary Attachments. 

Instead of Invisibility being completely see-through, players can customize it from being more translucent/semi-transparent to non-transparency with an Energy glow gleaming from your character. 


Semi-Cloak Option

Glow-Cloak Option

An alternate, opaque glow, for when the Warframe is cloaked. Does not alter enemy perception. 

Invisibility colorization is affected by the primary Energy color of your Warframe.

 

OMNIA VOID FISSURES
A new type of Void Fissure is available! Found on Star Chart nodes previously untouched by Void Fissures, the new Omnia Fissure allows Tenno to crack Lith, Meso, Neo, or Axi Relics – whatever they choose! 

There is one Omnia Fissure available at all times on both standard and Steel Path difficulties. Tenno must have access to the respective node on the Star Chart in order to access the correlating Omnia Fissure, including any Quests necessary for the node:

  • The War Within Quest for Lua Conjunction Survival Missions
  • Angels of the Zariman Quest for Zariman
  • Whispers in the Walls Quest for Albrecht’s Laboratories 

Omnia Fissures can be found on:

  • Lua: Yuvarium (Conjunction Survival)
  • Lua: Circulus (Conjunction Survival)
  • Zariman: Everview Arc (Void Flood)
  • Zariman: Tuvul Commons (Void Cascade)
  • Albrecht’s Laboratories: Cambire (Alchemy)
  • Albrecht’s Laboratories: Persto (Survival)

STEEL PATH ADDITIONS

The Steel Path: Holdfasts & Cavia Bounties
The Steel Path is now available for Holdfasts and Cavia Bounties. Accessing the Steel Path variants is possible through a selection UI when speaking to a Bounty Giver.

How to change Bounty difficulty:
When interacting with a Bounty giver, select “Bounties” and change the difficulty at the top left of your screen, below your rank and Daily Standing Cap. 

 

With Steel Path Bounties, you’ll earn 50% more Standing from The Cavia bounties, while The Holdfasts will net you 50% more Voidplume Quills, rounded up (e.g. Tier 5 SP Bounties will reward 8 Plumes)!

As always, you’ll find many similarities between these Bounties and other Steel Path missions across the Origin System. Enemies are tougher and higher-level, you’ll earn one guaranteed Steel Essence upon Steel Path Bounty completion, and the Acolytes will “torment” you within Zariman & Albrecht’s Laboratories Steel Path Bounties.

 

Steel Path Incursion Expansion: Zariman And Albrecht’s Laboratories

Steel Path Incursions are a familiar feature in the Origin System, with five Star Chart nodes being chosen each day that reward an additional 5 Steel Essence each on completion. With Dante Unbound, an additional sixth Incursion will make an appearance daily.

This new addition will work the same as existing Incursions, but will only appear within the Zariman and Albrecht’s Laboratories, meaning a daily incursion will always be on one of these Tilesets. The existing five Incursions will not see any changes and will not appear on Zariman or Albrecht’s Laboratories nodes.
 

NEW PLAYER PATH IMPROVEMENTS

Following our work in Abyss of Dagath and Whispers in the Walls, we have more New Player Path improvements. This batch of changes touches a variety of aspects of the game, including Junction Requirements, Quest Difficulty, and more. 

Cephalon Simaris Introduction

We are adding Synthesis to the Junction path (see “Junction Changes” for more details), and have made the following changes to improve a Tenno’s first introduction to Simaris. 

  • Moved the “talk” interaction placement for Cephalon Simaris so players don’t have to get quite so close.
  • Updated tutorial dialogue option to better indicate that it is a tutorial.
    • It now reads “Teach me how to Perform Synthesis”. 
  • Added a waypoint to the Offerings console after completing the Synthesis Simulation.
  • Fixed having to speak to Simaris again after his introductory dialogue. Now the conversation will continue on seamlessly!

Mote Amp Acquisition

Receiving your first Amp from Onkko becomes vital soon after The War Within. Right now, an inbox message from a mysterious figure who tells of a secret door in Cetus is all that directs new players to the Quills. New players are never forced to find the door and receive their Amp to progress, which can cause problems by the time they play The Sacrifice.

To address this, we are now making Mote Amp acquisition an explicit requirement to progress in the main questline:

  • Removed the Mot requirement from Chains of Harrow Quest and replaced it with the requirement to visit Onkko in Cetus. 
  • Added a new inbox after completing The War Within directing players to visit Onkko in Cetus.

Junction Changes

  • Mercury Junction: 
    • Added “Complete Quest: Vox Solaris” to the Mercury Junction Tasks
    • Removed the “Rescue a Hostage at Linea on Venus” Task
  • Added The Deadlock Protocol as a Saturn Junction Reward.
    • Previously this was rewarded from Vox Solaris, but since it has a Mastery Rank 4 requirement, many new players would not be able to access it. Placing it further along the Junction path gives them more time to gain Mastery Rank before diving. 
  • Added “Perform Synthesis for Cephalon Simaris” task to the Uranus Junction.
    • Performing Synthesis and scanning targets are vital tasks for player progression, so we are adding an official introduction to it via Junctions. 
  • Added “Visit Maroo” to the Phobos Junction Tasks. 
    • We also improved the flow of the “Visit Maroo” button in the Ayatan Treasures screen to match that of Varzia’s. Now players will be presented with an introductory screen about Maroo, and will be taken directly to her Bazaar. 

 

Mastery-Rank Locked Inbox Messages
The following content is already locked behind Mastery Rank, but players receive details about it before reaching that Mastery Rank. Now, these messages will not be sent until players have met the Mastery Rank requirement.

  • The Waverider Quest will now be delivered via inbox upon completing Vox Solaris AND reaching Mastery Rank 3. 
  • Otak’s Tyana Pass inbox message will now be delivered upon completing the Heart of Deimos AND reaching Mastery Rank 3. 
    • Tyana Pass originally did not have a Mastery Rank requirement, but we are adding it so as to not distract new players from the Main Questline. 

Railjack Market Bundle Changes
With the significant improvements made to acquisition over the years, including adding Rising Tide to the Main Story Path, we have revisited the Railjack Market bundles added back in 2021.  Given the updated ease of acquiring a Railjack, our goal is to amend the cost of Railjacks – players can continue to earn it via the Main Story Path, but for those who want to pilot their own ship before Rising Tide, the 400 Platinum cost felt too steep. 

To start, we have removed the following items from the Market:

  • The New War Firepower Bundle
  • Railjack
  • Railjack Captain’s Bundle 

In their place, we are introducing a new Starter Railjack Bundle, offering the following items for 175 Platinum:

  • Railjack
  • 4 x Crew Member Slot
  • 4 x Components & Armaments Slots

Those who have purchased any of the removed Bundles will receive the value difference via a Platinum refund script in the coming days. Refer to our official PSA for Refund Script details: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1388577-psa-railjack-market-purchase-refund-script/
 

Quest Changes

Saya’s Vigil Improvements and Fixes:

  • Added a white highlight around Glass Shards to make them easier to find and scan. 
  • Removed the requirement to hack the Trailer Door. Now it will spawn open, allowing for players to start searching for and scanning Shards immediately. 
  • Moved one of the Glass Shards to a more visible placement. 
  • Amended enemy levels in the Galleon to be on-par with enemy levels on the Landscape. 
  • Players must now complete the “Prove Yourself” introductory Bounty from Konzu before being able to start Saya’s Vigil. 
    • Previously you would be able to start this Quest if you had been taxi’d into the Plains of Eidolon and completed a different Bounty. Now this introductory Bounty must be completed first!
    • This change also restricts full access to the Plains of Eidolon Bounty board behind this introductory Bounty. Being taxi’d will no longer unlock it for you.
  • Fixed needing to speak to Saya in Cetus twice to start Saya’s Vigil. Now the conversation will continue on seamlessly after her introduction!
  • Fixed an empty box appearing in the Abort Menu instead of saying “Cetus” during Saya’s Vigil Quest. 
  • Fixed Liset not properly animating in the Eidolon Extraction cinematic in Saya’s Vigil. 

Quest Blueprint Build Times:
We reduced the following Quest-related blueprint crafting time to 10 seconds, and updated the Rush Cost to be 0 Platinum:

  • Nightfall Apothic, Twilight Apothic, Sunrise Apothic (The Silver Grove)
  • Scorched Beacon, Chroma Signal, Chroma Mark (The New Strange)
  • Railjack Cephalon (Rising Tide)
  • Ascaris Negator (Vor’s Prize)
  • Limbo Theorem Components (The Limbo Theorem)
  • Mandachord (Octavia’s Anthem)
  • Potent Pherliac Pods (The Jordas Precept)

Other Quest Changes:

  • Added 60 Kuva to The Sacrifice Quest mission rewards so players can more easily build Excalibur Umbra. 
  • Added a waypoint to the Orb that players must interact with to start the Apostasy Quest. 
  • Reduced the Drone health in the Vox Solaris Quest to make it easier to shoot down before hacking. 
  • Added introductory Kuva Lich and Sister of Parvos inbox messages after the completion of their prerequisite Quests (The War Within and Call of the Tempestarii). 
  • The riddles from Hidden Messages will now appear in the TennoGuide to help players more easily find them. (or to help those who accidentally deleted the inbox messages — oops!).
  • Added a “Obtain Kinetic Siphon” objective to the “Paying with Synthesis” stage of The New Strange Quest. 
  • Re-ordered the Side Quests suggested by the Tenno Guide to prioritize Quests that introduce players to new systems and those that offer Warframes. 

MELEE ATTACK CHANGES

Melee Ground Slam Attack Changes

Prior to Dante Unbound, Melee Ground Slam Attacks were distributed between two damage instances – they appeared in the Arsenal UI (includes the stats window when hovering over equipment as well as the Upgrade screen) as follows: 

  • Slam Attack: Damage inflicted on an enemy by hitting them directly with a Ground Slam Attack. 
    • Note: We’ll refer to this stat as “Slam Direct Hits” moving forward in this section of the patch notes to avoid confusion between all the terms. This term denotes that the damage instance came from the direct Melee hit on an enemy while performing your Ground Slam – effectively Goomba Stomping them, if you will. 
    • Damage on Slam Direct Hits was scaleable with Mods.
  • Slam Radial Damage: Additional damage inflicted to all enemies in the radius of a Ground Slam attack. 
    • Other than a few specific Mods (Seismic Wave, etc.), Slam Radial Damage was locked at a flat value and did not scale with Mods.  

What’s Changed: 

1 – Ground Slam Attacks are now entirely Radial Damage
Ground Slam Attacks now only have one instance of damage: Slam Radial Damage! It is now the whole sum of the damage dealt by Ground Slam Attacks instead of being “additional”. 

What this means is that Slam Direct Hits are no more. All the damage done by a Ground Slam Attack is now purely Radial. 

With this change, it’s worth noting that we have also maintained the Damage Falloff on Slam Attacks, where damage diminishes the further an enemy is from the point of impact, but with some changes: 

  • Previously: Damage could fall off to ~0% at the edge of the impact radius. 
  • Now: Damage will only ever go as low as 50% (of total damage) at the edge of the impact radius for normal Slam Attacks, and 70% for Heavy Slam Attacks. 

2 – Ground Slam Attack’s Radial Damage now scales with Mods
Since Slam Attacks are now purely Radial Damage, we’ve made its damage scaleable with Mods, when previously it wasn’t. This effectively buffs Ground Slam Attacks since you can now directly increase its damage and apply Weapon Status (inherited from Mods), which ultimately improves its scalability for late game content. 

It’s worth noting that all of the above changes only apply to AERIAL/JUMP Ground Slam Attacks (In air + Aim Downwards + Melee) and AERIAL/JUMP Heavy Ground Slam Attacks (In air + Aim Downwards + Heavy Melee). They do not affect Slam Attacks that are part of Stance Combos. For example, Slam attacks during combos deal flat damage amounts and do not scale with Mods. We currently do not have plans to change this. 
 

3. Added a 2x Multiplier to its Radial Damage 
Slam Direct Hits had a 2x-3x multiplier (depending on Weapon Class) to account for the fact that it was actually quite difficult to land them, so the multiplier helped in making those rare instances feel impactful. 

Since Slam Direct Hits are no more, we have accounted for its removal by applying a 2x multiplier to Slam Attack’s Radial Damage across all Weapon classes. For the reasons listed directly above (Radial Damage now scalable with Mods) and for the sake of balance, the 2x (3x for Heavy Slam Attacks) multiplier on Radial Damage maintains the damage output without going overboard.
 

How The Changes Appear in the Arsenal:
Melee Ground Slam Attacks now has only one core stat in the Arsenal: SLAM ATTACK. The number listed beside indicates its Radial Damage. 

You’ll notice that with all of the above changes, some Melee weapons’ Slam Attack Damage has changed. Previously “Slam Attack” in the UI informed of “Slam Direct Hits”, which for some Melee weapon types (ex: Polearm, Sword, Two-Handed Nikanas, etc.), had a 3x multiplier applied. Now, since “Slam Attack” in the UI indicates Radial Damage and has had a 2x multiplier applied across all Melee types, the damage for those weapons may differ. 
But now that you can scale Slam Attack Damage with Mods, those differences can be easily recouped and then some. 

We’ve also added a Slam Radius stat to the tooltip to better inform players in-game: “Ground Slam attack hits all enemies around the point of impact within X meters.” 

  • It’s worth noting that the Slam Radius for each Weapon class has been untouched. 

Melee Finisher Improvements

Melee Finishers have been updated to standardize Finisher eligibility across enemies and weapons. Previously, if an enemy did not have a finisher animation prepared for a certain weapon type, then players would not be able to perform that specific Finisher on them. We have added default animations for all weapon types to prevent this restriction, meaning all enemies* should now be eligible for every type of finisher.

  • Also added a new VFX to showcase when an enemy is open to Finishers. You will still need to get into proper position to execute the finisher with this VFX active!
    • This includes finisher openings created by Warframe abilities (ex: Inaros Desiccation) and Ground Finishers. 
  • *Flying enemies (Corpus Ospreys, The Anatomizer, etc.) are still ineligible for Melee Finishers with this change.
  • Added new unique Mercy Finishers to the Hollow Vein, Severed Warden, The Anatomizer, Lumbering Fragment, and Shuffling Fragment enemies! Each with their own custom animations to really stick it to the Murmur in style. 
    • The context action to perform a Finisher on the airborn Murmur enemies (The Anatomizer and The Severed Warden) are not anchored to their bodies and will instead appear on the HUD when you are within radius of them. This is an experimental approach into finding ways to include Finishers on other airborne enemies in the future. 

Auto-Melee Fixes

  • Fixed getting locked auto-meleeing (even without input) after interacting with items and other actions while melee attacking. Notably: 
    • Interacting with Golden Hand Tributes
    • Selecting Duviri Decree
    • Entering Sanctuary Onslaught portal
    • Selecting Endless Void Fissure reward
    • Opening Gear Wheel
    • Using Transference
    • Interacting with turrets in Railjack
      • Known issue: We are aware that this issue can occur from the Stay/Leave screen in the Circuit. 
  • Fixed Auto-Meleeing in a certain location in the “Awaken the Sleeper” stage of the Whispers in the Walls Quest causing an interaction to be skipped. 
    • Melee will now be disabled when in this area to prevent key moments from being skipped.
  • Fixed getting locked auto-meleeing after holding the ability menu open and auto-meleeing simultaneously while using a controller. 
  • Fixed getting locked auto-meeling after opening the pause menu/chat window while holding the Melee attack button. 
  • Fixed Auto-melee persisting after exiting a Railjack turret / pilot seat if melee input was held upon entering it. 

UI QUALITY OF LIFE CHANGES

New UI Sorting Categories 

Warframe Arcane Selection Screen (Arsenal): 
We have added sorting categories to help you find the Arcanes you are looking to equip onto your Warframe. They can now be sorted based on their effects: 

  • Health
  • Shields
  • Armor
  • Resistance 
  • Energy
  • Abilities
  • Weapon Damage
  • Weapon Stats
  • Movement Speed
  • Companion
  • Special 
    • Arcanes that do not fit into the above categories due to their unique effects. For example: Arcane Trickery (On Finisher Kill: 15% chance to become invisible for 5s).  

Captura Scene Selection Screen: 
With well over 100+ Captura Scenes to own, scrolling through the Captura menu could be quite tedious to find the scene you were looking for, especially if you couldn’t remember its name. 

 

To help you spend more time Captura-ing instead of scrolling, we have added sorting categories to the Captura Scene screen! Tab between Faction, Syndicate, Quest, Open Landscape, and more themed tabs to find exactly what you’re looking for. Shoutout to all of the incredible Captura Artists out there! 

Orbiter Decoration Selection Screen: 
It is now easier than ever to make your Orbiter feel like home with new Decoration sorting categories! Spend more time placing your Floofs so that it looks like they are having a tea party, and less time scrolling through the selection screen to find the Zariman Spoon (a key component to any tea party) with these sorting categories: 

  • Statues
  • Floofs
  • Displays
  • Vendor
    • Decorations that can be acquired from various Vendors (Hombask, Ticker, etc.). 
  • Market
  • Tenno 
    • Includes Decorations rewarded from Quests/Events, Mastery Rank Slates, and more!

New Fast Travel Menus: Orbiter, Relays, & Dojo

Upgrade Screen Changes

  • Dragging Mods will now provide more visual information in the Upgrade Screen: 
    • Dragging a Mod will now maintain the same aspect ratio as an “open” Mod but scaled down, so that you can still identify it, its Polarity, and its Capacity Cost when moving it across the screen. 
    • Slots with matching Polarities to the dragged Mod are now highlighted in green and have a slight pulsing effect to indicate that they are eligible. Slots with mismatched Polarities are highlighted in red.
    • Hovering a Mod over a slot will now show how its capacity cost will be affected based on their Polarities. 
  • Made it more obvious that Damage Type stats are affected when swapping a Weapon or Modding one. Now, when you are making changes, the Damage types that are negatively impacted will shuffle lower in the list and appear slightly transparent, so that it’s easier to spot the changes between comparisons.  
  • Added an “OVERLEVELING” tag on equipment that’s Max Rank goes beyond 30 (Kuva/Tenet Weapons, Necramechs, etc.). 
  • Added a “VALENCE BONUS” tag for Kuva/Tenet Weapons to indicate that they are eligible for Valence Fusion and to expose their damage bonus type.
  • Added a tooltip when hovering over locked Exilus Slots to inform players that it “Requires Exilus Weapon Adapter” to unlock. 
  • Added new VFX when Exilus Slots are unlocked. 
  • Added new VFX when unlocking the Arcane Adapter Slot. 

Warframe, Weapon, and Railjack Stat UI Rework 

Looking at a wall of stats can be overwhelming, especially for new players who are familiarizing themselves with all the important information contained in those screens. 

In an effort to highlight the most important information and reduce the overall visual noise, we have made the following changes to the screens that display Warframe, Weapon, and Railjack stats:  

  • Stats are now organized in order of importance.
    • Core stats (most important) are visible at all times in these screens. 
    • Secondary stats (branched from Core stats) have been moved into tooltips that can be viewed by hovering over their respective Core stat. 
  • Added several new Core and Secondary stats to help communicate more relevant information to players. 
  • Improved how descriptions in core stat tooltips are presented to better distinguish between the Core stat’s description and its Secondary stats.
    • Added a dividing line to separate Core and Secondary stats. 
    • Added arrow icons next to each Secondary stat. 
  • Added new headers to group stats and better organize them. 
  • Added a “Base Stats” and “Upgraded Stats” tag at the top of the stat windows to indicate what kind of stats are being shown. 
  • Certain stats are no longer visible at all times and are now considered “Conditional”, meaning they will now only appear when Mods alter said stat. 
  • Removed/edited certain stats. 

Exact Details: 
The following section provides the nitty gritty details on all of the above changes and exactly how they’ll appear for each equipment type. We’ve also provided additional information on the specific changes that have been made for certain stats below as well. 

Here’s a guide to better understanding how we’ve written out how you will see it in the UI: 

  • Anything marked “New” is a stat that’s been exposed in the UI with this update. 
  • Anything marked “Conditional” is a stat that only appears depending on if correlating Mods have been equipped. 
  • Anything marked “New Header” denotes that a text line has been added to the UI to better categorize stats that follow below it. 

Warframe Stats: 

  • Health 
  • Shield
    • Shield Secondary Stats: 
      • Shield Gate Duration: When Shields break, gain invulnerability for Xs. Increasing max Shields lengthens the invulnerability time. 
      • Shield Recharge Delay (New): The time in seconds between when Shields are damaged and recharge: Xs. 
      • Shield Recharge (New): The rate Shields recover after being depleted: X%/s. 
  • Armor 
    • Armor Secondary Stats: 
      • Tau Resistance (Conditional) 
        • Condition: Only appears with Umbral Mods equipped. 
      • Elemental Damage Resistance  (Conditional) 
  • Energy
    • Energy Secondary Stats: 
      • Starting Energy (how much you have when loading into missions)
      • Energy Recovery (New): Energy recovers at X/s.
  • Sprint Speed – No Secondary stats 

Ability (New Header)

  • Duration
  • Efficiency
    • Efficiency Secondary Stats: 
      • (New) Efficiency Calculation: Abilities cost X% of their original cost. 
      • (New) Channeled Abilities Efficiency Calculation: Also accounting for the effects of Ability duration, your channeled abilities cost X% of their original cost.  
  • Range 
  • Strength

Primary/Secondary Weapon Stats:

Note: To avoid confusion, the following lists the new order of all Primary & Secondary Weapon stats combined. Meaning, you will see stats that apply to some weapons but not all (ex: weapons with Radial Attack will have the Range stat but not others). 

  • Fire Rate 
  • Multishot
  • Magazine
    • Magazine Secondary Stats:
      • Ammo Maximum (Conditional)
        • Condition: Appears on Weapons that have any amount of Ammo Maximum (>0)  
      • Ammo Pickup 
      • Reload

    • Accuracy is now displayed as the following: 
      • Very Low
      • Low 
      • Medium 
      • High 
      • Very High 
        • Previously, the numbers that used to be shown in the Accuracy stat were, in fact, not totally accurate to what players were actually experiencing. For example, the Grinlok had a Accuracy of 44.4, which could lead players to assume that its shots wouldn’t be very precise, but they in fact were. So now, in the UI it will properly indicate that it has High Accuracy. 
    • Accuracy Secondary Stats: 
      • Deviation With Aim: X degrees
      • Max Deviation (New): X degrees
    • We also changed the descriptions of Mods that used “Spread” instead of “Accuracy”, so that “Accuracy” is the only term we use to describe this attribute across the board. 
  • Trigger 
  • Noise (Conditional) 
    • Silent weapons show this by default. 
    • Condition: Appears with Noise Level Mods. 
      • We also added a new “SUPPRESSED” tag for when noise is modded but not enough to be totally silent. 
  • Punch Through (Conditional) 
    • Weapons with any amount of Punch Through (>0) show this by default.
    • Condition: Appears with Punch Through Mods. 
  • Range 
  • Riven Disposition

  • Slide Attack
  • Combo Duration
    • Combo Duration Secondary Stats:

        • Condition: Only appears with Combo Chance Mods. This will also cause its core stat Combo Duration to appear so that this secondary stat is accessible in its tooltip. 
      • Initial Combo (Conditional): New Combos start with X points instead of Zero. 
        • Condition: Only appears when equipping Initial Combo Count Mods. This will also cause its core stat Combo Duration to appear so that this secondary stat is accessible in its tooltip.

      • Slam Radius (New): Ground Slam attack hits all enemies around the point of impact within X meters. 
  • Tennokai Chance (New & Conditional)

General UI Changes: 

  • Added “Incarnon Upgrade Available” to the notifications drop-down list to inform players when they have an Incarnon Weapon that has pending Evolutions. Hovering over it will show the list of Incarnon Weapons that are available to update in the Arsenal/at Cavalero. 
    • Note: The tooltip will only list the Incarnon Weapons you have equipped, so a maximum of Weapons (Primary, Secondary, and Melee) will show here.
  • Added an “UPGRADE AVAILABLE” category to Cavalero’s “Evolve Incarnon Weapons” screen that’ll sort the weapons available to be upgraded.
    • These weapons also now have an “Evolve” tag, icon, and special backing to indicate they have upgrades available. 
  • Added the ability to view the Augment Mods that are compatible for the selected Helminth ability in the Infuse Ability Screen. Follow the prompt to “VIEW AUGMENTS” for a full list of compatible Augment Mods. 
  • Added a map Legend for Cetus, Fortuna, the Chrysalith, and the Necralisk/Sanctum Anatomica to help players identify and locate where each Vendor is located. 
    • The Legend is accessible by first opening the map and using the binding indicated on screen. 
      • This format also now applies to Dojo Legends. Previously the Legend menu would be ever-present while in Dojos. Now it will appear only when the Dojo Map is opened. 
    • To prevent spoilers, the Legend for the Cavia members in the Sanctum Anatomica is hidden from the Necralisk Legend if the Whispers in the Walls Quest has not been completed. 
  • You can now sort weapons by Mastery Rank in your Profile and Codex. 
  • Newly Unveiled Rivens will now appear first in the Mod screen when sorting by “Recent”.
  • Unidentified rewards will now be sorted at the top of the End of Mission list. 
  • Added an “Owned” tag to the Circuit Rewards tooltips to inform players if they own an item and how many.

  • Added a bunch more of the missing HUD buff descriptions, most notably Incarnon upgrades, Warframe Augments, Void Fissure buffs, Mod Set bonuses, Sentinel Mods, Weapon Unique Traits, Conclave Mods, Drifter Intrinsics and many many more! 
  • Changed the tooltip next to the “NEW ITEMS” title in the Update screen from “GO TO MARKET” to “VIEW IN MARKET” – the previous tooltip was leading players to believe they could select it to go to the in-game Market, which is not the case.
  • Damage numbers will now appear below reticles and hit indicators to improve visibility.
  • Added a new Reticle for Melee Incarnon weapons to a) better communicate when the Incarnon form is ready and b) better showcase how much Incarnon charge is remaining.
    • Now an indicator will appear at the bottom of the Reticle when Incarnon Form is ready to trigger.
    • A custom reticle appears while in Incarnon Form, which showcases how much Charge is left via a progress bar in the inner section. 
    • Also added new SFX when swapping to and from a weapon in Incarnon form.
    • Known issue: We are aware that some of the Melee Incarnon Weapons are missing this new reticle! We are investigating a fix. 
  • Made some visual updates to the Reticle for Primary/Secondary Incarnon Weapons to improve visibility similar to the changes above for Melee Incarnon weapons:
    • A new indicator will appear at the bottom of the Reticle when Incarnon Form is ready to trigger. 
    • The remaining Charge in the bar is now a blue color (the previous white was at times very difficult to see in contrast with the environment). 
  • Updated the Revive UI to be more visually distinctive in-mission. While making this change, we also updated the reviving sounds for a bit of extra polish! 
    • Added a new heartbeat-like SFX while players are in bleedout.
    • Added a new SFX when players have died without further revives.
    • Added new reviving SFX and SFX upon successful revival.

    • Knockdown:  Enemies fall to the ground, opening them up to melee ground finishers.
    • Sleep:  Enemies become unable to perform actions and open to melee finishers.
    • Disarm: Disarmed enemies lose their firearms and can only engage in melee combat.
    • Lifted: Certain melee attacks can lift enemies into the air, making them temporarily incapable of attacking you.
  • Updated “Health” on-hover description to not be specific to Warframes.
    • Now reads: “How much damage can be sustained before becoming incapacitated.”
  • The in-game Market’s “Back” button will now recall the history of the pages you visit from in the “View Related” button. The “Exit” button will take you to the main Market page when you are several pages deep. 
  • Moved the text describing that a node is locked to a tooltip (on hover) to prevent issues where text could clip outside of the World State Window UI. 
  • The in-game Market has a “NEW” section on the landing page to help you browse all the new additions. 

DUVIRI IMPROVEMENTS 
Top Quality of Life Changes

  • Rewards and Circuit Progress are now preserved after every completed Stage.
    • For example, if you are in Stage 6 and the Defense Target is destroyed, you will now keep all of the Circuit Progress and Rewards you had earned from the last 5 Stages.  
  • A “!” notification will now appear in the Star Chart and Duviri navigation screen when Circuit rewards are available to claim. 
  • Added the ability to leave the Undercroft Waiting Area via new “Return to Duviri” context action at the portal. 
    • This context action becomes available provided the teleportation timer has not begun (10 seconds if more than 50% of the players have entered the portal).
    • This should address issues of players becoming marooned in the Undercroft Waiting Area due to their squadmates not joining them.  

Circuit Assassination: Corrupted Jackal Changes 

The introduction of the Corrupted Jackal Assassination Circuit mode was designed with a twist to the standard Jackal fight for a bit of a challenging edge. However, players have expressed that the fight can quickly end you and your Squad’s Circuit run due to it being rather difficult to defeat. 

In an effort to make the fight less arduous and improve its success rate overall, we have made the following changes: 

  • Significantly reduced its turret damage.
  • Significantly reduced the damage and the radius of its Plasma Grenade Cluster attack.
  • The Plasma Grenade Clusters will now only target players outside of the bubble during its Grid Wall state/attack. 
    • Since Plasma Grenade Cluster has a much smaller radius and is much less punishing, we wanted to ensure players are still feeling engaged with this segment of the fight when leaving the bubble. 
  • Slightly increased the delay of when it uses its Plasma Grenade Cluster during its Grid Wall state to give you a bit more time to clear the area. 
  • Removed the nullifying effect from its Massive Shockwave attack. 
  • Fixed Corrupted Jackal having its abilities disabled by Banshee’s Silence in the Circuit. 
    • This would temporarily halt progress as it needed to use its Grid Wall attack to proceed with the fight. 

General Improvements & Fixes 

  • We have made significant infrastructure changes to Duviri missions to address widespread bugs caused by Host Migrations. These changes should address various instability caused by Host Migrations, including specific issues such as the following:
    • Being stuck in the Undercroft or in a permanent loading screen if a Host Migration occurs during the stage completion countdown. 
    • Clients being Duviri Drifter in the Undercroft after returning from a Host Migration. 
    • Migrating at the end of a Void Flood Undercroft stage resulting in loss of mission objective for returning players.
    • Returning players in the Jackal fight having a dark screen in the next Circuit stage. 
    • Migrating during the Stage transition after the Jackal Fight sometimes causing the new Host to crash or be in a broken state. 
    • Host Migration while returning to Duviri from the Undercroft resulting in loss of mission objectives. 
    • Host dying, migrating, and rejoining resulting in not being able to be revived upon their return. 
    • Leaving while dead in the Kaithe stage of the Steel Path Orowyrm Fight resulting in loss of function upon rejoining. 
    • Large hitch for Clients loading into a new Circuit session after a Host Migration.
    • Blue VFX from the second stage of the Steel Path Orowyrm fight persisting for the rest of the fight after Host Migration. 
    • Migration after breaking the final Orowyrm Ring resulting in returning players being unable to complete the fight due to the cutscene not playing properly. 
    • Migration in Undercroft causing one player to be split from the squad into their own session with a randomized Loadout. 
    • Players returning to an Undercroft mission after Host migration as Operator instead of Drifter and getting flung out of the map.  
    • A case of crashing upon migration during the Kaithe stage of the Steel Path Orowyrm fight. 
    • Fixed Host Migration in Teshin’s Cave and re-joining resulting in the player falling through the world as a “SUIT”.
    • Fixed Host Migration during Orowyrm cinematic putting the players back into the arena with no Orowyrm. 
  • The “Decrees Exhausted” message that occurs when opening up the Decrees menu while at the max amount will now only occur once and then will revert back to the Emote Wheel access. 
    • This fixes the issue where players were unable to access the Emote Wheel at all after hitting max Decrees since they use the same binding. 
  • Added UI notification that clarify why they are waiting in the Undercroft while players are loading or 50% of the players are not in the Undercroft.
  • Fixed remaining in Teshin’s Cave if the player is using the Drifter Appearance Mirror while the rest of their squad teleports to the first Circuit Stage. 
  • Fixed teleporting out of the Undercroft while playing the Shawzin Emote causing players to spawn into the Orowyrm fight in a broken state. 
  • Fixed Decree Fragment clipping into the ground for Clients in various Undercroft tiles. 
  • Fixed Duviri minimap markers not populating properly at the edge of the map. 
  • Fixed Duviri map briefly having the incorrect orientation upon opening it. 
  • Fixed Duviri Fish earned from Maw Feeding not using the rare item pop-up. 
  • Fixed being unable to drive Yareli’s Merulina through the Corrupted Jackal’s dome in the Circuit. 
  • Fixed account progress not being accurately updated in Profile when viewing in Duviri. 
  • Fixed disconnected ground textures in the Circuit tilesets (notably the Amphitheater tile). 
  • Fixed getting swung around violently by the Tubular Bell rope in Duviri if another player shoots it at the same time you interact with it. 
  • Fixed the Decree screen being stuck open when pulled into the Circuit lobby from Duviri. 
  • Fixed a long soft lock/hitch occurring to the third member of a squad that gets Host migrated into a new squad in the Circuit. 
  • Fixes towards objective marker pathing from the Duviri caves to the outside not updating if you take a different exit that isn’t part of the intended path. 
    • It won’t update immediately upon leaving the cave, it’ll update when players are about 50 meters above ground. 
  • Fixed rare issue where Clients could get stuck infinitely loading in Duviri after Host migration. 
  • Fixed picking up items in Duviri as Drifter auto-swapping your equipped weapon to the Sirocco.
  • Fixed players getting stuck in Warframe after using Transference immediately after completing the first Undercroft objective in Duviri. 
  • Fixed a grammar error in the confirmation prompt for Duviri Steel Path Circuit reward choice. 
  • Fixed Decree Fragments spawning in the ground in certain Undercroft tiles. 
  • Fixed players remaining in Warframe after using Transference after completing the first Undercroft in Duviri. 
  • Fixed players being stuck in a Warframe T-pose after defeating the Orowyrm.
  • Fixed receiving XP from a previous Orowyrm if you Host Migrated before opening the Chest and loaded into another Duviri mission.
  • Fixed Clients unable to use Transference in the Undercroft after defeating the Orowyrm. 

 

ENEMY BONEWIDOW NECRAMECH REWORK
For those who have ventured through Albrecht’s Laboratories and the Isolation Vaults, you may have become very familiar with the robust shield-wielding Necramech known as Bonewidow. Much of what has changed with Bonewidow in this update matches the Voidrig rework that occurred in the Whispers in the Walls update with the same goals: reducing the difficulty and improving the legibility of their attacks and abilities. 

Ultimately, since defeating enemy Necramechs is key to earning the components needed to build your own personal Necramech, we want their combat sequence to be much more attainable and enjoyable overall!  

The changes below apply to Bonewidows in the Laboratories and in the Isolation Vaults. 

General Changes:

  • Bonewidow can now receive damage anywhere (with damage attenuation) instead of just its weak points. Now, when its weak points are targeted it’ll receive increased damage. 
    • This change should make the fight much less taxing, while still incentivizing players to target weak points. Since it is now susceptible to attacks from all angles, damage attenuation (maximum damage per instance and per second caps) was added to maintain a level of difficulty and prevent it from being one-shot.
  • Bonewidow’s weak points have received a visual upgrade to make them easier to identify. They now appear as vials filled with a liquid substance that can be targeted and destroyed. 
  • Changed Bonewidow’s Archgun from the Mausolon to the Morgha (with modified slower Fire Rate). 
    • Voidrig uses the Mausolon so we wanted to give Bonewidow its own Archgun!
  • Removed the small amount of Shields it had (the stat not its actual physical Shield). 
  • The waypoint for Bonewidow will now appear as red (similar to Voidrig).  
  • Bonewidow enemy level will now show in the HUD. 
  • Fixed Bonewidow not recovering right after missing its dash attack.

Ability & Attack Changes: 

  • General: 
    • Bonewidow will now more frequently alternate between Melee and Ranged attacks to better engage with players. 
    • Added new VFX at the front of Bonewidow during its dash attack to more clearly communicate the damage width.
      • Also fixed a bug where players could get knocked down on the other side of a wall that the Bonewidow dashed into. 
    • Improved the aim direction when Bonewidow is shooting with the Morgha, so that it correctly points its Archgun in the direction of the players it is shooting at. 
  • Firing Line: 
    • Reduced the number of shots per burst from 2 to 1. 
    • Bonewidow will now rotate towards the player before using its Firing Line ability and will stay locked in place for the ability’s duration. 
    • Bonewidow will now pause for a brief moment after Firing Line before continuing other attacks. 
    • Updated the “beams” VFX to launch the “blast” after the beams collapse in on enemies so that the effect looks more impactful. 
      • This change has also been applied to player Bonewidow. 
    • Added new sound FX when Firing Line is cast. 
  • Shield Maiden: 
    • Improved the hitbox of its Shield to make it easier to shoot at and destroy. 
    • Increased Health of the Shield. 
    • Added new VFX when Shield Maiden has been cast (Shield has spawned).  
    • Bonewidow will now stagger when its Shield has been broken. 
    • Added new VFX when you damage its Shield to improve the readability of when it’s about to break. 
    • Added new sound FX for when Bonewidow casts Shield Maiden. 
    • Added new sound FX when the Shield takes damage from players and when it has been broken.
      • The sounds will also adjust based on the amount of damage being dealt to the Shield.   
    • Added new VFX to Shield Maiden’s ranged attack to better communicate when it is coming to help players dodge/escape it. 
  • Ironbride (Melee Attack): 
    • When hit by its Ironbride melee weapon, players will now get pushed back slightly and stagger briefly.
    • Added new 90 degrees rotation animation to help the Bonewidow transition more elegantly during its Melee attacks. 
    • Bonewidow can now perform a 3 hit combo attack with its Ironbride. 
      • This originates from the player version of Bonewidow’s Exalted Ironbride!

Also made the following changes to enemy Voidrigs:

  • Improved the accuracy of the direction enemy Voidrigs will look while they are moving using their dash attack.  

 

GI VOLUME LIGHTING UPDATES
The Orbiter, Railjack, and Drifter Camp have had their lighting system updated to the new GI Volume tech that was first introduced in the Whispers in the Walls update. However, all three locations will continue to receive tweaks to perfect the now-present GI Lighting.

Players will find the Orbiter, Drifter Camp, and Railjack lighting composed of real-time, contrasting lighting elements. We aim to integrate GI Volume lighting to best enhance the spectacle of these areas by portraying the shadows, colors, and character and environmental lighting more closely to how you’d imagine them. 

To be more specific, our GI Lighting creates better parity between how characters and the environment interact with bounced or ambient lighting. Additionally, the interior of your Orbiter uses many more sources of real-time direct light, much more than before! 

Whereas previous surfaces may have used little real-time contributions via baked-in lighting, the uptick in dynamic lighting and improved parity from our GI system allow objects to be more accurately lit within their surroundings, whether moving or static. More dynamic lighting typically means better, more interesting dynamic shadows. The goal is to achieve greater accuracy in character and object lighting within their surroundings! 

The Drifter Camp has introduced new Volumetric Fog systems to enhance the area’s feel. With GI Lighting, characters will be more accurately lit relative to their environment. These lighting systems combined create a new Drifter Camp feel. While this is the same system we used in Albrecht’s Laboratories, this is the first time we’ve tailored it to an outside landscape! We’ve further developed this Volumetric Fog system to better suit outdoor environments. Here, the sun bursts through layers of fog and vegetation, while the Orbiter’s lights illuminate the murky fog in front of the Liset’s teleporter. 

Other GI Volume Lighting Updates:

  • Enabled GI lighting for “glass”/transparent materials on Warframes. Includes (but not limited to) Gara’s glass parts, Sevagoth Glaukus’ transparent parts, Nidus Phryke’s transparent parts, and more. The benefit is that they all look upgraded and improved thanks to the way they interact with areas where GI lighting is enabled. 
    • This fixes Energy colors on Warframes with “glass” materials not taking on their Energy colors and being blown out. This would occur in the Sanctum Anatomica and Albrecht’s Laboratories tileset because it was not playing nicely with the new GI lighting system. So, we’ve enabled GI lighting on these materials so that they interact and look better in these areas!
  • Improved Volumetric Fog’s color grading to avoid oversaturation and darkening issues in some instances. 
  • Made optimizations to when Volumetric Fog Quality is set to HIGH.  
  • Made some bug fixes and improvements to Volumetric Fog’s sampling math. 

If you see any broken lighting in the Railjack, Orbiter and/or Drifter Camp due to the new GI Volume lighting, please include a screenshot in your bug report so our incredible lighting team can investigate. 
 

KUBROW FUR UPDATES
The long awaited Kubrow Fur Updates are here! Your loyal canine Companions are now sporting more realistic fur that you’ll want to bury your face into. We’ve made the following updates to Kubrow fur to achieve a more true to life feel: 

  • Improved lighting and shading response in different environments for better texture resolution. 
  • Improved fur density so that it looks softer and fluffier.
  • Added depth to fur color and shading. 
    • Players may want to revisit their Kubrow(s) fur fashion to adjust to their liking in light of these changes! 

The before and after shots below were both taken in the Orbiter with the brand new GI lighting, so the before picture is not perfectly accurate to what you would have seen on the public build before the update, but should give you a good idea of the improvements listed above! 

 

The above changes only apply to Companion Kubrows for now, Feral/Enemy Kubrows will receive the same updates in a future update. 

Known issue: Changing the colors of the Nexus Fur Pattern leaves your Kubrow with an orange/green skin under fur. 

 

HAZTECH & SMELTER SUIT DRIFTER CONVERSION

Representing the Solaris is now possible with your Drifter! The Smelter and Haztech Masks, Pauldrons, Cuirass, Greaves, and Apparel have all been converted to be able to be equipped onto your Drifter. 

 

Purchasing or crafting any of these customizations will include both the Operator and Drifter variants! For those of you that already own Smelter/Haztech items, the Drifter versions will be added to your inventory upon downloading the update and logging in. 

 

GENERAL ADDITIONS

  • New Somachord Tones have been added to [REDACTED]. Scanning them will unlock the following tracks for your Orbiter’s Somachord: 
    • Entwined Forever
    • Granum Void 
  • Over 100 Albrecht’s Laboratories-themed Dojo Decorations have been added. To help you find them in the list, they are each titled with “Entrati Lab”.
  • Added new End of Mission screen medals for the following game modes:
    • Void Cascade – Most Thrax Kills
    • Void Flood – Most Vitoplast Deposited
    • Void Armageddon – Most Argozene Collected 
  • Added teleport volumes to transversal gaps in the Awakening Quest that require you to Bullet Jump over them and smoothed the collision of the rock walls to make them easier to climb.
    • These changes were made to help players along in their process of learning and familiarize themselves with Warframe’s controls. Now, if you fall into the gaps you will spawn on the other side to proceed through the Quest and won’t be as likely to get stuck while climbing the walls.
  • Added new preset Battlegroups to the Simulacrum to allow for players to summon a variety of enemies in one easy step! Each Squad summons 20 predetermined enemies to test your builds on. Each Squad is unlocked once you have scanned 30% of the Faction — meaning this feature will allow you to spawn in enemies you haven’t fully scanned. Squads are available for the following Factions:
    • Grineer
    • Corpus
    • Infestation
    • Orokin
    • Narmer
    • The Murmur
    • Sentient

GENERAL CHANGES

  • Player avatars no longer get stuck at corners of obstacles when going up a slope or when sliding along a wall that isn’t perfectly vertical. Sticky corners be gone!
    • This was a consistent issue for Warframe over its development, and the result of this change should be a more fluid movement and parkour experience for players!
  • We have updated Operator Voice Lines for across various Quests, using the voice actors for Drifters introduced with The New War. While we cherish the contributions of our original Operator Voice Actors, our goal was to ensure that the Drifter voice actors play their Operator counterparts. This ensures voice actor consistency across the game, which is especially important in our main narrative story. 
    • The following Quests and scenarios feature the new dialog recordings:
      • The Second Dream
      • The War Within
      • The Sacrifice
      • Apostasy
      • Chimera Prologue
      • Erra
    • In-mission Operator barks (ex: “My Warframe is strong”) have not been touched in this update, but will be revised in a future release.
  • Secondary and Universal Ammo Pickups will now add charges to the Tome Weapons’ (Grimoire and Dante’s Noctua) Alt-Fire. 
    • Since the Grimoire and Dante’s Noctua have infinite ammo, these pickups had no use. So we’ve given them a purpose for the Grimoire and all Tome weapons in the future. 
  • Kubrow/Kavat Incubator changes: 
    • You can now breed a Kubrow/Kavat Companion while also having one equipped at the same time! 
      • How it used to work: Incubating a new Companion would unequip the one currently equipped for the entire duration of the incubation. This also meant you had no access to the other Companion options available. 
      • How it works now: When you incubate a new Companion while also having one equipped, your equipped Companion will remain active in the Incubator segment in your Orbiter. Meaning you will be able to regress its genetic aging, learn more about it, consign, create Imprints and rename the equipped Companion. Once breeding has completed, the Incubator will close up with a notification to claim and name your new Companion. Once you’ve claimed your new furry friend, it will automatically be put into Stasis to access later, and the Incubator will swap back to displaying your equipped Companion. 
      • If you do not have an equipped Companion at the time of claiming the new one, your furry friend will be automatically set to roam your Orbiter instead. 
    • Imprint Menu Improvements:
      • You no longer need to have the Kubrow/Kavat that you want to create Imprints equipped to do so! 
        • Previously: After creating Imprints of the equipped Companion, it would unequip them. 
        • Now: It will still unequip the Companion if you create Imprints of an equipped Companion, but! You can continue to create Imprints of the Companions that aren’t equipped. This avoids having to equip a Companion via the Arsenal, go to Incubator, create Imprints, and go back to Arsenal to equip a new Companion, etc. etc. 
      • Added the option to mature baby Kubrows/Kavats from the Imprint UI. 
        • This prevents players from having to equip the baby Companion via the Arsenal to then mature it at the Incubator. 
        • Once they are mature, you can continue with the Imprint creation process without ever having to leave this screen!
  • Players who did not receive the Gigelor Prime Syandana with their purchase of the Gigelorum Prime Syandana before Thursday, March 4th @ ~3 PM ET, will now have it in their accounts after downloading the update and logging in! The original PSA provides more context for those interested. 
  • The Inactivity Penalty will now cause your Warframe to drop any crucial mission items (ex: Data Mass) if you are inactive while in control of Operator. 
    • This is to allow active players to continue on the mission by picking up those items from the inactive player. 
  • Tyl Regor should attack players more often in his Assassination missions! Made minor improvements to Manic enemy logic in his fight as well.
  • Slightly reduced jittering animation on the Necramite Decoration. 
  • Updated Archimedean Yonta’s Thrax Plasm dialogue prompt to say “Trade in Lua Thrax Plasm”.
  • Updated Trinity’s Blessing description to accurately communicate the damage reduction offered by it. 
    • Previously the description indicated it “[gave allies] some damage resistance”, which is not accurate as damage resistance is a separate mechanic not offered by Blessing.
    • Now reads: “Restore the health and shields of nearby allies while reducing the damage they take from enemies.”
  • Updated various Open World resource descriptions to indicate the planet they are from, and to more clearly communicate acquisition paths for Mining Resources specifically.
  • Updated “Don’t Blow It” Nightwave Act description to reflect the new Disruption Node on Deimos.
  • Removed mention of needing to ride Merulina in the Surging Blades Augment description to indicate it can be used with the new Loyal Merulina Augment.
    • Now reads: “Activate Aquablades when the ability is in use or cooldown to throw one blade. […] No cost to throw with Merulina.”
  • Updated Trinity’s Well of Life ability description to better explain its mechanic: 
    • “Create a well of life on an enemy. Allies near the target gradually regenerate health and are immune to Status Effects. Status Effect damage intended for nearby allies will be absorbed by the enemy. Allies gain additional health when they attack the enemy.”
  • Changed Titania’s Tribute Thorns Ability description from “Damage” to “Damage Reduction” to better specify the buff’s effect. 
  • Updated the materials on the Nidus Phryke Skin to increase the overall level of detail and quality of the textures. 
    • Players may need to tweak their fashion frame to accommodate for these adjustments, but should notice an overall improvement on this Deluxe Skin!
  • To fix cases of infinite bleedout (often from a combination of the Undying Will Mod and Oberon’s Renewal), Bleedout Reduction is now capped at 90%. 
  • Added a new method for calculating the low and high Energy colors to add more depth to the colors. Also made minor changes to Energy color blending on VFX for more depth in the colors. 
  • Made subtle updates to the eye shader. 
  • You can now chat link any and all fish types from the Open Landscapes! 
  • The Manus Sumdali can now be chat linked if you own it. 
  • Changed the “Crystal Clear” (Complete 3 waves of Mirror Defense) Nightwave Act name to “Mirror, Mirror”. 
    • The Act was originally named for Tyana Pass (Mars), since it was the only Mirror Defense node. Now that we have Munio (Deimos), we’ve renamed it to better encompass both!
  • Cross Platform Save players who have not received their Synkra Syandana after attempting to update their email address before Hotfix 35.1.2, now have it in their accounts with this update! 
  • Updated the hit VFX from ranged weapons on environment (ex: the bullet holes) – has the added benefit of being more optimized as well. 
  • Slightly updated the Dojo Research icons. 
  • Updated the following Topaz Archon Embed Bonus descriptions to make them more accurate:
    • “Regenerate X Shields when you kill an enemy with Blast Damage.”
    • “Increase Secondary Critical Chance by X% every time you kill an enemy affected by Heat Status. Max X%.” 
  • Added a unique trait description to Acrid’s upgrade screen: “Shots apply a guaranteed Toxin Status Effect”. 
  • Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance teleport visualization will now not appear if teleportation is blocked or not possible (obstacles in the path, gaps, etc.). 
  • Updated the Grimoire’s primary fire throw and release timing to create a more consistent feeling while firing its projectiles (this is purely a visual change!) 
  • You will now receive a message when attempting to invite a Cross Platform Play player while Cross Platform Play toggle is disabled that informs them they need to turn it on to be able to invite them. 
  • The following Eximus Units will now inherit the abilities/attacks of their base unit: 
    • Ancient – grapple player and pull them in
    • Scorpion – grapple player and pull them in
    • Flameblade – teleport 
    • Brood Mother – spawn Maggots 
    • Heavy Gunner – ground slam
    • Shockwave Moa – shockwave
    • Comba – magnetic attack
    • Sniper Crewman – spawn Ratels 
  • Made improvements to waypoint pathing while under water in a specific Grineer Sealab tile.
  • Updated Mod Drop Chance Booster description to include its impact on Endo and Arcane Drop rates. 
    • Now reads: “Doubles the chance that enemies will drop Mods, Endo, and Arcanes.”
  • Improved default orientation and sizes of 3D previews in the Dojo Decoration menu.
  • Cinta’s main Blueprint is now tradeable! 
  • The Prominence Wisp Totem Decoration can now be donated to the Dojo! 
  • Updated the following Riven Challenges descriptions to better explain what is needed to complete it: 
    • “Get a Headshot kill while Aim Glide” is now “Get a Headshot kill during Aim Glide” 
  • The Grimoire will now be in a closed state when holstered, to prevent weird animation issues.
  • Removed the Narmer Thumper and Narmer Thumper Bull Codex entries, since only the Narmer Thumper Doma can spawn during Narmer Bounties, making it impossible to complete these entries. 
  • Helminth now has the “FEED” button available once you’ve fed it a Resource. Previously you’d get the “FEED” prompt only upon exiting the screen after feeding.

TOP FIXES

  • Fixed Shard Ephemeras not properly showing Tauforged VFX for equipped Tauforged Violet, Topaz, and Emerald Archon Shards.
  • Fixed Arctic Eximus creating a brief map-wide slow upon spawning. 
  • Fixed Ally Highlight applying to Sentinels and Companions in the Arsenal. 
  • Fixed Lunaro Arena Captura scene forcing players to use Conclave Loadouts. 
  • Fixed being able to Heavy Attack mid-air. Now mid-air Heavy Attacks will perform a Heavy Ground Slam as intended. 
  • Fixed being unable to perform a Melee Ground Slam if started while in Transference. 
  • Fixed Dreamer’s Wrath description stating that it increases Opportunity Window instead of Opportunity Chance. 
  • Fixed Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance missing SFX on Heavy Attacks. 
  • Fixed some of Wisp’s abilities not consuming Inner Might upon cast. 
  • Fixed various SFX not being replicated for Clients in Alchemy missions. 
  • Fixed enemies in Grendel’s gut instantly dying if he jumps off a cliff with them inside. Now they will respawn safely on the ledge they were thrown off of.
  • Fixed Energy color not applying to the entirety of the transparent materials of Sevagoth’s Glaukus Shoulder Armor, the Gillychap Shoulder Plate, and Sevagoth Glaukus’ Shadow. 
    • Players may want to tweak their fashion frame to accommodate for this fix! 
  • Fixed Sporothrix’s Volatile Variant Augment Mod not working for Clients. 
  • Fixed being unable to Solo extract from Alchemy missions. 
  • Fixed Helminth flower placement using the locations chosen from a player’s Cross Platform Save PC account, even if they had chosen a Console account as their primary. 
  • Fixed Wolf Sledge and Sigma & Octantis not being able to activate Tennokai (combo counter was still being consumed). 
  • Fixed bug where Hydroid’s Passive Corrosive mark on enemies would not show up for other players.
  • Fixed Hydroid’s Passive causing other Armor stripping abilities to not work. 
  • Fixed Disclipline’s Merit’s “Opportunities [for Tennokai] occur every 4 melee hits” not counting all the hits from an Exalted Melee Weapon and standard Melee Weapon when equipped on both. 
  • Fixed Yareli being unable to interact with Operatives in the Abyssal Zone mission while she’s riding Merulina. 
  • Fixed Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance path being blocked after swapping to and from Operator. 
  • Fixed the Melee Arcane Adapter not being listed first in the End of Mission screen when rewarded from Netracells.

  • Fixed kills from Styanax’s Final Stand not counting towards the “Power Trip” daily Nightwave Act. 
  • Fixed Vauban’s Minelayer and Bastille not consuming Arcane Steadfast stacks. 
  • Fixed low framerate (below 30 FPS) affecting the efficacy of Damage Attenuation. 
    • A combination of low frame rate and high fire rate/damage weapons was allowing enemies with Damage Attenuation (Archons, Kuva Liches, etc.) to be quickly one-shotted. Basically, low frame rates would extend the time it took for Damage Attenuation to kick-in and ramp up in relation to the damage per second being dealt. We found that this issue was present before the changes we made to Damage Attenuation in the Abyss of Dagath update, but it only really became apparent afterwards due to the increase in maximum damage per damage instance and damage per second. So we’ve fixed this unintended interaction by ensuring frame rate has no impact on Damage Attenuation. For reassurance, this fix has not changed anything about the current intended functions of Damage Attenuation. 
  • Fixed Melee Heavy Slide Attacks not functioning with various mechanics, including but not limited to Tennokai, Heavy Attack Decrees (ex: Salted Wound), etc.
  • Fixed Status Effects negated by Qorvex’s Disometric Guard still causing the Riven Challenges with the “without getting afflicted by a Status Effect” condition to fail. 
  • Fixed Profit Takers Stage 4 cinematic not playing and leading to loss of function in the Steel Path fight. 
  • Fixed equipping a Violet Archon Shard in the rightmost slot of the Embed screen and leaving some of the other slots empty causing the Electricity Damage Bonus to be increased beyond intended values. 
  • Fixed Client weapons only inflicting their damage to enemies in Zephyr’s Tornadoes, but not Status Effects. 
  • Fixed Zephyr’s Tornadoes losing their hitbox for player weapons and lose their adapted Status after reaching the damage cap. 
  • Fixed the Capture target on Jupiter becoming invincible if downed while flying around on their jetpack. 
  • Fixed an issue where if you had any Heavy Attack Efficiency and your Combo Duration was zero, you would immediately get all of your Initial Combo back instead of it regenerating overtime.
  • Fixed the Mandonel retaining a fully charged (unreleased) shot even after performing an action that should reset it as intended (rolling, reloading, etc.). 
  • Fixed Latron Incarnon’s “Swift Punishment” Evolution tooltip missing the  “With Sprint Speed 1.2 or Higher” buff description. 
  • Fixed Familiar and Advances Debt-Bonds rarely showing up in Ticker’s Cases offerings. 
    • Now, the Cases she offers will always include at least 3x Common, 1x Uncommon, 1x Rare Cases to ensure that rare Debt-Bonds can be acquired at any given time. 
  • Fixed case where Survival mission would not start properly if the starting transmission was interrupted by opening the pause menu.   
  • Fixed bug that prevented Gara’s Passive from being triggered by casting Splinter Storm.

    • We removed the option to prevent this bug from occuring again. 
  • Fixed Vauban’s Minelayer and Bastille not consuming Arcane Steadfast stacks. 
  • Fixed the Rakta Dark Dagger and Sancti Magistar not giving Shields and Health respectively for damage dealt to enemy Overguard (it previously only counted damage dealt to enemy. Shields & Health).

  • Fixed the “Dormizone” fast travel option appearing in the pause menu while in the Dormizone during the Duviri Paradox Quest. 
    • Selecting this option would prompt the “Leave Duviri” popup and selecting “Yes” would cause a black screen to occur and the Lotus suddenly saying “Dream” in the spookiest jump scare moment. For the sake of our hearts, we have removed that rogue Dormizone button that didn’t belong there in the first place. 
  • Fixed HUD buff icons lingering and overlapping menu UI.

Warframe – Ver. 35.1.2

  • Release date: February 28th 2024 (North America, Europe) / February 29th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

Changes: 

  • Tusk Dargyns will no longer spawn in the Plains of Eidolon during Saya’s Vigil Quest. 
    • Killing these airborne enemies can be a challenge for new players, so we have removed them as they could prevent players from progressing through the Quest. 
  • Players with Overguard are now immune to the slow effect from enemy Necramech’s Necraweb ability. 
  • Slightly turned down the Grimoire’s projectile firing and impact sounds. 
  • Tweaked Konzu’s transmission timing when completing Eidolon Hunt Bounties. 

Cross Platform Save Change:

  • Changed how the Synkra Syandana is delivered based on Cross Platform Save linking status: 
    • Prior to this Hotfix, the Syandana was exclusively rewarded for including an email address in the Console “Account” tab in Settings. Now, once a player has linked a Console account, they will automatically receive the Synkra Syandana instead of going through the aforementioned steps. 
      • Note: Console players who have not linked accounts will still be able to receive the Synkra Syndana by adding their email address in the “Account” tab in Settings (full steps on how to do so here). 
    • Moving forward, the email address option will no longer appear for Cross Platform Save Console accounts. This is so that we can prevent potential issues associated with being able to change your email address to something other than your PC account’s address (which is required to retain your PC login access). 
    • For Cross Platform Save players who have not received their Synkra Syandana after attempting to update their email address before this Hotfix, the Dante Unbound Update in March will deliver it to you once it has launched.

Fixes: 

  • Fixed Overguard earned on Warframe in Duviri from the Killer’s Confidence Decree causing players to be indefinitely invulnerable in the Undercroft. 
    • Now, Overguard earned from the Decree will be cleared from Warframe after entering the Undercroft. 
  • Fixed Lohk Surges not spawning in Zariman missions when started from the Chrysalith immediately after completing the Angels of Zariman Quest. 
    • This also resolves being unable to progress in Bounties that had the “Find and activate X Lohk Surges”. 
  • Fixed Companions being able to pick up Keyglyphs in the Anchorhold, which would prevent Squads from being able to interact with the terminal to begin the search for the Netracell. As reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1381469-unable-to-proceed-past-1st-room-in-netracell-mission/
  • Fixed the Munio, Mirror Defense mission not counting towards the “Crystal Clear” Nightwave Act (Complete 3 waves of Mirror Defense). 
  • Fixed case where pre-New War players replaying the Vox Solaris Quest could matchmake with post-New War players after selecting a Bounty in Fortuna. 
  • Fixed Clients being unable to use the interactable Blinkpads in Open Landscapes. 
  • Fixed casting Grendel’s Feast on the Dax Equitem in Duviri causing the Dax to disappear off his Kaithe, rendering the fight impossible to complete. 
    • To prevent similar issues from occurring, the Dax Equitem is now properly immune to Warframe CC abilities as intended for a mini-boss. 
  • Fixed unread Clan/Alliance Inbox messages at times causing players to be unable to login. 
  • Fixed Clients at times falling out of the map after rush chomping while Maw Feeding in Duviri. 
  • Fixed being able to pull out a fishing spear while Titania is in her Razorwing form, causing the player to lose functionality. 
  • Worth noting that she was never able to actually use the spear in this form, as intended.
  • Fixed the Railjack Cephalon Blueprint still being available for purchase in the in-game Market. 
    • Since the Whispers in the Walls Update, the Blueprint is now sent via Inbox message after starting the Rising Tide Quest from the Codex – so there is no longer a need for it to still appear in the Market.
  • Fixed physics getting whacky after using Qorvex’s Chyrinka Pillar to dive into a Sanctuary Onslaught portal or to approach the closed Fortuna elevator doors in the Orb Vallis. 
  • Fixed the Shard Hex and Shard Bane Ephemeras not properly reflecting the correct yellow color of embedded Amber Archon Shards. 
  • Fixed Translocators (where enemies spawn from) in The Index missions creating a huge field of low-rest blue particles that hang in the air indefinitely. 
  • Fixed extreme blowout VFX after equipping the Bloodshed Sigil on both the front and back of your Warframe and setting its colors to white. 
    • We’re aware of a similar issue occurring with the Catena Prime Ephemera. 
  • Fixed the Legacy Mastery Sigil not appearing correctly for certain Legendary Mastery Ranks. 
  • Fixed a crash after placing a Domestik Drone in the Orbiter and going to the Drifter Camp Captura Scene. 
  • Fixed a script error in Zephyr’s Tail Wind ability. 

Warframe – Ver. 35.1.1

  • Release date: February 21st 2024 (North America, Europe) / February 22nd 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

Top Fix: 

  • Fixed not receiving rewards after completing the first rotation of an Alchemy mission, as reported here

Cross Platform Play/Save Changes & Fixes: 

  • Founders items can now be accessed on platforms other than PC when the chosen Primary Account is on a Console platform. 
    • We want to thank our Founders for their continued support from the start and are honored to have them here with us to enjoy Cross Platform Play and Save almost 11 years later! We greatly appreciate our day 1 supporters and thoroughly enjoy seeing them continue to sport their Founders gear. If you still can’t access your Founders items on your primary Console account after this Hotfix, please submit a ticket to support.warframe.com.
    • Note: The Excalibur Prime Dark and Bright Glyphs are not accessible at the moment, but we will have a follow up fix to ensure they are in the near future!
  • Fixed the PlayStation-exclusive Obsidian Syandana being visible and equippable from the Drifter Clothing menu on other Platforms via Cross Platform Save. 
  • Fixed players who linked their iOS account for Cross Platform Save not receiving the iOS Pre-Order / Day 1 Rewards (Bombyx Syandana and 3-Day Affinity Booster) in their Cross Platform Save accounts.
    • For affected accounts, an inbox message containing the rewards will be delivered after downloading this Hotfix and logging in.

Changes: 

  • Lowered the Akbolto’s Mastery Rank requirement from 9 to 8. 
    • The Akbolto is a manufacturing requirement for the Akjagara, which is a Mastery Rank 8 weapon, so we reduced it so that players can craft the Akjagara without having to reach Mastery Rank 9.  

Warframe – Ver. 35.1.0

  • Release date: February 20th 2024 (North America, Europe) / February 21st 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

NEW PLAYER PATH IMPROVEMENTS

The next batch of changes to improve the new player experience are here! In this update, we  address Quest progress obstacles and rebalance the Fortuna Syndicates rank-up requirements to make them more accessible. 

Quest Changes

Saya’s Vigil Quest Changes: 

  • “Locate the Shatter-Lock pieces” stage: 
    • The Grineer Armored Vault in the Plains of Eidolon that contains one of the Glass Shards that needs to be scanned will now be opened by default. 
      • Before, you would have to interact with the unlock terminal for the doors to open. This made finding the Glass Shard difficult, as players would, understandably, overlook the locked Vault. 
    • Moved the Glass Shard in the Grineer Armored Vault from a hard to see corner to the floor. 
    • Added a highlight to the Glass Shard to make them more visible. 
  • “Board Hek’s Galleon” stage: 
    • Reduced the level of enemies from 5-8 to 4-5. 
    • Reduced the level of the Nox that players have to defeat to progress from 12 to 7. 

The Sacrifice Quest Changes: 

  • Added 60x Kuva to the “Explore Lua” mission rewards. 
    • Since 60x Kuva is required to craft Excalibur Umbra to proceed in the Quest, we want to prevent players from having to interrupt their Quest flow in order to obtain some. 

Vox Solaris Quest Changes: 

  • “Talk to Thursby in Fortuna” stage: Lowered the Health of the Corpus Spy Drone (from 8,000 to 2,500) you have to shoot down and hack to progress. 

Solaris United & Vox Solaris Syndicate Sacrifice Changes: 

The Rank-up Sacrifices for Solaris United and Vox Solaris have undergone a rebalance! Both have had their requirements significantly reduced to help make these Syndicates much more accessible for players. We also made some slight changes to the Rank requirements of some of Little Duck’s Offerings – read on for specifics on all of the above! 

Solaris United Sacrifice Changes: 

  • Rank 1 “Outworlder”
    • Training Deb Bonds – Reduced to 2 (was 13)
  • Rank 2 “Rapscallion”
    • Shelter Debt Bonds – Reduced to 3 (was 15) 
    • Training Debt Bonds – Reduced to 2 (was 12) 
  • Rank 3 “Doer”
    • Medical Debt Bonds – Reduced to 4 (was 13) 
    • Shelter Debt Bonds – Reduced to 3 (was 15) 
    • Training Debt Bonds – Reduced to 2 (was 10) 
  • Rank 4 “Cove”
    • Advances Debt Bonds – Reduced to 5 (was 13) 
    • Medical Debt Bonds – Reduced to 4 (was 10) 
    • Shelter Debt Bonds – Reduced to 3 (was 12) 
  • Rank 5 “Old Mate” 
    • Familial Debt Bonds – Reduced to 5 (was 10) 
      • Advances Debt Bonds – Reduced to 5 (was 12) 
      • Medical Debt Bonds – Reduced to 3 (was 12) 

Vox Solaris Sacrifice Changes: 

  • Rank 1 “Operative” – No changes
  • Rank 2 “Agent” 
    • Gyromag Systems – Reduced to 1 (was 8) 
    • Vega Toroid – Reduced to 1 (was 5) 
  • Rank 3 “Hand” 
    • Atmo Systems – Reduced to 1 (was 5) 
    • Calda Toroid – Reduced to 1 (was 5) 
  • Rank 4 “Instrument” 
    • Repeller Systems – Reduced to 1 (was 3) 
    • Sola Toroid – Reduced to 1 (was 5) 
  • Rank 5 “Shadow” 
    • Repeller Systems – Removed (was 3) 
    • Crisma Toroid – Reduced to 1 (was 3) 

Little Duck’s Offerings Rank Changes: 

  • Changed the Vox Solaris Rank requirement for purchasing Gyromag Systems from Rank 3 to Rank 1 and changed Atmos Systems from Rank 3 to Rank 2. 
    • Since Rank 2 requires a Gyromag System Sacrifice, and Rank 3 requires an Atmo Systems Sacrifice, we adjusted their Rank requirements so that players could acquire them with Standing to rank up. This logic was already applied to the Repeller Systems, which you can purchase at Rank 3 and need for the Rank 4 & 5 Sacrifices, so we did the same with these. 

 

New Earth Junction Reward: “Dreamer’s Bond” Aura Mod
Upon completing the Earth Junction, players will now be rewarded with a new Aura Mod: 

Dreamer’s Bond
Squad receives +0.3 Energy Regen/s and +1.5 Health Regen/s. 

The intent is to get new players familiar with Aura Mods earlier in the game. Which is also why we have temporarily assigned it the Madurai Polarity, which matches the Aura Slot for our starter Warframes Mag and Volt (Excalibur has an unassigned Aura Polarity). We will be changing its Polarity to Universal (can be equipped onto any Aura Polarity to increase mod capacity) in the Dante Unbound update, so that all Warframes can benefit from equipping it!

Acquiring outside of Junction:
For those who have already completed the Earth Junction, Dreamer’s Bond will be sent via inbox message upon login after downloading this update. We have also added it to the Nightwave Cred Offerings rotation! 
 

Additions: 

  • To celebrate the launch of Warframe on iOS, the new Starter Weapon Pack is available for purchase on all platforms (one per account) and includes: 
    • Aeolak Rifle (Max Rank) 
    • Serration Mod (Max Rank) 
    • 100 Platinum 
  • New Somachord songs are now available at Varzia’s Prime Resurgence Offerings for Aya! Enjoy the signature themes of these Prime Warframe that were featured in their respective trailers.  
    • Gauss Prime Theme (also known as “Redline”
    • Grendel Prime Theme 
    • Gara Prime Theme
    • Hildryn Prime Theme
    • Hydroid Prime Theme
    • Khora Prime Theme
    • Nekros Prime Theme
    • Nidus Prime Theme
    • Oberon Prime Theme
    • Octavia Prime Theme
    • Revenant Prime Theme
    • Vauban Prime Theme
      • Note: The Somachord songs may take a moment to appear in Varzia’s Offerings – rest assured that they will be there momentarily after the update has launched!

Cross Platform Play/Save Changes & Fixes: 

  • Fixed being unable to progress in the Awakening Quest after Merging an account that had completed with an account that hadn’t yet.  
  • Fixed Exalted Weapons losing their progress after merging accounts. 
    • Since a Warframe can only have a singular Exalted Weapon, the Primary account would override the Secondary’s Exalted Weapon progress, regardless of its state. Now, when accounts are merged, the account with the Exalted Weapon that has more Forma and Rank/Affinity will be prioritized. 
  • Fixed the warning pop-up informing players that they cannot trade Platinum with Nintendo Switch accounts (as intended with the Platform specifications for Cross Platform Trading & Gifting) stating that the trade has failed instead of specifying why. 
    • This would occur specifically when adding Platinum to the Trade window after another item or after attempting to add it a second time. 
  • Fixed cases where players would not be properly Host Migrated if the Host was on a Console platform. 
  • Fixed having both an incubating and equipped Companion active at the same time after merging an account that is Incubating a Companion with an account that has a Companion equipped. 
    • Now, when merging accounts in these states, the equipped Companion will be unequipped. 
  • Fixed players on other platforms being unable to add an Xbox player as a friend if they had spaces in their alias. 
  • Fixed a rare issue where the “You are already logged in. Login here and terminate the other connection?” message would pop up repeatedly after linking a Console account to a brand new PC account and using the Companion App. 
  • Fixed Operator/Drifter Configs not retaining their assigned customizations after making a Console account the primary during merge. This would often appear as if Config A’s customizations had been copied over to all Configs. 
    • Any future merges will now take the primary account’s Configs. For existing merges, the Configs have been reverted to those from the primary account.
  • Fixed case where you could end up with more Loadouts than Loadout Slots after merging accounts.
    • This was caused by Loadout Slots from the Initiate Power Pack and those from Mastery Ranks not carrying over into the merged account. Players would see, for example, “SLOTS 4/3” in the Loadout screen after merging.
      • Note: Merged accounts that were created from an account with the max amount of purchasable Slots (24) with one that also had a lot of Loadouts will likely still have more Loadouts than Slots even with the above fix. These Loadouts are still accessible/usable, but in order to create new Loadouts you will have to get below the 24 Slot limit by deleting some.  

Albrecht’s Laboratories Changes & Fixes: 

  • Enemies hit with Amphor’s AOE will now count towards the “Hit Enemies with X Amphor” Alchemy Bounty Challenge. 
    • Previously, the challenge required a direct hit to count as progress towards the challenge, so we made it much more forgiving. In light of this change, we have slightly increased the required amount of enemies needed to hit to complete the challenge now that it is easier to gain progress: 
      • Low tier Bounty: From 5 to 6
      • Mid tier Bounty: From 10 to 12
      • Higher tier Bounty: From 15 to 18
  • Vitreum scanning duration now scales according to squad size in the Effervo Assassination mission: 
    • Solo player: 30 seconds
    • Two players: 27 seconds
    • Three players: 24 seconds
    • Full squad: 20 seconds (this was the original duration for all squad sizes prior to this change) 
  • Removed the “Find X Murmur Sarcophages” challenge from Alchemy Bounties. 
    • There was an issue with not enough Sarcophages spawning in Alchemy Bounties, making it impossible to complete the challenge, so it has been removed. 
  • Added an eyelid to the Vitreum that reacts based on its various scanning states. 
  • Fixed only 3 Acolytes spawning in total during Steel Path Alchemy missions. 
    • They will now continue to spawn in intervals as they usually do in endless mission types. 
  • Fixed the maximum number of Vitreums that can be activated simultaneously in the Effervo Assassination mission not scaling based on Squad size if started from Sanctum Anatomica’s navigation. 
  • Fixed Netracell Keyglyphs equipping onto the player closest to the terminal instead of the player that actually selected it. 
  • Fixed Clients seeing Keyglyph names in the Host’s language instead of their own in the pop-up that occurs when picked up.
  • The Netracell search radius will now gradually shrink rather than suddenly jump after hacking the Pom-3 terminals. 
  • Repositioned and condensed the Netracell objective text so that it takes up less screen space. 
  • Fixed Exhaustion Keyglyph’s Energy drain causing the Sanguine Keyglyph to trigger and deal Bleed Status in Netracell missions. 
  • Fixed Host migration causing the next round of pressure vents in Alchemy missions to spawn far from the Crucible’s location. 
  • Fixed Clients switching to their Primary weapon after throwing an Amphor in Alchemy missions instead of their Secondary if they had it equipped upon picking up the Amphor. 
  • Fixed another section in the Netracell being accessible and bypassed by Titania in Razorwing.
  • Fixed enemies continuing to spawn outside of The Fragmented’s arena (Effervo, Assassination node) after Host Migration. 
  • Fixed Murmur Eyes visually lingering after killing their Hurling Fragments with damage over time effects at the same time they expire. 
  • Slight timing tweak to when the audio transmission plays after hacking the terminal in the Persto, Deimos Survival mission. 
  • Made tweaks (pacing, repeat frequency, etc.) to the audio transmissions in the Deimos Assassination (Effervo), Alchemy (Cambire), and Netracell missions. 
  • Made an extremely minor tweak to Eximus units spawn timing in Alchemy missions so that they spawn a tad faster.  
  • Fixed lighting issue that would cause the depth fog to pop randomly in Albrecht’s Laboratories. 

Changes: 

  • You will no longer be forcibly dismounted from your Kaithe in Duviri when near the Table for Two and Void Mirror objectives. In its place, a message will pop up to inform players that they must dismount first. 
    • Players are also no longer blocked from mounting Kaithe while engaged with these objectives. 
    • This initial restriction was added due to players on Kaithes causing animation issues for their mirrored Operators. Now your Mirror version will disappear when you are on a Kaithe to prevent those animation issues from occurring.
  • Adjusted Riven type drop rates in Sorties, Archon Hunts, Steel Path Circuit, Nihil’s Oubliette and Acrithis’ and Pallidino’s Veiled Riven Offerings to be more proportional to weapon ratios.
    • In all Riven sources other than Sorties and Archon Hunts, each Riven type has had an equal chance of being rewarded, meaning you are as likely to get a Kitgun Riven as you are a Melee Riven, despite Kitgun Rivens having 6 possible weapons and Melee having well over 100. Now, Kitguns and Zaws are the least likely to be rolled, followed by (in ascending order) Shotguns, Rifle, Pistol, and Melee. This order is applied to both guaranteed and drop table Rivens: 
    • Drop rates for guaranteed Rivens (Acrithis, Pallidino, and Nihil’s Oubliette): 
      • Kitgun 3.5%
      • Zaw 3.5% 
      • Shotgun 8%
      • Rifle 25% 
      • Pistol 25% 
      • Melee 35% 
    • Drop rates for each type have been adjusted in places where Rivens are only a portion of the drop tables (Sorties, Archon Hunt, Duviri Steel Path Circuit). The total chance for a Riven remains the same (ex: Sorties still have a total 28% chance of rewarding a Riven). For full details, visit the public drop tables. 
  • Thrax Centurions and Legatus enemies will now clear all active Status Effects when transitioning to their spectral forms.
    • They were already immune to new Status Effects in their spectral form, but any Status Effects they had before transitioning would still persist. This led to issues such as their transition animation being slowed down considerably by Cold Status Effects that were inflicted while in their corporeal form. 
  • Refined the volume of Tombfinger’s explosion sound effects.
  • Removed the “Arcane” button from the Foundry. 
    • When the Arcane Segment was added to the Orbiter in 2022, this button was left in the Foundry as a means for players to get used to the new location. Now that it’s been over a year, the Arcane Segment is officially the spot for all things Arcanes!

Optimizations: 

  • Made optimizations to level loading and texture streaming to improve load times for systems that can only render at 30 FPS.

Top Fixes: 

  • Fixed Operator getting stuck infinitely Void Blasting after switching from Warframe to Operator while auto-meleeing. 
    • We are aware of and investigating other issues related to Auto-Melee that we’re hoping to fix for Dante Unbound. 
  • Fixed Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance ability not activating Tennokai. 
  • Fixed alt-fire for Secondary weapons and Incarnon Mode not activating when dual wielding with Glaive. 
  • Fixed certain Arcanes (including but not limited to: Arcane Victory, Arcane Avenger, and Arcane Grace) having “0” in their Buff icons instead of the actual stat. 
  • Fixed the Grimoire’s alt-fire not benefitting from Multishot Mods. 
    • Multishot Mods will now properly increase its alt-fire’s chain depth. 
  • Fixed Zephyr’s Tornadoes having an unintended damage cap of 500k. 
    • The cap was causing Tornadoes to lose their adapted Elemental Damages and the ability to absorb new source damage once it had been hit. 
    • Additionally, we fixed Electricity damage endlessly chaining between enemies in the Tornadoes and unintentionally contributing to the absorbed damage total. 
  • Fixed being able to gain Melee Combo by unconventional means if your Melee Combo Duration was negative. Indirectly also fixed Heavy Attacks not consuming from Combo Counter when Melee Combo Duration was negative. 
  • Fixed weapons with a higher max Melee Combo Multiplier (such as Venka Prime) being unable to increase their Combo Counter beyond 12x (and resetting to 0) when using the Rauta and Tandem Bond Mod. 
  • Fixed UI becoming unresponsive in the Upgrades screen of the Arsenal after switching from keyboard/mouse to controller by using the shoulder buttons to swap between categories. 
  • Fixed Melee Animosity no longer functioning after activating and deactivating Titania’s Razorwing. 
  • Fixed Melee Animosity not triggering on Glave hits while dual wielding with Secondary weapon. 
  • Fixed Melee Influence’s buffs applying to clones spawned from Warframe abilities (ex: Mirage’s Hall of Mirror clones). 
    • While this has been a popular combination, it has also been the source of many severe performance issues that can crash players. We have removed this interaction in the name of stability for the game. 
  • Fixed Primary and Melee Arcanes being triggered by Secondary Weapons while on K-Drive/Merulina.
  • Fixed Melee Influence being triggered by Dual Ichor Incarnon’s Toxin fields.  
    • Melee Influence is intended to trigger “On Melee Electricity Status” and not from secondary effects (as they are not considered direct Melee hits). Since the Toxin fields deal damage independently of Melee attacks, it does not meet the Arcane’s criteria of triggering only if the Electricity Status originates from the weapon in hand.
  • Fixed Last Gasp getting canceled (and as a result killing Operator/Drifter) after hitting the Melee attack binding. 
    • Now, the Melee attack binding needs to be held down to end Last Gasp before it times out. 
  • Fixed Clients experiencing a complete loss of functionality if they are Maw Feeding while Host starts the Dax Equitem fight in Duviri. 
  • Fixed a bug with Trinity’s Well of Life and self-stagger-inducing weapons that allowed Thumpers in the Plains of Eidolon to be one-shot. 
    • In order to address this bug, the Well of Life wisps will no longer spawn from self-staggering and as an additional precaution to prevent similar issues from occurring, they now negate 5% (previously 10%) of the maximum Health of non-ability immune bosses (non-boss targets still receive 10%). While we understand this may have been a popular way to use the ability, the interaction with certain boss units, such as Thumpers, allowed players to bypass the intended gameplay loops that make these units challenging in comparison to standard enemies. 
  • Fixed loss of function after selecting the “Visit Maroo” button from the Ayatan Treasures screen when accessed from the Arsenal. 
    • This button will no longer appear if accessing the Ayatan Treasures screen from the Arsenal (Upgrade > Mods > Ayatan Treasures). 
  • Fixed Orokin Eye and Kahl Beacon not consuming Air Support Charges.
  • Fixed being unable to do the quick time event in the “She Gives, We Live” stage of The New War Quest with a controller. 
  • Fixes towards network issues causing Mastery Rank Test completions to register as failures. 
    • In extreme cases, where you lose network connection for 30 seconds or more, it is likely that you can still be forcibly disconnected and mark the Test as failed as a result. We have added a loading spinner to help inform you that we are waiting for network issues to pass to save test results. 

General Fixes: 

  • Fixed a combination of Magus Aggress and the Tenacious Bond Mod (when equipped on both Khora’s Venari and Companion) causing buff icons to disappear.
  • Fixed being unable to swap Polarities on a Melee weapon if you do not own the Tennokai Segment. 
  • Fixed a crash caused by Status Effects spreading from Melee Influence. 
  • Fixed failing first attempt at the Mastery Rank 19 stealth Test causing enemies to spawn facing the player and detecting them immediately – ultimately causing them to fail the test. 
  • Fixed Gauss’ Noble Animation Set having a noticeable “pop” when looping – it has been smoothed out for a more seamless loop! 
  • Fixed Excalibur Umbra’s Exalted Blade not draining Energy after being disarmed while dual wielding with Glaive. 
  • Fixed Exalted Melee weapons (ex: Excalibur’s Exalted Blade) experiencing animation issues if they were deactivated after parrying. 
  • Fixed being unable to switch back to Secondary weapon after hitting the “Switch Weapon” binding while Exalted Melee weapon is active and you don’t have a Primary weapon equipped. 
  • Fixed the Aero Set Mods unintentionally increasing the duration of Double Tap’s “20% Bonus Damage on next Shot for 2s” buff. 
  • Fixed Weapon Mods and Arcanes that have “on kill” effects (such as Primary Merciliness, Galvanized Chamber, etc.) being triggered all at once upon entering a Rampart Turret. 
  • Fixed the Akarius appearing in Teshin’s Cave instead of Akarius Prime if you own both. 
  • Fixed the Grimoire’s Default Config in Teshin’s Cave using Rifle Mods instead of Secondary Mods. 
  • Fixed the blue VFX from the Kaithe stage of the Steel Path Orowyrm fight lingering for the rest of the fight after Host migration. 
  • Fixed opening pause menu while transitioning from Open Landscape to Town (ex: Orb Vallis to Fortuna) leading to a loss of function. 
  • Fixed an objective marker in Octavia’s Anthem Quest leading players into a room that has a difficult to find exit. The marker has been adjusted to properly guide players to where they should be going. 
  • Fixed Argo & Vel being unable to damage enemies through bushes/foliage in Duviri.
  • Fixed the Argo Mace (of the Argo & Vel Melee weapon) turning invisible after exiting the Shawzin Emote (including when playing it as an  objective in Duviri). 
  • Fixed Endo and Orokin Catalyst/Reactor Blueprints missing from the Sortie & Archon Hunt rewards UI in the world state window.
  • Fixed the friendly Necramech in the “Locate Father Within the Cambion Drift” stage of the Heart of Deimos Quest dropping resources from Albrecht’s Laboratories instead of the Cambion Drift. 
  • Fixed the Shadows created from Sevagoth’s Shadow Haze Augment not using the Glaukus Skin if equipped.  
  • Fixed Riven Challenge descriptions in the Challenges screen being cut short. 
  • Fixed Father using unranked Entrati Syndicate voice lines regardless of what Rank you are in the Entrati Syndicate. 
  • Fixed Daughter saying a line about Brother when visiting her for the first time in the Heart of Deimos Quest (at this point in the Quest, you had not met Brother yet, which was understandably confusing). 
  • Fixed audio not triggering correctly when marking Tomes in the Paragrimm’s Tomes Recovery Duviri side objective. 
  • Fixed Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance missing its special sound effect when performing a Heavy Attack, as reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1381691-kullervos-wrathful-advance-no-longer-growls-on-heavy-attacks/
  • Fixed parts of certain Drekar Grineer units being completely black. 
  • Fixed missing sound during “Finding Squad” after selecting mission node.
  • Fixed the minimap markers for Hyena Pack being yellow instead of the intended red. 
  • Fixed Conclave/Index scoreboard UI overlapping with the other options in the mission progress screen. 
  • Fixed a couple of crashes in Conclave Dedicated Servers.
  • Fixed minor typo in the Ekhein’s Blueprint Market description. 
  • Fixed “Tradeable” label appearing in the Relic Pack Market UI. 
    • The Relics themselves are tradeable, not the pack – this was creating confusion that the pack itself was its own standalone item that could be traded. 
  • Fixed lip sync missing on some transmissions in the Saya’s Vigil Quest. 
  • Fixed Ordis inbox transmissions repeating. 
  • Fixed the Exilus Slot appearing for Melee weapons in the Upgrade screen even if you don’t own the Tennokai Segment. 
  • Fixed Mod Slots overlapping in the Zaw Gild screen if the Tennokai Segment isn’t installed. 
  • Fixed Erra getting stuck in certain areas during the “Approach Praghasa” stage of The New War Quest. 
  • Fixed clipping issues with the Operator’s Zariman Suit during the final cinematic of The Second Dream Quest. 
  • Fixed offset issues with the Doppline Prime Armor set on several Warframes. 
  • Fixed players being unable to deploy Extractors on Deimos if they haven’t completed the Albrecht’s Laboratories nodes. 
    • Players only need to complete the base nodes (pre-Whispers in the Walls Quest) to be able to use Extractors on Deimos. 
  • Fixed lighting issues with Rhino’s Iron Skin that would cause it to look black. 
  • Fixed Yareli getting stuck in an infinite respawn loop after falling off of Merulina into the lake in the center of Vay Hek’s arena (Oro, Earth). 
  • Fixed Drone in the “Escort the Drone to Safety” Bounty stage getting stuck going up a hill near Gara Toht Lake in the Plains of Eidolon. 
  • Fixed the Dual Swords Lunaeus Skin missing its ribbon attachments. 
    • Also adjusted Sugatra offsets on the skin to work better with the ribbons.
  • Fixed Velocitus’ projectile speed being 100 m/s instead of the intended 500 m/s. 
  • Changed it to accelerate from 100 m/s to 500 m/s extremely fast, so that enemies within 8m can still be hit. 
  • Fixed performance issues after entering Command Mode as Kahl in the “Prison Break” Break Narmer. 
  • Fixed Clients with connectivity issues seeing four identical symbols on the Isolation Vault door.  
  • Fixed the Tenno Guide prioritizing side objectives and quests (Mastery Rank Tests, Junctions, etc.) instead of the main story Quests. 
  • Fixed the videos in the Drifter Intrinsics screen not being cropped. 

Nintendo Switch Specific Notes:

  • Fixed the Batch Remove Friends option not working on Nintendo Switch. 
    • Also fixed a confusing/unrelated pop-up when attempting to batch remove friends. 
  • Fixed the Conclave and Index scoreboards missing in the mission progress screen. 
  • Fixed being unable to place a Komi stone on the board after rebinding “A” to an Ability button. 
  • Fixed being able to gift TennoGen items that are not available on Nintendo Switch from an Xbox or PlayStation account to a Switch account that is not linked to an Xbox or PlayStation account. 
    • Since TennoGen item availability can differ per platform (due to each item requiring licensing for use on Console platforms, as outlined here), we want to prevent players from purchasing a gift that the receiver cannot use. It’s worth noting that TennoGen items that are available on Switch can still be gifted regardless of account link status.

Warframe – Ver. 35.0.11

  • Release date: January 24th 2024 (North America, Europe) / January 25th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

Hello Tenno! This hotfix predominantly contains behind-the-scenes changes in preparation for today’s launch of the 2024 Lunar New Year celebration items for the Year of the Dragon

Warframe – Ver. 35.0.10

  • Release date: January 18th 2024 (North America, Europe) / January 19th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

Changes: 

  • Continued updates to the sounds in the Awakening Quest’s Warframe select screen. 

Cross Platform Save Fixes: 

  • Fixed case where a merged account could be a member in two different Clans. 
    • This was caused by merging a Console account in a Clan with a PC account that has a pending Clan request that was accepted after the merging. Affected accounts have been returned to the Clan they were in on their Console account prior to the merge. 

Fixes: 

  • Fixed Clients experiencing performance issues when using the Astral Bond Mod on their Sentinel. 
  • Fixed Sentinel customizations purchased from the Arsenal not equipping onto the Sentinel and causing the customization UI to disappear from the screen. 
  • Fixed disabling the Depth of Field option in Captura for the first time not doing anything. 
  • Fixed the amount of Aya owned not updating in the Syndicate “Next Title” popup after using it for Rank 4/5 Pledge Sacrifices.
  • Fixed Gauss’ battery gauge overlapping the combo counter UI if higher than 2x. 
  • Fixed the Zenurik Badge being comically big and positioned above Gauss Prime’s head.
  • Fixed several offset issues with Emblems (when Gauss Prime has a skin equipped), the Prisma Latron Armour Set, and the base Protovyre Chest and Leg Armor on Gauss Prime. 
  • Fixed the Coildrives in the Orb Vallis having erratic pathing, often leading them to drive into walls and drift from side to side. So basically, what you see on the road during Canadian winters.
  •  Fixed the “owned” status for non-Platinum packs (ie. Prime Access, Supporter Packs, etc.) in the in-game Market not appearing for players who are purchasing for the first time. 
  • Fixed artifacting issues caused by lens flares.  
  • Fixed potential script error from Alliance/Clan’s having special characters in their Message Of The Day. 
  • Fixed script error in the End of Mission screen. 
  • Fixed script error in Teshin’s Cave when the game is selecting a Mod Config for your Warframe’s Exalted Weapon. 

Warframe – Ver. 35.0.9 (Gauss Prime)

  • Release date: January 17th 2024 (North America, Europe) / January 18th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:

GAUSS PRIME ACCESS

Leave your enemies in the dust with Gauss Prime, now entering Prime Access!

 

Gauss Prime 
Quicksilver takes form. Gauss Prime brooks no talk of defeat.

Acceltra Prime
Engage your enemies with deadly speed. This weapon reloads even faster when its wielder sprints, faster still with Gauss.

Akarius Prime
Wield a golden pair of rocket launchers. Sprint to reload them faster. They reload fastest when wielded by Gauss.

Altra Prime Syandana
A shining garment befitting the Saint of Altra.

Exclusive Gauss Prime Glyphs

 

Gauss Prime Accessories feature: 

  • Doppline Prime Armor: The signature armor of Gauss Prime’s aesthetic.
  • Altra Prime Syandana: A shining garment befitting the Saint of Altra. 
  • Gauss Prime Blazargaze Helmet*: Style meets aerodynamics.
  • Noggle Statue – Gauss Prime*: A small wobbly statue of Gauss Prime.
  • Gauss Prime Floof*: A cuddly floof of golden thread.
    • Prime Noggles for each Prime Warframe are historically given out via Inbox messages at the end of the year. Since Gauss hates to keep anyone waiting, we’re giving them the spotlight they deserve alongside bonus additions including the adorable Gauss Prime Floof and the aerodynamic Gauss Prime Blazargaze Helmet.
  • 90-Day Resource and Affinity Boosters

*This round of Prime Accessories features bonus items of the Blazargaze Prime Alt Helmet, Gauss Prime Noggle, and Gauss Prime Floof! These items are limited to the Prime Accessories Pack (including the Complete Pack) but will be offered in his future Prime Resurgence rotation.

Alongside the usual Prime Access and Prime Accessories Packs for Console, we now offer a Prime Access – Complete Pack. This Pack contains everything from the two packs combined into one for a convenient shopping experience. 

Instantly gain access to Gauss Prime from the in-game Market or earn Relics in-game to craft Gauss Prime, Acceltra Prime, and Akarius Prime in your Foundry. 

Now that Gauss Prime Access is available, the following items have been added to the Prime Vault for a future Prime Resurgence rotation. If you have Relics that contain these items they will remain in your Inventory.

  • Garuda Prime
  • Nagantaka Prime
  • Corvas Prime 

Syndicate Sacrifice Change: 
Starting with this Vaulting, all Rank 4 and 5 Pledged Syndicate Sacrifices have been replaced with Aya: 

  • Rank 4 = 2 Aya
  • Rank 5 = 3 Aya 

This change reduces the amount of time spent acquiring and crafting specific Prime parts to rank up in a Syndicate, and offers players additional uses for their Aya. Since Aya drops from many sources, reaching those higher ranks is now much more accessible as it is no longer wholly tied to Relic RNG.

Riven Disposition Changes:
As with each round of Prime Access come updated Riven Disposition numbers – check the full details here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1380863-january-2024-riven-dispositions/
 

Changes: 

  • Removed the ability for enemies to deal critical hits to players, Defense targets, Extractors, Rescue targets, and all other friendly targets. 
    • In most cases, enemies equipped with “player” weapons (Grineer Ballista using the Vulkar for example) could land critical hits due to those weapons using the same crit setup as their player counterpart. With a lack of feedback to inform players as to why or how sudden damage spikes were occurring, these enemies could easily jeopardize a mission. Additionally, while it makes sense to reward players for landing critical headshots, whether an enemy hits a head or not is outside of player control – which ultimately made countering it near impossible. So, in an effort to provide more consistent and predictable damage output from enemies, we have removed their ability to deal critical hits.
  • Changed the Nightwave “Episode Status” button to “Nightwave Status” in the Navigation menu.
    • This button appears when players have toggled on to Resource Drones view in their Navigation. 
  • Made updates to the sounds in the Awakening Quest’s Warframe select screen and cinematics. 
  • You can now tap during these events even if the “Repeated Button Presses” option is set to “Hold” (for both the Keyboard/Mouse and Controller settings). 
  • (Hot-dropped on Monday) Re-enabled the ability to decrease your Clan Rank. 
    • As explained in the PSA, this temporary measure was taken during Operation: Gargoyle’s Cry to address a bug that prevented Clans from being able to progress in the Operation after decreasing their Rank. Since the Operation concluded on Monday, you can now decrease. 

Albrecht’s Laboratories Changes & Fixes:

  • Fixed the map search radius for Necramite Drones not appearing in Netracell missions (including the Whispers in the Walls Quest stage). 
  • Fixed the “kill enemies to lower security level” radius marker in Netracell missions spawning very far from the Security Matrix. 
  • Fixed heat vents in Alchemy missions spawning very far from players. 
  • Fixed Mocking Whispers becoming indefinitely invulnerable after using its Exalted Bladestorm attack and hitting a Revenant player that has Mesmer Skin active. 
  • Fixed Murmur Sarcophages becoming unbreakable after Host Migration. 
  • Fixed Bounty objectives appearing in Netracell missions after starting a Netracell from the Sanctum Anatomica while the Bounty vote is active. 
  • Fixed Clients not hearing the alarm during the “kill enemies to lower security level” stage of the Netracell mission. 
  • Fixed the sound FX for the doors in the Sanctum Anatomica and a vent wall in the Labs being out of sync with their animations. 
  • Tweaked the Vitreum seeking alarm sound FX duration in the Assassination, Effervo mission to match the pulsing VFX. 
  • Improved the balance between sounds that occur when opening the Netracell. 
  • Fixed certain Vitriol Phials having mesh scaling issues with their puddles. 
  • Fixed the Operator’s head doing a 180 twist while placing an Atropos Prove into a Vitreum in the Assassination, Effervo mission. 

Cross Platform Save Fixes: 

  • Fixed a primary account being automatically selected for you if either of the accounts being linked had been created after the merge cutoff date (November 24 at 2 p.m. ET). 
    • Now in the case where both accounts were created after the cutoff, you can now choose either as the primary during the linking process. This only applies to first time linking (as has been the case since launch) – once the PC account has had other accounts linked in, that PC account is set as the primary. 
  • (Hot-dropped on Monday) More fixes towards various issues (ex: being unable to equip/unequip Kubrow) occurring when merging accounts that both have Kubrows in various states (incubating, incubated, etc.). To prevent further issues, newly merged accounts automatically put 1 of the 2 Kubrows into Stasis. 

Fixes:

  • Fixed the synergy between Sevagoth’s Reap and Sow abilities (enemies explode when hit by Reap while seeded with Sow) not working for Clients. 
  • Fixed the Dreamer’s Wraith mod only increasing Heavy Attack Critical damage by 20% instead of the intended 32% (at max rank). 
  • Fixed the following issues with Secondary Outburst when used by Clients: 
    • Fixed Clients’ Combo Multipliers not being consumed when switching to Secondary. 
    • Fixed Clients’ Secondary dealing less than the intended damage while Secondary Outburst’s buffs are active. 
  • Fixed an additional +25% (+37% for Tauforged) applying on top of the Violet Archon Shard’s “Gain +25%/+37% Melee Critical Damage. When max Energy is over 500, the damage boost doubles” embed bonus. 
    • This bug caused the bonus to exceed well beyond its intended and described values. To break it down, when below 500 Energy the Shard granted +50%/ +74% and when above 500 it granted +75%/+111% (resulted from +25%/+37% applying on top of the intended +50%/+74%). As far as we can tell, this bug has been live since the release of the Violet Archon Shard in the Whispers in the Walls update, so we understand if this fix is disappointing for those who have been using it in this state since then. But in the interest of properly executing the intended bonuses as outlined in the UI, we have restored it to its original design. 
  • Fixed Wukong’s Clone being inactive at the start of the first and second phase of the Archon Hunt fight. 
  • Fixed cases where Exalted Weapons could be unmodded in Duviri.
    • Exalted Weapons use the Mods in the Config you select for your Warframe in Teshin’s Cave, but in the case where a Config didn’t have Mods equipped onto the Exalted Weapon, there was no fallback system to ensure you didn’t go into Duviri with it unmodded. Now, if a Warframe Mod Config is selected that doesn’t have any Mods equipped for the Exalted Weapon, the game will choose the Exalted Mod Config that uses the most Mod Capacity (as is the case with other equipment in Teshin’s Cave) to prevent players from going into Duviri with a bare bones Exalted Weapon. 
  • Fixed the introductory cinematic in the Heart of Deimos Quest not playing for players on Nintendo Switch, causing them to be unable to progress in the Quest. 
  • Fixed level 6 Terra Sniper Crewmans being able to one-shot Corpus Drones in Fortuna Bounties. 
    • They were capable of doing over 1000 damage per shot, so we modified their Snipers while they weren’t looking to be more appropriate for those lower level Bounties. 
  • Fixed the “Auxiliary” tab appearing in the Arsenal even if the Warframe does not have any Auxiliary customizations available. 
  • Fixed bundle items disappearing from the Bundle’s in-game Market page after hitting the “Cancel” button from the “Confirm Purchase” options. 
  • Fixed Nyx’s Chaos Sphere ring VFX appearing as a very thin line. 
  • Fixed the Skaut’s “Kahl Beacon” Air Support missing its name and description in the HUD.
  • Fixed Daughter and Son using their unranked Entrati Syndicate voice lines at Rank 5.
  • Fixed a rare issue that could allow a Dojo Room’s construction to be canceled when it had already finished.  
  • Fixed hitch occurring when selecting a placed Grimoire Altar Decoration while in decorating mode. 
  • (Missed note from Hotfix 35.0.7) Fixed the Grimoire Altar Decoration missing a panel on the bottom.

Warframe – Ver. 35.0.8

  • Release date: January 11th 2024 (North America, Europe) / January 12th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:
  • Fixed Sevagoth’s Glaukus Skin missing its custom deluxe Tombstone. 
  • Fixed Tenacious Bond’s Final Critical Damage Multiplier not functioning. 
    • While the UI indicated that it was active, it was not actually triggering and applying to the player. It will now!
  • Fixed a script error after dismissing the “Not Enough Platinum” pop-up. 
  • Fixed a script error caused by Melee Duplicate. 
  • Fixed a script error caused by Necramech summon terminals. 

Warframe – Ver. 35.0.5 to Ver. 35.0.7

  • Release date: January 9th 2024 (North America, Europe) / January 10th 2024 (Japan)
  • Patch notes:
Ver. 35.0.5

Topaz Archon Shard Fixes:

  • Fixed Topaz Archon Shard traits applying the buffs every 5 kills instead of every kill where described.
  • Fixed the Shield regen buff provided by a Topaz Archon Shard not functioning. 
    • You will not get the Shield regen buff when a Blast damage is applied.
  • Fixed the Secondary Critical Chance buff provided by the Topaz Archon Shard not functioning.

Fixes:

  • Fixed various Abilities not respecting Boss immunity status on all Octopede bosses.
    • Octopede bosses are now more in line with other enemy bosses.  
  • Fixed a crash related to Rogue Culverins using Necramech consoles.
  • Fixed a crash related to The Severed Warden.
  • Fixed another case where you could place multiple Vigil Jahu Gargoyles in the Dojo.
    • Additionally, we’ve added an error message when you attempt to duplicate the Decoration. 
  • Fixed the World State Window in your Orbiter displaying 0% below your actual progress % for Operation: Gargoyle’s Cry.
    • Hotfix #4 had a partial fix for this, it should be working properly now.  
  • Fixed incorrect throwing animation during the Alchemy mission if you re-joined the squad due to a Host Migration. 
Ver. 35.0.6

Cross Platform Save Fixes:

  • Fixed the inability to Merge your Console account if you had to make a new PC Account in order to Merge.
    • If you encountered the issue and did not link the accounts, the website should now say the accounts will be merged
    • If you encountered the issue and did link the accounts, please contact support
  • Fixed some Merged accounts not getting various Quest inboxes which resulted in an inability to start the Quests.
  • Fixed Helminth abilities from the merged account being unlocked on the Primary Account. Helminth abilities are determined by the chosen Primary Account.
Ver. 35.0.7

File size: 882MB

Nintendo Switch Specific Notes: 

  • Fixed a crash caused by Grimoire’s Alt Fire projectile. 
    • In Hotfix #4, we changed the projectile to no longer chain Electricity damage to prevent the frequent crashing issues Nintendo Switch users were experiencing. With this fix we have returned Grimoire’s Alt Fire projectile to its intended design!
  • Re-enabled the “Web Authentication” button on Nintendo Switch! 
    • After Update 35 launched, this button was not working as intended for a small group of players and would log them out of the website instead of authorizing their accounts as intended, so it was disabled in Hotfix #1 to prevent players getting stuck in a logout loop. Now that the button has been re-enabled, this group can now log into the website again!

Cross Platform Save Fixes: 

  • Fixed rare instances where selecting an account that has not completed Vor’s Prize as your primary during the merging process would cause progression issues for the merged account.
  • Fixed rare case where merged PC and Console accounts that were in the same Clan would no longer be a member of it in the merged account.
    • If you have experienced this and would like assistance returning to your Clan, you can submit a ticket to support.warframe.com
  • Fixed rare case where TennoGen purchases made via the Steam Workshop would be incorrectly locked to a player’s Console account instead of their PC account (as intended) if the player was logged in on Console at the time of purchase.
    • We are working on a script to correct this for affected players. 
  • Fixed Companion Incubation not progressing after merging two accounts that both had a Companion active. Moving forward, new merges will automatically move those Companions into Stasis to avoid this issue. 
    • If you have experienced this issue and need assistance in regaining access to those Companions, you can submit a ticket to support.warframe.com

Changes: 

  • Changed the Violet Archon Shard embed bonus affecting Health/Energy pickups to function similarly to the Equilibrium Mod. Now, Health/Energy Orbs can be picked up if one is full, but the other is not to apply the bonus. 
  • Changed the “Regenerate Shields when you inflict an enemy with Blast Status” Topaz Archon Shard embed bonus to no longer apply when Shield Gate is triggered. 
    • An unintended degree of invulnerability could be obtained using this effect while continuously triggering Shield Gate, so it was changed to function similarly to Caliban’s Lethal Progeny ability, where the Shield recharge is disabled when Shield Gate is triggered and only resumes when the Shields begin to regenerate themselves. 
  • Changed the required amount of players needed to start the Effervo boss fight from all squad members to half. This addresses feedback that the boss fight could take a long time to start (and potentially result in Host migrations) if players were off collecting Voca, resources, etc, instead of moving to the boss zone. Players outside of the zone will now be teleported into the arena once activated. 
  • Changed Pangolin Prime’s Slam attack to match its base version:
    • Now applies a forced Slash Status Effect. 
    • Changed damage type from Impact to Puncture. 
  • Replaced the “Skip” button in the Circuit reward screen with a “Continue” option if multiple rewards are available. This aims to help prevent players from skipping them all, and instead, will now show the next reward. 
  • Arcanes offerings from Vendors are now displayed as unranked. 
    • Hovering over the Arcane will now display both its unranked and max rank stats. This is to help avoid players thinking they are buying a fully ranked Arcane.
  • Added a Default Mod Config for the Grimoire in Teshin’s Cave options. 
  • Mandonel’s orb will now spin faster during reload for some added flare!
  • Removed mention of Syndicate Sigils in the “Loyalty” Nightwave Act’s tip description, as they are no longer required with the Pledge system to gain Standing. 

Optimizations: 
Made small optimizations to server-side database performance. 

Albrecht’s Laboratories/Sanctum Anatomica Changes & Fixes: 

  • Improved spawn rates of The Anatomizer and The Severed Warden enemies in Alchemy Bounties. Particularly to address the issue of being unable to complete the “Kill X Flying Enemies” Bounty Challenge. 
  • Fixed individual Focus School Eidolon Lens Blueprints being rewarded in Rotation C of the Survival, Persto mission instead of the intended Eidolon Lens Blueprint. 
    • Each individual Lens Blueprint had a drop rate of 10% for each type, so we have adjusted the drop tables to compensate for this change by increasing the drop rate for the Eidolon Lens Blueprint and the Mandonel Barrel and Receiver. More details in the public drop tables. 
  • Fixed cases where Rogue Voidrigs would not spawn/be marked on the map.
    • With this fix, the “Kill 2 Rogue Voidrigs” Bounty Challenge has been re-enabled! It was disabled in Hotfix #2, as the above issue was preventing Bounties from being completed.
  • Fixed case where Rogue Voidrigs would suddenly teleport to a different location after being spawned by a Rogue Culverin. 
  • Fixed Rogue Culverins’ animations popping while spawning a Rogue Voidrig. 
  • Fixed the map search radius for Necramite Drones not appearing in Netracell missions (including the Whispers in the Walls Quest stage). 
  • Fixed reward containers in the Netracells having different Codex entries. 
  • Fixed breaking a Murmur Sarcophages counting as more than one towards the “Find X Murmur Sarcophages” Bounty challenge. 
  • Fixed hitches occurring after hacking a Necramech summon terminal. 
  • Fixed the maximum number of Vitreums that can be activated simultaneously in the Assassination, Effervo mission not scaling based on Squad size. 
  • Fixed damage type icons appearing next to the “Vitreum Seeking” UI in the Assassination, Effervo mission instead of “A, B, C…” to indicate which Vitreum is active and where. 
  • Fixed Murmur Eyes not despawning after its timer has run out in the Assassination, Effervo mission. 
  • Improved the accuracy of the direction in which broken furniture pieces will fly out when destroyed. We’re collectively keeping the Necramites employed with all this senseless furniture demolition. 
  • Fixed certain character color customizations (if you know you know) not appearing in their transmissions. 
  • Fixed loss of UI functionality in the certain character color customizations screen after saving. 
  • Fixed the Cavia rank up dioramas being obfuscated by Vendor UI if you interacted with them before it appeared. 
  • Fixed opening Operator Equipment in the Sanctum Anatomica in the “Back to the Future” stage of the Whispers in the Walls Quest causing functionality loss. 
  • Fixed minimap waypoint for the Grimoire page not disappearing after collecting it in the “Lost and Found” stage of Whispers in the Walls Quest. Also fixed the Lotus “mission complete” transmission playing on extraction. 

General Fixes: 

  • Fixed Topaz Archon Shard embed bonuses not triggering from enemies that were killed by the required conditions.  
    • For example, if you killed an enemy with Electricity Damage, it would not trigger the embed bonus of gaining Ability Damage on enemies affected by Electricity Status. With this fix, if the killing blow was going to apply the required condition, it will count towards the embed bonus. 
  • Fixed the “Regenerate Shields when you inflict an enemy with Blast Status” Topaz Archon Shard embed bonus removing Overshields when triggered.
