Hotfix 29.10.10

Expand

April 05, 2021 Forum Post

Tenno, here is our tenth Hotfix since the Corpus Proxima & The New Railjack with continued fixes & changes as the days progress. While we focus on fixes and functionality, we continue to read and collect feedback in parallel for review and discussion. In case you missed it, Update 30: Call of the Tempestarii is coming April 2021, meaning we’ll be shifting over to ‘No Hotfixes’ as of this Update (unless there’s an emergency)!

As we continue to read Feedback and collect Bugs, our public Trello board will be updated: https://wrfr.me/3cWj1z1

Railjack Changes & Fixes:

• Fixed a crash when transitioning between Railjack to Archwing.
• Fixed Glazio, Laith, Talyn and Vort Armaments not displaying when sorting Railjack Armaments by the Zetki manufacturer.

Changes:

• Adjustments towards blocking volumes and navigation pathing to prevent enemies and players from being able to walk under and inside the Ropalolyst when in the center of the level.

Fixes:

• Ran a script to correct player Profile stats with regards to Modular item Ranks.
  • Warframe tracks item progression in two different ways, the item itself for Ranks and Mastery, and then your Profile stats. Players recently noticed that their Profile was not tracking Modular items, this was due to the stats being submitted to the wrong part of the item. In Hotfix 29.10.8 we fixed the upload so that new stats are sent to the correct item, and this script now fixes “bad” data that was previously sent to the Profile. Your Modular items should now be in sync and show the correct Ranks.

Hotfix 29.10.9

April 01, 2021 Forum Post

Tenno, here is our ninth Hotfix since the Corpus Proxima & The New Railjack with continued fixes & changes as the days progress. While we focus on fixes and functionality, we continue to read and collect feedback in parallel for review and discussion. As we know, Update 30: Call of the Tempestarii is coming April 2021, meaning we’ll be shifting over to a “no Hotfix’ realm in April - we’ll let you know exactly when.

Tomorrow is also a holiday for us here in Canada! We will be ‘closing’ our home offices for a long weekend. We’ll be back bellies full of mini eggs on Monday.

March 26, 2021 Forum Post

Our team is working on continued fixes of all kinds for our sixth Hotfix since Friday’s release. While we focus on fixes and functionality, we continue to read and collect feedback in parallel for review and discussion.

As we continue to read Feedback and collect Bugs, our public Trello board will be updated: https://trello.com/b/K34ACrAu/pc-update-29100-bug-feedback-tracking

Railjack Changes & Fixes

• Fixed functionality loss when failing the Falling Glory node.
• Fixed inability to Mod your Plexus until you own a Railjack.
  • The intended flow here is when you complete The Archwing Quest and are awarded your Plexus, you can Mod it and join others on their Railjack missions to help out until you get yourself a Railjack. You’ll now be able to Mod it, but won't be able to see Railjack stats unless you actually own one, as the Plexus doesn’t have any Railjack data to pull from yet.
• Fixed the reward script for Grineer Railjack Missile Platforms and Shipkiller Platforms firing up to 7 times for one completed Point of Interest. Visually the reward popup UI only appeared once, but then later on at the End of Mission screen you would see a reward duplication up to 7 times in some cases.
• Fixed Railjack remaining invulnerable when ‘Aborting to Dry Dock’ inside the Capital Ship airlock and launching a new mission.
• Fixed a few more cases of Onslaught Matrix/Protective Shots Mods stacking.
• Fixed attempting to search for a Mod in the Plexus by using the Left Stick on a controller not activating the search bar.
• Fixed newer Corpus Railjack Armament Wreckage reward UI not doing the fancy left side “slide out” notification when picked up.
• Fixed a script error that would occur when entering Railjack loading tunnel and leaving certain types of Corpus hazards behind.
• Fixed a script error occurring when attempting to pilot an enemy Crewship.

Optimizations

Fixes:

• Fixed a crash that could occur when leaving an Exiums' Aura.
• Fixed a crash related to Host migrations.
• Fixed getting stuck as the Operator with no Abilities or movement after dying in a Necramech as a Client.

• Fixed Necramech Summon not refreshing it’s cooldown after summoning a Necramech that has died as a Client.
• Fixed Revenant Enthralled Mitosids permanently remain friendly after split, which can result in a Deimos Bounty progression stop.
• Fixed Lavos and Xaku custom ability HUD overlapping Melee Combo Counter when dual wielding.
• Fixed a script error when browsing through your Color Palettes when customizing the HUD Colors.

Railjack Changes & Fixes

• Added a new Railjack ‘Wear & Tear’ slider to the Customizations options for the interior! Similar to the Wear & Tear slider for the exterior of the Railjack, this slider adjusts the level of erosion that the interior reflects. In addition, we’ve added a coloring option for the exposed metal erosion (similar to the Orbiter Interior Wear & Tear)!
• Railjack Pause menu now offers a "Return to Dojo" option that returns you to the Dry Dock instead of "Abort Mission" which would rudely kick you straight back to your Orbiter.

• Fixed Clients unable to Pilot the Railjack if the Host is Piloting it while they join-in-progress.
• Fixed Clients unable to vote for the next Railjack mission after just completing a Railjack mission.
• Fixed Client Railjack Ammo not receiving full ammo load at mission start if you launch a Railjack mission from Orbiter as a squad.
• Fixed when Hildryn exits and re-enters the Railjack with Larkspur equipped as her Archwing Weapon, the max Artillery/Missile count will increase by 300, allowing the accumulated missiles to increase past their intended cap.
• Fixed players without a Railjack being able to launch Railjack missions from Orbiter Star Chart.
• Fixed cases of Crew member transmissions getting mixed on for Crew members of the same Syndicate alignment.
• Fixed the ‘Reset Defaults’ button on the Crew appearance screen not resetting the equipment and only resetting the color.

March 19, 2021 Forum Post - Railjack Retrofit

Corpus Railjack has arrived, Tenno. As we continue down our “ship what we’ve shown” path, we’ve finally arrived at Corpus Proxima! While reviewing the current state of Railjack as we worked on Corpus Proxima, we knew we needed to rework what we had in addition to adding new content. Introducing: Railjack Retrofit! Our initial 2019 Empyrean venture was a daring leap into space, but as we aimed for Lua there were some missteps. Our initial vision to provide a fresh new gameplay experience progressed into being overly complicated with an unnecessarily high barrier to entry. This Corpus Proxima & The New Railjack Update aims to simplify the Railjack experience for new and returning players. We encourage you to take your time as you dive back in - a lot has changed! And if you’re new to Railjack, welcome. It’s the perfect time to start.

As you’ve probably guessed, Corpus Proxima & The New Railjack is a Mainline Update! In usual Mainline fashion, some unreleased things may slip through the cracks and potentially cause some bumps. Please let us know if you spot anything by reporting in our threads!

You’ll be able to report feedback (or bugs) here:

Or, take a birds-eye-view look in our new Update board: https://trello.com/b/K34ACrAu/pc-update-29100-bug-feedback-tracking

CORPUS PROXIMA:

The Corpus Railjack Update is here! This Update brings you a full Corpus Railjack experience with brand new regions and Points of Interest to explore.

New Corpus Proxima Regions

Robots and Crewmen are taking to the skies and have greatly expanded the Proxima Star Chart - three new planets (Venus, Neptune and Pluto Proxima) will introduce new enemies, new Points of Interest and more. There will also be the most difficult missions for Corpus Railjack added to the Veil Proxima.

The types of missions available are now more diversified, in our efforts to further combine the Railjack experience with regular Warframe gameplay.

Some of these new mission types will already be familiar - classic Defense and Exterminate modes will occasionally be the main objective of a Railjack mission. Fight your way into the capital ship as a team, and extract back to Railjack upon completion.

If it’s loot you’re after, those greedy Corpus in the Corpus Proxima have many secrets to explore! Leave no container unopened, no vessel untouched, no enemy unbothered!

Each Corpus Proxima mission has structures for keen Tenno to explore and loot. Happy hunting!

Ice Mines: Neptune Proxima

Derelict Freightlinker: Pluto Proxima and Veil Proxima

Orokin Shield Derelict: Venus Proxima

We have also added two new mission types!

The first, known as Orphix, will be familiar to anyone who played the Orphix Venom event - take down the Sentient invaders, making use of Operators and Necramechs to circumvent the nullifier pulse fields. Similar to the Operation, if you do not own a Necramech of your own there are downed Necramechs available in mission for you to use. Instead of earning event currency, these missions can reward Arcanes, offering an alternative to Eidolon capturing squads. Orphix nodes will be locked if you have not completed the Second Dream due to heavy spoilers!

The second is known as Volatile! This completely new Mission type will offer the means to sabotage a Capital ship. Help Cephalon Cy from the inside by making use of the environment to cause a Reactor failure, while fighting off Engineers who can stop you!

A full list of rewards can be found on our public PC droptable site: [https://n8k6e2y6.ssl.hwcdn.net/repos/hnfvc0o3jnfvc873njb03enrf56.html warframe.com/droptables

• Warframe Arcanes in Rotation C (i.e every 12 Orphix) of Orphix gamemode in Corpus Railjack (max 36 Orphix).
• Ash and Oberon have been added to Railjack rewards! Oberon Component Blueprints can be found in Grineer Railjack Point of Interest and Skirmish Bonus reward tables, and Ash Component Blueprints can be found in Corpus Railjack Defense mission rewards.
  • We’ve permanently removed Ash and Oberon Blueprints from Eximus and Manic drop tables respectively. We did this to connect Railjack to some more ‘core Warframe’ style rewards, and make their acquisition more straightforward for matchmaking purposes.

NEW CORPUS RAILJACK ENEMIES

With new Proxima regions unveiled come new Railjack enemies of the Corpus variety! Corpus Proximas are loaded with special units engineered to withstand the outer limits of the Star Chart, and also bring you down.

Each Corpus Proxima has identifiable units:

Venus Proxima: TARO

Neptune Proxima: AXIO

Pluto Proxima: VORAC

Veil Proxima (Corpus nodes): ORM

Arm your Railjack to fend off HARPI attack fighters armed with rapid-fire plasma cannons, WEAVER fighters who spin and launch target-seeking globes of highly-charged plasma, BASILISK fighters with tracking turrets that deliver focused bursts from its energy beam, and many more!

Storm Capital Stanchion ships to battle ATLOC RAKNOIDS upgraded with a thorax-mounted missile launcher, VAMBAC special units equipped with proximity-grenade launcher, CULVERI MOAS armed with a high-intensity thermal beam, the Corpus Proxima Elite AURAX units, and many more!

Hijack enemy Corpus Crewships to take control of not only flight, but also their Missile Swarm firepower!

NEW RAILJACK RESOURCE

Ticor Plate

High-density alloy armor plating used in the construction of offensive spacecraft.

This resource is a catch-all essential Forge Resource for Tenno! Ticor Plate can be fed to Helminth for Bile.

REMOVED RAILJACK RESOURCES

We are removing 6 Railjack Resources from drop tables:

• Pustrels
• Copernics
• Trachons
• Kesslers
• Bracoid
• Fresnels

We wanted to reduce the number of Resources we introduced in our original Railjack launch. They'll remain in your Inventory as we’ll be looking at possibly reintroducing them at a later date. All Blueprints that required these items have been updated to reflect viable Resources, and respective drops have been swapped to Ticor Plate where appropriate. These Resources have also been removed from Helminths Bile Feeding menu. If you spot any mentions of these Resources that we might have missed please let us know!

For Tenno who have partially contributed these Resources to Wreckage, the percentage of your contribution will be honoured for the Resource that replaces it. Ex: If you contributed 60% of the needed Copernics for a Carcinnox, that 60% contribution will be carried over when the Blueprints are updated.

Additionally, we are taking this opportunity to simplify Forge recipes to reduce the variety of resources needed. All forgeable items will require some combination of:

• Ticor Plate
• Titanium
• Cubic Diodes (Corpus Proximas)
• Carbides (Grineer Proximas)

NEW RAILJACK FOCUSED SENTINEL

Nautilus

• With ‘Auto Omni’ and ‘Cordon’ as default Precepts, this Sentinel is the ideal companion for long voyages aboard a Railjack.

Find Nautilus in the Market for Platinum or its Blueprint/Components in Corpus Railjack Ice Mines!

Auto Omni Precept Mod

• Nautilus has 100% chance to repair nearby Railjack Hull damages and extinguishes fires on Railjack. Cooldown: 20s

Cordon Precept Mod

• Nautilus forces enemies within 30m of the target into clusters for easier targeting. Cooldown: 15s

Both the Auto Omni Precept and Cordon Precept Mod are automatically given when Crafting or purchasing the Nautilus Sentinel!

THE NEW RAILJACK

Railjack Retrofit!

What’s Changed:

Warframe has several key strengths that have helped it stand the test of time in the world of video games. One of these strengths is a sense of “flow”; blade and gun blend together, and mission objectives are clear, challenging reflexes and awareness. From your first foray into the Star Chart, mission progress flows into Junction progress, leading to Questlines and other systems opening up naturally.

Enter Railjack. Technology from the Old War that when wielded today, could take all of Warframe’s combat to Orbit. We tried many things that were different from the norm. While some elements did offer a unique spin on the existing formula, it was not for everybody, and many complaints cited the amount of separation from the main game as a negative. And we agree. To quote the venerable Cephalon Cy: We have work to do.

As we revisit Railjack in 2021, our overall goal is to simplify these points of friction, better integrating Warframe’s signature “flow”. This flow has evolved over the years for core Warframe, thanks in no small part to our continuous overhauls and revisits. From ‘Bullet Jumping’ to ‘The Sword Alone’, our path is rarely straight forward. If any Tenno out there chose to customize their Railjack Ship and name it ‘Theseus’, you may be onto something.

What is ‘The New Railjack’? The name is deceivingly simple. The depth will be explored in this workshop below, indexed by the way you will interact with it.

Here is a list of scripts / account changes happening on Login, with further information below:

More Accessible:

First thing’s first: if you have yet to build your Railjack as part of the Rising Tide Quest, the cost of ship components and the time it takes for each one to build has been dramatically reduced (the difference in cost will be part of our early adopter compensation below). Simply put: less Grind.

If you’d rather just jump straight into the action, a fully built Railjack will also be available through the in-game Market for Platinum in the new Railjack category (must have an Archwing to purchase). The Rising Tide Quest will automatically be completed if a Railjack is purchased from the in-game Market - you can replay the Quest at any time in the Codex! Maybe you’ve noticed a pattern - when we released Necramechs, we didn’t sell them for Platinum at launch either. Their Market appearance came many months later with Orphix Venom. It’s almost paradoxical that as a Free to Play game we don’t put these new items in the Market. There really isn’t a good reason, either, and players really have made it clear they’d like the option to buy new items with Platinum -- whether bought or traded. And now the option is there.

For those who prefer the free path, they can enjoy a shorter wait and less Resources to build their own Railjack!

Avionics to Mods:

Now let’s talk AVIONICS. Before you even think of departing, you’ll want to revisit your Railjack’s Avionics, which have been redone as... Railjack MODS!

That’s right, Avionics are no more. This entire system has been completely overhauled, including Avionics being turned into regular Mods, so everything has been unequipped and reset. Gone are the days of upgradeable Grid slots, and praying that your Host’s Railjack has the Avionics you want to use. In fact, you aren’t even equipping things on the Railjack itself anymore...

Meet the ‘PLEXUS’

Instead, Tenno will have a “PLEXUS” that they bring with them into every Railjack mission, carrying the three types of Avionics you are familiar with. Battle/Tactical Mods remain the same, but are personal to you, being available on any Railjack you board. Integrated Mods will be separated much like Warframe mods: Personal Mod slots that only benefit you, and Aura Mods that benefit the Railjack and your entire squad. Aura Mods for the Plexus will simply go in the designated Aura slot, similar to how Modding your Warframe works!

The Plexus comes pre-installed, no player Orokin Reactors required!

You will also gain Mastery with your Plexus from Affinity gained in your Railjack missions, which will let you Forma the Plexus to its maximum potential!

Railjack Integrated Mod Screen:

Railjack Battle Mod Screen:

Railjack Tactical Mod Screen:

Railjack Mod drains have been rebalanced with respect to the new PLEXUS Modding system.

New Max Drain: 11

Section Density

Old Max Drain: 10

New Max Drain: 15

Forward Artillery

Old Max Drain: 9

New Max Drain: 16

We hope that reverting back to the familiar Modding screen will help lessen the learning curve for new players. The shift to personal Mod loadouts should also allow for a more consistent gameplay experience, including public matchmaking.

For added convenience, the Plexus can be Modded in several locations: in your Dry Dock terminal (like before), in the new Dry Docks found in various Relays (accessible via Fast Travel), and even in your own Orbiter!

Dirac to Endo

Since Avionics are now treated like regular Mods, Dirac (the upgrade Resource for Avionics) is being converted into Endo, for a more cohesive upgrading experience. All Dirac spent on your Grid will be reimbursed (i.e up to 39,000 Dirac to Endo if you maxed out your Grid), and all existing Dirac stockpiles will turn into Endo on login of Update 29.10.0 at a rate of 1:1.

Intrinsics 2.0

Now, onto Intrinsics! Firstly, you’ll need to re-spec ALL your Intrinsics when you login! Because we changed so much, we want to make sure everyone gets a fresh start on where to spend their Intrinsics. This gives us the opportunity to overhaul the various progression trees, rewarding players’ investment in progression.

It’s worth noting that no Mastery has been lost with this re-spec!

Here is a full table of the current Intrinsic Ranks for each category from Ranks 1 - 10:

Railjack Intrinsics 2.0 Feedback Megathread: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1253290-update-29100-railjack-intrinsics-20-feedback-megathread-read-first-post/

We removed the Pilot Drift Maneuver Charge/Launch because it could often lead to unintended collisions. Pilots can now impeccably maneuver their craft at high speeds once they learn the new system without risk of accidents!

Command Intrinsic

The newest and long awaited Command Intrinsic makes its debut! Command brings a whole new gameplay choice to Railjack by giving you the option to Hire your own Crew to operate familiar Railjack tasks: Piloting, Gunnery, Repair, and Combat! For those that want to Solo venture out in space, Hiring a Crew member can help you manage all the aspects of surviving and thriving out in the Proximas.

With the Intrinsic re-spec in this Update you can now spend your Intrinsics towards Command if it’s up your gameplay alley:

Once you’ve unlocked your Command Intrinsic and have Crew Member Slots for Crewmates, it’s time to visit Ticker in Fortuna. She can put you in touch with a wide variety of people from all across the Star Chart for the right Hire price! Their price may be determined by your alignment with certain Syndicates - some Crew will join you at a discount, and others double the price! Your Syndicate alignments determine all.

Each Crew for Hire will have their own set of competencies: Piloting, Gunnery, Repair, Combat, and Endurance.

Your Crew will help keep your Railjack operational when flying in squads of less than 4 players. Which is to say - your Crew will help you out provided a Tenno cannot! Each Crewmate is available forever once Hired, but if you want to have more than 3 Crew members available to you, you’ll need to purchase more Crew Member Slots via the in-game Market or ‘End Contract’ with a Crewmate to release from service.

Crew Training & Management

Once you’ve Hired a Crew member from Ticker, head back to your Dry Dock management screen and visit the new Crew tab to ‘ASSIGN CREW’ for your Railjack.

If you don’t have access to a Clan Dry Dock, fear not! Publicly available Dry Docks can be found in the Second and Third tier Relays (Saturn - Kronia and Pluto - Orcus relays on PC) on each Platform.

Here you can also customize Appearance, Equip a Weapon, Train, and Assign Roles for each Hired Crew member.

Appearance

Utilize your collection of Fashion Frame cosmetics and equip your Crew members with Armor and Syandanas. Fully customize the color channels of each Crew member to your liking!

Equip Primaries

Put your firepower in your Crew’s hands by sharing the wealth of your Arsenal with them! You can equip any Rifle, Shotgun, or Pistol Weapon (no Bows, Spears, etc), you own for your Crew member to use, including the Mods and Customization. Any changes you make to your crew’s weapons will also affect it in the Arsenal for your personal use as well. Weapons can only be equipped to one Crew Member at a time, no same Crew Member can use the same weapon from your Arsenal.

Train

Earn ‘Competency Points’ via Command Intrinsic Ranks to increase aptitude in certain roles:

• Piloting: Determines maximum Railjack speed when Crewmate is Piloting.
• Gunnery: Determines accuracy and heat accretion when Crewmate mans the Railjack Swivel Turrets.
• Repair: Determines Crewmate’s Railjack repair and self-healing times.
• Combat: Determines Crewmate’s combat damage.
• Endurance: Determines Crewmate’s Health and Shield ratings.

These Competency Points can be applied to any member of the Crew you Hire. For example, if you have unlocked 3 Competency Points, you can spend 3 Competency Points on each Crew member. If you then End Contract with that Crew Member and hire another, you will be able to apply 3 Competency Points to them immediately. Simply put, they are not consumed / exclusive per Crew member!

Additionally, once you reach Command Rank 8, Converted Kuva Liches are available for Crewing your Railjack as a Defensive powerhouse who are very difficult to take down thanks to their incredibly high Health stat. Their role is strictly to guard your Railjack from intruders while you and your Crew get the rest done! Kuva Lich Crew members come as they are and cannot be Trained or Customized. If you Trade your equipped Converted Kuva Lich Crew member it will be removed from your Crew.

Assign Role

Assign each Crew member to specific roles before taking off, or change their assignments on the fly with the Tactical Menu! You can choose from Pilot, Defender, Gunner, or Engineer.

And there you have it! You and your new Railjack Crew are ready for the Proximas!

New Railjack Component: Plating

Even though Mods have been moved to a personal player level, the Components of your Railjack like Shields, Engines and Weapons (Armaments and Components) will still be dependent on the hosting player’s collection. This Update includes a number of new weapons to collect and upgrade (listed below), but also an entirely new component: Plating. Since Health and Armor Mods can no longer be applied to the Railjack itself, this component determines the Health and Armor values of your Railjack.

These new Plating Components can be found as Wreckage throughout Grineer & Corpus Railjack missions and can be Repaired and Valence Fusioned like all other Railjack Components in a Dry Dock.

Wreckage Cost Changes

Speaking of Shield, Engines, and Weapons (Armaments and Components), we have significantly reduced the Resources required to build options from the Wreckage you acquire. Simply put, yet again, less Grind.

Early Adopters

Now for the “Early Adopters” information. Whether you’re someone that’s already ‘finished’ Railjack or have just a couple of hours under your belt - we have a variety of bundles you may be eligible for!

Matchmaking Changes

Once your Railjack and Plexus are all set up, it’s time to find a mission. We’ve taken this opportunity to streamline Railjack Matchmaking, better following the rules set out in the main game. Playing as a Host used to require starting the mission from your own Railjack (Liset or Dry Dock). Now, clicking a node with no open squads in the regular Star Chart will start your own hosted mission, instead of giving you an error about no open squads and asking you to go to the Dry Dock (or the back of your Ship).

2. What’s different in missions?

New Railjack Layout

When you first step onto your Railjack, you may notice a few key differences…

The left and right turrets behind the cockpit are no more; instead you’ll find entrances to a “dorsal” turret on top of the ship, and a “ventral” turret on the bottom. This makes 360 degree turning much more sensible, and will improve the sensation of aiming while in motion, as you now look in the direction of ship flight by default.

Going further back in your Railjack, there used to be a large open area with several floors, connecting to the Archwing Slingshot at the top, and the cargo hold at the back. This area is essentially no more - all of the ship’s vital functions have been compressed into a single smaller space, to reduce traversal time between stations. The Arsenal has also been removed from this space as a result. When fast traveling to the ‘Arsenal’ from the pause menu while your Railjack is docked in the Dojo, you will now simply be teleported to your Dojo’s Arsenal.

Stamina is Gone!

Back in the cockpit, you choose a mission node and launch from the Dry Dock. Upon warping into the sector, your Railjack feels lighter and more mobile than ever before… Not only has the base speed of the Railjack been increased, but also the Railjack sprint bar is no more! Making it much easier to reach mission objectives quickly.

Pilots CAN fire their gun while Boosting at the cost of the Railjack slowing down, as opposed to a hard stop previously mentioned in our Dev Workshop, at which Boosting will resume once firing is over. We’ve added a small cooldown to the Dodge maneuver to compensate for the sprint bar removal, but it can still be used much more frequently than before!

Opening the Tactical menu, you’ll see that the map perspective is now static, a common player request. Crewmates will also appear at the bottom, allowing you to observe their position or issue new orders.

Forge and Individual Resource Pools

So now bullets, missiles and fighters are flying fast and hectic in the heat of battle. You aim at a swarm of Corpus fighters, deploy your personal avionic ability and... oh no! Someone already used all the Flux Energy!

If this has ever happened to you before, worry not. As of this update, all Railjack ammo stockpiles are tracked separately per player, but ammo crafted in the Forge replenishes the stockpiles for all Tenno. From Revolite to Dome Charges, you’ll only have to keep track of your own ammo consumption, but dedicated Engineers can still make a huge impact on gameplay if you call out what you need. These consumables will also replenish slowly on their own over time, so Railjacks will always be fully stocked before leaving the Dry Dock and there’s no need to ‘Refine’ the Forge at the end of your mission.

As part of the transition from Railjack-based Avionics to player-based PLEXUS, Battle/Tactical abilities will now be fueled by Warframe energy, and Flux Energy will be completely removed from the game (any Avionics that relate to it will be converted to Endo). This allows players with existing tools for Energy generation to better integrate those tools into regular Railjack gameplay, further intertwining the two sides of the game. For non-Energy consuming Warframes like Lavos and Hildryn, cool downs and Shield-as-energy on Railjack will apply, respectively.

Additionally, the Battle Forge can make Warframe Energy! This means that in addition to existing player strategies, the Forge itself will be regularly outputting large pools of Warframe Energy with Player use. As with Ammo, any Energy made in the Forge will be shared across the Squad, so remember to thank your Engineers!

Finally, we are adding a new craftable: Hull Restore! Forging these instantly restores Health to your Hull in real-time. In this new item and all other Forge craftables, the new resource Ticor Plate (that drops in all Railjack missions) will be essential in keeping your Railjack running smoothly!

Battle Mods

When it comes to casting the Battle Mods you have on your Plexus, be tactical. We’ve added a mechanic to balance against potential Battle Mod overuse - Battle Mods have a gauge that increases the Energy cost if you use duplicate Abilities in quick succession! Simply balance your casting against the meter on each Battle Mod, and you’ll get the most efficient and deadly use out of your strategies!

We have also done a balance pass on various Railjack Mods, some Battle Mods included. Please refer to the specific “RAILJACK BATTLE MOD CHANGES” section of the notes for more details!

Reactors

Now - let’s talk about Reactors. They existed to give you Avionics Capacity, and Flux Energy. Both of those things are now removed, so the new role of Reactors is to provide Power Strength, Range, or Duration buffs to Railjack Battle Avionics being used aboard the ship!

If you had Reactors prior to this update, you can see how yours changed to fit this new role in the “List of Player Account scripts and revisions” section near the top of these notes!

Malfunctions and Hazards

Railjack Malfunctions/Hazards have also received a refresher to no longer directly affect the Railjacks Health or Shields!

• Electrical Hazards now scramble your Mini Map and disable use of the Tactical Menu.
• Catastrophic Hull Breaches now deals damage to all players on board until it has been sealed.
• Ice Hazards can now freeze interactive elements of the Railjack: Pilot seat, Forges, Archwing Slingshot, Doors, and Turrets.
• Fire Hazards now cause weapons to overheat quicker and cool down more slowly.
• Hull Ruptures have been removed all together.

Unified Damage Types

Railjack combat inherited a lot of the familiar Warframe damage types, but with a twist. Impact became Ballistic, Cold became Frost, and so on. We are removing the second layer of ‘Railjack’ Damage types to unify and have the system be based on what Players already spend time learning: core Warframe elements. This means that:

Ballistic = Impact
Plasma = Puncture
Particle = Slash
Frost = Cold
Ionic = Electricity
Incendiary = Heat
Chem = Toxin

Node Changes

The Nodes in the Railjack you know are split across Earth, Saturn, and the Veil Proxima. There’s choice, sure, but there’s no real meaningful choice with the only option being ‘Skirmish’ - or at least it seems that way until you memorize what Points of Interest live on what nodes. Then what?

It comes down to too much repetition of a small set of nodes, and a lot of Railjack just being ignored. For what we believe to be the healthier new direction for Railjack, we are making some changes by removing some existing Grineer nodes.

This includes the removal of the Gian Point node. A decision that was not made lightly, but in the interest of improving the variety of missions played we felt it was a necessary step. We’ve essentially taken what was good about Gian Point (a quick turnaround mission with a high Affinity reward) and put it into the objectives of Railjack itself, so that the diversity of content gets played in more than just one node over and over (and over) again.

The addition of Corpus Proxima regions will introduce many new missions to play (and it’ll say more than ‘Skirmish’!). We’ve also added Corpus missions to the deep reaches of space in the Veil Proxima.

List of all Railjack Nodes being removed:

• Posit Cluster
• Minhast Station
• Phanghoul Satellite
• Jex Lanes
• Rian Belt
• Vila Gap
• Spiro Gap
• Rya
• Gian Point
• Ruse War Field
• Ganalen’s Grave

3. What Comes Next?

Void Storms and Relics!

Despite our original plans, we cannot ship Void Storms with this Update due to the scope of changes and additions within the New Railjack. But that’s okay, because thematically they truly belong with Update 30: Call of the Tempestarii which is based on Void Storms in many ways. When Void Storms do come, they’ll offer Tenno a way to use their Void Relics in Railjack Missions! They’ll be a rotating optional mission type to play, just like Fissure Missions on the normal Star Chart, but much bigger and stormier.

And of course, the story behind Void Storms and more will be revealed in…

Update 30

Call of the Tempestarii

All the work going into Update 29.10.0 is to set the stage for Update 30: Call of the Tempestarii. Update 30 will bring a signature Warframe quest for Sevagoth, tease a new villain, and more. We also plan to release it at the same time on all Platforms! So while Update 29.10.0 comes to PC first, Update 30 will bring all of this and Sevagoth to Consoles at once.

The release of Corpus Liches a.k.a “Queenpins” is still planned for the future in its own update. Think more ‘Update 30.5’ territory. Don’t quote us on that Update number though, it could shift a bit.

New Railjack Armaments

The Corpus Proxima brings a whole new threat that requires all new firepower! These 4 new Railjack Armaments can be found as Wreckage from Corpus Railjack enemies.

• TALYN
  • Rapid-fire laser cannon: burns targets with instantaneous beams. Fire rate builds with continuous use.
• VORT
  • Electrical pulse projector: emits a volley of wide charged arcs that can knock out enemy systems.
• GLAZIO
  • Ship-mounted ice driver: delivers heavy icicle bombardment, causing severe damage to enemy weak points
• LAITH
  • Repeat shrapnel blaster: launches high-velocity abrasive fragments, ripping enemy hulls and armor apart.

Railjack Armament Changes:

We have received a lot of feedback on Railjack weapons since it’s release, and as a result, we have made some changes based both on effectiveness and feel. Overall, Railjack Armaments have received a buff to their Damage to better represent cutting through swathes of fighters, much like you would enemies on the ground. Some Armaments have had their accuracy or recoil altered (such as the Apoc Autocannon and Carcinnox) to make them have a more visually ‘cinematic’ effect of spaceship cannons, while maintaining their deadliness.

The Railjack is the pinnacle of Old War space combat technology, and we wanted these changes to better reflect that power.

APOC AUTOCANNON

• Damage increased from 53 to 126
  • MKI Sigma/Vidar - damage from 96 to 227
  • MKII Sigma/Vidar - damage from 164 to 386
  • MKIII Sigma/Vidar - damage from 263 to 618
  • Lavan MKI - damage from 96 to 243

• Increased the recoil of the Railjack Apoc Autocannons.
• Increased the size of the Apoc Autocannon projectile.
• Decreased the Zetki Apoc Autocannon Heat Accretion from 20 to 18.
• Decreased Apoc Autocannon accuracy.
  • With the projectile size increase and the combat engagement range the accuracy decrease should not effect gameplay at all, basically a cosmetic change of giving the projectiles a bit of natural looking variance

CARCINNOX

• Carcinnox projectile size increased.
• Carcinnox accuracy decreased.
  • Accuracy decrease is cosmetic, increase in projectile size counters any gameplay impact the decrease in accuracy brings
• Damage increased from 30 to 80
  • MKI Sigma/Vidar - damage from 54 to 144
  • MKII Sigma/Vidar - damage from 92 to 245
  • MKIII Sigma/Vidar - damage from 148 to 392
  • Lavan MKI - damage from 54 to 155
  • Lavan MKII - damage from 92 to 263
  • Lavan MKIII - damage from 148 to 420
  • Zetki MKI - damage from 81 to 187
  • Zetki MKII - damage from 138 to 319
  • Zetki MKIII - damage from 222 to 510
• Carcinoxx Status Chance increased:
  • Sigma and Vidar:
    • MKI 8 to 12%
    • MKII 12 to 17%
    • MKIII 17% to 24%
  • Lavan:
    • MKI 12 to 17%
    • MKII 17 to 24%
    • MKIII 24 to 34%
  • Zetki:
    • MKI 12 to 18%
    • MKII 18 to 26%
    • MKIII 26 to 36%

CRYOPHON

• Damage increased from 400 to 972
  • MKI Sigma/Vidar - damage from 720 to 1750
  • MKII Sigma/Vidar - damage from 1224 to 2975
  • MKIII Sigma/Vidar - damage from 1959 to 4760
  • Lavan MKI - damage from 720 to 1873
  • Lavan MKII - damage from 1224 to 3184
  • Lavan MKIII - damage from 1959 to 5094
  • Zetki MKI - damage from 1080 to 2275
  • Zetki MKII - damage from 1836 to 3868
  • Zetki MKIII - damage from 2939 to 6188
• Reduced heat accretion of Cryophon for Tenno, Vidar and Lavan from 250 to 150. Zetki from 350 to 250.

PHOTOR

• Damage increased from 15 to 27
  • MKI Sigma/Vidar - damage from 27 to 49
  • MKII Sigma/Vidar - damage from 46 to 84
  • MKIII Sigma/Vidar - damage from 74 to 135
  • Lavan MKI - damage from 27 to 53
  • Lavan MKII - damage from 46 to 90
  • Lavan MKIII - damage from 74 to 145
  • Zetki MKI - damage from 41 to 59
  • Zetki MKII - damage from 69 to 101
  • Zetki MKIII - damage from 111 to 162
• Increased Photor Sigma/Lavan/Vidar Heat Accretion increased to 10, and Zetki Heat Accretion increased to 18.

PULSAR

• Damage increased from 52 to 120
  • MKI Sigma/Vidar - damage from 94 to 216
  • MKII Sigma/Vidar - damage from 160 to 368
  • MKIII Sigma/Vidar - damage from 256 to 589
  • Lavan MKI - damage from 94 to 232
  • Lavan MKII - damage from 160 to 394
  • Lavan MKIII - damage from 256 to 631
  • Zetki MKI - damage from 141 to 281
  • Zetki MKII - damage from 240 to 478
  • Zetki MKIII - damage from 384 to 766

RAILJACK BATTLE MOD CHANGES:

We have made numerous changes to Battle Mods (formerly Avionics) given that Reactors now enhance their Strength, Range, and Duration. Their initial stats needed to be slightly lowered since they can now be buffed, and we didn’t want their buffed values to exceed intended properties. Having a top tier Reactor in almost all cases will bring your Battle Avionics to surpass their previous stats!

• Tether Battle Mod (previously Avionic) has been balanced for new gameplay:
  • No longer shoot to destroy.
  • Tethered enemies that die will explode, dealing damage to those around them.
  • Tethered enemies take additional damage from Railjack weapons.
  • Dev Comment: Tether trivialized a lot of the Railjack gameplay flow with how lethal it was toward Fighter units in one-size-fits-all bursts. We want to justify the changes to Tether in the scope of adding new content. Tether would continue to trivialize all phases of Railjack fighter content, so we have made changes to make it more phase-based while still rewarding tactical placement.
• Blackout Pulse: Additional pulses occur based on how many enemies are hit by the first pulse. Blackout Pulse will also now detonate on impact.
• Phoenix Blaze (previously Fiery Phoenix): Railjack weapons gain additional Heat Damage when this ability is active.
• Made Seeker Volley better at picking targets for all missiles. Additionally, missiles start slow and speed up when they have a target.

NEW AND RETIRED RAILJACK MODS (AVIONICS)

As mentioned in the ‘LIST OF SCRIPTS’ section above, all Avionics have been converted into Railjack Mods. Retired Railjack Mods have been converted to their new replacements, with Endo given for the ones removed outright. The Endo return totals the amount of Endo spent on these (now) Mods and the dissolve amount based on their rarity.

New Railjack Equipment Feedback Megathread: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1253288-update-29100-new-railjack-equipment-feedback-megathread-read-first-post/

General Railjack Changes & Fixes:

• Added tutorial pop-ups when using the Plexus, Intrinsics, Railjack Star Chart, and Dry Dock for the first time.
• Ignis Wraith Blueprint has been added to Grineer Railjack missions as Point of Interest rewards!
• Selecting the Dry Dock node in the Railjack Navigation menu while in your Orbiter will now take the player directly to their Dry Dock, instead of the default spawn point in your Dojo.
• Railjack fighter spawning mechanics have been adjusted so enemies will now spawn in smaller, spread out groups to allow for a more engaging Railjack experience.
  • Oftentimes the Railjack fighter spawning logic would result in a large, tight cluster of enemies spawning at the same time that were easy to take out with a single hit (Tether, etc).
• New Railjack boost and boost stop sounds have been added!
• Removed the Dirac Bundles from the in-game Market.
  • Since Avionics are now Railjack Mods you can simply purchase Endo bundles in its place if desired.
• Added a ‘RAILJACK’ tab to the Mod station.
• Added ‘Next Power’ and ‘Use Selected Power’ in the Railjack Key Binding options (found under Options > Controls > Railjack > Customize Key Bindings).
  • The HUD will also now display the selected power if you have a binding for ‘Use Selected Power’ (previously this was locked to using a controller).
• Updated Railjack weapon projectiles, trails, hit effects and muzzle FX for improved visibility/impact.
• As per player feedback, equipped Railjack weapons and equipment will now appear with an ‘equipped’ banner in the Scrapping Wreckage window and will not allow you to Scrap said item.
  • This has also been applied to all other regular equipment, meaning anything that is currently equipped will appear as such and will not allow you to sell it.
• Updated Impact hit FX for Archwing weapons.
• Removed unused ‘preview’ option from the Railjack Scrap Wreckage screens.
• Updated the Railjack icons in the Railjack Configuration for Components, Armaments, and Upgrade to better resemble what they are.
• The Scrap Component/Scrap Wreckage screen will now display unique detailed stats for the item in question upon hover.
• Fixed a crash as Client during Railjack missions.
• Fixed Intrinsic gained not updating locally for Clients when returning to the Dry Dock from a Railjack mission.
• Fixed Railjack not appearing in the Dry Dock if you’re a Client in another Dojo and accept an invitation to a squad where the Host is in their Dojo. This also fixes being unable to board the Railjack since well… you couldn’t see it anyways.
• Fixed an issue with the Apoc where the attachments inside the ship no longer animated correctly.
• Fixed Railjack skins appearing too green/blue in the in-game Market.
• Fixed Credit rewards from Railjack missions not appearing at the end of mission screen.
• Fixed the Galvarc Ordnance weapon only doing a single low damage pulse instead of sustained beam or pulses.

NEW ZEPHYR HARRIER SKIN COLLECTION

Zephyr Harrier Skin

Ride the skies in breathtaking, windswept style.

Zephyr Arclite Landing Craft Skin

Impress fellow Tenno by pulling up to the mission in this striking, streamlined landing craft.

Operator Harrier Collection

A bold, radical look that tells everyone you rule the skies. Includes Harrier Suit, Harrier Sleeves, Harrier Leggings and Harrier Hood.

Zephyr Harrier Theme

Empower your UI with these scorching custom visuals.

Zephyr Harrier Collection

Soar to new heights as Zephyr with this turbocharged deluxe collection. Includes Zephyr Harrier Skin, Arclite Landing Craft Skin and Zephyr Harrier Theme.

In addition, there are two new Zephyr Harrier Agile & Noble Animations! These follow suit with other Deluxe Animations (Khora Urushu, etc) where they are available for Zephyr & Zephyr Prime, but Zephyr Harrier must be purchased to equip the Animations on other Warframes.

These are included with just the base Zephyr Harrier Skin purchase or with purchase of the Zephyr Harrier Bundle.

ZEPHYR ABILITY CHANGES:

Zephyr often finds herself among the lower-end of usage within the Warframe community. While many Tenno have truly mastered Zephyr’s Abilities, there are always notes on ways to improve her. When building out one of our deepest Deluxe bundles to date with Zephyr, we had to make time to review her abilities as well.

Tail Wind

Removed the hold-to-charge mechanic from the beginning, and instead made it so you can hold the ability at any time while in the air and it will toggle into hovering mode that holds you in flight while draining Energy every second. Hovering will now also allow you to move around instead of being fixed in place. Jump while Hovering to cancel. Hover now prevents gaining Energy from Energy Siphon, Energizing Dash, Trinity Energy Vampire, etc.

We think the hold mechanic doesn’t work because standing still in Warframe is so dangerous in higher level content and the time spent holding is time lost shooting.

Increased the damage of the Dive Bomb from 500 to 4500 base damage at Max rank, to better reward the time and skill it takes to effectively use it. Tail Wind's Dive Bomb will now face the player in the direction they're moving.

Airburst

Changed from a radial explosion that knocks enemies outward into a short duration vortex (like we did for Gauss’s Mach Crash Augment) so the pull is more reliable.

We’re leaning on the pull mechanic as it synergizes great with Tornadoes since you can pull enemies into them.

Turbulence

No changes!

Tornado

Holding will now cast stationary Tornadoes, as where tapping will cast regular roaming Tornadoes. Reduced the number of Tornadoes to 3 to prevent enemies from getting too scattered, and increased the pull of Tornado so enemies stay inside them more.

The radius that Tornadoes will grab enemies was increased to include by default the synergy with Airburst; you no longer need to use Airburst on your Tornado to increase its pull radius.

If an enemy dies while being held by Tornado they will now be expelled to alleviate wasting bullets on flailing ragdolls.

Finally, when you make stationary Tornadoes, they will appear where you are aiming instead of on top of random nearby enemies. “Roaming” tornadoes still spawn on top of enemies.

Tornado feedback was composed of 2 main points:

Tornadoes tend to overly spread enemies around.

The pull of the Tornadoes is pretty tame, so sometimes it pulls enemies in and just tosses them out the other end. If you shoot an enemy in the Tornado it will often just kick them out of the Tornado.

Passive

Zephyr Rework: Passive ability added 150% stacking bonus Critical Chance while airborne to Primary/Secondary/Melee weapons.

General Zephyr Changes:

Updated Zephyr’s ability FX and sound for all 4 abilities, and added FX burst to the end of Turbulence (does not affect functionally).

LAVOS CHANGES & FIXES:

Ophidian Bite:

Increased the base Range from 8m to 10m.

What more is there to say? More whipping range! Beware the snake bites.

Increased Ophidian Bite’s downward vertical range.

Meaning there is now more distance between Lavos and the target underneath him where the cast will affect them, as per player feedback!

Vial Rush: Vial Rush is now steerable!

Similarly to Gauss’ Mach Rush, once cast you can use the directional keys or your reticle to move Lavos around during his Vial Rush dash.

Transmutation Probe:

Increased the cooldown reduction from 1s to 1.5s.

Made improvements to Transmutation Probe’s travel pathing.

There were issues with the probe getting stuck on environment obstacles, we have made changes to reduce the chances of that happening!

Catalyze: Increased the travel speed of Catalyst Probes.

Catalyst Probes will now reach their max range positions quicker after cast.

Added a half second delay to Vial Rush and Transmutation Probe before you can cancel the ability so that you don’t accidentally cancel them early.

Fixed Lodestar Chest Plate, Heartwood Shoulder Plates, and the Arca Knee Guards clipping/tilting on Lavos.

Fixed in-game Market UI showing that Lavos has 175 Energy, when in fact, he does not (since he does not use Energy). It will now show ‘0’ as intended.

NEW MARKET ITEMS

RAILJACK CAPTAIN’S BUNDLE

Instantly take command of the Railjack with this bundle that includes a Railjack, 4 Crew Member Slots and the Nautilus Sentinel.

• This is a non-discounted convenience bundle for one-stop shoppers. Every item within can be purchased separately. Must have an Archwing to purchase.

NAUTILUS SENTINEL BUNDLE

Equip yourself with the efficient, deadly Nautilus Sentinel, the ideal Companion for Railjack voyages. The Nautilus can repair shipboard hazards independently and haul enemies together for ease of targeting. Includes Wings, Mask and Tail cosmetic accessories.

NAUTILUS SENTINEL COSMETIC BUNDLE

Customize your Sentinels to give them the deep-sea look of the Nautilus with this cosmetics bundle. Includes Wings, Mask and Tail. Does not include Nautilus Sentinel.

• All Nautilus Sentinel cosmetic attachments can be purchased separately on their own.

CREW MEMBER SLOT

Adds a new Crew Member Slot

MELEE CHANGE:

For those Tenno who don’t tune into Devstreams, we are actively reviewing the divide between Melee and Primary weapons in terms of power and lethality. A lot of Tenno have made cases that ‘Primary weapons just can’t compete with Melee’, and we agree. We are planning on doing a full detailed review of this and giving players a detailed workshop on what’s on our minds. That will come in the next few weeks.

However, we have one single change in this Update to Melee. The majority of all guaranteed enemy staggers on Melee hits have been removed. A few remain in neutral, forward block and neutral block combos. What this change does in practice is effectively removes the infinite Crowd Control melee attacking provided. The Crowd Control potential stacked with the scaling Damage potential was an area we could immediately change to give players a chance to try out this single tweak in the context of the current game.

This change is rather small in a practical sense, and after you’ve played missions with the change, please let us know what you think.

Other Melee Changes:

Reduced the forward movement of the Warfan Heavy Attack.

Reflection Mod changed from “Damage reflected during Channeled blocking” to:

+40% Chance to Stagger on Block

+10% Chance to Stun on Block

Increased from common to uncommon

SOUND FIDELITY REVISION & FIXES:

Ensmallening Part 3 brought the replacement of xWMA with OPUS and a new ADPCM encoder! As the days progressed we realized we had to revise the code for how some of the sample codec stuff was working. Included in this code revision are fixes for many issues we were seeing with how the first ADPCM codec was behaving, as well as fixes for a number of crashes that related to the new Opus codec we started using during the previous mainline.

In order to receive this revision, this Update will force a re-download of some audio files. All for the greater good!

DOJO QUALITY OF LIFE ADDITIONS, CHANGES & FIXES:

Brand new Open Space Dojo room, Starlight Market! A large Corpus market hall with a view of the stars!

161 brand new Corpus themed Dojo Decorations! From Holo screens, to an Auctioneer’s platform, the Dojo is your Corpus oyster!

Clan Hall Ranking Order has been Removed. Build the Greater Hall, Grand Hall, and Grandest Hall in any order your Clan desires.

You can now preview Decorations. Room consoles give Architects the option to preview unfinished Decorations for 60 seconds.

We have reduced the red zone areas in the Dojo! Build near doors - or even right through them!

Research 6 backdrops in the Tenno Lab at the new Chromatic Research Console. Once Research is complete, you can change the Open Space backdrop from the room console!

Ceres Backdrop

Deimos Backdrop

Earth Backdrop

Saturn Backdrop

Venus Backdrop

Void Backdrop

Removed the Construct Solar Rail and Research Solar Rail consoles from the Orokin Lab. This also removes the Solar Rail pop-ups! Dragon Key research remains.

Years ago Solar Rails were retired in Update 16, but these consoles remained in the Orokin Lab. They are now also being officially retired as requested!

Completed Researched Dojo items will also be indicated as such with the ‘Researched’ icon in the backdrop.

Completed Research tracking for the Orokin Lab and Chem Lab now aligns with available recipes.

For example: The Ignis Wraith will now be hidden from Clan stats if the research is not complete, as per player feedback.

Dojo Research UI Pass:

Item prerequisites now appear in the hover popup.

The UI will also display if the prerequisite item has been researched yet or not.

Research now shows Research Requirements in the first on hover tab instead of Crafting Requirements until research has been completed.

Crafting Requirements appear in the second tab on unresearched items.

“Awaiting Funds” state now has its own icon so you can tell at a glance the difference between something being researched and something still requiring contributions.

“In Progress” state now shows updating time in hover popup.

Newly researched items show as “New” for 2 weeks in the hover popup.

Fixed seeing Note Beacon and Tributa Statue "text" through walls when placed in the Dojo.

Fixed Natural Vallis Land Mushroom Wide and Tall Dojo Decoration not having any collision.

Fixed inability to shrink the Infested Structural Arm Dojo Decoration after resizing it too large.

UI ADDITIONS & CHANGES:

Spice up your HUD with your very own HUD Customization options! Choose numerous HUD elements to recolor from your Color Palettes. You can also choose from a collection of presets that range from Color Blind friendly choices to Warframe-themed presets.

The World State Window has received a visual and functionality refresh!

Events Tab: Featured Events, such as Star Days, GOTL, Plague Star etc, are more informative at a glance.

Hover Functionality:

Invasions and Sorties now have hover states to reduce UI noise.

Steel Path Incursions will now appear in their own tab in the World State Window when swapping to Steel Path missions in Navigation.

Nightmare Alerts will now appear in the ‘Alerts’ tab in the World State Window.

CONSERVATION ADDITIONS, CHANGES & FIXES:

When animals ambiently spawn nearby (outside of active Trail encounters) you'll now hear an audio call cue coming from where they spawn, similar to the call you hear when using a Lure. This will help you to roughly know the "when, what, and which direction" when they appear as you wander around the Cambion Drift or Plains of Eidolon.

Reduced the minimum range ambient encounters can occur to 25-35 meters from 50 meters to allow animals to spawn closer to your location.

Added new ambient Mergoo encounters to the Plains of Eidolon! You can now find them out in the wild flying around or perched on the ground.

Added two idle animations for the Mergoo when Captured.

Fixed Companions targeting Condrocs, Kuakas & Mergoo in the Plains of Eidolon, thus eliminating any chances for Conservation.

CONTROLLER CHANGES & FIXES:

Added controller rumble to a few melee sounds, Tenno heavy landings, bullet jumps, and more!

Fixed Lavos’ elemental imbue UI prompting “1 2 3 4” by default instead of controller bindings. Also adjusted the UI so that the imbue and button callouts are more easily readable.

Fixed controllers not being able to toggle certain abilities off (like Wukong’s Cloud Walker and Lavos’ Vial Rush) without reactivating the ability menu.

Fixed ‘ascend/descend’ appearing as double-bound in Customize Controller > Placement options. They will now show their unique assignments.

Fixed custom config names not saving if your virtual cursor is not hovering over the config slot while using a controller.

Fixed ‘Failed to Create Session’ popup appearing twice when disconnecting controller cord and attempting to start a mission.

Fixed a crash while accessing Arsenal with a controller.

Fixed a non-functional button prompt appearing while trading and using a controller.

Optimizations:

Optimized many micro-stutters that would occur when using DirectX 12 (more improvements are in the works).

General Additions:

Added a ‘Self Shawzin Volume’ slider in the Audio options.

Added a grid backdrop to offerings at the vendors in Cetus, Fortuna, and Necralisk to differentiate if their requirements are met.

Added a slider for Horizon Depth of Field in Captura.

Added ‘Autofocus Textfields’ in Options > Interface. You can now choose ‘All’, ‘Exclude End of Match’, and ‘None’.

This option comes after we added an autofocus feature that places keyboard focus into the search box when the UI is brought up. Turned out to be quite disruptive as it would often pull focus onto unwanted text fields (search bars vs. chat in end of mission screen for example), as per player feedback: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1237310-unwanted-auto-focusing-into-the-search-box-u295/

Added VRAM display to in-game FPS panel.

Added a Razorwing Stance to the Diwata/Diwata Prime. The Melee Combo ‘Faerie's Waltz’ is then displayed in the Melee Combo screen while in Razorwing.

This also fixes missing FX trails for Diwata/Diwata Prime.

Changes:

Tweaked "An updated version of Warframe is now available! Please return to your Dry Dock or a Relay, then exit and run the launcher." to indicate you can dock at most Relays now.

Made enemy flow improvements to the Corpus Ship Remastered Defense mission. Enemies will spawn and navigate closer to the Defense Objective for less waiting!

Made the following changes to decrease the difficulty of the final fight in the Deadlock Protocol Quest:

Max number of 2 Errant Specters alive at a time.

Increased the amount of time before Errant Specters find an Errant enemy to buff.

Errant enemies can only be buffed to a max level 20.

Added more helpful tips to the Xoris hint: “Hold then release [Button] to throw the Xoris and capture Specter Particles”.

Lowered the Protea Specter’s Blaze Artillery turret damage.

Increased the Protea Specter’s Shield recharge delay.

Reduced the Protea Specter’s Health and Shields.

Added hint when Protea Specter is vulnerable to the charge Xoris: “Detonate the Xoris while Protea rewinds!”

Changed the Protea Specter’s Temporal Anchor to trigger at a consistent time to make her easier to hit within the window.

Changed the Asterite feeding bundle for Helminth from 1500 to 300.

Player feedback and comparing the amount to other Asterite uses we concluded the original amount of 1500 was far too high!

Plexus is now rewarded when completing The Archwing Quest.

As mentioned above in the Corpus Railjack section, with the permanent addition of Valkyr Prime + her accompanying Prime weapon Relics, and Nyx Prime + her accompanying Prime weapon Relics to Corpus Railjack missions, we must adjust some of the Ducat selling prices as their Rarities have changed:

Valkyr Prime Chassis: from 100 to 65 Ducats

Valkyr Prime Systems: from 100 to 65 Ducats

Scindo Prime Handle: from 45 to 25 Ducats

Cernos Prime String: from 45 to 25 Ducats

Critical Delay and Creeping Bullseye have been given a buff to their Critical Chance from +48% to +187%.

These new Mods have a greater effect if Fire Rate is below 2.5, and this buff brings a synergy between these Mods. As a result, Critical Delay and Creeping Bullseye can no longer be equipped with Point Strike and Pistol Gambit respectively.

Increased the max set bonus (all 3 Mods) for Umbral Intensify from 50% to 75% to match the other Umbra Mods.

You can now properly waypoint floating Scintillant in Isolation Vault missions. When you waypoint a Scintillant it will mark it as such instead of creating a default waypoint on the wall through/beyond it.

Lures and Pheromones now have consistent placement in the Conservation Gear wheel and are both ordered according to the related Conservation animal. Additionally, if you do not own a Pheromone, it will still appear in the wheel but will simply not be usable.

Reduced Odonata (Archwing Quest) Component Crafting times. The time barrier to craft the Odonata for new players felt excessive, as the Archwing Quest is an early step in overall progression and of course crucial for Railjack.

Odonata Components: Reduced to 1 minute each from 30 minutes each.

Odonata Archwing: Reduced from 1 hour to 10 minutes.

Xaku Specters can now cast all four of their Abilities!

Numerous AI navigation and spawn points improvements have been made in the Corpus Ship, Grineer Forest, Plains of Eidolon, and Orokin Derelict tilesets.

Updated Initiation and Rank 1 Principled Resource requirements for Arbiters of Hexis Syndicate to use more new-player friendly Resources. Alloy Plate and Gallium are now required instead of Nano Spores and Neural Sensors.

Updated various weapon and Noggle bundle in-game Market icons to fit updated UI dimensions.

Removed the ability to sell the Mutalist Alad V Assassinate Blueprint from the Patient Zero Quest.

Feburary 18,2021 Forum Post

Nightwave Arcane Helmet Clarification

Nora Night’s latest Cred Offerings include the Arcane Scorpion Helmet Blueprint, a long retired item since Hotfix 13.2.3. This item was actually meant to be a brand new Operator cosmetic, Operator Wolf Hood, but the backend data got a little switched around. The Arcane Scorpion Helmet Blueprint will run it’s store life span, at which time the new Operator Wolf Hood will take its intended place in future rotations.

Nihil Boss Fight Rerun

Are you prepared to face Nihil once again, Tenno?

Nora Night’s Cred Offerings will provide both the Nihil Key and Oubliette required to face off against Nihil. Once you have acquired both, interact with the Oubliette Decoration to fight.

The Nihil Key grants you one fight against Nihil, at which you’ll need to acquire another Key to go again. Nora Night will offer the Nihil Key in her Cred Offerings periodically.

For those who did not originally fight Nihil during Glassmaker, using this Key route will grant you the Vitrica heavy blade. Tenno who have already acquired the Vitrica can enjoy an End of Mission Riven Mod reward!

Look for the Nihil Key in next week's Cred Offerings!

Optimizations

• Optimized stutters and hitches that could occur on low-end systems when arriving in a mission.
• Made a few micro-optimizations to Dx12 rendering.
• Made a micro-optimization to the rendering system.
• Made a micro-optimization to abilities that move enemies (Vauban's Vortex etc).

Feburary 11, 2021 Forum Post - Star Days

Star Days are here!

Star Days are all about the things that keep these planets spinning. Love, Stardust. Love in all its forms. The love of a planet for the stranger who turned their fortunes around. That would be you, Stardust. Give love away, and it multiplies.

Visit Ticker in Fortuna to hear tales of love, and provide Debt-Bonds for affectionate items like the new Eros Wing Ephemera, Ticker Floof, and more!

*The Eros Arrow Skin available in Star Days has been modified to remove its one use Gear wheel functionality. It is now a permanent Arrow Skin attachment via the Arsenal by popular player request!

Optimizations:

• Improved auto-vsync's handling of dropped-frames.
  • Auto-vsync works by monitoring the current average frame-rate to decide if you're currently running fast enough to hit your display's refresh-rate: if your system can't keep up we disengage vsync. The theory is people generally prefer a bit of tearing to jerky frame steps; this is absolutely critical if you're being crushed below 30FPS because the next vsync step would lock you to 20FPS. This approach works quite well in a lot of cases because on modern displays quite often the tearing isn't even visible (and if you're playing Windowed or Borderless the system will likely hide this completely).
  • The problem is that you can poison that average with a really bad over-budget frame and it will disengage vsync for a few seconds until the average settles back down again. You could see this easily if you went to your arsenal from the ESC menu, waited for a second, and then exited -- there'd be a really bad hitch and then as the camera moved back to where you were standing in your ship it would tear because vsync was disabled.
  • The new code uses a simple filter on the average frame-time calculation to ignore these bad frames (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winsorized_mean if you're curious). We're still going to optimize the causes of the dropped-frames but in the meantime this should greatly diminish the ugliness they cause.
• Enabled systemic micro-optimizations for PC builds (using SSE3 since our minspec has required it for a long time).
• Fixed a memory bloat that could occur when running in Dx12.
• Eliminated hitch when loading the World State Window.
• Made many, many optimizations to rendering on all platforms.

DUPLICATE PROTECTION!

Intermission rewards are sometimes a repeat of the previous Nightwave series, and while newer players might delight in getting some of these new items, we wanted to add a way for it to still be rewarding for returning Dreamers! We accomplish this by giving a 50 Nightwave Intermission Credit reward instead of a previously owned item. This does not apply to items such as Warframe Slots, or consumable items (such as Forma), but rather for owned, unique items such as previous Nightwave Cosmetics.

Changes:

• Added Lavos Cordatus, Mag Gauss, Protea Mavv, Protea Telema, and Xaku Kintsu Helmet Blueprints to the Nightwave Store rotation.

It’s no secret that Nightwave: The Glassmaker lasted much longer than we had hoped. As mentioned on Devstream #151, the next Nightwave installment will be dramatically simpler to shift narrative focus to The New War and beyond.

Fixes:

• Fixed Railjack Navigation map not releasing drag functionality when a dialog appears resulting in odd camera movements.
• Fixed hearing multiple equip sounds with increasing volume when equipping a Warframe with an Exalted weapon.
• Fixed Baruuk’s Desolate Hands dagger projectile sounds becoming repetitious over time.
• Fixed Teralyst spawn sound being overly loud.
• Fixed all mentions of "joystick" for Fr/Es/Tr localization.

Changes:

• Deimos Isolation Vault Bounty Waypoints on the Bait that need to be collected for the first objective now only appear if you're nearby (used to display at any range which was messy).
• Removed unreleased footwear item being Chat linkable.

Fixes:

• Fixed the game freezing on startup on 3-core CPUs.
• Fixed a progression stopper in the Heart of Deimos quest due to the Through and Beyond phase infinitely looping.
• Fixed a secondary crash that could occur if your GPU driver crashed while running Dx12.
• Fixed launcher auto-detection of DirectX 12 support. Previously we would have exposed Dx12 on laptops where the discrete GPU only supported Dx11 but the fallback IGP supported Dx12; ie: if you selected Dx12 you would get extremely low frame-rate because it wasn't actually using your GPU.
• Fixed no Sentients spawning in Lua Survival missions.
• Fixed Cambion Drift despawning prematurely before the Necralisk gate closes, causing the game to place you in front of Loid.
• Fixed killing a Vasca Kavat on the Plains of Eidolon not counting for the Pest Control Achievement.
• Fixed missing firing sound for the Khom’s first shot if the Hecaton Skin is equipped.
• Fixed a script error when spawning a Specter.

Ensmallening Part 3: Mesh Accuracy + Sound Fidelity.

Tenno,

We bring you Part 3 of the ensmallening. By now you already know about Part 1 and Part 2,but now we will go into how we are changing Mesh Accuracy and Sound Fidelity. We expect the download size to be 7 GB with an estimated 3.6 GB of savings overall, meaning the game just got 3.6 GB smaller in file size! These numbers may vary slightly.

Mesh Accuracy:

A big part of the Ensmallening Part 3 is how Meshes are changing. Not only are we reducing filesize, we are also significantly improving quality. Look to this Before and After for the improvements you can expect:

BEFORE:

Take care to observe the eyes and mouth and ear details. Jagged details are widespread.

AFTER:

Take care to see the improved contours and details across the Mesh. A much smoother finished piece!

Sound Fidelity:

This one is for the audiophiles!

We are making some changes to the way we handle encoding of Warframe’s audio. We are replacing xWMA with OPUS and a new ADPCM encoder! ADPCM will provide less noise and brighter mids. It also has improved spatialization so that the full audio mix just feels more alive.

Here is a spectrum plot of sine sweep 20-20k with the new ADPCM encoder above the old. Much improved!

In general, Opus will really improve the way you hear Warframe’s accompanying music. We also expect this to improve general synchronization and any start up lag! Stay tuned for a future Devstream where we go over this in a bit more detail, too, for the audiophiles out there!

DTLS Roll-Out

We are testing some new network code out in this Hotfix. Even though we’ve tested it extensively on the Test Cluster we need more coverage!

The primary goal of these changes is to improve networking for Xbox players by replacing some proprietary network code; when these changes make it to Xbox they will enable our automatic proxy service that already helps players with Strict NAT and other network problems on other platforms (this is something we’ve wanted to get to Xbox players for a long time).

The added advantage of this new code is that it should be more secure and more robust on networks that corrupt network packets (we already defend against this to some degree but the new code is more thorough). This won’t make your ping any better but if something is mangling network packets we might be able to avoid it causing bugs in the game.

We’ll be monitoring the roll-out closely and will be able to disable quickly if we encounter problems. Please comment any related issues you have in this thread - thanks!

Optimizations:

Reduced the number of DirectX12 micro-stutters that would occur mostly right after loading into a new area.

Optimized download speed for fresh installs from the Epic Online Store or from the stand-alone installer.

Made some micro-optimizations to rendering on all platforms.

Made micro-optimizations to DirectX 11 and DirectX 12 rendering.

Optimized away several MB of memory used by DirectX 11 to track shaders.

Optimized away 7 MB of memory used by DirectX 12 to track shaders.

Optimized DirectX 12 shader memory footprint and run-time performance.

Fixed memory leak that would occur when running the Enhanced Rendering in DirectX 12.

• Added missing Orphix Venom Leaderboards to the Archived section.

Changes:

• Added a confirmation prompt when selecting to ‘REMOVE ALL’ Mods in the Upgrade screen to alleviate accidental removals.
  • Accidental removal happened quite frequently when using a controller due to the button to remove a single Mod and all Mods are the same, and is dependent on whether your controller cursor is over a Mod at the time.

• Fixed Deimos Isolation Vault Bounties displaying with "no expiry", when in reality, the rewards do rotate (like the normal Bounties do).
• Fixed Necramech waypoint not being the standard numbered waypoint.

• Fixed the Day of The Dead Voidrig Helmet Skin and Snake Voidrig Helmet Skin not being compatible with Bonewidow.
• Fixed Necramech Arsenal ordering Arch-Guns into 2 groups: weapons with Gravimag adapters, and those without. There's no need to move no-Gravimag weapons into their own subgroup here, because Gravimag Adapters are no longer required to equip a weapon to the Necramech.

• Fixed inconsistent extend/collapse Speargun states when equipped with the Carcinus Speargun Skin.

• Removed Solaris prisoners in the Operation tileset as no Granum related activities are meant to be present in the respective tileset.
• Fixed another Host migration related scoring exploit.
• Fixed an End of Mission crash when an Orphix attempts to spawn.
• Fixed rare cases where Resonators would spawn behind locked puzzle doors in the tileset.
  • It is unlikely that this should come up again, but if it does, it is essential that you take a screenshot with the in-game tool using the F6 key and send the unedited file to Support; screenshots taken this way have special embedded data that will help us find out why the game chose to place the Resonator where it shouldn’t be. Thanks!
• Fixed having Voidrigs Storm Shroud run out on your personal Necramech while you’re in a rent-a-Mech resulting in your personal Necramech becoming invincible.
• Fixed Extraction countdown being reset by enemies/Pets entering the Extraction zone (also occurs in normal Survival missions).

Changes:

• The Mining drop rate of Necrathene has been doubled! To make this change, Heciphron Mining drop rate has been reduced by 6% to balance the Necrathene increase.
  • This change is similar to how we increased the Mining drop rate of Thaumica in Deimos Arcana to help alleviate Necramech crafting pain points.
• Upon login of this Hotfix, accounts that owned either the Necramech Snake Skin and/or Voidrig Day of The Dead Skin will be given the corresponding Necramech Helmets. Players who purchase these Skins in the future will get the Helmet automatically.
• Adjusted Flagellocanth hit box to allow for easier targeting.
• The Teralyst spawn sound loop will no longer play while in Cetus.
• Modified the Pet Incubation screen to allow you to purchase Companion Inventory Slots for Platinum if you need them, thus removing the extra step of having to leave and use the Market. (I.e. behaves like when you try to claim a weapon from the Foundry but have no free Slots).

• Fixed Railjack objectives and enemies not spawning if Client player is in Pilot seat during load-in.

Operation: Orphix Venom Changes & Fixes:

• Over the course of the Holiday break, the team continued to track and fix Operation exploits. Any scores that were determined to be achieved with these exploits have been (and will continue to be) removed from the Leaderboards, and temporary or full suspensions have been issued where appropriate.
• Fixed proper AABC reward not being given when achieving the Endurance max 36th Orphix.
• Fixed an issue where Affinity collected in a Necramech wouldn't propagate to your Arch Gun if you Transferenced in from the Operator.
• Fixed second Necramech death resulting in a functionality loss as the Operator until Operator respawns.
• Fixed having the same Archwing Weapon equipped in the Heavy Weapon slot and the Necramech Primary slot resulting in receiving double Affinity for the weapon.
• Fixed an issue where the player's inventory can end up with two instances of the Necramech's gun, which resulted in losing earned Affinity when Reviving as your Warframe.
• Fixed missing Extraction UI if a Host migration occurs after killing the 36th Orphix.
• Fixed Focus gained by the Necramech not being saved at End of Mission.

Arch-gun Weapon Inventory Slots Explanation and Fix

When we first introduced Necramechs to Warframe, they did not have a “head” component that you could change. You just owned an entire Necramech and that was it. In order to increase the cosmetic flexibility of Necramechs we made the head modular, giving you the ability to change it the same way you can change a Warframe’s Helmet. A script was run that retroactively gave you the Helmets of Necramechs you already owned so you didn't have to build them again to get the Helmet.

A mistake in that script caused players to receive extra copies of the Mausolon gun (which comes with Crafting/Claiming a Necramech in the Foundry), but without increasing your number of Archwing Weapon inventory Slots to hold them. This caused players who had already filled up their Inventory Slots to receive an error message that said "Invalid slots: Contact support" when trying to build a new Necramech or Archwing weapon. Selling the excess Mausolons you received would only temporarily suppress this error because as soon as you built another Arch-gun, you would again own more Arch-guns than you owned Inventory Slots.

The fix: upon login, if you own more Arch-guns than Slots, your Inventory count is corrected in the backend. You will still receive the "Invalid Slots" error if you try to claim a Necramech or Arch-gun from the Foundry, however, when you sell excess Arch-guns or buy Slots from the Market, the problem fixes itself for real instead of just suppressing the error message.

Changes:

• Necramech HUD reticles will now always be white, same as other reticles, to ensure it's always as visible as possible.
• Disabled ability to open the Pause Menu after catching a fish since it could lead to incorrect state.
• ‘Invert Tap/Hold Abilities’ option now lets you control the setting for each valid Warframe.
• Numerous Warframes Abilities new and old have been given the ‘Tap/Hold’ functionality to do varying actions. Feedback showed that having the option to Invert the ‘Tap/Hold’ across the board to all valid Warframes was not ideal, as some Ability default functionalities are preferred. Upon selecting the ‘Invert Tap/Hold Abilities’ in the Options menu, you'll be met with a new screen allowing you to pick and choose which valid Warframes this applies to!
• Removed Magnus shell casing eject sounds to match revolver aesthetic / animation.

Fixes:

• Fixed selecting currently active Boosters while Market loads resulting in a functionality loss.
• Fixed Survival Life Support Towers not spawning after 34 minutes.
• Fixed Infusing Lavos' Vial Rush to another Warframe not allowing it to inflict any Damage/Status.
• Fixed Garuda’s Blending Talons Augment Mod not hitting enemies behind you in the Range indicated.
• Fixed Bonewidow’s Meathook Health absorb percent progression not following its ability ranks sequentially.

• Operation Orphix will now sort higher on Navigation’s list of current events than fissures or ghouls

Update 29.6

December 18, 2020 Forum Post - Operation: Orphix Venom

OPERATION: ORPHIX VENOM

The Sentients are back. Armed with weaponized pulses cleverly designed to disable Warframes, they're staging a takeover of enemy vessels. Deploy your Necramech to survive incoming hordes for as long as possible and earn Blueprints for Lavos, the newest Warframe, plus much more!

Operation: Orphix Venom is a limited-time event and ends on January 18 at 2 p.m. ET on PC.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

With your Warframe compromised, you’ll need to rely on your Necramech to defend enemy ships against a total Sentient takeover. If you don’t yet own a Necramech, you’ll find Necramechs throughout the Operation level that you can Transference into!

Aboard the ambushed Grineer and Corpus vessels, be prepared to face new Sentient adversaries. The Orphix are insidiously engineered to interrupt Transference and wreak havoc. You’ll need to take them out with the strength of your Necramech and Operator, along with the Orphix Resonators, and keep the Sentient Control meter below 100%. Last as long as you can to earn Phasic Cells to exchange for Rewards and stave off the invasion!

Avoid defeat at all costs, Tenno.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

Operation: Orphix Venom will not be easy and requires preparation. You must have completed both the “Heart of Deimos” and “The War Within” Quests in order to begin.

There are 3 tiers of difficulty:

Operation: Orphix Venom

Operation: Orphix Venom - Advanced

Operation: Orphix Venom - Endurance

Progress through each to encounter the enemy at varying difficulties to earn different Rewards along the way!

OPERATION REWARDS

Visit the Necralisk on Deimos and talk to Father, who’s eager to demonstrate the power of his Necramechs against the Sentient threat. He’s hoarding a stockpile of special gear that he’ll trade for Phasic Cells, including the Blueprint for the master experimenter and newest Warframe, Lavos, Necramech Mods and more! BUT - there’s more! You can also earn a number of rewards also by just playing the Operation - including Lavos! It’ll be up to you if you want to save your Phasic Cells for Lavos and other items, or get lucky and earn select items within the Operation! Drop Tables are here:https://n8k6e2y6.ssl.hwcdn.net/repos/hnfvc0o3jnfvc873njb03enrf56.html

• Lavos Blueprint & Parts
• Cedo Blueprint & Parts
• New Necramech Mods
• Cryptanaut Necramech Helmet
• Archgun Skins
  • Cortege Supulchrax Skin
  • Morgha Supulchrax Skin
• Returning Scarlet Spear Items
  • Ceti Lacera Blueprint
  • Basmu Blueprint
  • Stance Forma Blueprint
  • The Ballroom Simulacrum
  • Phased Clan Sigil
  • Glyphed Clan Sigil
  • Gilded Clan Sigil
  • Warframe Arcanes

SCORING & PHASIC CELLS

Each Orphix has an initial value of 100 points in the first Operation mission. As your fight evolves, so will the Orphix, awarding you more points at a greater difficulty. Orphix will be worth 200 points at the hardest difficulty (Endurance), and scale up from there! Kill Sentients to increase your score as well. The higher your score, the more Phasic Cells you’ll walk away with.

Try to survive for as long as you can - 36 Orphix will be the maximum amount in the Endurance mission, so once you’ve hit 36, it’s time to extract! The first two Operation missions have a limit of 24 Orphix. Players looking to maximize their score should head to Endurance! .

Phasic Cells can be earned in any Operation mission. But remember - Endurance gives the most points per Orphix, so you’ll earn the most Phasic Cells there. A prepared and coordinated squad even more so! While this Operation is possible Solo, best results will come from coordinated Squads!

CLAN LEADERBOARDS AND CLAN TROPHIES

We will be turning on Leaderboards after 1 or 2 Hotfixes to ensure the competition begins after key issues that players report are resolved. We will advise all Tenno when Leaderboards come online!

Clan Scores are determined based on the sum of all participating members' best scores. We balanced this around about 50% member participation for Gold Tier trophies.

Clan Tier	Terracotta	Bronze	Silver	Gold
Ghost	1390	5860	13920	18850
Shadow	3510	22275	69120	137250
Storm	11700	75250	230400	457500
Mountain	35100	222750	691200	1372500
Moon	117000	742500	2304000	4575000

NEW SENTIENT ENEMIES:

3 New Sentient Enemies will be encountered during Operation: Orphix Venom and can be spawned in the Simulacrum once fully Scanned!

Ortholyst

This lightweight Sentient mounts itself to solid ground in order to deploy massive long range cannons.

Choralyst

These ethereal Sentients attack with both a sonic barrage and a thunderous homing orb.

Summulyst

A high-order Sentient that bifurcates its body, creating a portal it uses to summon reinforcements and projectiles. Armed with twin cannons.

NEW WARFRAME: LAVOS

A manipulator of the physical realm, imbue Elements into his Abilities at your command. Lavos is also the first Warframe that consumes no Energy, relying instead on a cool-down system to replenish his Abilities.

NEW NECRAMECH SKIN

Changes:

Isolation / Arcana Bounty Changes & Fixes:

• Rebalanced Isolation Vault rewards to account for corrected behaviour where the base Isolation Vault was not dropping from all possible rewards.
  • To break down the issue: From the changes in 29.5.9, you would get one reward for completing the whole Isolation Vault and the one it gives you is from the “bin” matching the difficulty of the Isolation Vault. So a Tier 1 (Level 30-40) Isolation Vault could only roll from the "Commons" bin, Tier 2 (Level 40-50) Isolation Vaults could only roll from the "Uncommons", and Tier 3 only from "Rares".
  • The Isolation Vault Bounties now combine all 3 newly balanced tiers. You can see the droptable breakdown on our Official PC Droptable site.
• Removed unintentional 2500 Endo reward from the possible Isolation Vault rewards.
• Fixed Isolation Vault Bounties disappearing from Necralisk Mother after completing them for Clients until you reload the Necralisk hub.
• Fixed Matchmaking settings mixing Tiers of Isolation Vault Bounties, resulting in being put into the incorrect Isolation Vault Bounty (IE selecting Tier 3 and being put into Tier 1).

Necramech Changes & Fixes:

• Bonewidow’s Ironbride can now do a neutral and forward Heavy Attack that throws a damaging projectile!
• You can now control the direction of Bonewidow’s Meathook ability instead of being stuck in the initial direction before activating.
• Mix-and-match Necramech Helmets on both Bonewidow and Voidrig in the Arsenal!
• Both Voidrig/Bonewidow Necramechs, Morgha, and Cortege weapons can be purchased in the Market for Platinum. Necramech’s also have their own category in the Market!
• Fully crafted components for the Necramech/weapons are now tradeable.
• Removed the Gravimag requirement on Archwing weapons for Necramechs.
• Vazarin Dash, Trinity’s Blessing, Equinox's Mend, Rejuvenate Aura, and Arcane Pulse no longer heal Necramechs. Out of 21 sources of healing, these five slipped through.
• Necramechs now transition to aiming pose faster when in the air.
• Fixed crash that could occur if a Bonewidow was using Ironbride at the wrong moment on returning to Town.
• Fixed an issue where you would get a second jump sound when aiming with a Necramech in the air.
• Fixed an issue where Revive XP penalty didn't always apply to the Necramech gun if it was the same gun as your Heavy slot or Archwing loadout.
• Fixed your first inworld waypoint not appearing if done in your Necramech.
• Fixed neither Host nor Client not receiving Thermia if they’are in their Necramech when the reward is given.
• Fixed a potential issue with Saya's Vigil if you were in a Necramech when it tried to give you a Scanner charge.
• Fixed UI remaining scrambled after entering your Necramech in a Vome residue puddle.

Changes:

• Replaced Weapon Blueprint requirements in Necraloid Sacrifices with the associated Barrel Component Blueprint, thus removing the Mastery Rank restriction on advancing Ranks.

• Inbox messages with transmissions now have a replay button that pulses.
• A Mastery Rank requirements popup will now show when trying to purchase a weapon you’re not eligible for yet.

Fixes:

• Fixed a crash when Transferring to Operator while simultaneously activating a Remote Observer in Captura.
• Fixed issues with Baro’s new Prisma Dual Decurions having [PH], missing icons, and the wrong texture when used as a Heavy Weapon.
• Fixed the Prisma Dual Decurions not having the intended 2 V polarities by default.
• Fixed Clients falling through map while equipping a K-Drive.
• Fixed Conservation Tag rewards not showing the count when there's more than one Tag given.
• Fixed missing Kela De Thaym central platform during her boss fight when skipping her cutscene.
• Fixed Arch-Gun becoming invisible and being unable to reload it when summoned as Mag and casting her "Absorb" form of Magnetize.
• Fixed missing “spinning around your finger” animation for the Euphona Prime Alt Fire.
• Fixed mouse movement being shared between Warframe and Epic overlay when the Epic Social Menu is open.
• Fixed Boss Health bar appearing when viewing the Shadow Stalker and Acolyte Codex entries.
• Fixed Dojo Pigment icon overlapping the End of Mission reward screen UI.

Isolation & Arcana Bounty Flow Changes

Read the official Dev Workshop here for full explanation and details on the following changes: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1240567-isolation-arcana-bounty-flow-changes/

Isolation Vault Flow Changes:

We have 4 main pillars of Isolation Vault flow changes. Not only do these changes significantly loosen the required routine, but they also aim to further improve the process for less new player confusion.

1. You will now only ever need to complete a specific Tier of Isolation Bounty once to unlock the next Tier.
   1. For example: Complete the Tier 1 Isolation Vault near Necralisk Gates. You can then leave Deimos or even log off, and the next time you return to Cambion Drift you can go immediately to the Tier 2 Isolation Vault Bounty location and run that Bounty. No need to run the Tier 1 bounty again if you don’t want to.
2. Once the Isolation Vault Tier is completed, you can run the Arcana Bounty at that same Tier.
   1. Similar to the new Isolation Vault flow above, you can leave the session and upon returning to Cambion Drift you can go straight into the Arcana Bounty without first completing the Isolation Vault at that location.
3. Each Isolation Vault Bounty Tier now has a specific Mother location in Cambion Drift to provide a concrete flow with less confusion.
   1. Tier 1 = Mother located in ‘UNDULATUM’
   2. Tier 2 = Mother located between ‘ALBRECHT'S PROSPECT’ and ‘CATABOLIC GUTTER’
   3. Tier 3 = Mother located in ‘THE ABSCESS’
4. All 3 Tiers of Isolation Vault Bounties are now available from Mother within the Necralisk.

Isolation Vault / Arcana Bounty Droptable Changes:

Now that the Arcana Bounties will be more easily accessible, it’s time to rebalance the drop tables:

1. Both Isolation Vault Bounties and Arcana Bounties now share a droptable. There are 3 different droptables for each Isolation/Arcana Bounty Tier that rotates every ~3 hours, allowing you to selectively choose the reward you seek and when - exactly how other Open World Bounties work.
   1. This rotation follows the same window as the Bounty rotation in the Necralisk.
2. Rewards within the Isolation Vault/Arcana Bounties have been rebalanced to provide a better kick at the can for higher coveted rewards:

Droptable content breakdown:

• Orokin Matrixes
  • Less % chance overall.
• Relics
  • Midpoint % between the two old Bounty types.
• Necramech Weapon Parts
  • Now split up among the three droptables so you can target.
• Necramech Mods
  • Similar drop % chance, but split up to allow more targeted runs.
• Deimos Arcanes
  • Significantly higher drop % chance.
• Scintillant (T1)
  • Midpoint drop % chance between the two old Bounty types
• Weapon parts (T2 & T3)
  • Slightly reduced: You only ever need 1 of the Sporothrix and Arum Spinosa Blueprint. Getting all the way to the Arcana Bounties and receiving another Weapon Blueprint is not a feel good moment. Although this doesn’t completely eliminate getting duplicates, the drop % reduction does allow for better chances towards the other rewards.

No longer in the tables: Both of these have been taken out to allow for better odds at getting newer/desired rewards.

• Rare Deimos Gems
• Endo

Our Warframe PC Droptable site has been updated to reflect the above changes.

BONUS: Sporothrix and Arum Spinosa Blueprints are now tradable!

To balance out the Weapon Blueprint drop % reduction we’ve made the Sporothrix and Arum Spinosa Blueprints tradable. The Sporothrix and Arum Spinosa parts were already Tradable, but it’s now one step further.

Optimizations:

• Made systemic micro-optimizations to shader memory on PC and XB1.
• Fixed a giant memory leak caused by disabling Multi-Threaded Rendering (Huge thanks to .Zexal for helping diagnose!)

Changes:

• Bonewidow Necramech’s can now be found patrolling or in its deactivated state in The Cambion Drift, similar to Voidrig Necramechs.

Fixes:

• Fixed rare DirectX 12 crash when exiting Warframe.
• Fixed rare DirectX 12 crash that could occur in a combat-heavy situation.
• Fixed loss of functionality if you used a controller to open up the Pause Menu while viewing Bounties and viewed a squad member's profile. You can no longer open the Pause Menu while viewing Bounties.
• Fixed Grineer Crewship explosion FX appearing blocky when destroyed in Railjack missions. This also fixes an unnecessary texture loading in.
• Fixed some animation issues where the Quanta Vandal’s arms wouldn’t fully open after reload. This also fixed related motion blur on reload.
• Fixed script error with the Quanta Vandal.
• Fixed script error with Excalibur’s Slash Dash.

Hotfix 29.5.7

Expand

December 10, 2020 Forum Post

Additions:

Our overarching goal with this Hotfix aims to address Necramech feedback and fix lingering bugs. As you may have seen in our 2020 wrap up post, we’re working on a mini Necramech Operation that will feature Necramechs in regular missions! As the days progress towards that launch we will continue to review Necramech changes and fixes based on Community feedback. If you come across new issues after this Hotfix, please let us know in this thread!

Bonewidow Changes & Fixes:

On today’s menu we have a hearty serving of Bonewidow changes & fixes. Let’s breakdown the nutritional facts here: Arquebex is a very high damage weapon for Voidrig, as it makes sense for his damage output kit. Bonewidow is our Melee Necramech more focused on survivability and endurance. Exalted Ironbride is not going to match 1:1 with Arquebex, but that doesn’t mean Ironbride (or the rest of her kit) should be overshadowed. The below aim to address common Community feedback to provide Bonewidow that extra dash of spice.

• Necramech Melee Mods (Pressure Point, Fury, Reach) now apply to Exalted Ironbride.
• Renamed Bonewidow’s Shield Maiden ‘Shield Bash’ to ‘Maiden’s Kiss’.
• Reduced Bonewidow’s Maiden’s Kiss to cost 15 Energy.
• Bonewidow’s Meathook thrown enemies now have 100% Status Chance.
• Bonewidow’s Meathook now drains a percent of the target's max Health vs flat damage. When the target is thrown the Damage dealt is a percentage of the target's current Health.
  • Both of these changes help to scale Meathook with varying enemy levels.
• Bonewidow Necramech can now reflect damage while blocking with Shield Maiden (this is exclusive to the player’s version of Bonewidow).
• Bonewidow will now absorb enemy attacks for a few seconds after activating Shield Maiden, and the absorbed damage will be added to the shield’s Health.
• Enemy Bonewidow Shield Maiden now has a limited amount of Health and can be destroyed.
• Enemy Bonewidow will no longer reattach her arm while wielding Exalted Ironbride. One thing at a time!
• Removed Ammo UI when Bonewidow is wielding Ironbride.
• Fixed a crash when using Bonewidow’s Meathook on a Deimos Mitosid.
• Fixed Bonewidow’s Shield Maiden not deactivating upon Transferring out/back in. This resulted in your shield being on your chest (not active). However, when you pressed Melee you would do Maiden’s Kiss, and it would cost Energy, instead of the normal Necramech unarmed attack.
• Fixed Bonewidow’s Firing Line affecting Companions/Pets.
• Fixed Bonewidow’s Firing Line ragdolling you.
• Fixed enemy Bonewidow sometimes getting stuck with Ironbride out and being unable to switch back to its gun.
• Fixed Bonewidow Melee attacking while using Shield Maiden (Maiden’s Kiss attack) would show Atlas' Landslide ability pop-up text.
• Fixed Bonewidow’s Firing Line animation not matching its current shield state correctly.
• Fixed Bonewidow’s rear hit box getting hit from front attacks.
• Fixed Bonewidow visual-only "Ability Use Prevented" problem after toggling Shield Maiden and Ironbride off.
• Fixed enemy Bonewidows not knowing how to initiate a Maiden’s Kiss. Pucker up!
• Fixed enemy Bonewidows sometimes using incorrect idle animations that would cause their shield to look unequipped when it should be and/or their sword to be held incorrectly.
• Fixed enemy Bonewidows periodically playing the Shield Maiden unequip animation during a Melee attack combo.
• Fixed Bonewidow’s Shield Maiden not deactivating after redeploying/Transferring in and out but still bashing with Shield instead of normal Melee. This also fixes a related issue where Ironbride would only execute the first attack in its combo chain instead of the full loop.
• Fixed an issue with Bonewidow’s Shield Maiden blocking bounds becoming very small when attacked. This was causing Bonewidow to take damage instead of the shield.
• Fixed Bonewidow’s Meathook not properly skewering the target if done by a Client player. Previously the ragdoll would appear to float around.
• Fixed enemies held by Bonewidow’s Meathook able to cast abilities.
• Fixed Bonewidow’s Meathook not displaying "Not Enough Energy" UI message.
• Fixed enemies on Bonewidows Meathook teleporting to their last known spot instead of just being dropped when activating Shield Maiden at the same time.

Voidrig Changes & Fixes:

• Doubled the enemy Voidrig recovery animation time to allow a longer opportunity window to shoot the weak spots.
• Fixed Voidrig Necraweb ability “Press to throw” tool-tip remaining on screen after Transferring out.
• Fixed Voidrig Necraweb canister floating in the air and tool-tip lingering if the canister isn’t tossed within a minute.

General Necramech Changes & Fixes:

• Firing your gun while Hovering as a Necramech is now considered to be in an “Aiming” state, meaning Mods like Critical Focus and Marked Target will apply again.
• Fixed (again) Client Necramechs losing gained Affinity if the Host migrated.
  • We had this originally fixed but then it regressed with Hotfix 29.5.6 - our apologies.
• Enemy Necramechs (Voidrig & Bonewidow) will now rotate its body to indicate that it is about to slide towards you.
• Adjusted Necramechs desired spacing between players to avoid sometimes standing right on top of you.
• Fixed Operator appearing invisible and floating after exiting your Necramech as Operator for the second time as a Client.
• Fixed cases where both Voidrig and Bonewidow wouldn’t attack with its currently equipped weapon.
• Fixed Warframe stats displaying incorrect values in the Arsenal when equipping a Necramech.
• Fixed Necramech weapon getting stuck continuously firing after dashing while shooting.

DirectX 12 Changes and Fixes:

• Fixed crash on launch when using DirectX12 with older Windows 10 versions (prior to Windows 10 Creators Update).
• Improved DirectX 12 mode stability - fixed potential crash related to GPU particles.

Optimizations:

• Improved frame-rate consistency when using automatic vsync.

Changes:

• You can now Build Kitguns at Father in the Necralisk and Gild/Provide/Title your Kitgun! Everything a Kitgun vendor should do!
• Extended context action range of the Bait console when grabbing the key during an Isolation Vault Bounty to help prevent sliding past it or standing on top of it.
• Little blue Necramech and little blue Warframe Helmet icons now mark your Necramech/Warframe respectively on the minimap when not being “controlled” to aid in loss prevention.
• Reduced Nekros Soul Punch area-of-effect physics impulse so it no longer launches enemies across the solar system.
• Improved stability with third-party overlays and injection tools (Steam Overlay, OBS, Discord, FPS Counters etc).
• Improvements to Corpus Ship level navigation where AI could get stuck.
• Running out of Railjack Boost stamina will now clear the Boost state to address Boost not recharging once depleted.
• Lowered Xaku Grasp of Lohk ability sounds.

Fixes:

• Fixed being able to equip both the Primed Fulmination and Fulmination at the same time.
  • A PSA was posted shortly after Baro arrived with his latest wares (Primed Fulmination & Primed Firestorm). Primed mods have been a feature of Warframe for several years, and it's our long standing policy that you can't have both the Primed and ordinary version of the same mod equipped at the same time (as is the case with both Firestorm mods).
• Fixed crash when interacting with the crystal to begin the Nihil boss fight.
• Fixed a crash that could occur if you skip the Tutorial cinematic.
• Fixed a rare crash that could occur when using the Orvius as a Client.
• Fixed Pause Menu not working if you died/were downed while using Transference.
• Fixed Ayatan Amber Stars dropping far less frequently than before Deimos Arcana.
• Fixed an issue where binding "Player List" to D-Pad would override its functionality when navigating menus with a controller.
• Fixed rare issues with inability to Trade a Riven with the +30 Riven Mod Slots from Mastery Rank 30.
• Fixed an issue where the whole screen would be black if you quickly skipped the fly-in cinematic during the Heart of Deimos Quest (may have affected other scenarios in which you load into the Cambion Drift as well).
• Fixed players not being able to join your Public mission if you’re waiting on the Navigation Star Chart for players to join your squad on either Cambion Drift or Orb Vallis nodes.
• Fixed losing full Chat functionality after defeating Nihil.
• Fixed inability to use/cancel any abilities or use Operator after casting Revenant’s Danse Macabre and getting knocked down or attempting to ledge grab during its animation.
• Fixed using Nekros’ Soul Punch to ‘mark’ a victim and then killing them with a weapon not raising them as a Shadow for Clients.
• Fixed End of Mission screen showing Affinity gained for your equipped Necramech’s special weapon when you didn’t use it during the mission (no Affinity was actually gained).
• Fixed cases where Mining nodes could be inaccessible in Cambion Drift due to spawning inside the environment.
• Fixed inability to Chat Link Kitgun weapons made with the new Infested chambers Vermisplicer and Sporelacer.
• Fixed Catabolyst not showing a TRIGGER TYPE in Arsenal stats.
• Fixed Health bars displaying incorrect Health amount after the Host leaves the squad in a Free Roam mission.
• Fixed an issue where if the Deimos Therid died while holding another enemy to throw, the enemy's ragdoll would be severed into two and look visually corrupted.
• Fixed broken Archwing strafing animations.
• Fixed Speech volume slider not resetting to 100 when default is pressed if the Transmission Volume slider is at 100.
• Fixed Inaros Prime Chat link screen including the Blueprint button.
• Fixed Tyl Regor’s axe appearing all black.
• Fixed some laser beams (in the Void, Ropalolyst, etc) not making any sounds.
• Fixed large fleshy walls rendering incorrectly on top of the sky in Cambion Drift.
• Fixed excessive bloom on Ammo drops in Cambion Drift.

• Fixed a script error related to the rare item/resource UI pop up.

Hotfix 29.5.6

December 1st, 2020 Forum Post

BONEWIDOW ABILITY CHANGES:

Bonewidow has had a bit of an iterative release - there’s all the changes we made post-test cluster weekend, some pretty nasty bug fixes, and now, another big round of changes. Feedback regarding Bonewidow’s abilities have brought forth the upcoming Ability overhaul changes you see below! We appreciate all the suggestions on our second Necramech thus far, take a look at the new changes:

MEATHOOK: An important raised issue with Bonewidow is being unable to regenerate Health, as Bonewidow is geared towards the more “tankier” focused Necramech in comparison to Voidrig. This change to Meathook aims to tackle that head on.

• Held enemies will lose Health over time, the Health lost will be transferred into Bonewidow. Held enemies will also have Damage Over Time applied to them.
  • Drain speed and % of Health transferred can be upgradable.
• Improved Meathook grab to feel sharper and more consistent.
  • We found that the animation was sliding forward before the grab trigger was enabled, so if the AI was close, you would slide past before the grab would ever engage.

SHIELD MAIDEN:

• Damage Reflection added to the shield, incoming blocked damage will be reflected back at the target.
  • Damage Reflection can be upgraded with level and Strength Mods.
• Meleeing with Shield Maiden will give you access to the Shield Bash you get while using Exalted Ironbride.

FIRING LINE: Firing Line needs to work as a better set up to let Exalted Ironbride shred enemies, and we’ve ensured it’s casting leads to better set up opportunities with these changes:

• Added the Lifted Status to enemies hit for 5 seconds (upgradeable by Mods).
• 1.5x Damage multiplier on Lifted enemies.

EXALTED IRONBRIDE:

• Radial ragdoll added to 3rd melee strike with the ability to Critical hit - but not full knock back as to keep enemies contained within striking distance.
• Exalted Ironbride now has a slight aim assist that will help prevent over swing.

Shield Bash The Shield Bash has been expanded to work whenever you have a Shield equipped, not just when you have a Sword and Shield!

• • Gun/Shield: The melee 'E' Key
  • Sword/Shield: The left mouse button
• Added Lift Status to Shield Bash.

General:

• Truncated Bonewidow jump Melee strikes by 1 second to improve responsiveness.

Changes:

• Improved support for unusual Dx12 video drivers that don't support any full-screen video modes.
• Altered dialog timing in the Toxicity (2nd) stage of the Isolation Vault for better pacing of Loid/Otak dialog. Also tuned escalation timing slightly to delay arrival of higher tier enemies.
• The 'Hint Transmission' audio toggle now applies to Glass Fissure Transmissions.
• Rebalanced Necramech Efficiency Mods so that they do not stack over 100%. This applies to both the Necramech Drift Mod and Necramech Efficiency Mod. Necramech Drift max rank is now 60% Hover Efficiency and Necramech Efficiency max rank is now 30% Engine Efficiency (as it boosts all stats). Combined you receive a maximum efficiency of 90%.
  • Necramech Efficiency Mods boost the efficiency of all Stamina-affecting maneuvers to 60% at max rank, which leaves little room to expand with other Mods. When combined with Hover Efficiency (Necramech Drift) which already caps out at a problematic 125% efficiency, we get some really undesired values. We missed the mark on balancing these before they were pushed out the door, which is our mistake.
• Increased the Standing Rank font size of Standing Rank up from 18 to 19 to make standard and hopefully fix occasionally displaying a blank square instead of a number.
• Improved the Railjack Inventory Slot flow for more exposure and overall clarity:
  • Changed Wreckage Capacity count to use an icon instead of text + scrap button: hover to see text and click to open scrap window.
    • 
  • Added an additional button for combined Components and Armaments (constructed Wreckage) to show Components & Armaments Capacity and allow you to Scrap multiple at the same time using the dedicated Scrap window.
• Adjusted reverb sound settings to the Color Key Captura Scene to better fit the level.

Fixes:

• Fixed a crash that could occur in DirectX 12 on multi-core systems in levels with snow that could leave tracks.
• Fixed potential crash due to memory corruption if you had the game minimized while it was loading a new level and then alt-tabbed back into fullscreen mode.
• Fixed Scintillant sound not being replicated for Clients, resulting in Clients not seeing Scintillant and thus inability to obtain it.
• Fixed an issue when using the same Arc-gun in Heavy Weapon slot and Necramech gun slot, where Affinity earned before first summoning your Necramech wouldn't apply to the Necramech's version of the Arc-gun.
• Fixed (again) UI becoming unresponsive when holding down a key while using Fast Travel/Decoration mode in the Dojo.
• Fixed activating Aerial Ace while using Chroma resulting in his Passive extra jump being removed and causing the dragon wings to show on double jump instead.
• Fixed recasting Xaku’s Grasp of Lohk with no targets nearby resulting in all guns to be lost.
• Fixed Nekros Soulpunching an enemy to raise them as Shadow not respecting modified Shield of Shadows power strength if that enemy is your first Shadow.
• Fixed Nekros Soulpunching a victim to death not raising the victim as a Shadow for Clients.
  • Known issue: using Soulpunch to ‘mark’ a victim and then killing them with a weapon will not raise them as a Shadow for Clients
• Fixed Residual Arcane zone damage numbers not showing up for Clients.
• Fixed Bonewidow’s Meathook grabbing Dargyns.
• Fixed force feedback not working properly with beam Kitguns.
• Fixed Infested Research Bounty Fluid Sac throw objective text being erroneously replicated when the Host holds the sac.
• Fixed End of Mission Medals not showing in the Last Mission Results UI screen.
• Fixed seeing a grey box in the Market if viewing an item you already own after just logging in.
• Fixed a script error when attempting to use the Railjack Pilot context action during a level transition.
• Fixed a script error when an Excavation encounter starts in the Cambion Drift.

The DirectX 12 driver should look graphically alike to the standard DirectX 11 driver, but the new driver exposes several optimizations we can use in the future. Even though Warframe’s DirectX 12 support is still in beta, you should notice slightly faster rendering on most graphics cards and faster rendering on multi-core systems!

Please keep in mind that several optimizations are still in the works. For example, the new driver does not yet support the shader cache that’s automatic in DirectX 11 drivers. This difference means that as you play, the DirectX 12 driver must convert shaders from a generic format to versions optimized for your specific model of graphics card. Depending on your system, this process could appear as micro-stutters the first time a shader is needed. Other games work around this process by forcing massive shader compiles in their launchers. We hope to avoid that as we work on a different solution.

We also hope to hammer out some bugs during our initial beta test of the DirectX 12 driver. To that end, we’re keenly interested in having crashes reported if they only occur in the new driver. If you can reproduce a crash consistently in the DirectX12 driver but can’t reproduce the same crash in DirectX 11, please report the WAR-# in this thread. Learn more about reporting crashes here.

We’re also interested in knowing what looks different with DirectX 12 enabled. Differences likely signal a bug, so if you find one, please send F6 screenshots to Support. Learn more about capturing screenshots here.

How to Participate:

Simply enable DX12 in your launcher settings!

Necramech Changes & Fixes:

• 3 Polarity slots, Vazarin/Vazarin/Madurai, have been added to Bonewidow. This was an oversight on our part, and should have come with Bonewidow on launch, similar to Voidrig.
  • If you've already Polarized those slots, we'll move your chosen Polarity to a Universal slot. IF you've Polarized all 9 slots you’ll be given a Forma.
• Necramech summoning is now more forgiving on the Cambion Drift. You should experience less ‘Invalid Launch Point’ on slopes, inclines, etc.
• Bonewidow's Meathook ability will no longer skewer Deimos Carnis and Deimos Saxum due to breaking throwing functionality and overall wonkiness.
• Enemy Voidrig Necramech Storm Shroud ability no longer provides immunity, but instead provides damage reduction for the duration of the buff.
• Fixed a crash when joining a mission where a squadmate was casting Voidrig’s Necraweb ability.
• Fixed a crash during an Isolation Bounty when fighting Bonewidow who casts Firing Line.
• Fixed inability to use Bonewidow’s Exalted Ironbride after melee attacking during the equip animation.
• Fixed Bonewidow’s Exalted Ironbride becoming invisible after Transferring in and out of Bonewidow.
• Fixed deactivating Bonewidow’s Exalted Ironbride while Shield Maiden blocking resulting in your active weapon to display as "Pugil", and you will still be holding the Ironbride in your hand. This prevents you from both firing your gun and shield bashing until you release your block and allow the de-equip animation to play.
• Fixed inability to summon a Necramech on shallow Cambion Drift Exocrine.
  • This also allows you to summon a Necramech along the shorelines of lakes in Plains of Eidolon and Orb Vallis!
• Fixed ability to move around other players Vacuumed items by the Necramech. Your Vacuum should only affect pickups for yourself.
• Fixed Necramech’s not displaying when searched in the Inventory screen.
• Fixed numerous script errors when casting Necramech abilities.

Cambion Drift Excavation Changes & Fixes:

• Endless Excavation now requires fewer Excavators to be cleared in the Endless Bounty variant for a full squad (from 5 to 3). This makes each round a little quicker and allows for enemy escalation to increase a little faster.
• Added 5s invulnerability period to Excavators when deployed.
• Increased time between Excavator deployments from 3 to 5s and added an extra 3s on the first Excavator to give players more time to prepare for the encounter.
• Fixed reward banners for Endless Bounties not showing the correct bonus icon for previous stages.
• Fixed some bad Excavator placements in the Cambion Drift.
• Fixed Excavation arrival transmission not playing.

Glaive Changes & Fixes:

• Alt fire will now also Heavy Attack the Glaive in Glaive+Gun mode. The original design intent was to reserve Alt Fire for the Secondary weapon, but a scenario where Secondary Alt Fire is needed while Glaive is in flight over Heavy Attack is extremely low. Bringing parity to Heavy Attack input in Dual Wield and Melee Equipped modes is far more important. Thank you so much for all the excellent feedback!
• Alt Fire will Heavy Attack at any point during a Glaive's flight. Before, when a Glaive auto recalled after reaching its distance limit, it could not be detonated during its return.
• Fixed Glaives sometimes orbiting around you after recall. As reported here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Warframe/comments/k00a5e/return_of_glaive_orbit/
• Fixed cases of consecutive Glaive throws failing.

Changes:

• Bounty objectives (on all Free Roam missions) are now enabled 5 seconds after the Bounty vote concludes, allowing players to reach the encounter area and start the objective before all the preamble transmissions complete. The arrival objective transmission will interrupt the preamble if the objective is started before the preamble completes.
• Updated the Baurahn Prime Ephemera so the dragon bodies will take the Accent tint color, giving you further customization options.
• You’ll now be placed just outside the Necralisk gate upon loading into the Cambion Drift from the Star Chart. We found that due to spawning so far away from the Necralisk was resulting in an inability to join Cambion Drift sessions from the Star chart.
• Nora's volume slider will now also affect the transmission in / out sound.
• Stalker and Acolytes have been given the fancy “boss Health bar” treatment!
• Updated tooltip message for Energy while in Arsenal to read "Used to cast Abilities" instead of "Used to cast Warframe Abilities."

Deimos Delicacies Bounty Fixes:

• Fixed Deimos Delicacies Bounty crashing after a Host migration during the Dig Up Fungal Polyps phase.
• Fixed Deimos Delicacies Bounty crashing after a Host migration during the Polyp-Hog Juggernaut death animation.
• Fixed progression stopper in the Deimos Delicacies Bounty where the Polyp-Hog Juggernaut would stop at a Fungal Polyps spot but not dig it up.
• Fixed a potential edge case progression stopper where the Polyp-Hog Juggernaut stops if you’re out of range or dead when the Polyp-Hog Juggernaut got into the Fungal Polyps radius.
• Fixed the Polyp-Hog Juggernaut waiting 15 seconds between arriving at the Fungal Polyps and the action being enabled.

Fixes:

• Fixed some crashes that could occur during a Gas City Sabotage mission.
• Fixed a crash related to a Host migration occurring during a Pit Monster encounter.
• Fixed Arlo’s Flame not casting light when carried in the Zealoid Prelate boss fight on Deimos.
• Fixed Naramon’s Disorienting Blast permanently breaking pathing of Disruption Demolyst / Demolishers.
• Fixed Nidus’ Virulence not benefiting from Volatile Maggot / Strain Maggots.

• Fixed rare cases where underground chambers were protruding through the Cambion Drift landscape.
• Fixed the Ranulyst Syandana clipping through numerous Warframes.
• Fixed Foundry Blueprints that require a Lens as a component having the Lens icon appear squished.
• Fixed Nihil's Oubliette appearing through the Orbiter walls.
• Fixed pulling out your Pistol after hotkeying the Scanner while in your Orbiter.
• Fixed a bug where you could hear some vehicle sounds while in the Arsenal.
• Fixed ‘[PH] Mod Combo Count Chance’ appearing for Garuda’s Blending Talons Augment.
• Fixed a script error related to saving Solaris United Agents in Orb Vallis.
• Fixed a script error when Vor spawns in the Void.
• Fixed a script error that could occur when playing a Hive mission.

November 23rd, 2020 Forum Post

Conservation Changes:

• Increased chance of rarer Nexifera:
  • Common ~67%->56%
  • Uncommon ~23%->28%
  • Rare 10%->17%
    • Only one Nexifera spawns at a time, and because they don't have Vome/Fass restrictions like some of the other animal variants this effectively diluted the table if you were hunting for a specific one. This will provide a bit more variety!
• A Son Transmission will now play when you fail to mimic an animal with your Echo Lure.

Infested Research Bounty Changes:

The Bonus condition of ‘Collect no more than 3 fluid sacs’ had the most common feedback of being too difficult when trying to reach 25 and 30 marked enemy kills using just 3 Fluid Sacs. We’ve made some changes to ease the general Bounty flow and also provide an improved opportunity to achieve the Bonus condition:

• Increased Fluid Sac splash radius increased to 16m.
• Increased enemy reinforcement density while holding a Fluid Sac.
• Reduced delay between reinforcements to 1s while holding a Fluid Sac for overall faster enemy spawning.

Changes:

• Separated Kitguns from the Primary/Secondary weapons in the Mastery breakdown into its own category.
  • Kitguns moved from Secondary to Primary in Mastery breakdown in Deimos: Arcana -- since this might cause some confusion we decided to just have Kitgun Weapons in the Mastery breakdown. This also makes it clear you don't double dip!
• Removed self damage from Orvius charged projectile.
• Deconstructor can no longer equip Volatile Quick Return and Volatile Rebound.
  • Deconstructor projectiles do not have any explosive properties so the Mods did nothing.
• Glaive meleeing will cancel Athodai's "secondary fire beam" in Dual Wield mode now.
• Changed Volatile Quick Return +100% Blast Radius to +3 Blast Radius
  • Multiplicative radius increase was increasing Glaives with a high base radius to higher than intended ranges.
• Changed the default Necramech ramming and hovering controller bindings to crouch for ramming, and aim for hovering.
  • Player feedback provided insight that pressing and holding hover with the controller removed the ability to aim with the right stick. This issue made air combat difficult on controllers and restricted Necramech gameplay to be on the ground. Please let us know how this change feels!

Fixes:

• Fixed the actual base Blueprint for the new Arum Spinosa and Sporothrix not being in Rotation A of Deimos: Arcana Bounties. Arum Spinosa Blueprint is now in Rotation A at 18%, with Sporothrix Blueprint in Rotation A at 21%.
• Fixed the final mission on The Deadlock Protocol Quest not being completable (the boss fight with Protea).
• Fixed Isolation Vaults not being replayable from Mother after returning to the Necralisk.
• Fixed numerous issues with the Cracks in Deimos Isolation Vault Bounty.
• Fixed a potential crash with Clients playing as Grendel.
• Fixed a crash related to Drones.
• Fixed UI becoming unresponsive when holding down a key while using Fast Travel/Decoration mode in the Dojo.
• Fixed Morgha primary fire consuming more ammo than intended when used with Archwing.
• Fixed Polyp-Hog Juggernaut sometimes playing its dig animation in the wrong area.
• Fixed various issues with enemy navigation not working on the Grineer Galleon.
• Fixed Mire melee input becoming unresponsive.
• Fixed Bonewidow’s Exalted Ironbride behaving poorly on Clients (i.e not appearing).
• Fixed stability issues and crashing during the Cracks in Deimos Bounty.
• Fixed an issue with the Cracks in Deimos Bounty not always progressing.
• Fixed an issue with the Subsume action on the Helminth sometimes losing player input.
• Fixed inability to equip Scrawls on the Infested K-Drive.
• Fixed Mission Mastery breakdown not displaying when viewing somebody's Profile.
• Fixed in-game News Console clipping with text.
• Fixed [HC] line when picking up the Fluid Sac in the Infested Research Bounty.
• Fixed text filepath showing for Medals.

November 19th, 2020 Forum Post - Deimos Arcana

Since the initial Heart of Deimos release, you’ve delved into the putrid hills and caverns of the Cambion Drift and found a familiar place with the Entrati. As Deimos continues to fester within the Origin System, its insides twist and turn to expose new growth and life!

In this update, Deimos: Arcana uproots newly unearthed Isolation Vaults in The Underground of the Cambion Drift. The new Necramech, Bonewidow, with sword wielding weaponry awaits you in these unexplored rancid tunnels.

Prepare your Tranq Rifle and aim strong, the Undazoa and Nexifera have been spotted occupying the rotting landscape of the Cambion Drift. Remember to look both ways before crossing the Exocrine; the new Deimos Mitosid can attack at any angle!

Arm yourself with a slew of Infested weapons, build new Infested Kitguns, shatter enemies with the Gara Kaleida Collection, and much more with Deimos: Arcana!

** Please note, Test Cluster specific changes are at the very bottom of the Notes!

NEW DEIMOS ISOLATION VAULT BOUNTIES:

The Cambion Drift Underground you’ve come to recognize swells with new areas to discover.

Mother has 3 new Isolation Vault Bounties to complete! These new Isolation Vault Bounties become available after completing the initial Isolation Vault tier, with the respective Mother then offering the new Vault Bounty. As you unlock these new Vault Bounties, the difficulty will increase to match the prerequisite Isolation Vault and rewards will differ per Bounty.

In addition, 4 new Entrati Vault ruins await you in Isolation Vault Bounties!

General Isolation Vault Changes:

• Removed the Vome/Fass cycle reset on the Isolation Vault Bounties tiers.
  • Oftentimes the Vome/Fass cycle reset during an Isolation Vault Bounty was understandably confusing, for new players especially, and was reported as more of a “bug” than a feature - so we’ve removed its effect on Isolation Vault Bounty tiers! Also, with the addition of the new Isolation Vault Bounties, the time it may take squads/solo players to complete them all could exceed the Vome/Fass cycles.
• Increased the speed of Loid/Otak in the Isolation Vault!
• Reduced Loid/Otak’s base Health by 37.5% to compensate for the speed increase.
  • The slow speed of Loid/Otak was common feedback to be addressed, but increasing the speed made their journey too easy as enemies barely put a scratch into them as they attempted to catch up.
• Changed Otak/Loids defend HUD marker to the standard yellow version to help differentiate between Allies and enemies.
• Adjusted Loid/Otaks path to create a more evenly spaced consistent length path to avoid a long slow return to the Vault when all 4 Generators are activated, or when clusters of Generators are very close together.
• Adjusted Isolation Vault Transmission flow at the very start to speed things up a bit and get into the phases a little faster.
• Scintillants have a chance to respawn in Isolation Vault Bounties.
  • The new Isolation Vault Bounties bring you back through the previously completed Vaults and further into the Underground. Having Scintillant respawn grants another kick at the can even if Scintillant was already found in a Vault.
• Esophages in Isolation Vault Bounties now have a press and hold context action to avoid accidentally interacting, and thus having to go all the way back down to do the Vault Generators.
• Rebalanced enemy Voidrig (and the upcoming Bonewidow) Isolation Vault fights for a more fair experience that embraces the precedent set with Kuva Liches:
  • *Enemy Voidrig & Bonewidow Necramechs now have the ‘Lich’ treatment with vulnerability to Status Effects, meaning you can now apply Status Effects to Necramechs! Additionally, certain damage immunities and diminishing returns for Warframe abilities have been added to balance this out.
    • The damage immunities apply to movement abilities, such as Banshee’s Sonic Boom, to prevent yeeting the Necramech into the sun. The diminishing returns are present to also prevent 1HKOs - on par with Kuva Liches.
  • Increased the cooldown time when the Voidrig (and Bonewidow) cast their invulnerability shield while in their “armless” phase.
    • Necramechs are intended to have shorter cooldowns while missing both arms. The cooldown reduction was too high however and you’d often see Voidrig Necramechs recasting their shield within seconds!
• Added an objective marker to the Bait Device if your Bait throw missed the monster-door.

NEW ISOLATION VAULT ENCOUNTERS:

New Isolation Vault Bounties also have 3 new encounter types within the Bounty!

Deimos Delicacies! Daughter has tasked you to escort/protect a friendly POLYP-HOG JUGGERNAUT that is searching for Fungal Polyps! But we all know what happens when someone bothers us while we’re eating…

Infested Research!

Curious behaviors have been observed of the Infested interacting with the organic fluids in the underground caves. Subvert the fluid extraction device and throw it back at them to collect samples!

Cracks in Deimos!

There is a mysterious mist wafting throughout the area, driving the creatures within mad! Negate the effects of the mist with the Emitter Unit and seal the mist fissures before the creature's attempt to open the fissures.

NEW NECRAMECH - BONEWIDOW:

This fearsome Necramech, fashioned in honor of the Entrati matriarch, is a robust front-line fighter. Favoring armor and health over shield strength, Bonewidow can grab and hurl enemies, deploy a heavy shield for personal defense, and cleave through opposing ranks with a massive warblade.

MEATHOOK

Skewer and hold a target. Use again to hurl the victim damaging them and anyone near the impact site.

SHIELD MAIDEN

Raise Bonewidow’s shield to block incoming forward damage.

FIRING LINE

NEW ENTRATI MEMBER OFFERINGS

Grandmother has a new ‘Mend the Family’ option that allows you to provide Deimos Resources for Tokens of each Entrati member.

• Here with Grandmother, ‘Mend the Family’ gives you another option for those spare Resources, Gems, and Fish Parts to put towards Tokens outside of their usual Entrati member role. For example, use a mix of Resources and Fish parts for Son Tokens! Use a mix of Gems and Resources for Daughter Tokens! Keep checking back to see how you can Mend the Family.

Loid (or perhaps Otak..) are tooting their own horn with the Loid Sentinel Skin - available for Necraloid Standing with Loid! This faithful Necraloid has served the Entrati family for centuries. He now stands ready to offer his service to you. Complete the double-sided look with the Mask, Tail, and Wings.

Loid has come into possession of the Ayatan Kitha Sculpture! Struck to commemorate the Entrati family’s power and prestige, as well as safeguarding their memories of one another. Many things changed in the years that followed, and that which had once shone brightly grew dark and dim. But even a single Ayatan Star may make all the difference.

Son has new Vulpaphyla and Predasite Precept Mods available for Entrati Standing!

Vulpaphyla

• Martyr Symbiosis: Drains and stores 20 Health from corpses within 25m up to 20% of their Master’s Health. Sacrifices itself to heal their Master if they fall below 10% Health.

Predasite

• Maggot Summoner: Maggot Summoner: In combat, spit up a maggot every 15s. The maggot latches onto the nearest enemy and provokes other enemies within 40m to attack them. It then explodes dealing 400 Viral Damage within 10m.

DEIMOS QUALITY OF LIFE CHANGES:

Tenno have spent a lot of time with the Entrati family, and have shared valuable insights on how to improve their systems! Deimos Arcana brings many sought after quality-of-life improvements:

• Vome/Fass time indicators now appear when viewing the map inside the Necralisk hub!
  • Cetus and Fortuna have been given the same treatment.
  • 
• The mining drop rate of Thaumica has been doubled! We’ve also Reduced the chance of getting Namalon while Mining in the Cambion Drift so that the chance of getting Thaumica is significantly increased.
  • Both Necrathene and Thaumica were similarly rare, but Thaumic Distillate is used in a wider variety of Blueprints, so expect to see it appear more often from yellow mineral deposits.
• Son’s Conservation tasks have been made more rewarding and accessible! There are two main factors to this change:
  • Higher quality Conservation captures will now provide better rewards, as they do in our other Free Roam landscapes. Scoring a “Good” capture will now provide 2 animal capture Tags instead of 1, and “Perfect” captures will award 3 Tags!
  • Son’s Token exchange has been reorganized, based on player inventory statistics. Smaller offerings will require more commonly found creatures, and larger offerings with more Tokens will require creatures that are harder to come by.
• Necramechs will now increase max level by 2 for each Forma applied, up to Rank 40!
  • With twelve Mod slots to fill, borrowing the Polarity mechanics introduced with the Paracesis made perfect sense. This change also prompted a discussion to address the mission restrictions with Necramech leveling (Free Roam only). As a result, we’ve increased the Shared Affinity Range in Free Roam missions (see below for more details). We still have plans to allow deployable Necramech’s in normal mission modes at a later date - stay tuned!
  • If you have already reached Rank 30 on your Necramech prior to this update, you will retain the full Mastery Points for it. You are still free to level it to Rank 40 to unlock further Mod slots!
• Enabled Shield-Gating for summoned Necramechs! You’ll now experience the brief invulnerability period when your Necramech Shield breaks.
• Universal Medallions can now be traded in the Necralisk at Grandmother for Entrati Standing and Loid for Necraloid Standing.
• The Latrox Une Bounty mission has received a balance pass to address both the length this mission takes and the Bonus being too challenging compared to others:
  • Doubled the Drone Shields Health.
  • The Drone Shield now regenerates after being emptied.
  • Samples now drop at a faster rate.
  • Less samples are required to complete the mission.

FREE ROAM SHARED AFFINITY CHANGE:

We’ve increased the Shared Affinity Range in Free Roam missions from 50 meters to 250 meters! When implementing the change to make Necramech’s level up to 40, it prompted the conversation of Necramech leveling and its restriction to Free Roam missions. With the addition of Bonewidow, it felt appropriate to dial the Shared Affinity Range up for these much larger tilesets. While it’s always ideal to stick together, we hope the 250 meter range allows you to both level up your Necramech faster and venture a bit farther in the landscape.

FISHING & CONSERVATION:

Undazoa and Nexifera now prowl across Deimos. Help Son study these new species of Infested wildlife!

UNDAZOA

These peculiar creatures inhabit the exocrine, consuming contaminants and depositing their eggs. They will not instigate an attack, but if you provoke an Undazoa, be wary of each variant’s unique defense.

*Acquire the Undazoa Echo-Lure and Pheromone Gland from Son’s Offerings!

NEXIFERA

These heavy creatures occupy caves, poised to drop from the ceiling onto unassuming victims. Each variant’s landing has a unique effect. Be quick if you hope to catch a Nexifera before it ascends! They will burrow into the ceiling to make a quick escape.

*Similar to Velocipods, the Nexifera is an ambient encounter creature you can find out in the Cambion Drift.

The Endocrine are home to 2 new species of Fish! Find the elusive Flagellocanth and Lobotriscid to bring back to Daughter!

FLAGELLOCANTH

These specimens were originally parasites, breeding inside the wyrm-guts of Fass and scattered across Deimos in the debris of his explosive demise. They are drawn to his light. Processed Fass Residue is required to attract the Flagellocanth!

LOBOTRISCID

A muscular, three-tailed fish, the Lobotriscid trawls through Exocrine vapor across the surface of Deimos when Vome is dominant.

FISHING & CONSERVATION CHANGES & FIXES:

• Enabled Imprinting and breeding for Predasites and Vulpaphyla.
  • Mutagens and Antigens are inherited through breeding, allowing pets to stack their benefits.
  • Predasites and Vulpaphyla can only be named when Gilded, so naming after hatching is skipped.
  • Predasites and Vulpaphyla can not be cross bred with non-modular pets.
  • Imprints of Predasites and Vulpaphyla can only be taken when the pet is Gilded.
• Disabled Conservation Tranq and Track during the Heart of Deimos quest.
  • When it was enabled you wouldn't have been able to catch anything or see anything on map, but there was a chance to just happen across a start point.
• Companion Predasites and Vulpaphylas now have their own description, seperate from the wild ones in the Cambion Drift.
• Improvements to trails to address some of the more drastic upwards jumps required to follow the path.
• Made a bunch of updates to Lure sounds and mix effects. Added more variations to scat burst sound (yum). Also made adjustments to transmission timing.
• Increased number of Avichea spawned at Call Points from 1 to 2-4 and improved spawn position.
• Increased the number of Cryptilex spawned at Call Points from 1 to 2-4.
• Expanded number of available call points in the Magna, Infested Seraglio, Undulatum, and Albrechts Prospect areas.
• Added height arrow indicators to Conservation markers.
  • This reduces the number of call points that end up in caves. For the ones that do spawn in caves, the height arrow indicator should relieve that confusion.
• Added debuffs to Deimos animals when they’re Wounded by Infested and reduced max Health on wild Predasites and Vulpaphylas so you’re not waiting around for Infested to wound the animals.
• Added Vome/Fass cycle information to Deimos Conservation creatures in the Codex!
• Fixed losing all control functions for a short period of time after throwing a Fishing Spear - most commonly experienced in Cambion Drift.
• Fixed cases of issues with Avichea circling movement used when found ambiently and when they arrived at Call Points that would cause them to float way up into the sky.
• Fixed Cryptilexes missing their Conservation drone pickup animation, which created an animation pop after capturing.
• Fixed Conservation start points not regenerating on Deimos which would prevent certain encounters from spawning.
• Fixed some Conservation call points spawning under the Endocrine.
• Fixed ambient spawns only spawning common fish and ignoring bait (fishing with the Spear out still worked as intended).
• Fixed Fishing after landscape time change not altering obtainable fish.

GENERAL DEIMOS CHANGES:

• *Necramechs (Bonewidow and Voidrig) now have a built-in vacuum!
• Necralisk Fast Travel UI now displays the respective Token for each Entrati member.
• Entrati Tokens you don’t have the required resources for will now appear greyed out in each Entrati member’s Token acquisition menu. Saving you from having to hover and view each Token individually to see if you have the resources needed.
• Added “Mother Tokens” next to the Token icon itself in Mother’s ‘Reward Details’ screen.
  • 
• Added “Requirements Met” category to the Necralisk vendors. Selecting this category will sort wares based on if you have the necessities to purchase it.
• Added “Expiry” and “Tokens” filters to the Necralisk vendors.
  • “Expiry” sorts Tokens by remaining time until they expire. Tokens expiring sooner will be sorted at the top of the list.
  • “Tokens” sorts Tokens by the amount in one purchase. In other words, the higher the number of Tokens in a single purchase the higher it will appear in the list.
• Added more idle Otak lines in the Necralisk when interacting with him.
• Added another race node to the Cambion Drift Abyssal Skim race to lead the player better.
• Increased the Deimos Juggernaut variants Affinity gain to 500.
  • This was done to be more consistent with the Deimos Saxum variants.
• Made slight updates to Son’s skin textures and fixed neck seam issues.
• Made slight revisions to Daughter’s textures to better match her head to her body.
• Enemies in the Cambion Drift will now have a blue energy FX applied to their weapons when Vome is alive and wyrming around.
• Added Deimos Leapers and Deimos Conservation animals to the Codex.
• Made improvements to the enemy pathing in tight underground areas in the Cambion Drift.
• Changed the number of Obelisks that appear in the Cambion Drift from 6 to 5.
  • With the introduction of the newest Bounties, we reviewed Obelisk spawn sites and saw that they were occupying vacant sites that we felt would be better used for new Bounty objectives! These sites were also difficult for enemies to maneuver and access, and they would often get stuck in the Obelisk shards.

NEW INFESTED WEAPONRY:

Your Arsenal is about to get a whole lot more sticky with a slew of new Infested weapons!

CATABOLYST

Splatter enemies with a short-range stream of corrosive bile. Upon reload, toss the ammo bladder as a grenade. The emptier the pistol’s ammo bladder, the more potent its damage.

*Acquire the Blueprint for the Catabolyst from Bio Lab Research in the Dojo!

PROBOSCIS CERNOS

A version of the Mutalist Cernos Bow, each arrow spawns a swarm of sticky appendages on impact. These tongue-like probes latch onto nearby unfortunates and drag them close before bursting into a mess of diseased goo.

*Acquire the Blueprint for the Proboscis Cernos from the Market.

PULMONARS

Take-hold of the malignant evolution of an ancient martial weapon with these Infested nunchaku. Pummel and infect with these two pulsating hunks of flesh connected by a ligament.

GLAIVES REVISITED:

Many of these changes focus on enhancing the unique gameplay options that a Glaive can offer. We’ll start simple with throwing mechanics, and work our way up:

Heavy Attack (aka Glaive detonation) will now do more damage, more consistently! Damage numbers have been increased, and the area-of-effect falloff has been removed, meaning max damage no matter what part of the explosion hits an enemy. This should help encourage use of Glaives’ unique detonation functionality; another option to compliment swinging and throwing the weapon, allowing for massive bursts of damage when needed.

“Hold throw” mechanics now apply in Equipped Melee mode! When we added the ability to wield a Glaive alongside any one-handed secondary, we introduced a new system for throwing Glaives that was quicker and more intuitive. This modern system for both ground and air throwing has been applied to pure melee mode, making Glaives consistent no matter how they are used.

In “Glaive + Gun” mode, players must use the melee key to detonate the Glaive while in flight. With only the Glaive in hand, the alt fire button is no longer reserved for your secondary weapon, which allows for added flexibility - press alt fire for a Heavy Attack detonation, or tap melee for a simple recall

Glaive throws can now be performed while sliding! Tap to perform a regular spin attack, or hold to throw. An added level of flexibility to the Glaive playstyle.

Throw melee inputs can be “queued up”, one after the other! Also known as “buffering”, this means if you are holding a melee input as the Glaive returns to your hand, you will start charging another throw as soon as possible. With this change, a smooth gameflow emerges: throw a Glaive, hold melee as it returns, catch, release, repeat.

Glaives can now be thrown multiple times in a single jump! Limitations to this type of throw have been removed to allow more chained throws.

With all of these improvements, Glaive throwing and detonating should become a more prominent and viable way to use these weapons. But we’re only getting started!

Another feature that makes Glaives stand out from other melee weapons, is their ability to be wielded alongside a one-handed secondary. This “Glaive + Gun” mode is also getting a couple upgrades:

Melee stance combos are now available in Glaive + Gun mode! Using a weapon combo will no longer restrict your melee options and movement, making Glaives even more deadly.

Glaive + Gun mode now utilizes melee auto blocking when not aiming or firing! This feature introduced in recent melee system updates will now also apply to the weapon combo mode, offering the benefits of actively equipped melee while still keeping your secondary at the ready.

With all these changes combined, we hope Glaive gameplay will feel more fluid, fun and unique. To encourage exploration of these new mechanics, we are also making changes to Glaive Modding options, improving old Mods and introducing new choices for players to try!

Glaive Mod Power Throw has been given respective buffs:

• Increased Punch Through from 0.6 to 2m.
  • +2m Punch Through. On Consecutive Throw: +100% Throw Damage (up to maximum 3 stacks)
• Added 60% projectile speed.

This Mod will now be great for players who embrace the “catch and release” playstyle introduced by the changes to melee input queueing.

We also have two new Mods to help modify your playstyle even further…

Volatile Rebound: 100% Chance to explode on Bounce (Disables Punch Through).

Reveal hidden contents

Volatile Quick Return: -4 Bounce. +100% Blast Radius. 100% chance to explode on Bounce (disables Punch Through).

Reveal hidden contents

Unlike a Heavy Attack, the explosions from these Mods do NOT consume your combo counter. Equip Volatile Rebound to inflict as much chaos as possible from a single throw, or Volatile Quick Return for rapid targeted strikes.

*Find the Volatile Rebound and Volatile Quick Return Mods from Cambion Drift Deimos enemies!

Below are some specific changes per weapon from the above changes:

Cerata

• Added guaranteed Toxin proc on Heavy Attack Detonation.
• Increased Critical Damage from 2.2 to 2.3x of throw.

• Removed ‘Damage’ value from Heavy Attack since this value is no longer used.
• ‘Radial Attack’ has been renamed to ‘Bounce Attack’.
  • This stat is only shown when the weapon is equipped with a mod that has the chance to explode on bounce qualifier (ie. the new Glaive mods Volatile Rebound and Volatile Quick Return!)
• Added a stat for % chance to explode on bounce.
• Added ‘Heavy Radial Attack’ stat to both Throw and Charge Throw categories.

XAKU ROUND 2 CHANGES & FIXES:

We’ve been keeping tabs on the usual feedback channels to read and review your takes on Xaku in their updated form. We have been pleased to see that generally these changes have been enjoyed thus far, and that we’ve taken a step in the right direction. But as many have expressed, and to which we have found ourselves agreeing, our work is not done yet on this Community Warframe!

So here we are with a second round of changes based on the most standout and widely discussed points we saw strewn across the feedback hubs. Whether it's iterating on Round 1 or offering new insight on Xaku’s abilities, we thank you for sharing!

General Changes:

• Xaku's "The Lost" ability description will now include descriptions of "Accuse", "Deny", and "Gaze" within it.
  

Xata’s Whisper (Void Status Effect):

• Void damage’s Status Effect will now redirect projectiles to the body part it proc’d on.
  • How it will work: If you shoot at an enemy’s head with Xata’s Whisper enabled and proc, the bubble will redirect all projectiles to the head. If you shoot at the feet, it’ll be redirected to the feet, etc.! It is however possible that even if you proc on the head but then shoot at the lower part of the bubble it might hit the body on the way up to being redirected to the head.
  • This is a game wide change to Void Status Effect! Now that we have a Warframe that can harness Void damage at the click of a button, it has brought much focus to and discussion around its Status Effect. For those of you who are unfamiliar, in its current state it creates a bullet attractor bubble that directs all projectiles to the center of the enemy’s torso regardless of where it procs. Since Xata’s Whisper applies Void damage to all of their weapons, it was increasingly noticeable to Xaku players that the bubble’s current redirecting position prevents any attempt at enemy headshots until its duration expires. This is one of the main reasons for this change. Headshot disruption ultimately limits your damage output by removing the opportunity for headshot multipliers while it is active. Now, you will be able to use your headshotting skills to greater benefit, while also having generally more options to focus projectiles where desired. Note that regardless of where the Status Effect occurs, it will continue to prevent enemies from being able to shoot at you without having their projectiles redirected back to the center of the bubble.

Grasp of Lohk:

• Re-casting will now steal weapons up to the max number of affected targets.
  • How it will work: You will be able to re-cast up to the max number of targets that you can steal from. In other words, you can add to the current batch of weapons. For example, if your max target is set to 6, and you have 3 weapons active, Grasp of Lohk can be re-cast to “top up” to the remaining 3 weapon allowance. Newly grabbed weapons from re-casts will have independent durations from the previous batch - similar to Protea’s Blaze Artillery.
  • We made re-casting available in Round 1 and set it up to replace the entire current active batch of weapons. Our original reasoning was that this allowed for a ‘fresh’ cast to be made if an undesirable pull occurred. But what makes far more sense is to follow the precedent set by Nekros’ Shadows of the Dead. So now you can maintain your current floating auto-cannon sidekicks and re-cast to refill or top up to the max on command. This will give far more control in maintaining the max number of active weapons you can have at once.
    
• Added HUD tracker for active weapons.
  • Following our re-cast change, we thought it would be quite helpful to know exactly how many weapons you have active so that you know how many more you can add on re-cast. Instead of counting them manually one by one as they float and shoot around, this is much easier on the eyes!
    
  • 
• Stolen weapons will no longer target invulnerable enemies.
  • Currently, Grasp of Lohk weapons will target enemies with grey health bars indicating that they are invulnerable. This clearly serves no purpose as their health cannot be damaged and ultimately takes focus away from more important targets. Not to mention that this is a poor use of the ability’s duration drain. As a result, we’ve removed invulnerable enemies as target candidates and stolen weapons will now redirect to vulnerable enemies within range.

• Grasp of Lohk weapons will visually darken when near the end of their lifespan.
  • Although the ability bar does count down the lifespan once cast, this visual change offers another way to determine when your Grasp of Lohk needs to be recast as opposed to waiting until the ability expires completely, or having to watch/recheck the ability bar.

• Note on Grasp of Lohk’s ‘Target Range’:
  • In Round 1, we made the distinction between Grasp of Lohk’s ‘Grab Range’ and ‘Target Range’. We then increased its ‘Grab Range’ and left ‘Target Range’ untouched due to “firing range experiments being a bit too wild for Round 1”. As we’ve continued testing, this has held true. In any instance where we’ve increased it, even slightly, we neared a state that we had already established was undesirable due to its encouragement of an ‘inactive’ way of playing (Ember’s “World on Fire” comes to mind before it was changed to “Inferno”). As a result, ‘Target Range’ will continue to remain untouched for this round.

The Lost: Accuse

• We are following through with our proposed idea from Round 1 and have made Accuse re-castable!
  • How it will work: The same way Grasp of Lohk will be set up in Round 2! You will be able to re-cast up to the max number of targets that can be affected/corrupted. For example, if your max target is set to 10, and you have 5 active, Accuse can be re-cast to “top up” to the remaining 5 corrupted crew allowance. Enemies corrupted from re-cast will have independent durations from the previous batch.
  • Currently, Accuse cannot be re-cast until the duration expires or all affected enemies are killed. Which means that often you find yourself locked into a corrupted crew that is inefficient due to dwindling numbers, poor initial cast, etc. For those reasons and more, this was a highly requested change that we are happy to make happen!
    
• Added HUD tracker for active "Accused" enemies
  • This'll look familiar because we added this for Grasp of Lohk and explained above, but just so that we have intent clear here with Accuse as well! We thought it would be quite helpful to know exactly how many "Accused" enemies you have active so that you know how many more you can add on re-cast. Instead of counting them manually one by one as they run around, this is much easier on the eyes!
    
  • 

The Lost: Gaze

• Increased base radius from 8m to 12m.
  • Increasing the base radius range on “Gazed” enemies was highly requested since its defense reduction applies to enemies while they are within the affected area. As we noted in Round 1, we evaluated Gaze and how it performs with established builds that maximized its effects. Increasing the base radius range hits the spot between improving the ability’s effectiveness and managing what is already established as powerful with focused builds. Essentially, more space for more enemies to have their defenses stripped without tipping the scales dramatically on is an already well performing ability when used strategically.

The Lost: Deny

• Increased Deny’s beam width and base range (25m to 40m).
  • Straightforward change to help you target and damage more enemies. More bang for your beam!
    
• Deny can now be cast while moving.
  • Currently, Deny’s casting animation locks Xaku in place. While we did increase the casting speed in Round 1, it just simply was not enough to fulfill the parkour freedom you’ve become well familiar with in Warframe. Removing the lock brings back the ninja fantasy while also making the most of the synergy between Deny and Grasp of Lohk that we added in Round 1. As we said in our first Xaku Dev Workshop, “more firepower… faster”, but this time we really mean it!

Fixes:

• Fixed Xaku’s Xata’s Whisper sometimers not applying its damage buff or Void Status Effect when using the Komorex.
• Fixed Xaku’s Xata’s Whisper not using the intended Status Chance for projectile weapons.
• Fixed the HUD timer icon for Xata’s Whisper in the top right corner ticking down regardless of The Vast Untime being active. This was only a visual bug, and did not actually affect the ‘time freezing’ synergy with The Vast Untime and Xaku’s other abilities.
• Fixed Xaku’s skin not being properly localized.
• Fixed Xaku missing their head and armor when viewed in the Mods Tutorial screens.
• Fixed camera obstruction and misaligned aiming if Xaku’s Grasp creates a Shedu armament.

THE STEEL PATH: ACOLYTES JOIN THE BATTLE & MORE!

The Steel Path provides Tenno with two things: a more difficult journey on the Star Chart, and a new economy with Steel Essence to get some gear.

We have decided to revisit the Steel Essence acquisition because at present time, people feel forced to play extremely long macro-based runs to optimize their runs. We would rather try something else.

Introducing: Acolyte Minibosses & Steel Path Incursions (Daily Alerts)!

• Every day, five Steel Path missions will be chosen randomly, and completing them will award 3 Steel Essence per Incursion. Furthermore, this will unlock the node, even if you have not reached that part of the Steel Path yet! This should help improve the matchmaking situation, among other things.
  • NOTE: Steel Path Incursions will appear in the Alert section of the World State Window when you are set to Steel Path mode.
• As you play in any Steel Path mission, Acolytes will spawn and attack - defeating the Acolyte grants a guaranteed drop of 2 Steel Essence. Beware! If you get downed by an Acolyte, they’ll escape and you won’t receive any Steel Essence!
  • *The Steel Path Acolytes now have the same Status treatment that Liches received earlier this year.
  • *Reduced the Melee attack damage on both Misery and Malice to avoid the more reported 1HKOs.
• In essence (ha), there is virtually no RNG with Steel Essence anymore. Daily Incursions guarantee 3 per Alert, and Acolytes will always appear in regular missions (Endlessly in Endless missions.). The time at which they choose to appear may be a bit random, but if you kill mobs, they will come!
  • Please note, Acolytes won't spawn in Archwing missions on the Steel Path.
• Teshin’s Steel Path Honors will now have a Weekly item for you to purchase! There are 8 items total, meaning that every 8 weeks the store will reset and allow you purchase anew. Look forward to things like an Umbra Forma Blueprint, Shotgun Riven Mod, and more!

Nekros:

• Soul Punch: Instantly kills targets below 25% Health, and turns them into an extra clone shadow (or heals existing if at max).
• *Nekros’ Soul Punch now has a new mechanic: Marked for Harvest. Enemies that are hit by Soul Punch but don’t die have a Duration wherein they’ll be eligible to become a Shadow if killed while Marked!

Nidus:

• Larva: Enemies killed while held have a chance of generating a Mutation stack for Nidus.

Zephyr:

• Air Burst: Damage increases per target hit. Targets with <30% Health become open to Parazon finishers.
• *Air Burst now deals 35% Additional Damage per enemy hit either with the projectile OR the explosion damage.
• *Air Burst now has a 50% chance to deal a Physical Status effect for those hit by this slice of air. It will heavily skew towards Slash!
• Tornado: Slightly better at holding enemies. Tap creates stationary tornadoes, hold creates wandering ones.

NEW ORBITER UPGRADE:

Those Dry Docks have been put to good use, Tenno! With Deimos Arcana, the Orbiter has received a bit of a facelift, as well as a fresh new sheet of glass! The Mod, Relic, and Umbilical Consoles have been given some new animations, a fresh coat of paint, and general appearance improvements. If you own a Railjack, we highly suggest you look up!

• Clicking on a Clan Research Prerequisite will now select that Research, where you can then start researching it immediately.
• Dojo Bell decoration sounds can now be changed by the “Sound Effects Volume” slider in your Options.
• Added the ability to rename Transporter after placing them in your Clan Dojo.
• Disabled Warframe Passives when entering Dojo Obstacle Courses and disabled the several seconds of invulnerability when starting the course.
  • We spoke to Dojo Designers in the community and got their feedback on obstacle courses. These changes come from their point that both of the above give players an unfair advantage. Zephyr’s passive comes to mind. The temporary invulnerability at the start of the course was mirrored from regular missions, but was being used to bypass some traps. Overall, these changes allow Dojo Course designers to really challenge those who attempt their creations and do so fairly.

Fixes:

• Fixed Dojo Decorations with names about 38 characters long getting cut off by the edge of the screen.
• Fixed being unable to shrink several Dojo Decorations after you’ve scaled them up (Natural Vallis Falls for example).
• Fixed large Decorations in constricted movement mode in the Dojo not moving when attempting to do so if it is out of the player’s FOV.
• Fixed an issue with the damage/fail triggers of Trap Dojo obstacle course decorations not scaling when size was changed.
• Fixed PH appearing next to the “Reset Rotation” option when rotating a Dojo Decoration.
• Fixed the Tributa Statue Dojo decoration’s light defaulting to white when you attempt to move it.
• Fixed all Sawgaw Floof variants appearing the same in the Dojo.

NEW COMMUNITY NEWS TAB:

You may notice a new addition to the news console in your freshly updated Orbiter! Now Community news has its own tab and will list everything happening within the Warframe community, such as livestreams, contests, charity drives, or important community news!

SOUND ADDITIONS & CHANGES:

NEW Advanced Reverb:

Advanced Reverb is here in what we are calling its 'Beta' launch! This is an entirely new reverb system that uses a Convolution (Impulse Response) method. What this means is that instead of using an algorithmic (Legacy) reverb for the game, we are able to use real-life spaces instead. We can feed the reverb system a recording of a real reverberant space and it will combine it with the game's sounds. So you will get a more realistic, vibrant, and deep listening experience. We've been busy adjusting the reverb setups across all tiles. So you can now experience this change across the entire game!

We also adjusted how the blending of the reverb works. When you traverse from different areas we need to blend the reverbs (think of a small space to a larger one). We used to do this based on your distance but now we calculate this based on time. This will give you a more accurate feeling of transition.

‘Advanced Reverb’ is turned on by default, you can switch back to ‘Legacy Reverb’ in the Audio Options if you desire.

General Audio Additions and Changes:

• Added two brand new music pieces in Deimos! Time to start choreographing your Infestation hacking and slashing.
• Added separate control in Audio Options for YOUR Mandachord volume.
  • Players have asked for this for a while and now you can control your own Mandachord volume in the game instead of having to adjust the main Sound Effects audio slider. This also includes Subsumed Octavia Resonator.
• Music in all cinematics now respects the Music volume slider in Audio Options.
• Dojo music levels are now adjustable using the “Music Volume” slider under the Audio options.
• All of the Helminth ability sounds have been updated with new custom FX!
  • When the Helminth was released we used existing sound FX in the game as placeholders. Now, Helminth abilities (such as Empower, Master’s Summons, etc.) have their own unique sound to make them stand out from the rest!
• There is now a ‘Nora Night’ audio slider in your Options that you can use to Mute Nora’s in-game transmissions.

OPERATOR AMP CHANGES:

• Reduced the self stagger range of the Shraksun Scaffold, Granmu Prism, Exard Scaffold, Dissic Scaffold and Propa Scaffold.
• Phahd projectile now explodes on every bounce.
• Reduced Phahd explosion damage from 3100 to 1100.

GENERAL ADDITIONS:

  • 
• Added a ‘ONE TIME PURCHASE’ label on items that you can only buy once per week (ie Palladino Riven Sliver).
• Added ground dust FX to all Arc Gun fire.
• Added slightly tweaked Transference FX for both Warframe and Necramech.
• Added new animations and sounds to the Carcinus Speargun Skin. We apologise for shipping this Skin without it’s intended animations, which made the Skin appear static. New animations and sounds include:
  • The Speargun will be collapsed when viewed in the Arsenal, and then expand when changing its colors to provide a more accurate depiction of what it will look like expanded.
  • The Speargun will now collase when holstered and expand when equipping. Additionally the equip sound has changed from the default sound.
  • The gun tip of the Speargun will now animate upon equipping.
  • The circular clips on the gun tip will animate upon firing and when doing a charged shot.
  • Reloading now animates the gun tip with included FX. Additionally the reload sound has changed from the default ‘whoosh’.

GENERAL BUG REPORT MEGATHREAD: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1236078-deimos-arcana-bug-report-megathread-read-first-post/

* Now that you’ve made it to the bottom of the Update notes, each section will have details that match the thread breakout we created for the Public Test Weekend. The headings are:

Kitgun + Weapon + Arcanes

Necramech + Bounties

Warframe Changes + Augments

The Steel Path + Acolytes

Public Test Weekend #3 Notes:

Kitgun + Weapon + Arcane Changes:

Generally speaking, the major focus this week was split between Weapon tweaks and major Arcane buffs to give another chance at usability. The Arcane readability, numbers, and more have been significantly reviewed and changed for Deimos: Arcana!

Weapon changes:

Bubonico

- Increased accuracy of primary fire

- Increased speed of ammo regen delay from .9 to .5 secs

- Increased ammo regen rate from 6.75 to 16.875

- Increased status chance of alt fire from 53% to 57%

- Decreased primary fire rate from 4.16 to 3.83

Sporothrix

- Increased damage from 363 to 371

- Reduced embed time from 3 to .9 secs

- Increased flight speed from 190 to 270

Proboscis Cernos

- Increased pull strength of the tentacles

- Increased ammo pool from 7 to 9

Catabolyst

- Added base punch through dept of 0.9

- Increased clip size from 19 to 27

- Increased ammo pool from 95 to 135

Pulmonars

- Increased attack speed

Arum Spinosa

- Increased spine damage from 60 to 70

- Increased spine flight speed from 33 to 49

- Increased accuracy of spine throw

Arcanes: Theorem and Residual

The Theorem and Residual Arcanes were the most contested items on the Test Cluster over the weekend. We have made a concerted effort to reset how they work in context (mainly where the AoE spawns) and rebalance. The next steps for us are receiving feedback on the newer flow and newer stats for these upon release!

Notable changes include:

• Residual Arcanes will now leave their AoE at the position of the enemy at the time of death. You will see a ring on the ground (with upgraded FX) that you can enter to begin your Residual/Theorem buffing process. This means you will not need to search for corpses that may have been blown off in the distance -- instead, you should have an easier and faster means of finding these AOE rings.
• Significantly increased the active Duration of your stacks after leaving the AoE (from 5 to 20 seconds).
• Theorem Arcanes now go up to 5 Ranks with Stats to reflect this.

THEOREM INFECTION

Before: Standing in a zone created by a Residual Arcane increases damage of companions and summoned allies within 60m by 4%/s stacking up to 15x. Effect persists for 20s upon leaving the zone.

After: Standing in a zone created by a Residual Arcane increases damage of companions and summoned allies within 90m by 24%/s stacking up to 15x. Effect persists for 20s upon leaving the zone.

THEOREM CONTAGION

Before: Standing in a zone created by a Residual Arcane creates a globe that orbits the player every 2s. The globes will strike the nearest enemy within 5m dealing 100 damage and applying a Status Effect. Globes will persist for 8s upon leaving the zone.

After: Standing in a zone created by a Residual Arcane creates a globe that orbits the player every 2s. The globes will strike the nearest enemy within 15m dealing 150 damage and increasing their vulnerability to the globe’s damage type by 200% for 6s. Globes will persist for 30s upon leaving the zone.

THEOREM DEMULCENT

Before: Standing in a zone created by a Residual Arcane increases weapon damage by 4%/s stacking up to 15x. Effect persists for 5s upon leaving the zone.

After: Standing in a zone created by a Residual Arcane increases weapon damage by 12%/s stacking up to 15x. Effect persists for 20s upon leaving the zone.

OTHER ARCANE CHANGES:

• Theorem Infection increased from +90% to +360% Companion damage at max rank and stacks
• Residual Boils spawns cysts on the ground inside the trigger instead of on the enemy corpse.
• Residual Shock now fires Lighting from a spike instead of the enemy corpse.
  

Warframe Abilities and Augment Changes:

We focused on the most consistently critiqued Warframes for this week, with some explanations on what’s to come (outside of this week). Generally speaking, we felt Zephyr needed the most attention, and while people appreciated aspects of Atlas and Nekros, there was more work to be done on their kits as well.

Chroma:

• In addition to Chroma being able to select elements in mission real-time (the biggest change), Chroma’s selectable element HUD now uses colour coding in addition to icon coding.
• Increased Spectral Scream damage from 200 to 400 Damage Per Second at Max Rank. This, combined with 100% Status Chance and Chaining should lead to some more deadly or useful scenarios, especially since you can use all 4 elements now!
  

Nekros:

• Nekros’ Soul Punch now has a new mechanic: Marked for Harvest. Enemies that are hit by Soul Punch but don’t die have a Duration wherein they’ll be eligible to become a Shadow if killed while Marked!
• This is in addition to the 25% lethality change and Shadow healing.
  

Zephyr:

The focus for this week was all about Airburst. Making the explosion valid for damage scaling changes the stakes when hitting groups with this ability which was a detail a few feedback posts requested or tried to make sense of.

• Airburst now deals 35% Additional Damage per enemy hit either with the projectile OR the explosion damage.
• Airbust now has a 50% chance of dealing a Physical status effect hit by this slice of air or it’s explosion radius, heavily skewing towards Slash.

Atlas:

Overall, we still intend to look more at Atlas’s Tectonics, but due to some AI complications and ‘gotchas’, we had to reset a timeline to revisit this with a future batch of abilities. For now, those who saw a slight utility boost in the AOE Damage / Stagger we added to Tectonics’ Bulwarks will benefit from what was observed on the Public Test Cluster.

Garuda Bleeding Talons Augment:

Generally speaking the action we felt necessary to take for launch surrounded Garuda’s Augment. All other augments performed as expected either in general or within their niches, there was consistent feedback about Garuda’s having a ‘feel’ issue.

• We have trimmed the animation time if released early and increased the range up to 9 meters for this Augment!

Steel Path + Acolyte Changes

In addition to written feedback and the poll results, we did a full statistical review of the amount of Steel Essence earned this weekend on both Test and Live, and we are moving forward with the values provided on the Test Cluster: 3 per Steel Essence Incursion Alert, and 2 per Acolyte (eligible for Resource Amount Boosting).

We settled on these values because of what happens when they're broken down by different acquisition methods: people gain Steel Essence at better rates when playing normally (i.e no AFK Macro detected)! In practice, the actual dependency on RNG and Eximus spawning is gone. You will have a stable, matchmaking friendly way to reliably earn Steel Essence in shorter intervals across more content.

In our view, it’s better to reward broader diverse play than hyper reward idle strategies, and the stats confirm this to be the case. On paper the absolute Top 1% of missions will see less Steel Essence per hour (i.e the single strategy AFK-Macro-run), every other mission strategy will see more.

• The Steel Path Acolytes now have received the same Status Effect eligibility treatment that Liches received in Update 27.3 earlier this year. This means we have slightly increased their health (scaled by squad size) as the Status Effect eligibility makes them easier to kill.

• Reduced the Melee attack damage on both Misery and Malice to avoid the more reported 1HKOs
• Created more regular spawn windows for Acolytes and fixed issues with them not spawning after 30 minute missions. They are guaranteed in each mission, and endlessly guaranteed in Endless missions!

Bounty Changes:

Pacing and bugs for the new bounty types have been reviewed, with some specifics to call out:

Codename: Polyp Juggernaut Bounty:

• Decreased frequency of random Juggernaut sniffing by over 50% to improve pacing.
• The Juggernaut moves faster.
• Increased the likeliness of a ‘truffle’ being closer to improve pacing
• General pacing improvements.
• Enemies now spawn on your Polyp Juggernaut’s position, making battle phase more engaging

Codename: Purifier Bounty:

• Purify Cell Carrier spawn rates increased to improve pacing.

Codename: Fluid Sac Encounter:

• Reduced ranged enemy presence, increased enemy density and reduced delay between reinforcements. Increase sac explosion radius from 10 to 13 meters.

Bonewidow Necramech Changes:

General Necramech Changes

• Necramechs (Bonewidow and Voidrig) now have a built in vacuum!
• Enemy Necramechs now have the ‘Lich’ treatment with vulnerability to Status Effects!
• Increased Shared Affinity Range in Landscape missions to 250 meters from 50 to assist with all things levelling on Landscapes (when Necramechs in non-Landscape missions come, this will of course change the levelling dynamic).

Bonewidow Changes

The Bonewidow was flagged as the item needing the most review, and we took a look at each Ability and made changes to its power, energy economy, and scalability.

Meathook

• Made the Meathook ability more responsive for targeting based on camera direction.
• Added a damage buff to melee attacks while holding an enemy on Meathook.
• Meathook now only costs energy on successful hit. It no longer costs energy to throw an enemy that is already held.

Shield Maiden

• Added ‘Ironskin’ style scaling to Shield Maiden, meaning all incoming damage right after the cast period scales the health of the Shield Maiden.
• Made the angle of Shield Maiden’s blocking angle more sensible for the front area of the Necramech.
• Blocking with both Ironbride and Shield Maiden will increase blocking angle.

Firing Line

• Energy cost reduced from 75 to 50

Exalted Ironbride

• Increased the damage overall for Exalted Ironbride since its attack speed is slower by design.
• Less energy is now required to sustain Exalted Ironbride.
• Slam attacks are better performing and more intuitive.

Not listed are the dozens and dozens of fixes included for launch on the more specific bugs and issues! A huge thanks goes out to the participants on the Public Test Cluster for giving us so much to work with. We spent the week with our heads down banging out as many meaningful changes that aligned with both the feedback received and our development goals. As is the way, things will still receive iteration and changes once our community-at-large is involved on PC and Consoles!

The Great Ensmallening Part 2 - Texture Remaster!

While part one of our first update touched our Lightmap compression, Part 2 brings us to the rest of Warframe’s TEXTURES! This update is a 10.6GB patch to free up 8GB of HDD space.

But wait, there’s more! As a bonus to touching every texture in Warframe, we used this opportunity to ask ourselves “is there anything else we can do to improve textures since we are going through all the work of touching them for compression anyways?” The answer: Yes! In short, we have also made improvements to how detailed the game looks overall. Take a look for yourself (download them and go back and forth for best effect)!

Great Ensmallening Part 2 Bug Report Megathread:

https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1234178-great-ensmallening-part-2-bug-report-megathread/

Baurahn Prime Ephemera Changes & Fixes:

We were originally a little conservative with the Baurahn Prime Ephemera as to not visually overwhelm. Based on your feedback post launch we’ve made a few changes:

• Aggressively reduced required idle times for the dragons to trigger.
• Enabled Energy colouring for the dragons metal textures.
  • Previously the metal parts of the dragons were locked as gold. Now it takes the primary Energy colour, and if you have the secondary unlocked, the Energy element of the dragons will favour that - so you can colour the metal with the primary and the Energy with the secondary.
• Increased scale of the smaller dragons.
• Fixed the Baurahn Prime Ephemera FX playing when in Navigation view, which can be visually overwhelming.

Vitrica Changes & Fixes:

• Added the Vitrica Blueprint to Simaris’ Offerings, which can be purchased once the Glassmaker boss has been completed.
• We noticed that players were not aware of the Vitrica shockwave feature created on slams, so we improved the FX to make it more visible and updated the description to communicate its existence, have fun!
  • The sword the fabled Orokin executioner Nihil used to glass the condemned. Swing while Aim Gliding to glass enemies. A Ground Slam will smash nearby glassed foes, while sending forward a narrow shockwave to shatter distant ones. A Heavy Slam sends forth a wider shockwave with greater force.
• Removed the Vitrica from Conclave - it sneaked in!
• Improvements towards the Vitrica slam shockwave FX.
• Fixed Vitrica and Vitrica’s glass detonation ignoring Limbo’s Rift mechanics.

Changes:

• Added an additional 30 Nightwave Prestige Ranks (150 max).
  • Our last Nightwave Prestige Rank increase proved to not be enough for those whose retroactive amount put them at the new max. More Ranks for more Crystal Cred!
• Disabled True Master Fonts (Relay Blessing) applying to conclave gameplay, as it provides an unfair advantage.

Fixes:

• Fixed Zenistar disc not expiring when in Titania’s Razorwing mode.
• Fixed Phobos Junction Mag Specter having double the intended Health and Shields.
• Fixed cases of inability to advance Dojo Research. As reported here!
• Fixed inability to use Navigation after accessing Railjack via the Pause Menu while in Navigation.
• Fixed Syndicate screens not displaying Standing amount remaining.
• Fixed Elemental FX being misaligned on the Guandao Prime.
• Fixed the weapon switch FX appearing overly bright for the Guandao Prime.
• Fixed a rare case of the ‘Hey Kiddo!’ playing each and every time you return to your Orbiter. As reported here!
• Fixed some Entrati Token icons appearing washed out in the UI.
• Fixed Stahltha Alt Fire sounds playing locally for all squadmates.
• Fixed Email not being hidden if you use Logout via Pause Menu while having Creator Mode enabled.
• Fixed a script error that would prevent Void Fissure gameplay logic from continuing after a Host migration occurs.
• Fixed a script error that could occur during a True Master’s Font Blessing.
• Fixed a script error when Kela De Thaym deploys an Orbital Strike attack.
• Fixed a script error when attempting to rescue a Solaris target in Orb Vallis.
• Fixed a script error that could occur when casting Warframe abilities that are overridden by Helminth that could result in inconsistent results across multiple players.

• Increased accuracy and reduced recoil of the Primary Catchmoon Kitgun when used with Tremor and Steadyslam Grips.
  • This change was planned for the upcoming Infested Kitguns but needed to squeak in early for the Riven Disposition changes!

Fixes:

• Fixed losing ability casting and weapon functionality when casting Gauss’ Thermal Sunder ability.
• Fixed Equinox’s Duality Specter not using your Secondary weapon if you don’t have a Primary weapon in your loadout.
• Fixed Prex Decorations having a large red box around it when selected instead of just the outline.

Optimizations

• Optimized terrain rendering.

Some fun facts: Terrain rendering optimization reduced cost ~30% (Deimos) ~50% (Plains of Eidolon) by grouping triplanar layers together per triplane and sharing texture gradients.

• Optimized initial download size by ~100MB.
• Optimized geometry on the Cambion Drift to improve framerate.
• Optimized rendering slightly when Bloom is disabled.
• Improved detection of run-time errors in the script system.
• Made systemic micro-optimizations to all code on Windows and Xbox One.
• Made a micro-optimization to splash effects on the water surface.
• Made systemic micro-optimizations to the memory allocator.
• Made a micro-optimization to the physics system.
• Made a micro-optimization to the effects system.
• Made a micro-optimization to the script runtime.
• Fixed CPU times increasing significantly when frequently switching between controller and keyboard.

Changes:

• Updated Mastery Rank icons to new Vitruvian design!

• Increased the Nightwave Prestige Rank cap by 30 Ranks! This will retroactively place you to the accurate Rank you’ve earned thus far! We know some Tenno have already reached the current Prestige Rank cap. Increasing it allows those Tenno to gain Crystal Cred for the remainder of Nightwave Series 3.
• Entrati member names will no longer appear when Creator Mode is enabled.
• The End of Mission ‘Important’ filter will now place Alert rewards at the top of the list.
• Clarified Daily Standing Bar value by adding the word ‘Remaining’ to indicate as such.
• Adjusted the Night Hunter Syandana wing spread idle animation slightly based on TennoGen creator feedback.
• Removed Latrox Une from the Simulacrum (because shooting your friends is mean).

Fixes:

• Fixed a crash that could occur if you lose connection to a Host shortly after connecting to a new mission.
• Fixed a rare crash that could occur with certain weapons with extreme Mod configurations.
• Fixed a crash in the Simulacrum while firing a Convectrix that had max ranked Tainted Shell and Narrow Barrel Mods equipped.
• Fixed a loss of functionality if you open the Pause Menu with the controller and Fast Travel to a vendor while a Profit-Taker Heist Bounty is counting down.
• Pausing during the countdown is no longer possible.
• Fixed aggressive spot load when hovering over Quest-locked nodes in the Star Chart.
• Fixed the Latrox Une “Sample Collection” Bounty phase taking longer than intended to complete due to the samples not dropping in their entirety. We found that 20% of the time a sample was meant to drop, it wouldn't.
• Fixed Trinity’s Blessing fully restoring Health/Shields of mission objectives.
• Per Healing Defendable Targets Dev Workshop: it should "Restore 500 Health over 5 seconds".
• Fixed Mirage’s Total Eclipse Augment Mod buff being shared with Necramechs.
• Fixed the Split Flight buff not resetting if the buff expires when in Titania’s Razorwing.

• Fixed some spawning range issues with Deimos Jugulus’ due to frequently spawning very close to each other. This could cause other enemies to not spawn as frequent due to the amount of Jugulus’ present.
• Fixed snow-weather data (Orb Vallis) overwriting the rain-weather data that was intended for Plains of Eidolon, which was causing way more frequent precipitation than desired.
• Fixed Syndicate Standing earned in (Elite) Sanctuary Onslaught not being displayed on the Mission Progress screen.
• Fixed the UI not displaying ‘1’ when you have just a single Entrati Token.

October 15th, 2020 Forum Post - Nights of Naberus

Nights of Naberus

Nights of Naberus have arrived!

The ancient festival of death and mischief has begun on all platforms!

On Naberus, beauty is banished. Rot and monstrosity hold sway. And Daughter couldn’t be more excited!

To get everyone in the Naberus spirit, she’ll be dressing up in Morbid costume and offering exclusive, limited-time rewards available for purchase through her special Naberus-themed store in the Necralisk.

Listen to a gruesome tale narrated by Grandmother in the comfort of your Orbiter with a creepy Naberus-themed decoration, or enjoy an assortment of Glyphs, Emblems, Skins and Blueprints - all available for purchase using Mother Tokens.

Optimizations:

• Made a micro-optimization to the Health and Shield display on the HUD.
• Made systemic micro-optimizations to game-code using scripts.
• Made systemic micro-optimizations to physics sweep queries.
• Made a micro-optimization to animation inverse kinematics.
• Made systemic micro-optimizations to the script runtime.
• Made a micro-optimization to the perception system.
• Made a micro-optimization to the damage system.
• Made a micro-optimization to the effects system.
• Made some micro-optimizations to level loading.
• Made a micro-optimization to the sound system.
• Made a micro-optimization to the script system.
• Made a micro-optimization to text localization.
• Made a micro-optimization to flash rendering.
• Made a micro-optimization to UI rendering.
• Made a micro-optimization to loading.
• Optimized a small memory leak that would occur in certain Railjack missions.
• Fixed a tiny memory leak that would occur when killing Jen Dro in The Index; while inconsequential for regular play this leak showed up in an automated stress-test that pits Brokers vs Executioners for hours at a time.

Changes:

• Reduced Isolation Vault Bounty Toxicity phase from 3 minutes to 1:30 minutes.

An early change meant for Update Deimos: Arcana that was low risk to add now! Feedback alluded to this phase not offering much variety within the Bounty - so we’ve shortened it to get you to the meat of the Bounty quicker!

• The Helminth Subsume confirmation prompt will now show the Forma count on the respective Warframe.
• Increased default analog stick deadzones values to 20%. The value was previously 15% only for look/aim inputs, but then was changed to 15% for all analog stick inputs, but this introduced some drift for certain players.

Fixes:

• Fixed a functionality loss when Upgrading the Railjack Grid then going back while looking at the tooltip.
• Fixed Mirage’s Eclipse ability not functioning properly with Deferred Rendering enabled. As detailed here!
  • A sharp-eyed Tenno noticed a change with Eclipse's damage bonus using our new Enhanced Graphics engine setting, and it turns out Mirage had us all under an illusion. Eclipse changes its effect intensity based on how bright (or dark) your current location is. The game calculates the brightness by considering all the light sources that are affecting you. The problem... Under the Enhanced Graphics engine, lighting is handled in a different way than the Classic way we've been using for years. So while playing Landscape missions the sunlight was not being included in the intensity. What looked like bright open ground lit by the sun was, as far as the game is concerned internally, gloomy and overcast. This will be fixed such that the Eclipse ability will consider the real-time sunlight under the Enhanced renderer. We cannot guarantee that the results will be exactly the same using the two equations, but any difference should be negligible.

Enhanced Graphics Engine

Last week we included a ‘Missed Change Note’ that the ‘Deferred Rendering’ Display Option was renamed to ‘Graphics Engine’. While this is true at a base level, it’s actually more exciting than that, as it involves moving into “Next Gen’ by phasing out our old rendering engine!

Please read the full details here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1229889-the-enhanced-graphics-engine/

Optimizations

• Made numerous micro-optimizations to scene rendering.
• Optimized Local Reflections.
• Optimized Foliage Rendering in the Enhanced Graphics Engine.
• Optimized Visibility Culling speed and memory footprint slightly.
• Optimized initial install size slightly.
• Made systemic micro-optimizations to the animation system.
• Made a micro-optimization to the Foot IK system.
• Made a micro-optimization to HUD rendering.
• Minor quality improvements for hair rendering.

Changes:

• Added game settings for tweaking deadzone values and other input behaviour for controller analog sticks. Each analog stick now has 3 settings as outlined on https://www.warframe.com/gamepad. This should improve the accuracy for movement controls in particular, which previously used a square deadzone, resulting in inconsistent mapping for diagonal inputs.
  • 
• Removed ability to open the Helminth screen by fast-traveling using Operator mode, this led to issues with your Warframe becoming invisible.
• Updated Ivara's Quiver, Vauban's Minelayer, Xaku's The Lost, and Titania's Tribute ability descriptions to list the sub-abilities and a brief general description of what they do. Tips related to these sub-abilities for each Warframe have also been edited for accuracy as a result.
• Updated Zephyr’s Airburst ability description to include the tap-and-hold mechanic.

Helminth Fixes

• Fixed enemies becoming permanently ragdolled after casting Nezha’s Divine Spears into a Larva via Helminth Subsumed ability.
• Fixed Helminth Infused ability functionality issues when casting Wisp’s Sol Gate.
• Fixed missing UI indication on Quiver Cloak Arrow's duration remaining via Helminth Subsumed.
• Fixed Nidus’ abilities HUD having greyed out icons for Helminth Infused abilities.

Fixes:

• Fixed the Warframe launcher breaking uninstall when using standalone-installer.
• Fixed inability to Swap a Polarization.
  • This was Hotdropped live last week!
• More fixes towards a crash that could occur in a Survival mission when choosing to return to the Orbiter.
• Fixed Isolation Vault Bounty Bait and objective markers remaining after the Bounty is abandoned.
• Fixed cases of the Upgrade screen showing negative stats after applying Forma to a weapon.
  • We found this isn't super useful and forces you to exit the Upgrades screen if you want it to show the actual effects of the Mods installed afterwards.
• Fixed Profile ‘Kills’ and ‘Time Played’ Stats being influenced by the Simulacrum.
  • Simulacrum is a testing ground!
• Fixed left trigger no longer opening Chat with controller after you save controller bindings once. As reported here!
• Fixed the Infested Salvage End of Mission Reward screen UI stating 50 Endo instead of 300 Endo.
  • This is a visual issue only, the correct amount of Endo was awarded.
• Fixed missing Blueprint locations for the Zymos and Keratinos when viewing in the Market.
• Fixed the Daedalus Leg Armour appearing small when equipped on the Hydroid Rakkam Skin.
• Fixed sometimes facing the wrong direction when loading into the Simulacrum Arsenal.
• Fixed cases of Simaris appearing white instead of orange when entering Sanctuary Onslaught.
• Fixed Quatz reload and Plinx charge reload audio issues when a Skin is equipped.
• Fixed Oscira Sugatra offset on numerous Melee weapons.
• Fixed collision issues with the Oscira Thrown Blade Skin when exiting the Simulacrum Arsenal.
• Fixed Gauss Graxx Helmet flames always being orange instead of reacting to the chosen Energy Color as the rest of the Redline ability does.
• Fixes towards cloth collision on the Mirage Kitsune Helmet.

September 29th, 2020 Forum Post - Prime Vault

Prime Vault: Ember & Frost Prime

Add dueling elemental forces to your Arsenal with the latest Prime Vault release!

Ember Prime and Frost Prime, as well as their Prime Weapons and exclusive Customizations are now available for a limited time! Trinity Prime Packs, Nova Prime Packs, and their Relics have returned to the Vault.

Ember Prime, Frost Prime, Latron Prime, Reaper Prime, Sicarus Prime, and Glaive Prime Relics have been added back to the droptables!

Visit https://www.warframe.com/prime-vault to check out the Prime Vault Offerings!

Note: As some of you have noticed, our Prime Vault rotation this round has gone on a little long. We had to put a lot of work into making Deimos a simultaneous release during COVID times, and that meant we had to divert focus and people away from some other items. Prime Vault was one of those items.

This means the next Prime Vault offering is a tried and true debut of Ember and Frost Prime (full details to come tomorrow). It also means that we are now in a position to make the Vault following Ember and Frost Prime offer new-to-Vault contents because we recognize how important this is.

Thank you for understanding!

Marked For Death Changes

(Original Dev Workshop can be found here:

https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1227741-marked-for-death-where-we%E2%80%99ve-been-and-changes-to-come/?tab=comments#comment-11868546 )

We are changing Marked for Death to start its base Damage at 75%, which will cap at 150% with Mods. Since the ‘Damage Type In = Damage Type Out’, this will scale well with certain Damage types, specifically ones with DOTS which is what we envision.

Simply put: We’re bringing the damage back up!

Helminth Railjack Resources and Bile Changes

(Original Dev Workshop can be found here:

https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1227534-helminth-railjack-resources-bile-changes/?tab=comments#comment-11866782 )

Railjack Resources

There will be a reduction in the batches of Railjack Resource Costs across the board required to yield Helminth Secretions.

The changes are as follows:

Resource	Pre-Hotfix Batch	Post-Hotfix Batch	% Reduction
Asterite	5,000	1,500	30.00%
Aucrux Capacitors	25	10	40.00%

Note that when downloading the update the launcher will do an automatic optimize pass before downloading more (this is necessary to free up space for the new remastered content).

For full in depth details please visit The Great Ensmallening Dev Workshop: [1]

Xaku Changes & Fixes

Keeping within the realm of the “community-created Warframe” project, Xaku has received numerous changes based on your feedback! We welcome your feedback post launch in the official Dev Workshop: [2]

We consider these changes “Round 1” with more to come once players have graciously again provided their feedback!

Xaku’s Passive:

• Including AOE damage reduction as part of Xaku’s Passive.
  • How it will work: AOE damage will simply take a 25% damage reduction (75% while The Vast Untime is active).
  • Currently, Xaku’s Passive provides a chance that incoming projectiles will fail to hit the warframe at all, instead going right through. But does not include any protection from enemy AOE damage. For example, if a Bombard shot a rocket at Xaku, the projectile itself would have a 25% chance to pass through them and deal no damage (75% with The Vast Untime), but the explosion following would have the full effect. With this change, Xaku’s Passive additionally grants them 25% damage reduction on the following AOE explosion from that rocket. That’s increased to 75% when Xaku is running around bare bones!

Xata’s Whisper:

• We are making Void damage ‘True Neutral’ by removing the 50% resistance of Void damage on Cloned Flesh and Fossilized enemies - a long desired request for Void damage.
  • Currently, Void damage is relatively ineffective against Cloned Flesh and Fossilized enemies which greatly limits the use of Xata’s Whisper on Grineer and Infested enemies. In an effort to give it (and Void damage in general) more utility across enemy categories, we are removing this resistance so that it aligns with its neutral effectiveness against the other enemy types. It is important to note that Eidolons, Amalgams, and certain bosses will still maintain this resistance.

Grasp of Lohk:

• Increasing the speed at which enemies are disarmed so that it occurs earlier in the casting animation. Also increasing the casting animation speed overall.
  • Currently, the point of when enemies are disarmed once Grasp of Lohk is cast is far too delayed.
• Increased Grasp of Lohk’s disarming range from 8m to 15m.
  • Not to be confused with firing range, this increase allows a bigger berth for choosing victims to disarm with Grasp of Lohk.
• Allowing Grasp of Lohk to be recast.
  • How it will work: Any existing Grasp of Lohk weapons will simply be replaced by the new cast up to the maximum amount of targets.
  • Currently, once Grasp of Lohk is cast, you are locked with the weapons that were grabbed until the end of the ability’s duration. This is obviously limiting if the ability was cast with undesired effect. To counteract this limitation, we are adding the option to recast with the added benefit of resetting the ability’s duration and disarming a new set of enemies where/when desired.

The Lost: Deny

• Adding synergy between Deny and Grasp of Lohk that increases Deny’s damage output.
  • How it will work: The number of weapons orbiting Xaku from Grasp of Lohk act as a damage multiplier for Deny’s Void beam. For example: If you have 4 weapons orbiting Xaku, Deny’s damage will be granted a 5x multiplier.
• Increasing the casting speed of Deny.
  • More firepower… faster!

The Vast Untime:

• Removing the Energy drain and keeping it a duration based ability.
  • Currently, the Energy drain on top of its casting cost and duration is far too restrictive and punishing.
• Adding Synergy between The Vast Untime and all of Xaku’s other abilities.
  • How it will work: Emphasis on “Untime”, when Xaku is in their skeletal form their other active abilities’ duration will become frozen in time. Once The Vast Untime expires, the duration of those active abilities resume. This was suggested in our feedback readings and we quite enjoyed the play on the ‘untime’ theme and the added benefit to Xaku overall! We feel that since this no longer has an Energy drain, and that it halts the timer on other abilities, the energy demands of Xaku’s kit will be significantly lessened.
    • Note: This will not apply to Helminth abilities and abilities from other Warframes from Helminth subsuming.

Xaku Fixes:

• Fixed Deny having poor hit detection on ragdolled or suspended enemies.
• Fixed targets affected by Accuse have inconsistent hit detection based on weapon type (beam, bolt, etc).
• Fixed a case of dealing self damage via Xaku’s Whisper.

Marked for Death Changes

Before we jump into the nitty gritty, let’s revisit what the ‘Marked for Death’ Helminth Infusion is: Stun an enemy; a portion of the next damage you deal to it will be dealt to all enemies around it.

It’s important to note that the description mentions ‘a portion of the next damage’, which was always our intent, meaning we have some bugs to fix and explanations to make on the next steps here.

With Marked for Death now in the wild and being experimented with, it was apparent to not be working as intended by overwhelmingly nuking enemies left, right, and center when combined with certain loadouts and due to certain bugs. We recognize the players who brought this forward with understanding that it needs to be addressed. Let’s get into the meat of it:

• Fixed Mods applying twice to the Marked for Death Damage portion dealt in the AOE.
• Fixed base Damage using the Health/Shield Damage dealt and not capped at the Health+Shield the target had prior (e.g. enemy with 5 Health gets hit by 100 damage, and 100 damage is shared in AOE. It should just be the 5).
  • Radial damage was never meant to exceed the target’s Health and this was our bad. The desired strategy we wanted was players prioritizing tank units like Heavy Gunners to do AOE clears since heavy units have more Health than normal, thus the radial AOE would likely be lethal, not just normal units. This issue combined with numerous bugs of Mods stacking meant this was way over powered. A key part of reviewing these changes will be ensuring that players understand the best case scenario we envision for the power is targeting high-Health enemies to do radial damage to weaker enemies.
• Removed Critical Chance from Marked for Death radial AOE.
• Capped Damage multiplier stat to 75% and normalized Damage type mults.
  • Here’s an example of normalized Damage type: if the Damage you deal is 0.5 Impact, 0.4 Slash, 0.3 Heat that sums to 1.2x but after normalizing they become 0.42 Impact, 0.33 Slash, 0.25 Heat.
• Fixed Marked for Death with Arcane Trickery equipped triggering invisibility almost every time, because each enemy hit by the AoE has its own 15% chance to activate Arcane Trickery.

• An accumulation of Community and Developer feedback have brought forth a handful of Avichea changes and fixes:
  • Avicheas now correctly fly in circles around the spawn call area once they reach it instead of hovering directly above it, sometimes widely out of range.
    • This brings Avicheas in line with other flying animals like the Sawgaw, where they fly closer to the call point and land near it.
  • Diversified ambient Avichea encounters so that they can either be encountered flying around an area or low down perched on the ground.
    • Previously ambient Avicheas were only found flying high in the sky, which could easily be missed to the busy eyes.
  • Increased the spawn chances of ambient Avichea encounters.
  • Improvements towards Avichea animations.
    • This also fixes cases of ambiently spawned Avichea’s 'slowly ascending to the heavens'.
  • Fixed Avicheas (and Mergoos) not flying away when gunfire is nearby.
    • Birds do as birds do - Warframe ain’t no different! Being stealthy is key for catching these animals.
  • Fixed some Conservation trail start points appearing under the endocrine goo in the Cambion Drift.
  • Fixed inability to move, shoot, switch weapons or use Warframe abilities after hitting a dissolving corpse with the Infested Ebisu or Spari Spear whilst fishing.

Please note that the Conservation team has more planned in terms of quality changes and fixes - stay tuned!

Fishing Changes & Fixes

• Improved spawn rate of Fish in the Cambion Drift to be closer to past Free Roam behaviour. You should generally have a maximum time between fish of ~15 seconds instead of ~50 seconds.
  • We welcome your feedback if even further changes are needed!
• Reduced the number of Fish parts required per Daughter Exocrine Assignment from 3 down to 2. This brings Daughters economy in line with Son, where the max number of requested parts is 2.
• Fixed some various script errors that sometimes resulted in an inability to catch Fish.
• Fixed Cambion Drift Fish spawning in the same spot over and over if you didn’t move.
• Fixed throwing your Fishing Spear into Mag's Magnetize can lead to temporary or complete loss of functionality.
• Fixed some jittery hands animations that play throughout the Fishing Spear throw+recall sequence.

Necramech Changes & Fixes

• Currently there is a 3 minute cooldown on every use of the Necramech Summon Gear item. We’ve changed the cooldown behavior of the Necramech Summon to reflect the following:
  • If the player's Necramech is still active, then the Necramech Summon only has a 10 second cooldown. Summoning it this way will move the Necramech to the player's desired position but NOT restore its Health/Shields/Energy.
  • If the player's Necramech has been destroyed, then the Necramech Summon has a 3 minute cooldown, and will have its Health/Shields/Energy refilled on summon.
• Reduced the Necramech’s Shocking Iron ability sound loop.
• Fixed summoned Necramech’s not having their Modded values when summoned again after dying.
  • This was an issue before the cooldown changes.

Fixed summoned Client Necramech’s having 0 Energy when summoned again after dying.

• • This was an issue before the cooldown changes.
• Fixed rare case of a player's Warframe ceasing to exist after Transferring into a Necramech, resulting in an inability to Transference back into your Warframe.
• Fixed personal Necramech losing all functionality after Transferring into a fallen Necramech and then summoning your own Necramech.
• Fixed ability to interrupt the Necramech ground slam attack with another ground slam attack or normal melee attack.
• Fixed Client Necramech’s appearing to run in place after Transferring out of the Necramech with forward momentum.
• Fixed the Necramech appearing crushed around an Excalibur when viewed via Look Link or Mod Link.
• Fixed the Necramech model clipping/overlapping with the Upgrade screen when accessed in a Hub/Town.
• Fixed Necramech UI and regular weapon crosshair overlapping when attempting to access the Gear wheel via controller while in the Necramech.
• Fixed Necramech weapon appearing blurry after Transferring into a summoned Necramech before the weapon opening animation finishes.

Sepulcrum Changes & Fixes

• Decreased the unguided flight time of the Alt Fire on launch from 0.06s to 0.03secs.
• Decreased the unguided flight time of the Alt Fire smoothing from 1s to 0.4secs.
  • This makes the Alt Fire projectile start to home in on their targets faster and curve more acutely towards them.
• Decreased Alt Fire re-arming delay from 0.2s to 0.01secs.
  • This decreases the time between being able to lock onto additional targets after the first.
• Increased max lock distance from 60m to 80m.
• Increased loose lock distance from 80m to 100m.
  • This increases the distance you can lock onto targets with Alt Fire from 60m to 80m, and lock won't be lost unless the targets move beyond 100m.
• Fixed cases of the Sepulcrum Alt Fire not properly targeting enemies.

Optimizations

• Optimized performance of several user interfaces including the Nightwave and Void Relic Refinement screens.
• Optimized download of some parts of Warframe.
• Made a large number of small optimizations to the UI system.

Changes:

• General polish and cleanup of sounds in the Arsenal to remove unintended sounds.

Helminth Fixes

• Fixed a crash when hovering over the Roar ability in the Upgrade screen on a Hildryn which had Balefire replaced by Roar via Helminth.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when sitting in the Helminth chair with poor connection quality.
• Fixed Infested Mobility buff effects never ending when under Rank 3.
• Fixed Infested Mobility not being affected by Strength like the Arsenal stat screen claims.
• Fixed Infusing a new ability via the Helminth to Config D, E, or F not showing the ability has been applied until the player loads into a mission.
• Fixed Titania's Tribute HUD not working if Razorwing was overwritten via Helminth.
• Fixed rare case of the UI showing that you have the exact Secretion % required but won’t let you perform the action. This was due to rounding values in the back end that aren’t visible in the UI.
• Fixed missing check mark beside recently earned Helminth Rank until you close and re-open the Helminth interface.

Fixes:

• Fixed inability to progress through some Corpus/Grineer Invasion missions due to an inability to enter the portal, and just getting put through a never ending loop that goes nowhere.
• Fixed Carnis Set Mods not functioning for both Host or Client players.
• Fixed cases where Limbo’s Banish could be cast with 0 Energy.
• Fixed the Soma Prime's Hata-Satya Mod not respecting Multishot for Clients.

• Fixed Zymos not spitting out the homing spore projectiles after the headshot explosion triggers for Clients.
• Fixed Garuda’s Dread Mirror Damage Capture Multiplier/Projectile Damage not matching ability screen numbers in the Arsenal.
• Fixed ability to go under the floor with a combination of Transference and Titania’s Razorwing.
• Fixed Garv and his Grineer hooligans not de-spawning after doing a Bounty such as Anomaly Retrieval or Core Samples. This results in multiple Garv’s in the Cambion Drift when doing back to back Bounties.
• Fixed issues with the Purify Deimos Bounty, where the 'samples' UI will decrease from 35-15 when a Host migrates. However, the collected amount doesn't reflect this switch and will be greater than the UI limit indicates.
• Fixed the Latrox Une ‘upload’ phase skipping if there's a Host migration while collecting samples for Latrox Une.
• Fixed the Deimos Claw Skin not applying properly to the Keratinos.
• Fixed inability to quickly select the Secondary Emissive and Energy colors when attempting to customize Warframe/Weapon colour Appearance using the controller d-pad.
• Fixed the default icons for Mutagen and Antigen samples in the Predasite/Vulpaphyla Revivification menu (Son at Necralisk) being swapped.
• Fixed a section in the Harindi Crater within the Orb Vallis that resulted in your Warframe turning invisible, the minimap changing, and enemies not attacking you.
• Fixed inability to spawn Deimos Saxum/Deimos Saxum Rex in the Simulacrum.
• Fixed Tokens appearing in End of Mission screen with common items. Should now appear above regular Resources and Mods.

Changes:

  • A Fish Trophy is great, but it needed a bit more variety!
• Blueprints and Entrati Tokens will now appear closer to the top of the End of Mission Reward section when ordered by ‘Importance’, instead of being buried under Mods and Resources.

• Fixed fallen Necramech’s Guard Mode ability not functioning, and instead just draining Energy.

September 10th, 2020 Forum Post

As we’re now 2 weeks post Heart of Deimos launch, Hotfix notes will contain spoilers, such as accurate Entrati member terms, more descriptive Quest phase fixes, etc.

Necramech Changes & Fixes

• Necramech’s can no longer interact with Ramparts or hack Alarm Towers in the Plains of Eidolon.
  • This fixes a functionality loss when interacting with a Rampart while in a Necramech and hacking issues specifically with the Plains Alarm Tower.
• We have adjusted the Necramech Drop tables to have a mix of Mods in the Necraloid Syndicate as well as on Necramechs outright.
• Removed Necramech Vitality, Refuel, Necramech Intensify, and Necramech Pressure Point from Necramech Drops and moved to Loid’s Necraloid Offerings for Standing. warframe.com/droptables has been updated!
• Fixed becoming stuck mid-Transference when attempting to exit your Necramech while going through Deck 12 in Orb Vallis.
• Fixed inability to Operator Void Dash after getting nullified by a Necramech during the Isolation Vault Bounty.
• Fixed ability to bypass the Plains of Eidolon and Cambion Drift perimeters with a Necramech. This also fixes the ability to summon a Necramech when out of bounds.
• Fixed ability to ignore teleport volumes and walk along lake-beds with the Necramech by keeping constant forward momentum in the Plains of Eidolon.
• Fixed the Host Necramech UI getting overlapped if a Client squadmate exits their Necramech.
• Fixes towards blank ‘Mission Progress’ screen when viewed while in a Necramech.
  • Still some issues with going from Warframe > Operator > then to Necramech.

General Weapon Changes

• Trumna
  • Removed Punch Through on the Trumna Alt Fire projectile.
    • The main feature of the Alt Fire is the radial attack on each bounce, and Punch Through can make it disappear through geometry. Disabling on the projectile only allows Punch Through to be used with the Primary Fire without affecting the Alt Fire.

• Quassus
  • Increased Heavy Attack projectiles from 35 to 76
    • Also fixed Quassus Heavy Attack projectiles being slowed down to 15% of their original speed after punching through an enemy.
  • Reduced horizontal spread of projectiles
    • Quassus throws 12 projectiles with a pretty wide horizontal spread, spreading the Damage across multiple targets. Individual damage was not where we wanted it. Increasing it over 100%, narrowing the spread and making sure it will hit additional targets after passing through, increases its lethality to intended levels.

• Zymos
  • Decreased projectile spread of Multishot projectiles
  • Increased projectile speed from 59 to 79
    • Decreasing spread from Multishot and increasing the projectile speed makes landing headshots with all the projectiles a bit easier.

Helminth Fixes

• Fixed losing weapon functionality when casting Resonator on a Warframe other than Octavia (Subsumed).
• Fixed getting double prompted to Rush a Subsume if you rejected the first prompt and then went to Feed the Helminth.

• Made a few micro-optimizations to HUD Damage indicators.
• Made some micro-optimizations to HUD rendering.

Changes:

• The ‘Awakening’ cinematic now supports translated subtitles.
• Added Ether Daggers to Simaris’ Offerings for players who might have sold theirs.
• Updated Deimos Mutagen and Antigen descriptions to indicate which animal they are designated for (Predasite vs Vulpaphyla).
• Improvements towards Operator eye textures and shading to look less flat. Look, look with your special eyes!

Infested Companion Fixes

• Fixed many cases where the Sly Vulpaphyla wouldn't respect cooldowns, would fail to trigger, or would result in Client FX not getting cleaned up.
• Fixed inability to swap Polarities via Forma on Infested Companions.
• Fixed the name of newly Gilded Infested Companions not appearing in the Arsenal.

Deferred Rendering Fixes

• Fixes towards volumetric lighting issues when Deferred Rendering is enabled.
• Fixes towards scenarios where the Operator appears visually blown out in the Orbiter when Deferred Rendering is both enabled or disabled.
• Fixes towards overly waxy looking skin for the Operator when Deferred Rendering is both enabled or disabled.
• Fixed Wyrm Residue puddles not scaling in size properly with Dynamic Resolution enabled alongside Deferred Rendering. As reported here!

Fixes:

• Fixed the Arquebex having an unintended 9th Mod Slot.
  • Any Polarizations done to this now removed 9th Mod Slot have been transferred over to a free universal (blank) Mod Slot upon login of this Hotfix. In the very rare case of having Polarized the 9th Mod Slot to be universal (blank), the Forma is refunded.
• Fixed a case where Latrox Une wouldn’t spawn if Garv’s encounter happened before it, and Garv was still around.
• Fixed inability to progress past the first mission of Saya’s Vigil Quest when replaying it.

• Fixes towards players unable to launch Archwing after multiple Transference activations.
• Fixed certain Warframe abilities (Mesa's Shattered Shield, Mag's Magnetize) that create reflecting bullets counting towards hits that increase the Hata-Satya Critical Chance buff. Only hits performed by Soma Prime should increase the Hata-Satya Critical Chance buff.
• Fixed Smeeta Kavat's Mischief ability, Carnis Mod Set bonus, and Survival Instinct modifying evasion incorrectly, and instead acting as a debuff as opposed to the proper buff.
• Fixed Clients always hitting a fade-to-black teleport volume when entering the Isolation Vault.
• Fixed Ash’s Shuriken ability not being affected by Power Strength Mods.
• Fixed Limbo not gaining Energy from enemies killed in the Rift.
• Fixed spot-loading when previewing Revivification combinations with Son in the Necralisk.
• Fixed certain Excavation spawns not scaling in level with the rest of the enemies.
• Fixed Mining, Fishing or Conservation marking the Free Roam node as completed before the Bounty is done.
• Fixed Scan Aquatic Lifeforms Mod sometimes not revealing fish on Orb Vallis and Plains of Eidolon. As reported here!
• Fixed cases where the Hata-Satya Mod HUD buff may remain on screen, and not resetting if you enter bleedout in the middle of a casting animation.
• Fixed missing the Entrati Rank up cutscene if you opened the ESC menu right before the cutscene starts.
• Fixed Parvos Granum appearing visually blown out in some cases.
• Fixed Hydroid’s Relay Captura Scene having too many NPCs.
• Fixed Nidus’ infestation not applying color properly. As reported here!
• Fixed Vauban’s coattails missing the PBR treatment. He should match/blend much better now! As reported here!

• Fixed the ESC menu saying ‘Deimos’ where it should have said Necralisk while in the Syndicates menu.
• Fixed Cortege prompting to install a Gravimag first as opposed to a Catalyst. This weapon comes with a Gravimag pre-installed, it will only ask you for a Catalyst if you wish to add one.
• Fixed Protea’s Dispensary minimap icon not disappearing if you’re not in the same tile when the ability expires.
• Fixed missing 'Hide Owned' Toggle for the Necralisk Oddities Offerings.
• Fixed missing ‘Owned’ icons for the Necralisk Oddities Offerings if you owned only 1 of the item.
• Fixed artifacting visuals in the Cambion Drift Wyrm debris puddles.

• Fixed Wisp not reflecting visual customizations in her Abilities diorama screen.
• Fixed Chat Linked Reflex Guard Mod appearing as its old version (Parry Chance).
• Fixed a terrain hole in the Orb Vallis. As reported here!
• Fixed in-game search not supporting some Turkish characters; including store Offerings, Inventory and especially Chat Link.
• Fixed grammatical errors in Executioner Garesh’s Codex description.
• Fixed script error if you tried to press the Rank up button on a Syndicate screen right after pressing ESC to back out to the all Syndicate view.
• Fixed a script error related to Syandanas that open/close in certain situations.
• Fixed a script error potentially related to Hildryn’s Pillage ability.

Hotfix 29.0.7

Expand

September 3rd, 2020 Forum Post

In an attempt to keep these notes spoiler free you may notice some less-descriptive language than usual - thank you for your diligent reporting!

Deimos Swarm Support Pack Addition

An additional Syandana, called Palla Syandana, has been added to the Deimos Swarm Supporter Pack! Originally the Palla Syandana was going to be put elsewhere, but it’s design was intended to match the Supporter Pack aesthetic, so we’ve shifted plans and put it in the Deimos Swarm Pack.

We’ll be running a script to retroactively give the Palla Syandana to players who have purchased the Deimos Swarm Pack - stay tuned!

All purchases of the Deimos Swarm Pack moving forward will include the Palla Syandana.

Helminth Changes & Fixes

• Added Helminth Ability videos on hover of the respective abilities.
• Fixed rare case of getting forced-logged out of Warframe when attempting to Subsume a Warframe to the Helminth under poor Network conditions. As reported here.
• Fixed losing weapon functionality if Octavia had Shooting Gallery (Mesa Subsume) active and casted one of her other abilities.
• Fixed getting stuck in an inescapable UI loop when attempting to Rename Helminth from the specific console (just inside the door) if you try to submit an invalid name.

Deimos Bounty Changes

Scintillant in the ‘Common’ tier of a Deimos Bounty now has correct rarity weights within that tier. Previously it was applying it’s ‘Rare’ tier drop chance within the ‘Common’ tier - it is now a ~18% drop chance.

Conservation Change

• A marker will now appear when spotting Conservation scat through the Trang rifle scope or if a Lure is equipped.

Optimizations

• Optimizations towards the Deimos Drop Pod spotlight in the Cambion Drift.
• Fixed the Sly Vulpaphyla’s Survival Instinct FX causing a performance dip due to its visual distortion. As reported here!
• Fixed memory leak in UI system that could cause a crash when chilling in the Helminth chair.

Changes

• Reduced drop chance of Pherliac Pods Blueprint for Deimos Juggernaut to 5%.
• Changed 'Necramech Deflection' Mod name to 'Necramech Redirection' since we use Redirection for Max Shield Mods.

Fixes

• Fixed inability to log into Warframe if you didn’t own a Kubrow Companion.
  • This was hotdropped live Tuesday night!
• Fixed a crash when casting the Necramech’s Storm Shroud ability.
• Fixed a crash when casting the Necramech’s Necraweb ability.
• Fixed a crash when attempting to return to the Necralisk while a Corpus Survivors encounter activates.
• Fixed a crash if a Host migration occurred during a K-Drive race.
• Fixed numerous bugs that could occur after a Host migration, including starting on a Free Roam mission, Host-migrating, returning to Town/Hub, and then returning to the Free Roam landscape.

• Fixed fallen Necramech’s on Cambion Drift being Rank 0 for Clients.

• Fixed Necramech Ammo regeneration speed not changing per weapon equipped.
• Fixed a Revenant functionality loss if Reave is cast on an enemy who is both Enthralled and Blood Altared.
• Fixed cases of Revenant’s Reave hitting ragdolled enemies multiple times in rapid succession, potentially insta-killing them.
  • Added Developer Note: To get into specifics, once an enemy was ragdolled you actually hit their proxies, and each AI has a dozenish or so proxies, you get healed for each hit, easily making it a full heal and instakill for each ragdolled enemy. So you were getting '12' for the price of '1' enemy, which is clearly unintended.
• Fixed Heavy Gunners unintentionally having almost triple their Armor since Heart of Deimos. This change accidently occurred when changing Garv’s Armor value as they use the same back end. As reported here!
• Fixed Wyrm Residue not surviving a Host migration.
• Fixed inability to Trade "Trapezium Xenorhast" and "Cabochon Embolos".
• Fixed Xaku's base slow of The Vast Untime being 50% instead of intended 15% at Level 2. As reported here!

• Fixed Deimos Carnis and Deimos Carnis Rex not awarding kill Affinity.
• Fixed the Isolation Bounty objective not properly updating upon the second Vault's completion.
• Fixed Isolation Vault Esophage waypoint lingering after having left the Vault.
• Fixed stacking Deimos Saxum FX for Clients - should be easier to see around these boys now!

• Fixed another case of Deimos Bounty Bonus objective UI appearing in a different language. As reported here!

• Fixed a script error when leaving Cambion Drift while Infested Drop Pod reinforcements encounter activates.

Token Rank Balancing + Conservation Token Balancing

Ranking up in the Entrati Syndicate will now require a maximum of 1 Entrati Token type per rank (i.e 1x Conservation + 1x Fishing). Anyone who has already ranked up will receive a refund script within the next few days.

We have also done a significant rebalance pass of Conservation’s role in the Entrati Economy based on feedback.

• Reduced the Animal Tags required to complete a 1 Token Task by 50%.
• Reduced the average number of Animal Tags required for ‘Capture Deimos Wildlife’ Tasks which give 3, 4, and 5 Tokens.
• Fixed some ‘Capture Deimos Wildlife’ Tasks appearing as doubles, giving twice the intended Tokens without costing twice as much.
• Added a ‘Daily Special’ for Conservation to match the Daily Special for Fishing design by request.

Isolation Vault Bounty Changes & Fixes

• Increased the Bait Defense time from 60s to 90s and increased enemy reinforcements.
• Lowered drop rate of the Infested anti-toxin during the Toxin Level phase to increase difficulty - it’s too easy!
• Toxin Level will now greatly increase if players leave the designated area in an effort to increase team coordination and difficulty.
• Replaced the Volatile Runner with a Deimos Runner in the Toxin Level phase.
• Fixed a crash that could occur if the Host migrated during an Isolation Vault Bounty.
  • This also fixes having to repeat Isolation Vault stages if a Host migration occurred.
• Fixed a ‘worst case scenario’ procedural generation where some Isolation Vaults would not have the Reactive Crystal intact, which occurred in a 1 hour window last night.

Scintillant Changes

General note re: Scintillant! We discussed it yesterday, and realized the Scintillant description was too vague in terms of other methods to acquire it and updated its description in the last Hotfix. Overnight, we ran stats and the amount collected was too low, which is widely accepted from the community to be the case. While we all start with baseline ‘0’ for new Updates, this Resource is an outlier in how slowly it’s being accrued, which is to say current pacing not our intention. They should feel like a revised Cetus Wisp, but when we compared the two overnight, and considering more people are playing Heart of Deimos and how many Scintillant are needed, they were lower to a degree that doesn’t make sense with their hookup. Here is how we are fixing that today:

• Isolation Bounty Necramech’s now have a chance to drop Scintillant.
• Fixed issues with being able to pick up Scintillant within the Vault environments.
• Increased the spawn chance and spawn radius size of Scintillant within Vault environments.
• Removed Scintillant as one of the Weapons Entrati members ‘Parts Requisition’ Tasks.
• Added a slight glow effect to the Scintillant to increase visibility.
• Increased the audio loop sound effect when a Scintillant is nearby.

Changes:

• Player-usable Necramechs that you can Transference into on the Cambion Drift no longer drop rewards.
  • Transferring into a Necramech and then standing around waiting for it to die to drop rewards is far from the intentions of the Necramech system. We understand this is a frustrating oversight. Additionally, this was often bugged that only 1 person got the drop at all. Enemy Necramechs in the Isolation Vaults will still drop rewards, and now they’ll drop more of them (Scintillant).
• You can now enjoy Deimos from afar as a new planet backdrop when back in your Orbiter!
• Appearance improvements towards Maggot and Crawler death FX.
• Optimized mining visibility more by preventing certain ‘pulsing’ aspects of the world overlapping nodes.
• Optimized locations of Esophage exit ports.
• Reduced camera shake on the second stage of the Heart of Deimos quest.
• Hydroid Rakkam Kraken will now be the deluxe version when casting Undertow.
• Tweaked the holstered idle pose of the Keratinos to avoid clipping.

Fixes:

• Fixed a progression stopper in the Heart of Deimos Quest if enemies spawn behind doors.
• Fixed ghost channel members lingering behind in Relays and Towns causing confusion and server-strain.
• Fixed a Heart of Deimos progression stop if you used Transference when in the Necramech cutscene.
• Fixed certain icons being reversed for repaired Cortege Receiver / Stocks.
• Failed failed purchases at Fishing/Conservation Entrati members showing empty quotes instead of the item name.
• Fixed Fish part quantities not displaying properly when Cut with the Fishing Entrati member in the Necralisk. This should now equally match when you see when Providing/Cutting Fish in Fortuna/Cetus.
  • Note that this is a fix to the user interface: Despite the “Cut fish” summary previously not showing a number of some parts when you cut multiple fish at once, you did actually get those parts.
• Fixed an Obelisk exploit with certain AI combinations.
• Fixed an issue where starting a multiplayer mission just as the Wyrm’s were rotating could cause level issues.
• Fixed an issue with the truly ‘dead’ Mechs not looking deader-than-dead, meaning no Transference allowed.
• Fixed Mod Link configs from Configuration B not showing Subsumed abilities.
• Fixed issues with the Ashen Mod sets not functioning properly.
• Fixed Esophage fast travel not working as intended on Clients.
• Fixed a crash that would occur when in a Necramech when someone disconnects.
• Fixed a crash that would occur when starting certain Cambion Drift Bounties.
• Fixed issues with proper attachment/detachment of enemy Necramech arms for Clients. In some cases Clients saw Necramechs dying with both arms attached when in fact they were shoot off and weakspot exposed.
• Fixed some Conservation Lures failing to find a path and possibly creating script errors once activated.
• Fixed an issue with loading screens for Earth and Mars looking incorrect.
• Fixed enemies not targeting the Operator after dying in a Necramech.
• Fixed missing sounds for the Predasite and Vulpaphyla Precepts.
• Fixed the Kymaeros having a description for Alloy Plate and other erroneous descriptions.
• Fixed an issue where Operators could be used to bypass a part of the Heart of Deimos quest.
• Fixed inability to shot for the entire hover duration when in a Necramech.
• Fixed Xaku’s ‘Vast Untime’ damaging Teralysts and Variants. As mentioned at TennoCon, this is not intended.
• Fixed script error when Vizier Predasite dies when attempting to heal.
• Fixed a script error when Inaros’ Devour was cast.
• Fixed a script error on certain item menus appearing during a load state.
• Fixed a crash caused by fishing and catching a fish at the same time a squad member captures an animal.
• Fixed a script error that can occur in the Free Roam mission overlay map after a Host migration.
• Fixed an issue where Operators and Mechs may not work after transference.
• Fixed script error when a Conservation fails.
• Fixed a script error that would occur when killing an enemy, but also reviving an ally when certain Challenges are active.
• Fixed a script error that could occur when the new Deimos enemies did a special attack.
• Fixed a script error that would occur when exiting an Open World mission while your Vasca Kavat was approaching a target for Draining Bite.

Update 29.0

August 25th, 2020 Forum Post - The Heart of Deimos

Heart of Deimos: Update 29

Tenno,

Much awaits you in Update 29: Heart of Deimos. Unveil the secrets of Deimos, Mars' second moon. Discover what has been shrouded in mystery, hidden from the Origin System, and why this Infested moon has revealed itself only now. You may begin your search in the 'Heart of Deimos' Quest, eligible for players who have completed the Earth to Mars Junction.

Tenno beginning their journey in Warframe will now awake to a new cinematic introduction and revised tutorial with the New Player Experience: Tutorial 3.0. If you've already awoken, you too can enjoy the refresh by visiting the Codex in your Orbiter.

Xaku – The community-designed Warframe is here! Meet an amalgam of three fallen Warframes from an age past whose pieces were assembled of the Void and reborn as one: Xaku. They call out to you.

The Helminth has arrived, Warframe's deepest customization system yet. Feed the Helminth to replace your Warframes' Abilities! To begin the feast, you must earn the Helminth Segment from the Entrati Syndicate within the Heart of Deimos.

As with all Mainlines, we cast a huge web of changes. You may find some placeholder and unfinished features as you explore all that Heart of Deimos has to offer - please let us know if you see anything amiss! Within the Entrati Syndicate there of course exists its own economy, of which we welcome your constructive feedback once you’ve delved into its features.

Enjoy the Heart of Deimos, Tenno!

NEW QUEST: HEART OF DEIMOS

Deimos emerges in Martian orbit, completely overrun by the Infestation… yet among the writhing mass, a distress call comes over a most ancient carrier wave.

A new Quest is available in your Codex, Tenno! The Prerequisite for ‘Heart of Deimos’ is completing the Earth to Mars Junction.

The “Heart of Deimos” Quest will introduce you to the newest Open World. Learn all about the denizens of THE CAMBION DRIFT, and the souls lurking in THE NECRALISK HUB!

If you buy Xaku with Platinum, you will receive a Riven Mod as a quest Reward in addition to the Xaku Blueprint.

NEW OPEN WORLD: CAMBION DRIFT

The Cambion Drift is a dense open world on Mars’ infested moon of DEIMOS that connects to the Necralisk, a new Hub (detailed below). Below this Open World you will find an Underground, the second layer. You can find puzzles and mysteries below, as well as Necramech encounters! The Cambion Drift will be made accessible in the Star Chart once you’ve completed the Heart of Deimos quest.

OPEN WORLD CYCLE: VOME VS. FASS

The Infested moon of Deimos is under a constant war between VOME and FASS. As you play, you’ll watch the feuding siblings reclaim dominance over Deimos and its denizens.

Vome - with her gentle watch. Fass - with his spiteful anger.

When Vome wins the sibling battle and watches over the Cambion Drift, formidable Infested enemies will lay dormant and you may come across friendly Necramechs on your travels. When Fass wins the sibling battle and watches over the Cambion Drift, those formidable Infested enemies will rise, and ruined Necramechs will lay silent throughout Cambion Drift. The more you play, the more you’ll discover about their watchful effects!

Beware, Tenno!

NEW HUB: NECRALISK The Necralisk is a Void Research Facility home to the ENTRATI - who you will learn much more about as you play the ‘Heart of Deimos’ Quest. To keep these notes spoiler free, we will simply provide the types of NPC vendors available within the Necralisk! Full services and details can be discovered in game after completing the Heart of Deimos Quest.

NEW SYNDICATES

ENTRATI SYNDICATE

A key part of Heart of Deimos are the Tokens representing each of the Entrati members. These will be your key to progress throughout the ENTRATI Syndicate in order to gain Standing, and by talking to each Vendor and playing Bounties you can discover all there is to earn!

An important distinction from this Open World vs. others is that, due to the nature of the Entrati’s relationships to one another, we are using a symbolic Token system for all Syndicate Standing. As an example, this means by completing Bounties you will earn ‘Mother Tokens’, that you can redeem for Entrati Standing at any time within your Daily Limits. You can always earn more Mother Tokens than your Daily Standing Cap allows, meaning you can accrue and redeem at times convenient for you! (Read on below to see Daily Standing Cap changes!)

Hurl a canister of graviton fluids to create a wide mire that will significantly slow enemies travelling across it. Alternatively, the canister can be shot in mid-air to create a fiery conflagration.

Ability 2: Storm Shroud
Swathe the Necramech in a powerful electrical field that greatly enhances survivability in close combat. Enemies that strike the shroud will suffer for their impudence.

Ability 3: Gravemines
Launch a pattern of charged mines all around you. Each mine detonates in a violent blast when touched, damaging enemies in a three-meter radius.

Ability 4: Guard Mode
Take a stationary stance to deploy maximum firepower and gain increased structural integrity for a time.

Necramech is compatible with Arch Guns with Gravimags installed!

NECRAMECH MODS

These 16 Necramech Mods are a mix of familiar Warframe Mods (Necramech Stretch, Necramech Intensify, Necramech Vitality, etc) as well as new Mod types specifically for the Necramech (Necramech Thrusters, Necramech Blitz, Necramech Refuel, etc).

NEW WEAPONRY: NECRAMECH WEAPONS
Both the Cortege and Mausolon can also be used as Arch Guns!

CORTEGE

An ancient weapon designed by the Entrati for use by their Necramechs. Primary fire siphons life essence from the target to fuel a devastating Alt Fire. A heavy flamethrower with surprising range. Alt fire launches three projectiles in a fan pattern that explode, leaving a damaging area of effect for a short duration.

*Find the Cortege Blueprint as well as its Components from the Necraloid Syndicate.

MAUSOLON (given with first built Necramech)

An ancient weapon designed by the Entrati for use by their Necramechs. Primary fire siphons life essence from the target to fuel a devastating Alt Fire. Punishing automatic primary fire and an alt more that charges up to unleash a destructive beam of energy with a large explosion at point of impact.

*As outlined in a recent Dev Workshop, all new weapons in the update are starting with a minimum Riven disposition of 0.5. This includes the new Archgun weapons, Mausolon and Cortege. Archgun Riven dispositions have not been rebalanced in the past, but they will be included in our quarterly changes going forward, starting with the next Prime Access!

CONSERVATION

VELOCIPOD - LIVING K-DRIVES

Scattered around the Cambion Drift are new passive creatures known as Velocipods. While they are flighty, if you manage to catch one and mount it you can pilot one like a temporary, organic K-Drive! You will be able to shoot from the back of a Velocipod, just like any other K-Drive! You can also choose to Conserve these creatures with the Tranq Rifle you acquired on your journey through Fortuna!

PREDASITE

These Solitary predators return to the same partners each mating season, meeting up in the Swamp. Other times of the year, they disperse across the Cambion Drift. There are three subspecies of Predasites you can encounter in the wild. These subspecies, when captured, can be “Revivificated” into companions at the Conservation Vendor in the Necralisk. Learn more about Predasite companion creation in the “New Infested Companions” section below.

VULPAPHYLA

These scavengers roam in small packs, picking at the remains that larger predators have left behind. There are three subspecies of Vulpaphyla you can encounter in the wild. These subspecies, when captured, can be “Revivificated” into companions at the Conservation Vendor in the Necralisk. Learn more about Vulpaphyla companion creation in the “New Infested Companions” section below.

AVICHAEA

This winged Cambion Drift creature can be found clinging to the walls in groups, or seen flying overhead. A patient approach is best, as they are quick to flee if startled. There are three subspecies of Avichaea you can encounter in the wild.

CRYPTILEX

These burrowing critters can occasionally be found near the Infested plants that grow from the fleshy landscape of the Cambion Drift. There are three subspecies of Cryptilex you can encounter in the wild.

*Each of these species have unique variants - find them all!

INFESTED FISHING

Fishing on an Infested planet has some new challenges! Fish can be found flying (yes, flying) around the Cambion Drift, and come in a variety of flavors. Some fish will only be present during the Fass and Vome cycles and have various rarities!

Bait: Each time Fass and Vome duel in the Cambion Drift, the losing Wyrm’s body will scatter the landscape with its own Residue. Both the Fass Residue and Vome Residue can be picked up and used as Bait for the Infested Fish, using the Fishing Menu! Like with previous fishing systems, drop the Reside into the “water” and wait for the Fish to appear.

See the list of Fish below to learn more about each of the Infested Fish of Deimos and how some Fish only react to certain Residue. Visit the Entrati Syndicate Fishing member within the Necralisk to master the art of Infested Fishing!

Once you have completed the Heart of Deimos Quest, a new vendor will be able to provide you with the Spari Spear, as well as provide a location to turn in Fish for fish parts. The Fish on Deimos are unique creatures, so make sure you have the right equipment!

CAVE FISH:

• Duroid - A living fossil hearkening back to the Orokin era, this elusive fish hides below the surface of Exocrine pools in the deepest caverns it can find.
• Aquapulmo - These fish were purposefully contaminated with the Infestation as an Entrati 'experiment'. They feed off the organic deposits in cave systems.
• Kymaeros - The Infestation has suborned these fish to its own purposes, using them as antibodies in the Exocrine to repel the non-Infested. They swim through the cavernous arteries of Deimos.
• Chondricord - A triumph of Orokin bio-engineering, these hardy fish have adapted to the Deimos environment and seem oddly resistant to Infestation. They thrive in cave environments.
• Vitreospina - Whatever higher functions this fish once had have been consumed, leaving it a mere automaton of metal and flesh. It ekes out a primitive existence in cave systems.
• Barbisteo - As ravenous as the Infestation itself, this fish feeds on the remains of others. It shuns the light, preferring an enclosed cave environment.
• Myxostomata - This exceptionally rare breed of fish is almost extinct, as its gilded Orokin flesh has a special savor for predators. It warily conceals itself in caves.

SURFACE FISH:

• Ostimyr - Crammed with redundant, mutated internal organs, this pungent fish is highly sought after. It only emerges from surface pools in the light of the Wyrm Vome.
• Cryptosuctus - Formerly Orokin scavengers, these fish succumbed to the Infestation long ago and now greedily feast on floating spores. They are found all over the surface of Deimos.
• Glutinox - These hefty fish are cannibalistic. They rise by Vome's light to absorb rare gases, retreating when Fass ascends to devour their smaller kin in their lairs.
• Amniophysi - These fish hatch out of translucent pods formed in the Infested landscape itself. The radiance of Fass stirs them into activity.

NEW INFESTED RESOURCES

HARVESTING THE CAMBION DRIFT

The Cambion Drift has a whole collection of new Resources to earn as you explore and delve into the Heart of Deimos. Unlike the more “natural” Resources of the Plains of Eidolon or the Orb Vallis, the Cambion Drift is a living, breathing landscape with a whole collection of Infested goodies to gather! Visit the Mining Entrati Syndicate member to learn more!

Mining

GEMS

• Faceted Tiametrite - Common
• Purged Dagonic - Common
• Purified Heciphron - Uncommon
• Stellated Necrathene - Rare
• Trapezium Xenorhast - Legendary
• Cabochon Embolos - Legendary

ALLOYS

• Adramal Alloy - Common
• Tempered Bapholite - Common
• Devolved Namalon - Uncommon
• Thaumic Distillate - Rare

NEW INFESTED COMPANIONS - REVIVIFICATION

The Cambion Drift is a hostile world. Even though several native species have adapted to surviving amongst the rampant Infestation, they still fall prey to it and its attacks. The Vulpaphyla and Predasite are no exception and are threatened by its vicious nature. You can save these Conservation creatures by wrangling them from the wild Infested landscape so that they may be treated at the Necralisk hub. There, you can assist in the administering of treatment and “Revivificate” them into Companions.

*Please note Infested Companion Imprints will come in another Update.

Here’s how it works:

1. Capture

First you must tranq and capture a Vulpaphyla or Presadite in a wounded state (creatures affected will have a certain glow to them after they have been wounded by the Infested). You must encounter these creatures while they are infected and tranq it before it loses its battle with the Infested. The captured Vulpaphyla or Presadite is then transported to the Necralisk.

Without intervention, these creatures are likely to succumb to the Infestation. Return to the Necralisk and speak to the Conversation Vendor to treat them with a mix of Mutagens and Antigens to heal it of its ailments.

2. Treat

Visit the Conservation Vendor and select “Vulpaphyla/Presadite Revivification” to get started in restoring the creature. There are three elements that will bring the creature to a restored state so that they may fight alongside you. The options available in these categories will determine the characteristics of your new Infested Companion:

• Breed: The Wounded Vulpaphylas and Presadites you have saved will appear here for selection. The subspecies of the beast determines its physical appearance, base stats, and precepts.
• Mutagen: Adapts the Infestation to grant certain types of resistances. Side effects of the Mutagens include altering of the look of the tail.
• Antigen: Attunes the Infestation to certain polarities (Vazarin, Naramon, Madurai, and Penjaga). Side effects of the Antigen include various physical alterations.

Mutagens and Antigens can be purchased from the Conservation Vendor in Necralisk.

3. Keep or Release

After you have successfully saved the creature, you have the option to either keep or release it. Keeping the creature will make it available as a trusty Companion, while releasing the creature will put it back into the wild for a Standing gain with the Entrati.

NEW INFESTED ENEMIES

The DEIMOS creatures roaming the Cambion Drift feast on anything foolish enough to enter their desolate landscape. Fear the scuttling terror of the Deimos Carnis, the powerful slam of the Deimos Saxum and the subterranean terror of the Deimos Jugulus. With many legs and fearsome appetites, these infested creatures are waiting to devour any unwary Tenno that may cross their path!

NEW GAMEPLAY SYSTEM: THE HELMINTH
REVIEW OUR FULL DEV WORKSHOP HERE: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1212921-the-helminth-dev-workshop

Customize your Warframe’s Abilities at a depth never experienced before in Warframe! Introducing THE HELMINTH.

The Helminth System is an expansion of the Helminth room on your Orbiter - you may only know this room as an infested space that allows you to remove the Helminth Cyst. With the ‘Heart of Deimos’ Update, that’s all changing. The Helminth system enables you to customize your Warframes by infusing new Abilities in place of existing Abilities.

Once you’ve unlocked The Helminth System, you can fast travel to the Helminth Infirmary under the Equipment pause menu!

Deep Dive:

How does it work?

To participate in the Helminth, you must obtain the ‘Helminth Segment’. This is acquired in the Heart of Deimos in the Entrati Syndicate Conservation member (once you are Rank 3 with Entrati) and is then crafted and installed on your Orbiter in the Helminth Room to begin your Helminth journey!

Once ready, there are 2 key things this System offers:

- You can replace 1 Ability per Warframe. - Every Warframe can be Subsumed to permanently provide 1 specific Ability to Helminth.

Who is this for?

We consider this a customization system for very experienced Warframe players (Mastery Rank 8 Prerequisite). We do not intend to let newer players unlock this system. We intentionally placed the Segment deep into progression to ensure only experience players could access the Segment and begin their journey with Helminth.

What are Resources / Secretions?

Virtually every Resource you’ve ever earned can be fed to Helminth - your stockpiles have a new home! This Feeding creates SECRETIONS, which allow you to utilize the Helminth for Ability customization. Helminth has a diverse appetite - make sure you feed Helminth Resources they want to eat to get the best Secretion results! Your choices on what you’ve fed Helminth will determine its willingness to reward secretions - change it up for best results!

Permanent?

Infused Abilities are removable with the click of a button - they will stay within a given Warframe as long as you decide you want it!

Subsuming a Warframe is permanent - only Subsume Warframes you are sure you do not want to play with. You can always re-earn or re-buy a subsumed Warframe.

Do Configurations matter?

You can deeply customize by only replacing Abilities on certain Configurations, as seen in the Demo! But we would like to expand this further to demonstrate just how deep you can go.

You can have 1 different Ability infused PER config!

So if you have Excalibur in the chair - you could put Shock on Configuration A, Molt on Configuration B, and Firewalker on Configuration C!

For example, if you wanted Shock applied to Excalibur on Configuration A but wanted Configuration B and Configuration C to stay default with Slash Dash, you can do so!

What does Ranking Helminth do?

As you feed and use the Helminth system, you will rank up! Each Rank unlocks something different - from a new power, to more Subsume Slots (max Rank Helminth = unlimited Subsume Slots), make sure you progress through the Ranks by regularly Feeding Helminth, Subsuming, and Infusing your Warframes!

What are the Helminth Abilities?

Helminth Provides unique abilities of their own:

"EMPOWER" "Increase the strength of your next Ability use."

“ENERGY MUNITIONS" "Increase the efficiency of your Ammo consumption."

"INFESTED MOBILITY" "Increase your parkour velocity."

"MARKED FOR DEATH" “Stun an enemy; a portion of the next damage you deal to it will be dealt to all enemies around it."

"REBUILD SHIELDS" "Instantly restore your shields."

"PERSPICACITY" "Automatically succeed at your next hack attempt."

"MASTER'S SUMMONS" "Heal your companion and call it to your side."

"EXPEDITE SUFFERING" "Affect enemies in a cone, removing any Bleed and Poison status from them and dealing any remaining damage not yet suffered in a single burst."

What is Subsuming?

In addition to Helminth’s own Abilities, you can Subsume a Warframe to obtain 1 specific Ability permanently in Helminth’s memory (list below). We do not allow the Subsuming of any Prime Warframes, but you can Infuse Abilities on Prime Warframes! Warframes can be Subsumed at any Rank (do not need to be Rank 30).

What is Infusion?

Infusion is the process of injecting a Warframe with an Ability - whether it be one of Helminth’s own, or another Warframes. Every Warframe can receive 1 Infused ability at a time in any Ability slot (i.e you could place Shock on any of the 4 Ability slots).

What is Subsuming?

Subsuming is the act of permanently providing a base Warframe into the Helminth’s biology. 1 Warframe can be subsumed every 24 hours.

What Abilities are earned on Subsuming a Warframe?

The following table outlines the current Ability a given Warframe will provide on the Subsume action.

Why do some Infused Warframe Abilities have these rules?

It was apparent in player feedback and our own play testing that these Infused Warframe Abilities had the potential to be the overwhelming choice; which is not ideal. Instead of changing the Ability outright due to those concerns, we decided to give them slight rules when Infused.

What are my safeguards?

Since you can remove an Ability at any time with the click of a button, you’ll be able to safely experiment with many creative combinations.

For example, if you replace Grendel’s ‘1’, your kit doesn’t really work! If you change around or re-assign Abilities already assigned to Railjack Tactical use, you simply may not have one, or have a new one in its place! If you put Hildryn’s PIllage on Inaros, you don’t get Shields, but you do get diminished Armor/Shields on enemies on cast.

It’s all up to you - have fun experimenting, Tenno!

What about Damage buffing Abilities?

As you can see, we have two Abilities that increase damage: Mirage’s Eclipse, and Rhino’s Roar. We are creating a special case for these Abilities when infused on Warframes with similar Abilities (i.e Chroma, Mirage, Rhino, Octavia). When you infuse these, you will receive a prompt that you can only have 1 Damage Buffing ability at a time, and thus you are limited to replacing said ability type. Which is to say - Damage Buffing abilities can only be swapped with Damage Buffing Abilities on Warframes that already have them. However, that limitation does not apply to the other 30+ Warframes.

What exactly is going on here with the Warframe Subsuming?

Warframes that are Subsumed join the Helminth in an eternal bond. They will live on in a Lotus flower that matches the colours of the Subsumed Warframe, as a permanent honor.

Is ‘Helminth’ a permanent name?

Don’t like it? You can rename your Helminth at any time!

Is Helminth a Cat or Dog ‘Person’?

Well, you’ll find out…

COMMUNITY CREATED WARFRAME: XAKU
Neither he nor she, Xaku is a composite…. A Warframe assembly made of others lost in the early Entrati Void expeditions. Xaku has mastered this power of the Void to terrify and bewilder their adversaries.

Created by the community in the Community Created Warframe project from theme to aesthetic to Abilities. Xaku’s concept art was made by community fan artist Eornheit!

Since XAKU is a community Warframe, we will be doing a concerted second Phase of ability tweaks that is based on feedback on all platforms to ensure there are revisions from the community’s experiences. We will discuss this in a Dev Workshop as we get your feedback on our desks!

PASSIVE

25% chance for incoming weapon damage to pass through Xaku completely.

XATA’S WHISPER

Wield Void Damage for all attacks from equipped weapons when activated.

GRASP OF LOHK

Void Tendrils steal weapons from nearby enemies to use as your own floating, auto-targeting armament.

THE LOST

Cycle through and cast one of the three abilities originating from the Warframes that make up Xaku: Accuse, Gaze, and Deny. Cycle through them by tapping, and hold to cast.

ACCUSE - Create a radial fissure for a limited time that corrupts enemies who walk within its radius to fight alongside Xaku.

GAZE - Xaku releases a scream of the many voices within to lock up to two target enemies in place with a Void tendrils cage. Enemies who enter the radius of the trapped victims will have their Armor or Shields reduced.

DENY - Xaku fires a beam that deals Void damage and can clear Sentient damage resistances. Enemies that survive the blow are suspended in the air.

THE VAST UNTIME

Temporarily shed the outer pieces of Xaku in a destructive blast, then stalk the battlefield in a new swifter skeletal form. Enemies damaged by the body shrapnel are rendered weaker to Void damage. While Xaku is in their skeletal form, they have 75% damage reduction and increased mobility. Recast at any time to bring Xaku back together again.

• Similarly to Equinox, a toggle is available in the Arsenal to see Xaku in their “The Vast Untime” form.

XAKU COLLECTION

Xaku arrives from the Void as a strange and enigmatic new force. Includes the Xaku Warframe, Xaku Kintsu Helmet, Artifex Syandana, and Quassus Warfan. Also includes 3-Day Affinity and Credit Boosters.

XAKU KINTSU ALT HELMET

Xaku cuts a unique profile in this distinctive Alt Helmet assembled from the remains of several other, less fortunate Warframes. Concept art and sculpt of the Xaku Kintsu Alt Helmet was made by community TennoGen Artist Faven.

ARTIFEX SYANDANA

This techno-organic Syandana fits over the shoulder, giving your Warframe a unique spiked silhouette. A signature Syandana for Xaku. Concept art for the Artifex Syandana was made by community fan artist Karu.

QUASSUS

Flick away the enemy with this heavy Warfan. The Quassus scatters ethereal daggers that are even more deadly accurate when wielded by Xaku, their signature weapon. Concept art for the Quassus Warfan was made by fan artist Kedemel.

*Find the Quassus in the Market or the Blueprint in Entrati Bounties.

NEW PLAYER EXPERIENCE: REVAMPED TUTORIAL

Tenno beginning their journey in Warframe will now awake to a new cinematic introduction and revised Tutorial.

Warframe’s new Tutorial continues the story introduced in the cinematic directed by Dan Trachtenberg. Elements that have become central to Warframe’s core gameplay, like bullet jumping, are now part of the tutorial. Traverse the Plains of Eidolon to escape Captain Vor and begin your quest to uncover forgotten memories!

*Tenno who have already played through the Tutorial can play through the refreshed version by visiting the Codex Quest section under a new name ‘Awakening’ (also replayable)!

K-Drive Changes

For a while, we have received periodic requests to make weapons functional on K-Drives, and as a result, we have made Secondary Weapons usable while you glide in style! Please note that weapons are only usable when your K-Drive is on the ground, and will be stowed when jumping, doing flips, grinding, and other glinty maneuvers!

Mounting your K-Drive will appear as normal until you press the binding to equip your Secondary (default F key). Press again to put it away and do those sick moves.

NEW K-DRIVE MODS

With the expansion of K-Drive functionality, we have introduced some new K-Drive Mods for you to use! Roky in Fortuna will have all of these new wares to exchange for Ventkids Standing, so make sure you pay the Ventkids a visit!

Daily Standing Cap Changes

Daily Standing Cap changes have been made to grant a higher cap at each Mastery Rank. Upon starting Warframe at MR0, your Daily Standing Cap will start at 8500 and increase at more gradual increments per Mastery Rank. You will also now have access to a larger Daily Standing Cap at each Mastery Rank than in the previous system! This will take effect next Daily Reset.

Mission Summary/End of Mission Screen Changes & Fixes

• Reordered various Rewards in the End of Mission screen:
  • Syndicate Medallions now appear above Mods and Resources.
  • Mods now always appear above Resources of the same rarity.
• Removed the sort by ‘Type’ since sorting by ‘Importance’ already does that in a more logical way.
• Updated the Conclave and Index scoreboard window with the new End of Mission screen style.
• Added “hide” button to the top left corner of the Mission Summary and End of Mission screen. Hover over the “eye” icon to hide the mission summary UI to get a clear shot of your surroundings if needed while reviewing stats mid-mission. This icon also removes the UI overal from the Warframe diorama in the backdrop in the End of Mission screen. Now you can take screenshots of your squad looking really really cool.
• The exit button will now pulse when it’s available upon returning to your Orbiter.
• Squad overlay now appears on the End of Mission results/screen in mission and after returning to the Orbiter.
• Pausing Warframe while previewing Mission results (Tab) now closes the Mission results before opening the Pause screen to avoid overlapping UI.
• We’ve added more Medals to the End of Mission screen related to:
  • Life support Capsules and Modules / Excavator Powercells found
  • Healing done
