Arcane Enhancements are special items that can be installed on certain equipment to grant them buffs that can be activated by achieving certain conditions within a mission. There are several major types of Arcanes that can be applied to their own dedicated set of items. Arcanes can be freely installed and will not be destroyed if they're unequipped or replaced by other Arcanes.

Arcane rarity is indicated by the color and design complexity of the Arcane. Common Arcanes are Bronze, Uncommon are Silver, Rare are Gold, and Legendary are Platinum. The higher ranks are denoted by the higher number of connectors on the bottom and the higher number of chevrons on the top of their individual icons.

Mechanics[]

U27 — An Arcane with refreshable duration icon

Arcanes are activated by accomplishing its trigger condition (e.g. landing a Critical Hit, or taking damage, etc.), which will then have a percentage chance to activate the stated effect. If an Arcane's effect has a limited duration and is refreshable, the duration can be renewed by triggering it again.

Application[]

A total of two Arcanes can be equipped on each Warframe, Operator, and Operator Amps (however, in the case of Warframes when an Arcane Helmet is used only a single Arcane can be equipped alongside). A maximum of one Arcane can be equipped on all weapons, while Zaw and Kitgun Arcanes occupy a unique slot separate from Primary/Secondary/Melee Arcanes. Archwing weapons have no Arcanes, and thus no slots.

They can be installed through their respective upgrade screens for the item. Arcanes can be upgraded in the Orbiter's Arcane Segment located between the Mod and Incubator Segments, which becomes available after acquiring an Arcane, or while equipping one in the Arsenal. Rank insignia of an Arcane will be visible below its name, denoting how many upgrades it has undergone.

Much like Mods, Arcanes can be equipped across multiple items, though they have a unique progress bar of their own to the right of the Foundry selection. Similarly, duplicate Arcanes cannot be equipped on the same item.

Warframe's Exalted Weapons and Sentinel's Robotic Weapons cannot equip Primary, Secondary, or Melee Arcanes.

Rank[]

An Arcane can be ranked up by sacrificing duplicate unranked Arcanes of the same type, increasing their effects. This can be done inside the Orbiter:

ESC > EQUIPMENT > ARCANES

Every successive rank-up requires one more Arcane than the previous one. The maximum rank of an Arcane depends on its type:

Arcanes required:	Rank 0	Rank 1	Rank 2	Rank 3	Rank 4	Rank 5
Exodia, Virtuos, Pax, and Residual	All Warframe, Primary, Secondary, Melee, Operator, and Eternal Arcanes
- in Total	1	3	6	10	15	21
- for next Rank	-	+2	+3	+4	+5	+6

Dissolution[]

Following completion of the Whispers in the Walls quest, Loid offers his services for Arcane Dissolution. Unwanted Arcanes can be dissolved into Vosfor which can be traded back to Loid in exchange for randomly selected Arcanes from a collection of choice. All collections cost 200 and 50,000 Credits to purchase.

Warframe Arcanes[]

Arcane[]

Warframe Arcanes, simply referred to as Arcane, were originally introduced with Trials, namely The Law of Retribution in Update 16.0 (2015-03-19) and The Jordas Verdict in Update 17.9.1 (2015-10-29). However, Trials have since been retired in Update 22.14 (2018-03-01).

In Hotfix 22.13.2 (2018-02-16), they were permanently added to Eidolon Teralysts, Gantulysts, and Hydrolysts drops from either killing or capturing them. Captures will yield more exquisite rewards than simply killing them; for example, killing a Teralyst will only yield common Arcanes while capturing it will yield a higher chance to drop the more uncommon ones.
Update 29.10 (2021-03-19) permanently added the Orphix mission to the game, with all Eidolon Arcanes available through Rotation C.
Hotfix 25.7.6 (2019-09-18) introduced five Warframe Arcanes ( Arcane Blade Charger, Arcane Bodyguard, Arcane Pistoleer, Arcane Primary Charger, and Arcane Tanker), exclusive to Arbitrations.
Update 32.2 (2022-11-30) introduced two Warframe Arcanes ( Arcane Blessing and Arcane Rise), exclusive to Conjunction Survival.
Update 32.3 (2023-02-15) introduced two Warframe Arcanes ( Arcane Double Back and Arcane Steadfast), exclusive to Mirror Defense.
Update 33.0 (2023-04-26) introduced two Warframe Arcanes ( Arcane Reaper and Arcane Intention), exclusive to Duviri.
Update 33.5 (2023-06-21) introduced one Warframe Arcane ( Arcane Power Ramp), exclusive to Duviri.
Update 36.0 (2024-06-18) introduced two Warframe Arcanes ( Arcane Battery and Arcane Ice Storm), exclusive to Ascension.

Raw Data[]

Main article: Module:Arcane/data

For a community-contributed list of Arcanes in WARFRAME, see Module:Arcane/data.

Notes[]

The benefits of Arcane Enhancements do not always carry over to Archwing mode if players have an Arcane enhanced item equipped on their active loadout's Warframe.
The number of Arcanes $A$ required for rank $n$ follows the sequence of triangular numbers given by: $A = \frac{(n + 1) (n + 2)}{2}$
Arcanes that are physically dropped by enemies are considered a Mod drop, and are thus affected by The Steel Path and Mod Drop Chance Boosters.
Because they are dropped as mystery items in the form of a Mod item, Arcanes dropped by Acolytes in The Steel Path will be sucked up and permanently destroyed by Scavenger Drones. The Steel Essence will be picked up, but will be dropped on death however.
Primary passives do not apply to Secondary weapons. Similarly Secondary passives do not apply to Primary weapons.
Trading Legendary-grade Arcanes ( Arcane Barrier, Arcane Grace, Arcane Energize, Arcane Reaper, Longbow Sharpshot, Secondary Shiver) require the player to be Mastery Rank 11.

Trivia[]

Before Update 24.6 (2019-04-04), Magus, Virtuos and Exodia Arcanes in Cetus are purchasable as blueprints, requiring time and resources to build in addition to standing.
- Built Arcanes can be traded between players, however Arcane blueprints cannot.

Patch History[]

Update 36.0 (2024-06-18)

New Arcanes

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

Stats below are shown at max rank.

Arcane Ice Storm (Warframe)

On Enemy Frozen: Gain +2% Ability Strength and +2% Ability Duration for 15s. Stacks up to 20x.

Arcane Battery (Warframe)

Gains 0.30 maximum Energy per Armor point, up to 1000 Energy.

Secondary Surge (Secondary)

On Ability Cast: Next shot gains a Damage Multiplier for every 200 current Energy, up to x8.

Secondary Fortifier (Secondary)

Gain 1 Overguard for every 100 Damage dealt to an enemy’s Overguard. Deals x8 Extra Damage to Overguard.

Melee Afflictions (Melee)

Enemies affected by Status Effects gain 6 additional stacks when they're knocked down or flung by melee attacks.

General Additions

Added the Cavia Arcane Collection to Loid’s “Arcane Dissolution” Offerings - this Collection has a chance at the following Arcanes:
- Melee Fortification
- Melee Retaliation
- Melee Animosity
- Melee Exposure
- Melee Influence
- Melee Vortex
- Melee Crescendo
- Melee Duplicate

General Changes

Trading Legendary Arcanes now requires you to be Mastery Rank 11.
- It’s important to note that only the player trading requires MR 11 and not the receiver.
  - We needed to address an issue with exploitative Legendary Arcanes farming and ban-evasion account creation used to trade Legendary Arcanes. Other options we experimented with had the risk of innocent players getting caught in the crossfire of the ban-evasion subjects. When we took a look at Trading stats we found that a very small number of players below Mastery Rank 10 trade Legendary Arcanes, and therefore decided to go this route. This is purely a means of deterring the bad actors and ensuring legitimate trading for players.

OPTIMIZATIONS

Fixed performance issues caused by placing a Warframe Articula that is using a Loadout that has the Melee Retaliation Arcane equipped.
Optimized the Melee Duplicate and Exodia Force Arcanes to help prevent performance lag.

FIXES

Fixed the Arcane Dissolution Packs in Loid’s Sanctum Anatomica offerings using the incorrect icons.
Fixed the Melee Influence Arcane breaking the holding and holster animations for Tonfa skins.

Hotfix 35.5.1 (2024-03-27)

Fixed a script error when sorting by Owned/Rarity in the Arcane list accessed from the Upgrade screen (this was causing a loss of function).

Update 35.5 (2024-03-27)

Fixed the grid in the Arcane Dissolution screen not displaying correctly when you open it for the first time.

Update 35.1 (2024-02-20)

Fixed certain Arcanes (including but not limited to: Arcane Victory, Arcane Avenger, and Arcane Grace) having “0” in their Buff icons instead of the actual stat.
Fixed Melee Animosity no longer functioning after activating and deactivating Titania’s Razorwing.
Fixed Melee Animosity not triggering on Glave hits while dual wielding with Secondary weapon.
Fixed Melee Influence’s buffs applying to clones spawned from Warframe abilities (ex: Mirage’s Hall of Mirror clones).
- While this has been a popular combination, it has also been the source of many severe performance issues that can crash players. We have removed this interaction in the name of stability for the game.
Fixed Primary and Melee Arcanes being triggered by Secondary Weapons while on K-Drive/Merulina.
Fixed Melee Influence being triggered by Dual Ichor Incarnon’s Toxin fields.
- Melee Influence is intended to trigger “On Melee Electricity Status” and not from secondary effects (as they are not considered direct Melee hits). Since the Toxin fields deal damage independently of Melee attacks, it does not meet the Arcane’s criteria of triggering only if the Electricity Status originates from the weapon in hand.
Fixed a combination of Magus Aggress and the Tenacious Bond Mod (when equipped on both Khora’s Venari and Companion) causing buff icons to disappear.
Fixed a crash caused by Status Effects spreading from Melee Influence.
Fixed Arcanes that have “on kill” effects (such as Primary Merciless) being triggered all at once upon entering a Rampart Turret.

Hotfix 35.0.7 (2024-01-09)

Arcanes offerings from Vendors are now displayed as unranked.
- Hovering over the Arcane will now display both its unranked and max rank stats. This is to help avoid players thinking they are buying a fully ranked Arcane.

Update 35.0 (2023-12-13)

ARCANE DISSOLUTION

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

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

HOW TO PERFORM ARCANE DISSOLUTION

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

Step 2: Select the “Dissolve Arcanes” button

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

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

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

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

ARCANE PACKS

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

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

MELEE UPGRADE SEGMENT

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

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

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

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

NEW MELEE ARCANES

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

The stats below are shown at Max Rank.

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

Melee Duplicate (Legendary) On Base Critical Hits: 100% chance for your attack to strike a second time.

*Base Critical Hits (yellow by default) are all critical hits that are not “big” (orange by default) or “super” (red by default).
