WispIcon272 Wisp weaves between dimensions whilst she is airborne, gaining a cloak that renders her and her Companions completely invisible to enemies indefinitely until she lands or fires a weapon. Wisp's cloak will reactivate briefly after the player stops firing provided they are still airborne.

  • The cloak does not wear off immediately after landing, allowing Wisp to constantly remain invisible.
  • Silenced weapons will still remove her invisibility.
  • Invisibility is not affected by Melee weapon strikes, allowing Wisp to freely use them without making her visible.
  • Unlike other invisible abilities, Wisp does not turn transparent. Instead she visually glows and emits energy particles that are affected by her chosen Energy color.

Info

  • Birthed from Wisp's dimensional habitat, three species of Reservoir pods nursing friendly Motes can be selectively summoned by Wisp. Tap the ability key to freely cycle the selection wheel between the Vitality, Haste, and Shock reservoirs. Hold down the ability key to summon the selected reservoir from a portal above Wisp for EnergyOrb25 energy, placing the pod directly in front of her. The reservoir pods have a range of AbilityRangeBuff5 meters and last indefinitely, while the motes retrieved from the pods lasts AbilityDurationBuff19 / 22/ 26 / 30 seconds while outside of the reservoirs. Wisp can summon a maximum of 6 reservoir pods.
    • Casting additional reservoir pods will replace the oldest pod.
    • Up to three different reservoir types can be unlocked as the ability is ranked up:
      • Vitality: unlocked by default (Unranked Warframe)
      • Haste: unlocked at rank 1 (Warframe Rank 7)
      • Shock: unlocked at rank 2 (Warframe Rank 14)
    • Reservoir selection wheel is displayed above the ability icons. The icon for the currently selected type is enlarged and shown on the left of the wheel. Tapping the ability key (default 1 ) will cycle between the reservoir types, while holding the key will deploy the selected reservoir (tap/hold functions can be inverted in the Settings).
  • Reservoir pods are invulnerable static floating objects that are permanently placed until removed by Wisp or by colliding with Nullifier Crewman bubbles.
  • Each reservoir pod spawns a floating Mote above it, which can be plucked an infinite amount of times by Wisp, other Warframes, Companions, summoned allied units such as Specters and Railjack Crews, allied Invasion units, Hostages, converted Liches and Sisters, Kavor Defectors, Sortie and Arbitrations Defense Operatives, and Defense Objects coming into the reservoir's range.
    • This includes at least some allies spawned via Warframe abilities such as NidusIcon272 Nidus's Maggots via his Ravenous130xWhite Ravenous ability.
    • Motes attach to the entity that plucked them, floating in orbit and following their target wherever they go.
  • Motes grant the affected entity a specialized buff based on the reservoir type.
  • Motes respawn from their reservoirs after a brief cooldown if taken by an entity.
  • Motes last for a duration, with their timers able to be refreshed and paused indefinitely while the buffed entities are standing in range of the respective reservoir type.
  • Reservoir pods take on Wisp's Ability Strength when placed, and will remain at that Ability Strength percentage indefinitely.
  • If there are multiple reservoir pods, the pod with the highest buff value will take effect, with its corresponding duration.
    • A lower-value pod will still refresh the duration of a higher-value pod.
  • Each entity is limited to 1 active Mote buff per reservoir type.
  • The Vitality Mote increases maximum Health by AbilityStrengthBuff300 and restores AbilityStrengthBuff30 health per second.
  • Vitality Mote appears made of Infested flesh and sinew, shaped similar to a beetle shell with a red U-shaped crown.
  • Vitality Reservoir appears as a three-petalled plant with a red crown at its base. It constantly emits a flame-like energy particle effect.
  • The Haste Mote increases Movement Speed and melee Attack Speed by AbilityStrengthBuff20% and Fire Rate by AbilityStrengthBuff30%.
  • Haste Mote appears made of Infested flesh and sinew, shaped similar to a beetle shell with a green oval-shaped crown.
  • Haste Reservoir appears as a three-petalled plant with a green crown at its base. It constantly emits a liquid-like energy particle effect.
  • The Shock Mote stores an electrical charge that zaps up to 5 enemies within AbilityRangeBuff15 meters with chain lightning every 3 seconds, dealing AbilityStrengthBuff10 DmgElectricitySmall64 Electricity damage with a guaranteed Status Effect to stun enemies.
    • The electric charge shows as electricity surging around the Shock Mote when ready to discharge.
  • Shock Mote appears made of Infested flesh and sinew, shaped similar to a beetle shell with a blue hammer-like crown.
  • Shock Reservoir appears as a three-petalled plant with a blue crown at its base. It constantly emits an electrical spark particle effect.
    • Ability Synergy:
      • Casting BreachSurge130xWhite Breach Surge on an active reservoir pod will teleport Wisp to its location and double Breach Surge's range.
        • Targeting a reservoir pod with the reticle will encircle it with Wisp's chosen energy color to indicate Breach Surge's ability to be cast on it and can be used at any range, provided there is line of sight.
        • Reservoir pods can be targeted through solid surfaces provided there is vision of them (e.g. windows).
        • Wisp cannot teleport to a pod while within less than 10 meters of it.
      • Currently obtained Motes provide additional properties to SolGate130xWhite Sol Gate.
        • Vitality: Provides a 25% damage increase.
        • Haste: Allows Sol Gate to deal DmgCorrosiveSmall64 Corrosive procs on every damage instance.
        • Shock: Provides a 25% damage increase.

    FusedReservoirMod
    Main article: Fused Reservoir

    Fused Reservoir is a Warframe Augment Mod/Exilus Mod for WispIcon272 Wisp that allows her to spawn a fourth Reservoirs130xWhite Reservoir with all three buffs at an increased energy cost.

    Fused Reservoir

    Tips & Tricks

    • Avoid using Shock Motes in Spy missions, as it can hit Grineer Sensor Regulators and alert them.
    • Because motes will refresh the duration of any other mote buff (regardless of power), you can make very effective use of temporary Ability Strength buffs such as Growing Power, Energy Conversion, or (especially) the power increase from a Void Fissure mission. You can put down reservoirs while under these effects, acquire more powerful reservoir buffs, and then endlessly refresh their duration using regular-strength reservoirs. This makes any buff to power strength effectively infinite in duration, so long as you do not let your reservoir buffs expire (or get nullified).
      • Similarly, if there are multiple Wisps in a mission, they can space their reservoirs out to effectively gain all the buff benefits of the strongest Wisp, while also increasing the area covered.

    Misc: 3 s (teleport invulnerability time)

    Info

    • Wisp expends EnergyOrb35 energy to fade between dimensions, cloaking herself and her Companion from enemy eyes while spawning a spectral copy of herself that flies toward the last position of the reticle when activated. The spectral clone draws the attention and fire from nearby enemies. Wisp's cloak and clone both last for AbilityDurationBuff2.5 / 3 / 3.5 / 4 seconds.
    • Casting the ability again while the clone is traveling will dissipate the cloak and clone, then instantly teleport Wisp to its location. Wisp gains invulnerability for 3 seconds after teleportation.
      • Tap the ability key (default 2 ) to summon a slow moving clone. Hold down the ability key to summon a fast moving clone, then instantly teleport to it upon releasing the button.
    • Ability Synergy:
      • Wil-O-Wisp spectral clone plucks motes from the Reservoirs130xWhite Reservoirs it passes through during its lifetime.
      • Casting BreachSurge130xWhite Breach Surge while the spectral clone is traveling creates a second breach expansion around the clone.
      • Can be cast while SolGate130xWhite Sol Gate is active to cloak, spawn a clone and teleport to it when desired.
    • Spectral clone is a flying object that attempts to continue its path when colliding with terrain.
      • Clone is capable of opening doors when in proximity.
    • Spectral clone is visually surrounded by flowing light particles and leaves an energy trail where it travels.

    Tips & Tricks

    • Using this ability, Wisp is able to open Friendship Doors alone.
    • The decoy can go through Spy laser barriers without tripping them, allowing Wisp to deploy the decoy through it and then teleport past it. However, the decoy can still be seen by guards.

    Subsumable to Helminth

    Info

    • Wisp expends EnergyOrb50 energy to collapse a portal into an energy explosion that rapidly expands over a AbilityRangeBuff11 / 13 / 16 / 18 meter radius area around the cast location. Enemies in direct Line of Sight of Wisp and within range are RadialBlind130xDark Blinded by the surge for AbilityDurationBuff7 / 9 / 12 / 16 seconds. Blinded enemies have a 10% chance when damaged or 100% chance when killed to release a surge spark in the form of a homing projectile that seeks the head of another enemy within 10 meters, dealing DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation damage equal to the damage dealt to the surged enemy, then amplified by a damage multiplier of AbilityStrengthBuff1 / 1.25 / 1.6 / 2 and AbilityStrengthBuff20% status chance.
      • Surge sparks have 100% critical chance and a 1.5x critical multiplier. Sparks can score and benefit from headshots due to their homing properties.
      • Sparks are affected by Mod TT 20px Vigorous Swap, ArcaneArachne Arcane Arachne, abilities such as Eclipse130xWhite Eclipse and RiftSurge130xWhite Rift Surge augmented with Mod TT 20px Rift Torrent.
      • Blinded enemies are susceptible to stealth damage bonus, but are not vulnerable to melee finishers.
      • Enemies with Overguard will be affected by the Breach Surge, but will not be blinded and will not release sparks. If their Overguard is removed, they will be blinded and release sparks normally.
      • Surge sparks will attempt to home in on a nearby enemy during flight. Without a target to strike, surge sparks randomly impact onto a nearby surface and explode.
      • Surge sparks cannot be created by a kill made by another surge spark.
    • Ability Synergy:
      • Casting on Reservoirs130xWhite Reservoirs will teleport Wisp to their location and double Breach Surge's range.
        • Targeting a reservoir pod with the reticle will encircle it with Wisp's chosen energy color to indicate Breach Surge's ability to be cast on it and can be used at any range, provided there is line of sight.
        • Reservoir pods can be targeted through solid surfaces provided there is vision of them (e.g. windows).
        • Wisp cannot teleport to a pod while within less than 10 meters of it.
      • Casting Breach Surge while WilOWisp130xWhite Wil-O-Wisp's clone is traveling will create a second surge around the clone.
        • Casting on Reservoirs will also double the range of the cast created by the clone.
      • SolGate130xWhite Sol Gate's solar plasma beam has a 100% chance to trigger a surge spark on every hit.
    • Can be recast while active to blind new targets and refresh duration on previously blinded enemies in range.
    • Casting Breach Surge is a full-body animation that restricts all actions except directional movement.
    • Wisp visually conjures a sphere of dimensional energy and forcibly collapses it to release the energy explosion. Enemies blinded by the explosion have an orb of blinding light scorch their eyes for the duration of the debuff.
    • Energy explosion, blinding light, and surge sparks are affected by Wisp's chosen Energy colors.
    • Subsuming Wisp to the Helminth will offer Breach Surge and its augments to be used by other Warframes.

    Info

    • Wisp tears open and sustains a portal to the sun to harness its destructive power. While sustaining the portal, Wisp focuses the solar plasma into a single beam with curving flares over a length of AbilityRangeBuff40 meters; the beam possesses infinite Punch Through against enemy bodies, and inflicts AbilityStrengthBuff1,000 / 1,100 / 1,250 / 1,500 DmgFireSmall64 Heat and DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation damage per half seconds with a ?% status chance to all enemies it contacts. Each enemy that receives damage from the beam becomes more vulnerable to it, with beam damage increasing by 50% per half second up to a maximum of 500% damage bonus per damage instance. Press the ability key (default 4 ) while active to deactivate this ability.
      • Wisp recoils backward when the ability deactivates.
    • Holding the fire button (default LMB ) increases the beam's damage to AbilityStrengthBuff2,000 / 2,200 / 2,500 / 3,000, status chance to ?%, and damage ramp-up per half second to 100% up to a maximum of 1,000% damage bonus. Wisp's movement speed is slowed by 50% while boosting Sol Gate.
    • Sol Gate expends EnergyOrb25 energy to activate, then consumes EnergyOrbAbilityDurationBuff12 energy per second (EnergyOrbAbilityDurationBuff24 energy per second during the boosted version) while active and will remain active until Wisp's energy is depleted, or the ability is deactivated by pressing the ability key again.
    • Ability Synergy:
      • Currently obtained Motes from Reservoirs130xWhite Reservoirs provide additional properties to Sol Gate.
        • Vitality: Provides a 25% damage increase.

      • Has a 100% chance to trigger BreachSurge130xWhite Breach Surge's surge spark.
    • Wisp cannot cast Reservoirs or Breach Surge, perform parkour Maneuvers or sprinting except dodge rolls, or other general interactions while channeling this ability.
    • Wisp is immune to knockdown while channeling this ability.
    • Energy beams, energy particles, and energy surge color tinting are affected by Wisp's chosen Warframe energy color.
