Acquisition[]
Obtainable from the Arbitrations vendor in the Arbiters of Hexis room in Relays for 30  Vitus Essence.

Notes[]
The bonus only applies to the Starting Energy of a Warframe when entering a mission and respawning/reviving from death.
Starting Energy = Initial Energy + (5 × Free Mod Capacity) + (Total Energy × Mod Multiplier)
Example: A rank 30  Wisp equipped with  Primed Flow has a Total Energy pool of 850 and a preset Initial Energy of 150. Let's say she has 9 Free (or available) Mod Capacity. When equipped with a rank 4 Preparation mod (+45%, or x0.45), the Warframe will have 150 + (5 * 9) + (850 * 0.45) = 577.5 Starting Energy.
Example 2: The same setup but with a rank 8 Preparation mod (+82%, or x0.82), the Warframe will have 150 + (5 * 9) + (850 * 0.82) = 892 Starting Energy. In this example, the surplus is effectively lost as it surpasses the 850 Max Energy cap.
As per the second example, higher ranks of this mod are redundant.
Between rank 4 and rank 6 of this mod, the increase seems to be around 9.5% instead of the linear 9% from other ranks. This makes a rank 5 Preparation actually grant a 54.5% bonus from Total Energy.
This is because the max effect of this mod (100% of energy capacity filled) is not evenly divisible by 11 mod ranks. Mods do not display values in the decimal places.
As  Harrow already spawns into missions with 100% starting energy because of his Passive, he has no need for this mod.
Does not work on Arenas (Index, Rathuum), not even when re-spawning after death.
Falling out of bounds and reappearing does not count as spawning for the purposes of this mod.
Tips[]
It's recommended at lower-than-max rank on Warframes with high Energy capacity and average Initial Energy.
The bonus can apply to Sevagoth's Exalted Shadow each time he is summoned.
If equipped on your Warframe the mod will apply to your Archwing's initial energy during Archwing missions.
