Weapons[]

These weapons deal more than a majority of their physical damage as DmgPunctureSmall64 Puncture. The damage ratio is important for physical damage status effects because the game weights the likelihood of which proc occurs according to physical damage ratio. Hence, these weapons proc Weakened more than Stagger or Bleed.

Info

  • Excalibur expends EnergyOrb75 Energy to summon javelins against enemies within a radius of AbilityRangeBuff15 / 18 / 22 / 25 meters. Excalibur then drives his weapon into the ground, launching the javelins into their targets. Each javelin inflicts AbilityStrengthBuff500 / 650 / 800 / 1000 damage evenly distributed between DmgImpactSmall64 Impact, DmgPunctureSmall64 Puncture, and DmgSlashSmall64 Slash, with a guaranteed DmgSlashSmall64 Slash proc and RollingDroneAvatar Stagger.
    • While javelins do not punch through objects or enemies, their striking position is optimized to ensure a successful hit on their targets when they spawn. This allows the javelins to bypass obstacles in the environment including walls, cover, and Grineer Shield Lancer shields.
    • Radial Javelin will not target enemies behind obstacles in the environment unless Excalibur has line of sight, or unless the enemy is aware of Excalibur within a short period of time (e.g., an enemy that spots Excalibur and runs out of view can still be targeted by Radial Javelin if the ability is used within a small time frame).
  • Each javelin appears as an ethereal Skana Skana. Excalibur PrimeIcon272 Excalibur Prime and Excalibur UmbraIcon272 Excalibur Umbra javelins appear as ethereal SkanaPrime Skana Primes and "Umbra" Javelins respectively.

Misc:

100 m (cast range)400 SP (Decoy shields)200 HP (Decoy health)? % (physical status chances)

1 (limit of decoys)

Subsumable to Helminth

Info

  • Loki expends EnergyOrb25 energy to create a holographic decoy within a range of 100 meters at the location on the aiming reticle. With heightened Threat Level, 400 Shield and 200 Health points increased by AbilityStrengthBuff15% of all enemy shields and health within AbilityRangeBuff15 meters of the decoy when cast, the decoy will draw enemy fire and last for a maximum of AbilityDurationBuff7 / 15 / 20 / 25 seconds or until destroyed by enemy attacks.
    • The decoy wields a Lato Lato (LexPrime Lex Prime in Loki PrimeIcon272 Loki Prime's case), with which it is capable of inflicting DmgImpactSmall64 Impact, DmgPunctureSmall64 Puncture, and DmgSlashSmall64 Slash Status Effects.
      • The decoy's shots do not inflict damage. However, they still count as hits for purposes such as ArcaneStrike Arcane Strike.
    • Only 1 decoy can be available at a time. Deploying a new decoy while one is already active will remove the previous decoy from the field.
    • If enough damage is done to the decoy, it will collapse and disappear.
  • If aimed at a ceiling or the sky, the decoy will appear directly below the aimed point, allowing it to be placed in higher platforms.
  • If placed in a position where enemies cannot reach:
    • Within a few seconds Infested enemies will swap their aggro to another target.
    • Grineer and Corpus enemies will keep trying to aim at the Decoy until it disappears even if they cannot see or hit it, making it extremely effective if placed in good cover against enemy fire.
  • Decoy has a tendency to fall through certain props on the map. This means a decoy can be placed on top of something, for example: a pillar, and it will sometimes fall through it, being protected from within the prop.
  • Decoy's shields regenerate over time.
  • Has a cast time of ~0.6 seconds.
  • Subsuming Loki to the Helminth will offer Decoy and its augments to be used by other Warframes.

Savior Decoy is a Warframe Augment Mod for LokiIcon272 Loki that allows Decoy130xWhite Decoy to absorb any fatal damage dealt to the player before switching places, along with passively increasing Decoy's Casting Speed.

Savior Decoy

Tips & Tricks

  • Enemies will focus on the decoy if it is deployed closer to them than Loki is, allowing Loki to deal heavy damage or escape an area without being targeted.
  • Decoy's defenses do not increase at higher levels or with Ability Strength, making it very weak at high levels if not placed in cover.
  • Decoy130xWhite Decoy can be used in conjunction with SwitchTeleport130xWhite Switch Teleport, essentially allowing teleportation to any point where Decoy can be placed. It should be noted that sometimes there is no switch and loki is just teleporting close to decoy, so careful placing is required sometimes.
  • The hologram blocks lasers from Laser Barriers, allowing passage through when deployed directly on top of them (as they only emit from one side).
  • Decoy can be used as means to find or lure out hiding enemies.
    • The copy will only start firing its Lato if there is an enemy close enough to be attracted, but it will not stop firing once all affected enemies are dead. Keep this in mind when using Decoy to scout enemy locations.
  • Can also be used to hold doors open, which can be useful when the following area is full of enemies, allowing players to engage them from a safer distance.
  • LimboIcon272 Limbo can put the decoy in the rift, making it completely invincible against enemies not also in the rift, although this eliminates its ability to apply procs on enemies.
  • Can obtain bonus shielding from Shield Osprey Specters, adding some shielding while increasing the shield recharge rate and delay of the decoy. The Specter will also automatically prioritize targets like Decoy to protect, just like it will prioritize following other specters. Note that the osprey is terribly weak, and the decoy will attract heavy fire, making the possibility of the specter dying quickly much higher.

Info

  • Oberon expends EnergyOrb25 energy to smite an enemy target with hallowed light up to AbilityRangeBuff20 / 30 / 40 / 50 meters away, dealing AbilityStrengthBuff150 / 200 / 300 / 500 damage distributed evenly between DmgImpactSmall64 Impact and DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation as well as a guaranteed Knockdown b Knockdown and DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation status effect.
  • The affect target emits AbilityStrengthBuff3 / 4 / 5 / 6 orb projectiles that seek out enemies within AbilityRangeBuff5 / 7.5 / 10 / 12.5 meters from the main target, over a duration of AbilityDurationBuff12 seconds. Each orb deals AbilityStrengthBuff75 / 85 / 100 / 150 DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation damage, plus 15% / 20% / 25% / 35% of the main target's maximum health and shields divided among the number of orbs, as well as a guaranteed RollingDroneAvatar Stagger and DmgPunctureSmall64 Puncture status, and a ?% DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation status chance.
    • Orb Damage is affected by Mod TT 20px Vigorous Swap and other modifiers that affect abilities that deal "weapon damage", including damage boosting abilities such as Eclipse130xWhite Eclipse.
    • If there are more orbs than enemies in homing range, the remainder will fire in random directions bouncing off of any environmental surface they touch, locking on to the first enemy which crosses into their homing range.
    • Multiple orbs from a single cast can hit the same enemy if they travel close enough to the target after bouncing.
  • Smite is a one-handed ability and as such will not interrupt full actions such as reloading, shooting, or charging weapons.
  • Subsuming Oberon to the Helminth will offer Smite and its augments to be used by other Warframes.

Smite Infusion

Tips & Tricks

  • Smite's DmgImpactSmall64 Impact / DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation damage type is particularly effective vs Corpus Shields and Grineer Alloy Armor, and less effective against most Infested units.
  • Try using Smite's guaranteed DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation proc to misdirect enemies by turning a high-threat target and nearby foes against each other.
    • Moreover, the additional DmgPunctureSmall64 Puncture proc forces enemies to expend more time fighting against their confused comrade.

Bugs

  • When affected by the critical chance buff from a Smeeta Kavat's Charm, the orbs will deal orange critical hits, though will only do 0-1 additional damage depending on target. (E.g: level 125 Chargers receive 0 additional damage from the critical hits, but level 125 Bombards receive 1 more damage, tested at 154% Ability Strength.)

Info

  • Revenant expends EnergyOrb25 energy to release his Sentient energy onto an enemy target within a range of AbilityRangeBuff10 / 15 / 20 / 25 meters, converting it into an Alpha Thrall that is forced to fight for the Tenno cause. Alpha Thrall's attacks spread the affliction to other enemies, also converting them into other alpha thralls on hit. All types of thralls remain under Revenant's control for AbilityDurationBuff15 / 20 / 25 / 30 seconds and only 7 total thralls may exist at once.
    • Casting speed is affected by Casting Speed.
    • The number of active thralls is tracked by the buff icon beside the shield and health bars.

      • Thralls affected by DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation status will result in turning Thralls back to enemy state for its duration.
    • Thralls have high Threat Level, allowing them to draw fire away from Tenno.
  • On death, Alpha Thralls leave behind an Eidolon energy pillar that lasts for AbilityDurationBuff10 seconds. Each energy pillar continuously inflicts AbilityStrengthBuff250 / 500 / 750 / 1,000 DmgPunctureSmall64 Puncture damage per second to all enemies within a AbilityRangeBuff0.5 / 1 / 1.5 / 2 meter radius; additionally, pillars generate homing energy projectiles that seek out nearby enemies within a range of AbilityRangeBuff10 meters, exploding on impact to deal AbilityStrengthBuff250 / 500 / 750 / 1,000 DmgImpactSmall64 Impact damage and guaranteed RollingDroneAvatar Stagger in a ? meter area and converts enemies hit into Beta Thralls as long as Revenant does not already have maximum thralls.
    • Beta Thralls also convert other enemies they hit into beta thralls up to the total Thrall count, but they do not leave behind energy pillars on death.
    • Projectile damage is affected by Mod TT 20px Vigorous Swap and ArcaneArachne Arcane Arachne.
    • Energy pillars do not inflict damage per second nor launch projectiles against thralls.
  • Ability Synergy:
    • Enthrall costs 0 energy when used on an enemy stunned by MesmerSkin130xWhite Mesmer Skin.
    • Reave130xWhite Reave steals AbilityStrengthBuff10% / 20% / 30% / 40% Health and Shields from Thralls (5x more than base).
    • Alpha and beta thralls killed by DanseMacabre130xWhite Danse Macabre leave behind pickups that grant 50 Overshields for Revenant and his allies.
    • Energy pillars explode to disperse damage radially when struck by Danse Macabre lasers.
      • Explosion deals the remaining damage of the pillar to surrounding enemies.
      • Explosion damage diminishes with distance.
  • Can be cast on a new enemy target if below the number of max thralls active.
    • Casting Enthrall on a new target will not refresh the duration of existing Thralls.

  • Enemies under the effect of Enthrall cannot be use to trigger the effects of any arcanes that are triggered on crit, such as ArcaneAcceleration Arcane Acceleration, or on headshot, such as ArcaneConsequence Arcane Consequence.
  • Beam weapons that chain between multiple enemies (such as the KuvaNukor Kuva Nukor or TenetCycron Tenet Cycron) will not chain to enthralled enemies, regardless of the original target.
  • Casting Enthrall is a One-Handed Action that allows the player to perform attacks, movement and parkour Maneuvers.
  • Revenant visually extends his left arm forward and channels a stream of Sentient energy that envelops the target, creating an upward surge of energy particles that appears on the enemy until it is under his control.
  • Thralls are visually distinguished from other enemies by a spectral Eidolon Vomvalyst mask and orbiting spines floating above their head.
  • Revenant's Sentient energy trail, energy particles, thrall Vomvalyst mask and spine sparks, and energy pillar colors are affected by Revenant's chosen Warframe energy color.

  • Immortalized by his reaping of souls, Sevagoth passively collects the life essences of enemies affected by or slain by Reap130xWhite Reap, Sow130xWhite Sow, Gloom130xWhite Gloom, or DeathsHarvest130xWhite Death's Harvest, gradually filling the Death Well gauge displayed above his ability icons. Once 75% of the gauge is filled, Sevagoth may leave his mortal body behind to transfer control into SevagothShadow-Arsenal Sevagoth's Shadow, which is propelled forward for 5 meters then drains 1% of the Death Well per second to remain summoned. Sevagoth's Shadow possesses four new Abilities: Embrace130xWhite Embrace, Consume130xWhite Consume, DeathsHarvest130xWhite Death's Harvest, and Reunite130xWhite Reunite. Exalted Shadow will deactivate when the Death Well fully depletes, when the Shadow receives fatal damage or falls out of bounds, when Transference is initiated, or when Reunite130xWhite Reunite is cast.
    • Sevagoth's physical body is invulnerable to damage and untargetable by enemies while taking control of Shadow.
    • The Shadow will always spawn with full Shields, Health and initial Energy, regardless of its previous state on recast.
    • Propulsion from summoning the Shadow carries forth Sevagoth's momentum when casting Exalted Shadow, allowing the player to gain extra distance once controlling the Shadow.
      • If aim gliding while casting this ability, Sevagoth's body will be propelled forward in an arcing trajectory instead.
    • When the Death Well reaches at least 75%, a sound indicator plays for the player, while the well's energy visually glows intensely, as energy veins emanate outside the well.
  • While controlling Sevagoth's Shadow, he arms himself with his melee Exalted Weapon, the ShadowClaws Shadow Claws.
  • Ability Synergy:
    • Sevagoth's Abilities will stay active during Exalted Shadow.
    • Each enemy affected then killed by any source, or directly killed by Reap130xWhite Reap's Shadow, Sow130xWhite Sow, or DeathsHarvest130xWhite Death's Harvest fills 5% of the Death Well. Each enemy alive within Gloom130xWhite Gloom's radius fills 0.1% per second of the Death Well.
      • The player must be directly controlling Sevagoth with Exalted Shadow deactivated to gain Death Well percentage from the eligible Abilities noted above.
      • Death Well gain stacks when Sown enemies die from Reap, but not vice-versa.
    • For each percent of the Death Well drained during Exalted Shadow, Sevagoth's health is healed by 1% of his maximum health pool once Reunite130xWhite Reunite is complete.
  • Casting Exalted Shadow is a full-body animation that restricts movement and other actions.
  • Sevagoth visually summons his Shadow which materializes in front of him. Sevagoth's body remains stationary in a levitating stance.
  • While within an ability nullification sphere from enemies such as Nullifier Crewman or Isolator Bursa, Sevagoth's Shadow receives damage to its Health pool as 15% of its maximum health pool every 0.5 seconds.
  • Sevagoth's Shadow will benefit from Archon Shards slotted into Sevagoth himself.
  • Sevagoth's Shadow, and Shadow Claws, can benefit from Helminth Invigorations applied to Sevagoth as they are both considered exalted weapons.
    • Any primary, secondary, and reload speed buff from invigorations will not have any benefit during Exalted Shadow as it uses melee exclusively.

Melee Attack Explanations
  • A "sweep attack" is an arcing melee strike that intends to hit an enemy with the edge of the blade (the length of obround melee hitbox).
  • A "thrust attack" is a melee strike that intends to hit an enemy with the tip of the blade (the rounded edge of obround melee hitbox).
  • A "360/spin attack" is a sliding sweep attack that hits targets around the player (not always in a 360° arc, but is usually above 180°).
  • A "direct slam attack" is a melee strike that hits a single target at the epicenter of a slam attack. Affected by the Seismic Wave mod.
  • A "radial slam attack" is the area-of-effect component of the melee slam attack. Affected by the Seismic Wave mod.
  • A "ranged attack" is any melee attack that launches a ranged projectile or can hit targets beyond melee range.
  • Average Damage Multiplier per second only applies to single-target DPS calculations.
  • Note that hits marked as "Radial Slam Attack" will not apply at the epicenter of a single target hit so these will not be accounted for in Avg Dmg Multi/s calculations.
  • Combo animation lengths are approximate and are only accurate within a few tenths of a second.
  • Each tile marking in stance preview gifs are 2m apart.
  • Combos labeled with an asterisk (*) are shared between weapons within the same weapon type.

    • The Javelin's destination is instantly set upon activating the ability, rather than where it would naturally travel when thrown where aimed. It follows this course regardless of any movement or aiming during the throwing animation, even if you move behind an obstruction that should block its set course.
    • If cast in the air, Styanax hops up 1 meter before he throws the javelin.
    • The javelin benefits from generic increases to weapon base damage, such as from ArcaneArachne Arcane Arachne, Mod TT 20px Holster Amp, and Mod TT 20px Vigorous Swap, but not from weapon class specific increases like Mod TT 20px Steel Charge or Mod TT 20px Rifle Amp.
  • If Axios impales an enemy and it impacts a surface, the javelin explodes to inflict AbilityStrengthBuff500 / 750 / 1,000 / 1,250 DmgBlastSmall64 Blast damage to all enemies in a AbilityRangeBuff15 meter radius. Simultaneously, a vortex implosion lasting for 2 seconds, pulls all enemies within sight detection range into its center.
    • Enemies immune to Ragdoll b Ragdoll when impaled by Axios Javelin will not create a vortex.
    • Explosion can damage and break destructible Objects in range while bypassing line of sight restriction.
  • Can be recast with brief to no delay in-between, allowing for rapid-fire javelin throws.
  • Casting Axios Javelin is a full-body animation that restricts Styanax's grounded movement and interrupts other actions, as well as displacing his position vertically when midair.

AxiosJavelineersMod
Main article: Axios Javelineers

Axios Javelineers is a Warframe Augment Mod for StyanaxIcon272 Styanax that allows AxiosJavelin130xWhite Axios Javelin to spawn specters that throw two additional javelins, with a guaranteed chance to spawn a Vortex, while increasing vortex duration when directly striking enemies.

Axios Javelineers

Tips & Tricks

    • Axios Javelin's vortex assists TharrosStrike130xWhite Tharros Strike in en-masse enemy defense reduction and rapid health recovery for Styanax.
    • RallyPoint130xWhite Rally Point taunts enemies to aggressively approach Styanax and become exposed to javelin targeting when away from cover. Energy regen recovers Axios Javelin's low cost quickly. Axios Javelin's vortex groups enemies together for rapid shield recovery on kill or kill assists.
    • Axios Javelin's vortex assists FinalStand130xWhite Final Stand in focusing its barrage on the grouped enemies.

Info

  • Titania shrinks down to a quarter of her original size, becoming a flying pixie. In this form, Titania permanently remains in mid-air, gaining vertical and horizontal flight capabilities using the movement (WASD ), crouch (Ctrl ), jump (Spacebar ), and blink (Shift ) hotkeys, similar to Archwing Maneuvers but without terrain collision damage. Additionally, Titania passively gains 50% evasion and a 10 meter Mod TT 20px Vacuum-like pickup radius. In Razorwing, Titania flies at 10 m/s and sprints at 20 m/s.
  • Instead of all her normal weapons, Titania wields two proprietary Razorwing Exalted Weapons: the DexPixia Dex Pixia dual machine pistols and the Diwata Diwata heavy sword.
    • Weapons are affected by and can trigger Warframe Arcanes and Exodia Arcanes.
    • Both weapons can damage enemies across the Rift Plane, although Diwata's auto-targeting doesn't work across planes.
    • Titania does not have a primary weapon while Razorwing is active.
  • Diwata has its own unique statistics.
    • While Razorwing is active, Titania will also command 6 Razorfly drones to attack nearby enemies. These Razorflies last until killed with 240 health, 100 shields and 40 armor Drones deal AbilityStrengthBuff10 / 24 / 48 / 80 damage per hit.
      • Damage distribution is 10% DmgImpactSmall64 Impact, 10% DmgPunctureSmall64 Puncture, and 80% DmgSlashSmall64 Slash.
      • Attack Speed of 2.0 times per second.
      • Drones have 2.0x critical multiplier, 20% critical chance, and 00% status chance.
      • Razorfly damage is affected by AbilityStrengthBuff Ability Strength and certain mods equipped on Diwata.
      • Razorflies also have a dramatically increased Threat Level, allowing them to draw enemy fire and attention away from Titania's team.
      • Razorflies can be killed by enemy fire, and can only be replenished by recasting Razorwing.
      • Titania's kills during Razorwing will restore health to her Razorflies.
      • Razorflies can trigger Warframe Arcanes that require a headshot, such as ArcanePrecision Arcane Precision, if they hit enemies in the head.
      • Razorflies cannot damage enemies across the Rift Plane.
    • Razorwing consumes EnergyOrb25 energy to activate, then consumes EnergyOrbAbilityDurationBuff5 per second while active and will remain active until Titania's energy is depleted, or the ability is deactivated by pressing the ability key again.
    • Ability Synergy:
      • Spellbind130xWhite Spellbind's status immunity negates the stagger from "crashing" into surfaces.
      • Razorwing spawns an extra Razorfly for each Tribute130xWhite Tribute currently active, up to 4 extra Razorflies up to a maximum of 10.
        • While in Razorwing, Titania can respawn these Razorflies by picking up the corresponding offerings.
      • Razorflies will fly to and pick up Tribute offerings for Titania.
    • While Razorwing is active, Titania can move around freely while casting her other abilities. She can also use most items from her gear, and equipped gear items' sizes will also be shrunk to her scale. Deployed gear items will still retain their original sizes.
    • Kills done by Titania with Razorwing active count towards the "From on High" (Kill 100 enemies in Archwing form on the Plains of Eidolon) challenge.
      • On the other hand, Razorwing is not considered an Archwing for Riven Mod challenges.
    • Titania is unable to accomplish any action that requires the Use key (default X ) while Razorwing is active, thus cannot interact with consoles, pick up carriables such as datamasses, or revive allies from bleedout.
      • Titania can pick up carriables before activating Razorwing, but is not able to use them until she deactivates the ability.
      • The Operator can still be used while in Razorwing, and be able to do these actions without deactivating the ability. However, energy drain and countdowns on buffs like Mod TT 20px Razorwing Blitz will still continue while in Operator mode.
    • Companions disappear when activating Razorwing and will come back once the ability is deactivated. Similar to Archwing, Mod TT 20px Animal Instinct and Mod TT 20px Primed Animal Instinct will still apply.
    • Mod TT 20px Reinforced Bond and Mod TT 20px Tenacious Bond's buffs will continue to affect Titania while in Razorwing, if the conditions are met on the companion.
    • Companions will not regenerate shields while Titania is in Razorwing.
    • If Titania enters Razorwing while a companion is downed, the companion recovery timer will continue to count up. The gauge will pause at 100%, and the companion will not revive until Titania exits Razorwing. Effects that shorten the companion recovery timer such as Mod TT 20px Aerial Bond will work as normal while in Razorwing.

    The Dex Pixia are TitaniaIcon272 Titania's and TitaniaPrimeIcon272 Titania Prime's signature dual pistols, summoned by activating the ability Razorwing130xWhite Razorwing.

    Razorwing Blitz is a Warframe Augment Mod for TitaniaIcon272 Titania's Razorwing130xWhite Razorwing, which boosts the speed of some Warframe and weapon actions when an Ability is cast while the former is channeled.

    Razorwing Blitz

    Tips & Tricks

    • Razorwing greatly improves Titania's survivability:
      • Titania presents a smaller target profile with Razorwing active, making it more difficult for enemies to hit her.
      • Razorwing's innate evasion allows Titania to avoid shots.
      • Razorflies have increased threat rating, drawing aggro away from Titania.
      • The fact that Titania is airborne with Razorwing also allows her to fully avoid taking damage from certain enemies, such as melee enemies and Nox's toxin cloud.
      • Equipping Mod TT 20px Agility Drift and Mod TT 20px Aviator can provide even higher survivability, especially against high level enemies.
    • Dex Pixia has a high rate of fire which allows Titania to deal a lot of damage in a short amount of time. They are also fully capable of triggering ArcanePistoleer Arcane Pistoleer, frequently allowing for up to 12 second bursts of unlimited fire.
    • Casting the ability while in the air will shave off about 0.3 seconds of the animation, the part where she lifts off of the ground, since she is already in the air.
    • When trying to decide between equipping Mod TT 20px Growing Power or Mod TT 20px Pistol Amp, Growing Power increases Dex Pixia's base damage before secondary weapon mods are considered, and Pistol Amp increases Dex Pixia's base damage as if it was a secondary weapon mod (e.g., Mod TT 20px Hornet Strike). This means that Growing Power's 25% ability strength increase is the better choice accompanying weaker ability strength bonuses and stronger secondary weapon damage bonuses while Pistol Amp's 27% damage increase is the better choice with stronger ability damage bonuses and weaker secondary weapon damage bonuses.
    • When trying to decide between equipping Mod TT 20px Growing Power or Mod TT 20px Steel Charge, Growing Power increases Diwata's base damage before melee weapon mods, and Steel Charge increases Diwata's base damage as if it was a melee weapon mod. Despite this advantage for Growing Power, its 25% ability strength increase is inferior to Steel Charge's 60% damage increase in most situations.
    • Titania will drop a datamass or lantern when razorwing is invoked.

    Bugs

    • While in the Simulacrum, using the Helminth ability Empower or Mod TT 20px Energy Conversion before activating Razorwing130xWhite Razorwing does not increase the damage of DexPixia Dex Pixia as opposed to other strength mods, despite showing otherwise in the 'Abilities' section.
    • Tennokai mods can be installed on Diwata but cannot be activated as Diwata does not have a Heavy Attack.
    • Titania can summon archwing weapons when you are close to the ground.
    • Titania can use normal weapon if the connection has a large ping.
    • If you fly to the roof of a tile and then switch into operator mode and back into razorwing relatively quickly you can glitch out of the map.
      • This was 'fixed' in Update 29.0.8, it is still possible in further updates but requires significantly more precision.
    • If you equip Conservation tools or a Fishing spear, you can interact with relative normalcy, excluding hacking and carrying power cells or datamasses or their equivalents (you'll pick them up, but after it puts them at your hand's position, it won't let you hold them).
      • This bug is a possible trigger condition for another; should you vanquish a Kuva Lich while in Archwing mode, you switch to the secondary equipped in your loadout, rather than Dex Pixia. This is only possible if you've used another bug to allow you to interact.
    • There are some cases where after voiding out, as operator or while in Razorwing mode, you will become normal size and the ability icon for Razorwing will show that you have 6 razorflies, this is only visual.

    Hysteria

    Valkyr is imbued with energy and becomes a ball of vicious rage, capable of unleashing a torrent of deadly claw attacks on unsuspecting foes.

    Introduced in Update 11.0 (2013-11-20)

    AbilityStrengthBuff Strength:100 / 125 / 200 / 250 (damage)
    AbilityDurationBuff Duration:N/A
    AbilityRangeBuff Range:N/A

    Misc: 1% / 2% / 4% / 5% (lifesteal)
    5-20 m (aura radius)

    Info

    • Overcome with rage, Valkyr unleashes a pair of energy talons, the ValkyrTalons Valkyr Talons, as her melee Exalted Weapon. Normal attacks deal AbilityStrengthBuff100 / 125 / 200 / 250 damage within 2 meters and all of Valkyr's attacks heal her for 1% / 2% / 4% / 5% of the damage dealt.
    • Damage is affected by AbilityStrengthBuff Ability Strength and most mods.
    • While active, Valkyr becomes Invulnerable to damage and Status Effects.
      • Certain attacks will still push Valkyr away, and shock waves will cause her to bounce into the air. However, these attacks will not force Valkyr to the ground.
      • Statuses that were already active when Hysteria was cast will not be removed. However, Valkyr will be immune to their damage regardless.
      • Valkyr is not immune to Commander teleportation, Regulator minimap disruption, Cryo Floors, Tar-Mutalist MOA slows, or Swarm-Mutalist MOA screen hazing.
    • Valkyr emits an aura with a radius of 5 meters around her while Hysteria is active, and 30% of the total damage she ignores is stored. If any enemies within this aura have Line of Sight of Valkyr when Hysteria is deactivated, Valkyr will be dealt 25% of all stored damage as DmgImpactSmall64 Impact damage.
      • The aura will continue to grow up to 20 meters and each kill reduces it by 1 meter. The aura cannot be decreased below 5 meters.
      • Stored damage is calculated from the total damage Valkyr ignores before resistances are applied.
      • The amount of stored damage can be monitored at the top right of the HUD under Hysteria's ability icon.
      • Stored damage dealt bypasses shield gating and can kill instantly if too large.
      • Stored damage is reset upon swapping weapons.
      • Highlighted enemies become unmarked if Valkyr moves out of range, negating the damage taken when Hysteria expires.
      • Since enemies need line-of-sight, invisibility prevents the damage.
    • After activation, a percentage counter will appear on the ability icon. The percentage increases from 0% to 100% over the course of 40 seconds.
    • Hysteria is affected by and can trigger Warframe arcanes, ExodiaMight Exodia Might , and MeleeCrescendo Melee Crescendo (even though the benefit from exodia might is minimal and it does not share the same combo counter as the melee weapon thus not benefiting directly from Melee Crescendo).
    • While Hysteria is active, Valkyr can cast other abilities and use primary and secondary weapons. Switching weapons will disable Hysteria's effects, including making her vulnerable to damage again; it will also pause the energy cost increase but will continue to drain energy at the current rate.
    • Hysteria comes installed with its own unique stance. Additional combos will be unlocked as Hysteria increases in rank.
    • Cast time of 1 second is affected by Casting Speed.
    • Hysteria's attacks can damage enemies across the Rift Plane.
    • Some of the passives of the Incarnon melee weapons work on Hysteria.

    Melee Attack Explanations
    • A "sweep attack" is an arcing melee strike that intends to hit an enemy with the edge of the blade (the length of obround melee hitbox).
    • A "thrust attack" is a melee strike that intends to hit an enemy with the tip of the blade (the rounded edge of obround melee hitbox).
    • A "360/spin attack" is a sliding sweep attack that hits targets around the player (not always in a 360° arc, but is usually above 180°).
    • A "direct slam attack" is a melee strike that hits a single target at the epicenter of a slam attack. Affected by the Seismic Wave mod.
    • A "radial slam attack" is the area-of-effect component of the melee slam attack. Affected by the Seismic Wave mod.
    • A "ranged attack" is any melee attack that launches a ranged projectile or can hit targets beyond melee range.
    • Average Damage Multiplier per second only applies to single-target DPS calculations.
    • Note that hits marked as "Radial Slam Attack" will not apply at the epicenter of a single target hit so these will not be accounted for in Avg Dmg Multi/s calculations.
    • Combo animation lengths are approximate and are only accurate within a few tenths of a second.
    • Each tile marking in stance preview gifs are 2m apart.
    • Combos labeled with an asterisk (*) are shared between weapons within the same weapon type.

    Enraged is a Warframe Augment Mod for ValkyrIcon272 Valkyr's Hysteria130xWhite Hysteria that increases its damage and critical chance but fixes its duration to 15 seconds and adds a matching cooldown. The base Energy cost is also increased to 50, while the Energy drain over time is removed.

    HystericalAssaultMod
    Main article: Hysterical Assault

    Hysterical Assault is a Warframe Augment/Exilus mod for ValkyrIcon272 Valkyr that allows her to pounce onto enemies while in Hysteria130xWhite Hysteria by meleeing while aiming, dealing damage on contact. It also provides brief Invulnerability when switching off her Valkyr Talons while in Hysteria.

    Hysterical Assault

    Tips & Tricks

    • There may be a dark red hue for the duration of Hysteria, making it difficult to see enemies. This is especially problematic if Infested Parasites are nearby.
      • Turning 'Color Correction' off in Options > Display can alleviate this issue.
    • Her invulnerability can be taken advantage of in reviving teammates in exchange for consuming energy and not attacking enemies with her powerful claws.
      • This can also be used to escape powerful opponents at the middle point of this ability. Allowing greater hit and run tactics.
    • It's preferable to use Mod TT 20px Steel Charge over Mod TT 20px Growing Power when modding for pure damage as the former adds more damage to Hysteria than the latter.
    • It's recommended to activate Melee Auto-targeting System in the options as Valkyr's awkward attack animations may miss a lot.
    • Players who suffer low FPS (Frames per second) may want to avoid attack speed boosts, such as Warcry, while using Hysteria. High attack speeds can result in a loss of DPS as melee attacks are "semi-automatic".
    • Heavy Attacks in Hysteria open enemies to Finishers, allowing you to reliably use the damage boost without spending energy on her Paralysis130xWhite Paralysis ability.
      • This finisher also knocks enemies down, allowing for a successive ground finisher for a quick burst of high damage.

    Bugs

    • Using Hysteria the moment you are downed by enemies will cause you to bug. Sometimes, you will only be able to use your actual melee weapon, but it will swing as though it is your claws; Other times you will be able to use your other weapons, and all while being invincible. You must wait until the effect ends for the bug to clear.
    • Attacks outside the vulnerability radius of Hysteria are still counted to the damage received in the Hysteria status, however these additional points do no effect at the end of the duration.
    • If only a melee weapon is equipped in the player's loadout, casting Hysteria while holding either a Codex or Synthesis Scanner will cause Hysteria's attacks to instead use the equipped melee's quick-attacks, while also rendering both combos and blocking unusable.
