Update 34.0 (2023-10-18)
- COMPANION STAT CHANGES
Two broad changes have been made with regard to your Companion's base stats to increase their staying power:
1. Health, Shields and Armor have been refactored across the board.
This simple numeric buff was made with the goal of increasing Companion survivability. This also means that the choice of whether to use, for example, Enhanced Vitality or Linked Vitality, will depend on your Warframe choice instead of the Linked Mod always being strictly superior.
2. Non-Sentinel Companions now gain their full Health and Shield values immediately when you acquire them.
Historically Health and Shield values would increase as your Companion ranked up, which you could see as "Rank Bonuses" in the Upgrades screen. We've removed this behavior and simply given Companions what would end up being their Rank 30 values at Rank 0. This should let you immediately take your Companions on more difficult missions after earning them!
Including both the removal of Companion Rank bonuses, and the base increase to stats, the following lists the stat changes for all Companions at Rank 0:
Revised Vulpaphyla Stats (all types):
- 680 Health (from 180), 370 Shield (from 95), 200 Armor (from 50)

Do these count as kavats, i want to costomize them
They are their own thing in terms of armour, but you can use any colours you have for other pets
Why is it called a Panzer? Isn't the word "bad", because my mind goes ballistic about naming it?
I wanted to name it like a German tank, but I feel like I would be in trouble.
Get into trouble for naming your companion after german tank? Bro i have seen companions with much worse names, n-word for expample
My guy really went German = Yatzi
Panzer is german for armour. it has no meaning beyond that
Technically it does mean "tank" as well, just as "tank" itself is a word for something else that was used to described the vehicle.
Viral Quills mod is incredibly helpful, max viral stacks combined with spores infecting nearby enemies within whopping 15 meters when hit, literally a pocket Saryn that gives easy 325% damage boost, and Vulps being able to respawn infinitely is a cherry on top.
Seems to be working perfectly as of 2024-2-11
Unless I'm just not noticing it
This didn't age well because all pets are respawn now
Still a pocket saryn that does the same job as before. if you not running with verglas, you wont get a viral spreader of this sort. Very niche for its purpose. So yeah, nothing about aging here, but what to expect from overframe simps that cant even understand basic mod building, go cry on forums again how netracells are impossible - and no, "A fandom user" wont hide your history, nerd.
Panzers still have their own niche, they're the best users of some of the supportive Bond mods, they have a shorter respawn timer than other pets, and spreading Viral around is still a really nice effect, even if Hounds and Diriga can do it to some effect too.
Panzers are still a very viable and fine choice for a companion, and I'd argue that they're kind of a comfort pick honestly, where they're always doing something, but not doing so much that they kind of end up nearly doing "too" much, in a way (which is totally fine if you like stuff like Nautilus that can group enemies btw, it's just a playstyle thing and what different people find fun, I just mean that Panzers are much less intrusive to regular gameplay in the support that they provide, while also still providing some very useful benefits).
It's also worth noting that Panzers, on top of having their Larval form, are surprisingly tanky in general honestly, which is nice in a companion.
Panzers aren't bad, this post didn't age poorly or anything, but, it's also not productive to call the person who said that insults, we all like the game, and we all like talking about the game, it's healthier for discussion and for ourselves if we give people the benefit of the doubt.
I only found Panzer when Vome show. and only found Crescent when Fass show.
k
So long ago i got panzer without tranquilizing and tracing shit... it was just waiting for me weakend.
Ok i agree that's called luck... but today i got one more panzer at my first use of echo lure & pherhormone (idk what it's called sorry of wrong spelling ;-;) and plot twist i didn't have any idea that these mf spawned at a specific cycle ;-;
Am I lucky or DE has a crush on me ?
;=;
Can we pet 2 vulpaphyla at the same time?
If you mean by petting like interacting with, no. If you mean having multiple types, copies, then yes. You can have as many duplicates as you have pet slots for.
Ninguem explica qual os melhores atributos pra colocar nele na hora de escolher, isso realmente faz alguma diferença ou é mais pela estetica mesmo?
É mais por estetica mano, só oq muda é a escola de foco, mas no fim, nao faz mt diferença, pq todos os teus outros equip. vao estar com lente
Used pheromone during Vome (NOT FASS) and got this idiot for the fifteenth time, Does NOT only spawn during Fass.
Ig you should go alone.. like not with any companions or team mate.. that should work
I got mine totally randomly while doing an isolation vault , it was just waiting there , weakened
The vulphaya has chosen you
Its official, Schrödinger's cat is in warframe
Panzer Vulpaphyla is both a cat and isn't at the same time
Kind of like a fox. Taxonomically it's a dog, but it acts more like a cat. I've always pretended they are really large plague foxes.
Not a cat. The name and decription refer to them as foxes. When hunting and calling, Son states that they come from an "old earth scavenger". Most likey foxes, but possibly also something like a coyote,
Being both a cat and not a cat at the same time isn't schodinger's cat... it's the fact that it can die and revive itself is probably what op was saying
Best way to get sporulate sac = not fish. lol
Max range xaku + greedy pull.
Destroying loot boxes around necralisk also works
i just love it when i stumble upon these infested beauties (usually alongside their exquisite and exotic kuva zarr-wielding gloom-injected owners) and they happen to be named 'mini saryn' or 'pocket saryn' and other similarly uncommon and tremendously creative monikers like that
Named mine Phoenix, not toxin-related but apt i feel!
Named mine "beru" UwU
Mine's called Eugen
Named mine everyone so it says "Everyone is down" when it dies
So far I've captured three Panzers and not one has shown in the revivify page, is there a reason for this?
They have to be attacked by infested to become weakened for them to be eligible for Revivification.
You can sedate them and then lure an infested charger to their location to attack it by standing next to the sedated Vulpaphyla.
Their name should change to have 'weakened' in front, I think.
Pretty stupid that you have to do that.
Thanks for this comment.
I was wondering why the creatures I caught weren't showing up, but I missed that they should be attacked by infested first (and survive).
It seems that playing steel path means that whenever they get attacked they die, and when they don't get attacked I cannot use them.
I guess I should turn off steel path for this.
Every time i see it use Viral Quills they just fly off in some random direction and never hit any nearby enemies, to make it worse it's always diagonally upwards into the sky. Haven't watched Panzer Devolution shots but i dont use it for the attacks, i use it for the unlimited respawns.
If you are using it for it to hit a decired single target, then yeah, viral quills is meant for crowd control, thats why it shoots multiple quills with a 4 second cooldown, and also it might be your luck.
Luck is still a thing? How about god?
God only knows that
Probably too many fast moving enemies in an area at once. Mine has a tendency to snipe targets I'm trying to snipe, and pin them to walls.
Does anyone know why my Panzer Vulp isn't retaining Fetch and Animal Instinct buff when turned into larva?
Because the larva form is treated as an ability but not the pet itself
The pet is considered "dead" during the larva phase so they dont get any of their abilities (minus the larva one as it triggers on KO).
What are some good mods? I don't do well with finding out good mods
Hunter Recovery and Bite, animal instinct and fetch is great
with this pet
Mine is not retaining Fetch + Animal Radar buff when turned into lava for some reason...
Its intentional,when it reverts into a larva, the pet is still "dead", and only when it matures back, you get back the effects.
Where can i get one. having trouble
Go to cambion drift when its fass
Or just find a vuplaphyla shit and use a pheromone
Interesting thing i discovered myself is that even though you might get a ton of good captures, certain conditions neeed to be met for the fox to be eligible for co panionship. Namely, if you have a few infested nearby, try luring the 2 together, so that they begin fighting and weakening the fox. If you capture it while it's health is depleted but not dead, you will get it as an option for revivification and so it can be made into a pet. I recentky got a new panzer this way. If you sleep them on full healrh you don't need to save their lives, but also don't outright shoot them as they are super easy to kill accidentally.
Right know fetch in his larval form isnt working, no clue if its intended or not
It's working for me
Doesn't work as larva
Easy cheezy: panzer, wukong, kuva nukor. Watch as your clone decimates everything while spreading the spores. You can join in with melee if needed.
Why is everything dead?
Animal Instinct's Radars keep active even while the Panzer Vulpaphyla is respawning.
There is literally no reason to use any other pet anymore.
Yea, the immortal feature is pretty ridiculous
