Beware the fury of the truly patient. Baruuk boasts survivability and crowd control. Pushed beyond restraint, he unleashes the storm within.

This is Baruuk, the reluctant warrior.

Following the path that winds between peace and hate, he maintains restraint before unleashing the storm within.

Release Date: December 18th, 2018

Virtuously guided by his noble discipline, the pacifist monk Baruuk invokes sacred runes to evade conflict and bring blissful calm to endless strife. Reach beyond the brink of his patience, for foes to seek eternal rest within the storm unleashed. Baruuk reached enlightenment in Update 24.2 (2018-12-18).

Acquisition

Baruuk's blueprints can be purchased from Little Duck of VoxSolarisIcon Vox Solaris. The main blueprint requires players to be at Rank 2 - Agent, while component blueprints require Rank 3 - Hand. Each blueprint costs 5,000 Standing Standing, totaling to 20,000 Standing.

Alternatively, upon completion of The Duviri Paradox, Baruuk's main and component blueprints can be earned from The Circuit. By selecting him on the rotating week he is available, players can earn his blueprints after reaching Tier 2 (Neuroptics), 5 (Chassis), 8 (Systems), and 10 (Main) rewards.

Notes

Trivia

  • Baruuk was announced during Devstream 119.
  • Baruuk is described as a "pacifist Warframe" and "reluctant hero", someone who normally avoids combat but is extremely effective at it once pushed past his breaking point.
    • The quote "beware the fury of a patient man" and permutations of it have long been used throughout real-world history. It is likely based upon the fact that some people are noticeably slow to anger. Once these people are angered, however, they often exhibit frightening levels of pent-up rage.
  • Baruuk's abilities are described to revolve around mitigating, suppressing and preventing damage until reaching a certain threshold, after which he switches to all-out offense.
    • Artwork created by Alice Boudry for Baruuk's reveal coincidentally depicts Baruuk deflecting attacks.
  • Baruuk's design is inspired by Sudanese tribes.
  • The word "בָּרוּךְ" (pronounced Bārûḵ) means "blessed" in Tiberian Hebrew. Baruuk is depicted in-game wearing an avnet ('priestly sash') around his waist and up to the base of his ribcage, which was worn only by the High Priest of Israel.
  • Baruuk is the 38th Warframe to be released (excluding Primed and Umbra variants).
  • Baruuk is the first Warframe whose blueprints are obtained from a syndicate, VoxSolarisIcon Vox Solaris, using ReputationLarge Standing.
    • As a result, unlike most other Warframes, acquisition of Baruuk's blueprints doesn't depend on random chance, similar to Warframes that can be acquired from the Tenno Lab.
  • Baruuk's fourth ability, SereneStorm130xWhite Serene Storm, is the first channeled ability, and DesertWind Desert Wind is the first Exalted Weapon, in the game that doesn't require energy, using his unique Restraint that eroded with his other three abilities.
    • Restraint can still be eroded normally while Serene Storm is active.
    • Desert Wind is the second melee Exalted Weapon with innate ranged attacks, the first being ExaltedBladeWeapon Exalted Blade.
  • Baruuk's Exalted Weapon had a placeholder name "Paci Fist" in the developer build.
  • When another Tenno is under the effects of both Baruuk's DesolateHands130xWhite Desolate Hands and any kind of invisibility, orbs will appear in place of the daggers.
  • Unlike most of the Warframes, Baruuk was released with only his signature melee, Cobra&Crane Cobra & Crane.
    • As a pacifist, who is typically against taking offensive actions, this may explain why he doesn't have any signature firearms.
    • Baruuk is the first Warframe to have signature weapon synergy, since his release, before Update 24.6 (2019-04-04).
  • Baruuk is the second Warframe to use another type of ability resource besides energy, after NidusIcon272 Nidus and later HildrynIcon272 Hildryn and GaussIcon272 Gauss. In Baruuk's case, he uses his Restraint.

Notes

  • Baruuk Prime, compared to BaruukIcon272 Baruuk:
    • Higher Shield (365/465 vs. 270/370)
    • Higher Armor (240 vs. 185)
    • Altered polarities (Naramon PolVazarin PolMadurai Pol vs. Vazarin PolVazarin Pol)
  • If Baruuk Prime wields his signature Cobra&Crane Cobra & Crane/Cobra&CranePrime Cobra & Crane Prime, every first hit on an enemy will put them to sleep for 2 seconds.
  • As with any other Prime Warframe, moving close to the location of an Orokin Void Death Orb will restore a pulse of 250 Energy to nearby allies, even if that Death Orb is inactive, destroyed, or non-present. This effect can only occur once per orb.
  • Baruuk Prime's Lull130xWhite Lull and Mod TT 20px Serene Storm's Final Sunrise feature Energy color mandala surrounded by metallic ornament arrowheads, with his chosen Accent color, instead of typically drawn mandala arrowheads.
    • Accent color inherited by his Elude130xWhite Elude and DesolateHands130xWhite Desolate Hands are more vibrant than his normal counterpart.

BaruukIcon272 Baruuk's tolerance for violence wanes as his hand is forced by his foes. Restraint is a resource unique to Baruuk that provides up to 50% Damage Reduction when the meter is completely depleted.

  • Restraint meter is displayed in the lower-right on the HUD, above the ability icons.
  • Restraint meter starts fully filled, and is depleted using Baruuk's abilities:
    • Each attack evaded through Elude130xWhite Elude erodes 1.2% from the meter.
    • Each enemy affected by Lull130xWhite Lull erodes 0.8% from the meter.
    • Each enemy disarmed by DesolateHands130xWhite Desolate Hands erodes 1.6% from the meter.
  • Baruuk's fourth ability SereneStorm130xWhite Serene Storm utilizes Restraint instead of Energy to cast and maintain. Using this ability refills Restraint meter by 4% on activation and by 0.8% per second until the ability is deactivated.
    • Restraint can still erode from using Baruuk's other abilities during this ability.

AbilityStrengthBuff Strength:N/A
AbilityDurationBuff Duration:N/A
AbilityRangeBuff Range:120° / 130° / 150° / 180° (evasion angle)

Misc:

100% (dodge chance)0.2 s (reactive delay)

1.2% (Restraint erosion per attack dodged)

Info

  • Baruuk enters a stance that grants him 100% Dodge Chance, causing incoming enemy projectiles and melee attacks to harmlessly phase through his body at angle of AbilityRangeBuff120° / 130° / 150° / 180° relative to the direction Baruuk himself is facing (not the player's camera), but only while not attacking. Should Baruuk attack, there is an approximately 0.2 second delay before Elude reactivates.
    • Attacking counts as any form of firing a weapon or during a melee animation. Charging a gun does not count as attacking but charging a melee heavy attack does.
    • The delay will start once a gun has stopped being fired or after a melee animation is finished.
      • Detonating explosives which require a secondary input will not interrupt Elude; however, the initial act of throwing or firing them will.
  • Ability Synergy:
    • Baruuk's Restraint erodes by 1.2% per attack dodged.
    • While Elude is active, the seeking range of DesolateHands130xWhite Desolate Hands daggers is doubled.
  • Elude costs EnergyOrb25 energy to activate. While active, Elude drains AbilityDurationBuffEnergyOrb2.5 energy per second to maintain the stance until deactivated manually by pressing the ability key again (default 1 ) or automatically when Baruuk runs out of energy.
  • Baruuk's idle animation changes to a nonchalant-looking stance as his torso visibly vibrates constantly while Elude is active. Flowing Void energy waves emit from his upper body to visually represent the angle of evasion.
    • Evaded attacks cause transparent holes to briefly open at the contact spots on Baruuk's body, while a stream of energy particles move through at high speed as each hole closes.

Augment

ElusiveRetributionMod

Elusive Retribution is a Warframe Augment Mod for BaruukIcon272 Baruuk's Elude130xWhite Elude that temporarily increases Baruuk's Attack Speed and Melee Critical Damage for every attack dodged, stacking up to the listed limit.

Elusive Retribution

Tips & Tricks

  • 360° dodge can be achieved with a minimum of 200% Ability Range.
  • Pairs well with weapons with a charge trigger type, since Baruuk doesn't take damage while charging the weapon until firing.

Lull

A calming wave slows enemies until they fall into a slumber. Enemies woken by damage will be confused and disoriented. Short-term amnesia means all waking enemies forget anything that happened before the lull.

Misc: 0.80% (Restraint erosion per enemy lulled)
100 % (alertness reset)

Subsumable to Helminth

Info

  • Baruuk expends EnergyOrb50 energy to cast a calming wave over an area of AbilityRangeBuff10 / 15 / 20 / 25 meters that lingers for AbilityDurationBuff2 / 3 / 4 / 5 seconds. Enemies in sight or aware of Baruuk's presence that enter the area will gradually slow and then fall asleep for AbilityDurationBuff10 / 13 / 18 / 20 seconds. Sleeping enemies awaken early when damaged, suffering disorientation for a brief moment, along with amnesia causing their alertness level to reset.
    • Sleeping enemies are open to melee finishers.
    • Enemies that awaken early from damage, while still inside the Lull field, will be put back to sleep.
  • Ability Synergy:
    • Baruuk's Restraint erodes by 0.80% for each enemy affected.
    • Damage dealt by DesolateHands130xWhite Desolate Hands daggers does not awaken sleeping enemies.
  • Cannot be recast while Lull field is active.
  • Casting Lull is a full-body animation that stops Baruuk's grounded movement and other actions.
  • Subsuming Baruuk to the Helminth will offer Lull and its augments to be used by other Warframes.

Main article: Endless Lullaby

Endless Lullaby is a Warframe Augment Mod for BaruukIcon272 Baruuk's Lull130xWhite Lull that re-triggers Lull for its remaining duration upon initiating a finisher on or killing a sleeping enemy. This mod also passively increases Lull's duration.

Endless Lullaby

Tips & Tricks

  • Lowering duration allows Lull to be used more often, eroding Restraint more quickly.
  • Can be used in a choke point to cause enemies to slow down and sleep as they pass through.
  • As the ability resets aggression on enemies, it can be used to obtain easy stealth kills during mission.

Misc:

1.6% (Restraint erosion per enemy disarmed)10% (damage reduction per dagger)

90% (damage reduction cap) 50% (dagger cap per ally)

Info

  • Baruuk expends EnergyOrb75 energy to summon a protective ring of AbilityStrengthBuff3 / 4 / 6 / 8 levitating energy daggers around him that passively provide him with 10% Damage Reduction per dagger orbiting in the ring. The daggers will seek enemies in sight and within AbilityRangeBuff6 meters, launching one by one to Disarm their targets on impact, then explode dealing AbilityStrengthBuff100 / 150 / 200 / 250 DmgBlastSmall64 Blast damage to all enemies within a AbilityRangeBuff3 meter radius.
    • Arsenal lists the damage reduction with maximum daggers.
      • Damage reduction can not exceed 90% under any circumstance, capping out at 9 daggers.
    • Enemies that have already been disarmed will not be targeted by the daggers.
  • While active, Desolate Hands shares its effects with allies by launching 1 dagger at a time to the nearest ally within Baruuk's dagger seek range and in direct line of sight. Shared daggers also provide damage reduction, disarm charges, and erodes Baruuk's Restraint on enemy disarm for the affected allies; each ally can carry up to 50% of the modded number of daggers.
    • Affected allies includes all Warframes, Companions, Eidolon Lures, summoned allied units such as Specters, allied Invasion units, Hostages, Kavor Defectors, Sortie and Arbitrations Defense Operatives, and Defense Objects.
      • On Defense Objects, the damage reduction is capped at 50%, but the object may still carry more than 5 daggers.
    • Baruuk does not lose his own dagger charges when shared with allies, instead his allies receive new daggers.
    • Once the maximum number of shared daggers is reached on an ally, Baruuk's Desolate Hands will not share new daggers with that ally.
    • Only Baruuk's own Desolate Hands will share new daggers to allies.
  • Ability Synergy:
    • Baruuk's Passive erodes by ~1.6% per enemy disarmed by his own daggers and shared daggers on allies.
    • While Elude130xWhite Elude is active, the daggers' seeking range is doubled.
    • Damage dealt by Desolate Hands' dagger explosion will not awaken sleeping enemies under Lull130xWhite Lull's influence.
  • Can be recast while active to restore the number of daggers to full.
    • New instance of Desolate Hands will cause daggers to retarget previously disarmed enemies and allies with shared daggers if within range.
  • Casting Desolate Hands is a full-body animation that stops Baruuk's grounded movement and other actions.

Tips & Tricks

  • Low range values can help prevent the daggers from seeking out enemies, making it easier to keep them for damage reduction.

With his Restraint eroded, Baruuk commands the Desert Wind to deliver powerful radial strikes with his fists and feet. Each moment commanding the storm restores his Restraint.

Misc:

40% (damage reduction cap)? % (disarm chance on hit)

100 % (wind wave projectile deflection)

Info

  • Baruuk foregoes his restraints to empower his fists with volatile energies, commanding the DesertWind Desert Wind and wielding it as his melee Exalted Weapon. While Serene Storm is active, Baruuk also receives AbilityStrengthBuff10% / 15% / 20% / 25% Damage Reduction against enemy attacks, and slows enemies within a 3 meter radius by 50%.
    • Damage reduction is capped at 40%.
    • Damage reduction only applies when Desert Wind is the active weapon.
    • Slow amount and radius are not affected by mods.
  • Rather than using energy, Baruuk regenerates his Restraint, recovering 4% Restraint on activation and then restores 0.80% Restraint per second.
    • Baruuk can still erode his Restraint while Serene Storm is active by using his other abilities.
    • Baruuk does not need to have completely eroded his Restraint meter to use Serene Storm. He is free to activate it as long as he has 96% Restraint, and can deactivate it at any time to stop restoring his Restraint if he wishes.
  • Normal attacks will emit a wind wave in the direction of aim that travel 20 meters. Wind waves have the same base damage as the melee attacks that release them.
    • The wind waves and Serene Storm itself are considered separate entities and will both deal damage separately.
    • Wind waves will Punch Through and hit enemies and terrain regardless of thickness up to their maximum range.
    • Wave damage does not fall off with distance.
    • Wave range and flight speed are not affected by mods.
    • Enemies hit by the waves will suffer a stagger.
    • Enemy projectiles hit by the waves have a 100% chance to be redirected toward their originating direction.
  • Serene Storm comes installed with its own unique stance. Additional combos will be unlocked as Serene Storm increases in rank.
    • Forward melee combo thrusts Baruuk's fists toward his enemies to generate a powerful push that inflicts damage, stagger, and ragdoll effects.
    • Hold melee combo creates an upward draft that drifts forward and gradually lifts enemies high into the air.
    • Block melee combo creates a suctioning pull to drag enemies toward Baruuk.
    • Slide melee combo bends gravity around Baruuk to radially lift all nearby enemies into the air.
    • Slam melee combo creates a radial blast that knocks back all enemies in range.
    • Slam melee combo while blocking creates a radial vortex that pulls in all enemies in range.
  • Any hits made directly by the impact of Baruuk's fist or the waves of energy caused by Desert Wind, have a chance to permanently Disarm the enemy.

    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.

    Base vs Final Stats in Modding - Health / Energy / Shield / Armor Stat Overhaul

    If you’ve spent any time invested in the deeper nuances of Modding, you may be familiar with “Warframe Math” - math that upon first glance doesn’t really make sense, but once you learn the inner workings of the game, it all comes together. While we can appreciate the value that complex systems offer to a certain subsect of players, there are other aspects of the game that should have clear and understandable outcomes. Namely: Shield, Health, Energy, and Armor Modding.

    Pop quiz: what is 300 + 440%? If you answered 740, you may just be an Excalibur player.

    Vitality (+440% Heath), Redirection (+440% Shields), Flow (+150% Energy), and Steel Fiber (+110% Armor) come with large modifier values that don’t seem to match their outcome in-game. This is because these Mods apply their multiplier to the base stats of the Warframe - i.e., the stats you have at Rank 0. In the Excalibur example, a Rank 30 Excalibur’s Health stat of 300 earns an additional 440 Health from max rank Vitality (+440% Heath) since it applies to his base rank Health stat of 100, resulting in 740 total health.

    In this update, we have removed this obfuscation by having Health, Shield, Energy, and Armor Mods apply to the stats of Warframes at their current rank. Continuing our Excalibur example, instead of Vitality always applying to Excalibur’s base rank 100 Health, it would apply to his Health stat based on his rank - namely, the stat you can actually see in your Arsenal. If your Excalibur were Rank 30, his Health stat would be 300, which means Vitality’s multiplier would be calculated off of 300.

    With previous Health and Mod values, additional adjustments are needed to make this revision work while maintaining game balance. By only changing where the multiplier applies, a Rank 30 Excalibur would receive an extra 1,320 Health from max rank Vitality, resulting in a total health stat of 1,600. This outcome is a significant buff, which is not the intention of this system change.

    To remedy this, we approached this problem in two ways:

    1 - We reduced the overall multiplier for Health, Shield, Energy, and Armor Mods.
    Since these now affect Max Rank Warframe stats, these Mods need to scale differently to maintain the status quo. Additionally, we wanted these new values to be as clear and understandable to all players as possible! Here are a few examples of these value changes:

    • Vitality: Reduced from +440% to +100% Health
    • Redirection: Reduced from +440% to +100% Shield Capacity
    • Steel Fiber: Reduced from +110% to +100% Armor
    • Flow: Reduced from +150% to +100% Energy Max

    Note: These are not all of the Mods affected by this change. We share the comprehensive list further down in this section of the update notes.

    Doing some quick math, this means that a Rank 30 Excalibur (300 Health) with a reworked Vitality Mod (+100% Health, applied to the final Health stat) would receive 300 extra Health, for a total of 600. That, in contrast, is a nerf, which we also don’t want to do.

    So, our next step:

    2 - We adjusted Warframe Health, Shield, Energy, and Armor values to keep the end result of the revised Mods as close to the original values as possible.

    With this change, Excalibur’s Rank 30 Health stat is 370. With +100% Health from a max Vitality Mod, his resulting Health stat would be 740, which matches what it was originally.

    While this path to the same result may seem a little complicated, the outcome matches our intention: we want players to be able to look at their Health, Shield, and Armor Mods, and be able to understand how they affect the stats they see in their Arsenal.

    In addition to everything above, we also increased the base stat values for Warframes so that these revised Mods offer similar value for lower-ranked Frames. To do so, we reduced the amount of Health/Shield/Energy that Warframes earn per rank in half, and transferred the sum of that value to their base stats.

    For Armor, this is the one stat that does not increase with your Warframe’s level (with some exceptions). Armor values across the board have been slightly increased to compensate for the Mod changes.

    Not to beat a dead Kaithe, but Mods will now be applying to the Max Rank stat instead of the Base Rank. You may look at these numbers and think “nerf” or “buff” depending, but the outcome is that total Modded values are the same, if not a little higher in some cases.

    Warframe Stat Changes:

    BARUUK Health: Base Rank - 180 (from 75) / Max Rank - 280 (from 225) Shields: Base Rank - 270 (from 100) / Max Rank - 370 (from 300) Armor: Base Rank - 185 (from 175)

    Energy: Base Rank - 200 (from 200) / Max Rank - 300 (from 300)

    BARUUK PRIME Health: Base Rank - 180 (from 75) / Max Rank - 280 (from 225) Shields: Base Rank - 365 (from 125) / Max Rank - 465 (from 375) Armor: Base Rank - 240 (from 225)

    Energy: Base Rank - 200 (from 200) / Max Rank - 300 (from 300)

    While there may be significant changes to Warframe Stats and Mod values as a part of this overhaul, the end result is that your Builds should mostly stay the same. The key difference is the added clarity of what your Health / Shield / Energy / Armor Mods do in your Upgrade screens!

    Xoris Interaction Changes

    Certain Warframe Abilities and Exalted weapons will now reset the Melee Combo Counter only if the Xoris is being used. The overwhelming Damage output of certain Warframe Abilities was not our intention with an infinite Melee Combo weapon, and the conversation of ‘Xoris or you’re doing it wrong’ is greatly restrictive in terms of player choice.

    Warframe Abilities / Exalted Warframe weapons affected by this are:
