Notes[]

Trivia[]

  • In Update: The Vacuum Within (2016-10-05), Vacuum was removed from Carrier and was replaced with Mod TT 20px Ammo Case, while the vacuum effect was applied to all Sentinels. In Hotfix: The Vacuum Within 2 (2016-10-06), Vacuum was returned to Mod form as an optional precept for all Sentinels.
  • Prior to Hotfix 24.0.2 (2018-11-09), the mod allowed Sentinels to collect pickups instead of increasing the player's pickup radius. In other words, pickups used to go towards the Sentinel instead of the player.

Patch History[]

Update 37.0 (2024-10-02)

Changes to Companion Precepts

Many Companion Precept effects are currently too small or too brief to be really beneficial. We want your choice of companion to feel more meaningful and for your Companion to contribute in a more visible way, so there are a whole lot of buffs to get through.

  • Vacuum (Robotic Companions):
    • Increased range from 11.5m to 13.5m to match Fetch.

Hotfix 32.1.2 (2022-11-04)

  • Intact Sentient Cores can now be picked up by Vacuum!
    • A QOL bump due to the amount of UI noise experienced in Archon Hunt missions (specifically Defense).

Hotfix 32.1.1 (2022-11-03)

Hotfix 24.0.2 (2018-11-09)

Vacuum/Fetch Changes
  • Both Vacuum and Fetch Mods now pull the items directly to the Warframe as opposed to the Sentinel/Pet. Pets in Warframe don’t mimic the same ‘follow’ logic like Sentinels, so they would end up running around with items instead of giving them to you. So basically very bad at fetching....

Update 22.14 (2018-03-01)

  • Vacuum now collects Atlas' rubble.

Hotfix 22.10.1 (2018-01-26)

  • Fixed Vacuum not working consistently for clients.

  • Fixed being able to Vacuum up the Sky Archwing Enablers in the Plains of Eidolon.

Update 21.5 (2016-08-16)

  • Fixed not receiving the Vacuum Mod upon crafting Taxon.

Update 19.8 (2017-01-25)

  • Fixed Host being able to Vacuum around items on Clients' screens and having items be stuck in the air where the Host last Vacuumed them to.

Hotfix: The Vacuum Within 2 (2016-10-06)

  • Vacuum is now an equippable Mod (Precept) for all Sentinels, range increased to 12m at max rank.

Update: The Vacuum Within (2016-10-05)

  • All sentinels now have a passive 6 meter Vacuum. No mod is required.
    • The exclusive precept of Carrier now is Mod TT 20px Ammo Case.

Hotfix 16.6.1 (2015-05-28)
