  1. WHISPERS IN THE WALLS: UPDATE 35.1.0 Hello Tenno! Whispers in the Walls: Update 35.1.0 is an Interim Cert* update that brings many code changes* and fixes, including many new player path improvements and more! It’s worth noting that some of the QOL mentioned in Devstream #176 is in this update but not all - more is planned for March (Inaros Rework, Arsenal Stat Audit, Archon Shard Expansion, etc.) with the release of Dante Unbound! *Learn more about what these terms mean in the Warframe Lexicon for Updates. NEW PLAYER PATH IMPROVEMENTS The next batch of changes to improve the new player experience are here! In this update, we address Quest progress obstacles and rebalance the Fortuna Syndicates rank-up requirements to make them more accessible. Quest Changes Saya’s Vigil Quest Changes: “Locate the Shatter-Lock pieces” stage: The Grineer Armored Vault in the Plains of Eidolon that contains one of the Glass Shards that needs to be scanned will now be opened by default. Before, you would have to interact with the unlock terminal for the doors to open. This made finding the Glass Shard difficult, as players would, understandably, overlook the locked Vault. Moved the Glass Shard in the Grineer Armored Vault from a hard to see corner to the floor. Added a highlight to the Glass Shard to make them more visible. “Board Hek's Galleon” stage: Reduced the level of enemies from 5-8 to 4-5. Reduced the level of the Nox that players have to defeat to progress from 12 to 7. The Sacrifice Quest Changes: Added 60x Kuva to the “Explore Lua” mission rewards. Since 60x Kuva is required to craft Excalibur Umbra to proceed in the Quest, we want to prevent players from having to interrupt their Quest flow in order to obtain some. Vox Solaris Quest Changes: “Talk to Thursby in Fortuna” stage: Lowered the Health of the Corpus Spy Drone (from 8,000 to 2,500) you have to shoot down and hack to progress. Solaris United & Vox Solaris Syndicate Sacrifice Changes: The Rank-up Sacrifices for Solaris United and Vox Solaris have undergone a rebalance! Both have had their requirements significantly reduced to help make these Syndicates much more accessible for players. We also made some slight changes to the Rank requirements of some of Little Duck’s Offerings - read on for specifics on all of the above! Solaris United Sacrifice Changes: Rank 1 “Outworlder” Training Deb Bonds - Reduced to 2 (was 13) Rank 2 “Rapscallion” Shelter Debt Bonds - Reduced to 3 (was 15) Training Debt Bonds - Reduced to 2 (was 12) Rank 3 “Doer” Medical Debt Bonds - Reduced to 4 (was 13) Shelter Debt Bonds - Reduced to 3 (was 15) Training Debt Bonds - Reduced to 2 (was 10) Rank 4 “Cove” Advances Debt Bonds - Reduced to 5 (was 13) Medical Debt Bonds - Reduced to 4 (was 10) Shelter Debt Bonds - Reduced to 3 (was 12) Rank 5 “Old Mate” Familial Debt Bonds - Reduced to 5 (was 10) Advances Debt Bonds - Reduced to 5 (was 12) Medical Debt Bonds - Reduced to 3 (was 12) Vox Solaris Sacrifice Changes: Rank 1 “Operative” - No changes Rank 2 “Agent” Gyromag Systems - Reduced to 1 (was 8) Vega Toroid - Reduced to 1 (was 5) Rank 3 “Hand” Atmo Systems - Reduced to 1 (was 5) Calda Toroid - Reduced to 1 (was 5) Rank 4 “Instrument” Repeller Systems - Reduced to 1 (was 3) Sola Toroid - Reduced to 1 (was 5) Rank 5 “Shadow” Repeller Systems - Removed (was 3) Crisma Toroid - Reduced to 1 (was 3) Little Duck’s Offerings Rank Changes: Changed the Vox Solaris Rank requirement for purchasing Gyromag Systems from Rank 3 to Rank 1 and changed Atmos Systems from Rank 3 to Rank 2. Since Rank 2 requires a Gyromag System Sacrifice, and Rank 3 requires an Atmo Systems Sacrifice, we adjusted their Rank requirements so that players could acquire them with Standing to rank up. This logic was already applied to the Repeller Systems, which you can purchase at Rank 3 and need for the Rank 4 & 5 Sacrifices, so we did the same with these. New Venus Junction Reward: “Dreamer's Bond” Aura Mod Upon completing the Venus Junction, players will now be rewarded with a new Aura Mod: Dreamer’s Bond Squad receives +0.3 Energy Regen/s and +1.5 Health Regen/s. The intent is to get new players familiar with Aura Mods earlier in the game. Which is also why we have temporarily assigned it the Madurai Polarity, which matches the Aura Slot for our starter Warframes Mag and Volt (Excalibur has an unassigned Aura Polarity). We will be changing its Polarity to Universal (can be equipped onto any Aura Polarity to increase mod capacity) in the Dante Unbound update, so that all Warframes can benefit from equipping it! Acquiring outside of Junction: For those who have already completed the Venus Junction, Dreamer’s Bond will be sent via inbox message upon login after downloading this update. We have also added it to the Nightwave Cred Offerings rotation! Additions: (This pack is currently not available yet on PlayStation, we are investigating - thank you for your patience!) To celebrate the launch of Warframe on iOS, the new Starter Weapon Pack is available for purchase on all platforms (one per account) and includes: Aeolak Rifle (Max Rank) Serration Mod (Max Rank) 100 Platinum New Somachord songs are now available at Varzia’s Prime Resurgence Offerings for Aya! Enjoy the signature themes of these Prime Warframe that were featured in their respective trailers. Gauss Prime Theme (also known as “Redline”) Grendel Prime Theme Gara Prime Theme Hildryn Prime Theme Hydroid Prime Theme Khora Prime Theme Nekros Prime Theme Nidus Prime Theme Oberon Prime Theme Octavia Prime Theme Revenant Prime Theme Vauban Prime Theme Note: The Somachord songs may take a moment to appear in Varzia’s Offerings - rest assured that they will be there momentarily after the update has launched! Cross Platform Play/Save Changes & Fixes: Fixed being unable to progress in the Awakening Quest after Merging an account that had completed with an account that hadn’t yet. Fixed Exalted Weapons losing their progress after merging accounts. Since a Warframe can only have a singular Exalted Weapon, the Primary account would override the Secondary’s Exalted Weapon progress, regardless of its state. Now, when accounts are merged, the account with the Exalted Weapon that has more Forma and Rank/Affinity will be prioritized. Fixed the warning pop-up informing players that they cannot trade Platinum with Nintendo Switch accounts (as intended with the Platform specifications for Cross Platform Trading & Gifting) stating that the trade has failed instead of specifying why. This would occur specifically when adding Platinum to the Trade window after another item or after attempting to add it a second time. Fixed cases where players would not be properly Host Migrated if the Host was on a Console platform. Fixed having both an incubating and equipped Companion active at the same time after merging an account that is Incubating a Companion with an account that has a Companion equipped. Now, when merging accounts in these states, the equipped Companion will be unequipped. Fixed players on other platforms being unable to add an Xbox player as a friend if they had spaces in their alias. Fixed a rare issue where the "You are already logged in. Login here and terminate the other connection?" message would pop up repeatedly after linking a Console account to a brand new PC account and using the Companion App. Fixed Operator/Drifter Configs not retaining their assigned customizations after making a Console account the primary during merge. This would often appear as if Config A’s customizations had been copied over to all Configs. Any future merges will now take the primary account’s Configs. For existing merges, the Configs have been reverted to those from the primary account. Fixed case where you could end up with more Loadouts than Loadout Slots after merging accounts. This was caused by Loadout Slots from the Initiate Power Pack and those from Mastery Ranks not carrying over into the merged account. Players would see, for example, “SLOTS 4/3” in the Loadout screen after merging. Note: Merged accounts that were created from an account with the max amount of purchasable Slots (24) with one that also had a lot of Loadouts will likely still have more Loadouts than Slots even with the above fix. These Loadouts are still accessible/usable, but in order to create new Loadouts you will have to get below the 24 Slot limit by deleting some. Albrecht’s Laboratories Changes & Fixes: Enemies hit with Amphor’s AOE will now count towards the “Hit Enemies with X Amphor” Alchemy Bounty Challenge. Previously, the challenge required a direct hit to count as progress towards the challenge, so we made it much more forgiving. In light of this change, we have slightly increased the required amount of enemies needed to hit to complete the challenge now that it is easier to gain progress: Low tier Bounty: From 5 to 6 Mid tier Bounty: From 10 to 12 Higher tier Bounty: From 15 to 18 Vitreum scanning duration now scales according to squad size in the Effervo Assassination mission: Solo player: 30 seconds Two players: 27 seconds Three players: 24 seconds Full squad: 20 seconds (this was the original duration for all squad sizes prior to this change) Removed the “Find X Murmur Sarcophages” challenge from Alchemy Bounties. There was an issue with not enough Sarcophages spawning in Alchemy Bounties, making it impossible to complete the challenge, so it has been removed. Added an eyelid to the Vitreum that reacts based on its various scanning states. Fixed Necramites spawning extremely far from players in Netracell missions. They now have a max spawn distance of 500 meters to help prevent this issue! Fixed only 3 Acolytes spawning in total during Steel Path Alchemy missions. They will now continue to spawn in intervals as they usually do in endless mission types. Fixed the maximum number of Vitreums that can be activated simultaneously in the Effervo Assassination mission not scaling based on Squad size if started from Sanctum Anatomica’s navigation. Fixed Netracell Keyglyphs equipping onto the player closest to the terminal instead of the player that actually selected it. Fixed Clients seeing Keyglyph names in the Host’s language instead of their own in the pop-up that occurs when picked up. The Netracell search radius will now gradually shrink rather than suddenly jump after hacking the Pom-3 terminals. Repositioned and condensed the Netracell objective text so that it takes up less screen space. Fixed Exhaustion Keyglyph’s Energy drain causing the Sanguine Keyglyph to trigger and deal Bleed Status in Netracell missions. Fixed Host migration causing the next round of pressure vents in Alchemy missions to spawn far from the Crucible’s location. Fixed Clients switching to their Primary weapon after throwing an Amphor in Alchemy missions instead of their Secondary if they had it equipped upon picking up the Amphor. Fixed another section in the Netracell being accessible and bypassed by Titania in Razorwing. Fixed enemies continuing to spawn outside of The Fragmented’s arena (Effervo, Assassination node) after Host Migration. Fixed Murmur Eyes visually lingering after killing their Hurling Fragments with damage over time effects at the same time they expire. Slight timing tweak to when the audio transmission plays after hacking the terminal in the Persto, Deimos Survival mission. Made tweaks (pacing, repeat frequency, etc.) to the audio transmissions in the Deimos Assassination (Effervo), Alchemy (Cambire), and Netracell missions. Made an extremely minor tweak to Eximus units spawn timing in Alchemy missions so that they spawn a tad faster. Fixed lighting issue that would cause the depth fog to pop randomly in Albrecht’s Laboratories. Changes: You will no longer be forcibly dismounted from your Kaithe in Duviri when near the Table for Two and Void Mirror objectives. In its place, a message will pop up to inform players that they must dismount first. Players are also no longer blocked from mounting Kaithe while engaged with these objectives. This initial restriction was added due to players on Kaithes causing animation issues for their mirrored Operators. Now your Mirror version will disappear when you are on a Kaithe to prevent those animation issues from occurring. Adjusted Riven type drop rates in Sorties, Archon Hunts, Steel Path Circuit, Nihil’s Oubliette and Acrithis’ and Pallidino’s Veiled Riven Offerings to be more proportional to weapon ratios. In all Riven sources other than Sorties and Archon Hunts, each Riven type has had an equal chance of being rewarded, meaning you are as likely to get a Kitgun Riven as you are a Melee Riven, despite Kitgun Rivens having 6 possible weapons and Melee having well over 100. Now, Kitguns and Zaws are the least likely to be rolled, followed by (in ascending order) Shotguns, Rifle, Pistol, and Melee. This order is applied to both guaranteed and drop table Rivens: Drop rates for guaranteed Rivens (Acrithis, Pallidino, and Nihil’s Oubliette): Kitgun 3.5% Zaw 3.5% Shotgun 8% Rifle 25% Pistol 25% Melee 35% Drop rates for each type have been adjusted in places where Rivens are only a portion of the drop tables (Sorties, Archon Hunt, Duviri Steel Path Circuit). The total chance for a Riven remains the same (ex: Sorties still have a total 28% chance of rewarding a Riven). For full details, visit the public drop tables. Thrax Centurions and Legatus enemies will now clear all active Status Effects when transitioning to their spectral forms. They were already immune to new Status Effects in their spectral form, but any Status Effects they had before transitioning would still persist. This led to issues such as their transition animation being slowed down considerably by Cold Status Effects that were inflicted while in their corporeal form. Refined the volume of Tombfinger’s explosion sound effects. Removed the “Arcane” button from the Foundry. When the Arcane Segment was added to the Orbiter in 2022, this button was left in the Foundry as a means for players to get used to the new location. Now that it’s been over a year, the Arcane Segment is officially the spot for all things Arcanes! Optimizations: Made optimizations to level loading and texture streaming to improve load times for systems that can only render at 30 FPS. Top Fixes: Fixed Operator getting stuck infinitely Void Blasting after switching from Warframe to Operator while auto-meleeing. We are aware of and investigating other issues related to Auto-Melee that we’re hoping to fix for Dante Unbound. Fixed Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance ability not activating Tennokai. Fixed alt-fire for Secondary weapons and Incarnon Mode not activating when dual wielding with Glaive. Fixed certain Arcanes (including but not limited to: Arcane Victory, Arcane Avenger, and Arcane Grace) having “0” in their Buff icons instead of the actual stat. Fixed the Grimoire’s alt-fire not benefitting from Multishot Mods. Multishot Mods will now properly increase its alt-fire’s chain depth. Fixed Zephyr’s Tornadoes having an unintended damage cap of 500k. The cap was causing Tornadoes to lose their adapted Elemental Damages and the ability to absorb new source damage once it had been hit. Additionally, we fixed Electricity damage endlessly chaining between enemies in the Tornadoes and unintentionally contributing to the absorbed damage total. Fixed being able to gain Melee Combo by unconventional means if your Melee Combo Duration was negative. Indirectly also fixed Heavy Attacks not consuming from Combo Counter when Melee Combo Duration was negative. Fixed weapons with a higher max Melee Combo Multiplier (such as Venka Prime) being unable to increase their Combo Counter beyond 12x (and resetting to 0) when using the Rauta and Tandem Bond Mod. Fixed UI becoming unresponsive in the Upgrades screen of the Arsenal after switching from keyboard/mouse to controller by using the shoulder buttons to swap between categories. Fixed Melee Animosity no longer functioning after activating and deactivating Titania’s Razorwing. Fixed Melee Animosity not triggering on Glave hits while dual wielding with Secondary weapon. Fixed Melee Influence’s buffs applying to clones spawned from Warframe abilities (ex: Mirage’s Hall of Mirror clones). While this has been a popular combination, it has also been the source of many severe performance issues that can crash players. We have removed this interaction in the name of stability for the game. Fixed Primary and Melee Arcanes being triggered by Secondary Weapons while on K-Drive/Merulina. Fixed Melee Influence being triggered by Dual Ichor Incarnon’s Toxin fields. Melee Influence is intended to trigger “On Melee Electricity Status” and not from secondary effects (as they are not considered direct Melee hits). Since the Toxin fields deal damage independently of Melee attacks, it does not meet the Arcane’s criteria of triggering only if the Electricity Status originates from the weapon in hand. Fixed Last Gasp getting canceled (and as a result killing Operator/Drifter) after hitting the Melee attack binding. Now, the Melee attack binding needs to be held down to end Last Gasp before it times out. Fixed Clients experiencing a complete loss of functionality if they are Maw Feeding while Host starts the Dax Equitem fight in Duviri. Fixed a bug with Trinity’s Well of Life and self-stagger-inducing weapons that allowed Thumpers in the Plains of Eidolon to be one-shot. In order to address this bug, the Well of Life wisps will no longer spawn from self-staggering and as an additional precaution to prevent similar issues from occurring, they now negate 5% (previously 10%) of the maximum Health of non-ability immune bosses (non-boss targets still receive 10%). While we understand this may have been a popular way to use the ability, the interaction with certain boss units, such as Thumpers, allowed players to bypass the intended gameplay loops that make these units challenging in comparison to standard enemies. Fixed loss of function after selecting the “Visit Maroo” button from the Ayatan Treasures screen when accessed from the Arsenal. This button will no longer appear if accessing the Ayatan Treasures screen from the Arsenal (Upgrade > Mods > Ayatan Treasures). Fixed Orokin Eye and Kahl Beacon not consuming Air Support Charges. Fixed being unable to do the quick time event in the “She Gives, We Live” stage of The New War Quest with a controller. Fixes towards network issues causing Mastery Rank Test completions to register as failures. In extreme cases, where you lose network connection for 30 seconds or more, it is likely that you can still be forcibly disconnected and mark the Test as failed as a result. We have added a loading spinner to help inform you that we are waiting for network issues to pass to save test results. General Fixes: Fixed a combination of Magus Aggress and the Tenacious Bond Mod (when equipped on both Khora’s Venari and Companion) causing buff icons to disappear. Fixed being unable to swap Polarities on a Melee weapon if you do not own the Tennokai Segment. Fixed a crash caused by Status Effects spreading from Melee Influence. Fixed failing first attempt at the Mastery Rank 19 stealth Test causing enemies to spawn facing the player and detecting them immediately - ultimately causing them to fail the test. Fixed Gauss’ Noble Animation Set having a noticeable “pop” when looping - it has been smoothed out for a more seamless loop! Fixed Excalibur Umbra’s Exalted Blade not draining Energy after being disarmed while dual wielding with Glaive. Fixed Exalted Melee weapons (ex: Excalibur’s Exalted Blade) experiencing animation issues if they were deactivated after parrying. Fixed being unable to switch back to Secondary weapon after hitting the “Switch Weapon” binding while Exalted Melee weapon is active and you don’t have a Primary weapon equipped. Fixed the Aero Set Mods unintentionally increasing the duration of Double Tap’s “20% Bonus Damage on next Shot for 2s” buff. Fixed Weapon Mods and Arcanes that have “on kill” effects (such as Primary Merciliness, Galvanized Chamber, etc.) being triggered all at once upon entering a Rampart Turret. Fixed the Akarius appearing in Teshin’s Cave instead of Akarius Prime if you own both. Fixed the Grimoire’s Default Config in Teshin’s Cave using Rifle Mods instead of Secondary Mods. Fixed the blue VFX from the Kaithe stage of the Steel Path Orowyrm fight lingering for the rest of the fight after Host migration. Fixed opening pause menu while transitioning from Open Landscape to Town (ex: Orb Vallis to Fortuna) leading to a loss of function. Fixed an objective marker in Octavia’s Anthem Quest leading players into a room that has a difficult to find exit. The marker has been adjusted to properly guide players to where they should be going. Fixed Argo & Vel being unable to damage enemies through bushes/foliage in Duviri. Fixed the Argo Mace (of the Argo & Vel Melee weapon) turning invisible after exiting the Shawzin Emote (including when playing it as an objective in Duviri). Fixed Endo and Orokin Catalyst/Reactor Blueprints missing from the Sortie & Archon Hunt rewards UI in the world state window. Fixed the friendly Necramech in the “Locate Father Within the Cambion Drift” stage of the Heart of Deimos Quest dropping resources from Albrecht’s Laboratories instead of the Cambion Drift. Fixed the Shadows created from Sevagoth’s Shadow Haze Augment not using the Glaukus Skin if equipped. Fixed Riven Challenge descriptions in the Challenges screen being cut short. Fixed Father using unranked Entrati Syndicate voice lines regardless of what Rank you are in the Entrati Syndicate. Fixed Daughter saying a line about Brother when visiting her for the first time in the Heart of Deimos Quest (at this point in the Quest, you had not met Brother yet, which was understandably confusing). Fixed audio not triggering correctly when marking Tomes in the Paragrimm’s Tomes Recovery Duviri side objective. Fixed Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance missing its special sound effect when performing a Heavy Attack, as reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1381691-kullervos-wrathful-advance-no-longer-growls-on-heavy-attacks/ Fixed parts of certain Drekar Grineer units being completely black. Fixed missing sound during “Finding Squad” after selecting mission node. Fixed the minimap markers for Hyena Pack being yellow instead of the intended red. Fixed Conclave/Index scoreboard UI overlapping with the other options in the mission progress screen. Fixed a couple of crashes in Conclave Dedicated Servers. Fixed minor typo in the Ekhein’s Blueprint Market description. Fixed “Tradeable” label appearing in the Relic Pack Market UI. The Relics themselves are tradeable, not the pack - this was creating confusion that the pack itself was its own standalone item that could be traded. Fixed lip sync missing on some transmissions in the Saya’s Vigil Quest. Fixed Ordis inbox transmissions repeating. Fixed the Exilus Slot appearing for Melee weapons in the Upgrade screen even if you don’t own the Tennokai Segment. Fixed Mod Slots overlapping in the Zaw Gild screen if the Tennokai Segment isn’t installed. Fixed Erra getting stuck in certain areas during the “Approach Praghasa” stage of The New War Quest. Fixed clipping issues with the Operator’s Zariman Suit during the final cinematic of The Second Dream Quest. Fixed offset issues with the Doppline Prime Armor set on several Warframes. Fixed players being unable to deploy Extractors on Deimos if they haven’t completed the Albrecht’s Laboratories nodes. Players only need to complete the base nodes (pre-Whispers in the Walls Quest) to be able to use Extractors on Deimos. Fixed lighting issues with Rhino’s Iron Skin that would cause it to look black. Fixed Yareli getting stuck in an infinite respawn loop after falling off of Merulina into the lake in the center of Vay Hek’s arena (Oro, Earth). Fixed Drone in the “Escort the Drone to Safety” Bounty stage getting stuck going up a hill near Gara Toht Lake in the Plains of Eidolon. Fixed the Dual Swords Lunaeus Skin missing its ribbon attachments. Also adjusted Sugatra offsets on the skin to work better with the ribbons. Fixed Velocitus’ projectile speed being 100 m/s instead of the intended 500 m/s. Changed it to accelerate from 100 m/s to 500 m/s extremely fast, so that enemies within 8m can still be hit. Fixed performance issues after entering Command Mode as Kahl in the “Prison Break” Break Narmer. Fixed Clients with connectivity issues seeing four identical symbols on the Isolation Vault door. Fixed the Tenno Guide prioritizing side objectives and quests (Mastery Rank Tests, Junctions, etc.) instead of the main story Quests. Fixed the videos in the Drifter Intrinsics screen not being cropped. PlayStation Specific Notes: Fixed the Batch Remove Friends option not working on PlayStation. Also fixed a confusing/unrelated pop-up when attempting to batch remove friends. Fixed being able to gift TennoGen items that are not available on Nintendo Switch from an Xbox or PlayStation account to a Switch account that is not linked to an Xbox or PlayStation account. Since TennoGen item availability can differ per platform (due to each item requiring licensing for use on Console platforms, as outlined here), we want to prevent players from purchasing a gift that the receiver cannot use. It’s worth noting that TennoGen items that are available on Switch can still be gifted regardless of account link status.
  2. PSN Whispers in the Walls: Hotfix #11 Hello Tenno! This hotfix predominantly contains behind-the-scenes changes in preparation for today’s launch of the 2024 Lunar New Year celebration items for the Year of the Dragon 🐉 Fixes: Fixed a script error in the Clan/Alliance Message of the Day that would cause chat to break for players who interacted with it. Fixed the UI in the Shiny Treasures Offerings in the Sanctum Anatomica not indicating if a Decoration is “owned” and how many the player has in their inventory.
  3. Greetings Tenno! I’ll make this fast - Gauss Prime has sprinted onto all platforms, so let’s blow past the first Riven changes of 2024. In our last series of changes, we announced that we would try our best to avoid Disposition decreases, instead focusing on more direct changes to weapons and specific interactions if necessary. This is still our philosophy for the year going forward, so enjoy the following Riven Disposition increases - thanks everyone! PRIMARIES SECONDARIES MELEES ARCHGUNS
  4. Cross Platform Save Fixes: Fixed the inability to Merge your Console account if you had to make a new PC Account in order to Merge. If you encountered the issue and did not link the accounts, the website should now say the accounts will be merged If you encountered the issue and did link the accounts, please contact support Fixed some Merged accounts not getting various Quest inboxes which resulted in an inability to start the Quests. Fixed Helminth abilities from the merged account being unlocked on the Primary Account. Helminth abilities are determined by the chosen Primary Account.

  7. PSN Whispers in the Walls: Hotfix #5 Topaz Archon Shard Fixes: Fixed Topaz Archon Shard traits applying the buffs every 5 kills instead of every kill where described. Fixed the Shield regen buff provided by a Topaz Archon Shard not functioning. You will not get the Shield regen buff when a Blast damage is applied. Fixed the Secondary Critical Chance buff provided by the Topaz Archon Shard not functioning. Fixes: Fixed various Abilities not respecting Boss immunity status on all Octopede bosses. Octopede bosses are now more in line with other enemy bosses. Fixed a crash related to Rogue Culverins using Necramech consoles. Fixed a crash related to The Severed Warden. Fixed another case where you could place multiple Vigil Jahu Gargoyle’s in the Dojo. Additionally, we’ve added an error message when you attempt to duplicate the Decoration. Fixed the World State Window in your Orbiter displaying 0% below your actual progress % for Operation: Gargoyle's Cry. Hotfix #4 had a partial fix for this, it should be working properly now. Fixed incorrect throwing animation during the Alchemy mission if you re-joined the squad due to a Host Migration.

Fixed incorrect throwing animation during the Alchemy mission if you re-joined the squad due to a Host Migration.
  9. Whispers in the Walls: Hotfix #4 Operation: Gargoyle’s Cry Changes and Fixes: You can now access the Operation Store via Vigile Jahu Gargoyles in other players’ clans! Note: You cannot contribute to their Curse progress, but you’ll be able to purchase wares with Grotesque Splinters. Increased reward sorting importance for Curses and Grotesque Splinters so they now appear near the top of the list in the Mission Progress screen. The Fragmented Trio (Anchorite/Suzerain/Zelator) will now search out cloaked opponents if they sense a hiding enemy nearby, instead of just giving up. Now, these enemies will use their area-of-effect attacks to find you if they sense you're hidden nearby! Adjusted the Fragmented Trio's beam attack to better match its effects. Adjusted secret boss’s Cascading Fragmentation ability to deal more damage and scale more aggressively, but be triggered later in the fight. Fixed secret boss not dropping Stela. Fixes towards killing the Void Angel not registering in Effervo, preventing players from completing the mission. Fixed Titania still being able to float if Razorwing was disabled in secret boss fight. Fixed Steel Path Effervo Assassinate enemy level calculation to be more consistent. Fixed Gargoyle’s Cry not appearing at the top of the Operation tab in the Star Chart. Fixed various crashes related to host migrations on Effervo (Deimos). Fixed a script error related to Operation: Gargoyle’s Cry. Fixed the ability to place multiple Vigile Jahu Gargoyles in Clan Dojos. These decorations have 0 capacity cost so as to not restrict Clans from placing them -- as a result, they are limited to 1 per Dojo with performance concerns (and your tolerance for a certain Cavia member’s sass) in mind. Fixed Operation rewards being affected by boosters if picked up in a specific way. Fixed the World State Window in your Orbiter displaying 0% progress for the Operation. Also fixed goal progress being shown here if you did not complete Whispers in the Walls. Changes: Updated the description in the confirmation window of Archon Shard Coalescent Fusion to indicate it is a permanent action. Players will now be prompted to type “Confirm” to complete the fusion. “Archon Shard fusion is permanent. This action cannot be undone. Type CONFIRM to confirm.” Added a waypoint marker to lore fragment drops from Mocking/Scathing Whispers. Changed Mocking/Scathing Whispers’ enemy waypoint to be white to help it stand out amongst other objective waypoints. The Tennokai Mod Bundle no longer requires completion of the Whispers in the Walls Quest to purchase in the Market. Players can access Tennokai without the Melee Upgrade Segment installed in their Arsenal, so we see no reason to lock it behind Quest completion. Changed Cavia Syndicate minimap markers to be yellow to improve visibility. Renamed “Promotion” Clan Role to “Promoter” to be consistent with other Role naming. Updated Topaz Archon Shard Blast Damage embed bonus description to more clearly communicate the effect. Now: “Gain X Health per enemy killed with Blast Damage." Added missing sound effects to the Bounty Portal in Sanctum Anatomica. Adjusted the Sanctum Anatomica elevator sound effects to have a clearer spool up and tweaked the sounds to be at less of a high pitched frequency. Reduced the amount of Rogue Culverin weak points required in the Cavia bounty challenge to address players having difficulty completing it. Adjusted Rogue Culverin weak point explosion to scale with level and do less damage to players. Optimizations: Made various small server optimizations. Fixes: Fixes towards Heavy Attacking while using Transference causing players to be stuck in an endless Void Blast loop as Operator/Drifter. We cannot guarantee this is a perfect fix, but after testing we hope that this issue should be less prevalent at the very least! Fixed Murmur Spawners leaving behind an incredibly bright light in Albrecht’s Laboratories missions. Fixed additional cases of Whispers in the Walls Quest completion inboxes not being received by players. Those who were still missing Quest rewards should see the messages in your inbox upon login! Fixed The Severed Warden not counting towards "Kill x Flying Murmur Enemies" Cavia bounty challenges. Fixed The Murmur Assassination (Effervo) and Alchemy (Cambire) missions on Deimos not having session lock checkpoints. Now players will not be able to join your squad once the following objectives are complete in your missions: After the first Vitreum scanner is deployed on Effervo After the first Crucible is filled on Cambire. Fixed enemy levels not increasing over time in Steel Path Alchemy missions. Fixed failing a Netracell mission counting towards the weekly limit if the player aborted or failed the mission after the Vault was opened. Fixed Topaz Archon Shard Secondary Crit buff not functioning as intended. Also fixed the Tauforged variant being capped at 50% instead of the 75%. Fixed Topaz Archon Shard bonuses being capped at the value of 1 Shard regardless if multiple Shards were embedded. Now if you have 5 Topaz Shards embedded, your Secondary Crit Chance would be capped at 250% instead of only 50% before, as an example. Fixed Melee Influence spreading status effects applied to invulnerable enemies. Fixed Melee Influence being able to trigger Exodia Force. Fixed Critical Mutation Catabolyst Augment incorrectly applying its Critical Chance and Critical Damage buffs, leading to significantly higher than intended damage output. Fixed Hydroid’s Tentacle Swarm throwing Murmur enemies into the air instead of grabbing them. Fixed Nautilus’ Cordon Precept affecting enemies that should be immune to crowd control effects. Fixed Yareli not automatically dropping off Defixio in the Extraction zone when she is riding Merulina in Abyssal Zone missions. Fixed Steel Path Effervo Assassinate enemy level calculation to be more consistent. Fixed Voruna’s Shroud of Dynar not being extended with melee kills. Fixed Aerodynamic’s Wall Latch duration stat not properly scaling with Mod Rank in the Arsenal or Mod Menu. This was a UI only bug and had no impact in-mission. Fixed players not retaining rewards or Affinity from Stage 1 of the Whispers in the Walls Quest. The End of Mission screen will not appear upon extraction as a stylistic decision, but you should actually keep all that you’ve earned now! Fixed Mocking/Scathing Whispers becoming invulnerable if affected by Cold procs during certain points of the fight. Fixed Loid having a nose ring in a cutscene in the Whispers in the Walls Quest. Fixed a crash related to the Cataboylst Critical Mutation Augment. Fixed a wall clipping into the map on an Albrecht’s Laboratories tile. Fixed Loid missing collision in Stage 9 of Whispers in the Walls Quest. Fixed animation warping for Rogue Culverins when interacting with consoles. Fixed using the wrong throwing animation upon rejoining an Alchemy mission. Fixes towards new inbox message notification popping up while in Quest Complete screens. You’ll still get those notifications when you leave the screen, now they won’t ruin the moment. Fixed Vitreum scanner dispensers still rotating towards players when they are inactive. Fixed enemies on Tyana Pass spawning in front of players. Fixed only receiving the first round Mirror Defense rotation rewards when playing a bounty on Munio (Deimos). Fixed Saryn’s Molt, Titania’s Razorwings, and Loki’s Decoy spawning Alchemy amphors on death. Fixed being unable to extract in Survival Bounties on Persto (Deimos) if Life Support runs out. Fixed Stalker being able to drop multiple items in Munio Mirror Defense. Check out our Known Issues thread!
  10. Whispers in the Walls: Hotfix #2 Changes: Reduced the Cavia Rank required to acquire the Helminth Coalescent Fusion Segment from 4 to 2. This relates to Loid sending you an Inbox message upon reaching Rank 2 that the Segment is now available. Temporarily replaced the “Kill X Dargyn Pilots before they hit the ground” Riven challenge with “Kill X Enemies with Headshots”. There is a bug that prevents this challenge from gaining progress (as reported here), so we have replaced it while we continue to investigate. Added motion blur to Ayatan Sculptures, a particularly depressed character, and the Necramite drone in the Sanctum Anatomica. Added the Netracell rewards to the public Drop Tables. The team is working on fixing other discrepancies such as missing Cavia Bounty tables, and Alchemy/Mirror Defense being listed incorrectly. UPDATE: The information currently listed for Netracells and other Albrecht's Labs missions is not currently accurate. We are investigating and will remedy in a future hotfix. Improved visibility of the “Dissolve Arcanes” button in the Arcane Dissolution vendor screen in the Sanctum Anatomica. Updated the Duviri Senate Seat Orbiter Decoration’s colors to differentiate it from the Dojo version, which has also been renamed to Duviri Slipper Chair. Changed Mandonel’s crosshair to remove unnecessary charge bar and fix cases of flickering. Reduced Cavia member collisions so players don't bounce off of them. Whispers in the Walls Quest Changes & Fixes: Energy Orbs will now drop from enemies during the Arthur segment of the quest to let you cast his abilities more often! Fixed players not receiving items from the quest (notably the Grimoire) if they encountered network issues at the point they’d be delivered to their accounts. Fixed mission failing in the first stage of the quest. The quest would progress but players would see “Mission Failure” and not receive the items they had collected during the mission. Fixed the objective marker pointing to the Netracall during the quest being duplicated. Fixed cases where the waypoint markers for the Necramite Drones wouldn’t appear during the Netracell stage of the quest. Fixed being able to sell the Grimoire to prevent progression issues in the quest. If you have sold the Grimoire and are unable to progress in the quest, please create a ticket with our Support Team. Fixed being able to interact with the Grimoire as Sevagoth’s Shadow during a pivotal fight of the quest. Fixed certain VFX not appearing for Drifter during finale of quest. Fixed the door to Laboratory Navigation in the Sanctum Anatomica opening when it should be locked during certain stages of the quest. This was causing confusion since players would hear it opening but the door before leading to it was locked. Fixed a certain gate not being locked in the quest if you got there too early. Fixed a rare script error related to a camera in the Sanctum Anatomica during the quest. Fixed a several script errors in the quest. Fixed your companion’s icon showing up in the HUD during the 1999 section of the Whispers in the Walls Quest. Fixed players becoming permanently slowed if they were Operator/Drifter during a certain segment of the first mission in the quest. Fixed players being able to extract early from a certain quest mission without completing the objective (and missing out on some cool cutscenes, if we do say so ourselves). Netracell Changes & Fixes: Necramite drones in the Netracell missions now have Health Bars to better identify them as the ones needing to be destroyed. Added an additional react sound effect to the Necramite Drones in the Netracell missions when they are hit. Added a UI sound for when the Netracell is ready to be opened. Fixed teleporting into the Netracell after clipping through the map at a certain location. It will now teleport players to the waypoint outside of the Netracell. Fixed the Necratite Drones that need to be destroyed in Netracell missions rarely having their pulsing blue VFX. Now that this has been fixed, you should be able to better identify them for destruction! Fixed the hacking progress bar in Netracell missions momentarily resetting after Host Migration. Fixed a script error when Host Migrating after hacking terminal during a Netracell mission. Cavia Bounties Changes & Fixes: Cavia Bounties offer new challenges to complete, but sometimes the tiles generated for the mission prevented players from progressing, or players otherwise had issues completing them. As a result, we have either removed or fixed the following challenges to help improve Bounty flow! Temporarily removed the “Kill X Rogue Necramechs” Bounty challenge. There is an issue with Rogue Necramechs not always spawning that we are still investigating, so we have removed this challenge for the time being since it is difficult to complete while this bug is active. Temporarily removed “Kill X Flying Murmurs” challenges from Cavia Bounty rotations as only one flying Murmur enemy type was counting as progress towards it. We aim to re-add this challenge once we’re able to fix the issue. Temporarily removed the “Summon Necramech” challenge from Cavia Bounty rotations as players were unable to consistently complete them. We aim to re-add this challenge once we’re able to fix the issue. Fixed not enough Murmur Sarcophages spawning in the Mirror Defense (Munio, Deimos) mission to complete the “Find X Murmur Sarcophages” Bounty challenge. We also made it so that tiles with guaranteed Murmur Sarcophage spawns will always appear in Survival (Persto, Deimos) missions to address the same issue of being unable to complete the challenge. Also increased the number of Murmur Sarcophage spawns in various Albrecht’s Laboratories tiles to further improve player chances of finding them. Removed the “Douse enemies in Vitriol” Bounty challenge from the Exterminate (Nex, Deimos) and Assassination (Effervo, Deimos) missions. It was possible to complete these missions before this challenge, which would make enemies stop spawning and therefore make it impossible to extract (since the Bounty challenge was not complete). Albrecht’s Laboratories Mission Changes & Fixes: Adjusted resource drop rates in Albrecht's Laboratories Entrati Coffers and Murmur Sarcophages to slightly decrease rates in more common crates, and increase rates in rarer ones. Fixed Stela having an unintentionally high drop rate on various Murmur enemies. Fixed players being unable to select Steel Path missions in the Sanctum Anatomica’s mission selection screen. Improved the way the Auto Breach Parazon Mod interacts with the new hacking terminals to make it clearer that had been used. Improved waypoint pathfinding in Albrecht’s Laboratories missions. Fixed Entrati Obols falling through the map. Fixed rewards earned during the Alchemy (Cambire, Deimos) not appearing in the mission progress screen. Fixed the reward pop-up after completing a round of Survival on Persto, Deimos not occurring. Also fixed the rewards not appearing in the End of Mission screen after extracting. Fixed Alchemy Crucible progress in the UI resetting and not tracking properly after Host Migration. Fixed multiple Crucibles appearing after Host Migrations in Alchemy missions. Fixed the ground rifts that Fragmented enemies crawl out from not appearing in non-quest Albrecht Laboratories’ missions while the quest is active. Fixed the explosion preview VFX for the Vitriol Phials not appearing in Albrecht’s Laboratories if the mission was started as a Bounty or from the Laboratory Navigation. This is a new feature that was released with Update 35 that allows you to see the explosion radius by hovering your reticle over the explosive item! Fixed rare care of tileset issues occurring (lighting and map holes) when transitioning between defense targets in the Mirror Defense (Munio, Deimos) mission. Fixed a script error in Assassination mission (Effervo, Deimos). Fixed several script errors from abilities cast by a certain bookbound enemy. Fixed the bookbound enemy’s avatar lingering after death. Fixed several script errors when extracting from Albrecht’s Laboratories missions. Fixed a map hole in the tileset. Fixed various minor map holes and a spot where players could get stuck in Albrecht’s Laboratories tileset. Fixed a crash in the missions. General Fixes: Fixed the Tyana Pass, Mars Mirror Defense mission not starting after entering the defense target’s radius. Fixed the Update Highlights screen using the previous update instead of the latest. If you’d like to read through the previous updates in that screen there is a “Update History” button! Fixed player’s Warframe casting a “shadow” over the Update Screen windows, resulting in players being unable to read the text. Fixed Cavia members saying the wrong voice lines if players were Rank 0 in the Syndicate. Fixed lighting issue in Qorvex’s in-game Market diorama. Fixed Sevagoth’s energy VFX in the diorama for Sevagoth’s Glaukus Collection appearing black instead of the default white. Fixed Albrecht’s Notes Fragments not showing up in the order they are unlocked in the Codex. Fixed Wisp not having her custom running animation when using the Grimoire. Fixed weapons going invisible after deploying Heavy Archgun in open zones. Fixed being unable to interact with the Duviri Torch Flame Dojo Decoration after placing it. Also fixed its capacity cost being 1 instead of the intended 20. Fixed several offset issues with Sevagoth’s Glaukus Skin. More fixes to come! Fixed several script errors from a particular machine in the Sanctum Anatomica. Fixed a script error when selecting a Warframe in the Arsenal. Fixed a script error in Qorvex’s Chyrinka Pillar ability. Fixed several script errors when Ranking up a Mod. Fixes towards a crash caused by Grimoire's Alt Fire Check out our Known Issues thread!
  11. Abyss of Dagath: Hotfix #7 Companion Changes & Fixes: Contagious Bond: Enemies inflicted by damage over time Status Effects will now spread 50% of the tick damage when killed to other enemies. Prior to this change, damage over time procs would only tick 1 damage on enemies it spread to. Now, it’ll apply 50% (at max rank) of the tick damage originating from the killed enemy. The following Companion Precept Mods now benefit from Manifold Bond: Diriga’s Electro Pulse Djinn’s Fatal Attraction The ability cooldown effect from Manifold Bond already applied to Fatal Attraction, but not its Status Effect application to Companion weapons, so now it properly and wholly benefits from the Mod. Djinn’s Fatal Attraction will no longer cause affected enemies to focus fire solely on Djinn after they’ve been lured. Prior to this change, Djinn could get incapacitated very quickly after luring. Now enemies will return to their default targeting after being lured to help keep the little guy alive after doing his job. Fixed enemies killed by Contagious Bond’s spread Status Effects not granting Affinity. Fixed damage dealt to enemies from Contagious Bond’s spread Status Effects not registering for other Companion mod triggers (e.g. Energy Generator, Synth Deconstruct, etc.). Fixed performance issues caused by Dethcube (with Fired up, Firestorm, and Fire Rate and Multshots Mods) attacking enemies trapped in Zephyr’s Tornado. Fixed MOA Companions permanently dying if they were ragdolled a certain way. Fixed a script error with the Mecha Mod set. Changes: Warframe idle audio will now be muted when in the Dojo Research menus. Fixes: Fixed Dagath’s Rakhali’s Cavalry stripping defenses from bosses with resistances to Warframe abilities (e.g. Eidolons and Profit-Taker). Fixed Clients receiving self-damage while shooting the Furis in Incarnon Form inside of a bullet attractor field (notably Xaku’s Whisper). Fixed raising/lowering Clan tier not properly adjusts the Research costs of active research resulting in zero/negative values. As reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1368438-clan-research-costs-are-negative/ Fixed getting a “Reconfiguration could not be completed. Your account has not been charged. Please try again later” error when quickly cycling a Riven back to back. Fixed the Energy numbers in the Railjack HUD and Tactical Map displaying incorrectly. Fixed the “Incarnon Upgrade Available” Orbiter pop-up occurring when you already have all of the Incarnon’s upgrades unlocked.
  12. ABYSS OF DAGATH: UPDATE 34 Gather round and listen well, Tenno: Grandmother is back with another spine-chilling Naberus tale to commemorate the spookiness of the season! Build and enter the new Dagath’s Hollow Dojo Room to learn the sullen and tragic backstory of the faceless horse rider who stalks the Origin System in search of retribution: the terrifying 54th Warframe, Dagath. A doomed Abyssal Zone Exterminate mission calls for Tenno aid aboard a drifting Galleon. Answer the cry for help and be rewarded for your efforts! Rewards from completing the mission are used to craft Dagath and her signature weapon Dorrclave. Grendel Prime Access is also here! Feast your eyes and gain instant access to Grendel Prime, Masseter Prime, Zylok Prime, and his Prime Accessories. This update also features heaps of Quality of Life changes, improvements and more covering a wide array of content. Including the Hydroid Rework, Companion Rework, New Player Path Improvements, Accessibility & HUD Improvements, and much more! As announced in Devstream 173, Cross Platform Play Clans will also be launching in the near future now that Abyss of Dagath is live! A dedicated thread will be posted on launch with all of the details. Abyss of Dagath is a Mainline Update! Meaning that everything the team has been working on since the launch of Echoes of Duviri is in this update (with the obvious exception of content that is not ready to be released). It is very likely, as it is with all Mainline updates, that things slip through the cracks so we will be watching for bug reports and feedback in the Dedicated Abyss of Dagath Subforums to address in follow-up Hotfixes. If any of the terms above are new to you, visit “The Warframe Lexicon for Updates” to learn more about Warframe’s development cycle. Download Size: ~1.24 GB* *Accounts for the new shaders with the Enhanced Graphics Renderer, Mainline content and large sound asset file sizes** that require a secondary 400 MB download to occur within the Warframe launcher after downloading the update from Nintendo. **We are investigating a fix for this for the next cert update!

This means that the Classic Graphics Renderer has officially been retired on consoles. PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X launched with Enhanced, and last-gen have been using it by default since Citrine’s Last Wish. Now that it has been brought to Nintendo Switch with the release of Abyss of Dagath, we have met our goal of unifying the rendering framework across all platforms! Now, all Tenno can experience the new GI volume lighting system, decal system, tattoos, facial hair, and more that help raise the overall quality of Warframe. Which is very exciting, as the next major update in 2023 for Warframe “Whispers In The Wall” was built on all its features and tools to create a stunning visual experience!

Fixed an issue on Nintendo Switch where friends could incorrectly appear in the friend’s list with a Mastery Rank of 0, regardless of their actual Rank. Fixed potential performance issue when changing the Color Correction option on Nintendo Switch. NEW EXTERMINATE NODE: ABYSSAL ZONE A group of initiates, sent jointly by the Pledged Syndicates need help finishing a doomed mission to recover Orokin Era Defixios from a Galleon of Grineer raiders adrift in the Abyssal Zone, looming near Ceres. These tablets were plundered from an archaeological dig site known as Villa Irillia, former home to a powerful and debaucherous Orokin couple. They possess a certain cursed energy, inflicting those who carry it in sinister ways. Cut down the Grineer forces to keep them out of their hands and to clear a path for the initiates to make their escape. All while reaping the reward that lies within the salvaged Defixios. Requirements: Achieve Rank 2 in any of the Pledged Syndicates (Steel Meridian, Arbiters of Hexis, Cephalon Suda, The Perrin Sequence, Red Veil, and New Loka). An inbox message is sent upon doing so! How to Play: Abyssal Beacons are the key to locating the Grineer Galleon in the Abyssal Zone near Ceres, otherwise perpetually obscured by darkness. Acquire them with 5,000 Standing from any of the Pledged Syndicate’s Offerings to pinpoint the Abyssal Zone Node on Ceres. Players can tackle the task either solo or with a premade squad - one Abyssal Beacon is consumed upon completing the mission (from the player who started the mission vote). In this mission you have two objectives: 1. Exterminate the required amount of enemies 2. Recover a Defixio by delivering it to the Extraction Point There are a total of 8 Defixios hidden on the ship, but only one per player is required to be recovered and deposited in the Extraction Zone (4 total for full squad) to complete the mission. While only one Defixio per player is required, you can assist your squadmates by dropping off more in the zone after you have successfully delivered your own. Upon entering the zone, the extra Defixios will count towards your squadmates’ objective. Players carrying Defixios outside of the extraction zone when the timer runs out will also have their deposit counted. Syndicate Agents, desperate to escape the hellscape they found themselves in, are hiding around the Galleon and are eager to share their intel on the location of Defixios - look for their Ally map markers and interact with them to mark an area on the map where a Defixio can be found. Look for the telltale red glow around a Defixio to find it and pick it up. Similar to Datamasses, players carrying a Defixio will still be able to use their Secondary and Melee weapons, and can pick up or drop their payload at will. Mission Hazards: Finding and extracting Defixios comes at a cost, Tenno. A random debuff is applied for the duration that it is carried, making the journey to Extraction more challenging. The following debuffs can be applied: Phantom Curse: Gravity is reduced. Scarcity Curse: Your Ammo depletes steadily. Battery weapons recharge slowly. Echo Curse: Take damage when you cast Abilities. Hunter Curse: Take damage as you move. Land jumps for a brief reprieve from this curse. Exposure Curse: Your Shields get removed. Blood Curse: Your Health drains steadily. Killing enemies restores it. Weariness Curse: Your energy drains steadily. Shadow Curse: Your light source dims steadily. Melee kills brighten it. Additionally, nearing the required amount of slain enemies will trigger a call for reinforcements, turning your mission into an Eximus Stronghold until you successfully extract. Steel Path Modifiers: The usual Steel Path difficulty modifiers are enabled in the Abyssal Zone, but with a toxic twist! Grineer Nox reinforcements have a higher chance of spawning in The Steel Path. Reward - New Resource: Vainthorn Completing the mission rewards 6-8x Vainthorns (8, 11, and 12 on The Steel Path) - a new resource found within Defixios. The rare thorn of an extinct rose, and a vital component in Orokin Defixios and other technology. It is used to craft Dagath and the Dorrclave. NEW WARFRAME: DAGATH Never underestimate the power and wrath of sullen sadness. Dagath’s malice deals high damage. Passive: Abundant Abyss There is a 35% chance that Energy and Health Orbs will be 300% more effective on Dagath. Wyrd Scythes Wyrd Scythes surround Dagath and seek out nearby enemies. Those struck are slowed and suffer Viral Damage with a guaranteed Status Effect. The scythes also spread Doom and extend its duration. Wyrd Scythes is Dagath’s Helminth ability (Altered: Diminished Slow) and Railjack ability. Doom Condemn nearby enemies to their doom. A portion of the initial damage Dagath deals is revisited upon them by a Wyrd Scythe. They also suffer Viral Damage. Grave Spirit Supercharge Dagath’s weapons with extra Critical Damage. The effects are doubled on Doomed enemies. Escape fatal blows by briefly assuming a spectral form. Rakhali’s Cavalry Phantom Kaithes charge forth, inflicting Viral Damage upon all in their path. Their attack strips the defenses of Doomed enemies. How To Acquire Dagath: Dagath can be purchased for instant access in the in-game Market for Platinum or her Blueprints can be collected from the new “Dagath’s Hollow” Dojo Room (read below to learn more) and crafted using Vainthorn earned from the new Abyssal Zone Exterminate Node. With the release of Dagath, the number of purchasable loadout slots has been increased from 21 to 22. DAGATH GANCEANN HELMET Glory in the ghoulish splendor of a pierced skull. How To Acquire Dagath’s Ganceann Helmet: The Helmet can be purchased from the in-game Market. Its Blueprint will be added to the next Nora's Mix Series store - we will update you in the near future on when to expect it. NEW WEAPON: DORRCLAVE After 10 kills or assists, Dorrclave enters a spectral state that doubles weapon Follow Through and guarantees Status Effects for the next 10 attacks (Buff Name: Rising Vendetta). In Dagath's hands, each active Status Effect heals her by 6 Health. How To Acquire Dorrclave: Acquire Dorrclave’s Blueprints from the new Dagath’s Hollow Dojo Room (read below to learn more) and earn Vainthorn from the new Abyssal Zone Exterminate Node to craft its components. NEW DOJO ROOM: DAGATH’S HOLLOW Resurrect a Naberus legend with a new Dojo Room; Dagath’s Hollow. Here you will find the Shrine of Dagath, where you can acquire Dagath and Dorrclave’s Blueprints to be crafted in your Foundry.

TENNO III COLOR PALETTE Unlocks additional color options reflecting the default colors used on each standard Warframe in release order from Garuda to Dagath! SYSTEM CHANGES AND GENERAL QUALITY OF LIFE This section covers the following topics (in order): Warframe Shield Changes Base vs. Final Stats in Modding - Health / Energy / Shield / Armor Stat Overhaul Focus Lens Conversion Buff Nightwave Changes Break Narmer Mission Improvements Archon Hunt Damage Attenuation Changes Warframe Shield Changes There are many avenues for Tenno to approach Warframe survivability. Usually, it’s through increasing Health and Armor values, or making use of damage resistance features of certain Mods or Abilities, etc. For Shields, however, there is an incentive to do the opposite: the meta prior to this update encouraged players to reduce Shield values as much as possible to make use of Shield Gating mechanics. As Developers, we’re stuck in a strange position. On one hand, we see player ingenuity and creative ways of engaging with mechanics, but on the other, we see proof that Shields are not offering the same value to players as other survivability tools - to the point where you are rewarded for having the lowest Shield stat possible. We have changed this so that Tenno are incentivized to increase their Shield stat instead of reducing it. To do so, we have approached this challenge in two key ways: Firstly - we’ve buffed Tenno Shields overall! Previously: Tenno Shields offered a 25% resistance to all damage types. Now: Tenno Shields will offer a 50% resistance to all damage types. We’ve also buffed a few Shield-specific Mods with Recharge rate in mind! (values below are at max rank) Fast Deflection: Added -45% Shield Recharge Delay Fortitude: Increased the Shield Recharge value from +80% to +100%. Also increased Chance to Resist Knockdown from +20% to +40%. Vigilante Vigor: Added -30% Shield Recharge Delay These Mod buffs feed directly into the other half of our approach: Secondly - we’ve reworked Shield Gating! Shield Gating was added to the game back in 2020 with Update 27.2.0 as a way to prevent one-shots, especially at higher-level content. We feel that this mechanic accomplished that goal, but the implementation of it had an unintended side-effect: players were rewarded for having the smallest Shield stat and fastest Shield Recharge stat to make use of the Full Shield Break mechanic. As mentioned above, our intention is to offer players more benefits for having larger Shield values, so Shield Gating has been reworked. The core mechanic is staying: when you lose all Shields, you gain a period of invulnerability. What has changed is how this period of invulnerability scales with the amount of Shields you have. The changes outlined below have been made with that vision in mind: Part 1 - Shield Gate Duration will scale with the amount of Shields you had upon Shield Break. Previously: Full Shields upon Shield break offered a 1.3-second window of invulnerability. Now, depending on your Modded values, this window could be anywhere from 0.33 seconds (minimum duration) to 2.5 seconds (capped at 1150 Shields). To receive the original 1.3-second Shield Gate, players will now need around 325 Shields upon Shield Break. You can see a full overview of the Gate Duration vs. Shields Depleted in the graph below: Part 2 - Partially Depleted Shields do not have a separate Shield Gate Duration. Previously, shield breaks on Shields that were not fully regenerated offered 0.33 seconds of Shield Gating. Now, Partially Depleted Shields are treated with the same scaling values outlined above. For example, if you had a max Shield value of 1200, but your Shields were broken with only 350 available, you would receive ~1.3 seconds of Shield Gating! With these changes, the more Shields you have and the faster they regenerate, the more you’ll get out of the Shield Gating system! Part 3 - We’ve added a new Corrupted Mod: Catalyzing Shields With the changes to Shield Gating, we still wanted to offer players different ways to interact with this system without always having to Mod for the most Shields possible. To accomplish this, we have introduced a new Corrupted Mod: Catalyzing Shields. This Mod reduces your maximum Shields by 80% but also changes how Shield Gating Scaling works for your Warframe with a guaranteed 1.33 seconds of Shield Gating upon full Shield depletion. With this Mod equipped, Shield Gating duration scales from 0.33 to 1.33 based on your maximum Shield values, regardless of what they are. For example, if my maximum Shields are 100 with Catalyzing Shields equipped, I would expect the following Shield Gating durations: 100 Shields at Shield Break: 1.33s of Shield Gating 75 Shields at Shield Break: 1.0s of Shield Gating 50 Shields at Shield Break: 0.67s of Shield Gating 25 Shields at Shield Break: 0.34s of Shield Gating 10 Shields at Shield Break: 0.33s of Shield Gating As a reminder, 0.33s is the absolute minimum duration for Shield Gating! How to acquire Catalyzing Shields: Since this is a new Corrupted Mod, it is obtainable via Orokin Vaults on Deimos. An Alert for the Catalyzing Shields Mod will be available in the near future to give players faster access to this Mod to test in their builds. We will share start/end dates for that Alert soon The Alert for the Catalyzing Shields Mod is now live! Part 4 - Decaying Dragon Keys have been updated to debuff both Shields and Shield Gating. With revised Shield Gating, we felt it was important to update Decaying Dragon Keys as well. These Gear items were previously used to lower the threshold needed for Full Shield Breaks with Shield Gating, and while we loved to see players finding unique interactions between various mechanics, Dragon Keys are intended to increase difficulty when equipped. With that intention in mind, Decaying Dragon Keys now cap player Shield Gates to 0.33s maximum. Part 5 - A few other details to cover! Hildryn’s Passive has been buffed from 3s Shield Gating Duration to 3.5s Shield Gating Duration! Updated Grenade Fan’s description to better communicate how Shield Satellites work with Shield Gating. “(HOLD) SHIELD SATELLITES - Protea reconfigures Grenades to work as overcharging shield generators, protecting her, her allies and companions. When Shields break, a Satellite is destroyed to double minimum Shield Gate invincibility time.” Shield Regeneration Delay Reduction is now capped at 80%. Many Mods have now been updated to offer this benefit, leading to the possibility of stacking Shield Regen to be faster than Shield Gate expiring. Now, players should have easier access to reducing the regeneration time, without risking issues with permanent invulnerability. Guardian Break Shield Regeneration delay reduction has been decreased from 90% to 80% at max rank as a result. We have buffed this effect’s duration 8s to 12s at max rank to compensate! Updated the Shield stat on-hover description in the Upgrade Screen to describe Shield break functionality and include Shield Gate duration for your current modded max Shields. It is NOT intended for Overshields to count for Shield Gate duration. We will be removing this with required Code in our next Cert build. There are many variables that will impact the overall outcome of these Shield changes with Abyss of Dagath, and we’ll be keeping a close eye on player feedback now that this is in the community’s hands. With this update’s release, you’ll be seeing many changes in your Arsenal Upgrade screens -- both for Shield changes listed above, and the following overhaul: 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. We will only be listing Base stats for Armor changes, unless the Warframe has a different Armor stat at Max Rank. 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. Here are a few outliers before we get into the nitty-gritty of it: Lavos, Nidus, Nidus Prime, and Kullervo all have buffs to their Armor values as a result of this change. Ex: Nidus Prime’s Armor stat increased from 910 (previous) to 1,050 (new with this update) with max Steel Fiber Equipped. With all 3 Umbral Warframe Mods equipped, this buff results in a difference of 1198 Armor (previous) to 1470 Armor (new with this update). Garuda and Garuda Prime’s received buffs to their Modded Energy pool. ie. Garuda Prime’s Energy stat has been increased from 800 (previous) to 912 (new with this update) with max Primed Flow equipped. To better contextualize how these numbers have changed, we’ve also prepared a comparison asset using Excalibur: Warframe Stat Changes: Note: for those comparing Dev Workshop values and final values, the major change you will see in the stats below is a general increase in Base Rank Health and Shields. This is due to a change to how Health/Shields are earned per rank, to increase survivability of unranked Warframes, which was not properly captured in our initial Dev Workshop stats. Warframe Mod Changes: As promised, here is the comprehensive list of Mod changes to go with the stat changes above. *the values below are at Max Rank! Necramech and Archwing Changes Necramechs and Archwings have also been updated to apply Health / Shield / Energy / Armor values to Max Rank stats. We’ve prepared the following Stat and Mod changes with this in mind. Mod Changes: (values shown at max rank) Necramech Stat Changes: These changes in action using Voidrig! Archwing Stat Changes: These changes in action using Odonata! 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! Focus Lens Conversion Buff Focus acquisition can take a significant time investment, especially for those who prefer more passive farming methods. Completing all of your Focus Schools acts as a long-term goal for many players, but we felt the need to mitigate the time investment slightly. Now, Focus Lenses will offer greater conversion rates, as follows: Regular Lens: 1.25 > 2% Greater Lens: 1.75 > 3% Eidolon Lens: 2.25 > 4.25% Lua Lens: 3.25 > 5.5% Additionally, all Convergence Orbs now offer a flat 5,000 Focus bonus to your equipped Focus School upon pickup. Nightwave Changes Nora Night has been gracing our airwaves since 2019, and word is she felt it was time for a little refresh. While many of our changes are shipping in our next Nightwave Series (as outlined in our Dev Workshop), Abyss of Dagath has brought some changes to keep Nora’s Acts fun, accessible, and as always, incentivizin’. Revised Nightwave Acts In the 4 years of Nightwave history, many Acts have come and gone. This update brings revisions to existing Nightwave Acts that have been reworked with two approaches: a) to reduce the grind required to complete some Acts, and b) to expand the ways in which players can complete them! Any existing progress on these Acts will remain intact! In the case where an Act has had its requirements reduced and you have already hit that new requirement, you may need to do a single instance of the task to trigger completion (e.g. if you had 10/20 enemies killed while sliding for the Accelerator Act prior to this update, you would have to kill one more enemy while sliding for it to be marked as complete). Accelerator: Kill 10 Enemies while Sliding (was: 20) Conservationist: Complete 3 different Perfect Animal Captures in Orb Vallis (was: 6) Earth Bounty Hunter: Complete 3 different Bounties in the Plains of Eidolon (was: 5) Earth Fisher: Catch 3 Rare Fish in the Plains of Eidolon (was: 6) Earth Miner: Mine 3 Rare Gems or Ore in the Plains of Eidolon (was: 6) Eternal Guardian: Complete 2 Void Armageddon missions (was: 3) Everything Old is New Again: Complete 1 Transmutations (was: 3) Glider: Kill 15 Enemies while Aim Gliding (was: 20) Invader: Complete 6 Invasion missions of any type (was: 9) Night and Day: Collect 10 Vome or Fass Residue in the Cambion Drift. (was: 15) Night Terror: Complete 5 Nightmare missions of any type (was: 10) Researcher: Scan 15 Objects or Enemies (was: 25) Sanctuary Researcher: Complete 3 Scans for Cephalon Simaris (was: 5) Supporter: Complete 5 Syndicate missions (was: 10) Survival: Complete a Survival mission reaching at least 20 minutes (was: 30) Venus Bounty Hunter: Complete 3 different bounties in the Orb Vallis (was: 5) Venus Fisher: Catch 3 Rare Servofish in the Orb Vallis (was: 6) Venus Miner: Mine 3 Rare Gems or Ore in the Orb Vallis (was: 6) Animator: Retrieve the Ayatan Statue for Maroo in Maroo's Bazaar Previously was: Fully Socket 3 Ayatan Sculptures Now Boarding: Complete 3 different K-Drive races in Orb Vallis on Venus or in Cambion Drift on Deimos. Previously was limited to only Orb Vallis races. Thrill Rider: Kill 20 Enemies while riding a K-Drive, Kaithe, Velocipod, Merulina Expanding the eligibility of this Act to all of your trusty steeds. Previously named "Surfs Up!" The Hunt is On: Find 5 Syndicate Medallions Players will no longer have to be the one to pick up the Medallion for this to count. The Personal Touch: Place 1 decoration in your Orbiter or Dormizone Only Orbiter decorating used to count! Cache Hunter: Find 6 caches across any Sabotage missions Previously was: “Find all caches in 3 Sabotage missions” Saver: Pick up 15,000 Credits Mission credit rewards will now count towards this Act! The Many Made Whole: Functionality remains, updated description to be more accurate. Previously was: “Convert 10 Riven Slivers into a Riven Mod” Now: “Exchange 10 Riven Slivers for a Riven Mod” Introductory Nightwave Screen The first time you log in with a Nightwave Series available (Awakening and Vor’s Prize Quests must be completed), a pop-up screen will appear highlighting various Series rewards, a brief description, and a button to visit the Nightwave menu! We’re adding this to increase visibility of Nightwave for newer players who may be unfamiliar with Nora, and as a reminder when a new Nightwave has dropped! Note: The 3 Permanent Weekly Acts that were mentioned in Devstream 173 will be coming with the next Nora’s Mix Volume. Break Narmer Mission Improvements Kahl’s missions are a great way to earn an extra Archon Shard every week, but there is no denying that playing the same 3 Break Narmer missions can get repetitive. After looking at Community feedback and reflecting on our own experiences after almost a year of this content being available, we’ve prepared some Quality of Life changes and a few ways to spice up these familiar missions. General Kahl-ity of Life Changes: Kahl see more! Kahl now has Loot Radar and Enemy Radar. This will allow you to plan your offensive, and find key pick-ups to complete your Stock challenges faster! Kahl go fast! Kahl’s max speed and overall walking speed have been increased. Kahl earn stock! Added Stock Pickups to Break Narmer missions. 8 to 12 Stock Pickups will spawn per mission, offering 2 Stock each. These will appear on your Loot Radar and will respawn if the mission is replayed. Extraction is required to earn the picked-up Stock. Expanding Kahl’s Garrison: Kahl will now find additional weapons next to his fallen Brothers as a way to add more variety to his overall gameplay. Three different weapons will spawn randomly each time you play! In Junk Run* and Prison Break missions, you can find the following: Ogris Gorvakk (new shotgun found only in Break Narmer missions!) Ignis Tonkor Grinlok Jat Kittag *Once Kahl equips the Salvaged Kuva Ayanga in the Junk Run mission, these optional weapons are removed. Once the Tusk Thumper has been defeated, they will respawn. As for Sneaky Sabotage, since this mission has specific weapon restrictions, there are no plans to offer additional weapons to this mission at this time. Archon Hunt Damage Attenuation Changes Speaking of earning Archon Shards, Damage Attenuation (or “damage pillows”) may be a familiar mechanic for those who frequent Archon Hunts each week. This was a hot topic, especially near the end of 2022. Since then, we’ve taken our time to assess player feedback and devise a plan to address it -- and we’re finally at a place where we can execute it. Damage Attenuation is one tool of many to increase enemy difficulty by limiting how much damage they take from player weapons, etc. Our current form of Damage Attenuation has resulted in many weapons feeling lackluster due to the high attenuation values, and damage output was reduced significantly to balance out the post-attenuation modifiers -- meaning that Archon fights felt like a slog if players did not use a limited set of optimal builds. This is not a favorable outcome, so we have made the following changes: 1 - Maximum Damage Caps have increased Maximum Damage per Damage Instance has been increased Maximum Damage Per Second has been increased Our goal is to make big hits still feel like big hits, especially for low-rate-of-fire weapons. We’re able to reduce the damage cap significantly because of the next change: 2 - Modifiers now apply before Damage Attenuation Critical Multipliers (and other modifiers) applying post-damage-cap allowed for many of the One Shot builds to function, and for full transparency, we want to prevent One Shot Archon builds as much as possible. By changing where these modifiers apply, we can increase the Damage Caps to a much less punishing level for players. Our goals with these changes are to: Increase player damage output, thereby reducing the overall time to kill for Archons Make “big hits” feel impactful by no longer throttling them to such an extreme degree Encourage overall build diversity for Archon Hunts Reduce the ability to use one-shot builds We’re excited to see what Archon Hunts look like for players with these changes in the live build! Now that these changes have been released, we'll be keeping a close eye on player feedback and the resulting time-to-kill for Archons to see if further iteration is needed. Please share any bug reports and feedback related to any and all of the above System Changes And General Quality Of Life Changes in the official Abyss of Dagath subforums. NEW PLAYER PATH IMPROVEMENTS This section covers the following topics (in order): Removal of Flawed Mods and MK1 Weapons from Vor’s Prize Early Game Inbox and Junction Adjustments Universal Enemy Radar Quest Improvements Including Waverider, The Glast Gambit, Natah, and Vox Solaris Assassination Target Improvements Cetus Wisp and Necramech Acquisition Changes Removal of Flawed Mods and MK1 Weapons from Vor’s Prize Flawed Mods Flawed Mods are a special variant of Mods that are only accessible via the Vor’s Prize Quest and were intended to be an early introduction for players to the Modding system. Over the years, we have come to understand that these Mods have the unintended effect of players investing Endo that would be better used in the non-flawed variants. As a result, we have removed Flawed Mods from Vor’s Prize and replaced them with the normal variants. Additionally, players who already own Flawed Mods have had them replaced with the normal variant with this update's release -- excluding the April Fool’s Flawed Ammo Drum from 2016, of course. The conversion maintained the Mod rank, so a Rank 3 Flawed Vitality has become a Rank 3 Vitality, etc. Any equipped Flawed Mods have been uninstalled, so be sure to check your builds if this affects you! Flawed Mod Storage Site After posting our initial Dev Workshop outlining the Flawed Mods removal, many players expressed their desire to keep them for a variety of reasons. Luckily for those Tenno, we managed to find the original (disposal) storage site of the Flawed Mods and have made them available to players once more. Seek out the storage site near Cressa Tel in Iron Wake on Earth to purchase them anew. We did our best to price these rare finds fairly, keeping in mind that these are now collector’s items of course, so they can be yours for the cost of a few (thousand) Credits! While this is a tongue-in-cheek implementation of new Flawed Mods acquisition, we appreciate the value that these Mods offer to certain players and wanted to keep them available for those who requested it. Note: Due to the unique acquisition method for these Mods, players will not be able to dissolve Flawed Mods for Endo or Transmute them. Adjusting for Increased Mod Drain As Flawed Mods are being removed, we want to ensure that new players can still create their early builds and equip Mods onto their equipment. Since normal Mods have a higher drain than their Flawed variants, we’re approaching this problem in two ways: Firstly, we’ve added 90k Bonus Affinity to the completion of the Vor’s Prize Quest, split up across the 6 missions. Each mission earns new players an additional 15k Affinity upon first completion only. NOTE: With the extra Affinity earned throughout Vor’s Prize, we have removed the ability for players to attempt Mastery Rank tests until they have completed this Quest. Secondly, we’ve reduced the base Drain for a few core Mods by 2. This will allow these Mods to fit into early game builds more easily, but also has the benefit of reducing their overall Drain at all ranks. Here are the Mods that have been reduced from a Drain of 4 to 2 at Rank 0: Fast Deflection - new Max Rank Drain of 7 Redirection - new Max Rank Drain of 12 Enemy Sense - new Max Rank Drain of 7 Continuity - new Max Rank Drain of 7 MK1 Weapons Along the lines of Flawed Mods, the less powerful MK1 variants of the Braton, Paris, Kunai, and Bo have been removed from the Vor’s Prize Quest. Now, new players will be presented with the normal variants of these weapons. Rest assured that all MK1 weapons still remain available for purchase with Credits in the Market! Early Game Inbox and Junction Adjustments Updated Early Game Inbox Messages Continuing with our plans for improving the new player path, we have updated the completion Inbox messages for the following Quests: Vor’s Prize Added new Ordis voice lines when interacting with the Mod Segment during the Quest to set expectations around Modding this early on in the game: “Ordis realizes modding may seem a tad overwhelming, but everything will soon make sense.” Saya’s Vigil Added Gara’s Blueprint to this inbox message instead of it being a Quest Completion screen reward! Following the completion of Saya’s Vigil, we have also written a new inbox from The Business directing players to visit Fortuna. Known Issue: We have identified an issue causing this inbox message to not be delivered with this Update’s launch. We have fixed the issue and it will be coming in an upcoming hotfix. Our goal is to better guide newly awakened Tenno through the Star Chart. At the end of Vor’s Prize, they will be directed to Cetus to learn about Codex Scanners and receive their first Warframe Blueprint with a light introduction to Resource and Blueprint acquisition. Then they will be encouraged to follow the Junction path to the next planet. We have plans to continue improvements along the Junction path in future updates with the new player experience in mind. Junctions Speaking of Junctions, we’ve made the following adjustments to the Venus and Mercury Junctions: Venus Removal of the “Collect 20 Mods” and “Apply 4 mods to a Single Warframe or Weapon” tasks. With the removal of Flawed Mods, the “Apply 4 Mods” challenge may become more difficult. Our goal for Junction tasks is to both teach new Tenno about the game, and guide them where to go next -- neither of these challenges quite fit that vision. NEW TASK: “Complete Quest: Saya’s Vigil” Similar to the Inbox changes, our goal is to direct new players to Cetus early in their journey! It’s an opportunity to meet those the Tenno protect while learning about Codex Scanners and Warframe Blueprints. Reduced the Rank requirement from 2 to 1 for the “Upgrade any mod through the fusion process” task. Simplified the description as well to better explain how to complete it: Was: Use ENDO to upgrade Mods at the MOD STATION in your Orbiter. Now: FUSION requires ENDO and CREDITS and is available at the MODS bench in the middle-deck of your Orbiter. Mercury Added Incubator Power Core to Junction rewards Howl of the Kubrow is a Quest unlocked from the Mercury Junction, which requires an Incubator Power Core to complete. The free path to this item was not available until the Mars Junction was completed, which we felt was confusing to many new Tenno eager to hatch their first furry friend. Universal Enemy Radar Players now have a Universal Enemy Radar set to 30m to help new players navigate through their missions. Warframe is more fun when you know where your foes are, and we felt that this important mechanic no longer needed to be tied to game progression. Existing Enemy Radar Mods will simply add to the base Enemy Radar values! ie. your Enemy Radar with Enemy Sense equipped would now be 60m! Quest Improvements Waverider Quest For those who didn’t grow up playing Tony Hawk Pro Skater, the Waverider Quest may be a stopping point for you to acquire Yareli. Simply put: the gameplay requirements are not what you see in your average Warframe mission, being K-drive focused. While we love adding variety to our game, accessibility, and enjoyment is also an important factor -- especially since this is the free path to earning Yareli. With that in mind, we have made the following changes to the Waverider Quest: We’ve reduced the number of challenges per page from 5 to 3, resulting in a whopping reduction of overall Quest requirements from 25 to 15 challenges! With fewer challenges overall, we’ve reworked the remaining challenges with the focus of making them simpler and easier to complete while still showcasing the breadth of gameplay available on your K-Drive! Added the Quest Challenges to the pause menu while it is active to increase visibility and reduce the inconvenience of reopening the comic every time you need to check your progress. Hovering over a challenge will also provide you with a “how-to” description, offering more details on how to complete the listed objective! Added Quest icon to the prompting text lines when interacting with Boon in Fortuna, to help players identify which dialogue prompt to click to proceed with the Quest stages. The Yareli Comic is now accessible in the Vent Kids’ Clubhouse in Fortuna while the Waverider Quest is active. Instead of having to return to your Orbiter to check challenge progress, players have an additional option of visiting Boon and reading the comic there! Added a “Skip All” button to the Yareli Comic Pages for players who want to skip past the narration and read the pages themselves. Here's a look at what the Waverider Quest Challenges are now: PAGE 1: Copter x 5 Complete a K-Drive Race Kill 5 enemies with a Secondary Weapon while riding a K-Drive PAGE 2 Nose Planker or Tail Planker x 5 Obtain 5 seconds of air-time on a K-Drive Get 5 Headshot Kills with a Secondary Weapon while riding a K-Drive PAGE 3: Keep a K-Drive trick chain alive for 10 seconds Frontside Rollout x 5 Backside Rollout x 5 PAGE 4: Perform 2 x10 combos Complete 2 different K-Drive races This challenge is a rework of the “Earn X points in a K-Drive race” challenges, which were impossible to do for certain K-Drive races. 5 slam kills with the K-Drive This works if you simply land on enemies or kill them with Slam Shockwaves! We've also buffed Slam Shockwave radial damage from 5 to 100! Direct impacts still deal 1000 damage, but now missed maneuvers will do as much damage as a bullet jump. PAGE 5: Kill 5 enemies while mid-air/during a trick chain Collect a total of 10,000 race points Earn 500 points in a K-Drive trick chain Vox Solaris Quest As we want to encourage new Tenno to venture to both Cetus and Fortuna, we’ve reduced the overall difficulty of Vox Solaris with them in mind: MISSION 1: Reduced enemy level from 6-8 to 5, matching subsequent missions in this Quest. Increased Drone Health and Shields from 3k to 8k, respectively. Reduced the number of required kills from 30 to 20. MISSION 2: Reduced enemy level from 6-8 to 5, matching subsequent missions in this Quest. MISSION 3: Increased Excavator shields from 500 to 3k to match Health values. MISSION 5: Reduced enemy starting level to 7 from 9. Increased Coolant Tower Health and Shields from 3k to 10k, respectively. The Glast Gambit Quest There’s not much we can do to stop Nef Anyo’s scheming, but we did manage to negotiate the following changes to The Glast Gambit: Reduced the length of each Index round from 3 to 2 minutes. Since you have to play multiple Index rounds per mission, we felt it dragged on too long. Increased the Victory Margin from 10 to 20. While Nef may be balking at your success, we understand that the original margin was a pain point for many players, and we hope this improves that! Natah Quest This Quest is such an important stepping stone on your Tenno’s journey, so we are not planning on making sweeping changes. However, we have a few QOL tweaks to address Quest initiation: Reduced the MR requirement from 3 to 2, meaning Oculysts will now spawn in Uranus missions once you are MR 2! Updated the Uranus Junction challenge description to better indicate how to start this Quest. “Unlock this Quest via a special event in Grineer missions on Uranus. These events only trigger if you are Mastery Rank 2 or above.” Reduced the number of Defense waves from 10 to 5 in the “Seal the Tomb” mission. Misc. Quest Changes: The Archwing: Reduced Odonata build time from 10 minutes to 1 minute. The Limbo Theorem: Reduced Limbo Blueprint craft times from 12 hours to 1 minute. We are also reducing the number of Proof fragments required for the Theorem Blueprints from 3 to 1. Saya’s Vigil: Removed the MR 1 requirement to access Saya’s Vigil as part of our other early game journey changes. Rising Tide: Reduced the Railjack Cephalon Blueprint build time from 10 mins to 1 min. Apostasy Prologue: Added “how to unlock” hint text in Codex to guide players to complete the Chains of Harrow Quest and install the Personal Quarters Segment. Assassination Target Improvements With the grind reduction pass we did on Quests, we also took a moment to look at certain Assassination Targets as well. Our goals were to reduce the overall time to complete some of these fights and improve waypointing where possible. Ambulas: Reduced round timer from 120 to 90 seconds. Reduced required number of Hacked Ambulas From 4 to 3 for single player squads From 5 to 4 for two player squads From 6 to 4 for three and four player squads. For experienced squads, taking down the Ambulas could lead to long periods of waiting. With these changes, we hope to reduce the amount of overall downtime in this fight, while not making it too difficult for those who have yet to master it. Vay Hek: Reduced Invulnerability period from 10 to 6 seconds. Increased maximum damage received before becoming invulnerable from 25% to 35%. These changes should increase the frequency at which Vay Hek becomes vulnerable to damage, therefore speeding up the fight! Tyl Regor: Waypoint on Tyl Regor now disappears when he is hiding. Previously it would direct players to a locked door, possibly leading to confusion. Added Waypoint Markers to Manics while they are active. Cetus Wisp and Necramech Acquisition Changes Another part of a Tenno’s path is improving their gear, especially once they’ve unlocked their Operator. In addition to the Focus Point acquisition changes covered above in the System Changes section, we’ve made the following tweaks to improve player acquisition for Amps and Necramechs: Cetus Wisps no longer disappear! These are crucial crafting costs for many early-game Amps, and while we did add the ability to purchase this resource from Onkko at Rank 5 Quills, this change should improve player acquisition earlier on in their journey. As similar pickups like Scintillant and Toroids were added to the game, this timed mechanic for Cetus Wisps felt unnecessarily complicated in contrast. The Cetus Wisp description was changed in Update 33.6.8 and now the functionally is live to match its new state: “Most common at night, these stone lifeforms are drawn to shorelines touched by the Eidolon. They linger around lakes on the Plains of Eidolon at all hours. Their origin remains mysterious.” Voidrig crafting costs have been updated to require Cambion Drift resources only. Some of the resources required investment in other Hub Syndicates and Railjack, adding further obstacles for players on their journey to their Necramech. The updated crafting changes are as follows: Voidrig Casing - replaced Venerdo Alloy with 5 Cranial Foremount Voidrig Engine - replaced Isos with 6 Cabochon Embolos Voidrig Capsule - replaced Marquise Veridos with 50 Devolved Namalon Voidrig Weapon Pod - replaced Charc Electroplax with 6 Trapezium Xenorhast Added Damaged Necramech Components to Loid’s Store for purchase. Players can purchase Damaged Necramech Casings, Engines, Pods, and Weapon Pods from the Necraloid Syndicate at Rank 1 for 2,500 Standing each. With the number of components needed to build your Necramech, the drop tables may not always be in your favor. Similar to Voruna and Citrine, we are adding the ability to purchase missing components directly from a vendor as a way to offset the grind. Please share any bug reports and feedback related to any and all of the above New Player Path Changes in the official Abyss of Dagath subforums. ACCESSIBILITY & HUD IMPROVEMENTS This section covers the following topics (in order): Character Highlighting System Conservation Accessibility and QOL Improvements Auto Melee Buffs and Debuffs in Pause Menu New Update History Screen Other UI / HUD Additions and Changes Character Highlighting System The enemies you face in Warframe tend to be well-themed to their tilesets -- while this adds visual cohesion to the game, it also means that your foes can sometimes blend into the landscape. To improve enemy and ally visibility, we’ve added a new “Character Highlighting” section to our Accessibility menu. With this new system, players can now apply a Highlight on both enemies and allies, with a variety of customization options. Whether you want to improve avatar visibility or simply turn them a fun color (or both!), you will be able to select the hue and intensity to your liking through the various settings: In the screenshot above, you can see the full array of settings available to you in our Accessibility Settings Screen: Enemy Highlights Toggle - Toggling this on applies the Highlight Aura to all enemies. Enemy Highlight Color - Select the color of choice using the Accessibility Color Palette or any other owned Color palette. Enemy Highlight Intensity - Choose how bright you’d like the Highlight to be using this sliding scale. Ally Highlights - Toggling this on applies the Highlight Aura to all allies, including but not limited to: Squad Members, Companions / Sentinels, and Specters. Self Highlight - Apply the Ally Highlight settings to your player avatar. This will persist anywhere you take your Warframe or Tenno, such as your Orbiter, Quests, etc! Ally Highlight Color - Select the color of choice using the Accessibility Color Palette or any other owned Color palette. Ally Highlight Intensity - Choose how bright you’d like the Highlight to be using this sliding scale. Interacting with the Color and Intensity options will preview the effect on your Warframe in the menu screen, giving you an idea of what it’ll look like in-mission! Here is a preview of gameplay with this system in action: U35_Character Highlighting In Action_Option B.mp4 A few key characteristics of note for this system: “Friendly” enemy units such as those seen in Invasion missions or those affected by Revenant’s Thralls / Nyx’s Mind Control units / etc. will use the Ally Highlight settings to differentiate them from your true foes. Character Highlight Settings are accessible in-mission should you need to make any tweaks on the fly! Our intentions are for the majority of Quest cutscenes you will not see Character Highlights in action, except if Self Highlights are applied. Currently this is not the case and all allies and enemies are highlighted. We have a code fix that will come with our next Cert build. Conservation Accessibility and QOL Improvements Conservation has had a long storied history with quality of life and accessibility changes, but we can confidently say that this is the biggest batch of improvements yet! Because there’s so much to cover, we’ve broken it down per Conservation stage: Icons on the map: The animal's name now appears when hovering over the trail icons in the advanced map! Holding your Tranq Rifle will now show the icons of the closest Trail Start Points in your minimap! Only one icon will appear per animal, to help you better plan your route on foot. Each animal trail icon now uses the animal's silhouette (instead of the generic pawprint) and is color-coded for quicker visual identification! The hue matches that of their Echo-Lure. This slipped out a little earlier than planned with Echoes of Duviri (Update 33.6)! Players can now select an Icon on the advanced map to spawn a special waypoint marker to the Trail Start Point. This marker will persist even after putting your Tranq rifle away! U34_Trail Start GIF.mp4 Trail Start Points: It all starts with scat! Unfortunately, many trail start points can blend into the landscape and otherwise be difficult to find. We’ve made the following changes with this in mind: Trail Start Points will now be highlighted with a diamond marker with the Tranq Rifle equipped. Simply holding the Tranq Rifle will show these markers at 20m away, while aiming down the scope will reveal them from up to 50m away. This diamond marker functionality already existed with Echo-Lures, but we are extending it to Tranq Rifles as well. Trail Start Points will now glow similar to footprints when viewed through the Tranq Rifle scope. Follow Tracks: Updated our footprint shader to improve animal footprint visibility and address issues of them disappearing below rocky terrain. Once interacting with a Trail Start Point, a yellow area highlight will appear in your minimap over the last section of the tracks you found. Additionally, we have added diamond markers at key checkpoints in the footprint path that appear when looking down the Tranq Rifle scope. If you happen to lose the trail or get turned around, these two mechanics should help you! Locate and Tranquilize: Adjusted the audio and visual cues from the Tranq Rifle to play more or less frequently depending on how far away the animal is. The more often they appear, the closer you are! Ally Character Highlights will apply to Conservation targets as an extra way to distinguish them from the landscape, should you wish to use that system! Added a flashing paw icon that points you in the direction of the animal when looking down the Tranquilizer scope. With the successful use of the Echo-Lure, the replying animal call already comes from the direction that they spawn in. We’re adding this new visual clue for Conservationists in addition to the existing audio cue! Note: This functionality also applies to free-roaming wildlife you find on the Landscape, no Echo-Lure required! U34_Tranq Rifle Indicator GIF.mp4 Auto Melee Adding an Auto Melee button has been a frequently requested topic over the years as a way to mitigate repeated button presses. Your days of spamming E are over with the new Auto-Melee functionality! Here’s how it works: With Auto Melee, players can trigger melee swings through the familiar repeated melee inputs, or they can simply hold the melee input button to repeatedly swing their melee weapon for as long as that input is held. Combos can be executed while auto-meleeing by simply adding the required inputs -- i.e. to start Slide Attacking, simply start sliding while holding the Melee Input, etc. In short, the Warframe melee that you know isn’t changing - the only difference is that instead of needing to press your E hundreds of times, you only need to press (and hold!) it once. Our goal is not to alter the main way you play Warframe melee if you prefer the precision of individual inputs - auto-meleeing is an additional way to play the game. This mechanic has been released as a permanent functionality of the Melee system, as we’ve designed this so that both individual input and auto-melee can co-exist without issue. Since Auto-Melee is removing a lot of the active element of meleeing, we are working on an addition to this system called “Perfect Heavy Attacks” that aim to release with Whispers in the Walls. Exclusions to Auto Melee Due to the mechanics of Auto Melee mirroring that of thrown melee weapons, the following weapons will not have Auto Meleeing enabled for them: All Glaive Weapon Types Wolf Sledge Buffs and Debuffs in Pause Menu The meme of players giving their squadmates enough buff indicators to look like an MMORPG screen is real and valid. Worry not! We have not changed the buffs you get, we’re simply adding the ability to see what the actual Buff and Debuff Icons mean when entering your Pause Menu: As you can see in the screenshot above, hovering over the icon will show you the effect’s name and possibly the description. We've done our best to add descriptions for Arcanes, Mods, Decrees, Focus Abilities, and Weapon Abilities in time for this update. As the majority of descriptions are still being added, we ask that any bug reporting is done on incorrect or incomplete descriptions instead of missing ones! New Update History Screen Whether you’re jumping straight into a new Update or returning to the game after a break, our New Update History Screen is designed to contextualize and highlight the latest content. This screen offers a variety of new tools for us to showcase everything that is available in our major update releases. In the screenshot above, you’ll see various sections designed to contextualize and highlight released in the specific update, including: General overview blurb for the update! Familiar as this is what we’ve done for past updates. Patch highlights, which can be interacted with to reveal a pop-up window with lengthier descriptions of new features, game modes, etc., released in the update! Direct link to the update notes on our website. New item showcase to highlight new content available in the market. “How to Play” button that will either direct you to a tutorial or take you straight to the Star Chart to engage with the new content. Update History at the bottom of this screen, allowing you to look at Update Screens for previous releases. Abyss of Dagath and the Seven Crimes of Kullervo are currently available! Where to find this screen This new Update History Screen will present to players the first time they log into the game following an update, but it can also be accessed any time at two locations: In the pause menu above the Nightwave button. Via the new banner over the News console in your Orbiter! Other UI / HUD Additions and Changes Added a Weapon Trait Display in the Arsenal! Weapons with specific traits or passives now display this information in the Upgrade Arsenal screen of the respective weapon. These traits were often hidden in weapon descriptions or otherwise required players to learn about them via outside sources - now you can directly see any special traits a weapon has and incorporate that knowledge into your builds. Each and every single trait was written for this update, which means some may have slipped by! Please let us know if there are weapons missing their own trait description. Thank you! This new Trait display is placed where the previous “Rank Bonuses” information lived. We have moved the “Rank Bonuses” section of the Upgrade Screen just above the Ability Icons, where players can still access that information on-hover. Added a preview feature when adjusting the Visual Effects Intensity slider. You can now swap Incarnon Evolutions in the Arsenal! Note: You will still need to visit Cavalero to unlock each Evolution, but once that’s done, you can swap to your heart’s delight from the comfort of your Orbiter. U34_Incarnon Arsenal Evolution Swap_V2.mp4 Updated the reticle’s reaction when hitting headshots and weak points to a much more visible and red indicator. Added a new "Damage Number" color slot for non-critical damage. Default is white but can be customized in the “Customize HUD Colors” settings. Players can now see how many open Slots they own when hovering over an item that requires Slots in the Foundry! The number and slot type will appear at the bottom of the Foundry screen when hovering over an applicable Blueprint. Knowing how many open Slots you have is an important part of expanding your Arsenal, but this information can be hard to find if you don’t know where to look! This change allows players to get that information much more quickly, and offers more transparency on how the Slot mechanic works for those unfamiliar with it! Railjack Crew members can now be customized by hovering over their character models. Doing so will display all of the options in a single menu, a much more convenient way to personalize your team! Added a new pop-up when picking up Convergence Orbs to explain Convergence functionality. The message “Eliminate enemies to earn bonus Focus for the next 45s” will now appear briefly below the bonus Focus pop-up. For more information on the bonus Focus pop-up, read on to the Focus Lens Conversion Buff section. A follow-up message will now also appear once you have reached the daily cap. Added a “Claim Rewards” indicator on the Nightwave Button accessed via the pause menu when you have a Nightwave reward pending. Removed the ability to see how many Trades Remaining the other player has in the Trading Interface. This change was the result of fixing a bug where the Trade Remaining number was not accurate. Ultimately it was decided that this information is not really relevant for other players to know, so it was removed. Added drop shadow to Buff Icons in the HUD to improve their visibility, especially when in light colored environments. Added new VFX feedback when Health and Shields are restored. The HUD color (default gray) is also customizable with the new “Restored Shields and Health” option in the Customize HUD Colors Accessibility settings. COMPANION REWORK (PHASE 1) This section covers the following topics (in order): Companion Immortality Companion Stat Changes Companion Healing Companion Mod Changes & Additions And more! Your furry, robotic, fleshy, and everything in between pals have received a rework! Read on to learn how the way you use, Mod, and interact with your Companions has changed in this first phase of the Companion system overhaul. Our high-level objectives for this Companion rework are: 1. Make Companions more viable in high-level gameplay by making them immortal. Companions can no longer die! This avoids frustrating scenarios where you are relying on your Companion to provide some feature or bonus only to have them get removed from play. The base stats of Companions have also been increased significantly to help them in difficult missions. 2. Introduce more interactive Mods that offer ways to play alongside your Companion instead of it being mostly autonomous like a specter. 3. Changes to many Companion Mods, mostly to support the first two goals of removing death states and improving basic survivability. Some Mods were inconsistent in their naming or stats, and we have improved this. We have rebalanced some Mods that players felt were not good enough, or ones that we've observed are SO good that they are considered "essential." COMPANION IMMORTALITY We've all seen the memes with people giving their Companions funny names, only to see the message over and over every few minutes: "Your Companion is down!" Dying Kavats and Kubrows have been demanding attention on your HUD, and spontaneously combusting Sentinels have been robbing you of your Vacuum and Animal Instinct for years. All that changes with this update. Going forward, Companions will still have Health and Shield values, and they can be knocked out, but they will not die if you fail to revive them. When they reach zero Health, Companions will instead become Incapacitated for a base duration of 60 seconds. All Companions will automatically revive at the end of their Incapacitate period, and there is no limit to the number of times this can happen. Upon reviving all Companions have 5 seconds of invulnerability to get back on their feet safely! Here are the specifics to how each Companion behaves while Incapacitation: Kavats, Kubrows, MOAs, and Predasites will now collapse on the ground and can be, optionally, manually revived to get them back into action quicker. Sentinels cannot be manually revived, but they will fly along with you in a damaged state while performing their automatic self-revive. Vulpaphylas still have their usual tricks instead, where they morph into a Sentinel-like state for a short period and then recover. Khora's Venari still uses its usual behavior of temporarily disappearing if defeated, but you can override its time-out by spending Energy to cast her Venari Ability. Worth noting that Vacuum and Animal Instinct work while the Companion is Incapacitated. With Incapacitation, Companions can now recover from being downed in Arbitration missions, instead of staying dead for the duration of the mission. Several Mods have been modified or introduced that also change when or how your Companion deals with Incapacitation - see the “Companion Mod Changes & Additions” section below for specifics. 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: CONSISTENCY IN COMPANION HEALING Previously, the Mod “Link Health” could cause your Companions to gain some of the healing that your Warframe did. This invisible feature was not indicated by the card, and it was never explained what forms of healing worked or why. Additionally, Companions were using some of the same mechanics that things like mission objectives did, which limited the effects of some healing or defensive powers. We've decided to remove both of these obscure mechanics and restrictions. Companions will no longer gain Health when your Warframe does if using certain Health-absorbing powers together with the Mod “Link Vitality” (formerly Link Health). The restrictions of the following abilities and features, as they apply to granting Health, Shields, or Damage Resistance to Companions have been removed: Nezha’s Warding Halo Trinity’s Blessing Ember’s Immolation Garuda’s Blood Altar Gara’s Splinter Storm Styanax’ Intrepid Stand Mirage’s Eclipse Volt’s Discharge Baruuk’s Desolate Hands Harrow’s Penance Harrow’s Thurible Equinox’ Mend & Maim Sancti Magistar’s Heavy Attack Heal Vazarin’s Protective Sling COMPANION MOD CHANGES & ADDITIONS Changes To Existing Mods Several Mods have been modified to interact with how your Companion deals with Incapacitation. Stats below are shown at Max Rank. New Companion Mods Referring back to the introduction, one of our goals with the Companion rework is to add opportunities for the player to work together with the Companion. Instead of a Mod that only affects your Companion, we looked for ways that you and your Companion could amplify each other. The following new Mods aim to do just that! These Mods are available to acquire at the Conservation vendors in Cetus (Master Teasonai), Fortuna (The Business), and the Necralisk (Son). *Stats below are shown at Max Rank. Available In Master Teasonai’s Offerings (Cetus): Tandem Bond Companion melee hits increase your combo by 6. Heavy Attacks increase Companion melee damage by 30% of melee damage multiplied by your combo multiplier for 30s. Covert Bond Finisher and Mercy Kills grant your Companion 10s of stealth that attacks will not disrupt, up to 60s. Mystic Bond After your Companion uses Abilities with cooldowns 5 times, you may cast a Warframe Ability without expending Energy. Restorative Bond Health Orbs restore 60 more Health and reduce Companion Recovery by 3s. Available In The Business’ Offerings (Fortuna): Aerial Bond Airborne kills decrease Companion Recovery timer by 3s and 9s for headshot kills. Companion creates a field of Cold that increases up to 35% Status chance and 10m radius while Warframe is airborne, lasting for 3s after returning to the ground. Astral Bond Damage dealt by Operator or Drifter grants 120% Void damage to your Companion’s attacks for 10s. Companion Void damage adds +30% Amp and Energy Efficiency to Operator or Drifter for 5s. Momentous Bond Killing Eximus enemies grants 120% bonus of a random Elemental Damage to your Companion for 30s and reduces Companion Recovery by 12s. Reinforced Bond If the Companion exceeds 1200 maximum shields or Overshields, then your fire rate is increased by 60%. Reloading restores 150 Overshields to your Companion. Tenacious Bond Headshot kills reduce Companion Recovery timer by 3s. If the Companion’s Critical Chance is over 50% then you gain +0.6x Final Critical Damage Multiplier. Available In Son’s Offerings (Necralisk): Duplex Bond Companion will clone itself each time you expend 100 Energy, up to 3 Clones. Clones live for 30s and their kills have a 50% chance of dropping Energy Orbs. Seismic Bond While a channeled Ability is active, Companion melee attacks create a 4m shockwave for 30% of their melee damage. Damage dealt by your Companion increases your Ability Efficiency by 3% for 12 seconds. Max 10 stacks. Vicious Bond Companion melee attacks strip 15% of enemy armor. Melee attacks on enemies recently damaged by Abilities apply the effect in a 9m radius. Contagious Bond When your Companion kills an enemy afflicted with a Status Effect, 50% of the Status Effect spreads to other enemies within 9m. Manifold Bond (Robotic)* Companion Precept Mods apply Status Effects from Companion weapons. Killing enemies with 3 or more unique Status Effects reduces Companion Ability cooldowns by 3s. *Work is still ongoing for this mod, we are aware of some Robotic Companion Precepts which do not trigger the bonus Status Effects. FURTHER COMPANION QUALITY-OF-LIFE CHANGES A few further changes that are worth mentioning: Sentinels now avoid damage from Arson Eximus explosions if you also avoid damage with a successful dodge. The improvement to Shield Gating where it now scales with maximum Shield strength and fully resets as long as you have any Shield charge at all, also applies to Companions. Companions can now gain Overguard (behaves the same as player Overguard) and Overshield. Health and Energy conversion will now enable picking up Orbs at max capacity. This applies to the Equilibrium Mod as well. Added map icons for each Companion type to help identify their location. Reduced the amount of Alloy Plates required to craft the Kavat Incubator Upgrade Segment from 120,000 to 60,000. Improved Companion HUD information: Removed notifications for when other players’ Companions are downed (Incapacitated) to reduce HUD noise. You will now only get notified for your own Companion. Your Companion now has its very own icon in the HUD. Updated the Imprints error message to be more accurate: Was: "Cannot make imprints of pets when they have not yet matured. Wait for active pet to become an adult before creating imprint." Now: "Cannot make imprints of pets when they have not yet matured. Mature to an adult before creating imprint." Oberon's Passive now applies to all Companion Types. Previously only Kavats, Kubrows, Predasites, and Vulpaphylas would receive +25% Health, Armor, and Shield links, plus the 1 instant revive per mission. Companions are no longer able to be staggered! Because staggering would often stop your pets in-place, it opened them up to being re-staggered, which then often led to their swift demise. This should fix that issue, and allow your furry and not-so-furry friends to have more impact in-mission. Please share any bug reports and feedback related to any and all of the above Companion Changes in the official Abyss of Dagath subforums. HYDROID REWORK For those of you with an interest in the sea, who wish to use the murky depths to drown your foes, the wait is over! Hydroid has received a rework! As with many of our Warframe Reworks, a Forma Inbox will be sent to all players at 11:30am ET on October 18th after Abyss of Dagath launches. The goal of the Hydroid rework was to keep his unique style while making him both easier to use and bringing his power more in line with other Warframes. This means changing how his abilities work through changes to their damage types, removing charging mechanics, and making enemies easier to hit while they are wrapped up in his abilities. Additionally, it meant reworking his passive and removing the Undertow ability, replacing it with the new Plunder ability. For a closer look at our deadly marauder of the deep, let's dive right in! Changing Impact and Magnetic Damage to Corrosive Damage and Status Previously, Tempest Barrage and Tidal Surge both dealt Impact damage, while Tentacle Swarm dealt Magnetic Damage. These have been changed to Corrosive Damage, which can apply Corrosive Status. Corroding Barrage has been a widely used Augment Mod by Hydroid players, which caused Corrosive Status for Tempest Barrage, and due to its popularity, we looked to incorporate its effect into Hydroid at a base level. We felt changing Damage to Corrosive Damage in Hydroid’s abilities makes them more thematic to the sea while also incorporating Corroding Barrage’s current effect in a meaningful way. With this change in mind, Corroding Barrage will now apply Viral Status instead of Corrosive - more details on that below. Passive Changes Hydroid’s previous Passive had a chance to spawn a tentacle when performing a melee slam attack. We have removed that passive entirely and replaced it with an entirely new effect. The nature of Hydroid’s previous Passive pushed players to a very specific playstyle (regular usage of melee slam attacks), while not guaranteeing anything useful from each individual slam. We wanted to make the passive feel more reliable and impactful. New Passive: Enemies damaged by Hydroid are more vulnerable to Corrosion Status, with initial status reducing armor by 50%. Hydroid’s new Passive affects an enemy once Hydroid damages them, lasting until their death. It makes the first instance of Corrosive Status on an enemy remove 50% of their Armor rather than 26%. Not only does this make the first Corrosive Status stronger, but it also means Corrosion Status can reach 100% Armor Reduction with full stacks! To clarify, this means Hydroid does not need to apply all, or even any, of the Corrosive Status Effects on an enemy. As long as Hydroid has damaged the enemy, the Corrosive Status Effects can be applied from any source and will receive the benefit. You can see the Passive in action in the Ability clips below. Removing Charge Mechanics In an effort to make Hydroid more approachable, we have removed the charge mechanic on Tempest Barrage and Tentacle Swarm. The full charge values will now apply baseline to each cast of the abilities. For example, previously, an uncharged Tentacle Swarm would have 40% of the tentacles and 33% of the radius compared to a fully charged cast. With this change, both tentacle count and radius will always be the maximum, what a fully charged cast was previously. This change makes Hydroid’s play more fluid, with more time spent attacking rather than charging abilities for their maximum effect. Ability Changes Tempest Barrage: Damage dealt causes enemies to stagger, rather than ragdoll. This should make enemies easier to kill, as they will stay in the range of Hydroid’s other abilities and be more open to Headshots. The Corroding Barrage Augment Mod has been renamed Viral Tempest and now has a chance to apply a Viral Status Effect, rather than Corrosive Status Effect. It also no longer grants Ability Strength. Changing the Impact Damage of Tempest Barrage to Corrosive Damage meant the Corrosive Status Effect from the Augment was already included. We changed this to Viral to maintain its relevance with the other changes. In light of the punch Corrosive and Viral packs in comparison to Corrosive and Impact, the Ability Strength buff was removed for balance purposes. Added new sound effects to go with the ability. Tempest Barrage staggers enemies instead of ragdoll, making them easier to target. Tidal Surge: Allows some steering of the wave for more control over where Hydroid and his enemies end up when the ability is finished. Exiting Tidal Surge early by jumping now also works while airborne. Tidal Surge’s base speed has been increased and will no longer scale off Ability Range. This change was made to ensure controlling the wave behaves consistently, including where enemies are deposited when the ability ends. Tidal Surge no longer violently flings carried enemies at the end of the surge, and will instead deposit them where the surge ends. This should make Tidal Surge a better ability for grouping enemies and quick killing, as opposed to flinging them across the room. Tidal Surge now applies Corrosive Status Effects to enemies based on how long they are carried by its waves. Tidal Surge now cleanses all of Hydroid’s negative Status Effects. This brings one of the benefits from the Tidal Impunity Augment Mod into the ability directly, granting Hydroid some survivability in his abilities with Undertow’s removal. Added new sound effects to go with the ability. Tidal Surge now carries enemies with the wave, depositing them where the wave ends instead of throwing them forward. Undertow (Replaced with Plunder): This ability has been removed and replaced with Plunder. Undertow was an ability which we feel made Hydroid a bit less fun to play as, or play with. There are two main reasons we decided to replace this ability: It forced the player to remain stationary, while many objectives rely on regular movement. It absorbed enemies without instantly killing them, which could lead to instances of hiding enemies that a teammate was trying to kill. Plunder: A new ability added to Hydroid’s third ability slot. All enemies in range will have Corrosive Status Effects remove their armor permanently, increasing Hydroid’s armor and granting bonus Corrosive damage to weapons. This ability is stronger based on the number of Corrosive Status Effects applied to the enemies affected by Plunder. This means with a full stack of Corrosive Status Effects, their Armor will be removed permanently. The Curative Undertow Augment Mod has been renamed Rousing Plunder and it causes Plunder to heal Hydroid and his allies within Affinity Range. Plunder removes Armor based on Corrosive Status Effects on an enemy. It also provides an Armor and Damage Buff, tracked in the lower-right corner of the HUD. Tentacle Swarm: Now holds enemies in a steadier position, making it easier to eliminate enemies locked down by Tentacles. If a tentacle’s held enemy dies, it will move to grab a new enemy in the Tentacle Swarm’s area of effect. Updated Tentacle sound and visual effects. Tentacle Swarm now holds enemies still for easy targeting, rather than violently shaking them about. Please share any bug reports and feedback related to any and all of the above Hydroid Changes in the official Abyss of Dagath subforums. ZAUBA & COMMODORE PRIME SUIT CONVERSION As part of our ongoing efforts to convert Operator Skins for Drifter use, the Operator Zauba and Commodore Prime Suits can now be equipped onto your Drifter! *Raven Drifter is seen in the above image. Future purchases of these customizations will now include the matching Drifter variants. For those of you that already own these collections, the Drifter versions will be added to your inventory upon log-in. Explosive Barrel Changes Explosive Barrels on paper may seem like a blast, but their impact in-mission is not quite up to snuff. In this update, we’ve brought these environmental hazards back with a bang with the following changes: Explosive Barrels now deal a % of an enemy’s Health to help them scale with higher level content. Players will receive a reduced amount of damage from Barrels to prevent deadly accidents -- on par with the amount of damage they would have received before this change. Previously, these barrels dealt a flat damage value which had little impact on high-level foes. LN2 Barrels (Cold) and Spent Radium Barrels (Radiation) will now deal full stacks of Cold and Radiation Status Effects respectively for enemies standing within the shockwave. Removed the 0.35s delay before explosion upon Barrel destruction. Reduced the range of explosion from 15m to 10m and added scaling damage values based on how close the enemy is to the Barrel. Improved overall VFX of the Barrel explosion to showcase the blast radius, and make the kills feel punchier. Fixed explosion line of sight checks being blocked by other enemies. Explosions will still respect environmental obstacles (walls, etc.), but now enemies within the blast radius will not survive simply because they were standing behind someone else! Additions: Added two new Reward Options to the Steel Path Circuit Reward Path: Rivens and Kuva! With Drifter Opportunity Intrinsics at Rank 9, you will be presented with reward options of a Veiled Riven or 20k Kuva in addition to the weekly Incarnon rotation for your Circuit Reward Path! Just like the Incarnon Geneses, the order you pick these rewards will determine what Rank you need to complete in the Circuit to earn them. Added VFX when toggling between the Normal and Steel Path modes in the Star Chart screen. Added several new post-Quest voice lines to Saya in Cetus! Added a sound effect to mid-air rolls. Your aerial rolling will be silent no more! Added new Ordis’ lines from the Cephalon Joke-a-Thon Contest winners. Added the Argo & Vel Blueprint to Simaris’ wares for those who own the Drifter variant! Changes: Added a popup to indicate how you are friends with someone upon hovering over their alias in the Friends/Clan screen. If you are friends with someone through Warframe’s Cross Platform Play, it will appear as “Warframe Friend”. If you are friends with someone via your platforms’ friend feature, it will appear as “[Insert Platform] Friend”. Ground Finishers now ignore the Armor value of enemies as other types of Finishers do. This affects the following: Hunter’s Bonesaw now grants 120% Finisher Damage instead of Status Chance since Ground Finishers now deal Finisher Damage which does not proc Status. Fixed several cases where the game was not recognizing a Ground Finisher for the activation of Mods and Arcanes. The intent is that Ground Finishers, Stealth Finishers and Parazon Finishers should be equivalent unless explicitly stated otherwise: Duviri Decrees will now accept Ground Finishers (Tamm's Fortune, Brimon's Nerve, Molten Mettle) Inaros' Desiccation Curse augment will now create sand minions on Ground Finishers Arcane Trickery will now activate from Ground Finishers Arcane Ultimatum will now activate from Ground Finishers Exodia Might will now activate from Ground Finishers Improved the accuracy of water ripples when running through a body of water. Voruna’s Ulfrun's Descent kills will now count as Melee for synergy with Lycath's Hunt Health orb drops. We’ve revamped how the game audio mix is handled when casting Warframe abilities and firing weapons to improve spatial sound awareness. Now, you’ll be able to hear the environment and gameplay sounds much more clearly in certain scenarios. We also fixed some issues with certain abilities and weapons causing gameplay sounds to playback too quietly. Gaining Health, Shields, and Overguard now provide more gradual feedback in the health bar instead of instantly changing. Improved the Decree rerolling randomization to prevent the same Decrees from appearing again after rerolls. Improved the Incarnon UI VFX to better indicate when charges have been depleted. In preparation for the introduction of Cross Platform Play Clans, the way resources are refunded from canceling Dojo Rooms and Decorations has been changed to ensure parity between Cross Platform and non-Cross Platform Play Clans. Instead of the resources returning to the contributing players’ inventories, it will now be refunded to the Clan Vault. Buffs or mechanics that are triggered upon Health or Energy Orb pickup can now be triggered if your Health or Energy pools are at max. This includes Mods like Equilibrium! If your buffs are fully stacked, you will no longer pick up these Orbs at max Health/Energy. Orokin Vaults on Deimos can now be highlighted by the Orokin Eye Air Support ability. Adjusted Auto-Install prioritization based on new Warframe Health and Shield values, as well as checking for Shield Recharge Delay. Operator Amps can now interrupt Dax abilities in the Undercroft similar to how weapon fire can. Ash and Stalker (playable) can now cast Teleport on Defense objectives. This was previously fixed in Hotfix 33.0.7 due to the issues and inconsistencies with the landing spot (getting stuck in objective upon landing). We have now improved the targeting to prevent that and have re-enabled it! Updated the Imprints error message to be more accurate: Was: "Cannot make imprints of pets when they have not yet matured. Wait for active pet to become an adult before creating imprint." Now: "Cannot make imprints of pets when they have not yet matured. Mature to an adult before creating imprint." Grand Master Founder aliases are now highlighted in the Relays’ Honored Grand Masters panels. Updated Entropy Burst and Napalm Grenade’s descriptions to clarify that it applies after Mods like Rifle Aptitude by changing “Base Status Chance” to “Final Status Chance”. Was: +20 Base Status Chance, +1 ‘Entropy’ Now: +20 Final Status Chance, +1 ‘Entropy’ Updated some Archwing HUD assets with higher resolution ones. The Secondary Outburst Arcane has received some overall buffs! Additionally, we’ve fixed it not functioning properly and its description being inaccurate. The new description is as follows: On swapping to Secondary Weapon, consume all Combo Multipliers to increase Secondary Weapon Critical Chance and Critical Damage by 5/7/9/12/16/20% per Combo consumed for 30s. Changed the Thermal Sunder Helminth ability to have an altered attribute of “Scaling from Heat Status on enemies capped to 10x ability damage.” A deeper dive into its Subsumed version on other Warframes showed us there was a Damage Over Time issue where Heat procs were scaling with unlimited exponential damage, therefore, we have implemented the cap. Changed the Faction Damage Mod (includes Bane, Cleanse, Expel, Smite, Railjack, and Riven Faction Stats) descriptions to use multiplier instead of percentage based stat formatting. Damage values have not changed! Just the way they are communicated. For example: Smite Corpus (at max rank) Was: “+30% Damage to Corpus.” Now: “x1.3 Damage to Corpus.” This change better communicates how Faction Damage is calculated, since calculation occurs when you hit the enemy, as opposed to when you shoot like other damage sources (since it needs to know what Faction is being hit). For that reason, multipliers apply to final damage as a whole and not just part of the formula! Updated Zariman Extraction button in the Elevator to start a 60 second Extraction timer for Hosts in endless missions. Clients will still be automatically extracted from the mission when using this button. We have added this special functionality for Hosts to allow Clients the option to extract as well, should they wish to avoid a Host Migration. Reduced Shields on Corpus Allies in the “Prison Break” Break Narmer mission to be more in line with Grineer Brothers total health values. Non-Critical Little Duck transmissions in Disruption missions can now be turned on or off with the "Enable Hint Transmissions" toggle in the Audio Options. Optimizations: Optimized trail particles count on the Latron Incarnon Genesis’ projectile. Made systemic micro-optimizations to memory footprint for all platforms. Optimized screenshot capturing to reduce the hitch time. Fixed a hitch in performance when opening the Railjack Tactical Menu. Fixed a rare issue where Clients could experience long hitches in Archwing Rush missions if remaining players stayed at spawn. Made systemic micro-optimizations to memory on all platforms. Known Issues: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1368148-known-issues-abyss-of-dagath/ Top Fixes: Fixed Hema’s magazine size shrinking when it's used with Equinox equipped with the Duality Augment Mod. Fixed Mirage’s Eclipse not providing the Damage Reduction buff when positioned in the shadowed areas of Duviri and the Undercroft. Fixed Undercroft Jackal being overly affected by Cold Status Effects which would drastically slow down the fight. Fixed Gorgon Incarnon challenge for Evolution IV not resetting when reloading if you’re the Client. Fixed Nova’s Antimatter Drop damage being inconsistent between Host and Client. With the same Mod loadout, Clients were doing significantly less damage than the Host (who had the intended damage output). Fixed Decrees going missing after reconnecting to an active Duviri or Circuit session. Fixed Host migration causing Clients in the Circuit to not receive their Decree from collecting all the Decree Fragments and completing the stage. Fixed Orowyrm becoming immortal after destroying all its rings, causing a halt in progress. Fixed an issue where shooting enemies in Zephyr's Tornadoes would not register critical hits (notably with the Stahlta). Fixed weapons with Incarnon Genesis not being offered as options in Teshin's Cave. Fixed older accounts seeing incorrect on-screen controller callouts for the “Chord” binding in the Shawzin Duviri side-objective. Fixed Styanax’s Intrepid Stand Augment Mod unintentionally granting mind control immunity to Nyx’s mind-controlled enemies and Revenant’s Thralls. Fixed a bug where Atlas's Tectonics wall wouldn't respawn or roll when destroyed by enemies as a Client. Fixed Chroma’s elemental damage defaulting to Heat in the Undercroft regardless of the selected emissive colors. Fixed an issue in The Duviri Experience where players would lose their Decrees after Host migration. Fixed a loss of function after opening the Decree menu while being staggered in The Duviri Experience. Fixed the Data Mass in The Greenway Zariman Mobile Defense mission disappearing when attempting to pick up a Zarium Accolade. Fixed freezing in place while attempting to pick up items. Fixed Orokin Vaults not giving players an “Unidentified Reward” pop-up and reward in their Mission Progress Screen once players interact with the corrupted artifact. While players earned a random Corrupted Mod and Orokin Cipher through unlocking these vaults, these rewards were never used the “Unidentified Reward” pop-up that was introduced later in Warframe’s development. We’re adding it now to reduce any player confusion! Fixed an issue that allowed multiple Thumper weak points to be destroyed at the same time, resulting in it becoming invulnerable. Fixed triggering Galvanized Aptitude on the Telos Boltor Incarnon granting it far more direct hit damage (at times tenfold) than intended. Fixed being able to gain Affinity from Ember's Inferno when no enemies are within range. Affinity on Ability cast is tied to Energy cost, and since Inferno has a free-cast trait this slipped by! Fixes towards the Dex Drifter/Operator Suit not taking on black and dark saturated colors very well. Pure black ended up to be more of a shiny medium silver, and saturated colores ended up with a lot of white mixed in. Only very pale colors accurately reflected player color choices prior to this fix. Fixed the Codex being accessible during The New War Quest after restarting the game. Fixed the controller button callout missing in the HUD tip to use Transference on Umbra in The Sacrifice Quest. Fixed Kullervo being unable to move as well as getting permanently stuck in walls after using Wrathful Advance’s teleport mode (hold cast). Fixed Decrees from previous session being active in a new session after aborting from Duviri. Also fixed Decrees being active in non-Duviri missions. Fixed Decree UI from your last Duviri session appearing in non-Duviri missions. Fixed the Decree reroll button disappearing in Teshin’s Cave after selecting Warframe. Fixed case where players can get stuck in a bright white screen during the transition between Circuit stages. Fixed animation bug that caused Corufell’s Heavy Attack projectiles to add to the Combo Counter. Fixed Dread Incarnon not expending its remaining charges upon switching back from Incarnon Mode. Fixed Dread Incarnon’s Stalker’s Resentment perk (with Hate and Despair Equipped: Hits increase damage by +10, stacks up to 5x. Resets on missed shot) resetting if ANY arrow in a volley is missed. This has been changed to be much more forgiving, and will now reset if ALL arrows miss. Each projectile still contributes to the stacks. Fixed Specters ignoring ammo drops from Protea’s Dispensary. Fixed camera snapping 180 degrees upon triggering Last Grasp and Transference. Fixed Steel Path difficulty modifiers not applying to Void Angels. Fixed Ash’s Shruikens pathing being widely inconsistent when pressed up against objects (walls, etc.) when cast, causing them to not fly directly towards enemies. Fixed the Evolution IV challenge (Kill 40 enemies while airborne) for the Gammacor Incarnon (base and Synoid) tracking kills while not in the air as required. Fixed Overguard disappearing from the UI while riding K-Drive/Merulina. Fixed Excalibur Umbra sometimes ceasing to function after getting impaled by Void Angels. Fixed enemies remaining disarmed permanently from a disarming ability (e.g. Baruuk’s Desolate Hands) after Host migration. Fixed getting hit by Jackal's gridwall attack even while taking cover in a spot below it and made other general improvements to lasers vs. obstacle interactions. Fixed Ropalolyst becoming immune after Host migration during the final stage. Fixed the Navigation and other fast travel options disappearing from the pause menu upon aborting from a Railjack mission and returning to a Featured Dojo. Fixed Orowyrm having Shields unintentionally which made it impossible to defeat, even after destroying its rings. Fixed FOV settings getting reset to default upon restarting the game. Fixed Archon Nira getting downed and stuck in walls during her grapple ability. A small invulnerability phase has been added when she performs this ability to prevent this issue from occurring. Fixed enemy armor indicators not working properly with Steel Path modifiers. Maximum armor is now determined as the highest amount of modified armor the damage controller has had, rather than limited to explicit changes to the base armor rating since Steel Path doesn't change the base armor. Fixed a Host Migration issue for the Ropalolyst fight that allowed players to see a charged pillar which in reality was not charged at all! Fixed a Host Migration issue for the Ropalolyst fight that could leave Clients locked in the arena after the fight. Fixed a Host Migration issue that caused a Client to lose functionality when entering The Lone Story Undercroft. Fixed a Host Migration issue where not enough enemies would spawn during a Duviri Undercroft Defense. Fixed Pathocyst’s heavy charged projectile dealing the same damage as quick attack. Fixed Rauta's passive not adding Combo Counter to Melee weapons if the Melee has not already accumulated 1x Combo Counter through use. Fixed being able to apply crowd control effects to the Jackal on Venus, preventing unintended behavior. Fixed Braton Incarnon’s Prelude of Might perk always applying instead of on its intended trigger condition (with Critical Chance Below 50%). Fixed Hildryn missing controller rumbles for all of her abilities. General Fixes: Fixed becoming permanently stuck in Operator mode if a squadmate migrates while you are on a K-Drive or Merulina. Fixed using Transference after reviving with Last Gasp would cause strange camera snapping. Fixed Limbo being able to Banish Open Zone Excavators, which is inconsistent to other mission Excavators. Fixed certain causes of getting punted back to the Undercroft waiting area if you died in the Undercroft having not moved. Fixed the Captura Slow Motion setting applying to the pause menu UI motion and Arsenal UI motion. Fixed the skybox in both the Courtier’s Bliss and Harbinger's Pass Dojo Rooms turning default when another player is adding or destroying a Dojo Room. Fixed magazine remaining in the Warframe's left hand if the reload for the Tenet Flux Rifle is interrupted. Fixed being unable to enter the portals in Duviri (Teshin’s Cave and Undercroft) as Limbo while dashing. Fixed the extraction timer resetting after switching to Operator in the extraction zone. Fixed Saryn’s Molt lingering in the Railjack after completing a mission, which could damage nearby players when it explodes. Molts will now despawn upon returning from missions. Fixed friend invite notifications not showing up in many cases. Fixed Clients experiencing a loss of function after trying to visit the Host’s Dojo. Fixed Titania in Razorwing not rotating to match the direction players are facing when using Transference to swap between Warframe and Operator. Fixed Clients being unable to clear their Waypoint by holding the “Place Marker” input. Fixed Host getting stuck loading into Deck 12 after triggering it before Clients load into the Orb Vallis. Fixed becoming invisible after switching from Warframe to Operator quickly while inside a Sanctuary Onslaught Conduit. Fixed Ropalolyst’s health bar turning gray (UI-only issue, damage could still be dealt) after Client falls off the stage during the final sequence of the fight. Fixed enemies spawned during the Steel Path Ropalolyst fight not having the Steel Path modifiers applied to them. Fixed music disappearing in the second stage of The Deadlock Protocol Quest. As reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1364528-mission-of-deadlock-protocol-the-music-disappears-a-few-seconds-after-the-briefing-starts-in-the-back-room/ Fixed Ammo Dispensers in the Plains of Eidolon not giving ammo if interacted with as Operator. Fixed the “Defeat Archon” objective text in Archon Hunts for Clients appearing in the Host’s language. Fixed Nightmare mode UI displaying in the Host's language. Fixed Kaithe running free in Teshin’s Cave, making it impossible to preview changes to its appearance in its dedicated spot. We have installed a carrot to the ceiling in that spot to prevent this from happening again. Fixed case where enemies spawned into the Simulacrum were overlapping one another. Fixed the Ack & Brunt clipping through itself in Teshin’s Cave. Fixed the Syam and Sun & Moon displaying and equipping incorrectly in Teshin’s Cave (attempting to select the Syam would equip the Sun & Moon and vice versa). Fixed one of the Akvasto Prime pistols appearing as its base variant in Teshin’s Cave. Fixed Tonfa weapons appearing wonky in Teshin’s Cave. Fixed issues with how arrows appear in quivers for big Bow weapons (they will no longer appear to prevent future issues).

Congrats Tenno!! You made it to the end of 77 pages of patch notes! Thank you for reading and thank you for Warframe - we hope you enjoy Abyss of Dagath!
  13. Greetings Tenno! Grendel Prime Access has rolled out across all platforms, along with our Abyss of Dagath update - read on for a heaping helping of Riven Disposition talk. Some of you may recall that our last Riven Disposition changes involved a “pause” on Disposition decreases, as we observed usage stats on the newest Incarnon weapons. While these weapons are obviously quite powerful, our stats show that 6 months after their release, none of them are problematically meta-defining. So unless that changes, we plan to leave Rivens which affect Incarnons untouched for the foreseeable future! In the grand scheme of Warframe, Rivens contribute less to a weapon’s overall power than they did on release in 2016. So while adjustments do help us fine-tune usage and strength, we’ve heard your reactions to regular Disposition decreases, and have decided to try things a bit differently going forward. We will try our best to avoid decreases from now on. We still withhold the right to address overinflated values where necessary or change this approach if it doesn’t work out, but if a weapon is problematically powerful, we would ideally ensure the base weapon is in the right place before we consider a Disposition reduction. So similar to last time, here’s our current round of Riven Disposition adjustments. Thanks everyone! PRIMARIES SECONDARIES MELEE ARCHGUNS
  14. XBOX Echoes of Duviri: Hotfix #8 Changes: Updated the Cetus Wisp description to better indicate how to obtain them. “Most common at night, these stone lifeforms are drawn to shorelines touched by the Eidolon. They linger around lakes on the Plains of Eidolon at all hours. Their origin remains mysterious.” We have an additional QOL change coming to Cetus Wisps in the upcoming Abyss of Dagath Update - stay tuned! Fixes: Fixed being unable to chatlink the Gotva Prime. Fixed being able to use Transference in the second stage of the Duviri Paradox Quest, resulting in players being stuck as the Drifter. Fixed various pathing issues with Executioner Zura in Dog Days. Fixed Medusalyst Towers not having their projectile weapon if Kahl has died before reaching them in the “Prison Break” Break Narmer mission. Click here for the Known Issues List
  15. NSW Echoes of Duviri: Hotfix #7 We are back in action after an incredible TennoCon! Thank you Tenno for joining us in celebrating 10 Years of Warframe and sharing your excitement for the future with each reveal. Today we have a Hotfix with changes and fixes we wanted to get out to you before the DE team heads off into a long weekend to get some much needed rest. We will officially be back on Tuesday, September 5th, but will continue to monitor for issues that would need addressing upon our return. Thank you! Changes: Increased Platinum amounts in the Frost and Mag Heirloom Packs - full details available in the official PSA: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1364919-psa-heirloom-collection-platinum-changes-lessons/ Updated the Gotva Prime description to clarify its unique perk, it now reads: "Long before clone-rot set in, elite Grineer Commanders protected the surviving Orokin from rebelling Warframes with these formidable rifles. When Gotva Prime inflicts a Status Effect its next shot has a chance to be a Super Critical hit." Made updates to Gotva Prime’s audio (cease fire SFX, Host/Client mixing, and firing mixing). Optimizations: Optimized the VFX on the Frost Heirloom Signa. Fixes: Fixed several issues with Double Tap’s buff indicator: (Latron and Latron Wraith) Fixed the buff indicator being stuck at 100% and not adjusting based on hits. (Latron Prime) Fixed the buff icon not showing up in the HUD (this was a UI issue only, the intended damage bonus was still applying). Fixed the Melee Combo Count from the Rauta lasting indefinitely when Combo Duration is set to 0 (ex: equipping the Melee Guidance Aura that reduces Combo Duration for self by 6s). Now if the Combo Duration has no positive value, the Rauta will not increase the Melee Combo Count just as it wouldn’t for any other Melee. Fixed the Rauta having an extremely long reload time for Clients after receiving the infinite ammo buff from cracking Void Relics in Fissure missions. Fixed Drifter Loneryder items being unintentionally given with the Dex Operator and Drifter Suit 10 Year Anniversary inbox. Those who have received the Loneryder items prior to this Hotfix are yours to keep! Happy Anniversary! Fixed the Vigorous Swap Mod applying in Dog Days when switching between the Soaktron and Lob Blobs. With the inclusion of the Lob Blobs Secondary, this Mod just slipped by the “no Mods, Buffs, Companions, or Abilities” rules of Dog Days. Fixed Frost Heirloom Signa’s VFX lingering after it has been unequipped in the Arsenal. Fixed Clients gaining more progress than intended when finding a Paragrimm’s Tome in Duviri. Fixed the following Dojo Decorations having off-centered anchor points, making it difficult to move and position them: Electricity Electricity Arcs Glow Bright Fixed the TennoCon logo still appearing in the Relays. Fixed the Laetum Incarnon’s bullets facing the wrong direction. Fixed being unable to chat link Frost Prime and Mag Prime Relics. Fixed the “Titan Extractor Prime” being listed twice in the description of Varzia’s Prime Resurgence offerings instead of including the Blueprint as well as the built Extractor. Fixed a script error after failing a mission. Fixed a script error with the Lob Blobs tutorial popup in Dog Days. Fixed a rare crash that could occur when using DirectX 12 after upgrading drivers.
