The Arena mode is a new gamemode you can play in solo or with a squad (up to 4). You can access it from Simaris after buying the key for 100 000 standing.
Basically, this is just an endless mission where you have to defeat multiple waves of enemis and stay longer as possible in a close arena, but with something special. In this game mode, you will not be able to bring your own loadout.

When starting, you will have to choose a starting Warframe (Excalibur, Volt or Mag) and 3 Mk1-weapons but enemis will drop various warframes, weapons and mods you will be able to equip between each waves.
At the end of each wave, you will have access to your arenal to equip what you've got during the missions.

  • Enemis will randomly drop warframes or weapons your already mastered but to not advantage players who only played with "strong" weapons without caring of "bad" ones, the drop chance would be equal for each weapon in the game, meaning a player with less mastered weapons would have less chance to get a weapon.
    Imagine each weapon have 1% chance to drop from an ennemi, player A have 3 weapons and players B have 10 weapons. Player A will have 3% chance to get a weapon while player B have 10% chance to get one but if they both have Tonkor, they both will have the same chances to get it.
     
  • Enemis will drop random based mods like rivens, scaling with the waves number. The mod have no level, no cost and you can obviously equip more than one because they are the only aviable mods on this game mode.
    The number of random mods should not be an issue in the servers stockage since mods are not saved on your account, they are only aviable on the mission during you play it.
     
  • At the end of each wave, you will have an access to your arsenal and the "ready menu" would work exactly the same as Raids. You can see the loadout of your allies, there is a button to be ready or not and host can launch whenever he want (but most preferable when everyone is ready).
     
  • In the loadout menu, you can recycle a warframe for a chance to get a random augment mod or recycle a weapon/mod to get a random mod.
    Obviously, you have to keep at least one warframe, primary, secondary and melee weapon.


To add more challenge, some boss could be added each 10 waves (maybe in the order of the starchart). Sadly, archwings could not be added because I dont really know how to do a fluid transition between ground play and archinwgs and it would also complicate everything in term of ingame mods and stuff drops.

I didn't think about the rewards but there are plenty of good things that can be given depending on your score : Endo, Transmutation cores, Simaris standing or even Rivens (it would be logic since Riven are Cephalon based technology).
