NIGHTWAVE FAQ

What is Nightwave?
Ongoing pirate radio broadcast hosted by Nora Night, the eyes and ears of the Origin System. Each Nightwave Series will unfold over several weeks and tell a brand-new story. Completing daily and weekly challenges - called Acts - will unlock limited-time rewards.

How do I earn Nightwave rewards?
Complete Acts and rank up your Nightwave Standing to earn power items, exclusive Customizations, Nightwave-specific currency and more! Make sure to complete all 30 Ranks before the Series is over to earn all the rewards.

How long will Series 3 run?
We don't have an exact end date yet, but expect Series 3 to run for at least two months. An official announcement will be made on our Forums at a later date! Each Series is a fresh start for all players, which means your Crystal Cred will expire when the Series is completed. Spend them before they disappear!

What are Episodes? When will new Episodes come out?
Episodes are introduced throughout the course of a Nightwave Series, which move the story along and may include in-game changes (e.g. more enemies, stronger enemies).

Healing Defendable Objects

Healing Abilities and Damage Reduction changes shared on April 3 have arrived! If you’re unfamiliar, these changes allow for Healing Abilities to be of more use in different strategies throughout various Mission types. Healing Defense objects can serve well as an alternative or a complement to the commonly used defensive Abilities, such as Frost's Snow Globe, Gara's Mass Vitrify, Limbo's Cataclysm.

Nintendo Switch Update Size

The total download size for this update is ~800 MB, bringing Warframe’s total size to 20.3 GB, right under the base memory allowance. For Tenno who have not equipped their Nintendo Switch with an SD card, this means that having the necessary space may soon be necessary to accept future updates. We know this is not ideal, but we thank you for your understanding.
