UPDATE 43: JADE SHADOWS: CONSTELLATIONS 

A new and terrible education awaits on Venus… 

The Jade Shadows: Constellations Quest continues Stalker’s story with an unlikely reality where both outcomes of a past decision are in an endless battle to prevail over the other. Step into this new cinematic Quest as the shadow and put a stop to this eternal conflict.  

Come face to face with Sirius & Orion and their mentors. Orion is guided by Vena, Garuda’s Protoframe, the blood-drenched Wytch. Sirius is mentored by Ryoku, Ash’s Protoframe, the blade swarm assassin. Both sides vying to erase the other in order to secure their future. 

Completing the Quest will unlock access to the Uranus Proxima, where you can play two new Railjack missions: Scoria’s Angel and The Kuva Wytch. Join either Vena or Ryoku with their own Railjack and crew in an epic hunt to take the other down. Completing these missions will reward you with new resources used to trade at a secret vendor in Pontis Tower, a new hub located in Uranus. 

Wield the power of the stars with Sirius & Orion, our 65th Warframe. Two Warframes in one, in a constant duel for supremacy. They bring with them their signature Heavy Scythes, Pride and Wrath, each granting their own Melee buffs for Slam Attacks. 

Embrace bloodlust with Vena’s Gemini Skin for Garuda or become a calculated killer with Ryoku’s Gemini Skin for Ash. Each comes with their own Gemini Emote showcasing these rivals' disposition and lethality. 

Vena and Ryoku aren’t the only blade-proficient warriors in this update… Spears are also flying from Styanax Prime! Become the ultimate golden hoplite with Styanax Prime, Afentis Prime, Athodai Prime and his Prime Accessories with Styanax Prime Access. 

The stars aligned and brought you even more to gaze upon in this update, Tenno! Knowledge glides on dark wings with the Dante Tytonis Collection. Railjack missions can now be played on The Steel Path difficulty. The Obex, Destreza, Stug, Ballistica, and Vectis Incarnons are also here. New Warframe Augment Mods for Dante, Nokko, Koumei and Temple have been added to Faction Syndicates. Nidus’ abilities have received a touch up and we’ve packed this update with loads of Quality of Life changes. And so much more to discover! 

Thank you to Sumo Digital for co-developing the Railjack content, as well as the Vena & Ryoku cosmetic items in this update!

 

Spoiler Courtesy

While everyone will find the truth eventually, we ask that you help preserve the mystery for fellow Tenno as they enjoy the update at their own pace. As this is a sequel to Jade Shadows, we also ask to be mindful of spoilers from that quest as well, as some players may be playing it for the first time. Please read our Spoiler Courtesy PSA to learn more about how you can post with best spoiler-free practices!

 

Update 43 is a Mainline Update! 

Meaning that everything the team has been working on since the launch of Update 42: The Shadowgrapher 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 Jade Shadows: Constellations subforums to address in follow-up Hotfixes.

Screenshot & Video Recording Features
Jade Shadows: Constellations brings the screenshot feature back for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 consoles. It also allows Switch 2 users to use the video recording feature that was previously disabled with Voruna Prime Hotfix #8. You can now snap and record in-game moments to your heart’s content! The video recording feature remains disabled on the Nintendo Switch due to its heavy usage of RAM which is limited on the console. 

• Screenshot re-enabled note: When parental controls are on, you will only see the default clan emblem.

NEW QUEST: JADE SHADOWS: CONSTELLATIONS

When a great Sentient summons the Stalker to a bizarre conflict unfolding in the Orb Vallis, he must confront the shocking consequences of his own actions. The shadows of his future, Sirius & Orion, have come calling in this new cinematic quest, and they are not alone. 

Joining them are their mentors: Vena (loyal to Orion) and Ryoku (loyal to Sirius). Each has taken one of the feuding Warframes under their respective wings to find Stalker and ensure the survival of their future over the other.  

Prerequisite: Complete the Jade Shadows quest to unlock the Jade Shadows: Constellations quest in your Codex. 

Quest Duration: The quest will vary from player to player but can take roughly 30-40 minutes to complete. 

Quest Specifics:

• You will not be able to access other Warframe content until it is complete. 
• It is worth noting that decisions made in the Jade Shadows quest will be reflected in Jade Shadows: Constellations. But fret not! After completing the Constellations quest, there will be a way to change your decision from the Pontis Tower. More on that in the “New Hub: Pontis Tower” dedicated section. 
• This quest introduces new Protoframes! Vena (Garuda’s Protoframe) and Ryoku (Ash’s Protoframe). Instead of learning about them from the KIM system, you’ll do so in the new Railjack missions and after recruiting them as crew for your personal Railjack – details on all of that and more available in the “New Railjack Missions” and “New Elite Crew For Personal Railjack” sections. 

Image Description: Screenshot of Orion’s and Sirius’ Swaddle Syandanas both which resemble wings and match the sons’ primary color. On the left is Orion’s who has the Syandana placed on his left shoulder, and on the right is Sirius’ with the Syandana on his right shoulder.

URANUS PROXIMA 

Completing the Jade Shadows: Constellations Quest unlocks the Uranus Proxima - where two new Railjack missions and a new hub called the Pontis Tower resides. 
 

Image Description: Vena and Ryoku both stare at us with backdrops of their respective Capital Ship interiors behind them. Vena’s red ship has a spotlight shining overhead while Ryoku’s green ship seems full of smoke.

New Railjack Missions

Pick a side, Tenno. Will you team up with Vena or Ryoku?

Two new Railjack missions are available to play from the Uranus Proxima after you complete the Jade Shadows: Constellations quest: Scoria’s Angel and The Kuva Wytch. Take command of Vena or Ryoku’s fully-equipped Railjacks to aid in their objective of breaking into the other’s Capital Ships and dispatching them. 

Each mission is uniquely tied to aiding either Vena or Ryoku in their skirmishes against one another: 

• The Kuva Wytch: Skirmish Against Vena. Aid Ryoku with his Railjack and crew. 
• Scoria’s Angel: Skirmish Against Ryoku. Aid Vena with her Railjack and crew. 

How to Access

You can access the new Railjack missions in the following ways:

1. From Navigation 

• Enter Navigation and select the Railjack toggle in the top right corner 
• Select Uranus Proxima 
• Select The Kuva Wytch or Scoria’s Angel mission node (normal or Steel Path) 
  • More information on Steel Path Railjack in the dedicated section below 

2. From Pontis Tower

• Enter Navigation and select Uranus (appears in both default and Railjack navigation)
• Select the Pontis Tower node
• In Pontis Tower walk or fast travel (from pause menu or quick access wheel) to Vena or Ryoku. The fast travel options are: 
  • Skirmish Against Vena (The Kuva Wytch node) 
  • Skirmish Against Ryoku (Scoria’s Angel node) 
• Proceed through the portal behind Vena and Ryoku to enter their Railjack Dock 
• Interact with the console to the right to board their Railjack 
  • If matchmaking is set to Solo prior to entering Pontis Tower, you will also see the option to board your personal Railjack. 
• Select “Begin Mission” from the Navigation console in the Railjack to start the mission
  • Before beginning the mission, you also have the option to toggle the difficulty between normal and Steel Path. 

Gameplay 

Ally with Vena or Ryoku and embark on a treacherous journey in new Railjack missions that combine the Skirmish and Assassinate gamemodes into one. Each mission begins with a Railjack combat sequence to thwart the opposition Protoframe’s operations and gather intel to board their capital ship. 

Once you’ve breached the ship, you and your ally will fight through hazards, traps and special enemy units to go face to face with their rival in a final epic arena battle. Coming out victorious will complete the mission and reward you for your efforts, including special resources for each mission to purchase goods from a secret vendor in Pontis Tower (more on that in the “Rewards” section). 

Mission Features 

Both missions have the following features:  

• Difficulty: These missions can be played on Normal or Steel Path difficulty. 
  • We’ve also introduced Steel Path for all Railjack missions! Learn more in the dedicated section. 
• Matchmaking:
  • Playing With A Squad:  While playing with a squad (premade and public matchmaking),  you use Vena and Ryoku’s special Railjacks, not your own. They are styled to each Protoframe’s aesthetics and come fully equipped with their very own personalized loadouts. 
  • Playing Solo: Follow these steps in order to use your personal Railjack: 
    • Set matchmaking to Solo from your Base of Operations 
    • Open Navigation and select Pontis Tower
    • In Pontis Tower, proceed to the boarding console in Vena/Ryoku’s Railjack Dock 
    • Following the above steps will trigger a secondary boarding option “Board Personal Railjack (Solo)” to appear on the console. Select it to board your personal Railjack.
    • From inside your Railjack, select the “Begin Mission” option from the Navigation console. 
    • Important Notes: 
      • Any changes you wish to make to your personal Railjack before the mission must be done in the Dry Dock. 
      • You must follow the above steps in order to use your personal Railjack. Starting the mission Solo from outside of Pontis Tower will default to Vena/Ryoku’s Railjack. 
• Crew: 
  • Playing With A Squad: Vena/Ryoku will join you in their respective missions, as well as their own crew if you do not have a full squad. 
    • Like your own crew, each member can be reassigned a role via the Tactical Menu. 
  • Playing Solo: Your own personal crew will be used instead of Vena and Ryoku’s. 
    • Reminder again that any changes you wish to make to your crew must be done from the Dry Dock before loading into Pontis Tower. 
• Railjack Intrinsics: 
  • Using Vena/Ryoku’s Railjack: Regardless of your personal progress with each Railjack Intrinsics class (Tactical, Piloting, Gunnery, Engineering, Command), when you are playing The Kuva Wytch and Scoria’s Angel missions using Vena/Ryoku’s Railjacks you have access to all the Rank 10 perks.
  • Using Personal Railjack: Your own Railjack Intrinsics ranks are used in these missions. 
    • Intrinsic points can also be earned during Railjack combat. 
• Archwing Disabled: Since these missions are specifically designed for Railjack and ground combat (once in the capital ships), Archwing is disabled to keep focus on those objectives. 
• Unlimited Resource Forge: This means that players have unlimited Revolite (for Omni Tool), Ordnance Munitions and Dome Charges. 

 

Scoria’s Angel: Skirmish Against Ryoku  

Vena is out for blood, Ryoku’s to be specific. 

Join her in her Railjack The Marrowbone to sniff out his capital ship by any means necessary, including ramsleeding his ship with blood-infused ice. Locating Ryoku on his home soil means one thing… he and his Bladeswarm units must be taken down! Satisfy Vena’s bloodlust and complete the mission by defeating Ryoku in a final showdown. 

Vena’s Railjack: The Marrowbone

Outfitted for interception and maximum damage, The Marrowbone is as powerful and punishing as the Wytch who commands her. Take flight in this bloody monstrosity and ally with Vena to locate Ryoku and bleed him dry.

Image Description: Screenshot of Ryoku’s capital ship, a large dark grey vessel of cylindrical design. Green holographic flags adorn the ship which has blue barrel-like attachments both on its underside and on its right-end.
 

Ryoku’s Capital Ship

You won’t only be dodging Ryoku’s blades here, as he’s fortified his warship with many booby traps. A stealth master won’t let you get very far in his own domain. 

Image Description: Screenshot of the interior of Ryoku’s capital ship. Green pools of toxic liquid fill the bottom levels of the ship’s interior and give off a faint haze. In the distance we see a familiar sensor bar meant to detect any intruders.

Within the many laser walls and obstacles a secret room resides. Only those who can embody the quick thinking of an assassin can find their way in to receive the Kyzen Signa – ancient assassin techniques meet future technology.

Image Description: Ryoku poses as if about to punch a foe while wearing the Kyzen Signa aboard his ship. The Signa’s light green energy forms what looks like a scouter or scanner over his right eye.

 

The Kuva Wytch: Skirmish Against Vena

Ryoku is turning the tables, it's Vena’s turn to bleed. 

Join him in his Railjack Santovan’s Oath to take out her operations and put a stop to her for good in her capital ship. Make use of a dangerous weapon Vena has been toying with to break into her ship. Defeat Vena and her Bloodfrenzy units in a final bloody battle to complete the mission. 

Ryoku’s Railjack: Santovan’s Oath

Befitting a master assassin, Santovan's Oath employs cloaking, ranged weapons and regenerative ammunition to strike swiftly with deadly precision. Climb aboard Ryoku's vessel and ally yourself with the Ash Protoframe for the chance to hunt Vena and cut her down to size.

• Slot 1: Orphoron 
• Slot 2: Piliotzi 
• Slot 3: Domito

 

Image Description: Screenshot of Vena’s capital ship, a large vessel shaped almost like a tuning fork with thrusters at the base. The ship features a mixture of greys, blacks, and reds as its colors. 
 

Vena’s Capital Ship

Crimson pools run through the Wytch’s capital ship, a bloody sight! A lair fit for bloodfrenzied and a potentially deadly end for all those who enter.  

Image Description: Screenshot of the interior of Vena’s capital ship. Sparks fly overhead as a decapitated statue of Parvus Granum stands in the center of the room. At the base of the statue lies red splatter which also is on the face of the statue.
 

Within its bloodspattered walls a treasure is stowed… and only those who have a keen eye can find the way into a secret room to receive the Karotic Signa – A bloodstained gaze washes all in red.

Image Description: Vena models the Karotic Signa, a wide-V shaped mask of flowing blood while aboard her ship. The mask covers her entire face leaving only her lips revealed.
 

New Enemies

Vena and Ryoku aren’t operating alone! You’ll encounter new Railjack and ground enemies to fight off in the hunt to find their commanding officer. They can be scanned for Codex entries to learn about their vulnerabilities and reward drops. 

In The Kuva Wytch, you’ll encounter her Bloodfrenzy units. 

In Scoria’s Angel, you’ll encounter his Bladeswarm units.

Note: The change is not immediate and the new Primary Son will take the lead position after leaving Pontis Tower. 

 

STEEL PATH RAILJACK MISSIONS

With the advent of this update, a challenge emerges for Tenno who have fortified their ships and raised a fine crew - Steel Path for Railjack. You may now embark on Steel Path versions of Railjack missions to face more difficult foes. Like Archwing missions, Steel Path Railjack missions have a reduced mission modifier of +50 Enemy Level (instead of +100). Steel Path Railjack will not feature the increased Mod drop chance but all other modifiers on the Steel Path are unchanged. 

That said, the mission difficulty is expanded in other ways, so expect an increased number of Fighters and Crewships to defeat!

Unlocking Railjack Steel Path

If you already have unlocked The Steel Path in the Star Chart, and have completed a Railjack mission in Normal Path then a new option will be presented to you for Steel Path for that Railjack mission.

Railjack Steel Path Trophy

Since each Proxima has a smaller number of nodes than usual planets, Steel Path Railjack has one combined trophy. Complete all Railjack Nodes (this does not include Free Flight, Adversary Confrontations, or Ryoku’s/Vena’s missions) on the Steel Path to earn the trophy and 50 Steel Essence.

Steel Essence

Acolytes cannot spawn in Railjack, so we are adding Eximus enemies to Steel Path Railjack missions exclusively (i.e. they will not spawn on the Normal Path). Eximus enemies in Steel Path Railjack have a chance to drop Steel Essence when defeated as well as Riven Slivers. Since this is our first foray into adding Steel Essence as a drop from normal enemies, we will be closely monitoring acquisition rates when this launches. For more information about our drop rates please see our official drop table.

NEW WARFRAME: SIRIUS & ORION

Wield the power of the stars in a constant battle for supremacy. The dueling sons, Sirius & Orion, occupy the space of a single Warframe, jockeying for position to rain cosmic destruction upon foes.

NOTE: Sirius & Orion are not available in Teshin’s Cave upon launch due to them causing double the trouble in Duviri. Rest assured, we’ll be adding them to the pool of available Warframes in the future once Dominus Thrax learns to handle being outnumbered. 

Swapping Between Sirius and Orion 

Sirius & Orion allow you to swap between two Warframes. Unlike Equinox, who shifts between her Day and Night forms, Sirius & Orion are separate Warframes with their own builds and abilities. Tap to cast your active Warframe’s ability, or Hold to cast the ability of the inactive Son, thereby swapping to him. 

The inactive Son remains on the battlefield, following the Primary Son and attacking enemies in his wake, similar to Wukong’s Celestial Twin or a Specter.

Before we get into their kits, we want to go over how equipment and enhancements are shared between Sirius & Orion so you have a better understanding of how they operate. Please note that this list is not comprehensive, but rather serves as a general overview of their quirks. 

Image Description: Composite image of two screenshots of the Arsenal UI for Sirius & Orion. In the top screenshot we see Orion in the first slot with options to Swap, Upgrade, Appearance, and Abilities. In the bottom screenshot we can see that Sirius occupies the slot below Orion and has all the aforementioned options.

Shared Enhancements and Equipment: 

• Sirius & Orion use the same Archon Shards
• Loadout (equipped weapons, companions, etc.)
• Focus Lens (installable only on Sirius)
• Mastery Points
• Helminth Invigorations

Individual Enhancements and Equipment:

• Warframe Builds, including Mods* and Arcanes
  • * Note: Auras apply to both Sirius & Orion due to their effects being squad-wide. That said, duplicate Auras will not stack when equipped on both Sirius & Orion. 
• Polarities (including new ones from installed Forma)
• Helminth Abilities
  • Helminth Abilities can only be Infused on the Primary Son. Even if you swap Primary Sons and infuse an ability on both, the Secondary Son will only have their default abilities available in-mission. 
  • Note: Helminth Abilities with a Hold/Tap mechanic will override the Hold to Swap mechanic of the Ability it was subsumed over. So if you Infuse Eclipse over Orion’s first Ability, you’ll be able to use both the damage reduction and damage buff mechanic of that Ability, but won’t be able to swap to Sirius by holding that First Ability anymore. 

Primary and Secondary Son Mechanic:

When entering a mission, you’ll always do so as the Primary Son — either Sirius or Orion. You can swap between brothers easily in-mission but the Primary Son has access to a few special qualities that the Secondary Son does not:

• Only the Primary Son can have a Helminth Ability Infused.
  • Even if you swap Primary Sons and infuse an ability on both, the Secondary Son will only have their default abilities available in-mission. 
• Only the Primary Son can use items from the Gear Wheel.
  • Activating an item from the Gear Wheel as the Secondary Son will forcibly swap you to the Primary Son.
  • This restriction is considered a bug, not a feature — we intend to give the Secondary Son the ability to use Gear with our next Cert cycle.
• Only the Primary Son will walk around in Hubs and the Base of Operations.
  • Known Issue: Other players will only see Sirius in Hubs even if Orion is selected as the Primary Warframe.

While these restrictions may seem confusing, think of the Secondary Son as an Exalted Warframe (except maybe don’t tell Sirius or Orion that). The team did their best to give players the most agency when swapping between Sons, but there are ultimately limitations on what we could accomplish.

The Primary Son changes depending on your progress with the Jade Shadows storyline:

• Sirius the default Primary Son if you haven’t completed the Jade Shadows quest*
• If you have completed the Jade Shadows quest, the chosen name will become the Primary Son 
• The Primary Son can be changed at any time in the Pontis Tower (after completing Jade Shadows: Constellations)

* Since Sirius is the default Primary Son — and therefore Orion is the default Secondary Son (aka Exalted Warframe) — only one copy of Orion can be owned. Upgrade and Appearance changes to Orion apply to all Orions if multiple Sirius & Orions are owned.  

Sirius & Orion’s Abilities

Passive

Swapping between Sirius and Orion grants 45% Ability Efficiency for the next 2 casts.

When below 50 energy, Sirius & Orion steal energy from each other.

First Ability

CORONAL EJECTION (SIRIUS)

Hurl Sirius’ Jade Light infused scythe, dealing Heat Damage while collecting any pickups in its path.

GRAVITIC SLASH (ORION)

Repel enemies with Orion’s sinister scythe, dealing Slash Damage and Status Effect while reducing shields and armor.

Second Ability

JADE STARS (SIRIUS)

Sirius conjures Jade Light motes that slowly regenerate over time. Attacking enemies launches the motes, dealing Heat Damage and Status Effect. 

ASTRAL SHELL (ORION) 

Envelop Orion in an Astral Shell. Upon taking damage, the shell becomes a decoy that draws fire until it’s destroyed.

Jade Stars and Astral Shell are Sirius & Orion’s Helminth Ability. When Subsuming this Warframe, you get access to both Abilities as an option to Infuse in another Warframe (but cannot be used to swap Warframes when Infused).  

Third Ability

LIGHT’S SANCTUARY (SIRIUS)

Sirius creates a well of light that heals and revives allies, while reducing incoming damage. The well slowly grows in size and power. 

EVENT HORIZON (ORION)

Orion forms a drifting black hole, trapping enemies within its gravity. Hitting the black hole with Gravitic Slash/Corona Ejection will extend its duration and change its trajectory: Gravitic Slash will direct it away from Orion, and Coronal Ejection will pull it towards Sirius.

Light’s Sanctuary / Event Horizon is Sirius & Orion’s Railjack Ability, depending on which son is Active. 

Fourth Ability: Celestial Clash

Sirius and Orion take to the skies in a cosmic duel. Each attack consumes a Constellation Star to inflict colossal collateral Blast damage. Match the star’s color to the Warframe’s color to gain increased Critical Chance. The color of the next star will be reflected in your UI, which also corresponds to the input needed to attack — Sirius’ icons appear on the left side, which are triggered by either the Left Click or Left Triggers, and Orion on the right. For those with highly-customized bindings, they are assigned to Primary Attack and Aim Down Sights respectively. 

CONSTELLATION STARS

Constellation Stars start appearing once Celestial Clash is unlocked. Generate Constellation Stars by using abilities. No more than two stars of the same color/shape* can be added in a row. 

* Sirius’ abilities generate round-base Stars, and Orion’s generate diamond-base Stars. The Constellation HUD will also match the Star color to each Son’s Energy tint channel (default green for Sirius, and red for Orion).

Image Description: Nidus stares off into the distance with his helmet open while standing among his Ravenous Infestation.

NIDUS RETOUCH

Nidus burst onto the scene in 2016 as the first Warframe to use an alternate cost for Ability casting. While his Mutation Stacks are a cornerstone of his kit, maintaining them has become more and more difficult as Warframe’s gameplay loop has become faster. Our goals with this retouch are to improve his overall rate of Mutation Stack acquisition, and sprinkle in some general quality of life changes as well!

 

Stat Changes:

• Increased Nidus’ Health from 555 to 675, and Nidus Prime’s Health from 650 to 825.
• Doubled his innate health regeneration. 

 

Passive

• Increased the maximum Mutation Stacks from 100 to 200.
• Improved the Mutation Stack counter’s ability to track rapid Stack growth (as sometimes it would take a while to catch up). 

Abundant Mutation Augment

•  Increased additional maximum Mutation Stacks from 200 to 300.

 

Ability 1: Virulence

Virulence is often cast over and over to quickly build Mutation Stacks. Our aim with the following changes were to make Virulence more impactful when building Mutation Stacks, while hopefully reducing the need to spam-cast. 

• Virulence now does damage upon initial hit, and then continues to do damage over time for any enemies touched by Virulence during its duration.
  • This initial damage and the damage over time both contribute towards Mutation Stacks, meaning Virulence won’t have to be spammed to quickly gain Mutation Stacks. 
  • The Energy Refund / Hit still only applies to the initial hit.
• Virulence’s duration now scales with Ability Duration.
  • Also slightly increased the base Duration of Virulence growths. 
• Improved Virulence’s ability to move across surfaces of varying heights. 
• Updated Ability Description to specify damage type (Impact) and clarify Damage done per Mutation Stack. 

Teeming Virulence Augment

• Increased Primary Weapon Critical Chance from 120% to 150%.

 

Ability 2: Larva

Larva is a crowd control tool that synergizes with Virulence, but it was in need of a slight quality of life lift:

• Larva’s chance to generate a Mutation Stack now scales with Ability Strength, up to 100% chance.
• Larva can now be recast, which will remove the previous Larva in the process. 

Larva Burst Augment

• Now applies one guaranteed Toxin Status Effect for every enemy grabbed.
  • Previously would only apply one Toxin Status Effect to each enemy, but now the number of Effects scales with the number of enemies grabbed.

 

Ability 3: Parasitic Link

The most pressing issue to address with Parasitic Link was its ease of use, especially for controller/mobile players. The goal of these changes is to make Parasitic Link more forgiving to cast and maintain. 

• Improved the targeting on Parasitic Link, as it would often require too much precision for a fast-moving game.
  • Recasting will also now immediately move the Parasitic Link to the new target.
  • Players can recast Parasitic Link on the same target to refresh duration.
• Parasitic Link no longer costs Mutation Stacks to cast. It now costs 25 Energy.
• Added a 3 second grace period before the Link breaks. 
• Specters and free-moving Companions (like Kavats) can now be targeted. 

Parasitic Vitality Augment

• Unchanged.

 

Ability 4: Ravenous

Ravenous is a good representation of our technical limitations from 2016 —  and the changes below illustrate how far we’ve come since then. This ability benefits the most in this retouch from our work on other Warframe abilities, namely Uriel, and Vauban’s rework!

• Ravenous’ radius now scales with Ability Range.
• Increased Health Regen per second from 20 to 75. 
  • Healing pulses now also cleanse Status Effects. 
• Maggot improvements:
  • Maggots now trigger Summoner’s Wrath. 
  • Improved Maggot targeting logic and overall speed. 
  • Reduced the Maggot spawn delay.
  • Recasting Ravenous to refresh its duration (while you’re standing on it) will now cause Maggots to explode. 
  • Added damage numbers to Maggots’ attacks. 
• Fixed newly spawned Maggots not taking Nidus’ updated Mutation Stacks into account for damage scaling.
  • Previously they would use the Stack count when Ravenous was initially cast.

Insatiable Augment

• Unchanged.

 

QUALITY OF LIFE (QOL) CHANGES

Image Description: Screenshot of the interior of a Corpus ship with a planet visible through a window to the left and a statue of Parvos Granum in the center of the room to the right. Overhead lights create realistic shadows across different areas of the ship and a slight haze can be seen behind the statue.

Corpus Ship Relight

You may have traversed the hallways of Corpus Ships before but you’ve never seen them like this. Corpus Ship levels have been relit with our new GI volume technology, along with a reworked lighting color palette for better pathing and enhanced quality.

With the new GI volume technology, players can expect to experience:

• New Froxel-based Volumetric Fog which means more realistic and light-reactive fog and god rays within missions.
• Greater reflection parity for Warframes which results in more accurate reflections on surfaces as you explore the tilesets.
• Improved visual fidelity for both characters and environments in relit cinematics for the Sisters of Parvos Quest.

Prepare to immerse yourself in our upgraded environments as you squash the Corpus’ means for profit.
 

Image Description: On the left, a Liset flies towards a Junction in space with an azure trail following from its thrusters. A column of energy can be seen throughout the center of the Junction, culminating in a massive energy orb firing a beam out into the distance.

Junction Specter Changes

• The Venus, Saturn, and Eris Junction bosses have received a refresh — the Volt, Ember, and Mesa Specters have been updated with mechanics from their Prime Vanguard counterparts. 
  • Our goal with this change is to make these fights compelling, while being mindful of difficulty concerns since defeating them is critical for player progression. 
• Other Specter-specific changes:
  • Halved the damage bonus of the Saryn Specter's Toxic Lash.
  • Valkyr Specter now casts Abilities more consistently.
• Junction-wide changes:
  • Added Ammo and Energy Pickup generators to all Junction Specter arenas.
  • Standardized damage resistances for Junction Specters to match that of the Primed Vanguard.
  • Removed Shields from Junction Specters, and increased their Health to compensate.

 

Image Description: Screenshot with visual representation of the different positions for the Side and Far Presets. From the Side Preset denoted by a yellow silhouette, Rhino is slightly to the left vs the default position. From the Far Preset denoted by a green silhouette, Rhino is slightly smaller in proportion than the default position and is shifted to the right.

New Camera Position Setting

Added the Camera Position feature to User Interface settings, which allows players to customize their camera offset. This new setting comes with three options:

• Default: The standard Camera position (what you’re used to with Warframe currently)
• Side Offset: The Camera is further to the side (this setting also respects your chosen “side” of the screen, if you use the Reverse Camera input)
• Far Offset: The Camera is further back and higher up, giving you the greatest visibility of the three.

 

Knockdown System Improvements

• Knockdowns from enemies now use the same animations as the self-stagger system — meaning you’ll no longer be knocked straight on your back from a Grineer Heavy Gunner’s slam.
• Increased the Knockdown recovery window from 70ms to 433ms.
  • Jumping or rolling during this window will allow you to recover from the knockdown more quickly. 
• Warframes will now flash briefly if they have successfully recovered from a knockdown.

 

Image Description: Koumei aims at a burning enemy who is afflicted with several statuses. The enemy’s health bar is split into three segments, orange, green, and grey where green represents the new damage over time portion.

Damage Over Time Preview

Damage Over Time (DOT) Status Effects are now reflected by a new “Damage Over Time Preview” indicator on healthbars, showcasing the exact amount of damage they will deal over their duration.

• This new indicator will display the damage that will be dealt across Health, Shields, and/or Overguard.
• Damage Over Time that applies lethal damage will result in a black outline around the health bar. 
• This indicator only applies to DOT from Status Effects, not Abilities that deal damage over time.
  • Ex: Damage from Saryn’s Spores will not be reflected in this new indicator, but damage from the Status Effects dealt by Koumei’s Bunraku will. 
• Players can change the color of this indicator via the Customize Hud Colors screen in the Accessibility settings. 

 

Other Quality of Life Changes

• Reworked the level design of the rotating Defense (and Interception variant) tile in Grineer Sealab tileset to improve pathing and overall gameplay flow.
  • The path between objectives is now much clearer, and features easy-to-access ziplines between Defense (or Interception) targets.
  • This reworked tile also features improved lighting and environment art. 
• Vendors with rotating or purchase limit wares have an updated “Wares Refresh In” description above the ware rotation timer.
  • Previously, the text would say “Time Left to Trade” for all Vendors with a timer, but that was leading to confusion that the store would expire instead. 
• Introduced a more aggressive Stuck Detection system in Defense, Netracell, and Survival missions to address cases of enemies "idling" outside of active gameplay areas.
• Added the ability to customize Reticule Enemy Highlight color via the Customize HUD Colors menu in the Accessibility Settings.
  • This allows players to change the tint of the reticule (the current default is red) when an enemy is within its sights.
• Added drag-to-swap and randomize functionality to individual tint channels in the Appearance tab in the Arsenal.
  • This functionality existed in other appearance screens, but now applies to Warframe and other equipment customization. 
• Garuda’s Talons Appearance changes:
  • Garuda TennoGen Skins can now be applied to her Prime Talons independent from the equipped skin. 
  • Selecting the “none” option will default her Talons to match the currently equipped skin. 
  • Also fixed Garuda’s Talons playing their open/close animation when customizing colors in Arsenal. 
• Captura QOL: 
  • Added a “Use original level Post FX” Toggle to Captura settings
    • Toggle on to enable the post VFX from the original gameplay tile instead of the Captura Scene.
  • Added “Spawn At Aim Point” toggle for spawning enemies in Captura. 
    •  Enemies will spawn in facing where your reticle is located. This is enabled by default but can be checked off in the spawn menu. 
• Removed the randomization on locked/unlocked doors in one the Corpus Outpost objective tiles (ex: Sao, Neptune). 
  • The route to enter this room was randomized based on what doors were open/closed, which also confused the waypoint system and thus the player on how to access it. 
• Warframes and Companions now will share full affinity for a kill if they dealt damage to the enemy shortly before it was killed by the other party.
  • i.e. if you dealt damage to a Corpus Crewman and then your Kavat killed him a moment later, you would both earn full affinity for that kill.
• Improve Gas City tile generation to prevent long tiles spawning ahead of the Defense target so players don’t have to run a long distance to get to the objective. 
• You can now sort by base Parazon mods in the Parazon upgrade screen. 
• You can now mute the music in the launcher from the speaker icon in the top right corner. 

 

ADDITIONS

• Added 50 new Höllvania-themed Dojo decorations! 
  • This is the final batch of the Höllvania decorations that were originally shown on Devstream 184. 
• Added new SFX when a player uses the context action to Stealth kill. 
• Added new Honoria for completing various activities, such as Eidolon Hunting, Conservation, Archimedea missions, and more.
• Added the new “Dream Catcher” Honoria for referring a friend, as part of our Refer a Friend refresh.
• Added new waypoint icons for those placed by Clanmates, Friends in your Clan, and Friends.
  
  Image Description: From left to right are three icons used to depict waypoints, the first being a shield with Clan Members written below. The second is a silhouette of a shield as a face and a person as the body with Clan Friends written below. The final icon is the silhouette of a person with Friends written below.
• Added the Yareli Prime Theme “Waverider” Somachord track to Varzia’s Wares for Aya. 
• Added the Strong United Emote – it changes based on the number of Clan members who use it together (max 4).
  • This emote alongside the Clan Glyph Prism will be delivered by Inbox Message to all existing Tenno in Clans and whenever a person joins a Clan.

CHANGES

• Updated the name of the “Pride” Color Palette to “Colors of Pride”. 
  • This palette was originally released for Pride back in 2021 that featured the rainbow stripes from the Pride flag. We then released the Pride Celebrations palette the following year with the addition of the Progress Flag colors. Since then we have not returned that original Pride palette until… today! It will be available shortly in the in-game Market for 1 Credit alongside the other Pride items for the remainder of Pride month. Don’t miss out on this stunning palette. Happy Pride, Tenno! 
• Updated the Stug to improve ease of use with the following changes:
  • Projectiles have improved stacking collision to make stacking easier.
  • Blobs which reach 10 stacks now immediately explode.
  • Improved the charge speed of the Alt Fire and increased the number of stacks shot at maximum charge (Now 10, from 6).
  • Updated the visuals of the projectiles and projectile explosions.
• Improved the appearance of the waterfall in The Awakening quest.
• “Choose Primary/Secondary/Melee” waypoints now disappear once players choose a weapon in the Awakening quest.
  • Previously they would disappear once players approached the weapon cache, meaning players may have been able to miss selecting a weapon. 
• Updated Quanta’s unique trait description to give specific stats on what it does.
  • Now reads: "Alternate Fire launches energy cubes that explode after 8 seconds, or when hitting enemies. Shoot a cube to cause chain detonation with x4 Damage Bonus and 6m Radius.”
• Sentient Summulyst now has animations for Mag’s Crush, Sleep and Electric Stuns. 
• Clan members and Friends’ Honoria will no longer appear in the Clan and Friends screens to prevent confusion.
  • Players can still see their Friend or Clan member’s equipped Honoria by hovering over their name. 
• Remastered the mission load-in SFX across various missions.
• Updated the description of Gear Embargo in Archimedea missions to better explain how it applies to specific gear with the change in Hotfix 42.0.11:
  • Now reads: “All gear restricted except for Archguns, Atomicycles and Necramechs” 
• Updated teeth material to avoid metallic and/or washed-out looking chompers.
• Changed the default text size from small to medium. 
  • Chat scale and text size can be adjusted to your liking from the Accessibility settings . 
• Made small adjustments to camera movement when mantling so you can see better.
• Updated the icon for Vauban Heirloom Sigil.

• The Gauss Moto Skin will now play the entirety of the Gauss Prime “Redline” theme while in Redline, and will start at different points in the song whenever the ability is activated.
• Removed the outdated “Inspect” feature from the leaderboards. You can still view player profiles in many other ways (chat list, friends list, recent players list, etc.).
• Moved the UI Cursor Sensitivity, UI Cursor Acceleration, and UI Cursor Magnetism settings from the Interface settings to the Controller settings as they are Controller-specific.  

 

VRAM Utilization Improvements

Historically Warframe was overly conservative with VRAM on Windows and would often leave multiple gigabytes unused on even mid-tier systems. Now, where possible, Warframe will take advantage of unused VRAM on Windows to improve the performance of texture and mesh streaming.

While there shouldn't be much of a difference on arrival, after exploring a mission you are likely to see an increase in VRAM usage (visible either in the in-game FPS display or through some external tool) and in return you might see less micro-stutters due to streaming. This change may also improve stability on older systems with less VRAM to begin with or systems being forced to share VRAM with another program left running.
