Warframe Update 2.11 Patch Notes from June 10, 2022

A new update has been released for Warframe Update 2.11. You can find out all the details of the Game Update, Bug Fixes, improvements, and Patch Notes below. The MLB The Warframe Update 2.11 Patch Notes are now available for download, for all platforms, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, and PC. The file size may vary depending on the platform.

Echoes of the Zariman: Update 31.6 is our last major update before TennoCon (July 16th, 2022)! This update includes new Zariman content and a plethora of quality of life changes that were heavily motivated by player feedback. This isn’t the first time we’ve used the “Echoes of X” as an update title – we did the same with “Echoes of War”, the succeeding update to The New War. Moving forward, we will be using this title prefix for these kinds of updates that are direct follow-ups to major content releases.

We encourage you to continue to use the spoiler-safe Angels of the Zariman sub-forum to discuss lore heavy topics. 

Update 31.6 includes code changes and fixes from PC Hotfix 31.5.4 and the new Update 31.6 content! The total download size is ~ 2.5 GB on PS4 and ~6.5 GB on PS5 (typical larger download due to system differences).
General console specific notes:

• Fixed inbox message not being sent for completing the Zariman Steel Path nodes.
  • As announced in our original PSA, we will be running a script on all console platforms to send the inbox message to all of those who have completed the Zariman Steel Path nodes but have yet to receive their inbox message. Date and time for the script will be shared sometime after 2 PM ET today. 
• Fixed being unable to choose the Transfererence option using the ‘Next/Previous Power’ and ‘Use Selected’ input bindings (left/right bumpers on controller).
• Fixed being unable to scroll while editing Stencils in the Customize Quarters console while using a controller.
• Fixed controller losing function after using d-pad to scroll to the bottom of the Options page.
• Fixed right input icon to tab through categories in the Inventory screen overlapping when using controller.

NEW CAVALERO OFFERINGS 

The following weapons, Arcanes, and special items have been added to Cavalero’s Offerings in the Chrysalith!
NEW INCARNON WEAPONS

Cavalero has dug up two new Incarnon weapons previously used for ceremonial purposes.

 

FELARX (Shotgun)

The Felarx invokes ancient times when aristocrats hunted game. For ceremonies, Orokin elites bred creatures reminiscent of game birds of old to reanimate cultural myths. The Orokin gave the Zariman crew Felarx and a brace of birds as a sign of acceptance into elite society. The brace of birds becomes a pair of powerful pistols at the hands of the Void.

INNODEM (Dagger) 

In the early Orokin Empire, elites wore Innodem as a symbolic reminder to defend the defenseless. The tradition fell out of style, but nostalgic elites acknowledged the sentiment in the form of a gift. The Void amplifies that ideal. Void energy strengthens Innodem gliding aerial attacks and the wielder is increasingly resilient as they perform finisher attacks in Incarnon Form.

Incarnon Weapon Changes & Fixes: 

• Updated the Incarnon Form charge gauge in the Incarnon weapon reticle to improve readability on when there is charge/when it is at full charge.
  
• The Phenmor can now equip owned Rifle skins!
  • The Laetum and the Praedos were released with this option enabled, it is now the Phenmor’s turn! 
• Updated Incarnon Weapon Evolution screen to include stat comparisons when selecting Evolution perks in Cavalero’s evolve screen. From the original known bugs list.
• Changed Laetum’s ‘Overwhelming Attrition’ Evolution duration from 20 to 10 seconds.
  • Overwhelming Attrition was simply too powerful to justify using the other two Tier 5 Evolutions for the Laetum. This change was made to encourage build diversity for the Laetum. 
• Made some slight adjustments to framing of Incarnon weapons in Cavalero’s Evolution screen.
• Updated Praedos transformation Sound with Void FX.
• Fixed cases where the Laetum and the Phenmor were not counting headshots for Incarnon Form charge.
• Fixed cases where the Laetum and the Phenmor were not counting headshots for Incarnon Form charge.
• Fixed the Laetum’s “Overwhelming Attrition” Evolution perk triggering much less frequently for Clients than for Hosts.
• If any projectile in the multishot group was a critical hit or status effect, the entire thing became invalid and would not get the buff for Clients.
• Fixed purchasing an Appearance Config Slot for the Phenmor prompting a confirmation for purchasing an Exilus Weapon Adapter for 20 Platinum instead of the 10 Platinum Appearance Config Slot as intended.
  • To recap, players who purchased the Slot were being prompted for an Exilus Weapon Adapter, and then charged for it when the player confirmed. The Adapter was then consumed to unlock the Appearance Config Slot.
  • For those who were affected up until this update, upon login you will be given an Exilus Weapon Adapter for every slot purchased for the Phenmor. Purchased Appearance Config Slots will remain unaffected, you keep what you purchased!
  • Due to some tech constraints, we weren’t able to run a script that would refund the Platinum difference while also distributing the consumed Adapter. If you would rather the 10 Platinum instead of the Adapters you may contact support.warframe.com with the subject line “Appearance Config Slot Inquiry for the Phenmor” or you can keep the “discounted” Exilus Weapon Adapter(s) (10 Platinum vs. 20).
• Fixed Clients gaining Incarnon Form charges added and then partially resetting and counting back up in high latency situations.
• Fixed the Laetum’s Evolution V ability “Devouring Attrition” not providing its 50% chance of receiving a 2000% damage buff on non-critical hits for Clients.
• Fixed Incarnon weapons using Skins in Incarnon form. From the original known bugs list.
• Fixed Laetum Reaper’s Plenty Evolution applying to all equipped weapons.
• Fixed cases of Evolution perks not working for Clients.
• Fixed the transformation timing on the Phenmor Evolution which cut off the sound FX.
• Fixed Incarnon Evolutions UI persisting in the Loadouts screen.
• Fixed the Praedos’ Evolution III challenge working on non-Thrax enemies.
• Fixed script error related to special Incarnon weapon reticle.
• Fixed a crazy muzzle flash FX on the Laetum.
• Fixed the Laetum’s Evolution V perk ‘Reaper’s Plenty’ applying its ammo efficiency to all equipped weapons, instead of just the Laetum as intended.

NEW ARCANES 

*All values below are shown at Rank 5. As always, values that were shown on Devstream #162 were subject to change and that is reflected below as further considerations and testing was done. 

Eternal Onslaught (Amps)
On Energy Depleted: +180% Critical Chance for 8s.

Eternal Logistics (Amps)
On Void Sling: +72% Amp Ammo Efficiency for 8s.

Molt Augmented (Warframe) 
On Kill: +0.24% Ability Strength. Stacks up to 250x.

Molt Reconstruct (Warframe) 
Heal yourself and allies within Affinity Range 6 Health for each point of Energy spent on the initial casting cost of abilities.

Cascadia Flare (Secondary) 
On Heat Status Effect: +12% Damage for 10s. Stacks up to 480%.

NEW AMP ARCANE ADAPTER

The Amp Arcane Adapter fuses with an Amp to unlock an additional Arcane Slot. These can be purchased with Holdfast Standing from Cavalero.

To install the Amp Arcane Adapter and unlock an additional Slot, go to your Operator Equipment > Select the Amp you wish to unlock an additional Slot > Select the ‘Locked’ slot and hit “ok” to install the Amp Arcane Adapter.

With the addition of several new Amp Arcanes with Angels of the Zariman and Echoes of the Zariman, this new Slot allows you to make the most of your growing Arcane collection!

This new Arcane slot is only visible in the Operator Equipment screen once the Angels of the Zariman quest has been completed since Cavalero must be visited in the Chrysalith to get the Amp Arcane Adapter.

NEW EPHEMERAS 

Cavalero has also updated his wares with new Ephemeras that are very inspired by Void Angel and Void Energy designs. Purchase the Blueprints for Standing and craft them to imbue yourself with the ethereal nature of the Void.

Raptwing Ephemera
Take on the majesty of an angel’s wings. Give yourself an extra set of helping hands with this Angel-inspired Ephemera. The Ephemera’s arms will move to mirror your original set of arms.

Seraphayre Ephemera
Walk in the echo of an ethereal song. Cloak your Warframe in Void Energy with this new Ephemera.

NEW: VOID’S SONG SHAWZIN

Kira played her shawzin to uplift the spirits of Zariman crewmembers. Her song and her memory live on in the Void.

This Shawzin has breathy airy tones, and can be purchased for Platinum via the in-game Market!

NEW: PARALLAX LANDING CRAFT 

A new Landing Craft has been added! The Parallax was designed for Zariman interplanetary research. It can deploy the advanced Orokin Eye Air Support*, which would have allowed colonizers to study areas rich in rare resources before landing. Ordis scans the area (within 150m) for rare items.

The Parallax can be purchased via the in-game Market for Platinum or players can craft it by purchasing its Blueprint for Credits and finding its component blueprints via the Reinforced Carrypods located in the Zariman.

The Parallax also has 4 skins available for purchase in the in-game Market! They can each be purchased separately or in the Parallax Landing Craft Collection.

*Players who own the Parallax can equip its Orokin Eye Air Support on their other Landing Crafts. 

OPERATOR CHANGES 

MULTIDIRECTIONAL VOID SLING

We have added multidirectional movement to Void Sling!

Before: Void Sling would only let you sling forward in the direction of the camera.

Now: Void Slings are all about player direction input, no longer dependent on the camera.

How to execute

To BACK SLING, tilt the left analog stick down and Void Sling (Tap X and Hold X) – observe the Operator slinging towards the camera instead of away. The back sling will always be backwards, regardless of camera angle.

To STRAFE,  tilt the left analog stick left or right and Void Sling – observe the Operator slinging in the direction they are running.

CAPSULE CHANGES

We made some improvements to the Operator projection positioning tech so that it produces a more accurate result of the final position where the Operator can pass through. This should help alleviate scenarios where the Operator could appear to Void Sling under a door but instead bonked their head. More work will be done to improve in other areas, notably issues with the Operator’s lower half colliding with the environment during Void Sling travel (we’ve got some broken ankles on the court).

Operator Cosmetic Fix & Additions 

You may recall on Devstream 162 we had an open conversation about a newly surfaced bug where you could change the Operators facial appearance with any color available within your Color Palette inventory. While this was not intended, the team has discussed how to develop it into an appropriate feature based on Community sentiment.

Introducing REFACIA KIT! Open up an enticing array of radical new artificial skin colors using Refacia. Includes imitation Orokin Blue!

Players with access to a Focus School’s Represent Store (unlocked by fully maxing all of the Nodes within a School) can purchase the Refacia Kit with Focus Points to add an additional 15 artificial skin colors.

We wanted to add an investment path towards earning the Refacia Kit for a couple key reasons: 1) prevent new player confusion who have yet to reach that level of lore within Warframe, and 2) having a cosmetic to strive for in the later game.

We understand that the artificial colors given are on the subdued side compared to the Infested Palette hot pink and neon green. Our desire is to take the enjoyed bug and turn it into a lore-driven feature that fits within the ecosystem of Warframe for all to enjoy!

General Operator/Focus Changes & Fixes:

• Added Operator Stats to the Operator Customization screen.
  
• Updated the Anti-Warframe field (Exolizers in Void Cascade and Kuva Trokarian’s Anti-Warframe Grenades) to no longer nullify Warframe abilities on forced Transference. As mentioned in the Hotfix 31.5.10 notes.
• Updated the FX on Zenurik’s Temporal Drag.
• Changed Temporal Drag and Temporal Shot so that only one damage number pops up when headshotting a slowed enemy.
  • The reason behind this change simply is less damage number pop-up spam and consistency with other damage buffs across the game. Precision headshot damage buffs, for example, buff the damage on headshots but only display the one aggregated damage number per shot. Before this change, headshotting enemies affected by Temporal Drag would show two damage numbers, one for the base damage and one for the bonus. Now it will behave exactly like normal precision headshot buffs, only it will be conditional on the target enemy being slowed by the Temporal Drag ability. 
• Temporal Shot’s bonus headshot damage on targets can now be affected by another player’s Temporal Drag.
• Fixed certain Operator Hairstyles appearing with black dots.
• Updated Operator Amp animations to be one handed when shooting and aiming.
• Clarified ‘Void Regen’s’ description that it applies to squad members not just Operators.
• Clarified ‘Void Regen’s’ description that it applies to squad members not just Operators.
• Slightly reduced Caustic Strike’s opacity FX from enemies that enter the bubble.
• Note on Transference cooldown progress: We mentioned during Devstream #162 that the slight Transference cooldown is not intended. And that continues to be the case – but the changes are not situated well enough yet to release as it involves careful consideration around server tech that we have to be delicate around. Work continues for a future release!
• Fixed Temporal Drag not using chosen Energy colors.
• Fixed an unintended extra cooldown going from Operator to Warframe and back, caused by the ‘Opening Slam’ Focus node.
• Fixed an incorrect sound being played when Transferring from Warframe to Operator.
• Fixed an unintended extra cooldown going from Operator to Warframe and back, caused by the ‘Opening Slam’ Focus node.
• Fixed Magnetic Flare lasting 30 seconds across all Ranks instead of scaling with level as intended.
• Fixed Unairu Wisp only being spawned if the target is vulnerable to Caustic Strike.
  • The wisp will spawn even if the target cannot have their armor removed by Caustic Strike. 
• Fixed being able to clip into walls in certain tilesets using Transference.
• Fixed being able to clip through closed doors in the Dormizone using Transference.
• Fixed bug where getting grabbed by Ropalolyst when in Last Gasp, or entering Last Gasp while in Ropalolyst grab, would cause players to be invulnerable and unable to use Transference.
• Fixed being unable to use the Melee button to Transference back into Warframe if the ‘Use Abilities on Selection’ option is disabled.
  • This ultimately fixes being unable to use Naramon’s ‘Opening Slam’ and ‘Killer Rush’. 
  • This also fixes being unable to do Mercy finishers on enemies when triggered as Operator. 
• Fixed being unable to swap Focus schools in the Simulacrum as Client.
• Fixed rare Crash occurring from using Temporal Drag.
• Fixed an issue where toggling Void mode while your spectral form is traveling would disable knockdown invulnerability and damage reduction.
• Fixed Health not returning to normal amounts after Transference Static wears off.
• Fixed Warframe animations appearing while customizing the Operator.
• Fixed issue of Amp customization only affecting Operator appearance.
• Fixed Voidshell materials not applying to both versions of the Voidshell suit when customizing in the Arsenal.
• Fixed crash when attempting to copy Operator suit colors to Sirocco.
• Fixed error upon opening the Amp customization screen.
• Fixed the description for the Zariman Sleeves on the Operator outfit.
• Fixed spoiler character using weapon animations while in the Dormizone.
• Fixed the spoiler character’s waistband appearing underneath them.
• Fixed wonky arm animations while hip firing as Operator.
• Fixed bug where “player was revived” message would show in the HUD when a player with a pet equipped activated Last Gasp. Also fixed “Player is down” message also showing when being forced back to downed Warframe.
• Fixed Transferencing in and out of the Operator on the Orbiter removing the player’s ability to open the pause menu.
• Fixed script error when using Transference while being Switch Teleported by a Kuva Lich.
• Fixed script error related to Unairu Wisp.
• Fixed Guardian Shell intercepting some player attacks, instead of solely intercepting enemy attacks as intended.
  • For example, using weapons like Ferrox or Mausolon was impacting the shield and causing detonation visuals and sometimes staggering or knocking you down. 
  • This also fixes heat trace weapons (eg. Ignis, Klamora Prism Amp, etc.) and beam weapons being visually reflected by Guardian Shell. 

EXIMUS CHANGES 

• Modified Overguard ratios to bring Eximus Units Overguard down and slightly increase their Health/Shields to balance out the reduction.
  • Reduced Eximus Overguard by 50% and transferred the 50% to their Health pool.
    • While this may read as a big increase to the Health pool, it is not a 1-to-1 trade due to the overall pool sizes of Overguard vs Health. Imagine you have a watermelon (Overguard) and half an orange (Health). I take away half a watermelon and I give you half an orange – and together we eat a fruit salad. For clarity: Overguard has a larger pool than Health, so reducing it by half still amounts to less HP across Eximus Units across all HP values. By increasing the amount of Health and Shields an Eximus Unit has, it also increases the window for successful Mercy kills. 
  • Increased Shield Scaling multiplier by 50%
• Nox Eximus Helmets can now be destroyed when Overguard is active. Breaking their helmet will remove Overguard entirely!
  • Note that Nox Damage resistance has been decreased and armor increased to balance this change. This change applies to both Nox Eximus and base Nox enemies. 
• Fixed Overguard counting as Health and taking damage from Viral Status Effect.
  • Overguard situates itself in a new category of “protection”. It differs from Shields, Armor, and Health. That said, Viral Status Effects affecting Overguard was unintentional and has been changed to not only fit the original design for Viral damage, but also Overguard. 
    • We originally mentioned in the Eximus Reborn Dev Workshop that the only Status Effect that would work on Eximus while Overguard is present is Cold Status Effects (up to 4 stacks!).
• Blitz Eximus damage is now more consistent:
  • Now will only take 1 instance of damage per wave. Previously you could get knocked back into more explosions to take multiple subsequent hits.
• Lifesteal now works on damage dealt to Overguard.
  • Considering Overguard is another health pool for an Eximus/Thrax and that Lifesteal already works on Health and Shields, Overguard is now susceptible to Lifesteal to give players another way to tactically engage with them. The fights with Eximus can be quite challenging, so having another avenue of survivability is always encouraged! 
    • This change was also made in mind to Lifesteal survivability builds, it would be too difficult to lose all of your survivability when encountering many enemies with Overguard at one time (from either Void Armageddon or an Ancient Healer etc.) 
    • Additionally, there are some Weapons and abilities that aren’t strictly classified as Lifesteal that won’t currently work, but will in a future update! This currently affects specific conditions for the:
      • Hema
      • Hirudo 
      • Garuda’s Blending Talons augment
      • Gauss’ Kinetic Plating 
      • Protea’s Temporal Anchor 
      • Zephyr’s Target Fixation augment
    • If there are any other cases where Lifesteal isn’t applying from Overguard, please let us know on the Forums and we will take a look!
• Eximus units no longer spawn at a higher level than the mission level.
  • Eximus spawning at increasingly higher levels felt unnecessary with the introduction of Overguard.
• Killed Eximus units now drop a guaranteed Energy Orb and 2 Health Orbs.
  • There is a known bug that this currently doesn’t apply to the Eximus units found in Onslaught game types
• Friendly Energy Leech Eximus now provides a small amount of Energy regeneration (3/s for 3s) to players within 25m when they hit enemies. Time to dust off those Roller Specters, Tenno!
• Orokin Drone Eximus units can now only spawn as either Energy Leech or Health Leech.
  • The drones are unable to animate the other Eximus functions, which was making it difficult/impossible to telegraph their attacks. This change also adds proper Eximus ability functionality to the drones.
• Fixed Arson Eximus blast attacks not hitting through Limbo’s Rift.
• Fixed Baruuk being unable to damage Eximus units with his Serene Storm waves.
• Fixed the Arctic Eximus name and description not localizing properly.

ZARIMAN MISSION CHANGES

NEW: Chrysalith Bounty Fast Travel Portal

To ease the flow from Quinn to the Chrysalith elevator and vice versa, we have added portals!

Before: You would either have to run back and forth between the two or use a complex combination of Fast Travel menu hopping (Pause > Fast Travel > Quinn > Pause > Fast Travel > Zariman Navigation). This would interrupt gameplay flow when wanting to play back to back Bounties.

Now: A portal will spawn after selecting a Bounty at Quinn, walking into it will take you to the elevator where you can load into the mission. After completing the Bounty, a portal will be available for you to use upon exiting the elevator that will take you right back to Quinn to select your next Bounty.

NEW: Lohk Surges 

A new dynamic gameplay element has been added to Zariman missions: Lohk Surges! They’re intended to be an overall benefit to your mission, but come with a bit of risk should you choose to engage with them.

Three Lohk Surges spawn throughout the tileset for players to find – each with their randomized buff to activate! Upon finding it, the icon will reveal the buff it offers. Whenever you trigger it, it will spawn an Eximus that you have to defeat.

There are 7 possible temporary 45 second buffs that apply to both Warframe and Operator (buffs persist between Transference):

• Secondaries have guaranteed red crits.
• Any Health Orbs picked up grant 25 max Health for the rest of the mission.
• Any Energy Orbs picked up grant 1 Energy per second for the rest of the mission.
• 1% life leech on all your damage and guaranteed bleed procs.
• No Energy cost on abilities and increase casting speed.
• 200% extra Affinity gain.
• Infinite ammo and 50% fire rate (affects Amps as well!).

There is a 10-minute cooldown for Lohk Surges after activating the buff, but once that’s finished you can go back and activate another Lohk Surge.

Lohk Surge challenges have also been added to the Zariman Bounties!

Void Cascade Mission Changes: 

• In-Mission Tutorial Screen: We have added a new tutorial screen in the Void Cascade mission! To access it, simply open the main menu and select the “i” icon in the bottom right corner. This is the first tutorial setup of its kind, and we will be slowly considering more tutorials of this nature based on the feedback we receive.
  
  
• Moved Mission progress tracker above the Threat meter.
• Added tracker for successful rounds to Mission UI.
  
• Reduced the amount of different Threat states to 4. The Threat states are now:
  • THREAT: MINIMAL
  • THREAT: MENACING
  • THREAT: SEVERE
  • THREAT: CRITICAL CASCADE
• Increased the transition time between threat states so that you can spend more time in the last one before transitioning.
  • This now triggers a final state that has a 5 minute timer before extraction.
• Added message for when Thrax are corrupting an Exolizer.
• Added mid-mission icons to the first set of Void rifts encountered during the Void Cascade mission in the Angels of the Zariman Quest.
• Tweaked timing of transmissions during Void Cascade missions.
• Fixed the final State (CRITICAL CASCADE) immediately triggering, now you can exist in the final threat state before it ends.

Thrax Enemy Changes: 

• Reduced the Energy drain from Magnetic procs from 50 to 20 per tick.
  • This not only applies to Thrax enemies, but to Magnetic damage across the game (laser doors, magnetic water in the Plains of Eidolon, etc.)! A default Magnetic proc used to drain 250 Energy, now it will do 100.
• Overguard resistance/base amount will now show up on Thrax enemies in the Codex.
• Adjusted Thrax enemy spawns in Mobile Defense to scale based on the size of the squad:
  • Solo: 2 Thrax spawns per Console
  • 2 Player squad: 3 Thrax spawns per Console
  • 3+ Player squad: 4 Thrax spawns per Console
    • For any Tenno not playing in a full squad, we found the Thrax spawns in Mobile Defense were far too difficult to manage either solo or with fewer Tenno. We’ve since scaled the spawns to compensate!
• Fixed an issue with the Thrax Legatus’ beam damage tick rate being doubled.
  • If you were standing in its beam attack, the damage you receive would be astronomical, even at lower levels (Level 10 Legatus enemies could down a full health Valkyr in one beam attack). What was happening is that the Legatus would be dealing multiple instances of damage instead of constant single tick. This has now been resolved, so there should be no one hit wonders.
• Fixed Thrax Legatus enemies being able to inflict Magnetic Status procs on Warframes with a Rank 5 Arcane Nullifier equipped (102% chance to resist Magnetic Status Effects entirely).
• Fixed crash related to Thrax Centurions.
• Fixed broken enemy behavior when Thrax enemies are disarmed by abilities, which also led them to run around with just a Sheev (fear the butter knife).
• They will now take damage (and be knocked down if Overguard is depleted) when disarmed.

NEW: Trade Resources for Voidplumes 

Voidplumes can now be earned from Archimedean Yonta by trading in resources found throughout the Zariman! Voidplumes rotate every 8 hours, a Time Left to Trade timer is available to indicate the next upcoming rotation.

General Zariman Mission Changes & Fixes: 

• Added individual extraction to endless Zariman missions (Void Cascade, Void Flood, and Void Armageddon).
  • In order to solo extract from endless Zariman missions, simply head to the elevator and hold to extract at the panel. Traditionally, in other endless missions you could solo extract by waiting out the timer at the extraction point, but doing that here will only extract once all team members have joined you in the elevator. We may explore this option for Zariman missions, but for now manual solo extraction is available!
• Added a 5th Tier Bounty category to the Zariman Bounties!
  • This also means that all Mission types will be available at one time via Bounties in the Chrysalith.
  • The Hespar and Aeolak Blueprints have also been split into separate Bounties, meaning these two rare rewards are now housed in their own independent Bounty table, instead of having both of them in one.
  • The Voidplume Quill amount for completing Bounty challenges has been increased by 1 for all Tier 3 and higher Bounties.
• Voidplume pickups will now count towards the Syndicate Medallion Riven challenge.
• Kuva Trokarian enemies are receiving some changes to make them feel like more of a threat when they appear in-mission.
  • Similar to their Thrax compatriots, these foes are intended to add an extra level of difficulty to the player’s gameplay loop, so these tweaks are made with that goal in mind.
    • Added Overguard to the Kuva Trokarian (but at a lesser value than the Eximus Overguard)
    • Increased their Void Damage slightly.
    • Increased Armor from 250 to 300.
    • Increased base Health from 450 to 500.
    • Increased Affinity earned from killing a Kuva Trokarian from 500 to 750.
• Added input callouts for the fast select turret options in Void Armageddon missions.
• Added the Steel Path mission toggle to the Zariman Navigation located in the Chrysalith.
  • In premade squads, the Steel Path toggle is determined by the Host (even if Clients do not have it toggled on, joining a Host who does will default everyone to Steel Path).
• Added Chrysalith and Orbiter options when attempting to leave Zariman missions from the pause menu.
• Added Chrysalith and Orbiter options when attempting to leave the Dormizone from the pause menu.
• The Mission Select screen accessed in the Chrysalith will now mark which missions you have not completed as “Unexplored”.
• Extraction is no longer forced after completing all Bounty objectives in Void Flood missions, the mission can continue indefinitely if players decide to stay.
• Improved the spawning consistency of large Vitoplast orbs in relation to their distance from Void Ruptures.
• Made several minor changes to the audio volume in the Void Armageddon (Oro Works) mission.
• Updated the audio for the Exodampers in Void Armageddon.
• Updated the Seesaw physics in the Zariman for all of our Seesaw purists out there.
• Turned up the Zarium Accolade sound FX slightly and increased its radius.
• Fixed mission information missing “Zariman” in the brackets during the Angels of the Zariman quest missions.
• Fixed an issue where doors in the Zariman would not render, making it impossible to progress through the mission. From the original known bugs list.
• Fixed glass material flickering if there is active VFX behind it (notably with the yellow Exolizer bubble in Void Cascade missions).
• Fixed a small issue with the Armament turrets ambient VFX in Void Armageddon missions.
• Fixed certain Warframes (notably while using Yareli’s Merulina and Sevagoth’s Exalted Shadow) losing functionality and getting stuck in t-pose after entering the Void Cascade Exolizer anti-Warframe bubbles.
• Fixed a missing water teleport volume in the Zariman Exterminate mission.
• Fixed being able to escape Void Angel ground spikes by transferring back to Warframe immediately after being impaled as Client.
  • This also fixes remaining in the impaled pose animation wherever transference occurred. 
• Fixed pause menu lingering on-screen if a player is impaled by a Void Angel with it open.
• Fixed a black panel with invisible collision in the Zariman tileset.
• Fixed a crash related to Host migration while loading in through the Chrysalith elevator.
• Fixed Zariman Bounties not being listed in the Codex as a drop source for Relics.
• Fixed players being unable to matchmake to Steel Path Zariman nodes while in the Chrysalith mission select screen. As previously mentioned in the Hotfix 31.5.9 patch notes.
• Fixed issues being caused by Vacuum picking up Argozene when the squad is already at maximum carry amount in Void Armageddon missions.
• Fixed Clients crashing when attempting to load into an active Bounty stage if the Host aborted the mission after that stage or started a new Bounty.
• Fixed Void Angel’s ground spikes sometimes overshooting the target when they’re moving slow.
• Fixed Void Angels becoming invisible for Clients while going into their down state while also teleporting.
• Fixed Void Angels teleporting into the ground.
• Fixed Void Angels not appearing in their downed state to players who join in-progress missions.
• Fixed unintentended tentacle-like VFX when deploying the armaments in Void Armageddon missions.
• Fixed an issue with display distance calculations being inconsistent for Melica Cache minimap markers.
• Fixed Clients being unable to see progress UI on turrets or crates in Void Armageddon.
• Fixed black screen experienced when fast traveling to the Zariman navigation in the Chrysalith and immediately trying to load into an Exterminate mission.
• Fixed Voidplumes not being grouped together in the End of Mission screen.
• Fixed Zariman Bounty challenges resetting on fail after they’ve already been completed.
• Fixed script error when attempting to /join a squad in a Zariman mission.
• Fixed waypoint showing up for Clients to get to the Chrysalith elevator after selecting a Bounty.
• Fixed the Grustrag Three breaking extraction in the elevator if they invade during Zariman missions.
• Fixed certain loot markers in the Zariman not updating their position when you’re in minimap range of the destination, which was causing confusion as the markers would suddenly appear behind you.
• Fixed being able to remove the Zariman Bounty objective mid-mission and still receive the Bounty completion reward regardless.
• Fixed being unable to load into a Bounty using the Chrysalith elevator after aborting a mission using the panel in the elevator.
• Fixed more issues related to the Void Angels impale ability across Hosts and Clients in a squad.
• Fixed the Void Angel Bounty challenge remaining incomplete after completing successfully.
• Fixed Zariman Bounties with objective timers resetting after the Host leaves and causing a Host migration.
• Fixed Vitoplast VFX expanding outside of the Drone after Host migration in Void Flood mission.
• Fixed Vitoplast VFX flashing for Clients after Host migrates in Void Flood mission.
• Fixed migrating immediately upon the first Fracture causing the second fissure to appear prematurely in Void Flood missions.
• Fixed Skittergirl’s pathing being broken while traversing over very obvious jumpable bridges in the Zariman.
• Fixed being able to leave the Zarium Accolade in the Elevator, allowing you to take it with you back to the Chrysalith.
• Fixed Zariman Bounty description using plural text when only singular was needed.
• Fixed issue of Turret lifespan UI flashing briefly for Clients in Void Armageddon.
• Fixed the Chrysalith node not being marked as Complete at the conclusion of the Angels of the Zariman quest.
  • This essentially fixes not being able to select the Zariman’s missions on the Steel Path mode from Navigation.
• Fixed Zariman Bounties rewards not appearing in the public drop tables.
• Fixed marker lingering for Clients after killing Void Manifestation.
• Fixed a single Mobile Defense Zariman Bounty mission counting as multiple for the Nightwave ‘Protector’ Act challenge.

NEW: Open Landscape Fast Travel – Blinkpads!

You can now fast travel in Open Landscapes (Plains of Eidolon, Orb Vallis, and Cambion Drift) using Blinkpads! Blinkpads can also be interacted with while in Archwing, but upon arrival you will be returned to foot so that you can choose your next mode of transportation.

Players can teleport to other Blinkpads by interacting with ones they come across within the Landscape, or by selecting the Blinkpad they wish to travel to from their Advanced Map (accessed by holding their bound Show Level Map key).

ARCANE STAT CHANGES PER RANK

We’ve adjusted the values of older Arcanes with the goal of making lower rank Arcanes more viable, and more desirable while collecting as a result. In short, there are three stats that each Arcane tends to have (speaking generally) — for example, a percentage chance, a stat buff, and the duration of the buff.

Certain Arcanes increase all of these stats per rank (making them scale exponentially), but we are changing it so that only one stat is affected by rank (making it scale linearly). The other stats will now be at the max-rank value regardless of the Arcane Rank, thereby buffing lower-rank Arcanes as a result.

For example, using Arcane Fury.

• Previous:
  • The unranked values were as follows: “On Critical Hit: 10% chance for +30% Melee Damage to Melee Weapons for 3s”
  • The max rank values were as follows: “On Critical Hit: 60% chance for +180% Melee Damage to Melee Weapons for 18s”
• New:
  • With these changes, the unranked values are as follows: “On Critical Hit: 60% chance for +30% Melee Damage to Melee Weapons for 18s”
  • With these changes, the max rank values remain the same as before: “On Critical Hit: 60% chance for +180% Melee Damage to Melee Weapons for 18s”

This change mostly affects older Arcanes that don’t already fit this new formula (with the exception of Arcane Barrier*), as the majority of newer Arcanes already follow this system. The Arcanes listed below are formatted to showcase which stats have been changed from scaling to constant (with the old “Unranked” value in brackets), and which stats will still increase with rank, using the # / # format. For the sake of clarity, we are only sharing unranked and max rank stat values, not the incremental value changes for ranks between them.

*Arcane Barrier is the one true exception to the Arcane changes below, since it has two scaling stats, but one of those stats actually becomes worse with rank. Rank 3-4 for example increases the cooldown from 4s to 5s. So if we were to change it to have constant cooldown like the others, we would be increasing the cooldown duration for the lower ranks – which is something we want to avoid! Any other possible changes might have to alter how the Arcane works overall, so we ultimately decided to leave it untouched.

OPERATOR ARCANES

Emergence Dissipate
WHILE IN VOID SLING: Press the weapon firing input to dissipate the endpoint in a 10m (was 7.5m) radius. Enemies hit have a 100% (was 50%) chance to create a short lived Void Mote that replenishes 5/10 energy on pick up.

• We have also made the following changes to Emergence Dissipate:
  • Void Motes are no longer affected by ‘vortex’ abilities like Void Snare.
  • Added a 1.5 second delay between generating Void Mote from the same enemy.
    • Emergence Dissipate was conceptualized as a weaker alternative to Zenurik’s energy gain, but ended up being even stronger than the Energy-focused school in certain cases, going against the Focus rework goals of each school having a unique niche. The above changes also seek to maintain the original goals we had with Void Sling; to encourage a more controlled behavior instead of a spam-centric loop. The slight cooldown motivates more mindful gameplay, but with the benefit of the stat buffs it has received for lower levels.
• Now that the chance is guaranteed, the new description is “WHILE IN VOID SLING: Press [fire input] to dissipate the endpoint in a 10m radius. Enemies hit create a short lived Void Mote that replenishes 5/10 energy on pick up.

Lighting Changes: 

We have made the following changes to lighting to improve how it interacts with details in open landscapes!

• Separated sky lighting from the rest in lightmaps, resulting in improved lighting quality because samples coming from opposite directions will no longer cancel each other out.
  • Lighting at night will now pop much more! Prior to this change, everything would be tinted in dark blue. Now, each lighting source will have much more vibrance in contrast to the dark backdrop of night.
  • Lighting during the day will now have a lot more textural details especially when viewing things at distance. Prior to this change, details would tend to get lost at a distance and resemble more clay-like, without any grit or grain to it.
• Added sun bounce to the enhanced graphics engine.
• Enhanced graphics engine also offers more detail at a distance (this is the default setting on PS5).

You may also notice in the above image that we have also made foliage blend improvements.

Enemy Grappling Hook Rework: 

Scorpions, Ancients, and Tusk Predators have had their grappling hook mechanic reworked! An age-old enemy mechanic from the early beginnings of Warframe, they’ve been grappling Tenno left and right for years – it’s time to break free! Since its introduction, the grappling hook attack has consistently knocked players down or dragged them around, providing no opening for combative counterplay.

NOW Scorpion, Ancient, and Tusk Predator grappling hooks will tether to you, followed by a slight delay (1 second) before they attempt to slowly pull you in. Tenno who are agile enough can now Melee attack in the direction of the rope to destroy it and stagger the enemy. Additionally, Bullet Jumping or dodging during the pulling animation can cause a stagger to the enemy.

*Isolator Bursas have not received the cut mechanic since the mechanic works a bit differently for these enemies.

GENERAL CHANGES:

• Made the following changes to the Grendel Locator missions:
  • Lowered the Enemy level in the Grendel Locator Missions from 40-45 to 25-30.
    • This change was made thanks to Community feedback on the difficulty of the Eximus units in the Grendel missions after their rework, but it was also decided to lower the enemy levels overall as these missions were deemed too difficult. 
  • Reduced the length of the Grendel Chassis Locator Defense mission from 15 waves to 10 waves. As reported here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Warframe/comments/uigpd9/grendel_missions_impossible_now_with_eximus_rework/i7fk209/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&co
    • The changes to Eximus units in the Angels of the Zariman update made this particular mission much longer compared to the rest because you are required to clear all the Eximus at the end of every wave. Even with the changes we’ve made to Overguard in this update, we have reduced the waves to compensate for the added difficulty/time we found Eximus units continued to bring to the mission. 
  • Syndicate Death Squads will no longer spawn in the Grendel Locator missions.
• Garuda’s Dread Mirror now blocks all radial damage in front of it and grants stagger/knockdown immunity.
• Changed the reticle of several weapons with a charge mechanic to no longer use energy colors for their charge indicators.
  • While it’s desirable to have the reticle of these weapons take on the energy color, it sacrifices too much clarity for the weapon charge indicator.
    • This applies to:
    • Laetum transmutation gauge
    • Phenmor transmutation gauge
    • Morgha charge reticle
    • Cortege charge reticle
    • Sepulcrum charge reticle
    • Trumna charge reticle
