Warframe Update 35 Patch Notes

Warframe has been receiving a new update named Patch 35, which focuses on many changes. The update offers a new hero alongside numerous improvements and bug fixes. Let’s review the Warframe 35 update patch notes.

Warframe Update 35 Patch Notes

UPDATE 35: WHISPERS IN THE WALLS 

The mysteries left behind by the brilliant Albrecht Entrati and the unknowable Man in the Wall have begun to unravel. Welcome to Whispers in the Walls: the next major chapter of Warframe’s sprawling cinematic story! 

New or rejoining? Welcome all!

If you are NEW to Warframe, you have joined at an exciting point in the game’s story and development! To prepare for the journey ahead of you to reach the Whispers in the Walls content, read our New Player Guide.

If you are RETURNING to Warframe, welcome back! Get caught up on the latest content with our Returning Player Guide.

SPOILER WARNING: If you are in need of a refresher on the Warframe story so far, you can take a peek into the [REDACTED] files found on a particular machine located in the new Sanctum Anatomica hub on Deimos after you have completed the Whispers in the Walls Quest.


Whispers in the Walls is a Mainline Update!
Meaning that everything the team has been working on since the launch of Abyss of Dagath 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 Whispers in the Walls 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. 

Update Download Sizes: 

• PlayStation 4: 3.54 GB
• PlayStation 5: 8.77 GB (typical larger download due to system differences)

PlayStation Specific Notes: 

New fog system on PlayStation 5: With this update, we have updated our fog system in Warframe on PS5! Instead of the previous raymarch system that depended on lighting from the sun and other various baked-in light sources, the new system is lit in real time. Meaning that fog now has a much more realistic appearance based on the environment that it is in. 

Keyboard & Mouse Support on PlayStation: Warframe now officially supports keyboard and mouse (KBM) on PlayStation! 

• You can customize your KBM bindings in settings while they are plugged into your PlayStation.  
• Several elements of the game are now interactable with KBD, including Menu buttons, Hacking, Shawzin playing, etc.  
• Note: Even while using KBM, PlayStation controller binding icons will remain in the UI. This is intentional.

CROSS PLATFORM SAVE ROLLOUT (BEGINS DEC 14TH)

STARTING DECEMBER 14TH, we will begin the rollout of Cross Platform Save across all available Platforms! 

Cross Platform Save is an upcoming optional feature that allows you to Merge or Link your accounts to unify Warframe progress across all platforms. This allows you to use a single Warframe account across any Linked or Merged platforms (with some restrictions outlined in this FAQ).

To ensure success and stability during the launch of this highly requested feature, Cross Platform Save will be made available in staggered phases.

You can check if your Account is included in the latest phase and is ready for Cross Platform Save by going to the Account Management page on www.warframe.com.

If you do not qualify for the active phase, please wait for our announcement that the next phase is live before checking again. We appreciate your patience while we roll out these features — our intention is to have Cross Platform Save in everyone’s hands in 2023.

We are excited to reach this milestone in Warframe with the arrival of Cross Platform Save allowing Tenno to access their account on any Platform they choose. We will of course monitor and respond to any issues during the rollout phases. If you would like to report an issue or share feedback, please use our dedicated Cross Platform Save sub-forums.

For errors encountered during Cross Platform Save account setup, please contact Warframe Support www.support.warframe.com.

Thank you for your cooperation and feedback while we ensure the landmark new feature is working for all Tenno!

For all the details on the Cross Platform Save rollout, including an extended FAQ, please visit:https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1374265-cross-platform-save-rollout-information/?do=embed

CROSS PLATFORM TRADING & GIFTING

Tenno can now trade with players on different platforms (depending on those players’ Cross Platform settings). Trading will function the same as gifting, except for trading Platinum between Nintendo Switch and other platforms, which is not available. 

To trade with friends or fellow Tenno across platforms, make sure you are using a Cross Platform Save Account (or PC account*) and have Cross Platform Play enabled via your in-game settings. TennoGuard 2FA is required to trade in-game items with fellow Tenno in Warframe, which can be enabled via the Account Management page.

*PC accounts can automatically trade with players on other platforms — provided that both players still have Cross Platform Play enabled in their settings and that any non-PC player trading with them has a Cross Platform Save Account (more information on this in the link below).

NEW CINEMATIC QUEST: WHISPERS IN THE WALLS

Deep within the Necralisk, a dormant precept known as The Kalymos Sequence has been activated. You must return to Deimos and investigate Albrecht’s hidden, subterranean Laboratories for any clues he may have left behind.

Whatever he was working on, you will quickly discover that his Laboratories are the source of many unknowns… 

The Whispers in the Walls Quest acts as an introduction into Warframe’s next major chapter. As with all research, discoveries often lead to more questions… 

Note to Content Creators: Content creators are able to broadcast and/or publish VODs of their Whispers in the Walls Quest experience without DMCA concerns. This does not include edited video content outside of the context of your gameplay stream which includes licensed music from the Quest.

Quest Prerequisites
You must have the following Quests completed to access the Whispers in the Walls Quest:

• Heart of Deimos
• The New War

Note: We have removed Mastery Rank requirements from all main story Quests (which includes those listed above) to allow players to enjoy story content without the delays that Mastery Rank gain and tests would cause (more information on that covered below in the New Player Path Improvements section below). 

Quest Rewards

• Blueprint for the New Warframe Qorvex 
• New Secondary Weapon: Grimoire 
  • Max Ranked and includes a Weapon Slot and pre-installed Orokin Catalyst.
• Melee Upgrade Segment (more information in the New Heavy Melee Attack System: Tennokai section) 
• Mentor’s Legacy Mod (more information in the New Heavy Melee Attack System: Tennokai section) 
• Melee Arcane Adapter (more information in the New Heavy Melee Attack System: Tennokai section) 
• Access to the Cavia Syndicate in the new Sanctum Anatomica hub on Deimos
• Access to new Deimos nodes and mission types

COMING SOON – OPERATION: GARGOYLE’S CRY (BEGINS DEC 18TH!) 

The Murmur encroaches on our systems, Tenno. The Whispers beyond the Wall are a new threat; we must ensure they stay confined to Albrecht’s Laboratories 

Operation: Gargoyle’s Cry is a time-limited event, launching on December 18th @ 11 AM ET on all platforms! 

REQUIREMENTS AND HOW TO PREPARE

1. Complete the Whispers in the Walls Quest 

If you are new to Warframe and have not completed the Heart of Deimos and The New War Quests to be able to play the Whispers in the Walls Quest, we have made it much easier in this update to catch up! More information on that in the New Player Path Improvements section below. 

2. Be a part of a Clan and own a Clan Key 

If you aren’t already in a Clan, you can either join or create one! 

How to Join a Clan: 

• You can either search for a Clan OR a friend can send an invite to join theirs. To search for a Clan, follow these steps:  
• Pause Menu > Communication > Clan > Select the “Search for a Clan” option.
• From there you can choose from the available options (Tier, language, activity level, etc.) to search for your ideal Clan.
• Select the Clan that appeals most to you to send in a request to join, from there the Clan can accept your request if you also meet their requirements. 

How to Form a Clan:

• Pause Menu > Communication > Clan > Select the “Form a Clan” option. 
• Enter the name of your Clan 
• Congrats you are now the Founding Warlord of your very own Clan! 

In both scenarios, a Clan Key is required for the Operation as you will need access to your Clan’s Dojo. Upon joining/creating a Clan, the blueprint will be added to your Foundry for you to craft it. 

3. Ensure a Clan Member has the Architect or Dojo Decorator Role

Placing a Decoration in your Clan Dojo is a key component to participating in the Operation. In order to do so, you’ll need an active Clan member with the Architect or Dojo Decorator Role! A Clan’s Founding Warlord, Warlord, General, Officer, and Sage all have this role by default. 

NEW TILESET: ALBRECHT’S LABORATORIES

Impressive though they may appear, the Laboratories are not without dangers of their own. You’ll find the gilded alcoves patrolled by abandoned Necramechs faithfully defending their departed master’s secretive research.

These majestic halls constitute a brand-new Warframe tileset, expanding outwards directly from the tunnels beneath the Necralisk. Gilded rooms filled with instruments are not all that can be found below… A haunting but familiar presence also lingers within the labyrinth. Weaved in with Albrecht’s place of research are vast bleak spaces where an unending storm rages on, a clear demonstration of The Man in the Walls’ influence. 

NEW ENEMY FACTION: THE MURMUR 
Known by many names, The Murmur are the hands (and feet, and eyes, and… you get the idea) of The Indifference. They are attempting to break through Albrecht’s Laboratories into the Origin System – something Tenno will need to stop at all costs.

*The image above shows The Anatomizer in the foreground and The Hollow Vein in the background. 

The Fragmented 
On the rare occasions when Murmur fragments assemble themselves into a whole, the result is a monstrous and potent entity. It may manifest in three different forms, the Suzerain, Zelator and Anchorite, with a fourth form, The Fragmented One, being the most formidable of all. Together, as heralds of the Indifference, they tether down the Strands of Khra which their bizarre master must travel. To learn more about where and how you will encounter The Fragmented, read the Assassination: The Fragmented section. 

The Severed Warden
Brutally cut from the Indifference in order to protect the greater whole, its three hands bestow the Void’s twisted blessing upon its allies, so long as they remain attached.

The Anatomizer
A vortex of clinical destruction, it hurls explosive charges, intent upon dismembering opponents as it was itself dismembered. 

The Hollow Vein
Albrecht Entrati was unsure whether this awkward composite was the result of the Indifference’s incomplete understanding of human anatomy, or an attempt at creative rearrangement thereof.

Shuffling Fragment
In its calcified chaos, the Indifference is disjointed even from itself. 

Lumbering Fragment
These sundered limbs have only partly fused. Lumbering, mindless horror is the result.

Hurling Fragment
Clings to the cliffs and walls, hurling masonry on anything unfortunate enough to be traveling below. 

Rupturing Fragment 
This lumbering fragment, unconcerned with self-preservation, is liable to rupture violently when in proximity to its target. 

*The image above shows the Rogue Arcocanid. 

ROGUE NECRAMECH ENEMIES
Originally designed to defend Albrecht’s Laboratories from outsiders, these Necramechs have gone rogue and will attempt to destroy any interlopers who cross their path. 

Rogue Culverin
An experimental Necramech, optimized for ranged combat, built for Albrecht Entrati by his son-in-law. It now fights alongside the very Murmur foes it was meant to repel.

Rogue Arcocanid
An experimental melee Necramech, a variant on the Tombjockey class, built for Albrecht Entrati by his son-in-law. It now fights alongside the very Murmur foes it was meant to repel.

Rogue Voidrig 
A robust, if primitive, war-engine initially developed by Albrecht Entrati’s son-in-law to fight in the Old War and now repurposed as a laboratory guardian. Confused as to who its true master is, it now sides with the Murmur, contradicting its original precepts.
 

TILESET GAMEPLAY FEATURES 
The Laboratories are brimming with instruments and research technologies that can be used to your advantage!

Summon Personal Necramech
Colorless antiques pepper the Laboratories and contain archaic hacking technology. Convince the system to let you in by matching the corresponding icons to the sequence. 

Inserting the incorrect sequence (red icons) will increase corruption levels, which risks failing the hacking attempt. Correctly matching the sequence will reward you by delivering your personal Necramech and your Squad’s to nearby dispensers. Once a terminal has been used, it is disabled for the rest of the mission and the ability to summon a Necramech is put on cooldown. Seek out new terminals once the cooldown has expired to once again dispatch your Necramech! 

Vitriol Phials
As one might expect, the Laboratories contain a multitude of health and safety hazards beyond the enemies that patrol the halls. Most notable being the Vitriol Phials – destroying them releases their Corrosive contents which can aid against foes but watch your step! Vitriol does not distinguish friend and foe. 

Lohk Surges 
Lohk Surges are inescapable reminders that the Void has leaked into the Laboratories… Interact with them to provide you and your squad a buff. Be wary that doing so will spawn a foe! 

TILESET COLLECTIBLES
There is much to discover in the Laboratories. If you can brave the dangers within, your searches within its long and winding corridors will prove fruitful. 

Codex Fragments: Albrecht’s Notes
Much has unfolded within the confines of Albrecht’s Laboratories and he made sure to document the events of his research in great detail. These notes are bound tightly within his Grimoire, which can materialize in the Laboratories, but be forewarned… unbinding it and looking into Albrecht’s lost notes summons something that cannot be easily banished. If you are successful in eliminating it, a note from Albrecht’s Grimoire may be left behind in its stead.

Voca
Physical manifestations of Voidtongue cries, moans, and whispers. There are three kinds of Voca: Shrill Voca, Bellow Voca, and Echo Voca. 

They are sought after by the Cavia and are used in the following ways:

• Turn in for Cavia Standing in the Sanctum Anatomica hub on Deimos 
• Exchange for Wares in the the Sanctum Anatomica hub on Deimos 
• Used to craft Qorvex, Ekhein, and more 

Voca can be earned as rewards in Cavia Bounty drop tables and can be found throughout Albrecht’s Laboratories similarly to Syndicate Medallions (squad-wide pickups!). Each mission spawns 8 Voca for you to seek out. They emit a distinct sound when you are near them, so keep your eyes and ears open as you explore every nook and cranny. 

NEW RESOURCES
The following resources can be found by exploring Albrecht’s Laboratories, killing enemies within them, and completing the new Deimos missions. 

Entrati Obols
During the Orokin era, these obols were a commonly recognized mark of the Entrati family. Some Archimedeans even used them as good luck talismans.

Necracoil
This experimental array transmutes Void energy into high voltages with low currents.

Stela
This Void-touched stone contains an ominous essence. Stela is specifically used in Coalescent Fusion – read the Archon Shard Expansion: Coalescent Fusion section to learn more! 

Look out for a unique resource cache and destroy it to wrest the Stela from its grip. Stela can also be obtained by collecting Vosphene Glyphs in Mirror Defense on Munio, Deimos, completing Sanctum Anatomica Bounties, and defeating enemies in Albrecht’s Laboratories. 
 

DEIMOS EXPANSION: NEW NODES & MISSION TYPES

Completing the Whispers in the Walls Quest unveils five new nodes on Deimos to continue your excursions throughout Albrecht’s Laboratories. One of these new nodes feature a brand new mission type called Alchemy and four feature existing mission types (Assassination, Mirror Defense, Survival, and Exterminate) with an Entrati twist. All of these nodes are also available on The Steel Path! 

There is also a special weekly mission type called Netracell that is exclusively accessed in the Sanctum Anatomica hub on Deimos. Read on to learn more! 

NETRACELLS (WEEKLY)

The Netracells are secured by hazardous Keyglyphs found only in the Anchorhold. They contain highly sought after valuables and can only be opened by using the correct Keyglyph. The Keyglyphs were designed by Albrecht Entrati to open his secretive Netracells. Each one imposes a heavy burden on its carrier. An added security measure to give the lab’s defenses an advantage, should a Keyglyph fall into unknown hands.

*Image above shows the Anchorhold. 

Note On Difficulty: 
This game mode is intended to be very challenging, and specifically tuned for full squads. Be sure to prepare accordingly! The following restrictions apply to all Netracell missions: 

• Empowered Enemies: Enemy Health and Shields increased by 100% and an additional 50% for each squad member, stacking to a maximum of 300%. There is also an increased chance of Eximus. 
• Respawns: No self revive, Last Gasp penalty (activating Lasp Gasp reduces the timer by 2 seconds), and the bleedout timer shortens after each revive (to a minimum of 5 seconds). 
• Consumables: Summons are disabled for the entire duration of the mission and each type of Restore (all sizes) has a 3 minute cooldown timer applied.

How To Access:
A specific member of the Cavia Syndicate in the Sanctum Anatomica knows how to enter the Anchorhold. Visit them and select the “Enter the Anchorhold” option to begin the hunt for a Netracell. 

A maximum of 5 Netracells can be found and unlocked per week for rewards (resets every Monday at 0:00 UTC). You can still play the mission after you have completed the weekly allowance, you just won’t receive any rewards for doing so until the next weekly reset. 

How To Play: 
Upon entering the Anchorhold you and your squad will be required to select and carry the four randomized Keyglyphs presented. Each impose their own debilitating burden onto their bearer. 

There is no limit to how many Keyglyphs one person can shoulder – coordinate with your squad who will carry which type (and how many) before beginning the search.

Exit the Anchorhold by hacking the terminal located at the bottom of the stairs and begin your search for the Netracell. Terminals are located and marked on the map to help narrow down the search radius, should you require aid. Upon finding the Netracell, the security level needs to be reduced by eliminating the enemy threat before gaining access to open it up. After successfully doing so, the player with the required Keyglyph will need to interact with the console to unlock its doors. 

Collect your hard earned rewards in the Netracell and make your way to Extraction. 

Rewards
Notable rewards for opening a Netracell include:

• Melee Arcanes (more information in the New Melee Arcanes section)
• Melee Arcane Adapter (more information in the Melee Upgrade Segment section)
• Archon Shards (base and Tauforged)
  • Note: Only Crimson, Azure, and Amber Shards are rewarded from Netracells. The new Archon Shard types (Violet, Topaz, and Emerald) created via Coalescent Fusion can only be obtained via the Fusion process at Helminth (learn more in the Archon Shard Expansion: Coalescent Fusion section) 
• Guaranteed: Entrati Lanthorn

Visit the official drop tables for specifics. 

ALCHEMY (ENDLESS) 

Alchemic devices in Albrecht’s Laboratories known as Crucibles allow elemental powers to be wielded and fused into complex forces. The Cavia are is requesting your assistance to ensure they remain operative for a greater goal. 

How To Access: 
Select the Cambire node (normal and Steel Path) on Deimos from the Star Chart or from the Laboratory Navigation in the Sanctum Anatomica. 

How To Play:
Crucibles within the Laboratories are capable of mixing complex elements, provided you can supply the elemental forces required. Killed enemies drop Amphors full of Heat, Cold, Toxin, or Electricity. Throw Amphors into the Crucibles to mix the requested complex element to 100%. They can also be lobbed at enemies as concentrated elemental grenades!

Once you have filled it with the required elements, the Crucible will begin its mixing process and a random Crucible Overflow buff will be applied to the squad for the duration of the mix. Ensure the stability of this high powered mixing process by breaking distressed pipes to drop the pressure if it gets too high. 

Rewards
Notable rewards for successfully completing a Crucible include: 

• New Tennokai Mods (more information in the New Heavy Attack System: Tennokai section) 
• Mandonel Components 

Visit the official drop tables for specifics. 

ASSASSINATION: THE FRAGMENTED

Ready to go toe-to-toe with something that almost certainly has way more toes than you do? Seek out and destroy The Fragmented, a nightmarish assembly of Murmur fragments. 

How To Access: 
Select the Effervo node (default and Steel Path) on Deimos from the Star Chart or from the Laboratory Navigation in the Sanctum Anatomica. 

How To Play:
Seek out an Atropos Probe and inject its serum into a Vitreum to begin scanning. Defend the Vitreum while it scans for Murmur’s Eyes. Prevent the scan from being interrupted by keeping the search radius around the Vitreum clear of enemies. Once Murmur’s Eyes have been exposed, they will become visible to you for a limited amount of time. Collect them quickly before they fade from view. 

Atropos Probes power the Vitreums for a limited amount of time, so once it has been depleted, new Probes and Vitreums must be found to continue the process. Collecting the required amount of Murmur’s Eyes will pinpoint The Fragmented’s location. Upon arrival, you will face off against one of the three variants (Suzerain, Zelator, or Anchorite). Dispatching it will reward you!

Rewards
Notable rewards for successfully defeating The Fragmented include:

• New Mods (more information in the New Mods section below):
  • Ready Steel

How To Access: 
Select the Munio node (default and Steel Path) on Deimos from the Star Chart or from the Laboratory Navigation in the Sanctum Anatomica. 

How To Play:
Protect the Vitreum and the Auricle as the enemies alternate their attacks between the two. A rotation is complete once both have been defended. 

Vosphene Glyphs are the key to triggering the Laboratories’ automated security system. Gathering the required amount will bolster the active defense target by surrounding it with offensive turrets. Doing so will also reward 3x Stela (5x on Steel Path).

NEW WARFRAME: QORVEX 

Albrecht Entrati designed Qorvex to protect a Chosen Operator from the unique hazards of his lab. A Crucible Core gives Qorvex high survivability as he provides crowd control.

How to Acquire Qorvex: 
Qorvex’s Blueprint and Component Blueprints are rewarded from Cavia Bounties. They can also be acquired from the Wares & Shiny Treasures Vendor in the Sanctum Anatomica for Standing. The Qorvex Collection can also be purchased from the in-game Market for Platinum. 

Passive: Core Exposure
Weapons wielded by Qorvex have an additional +3 Punch Through. 

Chyrinka Pillar*
Summon a Chyrinka Pillar that slows enemies. It pulses Radiation Damage with a guaranteed Status Effect.

*This is Qorvex’s Helminth and Railjack ability. 

Containment Wall
Contain the threat. Qorvex summons walls that slam together, damaging all enemies caught between them and inflicting Radiation Status.

Disometric Guard
Guard yourself and nearby allies against Status Effects. Each time Qorvex kills or assists in killing an enemy affected by Radiation Status, the number of Status Effects Disometric Guard can prevent increases.

Crucible Blast
Release a beam from Qorvex’s Crucible Core. Each enemy struck suffers Radiation Damage with a guaranteed Status Effect. Enemies that were already affected by Radiation Status explode in a chain reaction.

Maximum Loadout Slot Increase:
With the release of Qorvex and the Initiate Power Pack (due to the inclusion of fully built Warframes), the maximum number of purchasable Loadout Slots has been increased from 22 to 24. 

NEW ARCHGUN: MANDONEL

Mandonel fires Radiation Damage projectiles. Partially charged shots release a spread and fully charged shots release a beam that dissolves into a radiation field. Projectiles that pass through the field are empowered. 

Mandonel’s beams charge Qorvex’s Chyrinka Pillars. Fully charged shots dissolve into a radiation field. Projectiles that pass through the field gain 2x Damage, 2x Status Chance, +10% Critical Chance, +50% Critical Damage, +2 Bounce, +1m Punch Through, and increased Projectile Speed. 

How to Acquire Mandonel: 
Its Blueprint is rewarded in the Cavia Bounties and its Components are found in the drop tables for the new Endless Mission Nodes on Deimos (Persto, Munio, and Cambire). It can also be purchased fully built via the in-game Market for Platinum (also comes pre-equipped with a Gravimag!).

ARCHON SHARD EXPANSION: COALESCENT FUSION

Archon Shard technology has been extensively researched in the Albrecht’s Laboratories and has led to the advancement in their capabilities! The process of Coalescent Fusion allows for two Archon Shards to be fused together to create a single Shard that offers a set of new embed bonuses.

Coalescent Fusion Requirements: 

• Helminth Archon Shard Segment: The Blueprint is earned for completing the Veilbreaker Quest. 
• Archon Shards: More than one of various types (base or Tauforged). 
• New Helminth Coalescent Segment: The Blueprint is earned from the Wares & Shiny Treasures vendor in the Sanctum Anatomica.
• Stela: New resource earned from Albrecht’s Laboratories. 

How to unlock Coalescent Fusion: 
The Helminth Coalescent Segment Blueprint can be acquired from the Wares & Shiny Treasures vendor in the Sanctum Anatomica after reaching the Researcher tier with the Cavia Syndicate. Once you have built and claimed it from your Foundry, return to the Helminth Room in your Orbiter to install it.

How to use Coalescent Fusion: 

Step 1. After installing the Segment, interact with the Helminth chair and select the “Archon Shards” button. 

Step 2. Select the new Coalescent Fusion icon located on the right of the Archon Shard embed UI.

Step 3. Hover over one of the two slots on screen to select the Archon Shard types you’d like to fuse together. Once both slots are filled, the Shard they will fuse to create will appear in the center. Hover over this Shard to preview the stats and bonuses it offers. 

• Base Archon Shards can only be fused with other base Shards. Likewise, Tauforged Shards can only be fused with Tauforged Shards to create a Tauforged variant.
• To remove an Archon Shard, simply select it again. 

Step 4. Select the “Fuse” button to complete the process. 

• Fusion Requirement: 50x Stela for each Fuse. 

You’ve now successfully created a new Fused Archon Shard that can be embedded into your Warframes!

Archon Shard Fusion Types
There are 3 total combinations possible when fusing the different Archon Shards: Violet, Topaz, and Emerald. Each fused Shard has their own set of embed bonuses to choose from:

Violet Archon Shard (Crimson + Azure) 

• Gain +10% (Tauforged: +15%) Ability Damage on enemies affected by Electricity Status. 
• Gain +30% (Tauforged: +45%) Primary Electricity Damage. Gain an additional +10% (Tauforged: +15%) per Crimson, Azure, or Violet Archon Shard equipped.

General Archon Shard Changes: 

• Each Archon Shard type now has its own icon associated with it to help identify them when making selections (primarily for our colorblind Tenno out there!). 
  
• Reduced Archon Shard removal cost from 50% to 30% Bile. 
• Updated the confirmation pop-up when removing an Archon Shard to specify the exact conditions of its removal:
  • Was: “Are you sure you want to remove the Embedded Archon Shard from this slot? Shard will be refunded and Helminth materials will be consumed.”
  • Now: “Are you sure you want to remove the Embedded Archon Shard from this slot?
    (Shard Name) will be refunded and 30% Bile will be consumed.”
• Hovering over Archon Shards in the embed slots at Helminth will now show their embed bonuses!
  

ARCANE DISSOLUTION

The Albrecht Laboratory is equipped with devices that can dissolve Arcanes into Vosfor, a potent powder for alchemical processes. It is used to trade for Arcane packs from a vendor in the Sanctum Anatomica! 

The goal of Arcane Dissolution is to provide an alternative way for players to access and acquire the wide range of Arcanes found throughout Warframe. 

HOW TO PERFORM ARCANE DISSOLUTION

Step 1: Speak with a vendor in the Sanctum Anatomica and select the “Arcane Dissolution” option to get started. 

Step 2: Select the “Dissolve Arcanes” button 

Step 3: Select the Arcanes you’d like to dissolve. 

• The amount of Vosfor obtained per Arcane is determined by a variety of factors, including its rarity and rank. 
• Note: The list includes Arcanes that are currently equipped –  a warning message will pop-up to inform you if the selected Arcane is equipped. 

Step 4: Once you have chosen the Arcanes you’d like to Dissolve, hit the “Dissolve” button. 

Step 5: Return to the Arcane Dissolution menu to exchange the earned Vosfor for a variety of Arcane packs.  

ARCANE PACKS
The following Arcane Packs can be acquired from a vendor in the Sanctum Anatomica for Vosfor. Each pack is themed based on where their containing Arcanes are acquired. 

Purchasing a pack will randomly reward 3 unranked Arcanes from their list. The possibility of a certain Arcane being selected is based on its rarity and respective drop rates through gameplay means. We want to maintain the integrity of its original acquisition methods in this new alternate way to access them. 

Expand the spoilers to view the full list of Arcanes per pack!

NEW HEAVY ATTACK SYSTEM: TENNOKAI

With the launch of Auto Melee in Abyss of Dagath, we mentioned that we were working on a “Perfect Heavy Attack” system for Whispers in the Walls, and it is officially here! 

Recall the ancient art of Tennokai with new Tennokai Mods for your Melee Weapons. Tennokai is a long-lost melee art form, allowing Tenno to make the most out of their Heavy Attacks. With Tennokai enabled on your Melee weapon, you will have a 15% chance for a symbol to appear while performing a melee attack. If you perform a Heavy Attack while the symbol is active on your reticle, it will trigger a Tennokai Heavy Attack, which has a faster wind-up speed and does not consume any combo counter. 

With this new
