The last Hotfix unintentionally changed this week’s Deep Archimedea missions, modifiers, deviations and risk variables, so we’ve reverted it back to its previous state. It will properly refresh as scheduled on Monday at 0:00 UTC. You will not lose any Research Points in the revert. 

Fixes: 

  • More fixes towards Conduits in Armatus Disruption missions having glowing blue orbs. 


For full visibility on our Hotfix plans for next week, please see our PSA here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1392156-dante-unbound-our-plans-for-next-week-3555

Dante Changes & Fixes 

Tragedy Line of Sight (LoS) Changes & Fixes: 
As a result of yesterday’s Hotfix and the understandable feedback we’re receiving, we wanted to address the clearly broken state of Dante’s Tragedy LoS checks. It was not implemented to our standards, and that is on us. We know that this has been an unpopular change, which was greatly aggravated by the fact that a) it launched in a defective state and b) that LoS checks in general suffer from broad inconsistencies. 

Our first step is improving how LoS checks work with Tragedy to fix the inconsistencies and ineffectiveness. We’ll use our learnings from this incident to review other cases of LoS check issues for a future update.  

  • Improved Tragedy’s Line of Sight checks per enemy to be much more forgiving and reliable to fix the many cases players reported of not being able to hit enemies at all. Now, it considers not only the enemies that Dante sees but also those visible on screen/via the camera...

Changes: 

  • Updated the Onos and Ruvox Blueprint description to indicate that they also drop in the Armatus Disruption mission on Deimos.
  • Improved teleport volumes in the Albrecht’s Laboratories tileset to prevent issues with players getting spawned in weird spots. 

Fixes:

    • Normal: 2-4 Vessel Capillaries (only 2-3 were being rewarded before this fix). 
    • Steel Path: 5-7 Vessel Capillaries (only 5-6 were being rewarded before this fix).
  • Fixed the TennoCon 2024 Display (from the TennoCon 2024 Digital Pack) having the wrong dimensions, causing it to appear stretched.

Whispers in the Walls: Update 35.1: Hotfix #2

Changes: 

  • Tusk Dargyns will no longer spawn in the Plains of Eidolon during Saya’s Vigil Quest. 
    • Killing these airborne enemies can be a challenge for new players, so we have removed them as they could prevent players from progressing through the Quest. 
  • Players with Overguard are now immune to the slow effect from enemy Necramech’s Necraweb ability. 
  • Slightly turned down the Grimoire’s projectile firing and impact sounds. 
  • Tweaked Konzu’s transmission timing when completing Eidolon Hunt Bounties. 

Cross Platform Save Change:

  • Changed how the Synkra Syandana is delivered based on Cross Platform Save linking status: 
    • Prior to this Hotfix, the Syandana was exclusively rewarded for including an email address in the Console “Account” tab in Settings. Now, once a player has linked a Console account, they will automatically receive the Synkra Syandana instead of going t...

Hello Tenno!

On Devstream #177, we outlined our upcoming changes to Mirage’s Eclipse. In making the ability a toggle (Tap or Hold) we also changed the buffs to be an additive bonus (similar to Chroma’s Vex Armor) instead of a final multiplicative. To elaborate further with some maths, we changed it from 200% final multiplicative to 350% stack multiplicative.

After reviewing Community feedback and discussing it internally, we are reverting the latter change. Eclipse will remain a 200% final multiplicative for Mirage, and the Helminth Subsume version will be multiplicative and match the exact number for Roar, which is 30%. Please note that it won't be the exact same upgrade as Roar, the differences between the abilities will remain.

Subject to change as we continue playing around with it, but we wanted to provide an update as we continue development and read feedback.

Thank you!

Hi Tenno!

Thank you for all your feedback and suggestions on this topic.
Based on your feedback, we have decided to turn Eclipse into a Tap/Hold ability:
  • (TAP) Temporarily reduce the damage Mirage takes from enemies.
  • (HOLD) Temporarily increase Mirage's weapon damage.

It will no longer rely on the light level you are standing in. We talked about this a bit more in Devstream #177, which you can find here (timestamped):

Hi Tenno!

With the introduction of Cross-Platform Save, we wanted to give the Warframe Forums a bit of a refresh! We made changes (and will be making a few more soon) with the intent to make it easier for DEvelopers to find feedback and Tenno to find the Forum they’re looking for. You may notice a few Forums moved around, changes to available tags depending on the forum, and moving towards Cross-Platform Forums rather than Platform segmented ones.

Thank you for leaving feedback and chatter for us on the Forums, we hope these changes make time spent here even better!

Hello, Tenno!

In the past we have seen requests that we provide a list of software which we do and do not allow to run in conjunction with Warframe. While it is understood that some software is good and others are inherently bad or designed to assist in cheating, there are some cases where software may fall into a gray area.

The reason for this post is to have an updated reference about our policy on external, third-party software - along with the potential pitfalls of suching such software in conjunction with Warframe.

The simple, golden rule is this:
If you use external software in conjunction with Warframe, you do so at your own risk.

While we could technically issue blanket bans on everything which alters the game files, the fact is some software is helpful and useful for members of our community. This is where context is very important. The difficulty here is that it is incredibly difficult for players to prove they are not using a program nefariously, and ...

Hi Tenno!

At Digital Extremes, we take your account security very seriously.

Here are some things to remember for keeping your account secure:

  • Digital Extremes will never send you an email from a public email domain (such as Gmail or Hotmail). If you receive an email claiming to be from Digital Extremes, make sure the sending address is either @warframe.com, @digitalextremes.com, or @digitalextremes.zendesk.com (this is Support’s email domain). Do not click on links in false emails, as they can lead to bad software or password stealing ‘spoof’ sites.
  • You should enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) on your Warframe account! You can find instructions for enabling 2FA on our 2FA frequently asked questions page.

As a general rule of security, you should always use robust, unique passwords. We cannot recommend any specific programs or password managers, but we highly suggest you research reputable programs and use them to protect yourself - not just in Wa...

Hello Tenno!

As you may have seen in Devstream #176, we are looking at ways to change Mirage’s Eclipse ability (and related Helminth ability). To briefly recap the Devstream, we see consistent functionality issues with Eclipse in various in-game environments, as well as situations where Eclipse is unreliable.

First, Eclipse does not function correctly in every area of the game. In Open Zone content, it always acts as though it is in maximum light, even when it is nighttime. In Albrecht’s Laboratories, it always acts as though it is night, preventing Tenno from using the light portion of the ability. Here's what that looks like in practice:


Eclipse in Open World - Always Light

Eclipse in Albrecht's Laboratories - Always Dark

Second, Eclipse’s reliability is due to the boost being reliant on the area’s lighting, which means taking a step to the side could cut Eclipse’s boost in half. This can make it difficult to properly utilize shadow’s damage reduction. Here's an example of what we're talking about - even a few steps may switch Eclips...

Changes: 

  • Continued updates to the sounds in the Awakening Quest’s Warframe select screen. 

Cross Platform Save Fixes: 

  • Fixed case where a merged account could be a member in two different Clans. 
    • This was caused by merging a Console account in a Clan with a PC account that has a pending Clan request that was accepted after the merging. Affected accounts have been returned to the Clan they were in on their Console account prior to the merge. 

Fixes:

NSW Whispers in the Walls: Hotfix #7

Hello Tenno and Happy New Year! This Hotfix includes back-end fixes and improvements towards Cross Platform Save that are needed before we re-open the gates again this January. Dates to come - stay tuned! 

Today’s Hotfix also includes some fixes for Switch (listed below) that required us to send to Cert (Warframe Lexicon for Updates). What this means is that this Hotfix will appear and download as an Update would and will have a slightly larger download size compared to a typical Hotfix would be (~882 MB). 

Nintendo Switch Specific Notes: 

  • Fixed a crash caused by Grimoire’s Alt Fire projectile. 
    • In Hotfix #4, we changed the projectile to no longer chain Electricity damage to prevent the frequent crashing issues Nintendo Switch users were experiencing. With this fix we have returned Grimoire’s Alt Fire projectile to its intended design!
  • Re-enabled the “Web Authentication” button on Nintendo Switch!

Nintendo Switch Specific Notes: 

  • Changed the Grimoire’s Alt Fire projectile to prevent frequent crashing for our Nintendo Switch Users. This is a temporary change until the Code fix can be shipped in our next Cert build.
    • This alt fire projectile no longer applies chaining electricity damage, which greatly reduces the overall damage output of this weapon. While this functionality has changed, the explosion still functions with Tome Mods. We understand that this is not an ideal situation, but due to the prevalence of the crashing, this temporary workaround was needed until the permanent fix comes in our next Cert build. Rest assured, we’ll be reverting this change once that build ships!
