As previously discussed on Devstream 172, the intention behind this experiment is to offer players the option to pay-to-skip should they desire, while ensuring that the free acquisition path is not prohibitive for players. Only these 5 new items will be available for Platinum via this experiment, and will become available following the Weekly Reset on July 30th.

DUVIRI CHANGES:

Updated the Duviri Steel Path access message to properly indicate what nodes must be completed to access the Steel Path, as previously announced in this PSA.
Removed the Duviri Starting Path from the New Player Experience. Now, all new Tenno will start with the Vor’s Prize Quest, and the Duviri Paradox will be available to them after its completion.
After months of review of player behavior, we are making this change to give all new players an accurate representation of core Warframe gameplay before we introduce them to the magic of Duviri. Offering two Starting Paths for new players was an experiment — and not one we regret — but a key part of experimentation is continued iteration after the fact to ensure the best player experience possible. Tenno who already chose the Drifter Path should not be affected!
Removed a Dax Arcus spawn point in Castle Town that could bother players visiting Acrithis after the Orowrym fight.
Pathos Clamps, Kullervo’s Bane, and Steel Essence will now appear in the reward banner that appears at the top of the screen in Duviri instead of sliding in from the side.
Updated the waypoint marker functionality when retrieving the Orvius from the Rablit in the Orowyrm fight. Upon approaching the area where the Rablit spawns, a new waypoint will appear on the Rablit directly, telling you where to grab your Orvius from!
Added improvements to the area marker for the “Hidden Chest” objective to help guide players to the Chest. The area marker will shrink as time passes, and will disappear entirely once the Chest is found.
Improved the transition from Paragrimm back to Drifter after completing the “Recover the Paragrimm’s Tomes” Objective. Now, the screen will fade to black during the transition, and the Tome on the Paragrimm’s pedestal will no longer glow once the objective is completed.
Missed note: Removed Luscinia’s Opera singing in the Undercroft.
Due to the smaller tile, the singing was easily triggered a lot with players crossing paths with it often which created a lot of auditory noise.
Enable Hint Transmissions toggle in your Audio Settings will now also apply to non-critical game mode transmissions in the Undercroft. When toggled off, Teshin will wax a little less poetic about Void Angels and choose instead to watch your progress silently from afar.
The Duviri Shawzin screen will now auto-close after completing the song and earning the side objective reward. Re-entering the Shawzin screen after the initial completion will not automatically exit you out for any further songs you play.
This change was made to remove the awkward waiting period after finishing your song before you earned your Decree. Now it will automatically close once your Decree is earned, and you can simply interact with the Shawzin again if you wish to continue your jam session.

GENERAL CHANGES:

Modular Components that can earn Mastery will now show if that component is Mastered when viewed in a Vendor Menu (ex: viewing Zaw Strikes at Hok).
Reduced the intensity of camera static effect when using Security Cameras in Break Narmer missions. As per: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1359305-khal-sneaky-sabotage-bugs-wc-3-july-2023/?ct=1688389719
Improved the visibility of Cortege’s beam when using a black energy color with lower GPU Particle Quality settings.
Kullervo will now turn to face the direction of the reticle when casting Collective Curse while stationary.
Adjusted Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance teleport to accommodate for his melee attack movement, meaning players are less likely to slide right past enemies.
Improved the transition between the death and ragdoll animations to be more natural and smooth. Also improved enemies getting up and recovering from a ragdolled state.
Slightly smoothed and improved the Rifle aiming animation.
Player HUD and Chat scale values now change based on chosen video resolution if those settings are set to the default values, or if you are starting the game for the first time.
Increased the IPS (Impact, Puncture, Slash) Damage of the following Mods:
Rupture – Increased Impact Damage from 30% to 90%
Disruptor – Increased Impact Damage from 30% to 90%
Piercing Hit – Increased Puncture Damage from 30% to 90%
Flechette – Increased Puncture Damage from 30% to 90%

No Return – Increased Puncture Damage from 60% to 90%
Razor Shot – Increased Slash Damage from 60% to 90%
Updated the Incarnon Form transformation animations for the Dual Toxocyst.
Updated the Conservation animal map icons to match their respective Echo Lure colors.

What is Warframe ?

Warframe is an action role-playing third-person shooter multiplayer online game, developed and published by Digital Extremes, available as a free-to-play experience. It was first launched for Windows personal computers in March 2013, and later made available on various gaming platforms, including PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.

Cross-platform play was introduced in 2022, with plans for cross-save and mobile device ports in 2023. The game has a perpetual open beta status. In this game, players assume the roles of Tenno, an ancient warrior race awakened from suspended animation in Earth’s distant future. They find themselves engaged in conflict with different factions within the Origin System.

To complete missions, Tenno employ powerful Warframes, along with a diverse array of weapons and abilities. While many missions utilize procedurally-generated levels, the game also features expansive open-world areas akin to massively multiplayer online games, alongside story-driven missions with fixed level design.

Warframe blends elements of shooting, melee combat, parkour, and role-playing, allowing players to enhance their Tenno with improved gear. It encompasses both player versus environment and player versus player elements. The game supports microtransactions, enabling players to purchase in-game items using real money, while also providing the option to earn them through gameplay without additional cost.

The origins of Warframe can be traced back to 2000 when Digital Extremes commenced work on a project called Dark Sector. Originally intended to be developed in-house, Dark Sector faced delays and underwent significant changes before its release in 2008. In 2012, capitalizing on the growing popularity of free-to-play games, the developers utilized concepts and art assets from their earlier project, Dark Sector, and transformed them into the independently published Warframe.

Although initially met with moderate critical reviews and low player counts, Warframe has since experienced substantial growth and success. It stands as one of Digital Extremes’ most accomplished titles, boasting nearly 50 million registered players by 2019.

How to Obtain New Warframes in The Game?

To acquire new Warframes in Warframe, there are several civilized and formal methods available:

Crafting at the Foundry:

The primary and most common method involves constructing Warframes at the Foundry. To do so, you must obtain the blueprints for each Warframe component (Helmet, Chassis, Systems) as well as the main blueprint that combines them. These blueprints are obtainable as rewards from defeating bosses in the game.

Market Purchase:

Another option is to obtain Warframes fully assembled from the in-game Market using Platinum, the premium currency. This method allows you to bypass the crafting process and instantly acquire the desired Warframe.

Quest Rewards:

Certain Warframes can be obtained as rewards for completing specific quests in the game. These quests often feature unique storylines and provide the blueprints for the corresponding Warframes upon successful completion.

Prime Variants:

Enhanced versions of regular Warframes, known as Prime Warframes, offer additional benefits. To obtain Prime Warframes, players collect their respective Prime parts from Void Relics, which are acquired through Void Fissure missions.

Nightwave:

Nightwave, a seasonal event, offers various rewards, including Warframe blueprints. By completing Nightwave challenges and earning standing, players can obtain specific Warframes as rewards.

It is crucial to acknowledge that the availability and acquisition methods for particular Warframes may vary. Some Warframes may have different requirements or be exclusively obtainable during limited-time events. For more precise information on how to obtain each Warframe in the game, it is advisable to refer to reputable online resources, such as those mentioned in the search results.
