Howzit, Glinty!

It is time again for us to go dark on Hotfixes/Updates as we prepare for the next Warframe Update: Lua’s Prey!

With the exception of Nintendo Switch, which has already been on a Hotfix hiatus since Tuesday. Switch will be Hotfixing next week to catch up with the rest of the platforms, and then they too will enter Hotfix/Update dormancy in prep for Lua’s Prey.

During this time, the team will continue to monitor the public build for fixes/changes to include in Lua’s Prey.

That said! We are planning and looking forward to connecting with you all in a November Devstream to get you all caught up on Lua’s Prey and more - stay tuned for the official date announcement! In the meantime, here are some of the things coming with Lua’s Prey:

• The 51st Wolf-Inspired Warframe: VORUNA
  • Signature Axe Melee and Sniper Rifle
  • Voidshell Skin
  • Alt Helmet
  • Ephemera
  • Leverian Installation (lore for Voruna!)
• 2 new Conjunction Survival Nodes on Lua!
• Nightwave: Nora’s Mix Vol. 3
  • Learn more here
• Xaku Deluxe and Lotus Skin
• Grendel Rework
• Yareli Changes
• Grendel, Mag, and Frost Voidshell Skins
• And more!

Also worth noting is that Lua’s Prey will be a Mainline Update, meaning that everything the team has been working on since the launch of Veilbreaker will be coming in this update (with the obvious exception of content that is not ready to be released), including all Code changes & fixes. It is very likely, as it is with all Mainline updates, that things can slip through the cracks. We will have a dedicated subforum for bug reporting when Lua’s Prey launches, and will be keeping an eye out for those for follow-up Hotfixing.

Thank you!

Break Narmer Mission Changes & Fixes:

• Fixed Caches for the “Unlock Cache with Passwords” Challenge in the Prison Break mission not spawning enough to complete the challenge.

  • Also fixed a script error related to the above.

• Fixed extremely rare issue where end of mission results would not update at the end of Break Narmer missions.

• Fixed Grineer Drahks teleporting to player location if they do not despawn after being freed in the Junk Run mission.

• Fixed script error caused by the “Unlock Cache with Passwords” Challenge not being active while loading into the Prison Break mission.

Changes:

• The Vericres is now tradeable!

• Chipper in Archon Hunt missions will now teleport to players if he can’t reach them.

• Removed Helios Prime's Mastery Rank 8 requirement.

  • A follow up to Hotfix 32.0.9, Helios Prime was the only Sentinel with a Mastery Rank requirement, so we removed it to make it consistent with the rest.

• Increased the Ignis Wraith’s Blueprint replication price from 15k to 20k Credits.

  • Recently the Ignis Wraith Blueprint was made accessible to all clans. This included making the Blueprint sellable for the price it was sold at, so stockpilers could regain the credits they spent. With matching buy and sell prices, some players were moving large quantities of blueprints for net zero gain, which caused unexpected problems.

• Made several loading screen tip updates to get them up to date. Also added new Focus related tips.

PC/Xbox Cross Platform Play Changes & Fixes:

• Changed the generic icon for Cross Platform Play from the silhouette to a new swirl icon that will be used to identify Cross Platform Play in Warframe.

• Fixed in-mission Operator transmissions showing the platform icon suffix after alias.

Fixes:

• Fixed the following Crimson Archon Shard upgrades applying to all weapons instead of the intended listed Primary or Secondary weapons:

  • +25% (+37.5%) Primary Status Chance

  • +25% (+37.5%) Secondary Critical Chance

• Fixed Chipper randomly standing up after being downed in Archon Hunt missions.

• Fixed Corrupted Vor sinking into the floor in mission and in the Codex.

• Fixed offset issues with the Circadian, Harkonar, Iliac, Kuva Braid, Kyroptera (default, Ormolu, Panoply), Laddak, Maggor, Vanquished Banner (default and Day of the Dead), Quaro, Rakta, Salix (default and Solstice), Suparna, Thorac, Yomo, Amphor, Apoxys, Dessicata, Flox, Harkonar, Kuva Cloak, Mucusk, Sordario Syandanas when equipped on the Nightwave Drifter Suit.

• Fixed offset issues with the Broca, Centuria, Dominus, Kahtuss Prime, Kryoptera Syandanas when equipped on the TennoCon 2022 Drifter Suit.

• Fixed offset issues with most Syandanas when equipped on the Drifter Grineer Suit.

• Fixed instances where NPC Defense targets were being called “Hostage” instead of “Operative” when downed (including Chipper in Archon Hunts).

• Fixed end of mission transmission issues in Sorties.

• Fixed the Avex Sniper used to enter the Ven’kra Tel fight arena appearing in the Veilbreaker Quest.

• Fixed script error related to Zariman Bounties.

Hey Dreamers,

Our current Nightwave act, Nightwave: Nora’s Mix Vol. 2, is coming to an end! Nora’s Mix Vol. 2 will end on Wednesday, November 23rd - don’t forget to spend your remaining Nora’s Mix Vol. 2 Creds before then. Any remaining Nora’s Mix Vol. 2 Creds can be sold for Credits afterward.

Nora’s Mix Vol. 3

Nora ain’t done mixing up the System just yet - Nora’s Mix Vol. 3 is set to launch on November 30th!

Similar to Vol. 2, Nora’s Mix Vol. 3 will continue to sustain our design goals for Nightwave! We feel that Nightwave is in a great place for new players and continuing players alike. You can read more about our Nightwave philosophy in our post from earlier this year!

Like previous editions of Nightwave, we will be including duplicate protection for rewards that you have already unlocked. Identical to Nora’s Mix Vol. 2, Tenno can expect to be compensated with Nora’s Mix Vol. 3 Creds instead of the previous unlocked reward.

New & Returning Acts!
We have both new and returning Acts for Nora’s Mix Vol. 3! You may have noticed some Nightwave Acts have not appeared in a while. We have found the issue which hid these challenges, and are reintroducing them into the rotation for Nora’s Mix Vol. 3.

The newest weekly Act is...

Archon Hunter
Complete an Archon Hunt

New Rewards!
Of course, what is a challenge without a reward...

For completing Nightwave Acts, you can earn these new items:
Excalibur Proto-Armor in Action Glyph

Give your pistol some primeval kick!

Headshots on Eximus enemies increase Secondary Damage by +600% for 10 seconds.

Protokol Tekna Pistol Skin
An ancient look for a reliable pistol.

Gorgon Augment Mod
+90% Magazine Capacity, +90% Ammo Maximum. Inflicting 20 cumulative attacks on an enemy with petrify them for 5s.

Protokol 95 Pistol Skin
A real beauty from a former age.

Protokol Spectre Pistol Skin
In this distant past, pistols of this kind packed a mean punch.

Proto Necramech Skin
The metallic substance that makes up this Voidrig casing seems to predate the Orokin empire itself.

Also included is a hand-picked selection of rewards from previous Nightwave Series! Plus, spend your hard-earned Nora’s Mix Vol.3 Cred in Nora’s store, which now offers Styanax’s Agogean, Synmora, and Gerousic Helmet Blueprints.

**All rewards listed above are subject to change or removal.
______

There will be a bit of downtime after Nora’s Mix Vol. 2 ends as we prepare for her next installment with Vol. 3! Once again, remember to spend your remaining Nora’s Mix Vol. 2 Cred before November 23rd at 2pm ET when Nightwave: Nora’s Mix Vol. 2 will end! Please keep in mind that everything listed above is subject to change!

Echoes of Veilbreaker: Hotfix 32.1.3

Ven’kra Tel & Sprag Fixes:

We have fixed script errors triggered by Kahl Breaking Veils that resulted in mission issues for both Ven’kra Tel & Sprag. These script errors also prevented both the “Find and defeat Ven’kra Tel” and “Find and defeat Sprag” Challenges from being achievable.

That said, upon login, 15 Stock will be sent via Inbox for those who have the respective incompletable Challenge noted above in “Prison Break” or the “Junk Run” Break Narmer missions.

Both Challenges will also be swapped to "Complete" in the Challenge tracking screens.

Break Narmer Mission Changes & Fixes:

• Fixed Break Narmer missions being able to be played with other players - these missions are designed to be single player only.

• Fixed the mines in Sprag’s arena remaining active while appearing inactive after Kahl dies.

• Fixed being unable to complete the IO, Jupiter Defense Archon Hunt mission due to a friendly Shockwave Moa spawning.

• Fixed offset issues with the Asa (default and Phased), Deru, Hecate, Graxx Spitfire, Ki'Teer Straed, Despot Cape, Harkonar (default and Wraith), Kuva Cloak, Massif Prime, Yamako (default, Rubedo and Prisma), Quaro, Suparna, Synkra, Thorac, Vexillus Cloak, Yomo, and Stratum Syandanas when equipped on the male Drifter.
