You never know what Warframe tips might end up saving your shiny, wet behind. The action-driven loot game is constantly evolving, adding new stuff, and stripping away old junk! That’s why we’ve put together this handy list of Warframe tips — specifically designed for new players to jump into this incredibly dense, evolving game. Need to know the best way to move around? How about the primary means of powering up your weapons? Learn about all that and more in our Warframe tips guide!

 
 

TIPS

 
1. Learn to Bullet Jump 
Warframe is all about movement, and the quintessential move of the Tenno is the bullet jump. It launches you forward much more quickly than sprinting, and can be chained indefinitely. To perform a bullet jump, crouch while moving to slide, then while still crouching, press the jump key. It takes some getting used to, but you can make things easier by remapping the crouch key. 
 

2. Use Combos Efficiently

 
As you perform melee attacks in Warframe, you’ll notice a little number in the bottom right corner of the screen going up. Once this number hits certain thresholds, multipliers will start appearing next to it. This multiplier does not apply to all of your attacks. Instead, it’s a bonus to damage that will apply to your next heavy attack, spending your entire combo counter in the process. The idea is to build up a big combo, then use a heavy attack to tear apart a tough enemy. Mods can increase your “combo efficiency,” which means that you’ll retain some of your counter even after performing a heavy attack. 
 

3. Pause the Game in Solo Mode

 
Warframe allows you to set your party to public, friends, invite only, and solo. In solo mode, you can actually pause the game by entering the menu, since there’s nobody else in your session to inconvenience by doing so. 
 

4. Skip the Open Worlds and Come Back Later

 
When you’re just starting out in Warframe, you might be drawn to the open-world area on Earth called the Plains of Eidolon. But this content was actually added later in the game’s development, and isn’t meant to be tackled by new players. Feel free to check out the Cetus market and maybe do the Saya’s Vigil quest, but don’t worry about exploring the Plains of Eidolon for now. Later on, you’ll be much better equipped to handle the area’s threats. You’ll also have quicker ways of covering its vast distances. One of these can be found at Fortuna on Venus, which leads to the second open-world zone in Warframe. 
 

5. Understand Mods

 
Mods are the main driver of advancement in Warframe. You can level up frames and weapons to a max of 30, at which point your only means to increase their capabilities is via mods. Each frame, weapon, and companion has a number of mod slots and points, with the former determining how many mods you can install and the latter being a limit on their collective strength. When you start out, you can click on “Actions” in the upgrade screen for a piece of equipment to have the game automatically assign mods to it. Mods are reusable and do not have to be removed from one weapon to be installed in another! 
 

6. Void Relics Contain Delicious Treats

 
You’ll start accumulating objects called Void Relics as you play Warframe. Each relic has a set of items that may be contained within it, typically components for powerful Prime gear. To open a relic, you have to enter a special variant of a mission called a Void Fissure. You find these missions under the little flame icon in the top right corner of the star chart. You’ll be tasked with completing a normal mission type while also collecting 10 Void Traces (little white flame icons) before the end. When you extract, you’ll open your relic and get whatever happened to be inside. But on the screen that shows you that information, you can also choose to get the same reward as another player instead. If another players goes with your drop, you’ll get bonus Void Traces which are used to upgrade relics and give them better odds to drop their rarest items. 
 

7. Elemental Types Matter

 
There are four primary elemental damage types in Warframe (Cold, Heat, Toxin, and Electricity) and six secondary types created by combining primary ones (Blast, Corrosive, Gas, Magnetic, Radiation, and Viral). Different Warframes and weapons inflict different kinds of damage, and some are more effective against certain enemies than others. For instance, Magnetic damage is effective against the shield-using Corpus, but less so against Grineer armor. Each damage type also has an associated status effect, which has a chance to apply to an enemy determined by the weapon’s Status Chance. You don’t need to worry about this too much when you start out, but it’s worth packing multiple damage types between your primary, secondary, and melee weapons to try and cover all of your bases. 
 

8. Watch for Your Daily First Win Bonus

 
Every 24 hours in Warframe, you get a login bonus called the “Daily Tribute.” This is pretty obvious. A friendly NPC will appear onscreen to give you something for free, or a choice of three options. It’s less obvious, but this also signals your “Daily First Win Bonus” is available. This hidden benefit doubles the number of Credits (the game’s primary resource) you receive from the first mission you play per day. So it’s best to make your first mission a good one. Dark Sector missions, which provide bonus resources and are marked on your Star Map with the Warframe logo, are a good place to start. The Profit-Taker boss on Venus is also a tremendous source of income. Though it’s a very late-game enemy. It might not seem like a big deal at first, but Credits quickly become one of the biggest bottlenecks on progress late in the game, as upgrading just one mod to max takes a sizable sum. 
 

9. Start Crafting Forma

 
Forma is a unique resource in Warframe. It’s a crafting material used to make several weapons, sure, but it’s so much more than that. The golden puzzle pieces also let you “polarize” your gear. This adds custom symbols to your mod slots. When you match the symbol of the mod and the slot it’s placed in, that mod costs 50 percent fewer points (called “capacity” in-game). Combined with mods themselves, polarizing slots with Forma is one of the ultimate ways to upgrade your frames and weapons. That means you want a lot of it. Forma blueprints are mostly acquired from Relics, like Prime components, and take 24 hours to craft. So it’s a good idea to start making it sooner rather than later — building up a surplus of Forma for when you reach the endgame. 
 

10. Follow the Junctions

 
Warframe doesn’t give a lot of direction to new players. Even its actual roadmap, the planetary Junctions, don’t call a lot of attention to themselves. But you absolutely want to focus on these when you’re just starting. Check out the Junctions, follow their objectives, and keep unlocking more as you jump from planet to planet. This will introduce you to the game’s many different systems and activities one-by-one.
