The launch of The Sacrifice back in July 2018 was the last Mainline update to go out, and it was no doubt a hefty one. There was much for the entire DE team to comb through and we find this to be the case with all Mainlines. As we say with all Mainlines, we can’t catch everything that may fall through the cracks, and even with all of the PC hotfixes that went live prior to the release of this update, there is a possibility you may see some WIP or unintentional things that are not meant to be live.

C̶̹̃h̴̊̍̐͜i̶͓̩͛̽m̸̨̈́͘e̴̤̒ŕ̸͉͋̕å̸̙̭͕: has come….

Arbitrations: Lethal Alerts

A new type of challenge is available to players that have completed the entire Solar Map! If you have not completed the entire Solar Map, you can go to the Arbiters of Hexis Enclave in any Relay and talk to the NPC located at the front of the room. They will tell you what nodes in the Star Chart you must complete to unlock Arbitrations!

ARBITRATIONS are here, read on to learn everything you need to know!

The Arbiters of Hexis are providing you with the chance to fight with something unknown to most Warframe missions: Mortality! Arbitrations are single-life missions that put you in a scenario where you have to make your only life count!

Every hour you’ll be presented with a new Arbitration.

  • These missions are always Endless!
  • Rewards are earned at double-the-usual interval (every 10 Defense waves, every 10 Survival minutes), etc.
  • Rewards are on an ABCCCCCCCCCCC (repeat C to infinity) rotation.
  • Any A/B/C interval reward you receive is kept after you die or fail the mission (anything picked up off the ground is lost though)!
  • Missions feature a new Arbiter-themed drone enemy that effectively shields nearby enemies. A keen team will coordinate to take these protective units out!
  • Each successful interval will earn you a new “Vitus Essence” resource that can be used to build some new cosmetic items offered by an Abiters NPC in the their respective Arbiters Enclave in any Relay.
  • PER PLAYER BOONS! Every Arbitration features a custom boon to you! A given Warframe and Weapon will receive substantial bonuses if used.
    • 31e767a76d3789213733ebb3ea32415d.JPG&key

Endless Arbitration missions play out a little differently for an added challenge…

Survival: Life Support Capsules are worth 75% of what they’re normally worth!
Interception: Towers controlled by enemies fill the “Opponent” progress bar at double the rate!
Defense: You’re protecting an NPC and have much less downtime between waves!
Excavation: Increased Defense time to 3:00!
Defection: Rescue targets have no revive state!
Infested Salvage: Consoles have half their normal Health!

Unique Rewards can be found within Arbitrations, including:

  • 6 x Mods:
    • Sharpshooter (Sniper): +15 Energy on Headshot Kill
    • Cautious Shot (Unique): -90% Self Damage, -15% Total Damage
    • Power Donation (Aura): -30% Ability Strength, +30% Ability Strength for teammates
    • Vigorous Swap (Warframe): On Equip: +165% damage for 3s, +100% Holster Speed
      • Vigorous Swap will deactivate when an Ability weapon is active (Mesa’s Peacemaker, Valkyr’s Hysteria, etc).
    • Rolling Guard (Warframe): On Dodge: Become invulnerable for 3s and remove all Status Effects. 7s cooldown.
    • Adaptation (Warframe): When Damaged: +10% resistance to that Damage Type for 20s. Stacks up to 90%.
  • Arbitration exclusive Resource known as ‘VITUS ESSENCE’ used for crafting Arbitration Cosmetics!

XB1 Chimera: Update 23.10.6 (In Cert!)

C̶̹̃h̴̊̍̐͜i̶͓̩͛̽m̸̨̈́͘e̴̤̒ŕ̸͉͋̕å̸̙̭͕ is coming…

Update 23.10.6 has been sent off to cert! This mainline update is jam packed with all kinds of hotness and featured goods from PC Update 23.9.0 to 23.10.6. From the new Arbitrations (previous WIP title of Lethal Alerts) to the Daily Tribute changes, QOL changes and fixes, and everything in between, Update 23.10.6 is a hefty ~2.5GB worth of the latest for Warframe.

What is a mainline update you ask? To quote [DE]Rebecca:

“It’s the type of update where we send out everything we’ve been working on that’s accumulated that isn’t related to a bigger picture feature.”

Our last mainline update for consoles was back in July with the release of The Sacrifice, so you can expect a good helping of notes once the update drops!

This thread will be updated with the release date once we have passed Cert. With all that said, let’s take a glimpse into what Chimera: Update 23.10.6 will bring:

Coming Soon! CAN YOU SURVIVE THE ARBITRATIONS?

Gear up with two new Weapons for new high-level Alerts!

The Chimera Update brings the new Arbitrations: Lethal Alert system, the new Daily Tribute 2.0, new Precepts and more.

ARBITRATIONS: LETHAL ALERTS

The Arbiters of Hexis have a new challenge for you, Tenno. Complete their Arbitrations, and they’ll reward you in kind.

After completing the Star Chart, you’ll unlock a new Mission Type called Arbitrations. Survive against Level 60+ enemies to earn new rewards and bigger payouts than normal Alerts. These Alerts rotate between endless Missions around the Star Chart every hour. But there’s a catch — you only get one life. No Revives. You die, and that’s it. These Alerts also add a few other wrinkles to the gameplay, but we’ll let you discover those on your own.

In addition to bigger reward payouts, completing these Alerts will also give you Vitus Essence, a Resource used to build new cosmetic items. Seek out the Arbiters in the Relay to learn more.

DAILY TRIBUTE REWARDS 2.0

We’ve updated our Daily Login System to give you more choice and more appropriate reward scaling as you delve deeper into the game.

Milestones
On major Milestone days (every 50 days between 0-1000), you’re now given up to three choices! For example, when you reach a Primed Mod Milestone, you’re given a choice between three different Primed Mods rather than the static, singular choice in the old system.

The Milestone categories are:

– Sigils and Resources: Days 50, 150, 250, etc.
– Primed Mods: Days 200, 400, 600, etc.
– Weapons: Days 100, 300, 500, etc.

The next time you reach a given Milestone category, you’ll see a new item appear in place of what you’ve already chosen (if applicable).

Daily Tribute Reward Scaling
Rewards on non-Milestone Days now scale based on the amount of days you’ve logged on. For example, on Day 1, you could get one Tellurium, but on Day 1000, you could get six Tellurium! This applies to Credits, Endo, Booster Durations, Resources, Syndicate Medallions, Relics and Forma Blueprints.

Evergreen
Starting at Day 1050, you’ll receive Evergreen Milestones with three rewards to choose from. These are rotated every 50 Days though the following options:

Evergreen Choices A (choose one):
– 3 x Forma
– 3 x Exilus Adapter
– 4 x Weapon Slots

Evergreen Choices B (choose one):
– 50,000 Kuva
– 30,000 Endo
– 7-Day Boosters (Affinity, Credits, Resource)

Evergreen Choices C (choose one):
– 3 x Rifle Riven
– 3 x Melee Riven
– 3 x Secondary Riven

DOJO UPDATES & DESIGN CONTEST

Tenno, we’re floored by your incredible Dojo works of art. To aid in your conquest of the Dojo artform, we’ve created a massive Sandbox Room for you to dream big! Think of this room as a blank canvas to work with. You could create a bustling Arcade, build an Ayatan dragon, craft a shrine to Rhino Prime — whatever you want to make, you can make it here! We’ve also added 41 new effects (like falling leaves, flies and sparks) and seven new structural decorations to help bring your artistic vision to life.

Speaking of artistic vision, we’re hosting a Dojo Decoration Contest! You could win an exclusive Trophy for your Clan, and even better, your Dojo could be featured on the Star Chart for everyone to visit! Visit the official contest thread for more details.
