Lavos was added to Warframe nearing on 6 years ago (December 2020) and has never stopped being reliable for me. I have to wonder what an augment for his 4 could be like.
Interested in seeing Soulframe from a new player perspective? Join me live later today to see how the game unfolds with ZERO external support/guides. Purely game guided gaming! www.twitch.tv/thekengineer
Railjack Steel Essence got nerfed in Warframe. While the Eximus drops were absolutely not balanced, 2/mission (unaffected by boosters) is too low. I would favour +1 per proxima tier (2 on Earth, 5 on Uranus, 8 on Veil) to acknowledge the longer duration of those missions.
Want to snag a Styanax Prime Access pack? I'm doing a free giveaway draw LIVE today on Twitch, plus 11 runner up forma bundle prizes! Join in between 7-10pm UK for a chance to win. Prime Access provided by Digital Extremes; Forma bundles provided by TheKengineer
Since the days of slash/viral or bust are behind us, some don't recall the power of Corrosive Projection. A max armor enemy has 10x EHP thanks to armor. One of these auras makes that 5.4x. Two players and it's 3.6x. Three for 2.6x, four for 1.9x. Stack them up for ~5x damage!
Ability card for Pacify and Provoke in Warframe. The stats show modified values including maximum efficiency, highly increased range, but minimum strength. Notably the enemy Damage Multiplier is changed from 0.5x to 5x, massively increasing enemy damage instead of reducing it.
You can silence all primaries and secondaries in Warframe to make enemies oblivious to your shots. A silent rocket launcher is indeed a thing! It's a little harder to make gunblades go unnoticed, mind you. No mod for that.
Fun fact, there is such a thing as "too much damage" in Warframe. This is when you have to refer to the ee.log file to know just what level of crime against game balance you committed. Why do I have this on hand? No reason...
What's your best solo time on Follie's Hunt? I feel like 3:12 went pretty well (Pre-hotfix, so lower Atramentum)
Answering the Warframe question that nobody asked: What happens when you cast a Tauron Strike while on an ice field in the Void?
Trading syndicate augments in Warframe? A lot of people don't know that you can list a trade for the syndicate as a whole. For buyers, this can often be at a discount over the specific mod.
While niche, I would like for today's Warframe devstream to include a solution to Blitz Eximus one shotting defense objectives. This is stage 3 of EDA; not exactly a quick mission to repeat.
COLLAB STREAM ALERT I am joined by Brozime, YourLuckyClover, and ZenosFire in a stream of R.E.P.O, going live just minutes after this announcement. Pop over to Twitch to catch it live!
@paizo.com worked with @warframe.com to bring us the wonderful Operation Orias! With just the Player Core and Operation Orias (hardcopy or PDF) you're good to go. But for MORE, the GM Core gives a lot of extra tools, like retooling the Moa from level 1 to 3 if you brought level 5 players. #ad

With QTCC wrapping up for 2025, I can only repeat my overwhelming gratitude for the amount of support and genorosity from this community! Over $7000 raised on this channel, and over $300k from the Warframe community as a whole, in this quest to conquer cancer. Thank you ALL!
Oh what I would give for an option to select a loadout in Duviri's circuit. Even if it had reduced circuit progress and/or required max intrinsics. I just want to verify some builds work as intended without rerolling 5/63 Warframe options 1 round at a time.
What an ABSOLUTE BLAST of a stream! • Over $6k raised now for QTCC! • Amazing quiz showing from Zach! • Y'all hugged my giveaway bot to death in a way that has never happened before! (Already bug fixing it) Thank you for being such an incredible community! Every core goal unlocked! Stretch goals? 🤔
By the void... 5 days in to QTCC and we've already raised OVER $3000 IN THIS COMMUNITY! Words cannot express how grateful I am to have such a generous community stepping up to help support such an important goal (ie, the Quest to Conquer Cancer) Let's keep this momentum going!
We've hit over $1,000 raised for QTCC! In fact, we're over $1,300 raised!! This unlocks a series of community rewards, may of which will be indulged in on today's livestream, and brings us close to many others. I'll be live from about 2 hours after this post goes up at www.twitch.tv/thekengineer
I'm joining Team Warframe in the Quest to Conquer Cancer! This kicks off live on stream today with plenty of community rewards waiting to be claimed following your support. Check out further details here: www.thekengineer.com/qtcc-2025
RuneScape's new Leagues is here! (with slight delay). I'm diving in the moment it gets started for my own journey and you can join me live at www.twitch.tv/thekengineer to see it as it happens! (This is an extra stream, not replacing the Warframe schedule)
Join me live on Twitch on August 30th from 5pm UTC for a custom Dungeons and Dragons adventure set in the Warframe universe's Tau system. I'll be joined by DE's Connor, Uday, and Taylor, as well as @brozime.bsky.social & YourLuckyClover This is a fan-made non-canon adventure. Art by CrownedLadybug

Tenno's Tome of Warframes v1.2 is now available! Oraxia has been added at all four tiers, including a Scuttler stat block, wall latch passive, scaling web predicament, and buffed effects when facing weakened foes. Download the entire document for free at www.thekengineer.com/warframe-dd
If you use the Warframe accessibility setting to continuously fire semi-auto weapons, you may have noticed it stop working with Isleweaver. As a temporary workaround, enable it for BOTH mouse and controller to restore functionality.
Do some videos look blocky and low quality? YouTube may give you a poor format, but you can fix this in 20 seconds! In your browser go to settings. Navigate to the Playback and performance section. Switch to Prefer AV1 for SD. This should give you the cleaner VP9 format on 720p and above.
With update 38.6, Valence Formation and similar now correctly boost status proc damage. They're always an element bonus, additive with element mods for direct AND proc damage. It no longer adds to status proc damage mods. These buffs are still non-combining. As such this now seems fully fixed!
