Update 33.6: Echoes of Duviri

Echoes of Duviri is a Mainline Update!

Meaning that everything the team has been working on since the launch of The Seven Crimes of Kullervo is in this update (with the obvious exception of content that is not ready to be released). It is very likely, as it is with all Mainline updates, that things can slip through the cracks so we will be looking at reports here for any fixes and changes for follow-up Hotfixes to come.

If any of the terms above are new to you, visit “The Warframe Lexicon for Updates” to learn more about Warframe’s development cycle.

The total download sizes for this update are as follows:

• PlayStation 4: 16.4 GB
• PlayStation 5: 6.87 GB

PS4 Remaster: 
The large download size (~16.4 GB) for this update is due to the remastering of textures in the game, which will reduce the overall size of Warframe on PS4 from ~42 GB down to ~40 GB once the Update has finished downloading.

TennoGen
The Liset Vammatar Skin by Ventralhound is also now available on consoles!

General: 

• Fixed Emblems attaching on the arms instead of shoulders on the Oberon Obsidian Skin.
• Replaced the 3125 Platinum pack with the 3210 Platinum pack in the PlayStation EU store to be on-par with other regions and consoles.

Missed Notes of Code Fixes from The Seven Crimes of Kullervo: 

• Clicking on items in the in-game Market that are purchasable via the PlayStation Store will now open the item’s details in the Market first instead of going straight to the Store. Now when you want to move forward with purchasing after learning the details from the PlayStation Store you simply click “Purchase”.
• Fixed permanently losing your thrown melee weapon if you throw it just before entering an Undercroft portal.
• Fixed Clients experiencing wonky camera positioning after dismounting from K-Drive or Merulina.
• Fixed camera shifting to the last spot you summoned your K-Drive after summoning it again at a distance.
• Fixed respawning in unexpected locations after Host Migration.
• Fixed being unable to purchase from Acrithis’ store in Duviri with resources that you had collected during that session.
• Fixed a rare crash while riding Kaithe.
• Fixes towards a crash that could occur if you were pulled into the Undercroft while a member of your squad was doing Conservation efforts in Duviri.
• Fixed crash when skipping cutscenes in The Duviri Paradox Quest.
• Fixed massive hitch that would occur when leaving Teshin’s Cave back to the Orbiter.
• Fixed a hitch affecting players with most Focus trees unlocked.
• Fixed an extremely rare crash that could occur in the Undercroft.
• Fixed a rare crash that could occur when the Ripkas were unequipped while in Teshin’s Cave.
• Fixed the Rank 1 Endurance Intrinsic “Fortifying Decrees” (Each active Decree grants +25 Health to Drifter) granting more than +25 Health if there are several of the same Decree already active.
• Fixed crash caused by ragdolled enemies.
• Fixed very long hitch that would occur to the third member of a squad when loading into Teshin’s Cave right as Host migration occurs.
• Fixed a rare crash.

UNDERCROFT CHANGES

New Undercroft Tiles:
We have added two new tiles to the Undercroft for you to tackle Warframe combat in: Fractal Pastures and Amphitheatre. The Fractal Pastures is a large open tile with plenty of space for farming Tamms — if it weren’t for the dangers of the Undercroft, that is. With the new Amphitheater tile, you can reminisce about the calming sounds of Shawzins heard on the Duviri landscape, but replace them instead with the cries of your enemies. All five existing game modes are available in the Fractal Pastures and Amphitheatre.

Jackal Assassination is here!
The Undercroft is gaining a sixth game mode available exclusively in the Fractal Pastures: Assassination! No longer in the confines of a Corpus laboratory, The Jackal can be found ruining crops in the Fractal Pastures, devastating the natural beauty with its laser grids and rockets. Take on the Jackal in this newest game mode to reach the Undercroft.

In order for the expected time to complete Assassination to stay in line with other game modes, the Jackal fight has been modified from its original form on Venus. Jackal in the Undercroft will have three phases instead of four, and will be protected by reinforcements between phases.

On defeat, Jackal will drop Rune Marrow and has a chance to drop the Jackal Sigil.

Undercroft Trauma Clamp: 
The Undercroft is a dangerous place, Drifter. Trauma Clamps have begun appearing across the Undercroft that can be used to your advantage.

Trauma Clamps are hazards that can be found throughout the Undercroft. Breaking them open will pull in both Tenno and their foes alike, trapping them for a moment and imparting effects determined by the current Spiral. The range at which players will be drawn in is smaller than that of your enemies, but still take care when activating them. Use these strategically, as only a few spawn per Undercroft Tile. However, as the Void does work in mysterious ways, there is a chance of further Trauma Clamps spawning after a hazard is unleashed.

Thrax’s Spirals will augment Trauma Clamps with the following effects:

• Sorrow: Cold Damage and Status
• Anger: Heat Damage and Status
• Fear: Electricity Damage and Status
• Envy: Toxin Damage and Status
• Joy: Void Damage and Status, plus healing that will seek out nearby players.

 

NEW INCARNON GENESES 

New Incarnon Geneses are being added to the Circuit Steel Path reward path! Once acquired, players can install them into the applicable weapons by visiting Cavalero on the Zariman.

Boar (base and Prime) 
Awaken this weapon’s ability to fire three short-range beams that chain link enemies in Incarnon Form.

Gammacor (base and Synoid)
Awaken this weapon’s ability to fire projectiles that pull enemies into a Cold Damage explosion in Incarnon Form.

Awaken this weapon’s ability to fire embedding projectiles that explode with Heat Damage in Incarnon Form.

Anku
Awaken this weapon’s ability to increase Range and Slash Damage during slide attacks in Incarnon Form.

Circuit Reward Path Rotation Date: Sunday, July 30th 
With respect to current Circuit Reward Path rotation, we wanted to give players fastest access to these new Incarnons as possible. As a result, we are altering the current Steel Path Circuit reward rotation to ensure they show up next week (July 30th).

Here is the updated Offering Rotation Schedule for the Steel Path Circuit:

Week 1: Braton, Lato, Skana, Paris, Kunai (this week’s offerings)
Week 2: (NEW) Boar, Gammacor, Angstrum, Gorgon, and Anku

Week 4: Lex, Magistar, Boltor, Bronco, Ceramic Dagger
Week 5: Torid, Dual Toxocyst, Dual Ichor, Miter, Atomos
Week 6: Ack & Brunt, Soma, Vasto, Nami Solo, Burston
Week 7: Zylok, Sibear, Dread, Despair, Hate

New Incarnon Geneses Acquisition Method: Incarnon Market at Cavalero 
In addition to acquiring these new Incarnon Geneses via the Steel Path Circuit Rewards, they will also be available for purchase at Calavero with Platinum in the Incarnon Market starting the week they are available on the Circuit Reward path.

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.

The “Incarnon Market” option will appear at Cavalero on July 30th once the rotation to the new Incarnon Geneses occur and will be permanently accessible as a one-time purchase for players who have unlocked The Steel Path.

BALANCE IMPROVEMENTS AND QUALITY OF LIFE CHANGES
As first announced in the dedicated Dev Workshop, we have made changes to the following systems:

• Enhanced Damage Numbers
• Overguard for Warframes
• Cold, Impact, and Puncture Status Changes

Enhanced Damage Numbers
Warframe is a numbers game, whether you’re Modding your Warframe or your Weapons to do as much damage as possible. With that in mind, we have introduced a new Enhanced Damage Number setting with the goal of properly communicating the impact of your attacks and increasing the overall legibility of damage numbers in-game.

This new setting can be found in the Interface: HUD Category of your Settings Menu under “Show Damage Numbers.” You can cycle between the new Enhanced system and the familiar Legacy system or turn off damage numbers altogether!

For our visual learning Tenno, take a look at the Enhanced Damage Numbers in action with Lead Game Designer Pablo!

Overall Damage Number Changes:
Whether you are using Legacy or Enhanced Damage Numbers, these new settings will be available with Echoes of Duviri:

Commas in Damage Numbers on Consoles
This was initially released on PC and required some extra work to get on consoles, but now you can see them in all of their glory!

Damage Number Scale
Custom scaling of your damage number text size, from 50 to 300!

Additionally, Damage numbers will no longer scale with HUD scale setting as they used to. So you can customize the HUD and the numbers separately.

Compact Damage Numbers
This Toggle will shorten large numbers for legibility (i.e. 100,357 would be shortened to 100k)

Enhanced Damage Numbers Setting
With this new setting toggled on, players can expect to see the following:

Refreshed Damage Number Appearance
A punchier presentation of damage numbers, with an updated font treatment to improve legibility. For reference of what this looks like in action, refer to Pablo’s video above.

Prioritized Critical Hits
Player damage output varies wildly from damage over time (DOT) from Status Effects to powerful Critical Hits. Previously all types of Damage were treated the same in the Damage Number cycle: meaning, Critical Hit Damage Numbers often disappeared quickly if there were a lot of small DOT procs happening concurrently. From a gameplay side, this had no impact on the actual damage done to your enemies, but it meant the true impact of your Critical Hits was not always communicated to you as clearly as we would like.

Now, your Critical Hits will be prioritized over smaller damage numbers. Those smaller numbers will still appear but now disappear sooner if higher-priority damage is done. Additionally, this prioritization system applies to Critical Hit Tiers as well, meaning Super Critical Hit Damage Numbers will linger longer than regular Critical Hits.

Custom Ability Damage Treatment
Since your Abilities traditionally cannot Crit, these attacks tend to have less oomph. Now Ability Damage has its own Damage Color so that it will stand out amongst the rest!

Like all other Damage Numbers, you can customize Ability Damage colors in the “Customize Hud Colors” menu (found in the Interface category of your Accessibility Settings).

Melee Damage Numbers
With Legacy settings, Damage Numbers appear at the point of contact, often off-screen or otherwise obstructed by Melee attacks.

With Enhanced settings, Melee Damage numbers will now travel with you to improve visibility and will travel with the attack movement as well. Again, this is best illustrated in Pablo’s video for those who want to see this in action!
Player Overguard Improvements
With Duviri came the first instance of Warframes using Overguard, and The Seven Crimes of Kullervo solidified this mechanic as a part of various Warframes’ kits.

Now that players have access to Overguard consistently, we have made some adjustments to improve the quality of life in this new health state:

Consistent Proc Immunity
Due to the variety of sources of Overguard, there were occasionally inconsistencies in how it behaved in regard to Proc Immunity. With Echoes of Duviri, all sources of Player Overguard will offer Full Proc Immunity while active.

Overguard Depletion Protection
Similar to Shields, Player Overguard will now offer a brief moment of invulnerability (currently 0.5s) once depleted. This window will prevent players with Overguard from being one-shot, as damage to Overguard will no longer carry over into your Health or Shield pool once depleted.

Upon launch, we will closely monitor feedback on this mechanic change to see if further adjustments are needed.

NOTE: This Overguard Depletion Protection applies only to Player Overguard, not Overguard seen on enemies.

Hit Impact Visuals 
Similar to taking damage to your Health or your Shields, Overguard now has its own unique appearance when attacked. Damage will no longer cause blood splatters while Overguard is active, and we have added a unique metallic hit effect that better communicates having a layered shell protecting you.

Additionally, players will no longer flinch while taking damage with Overguard active.
(NOTE: This has no gameplay function other than looking cool)

Status Changes
With the variety of Status effects in Warframe, there are certain types that may be seen as less favorable than others. Cold, Puncture, and Impact tend to have a lesser impact on the battlefield, so we felt it was time to revisit the value they added to player kits:

Puncture Changes:
Weakened Status Effect Buffs:

• Increased the debuff to enemy attacks from 30% to 40% on the first stack.
• Reduced the maximum amount of stacks from 10 to 5.
• Increased per-stack debuff from 5% to 10%.
• Increased the total debuff at Max Stacks from 75% to 80%.

Weakened Status Effect Additions:

• Increases Critical Chance threshold on enemy by 5% per Stack, to a maximum of 25% at 5 Stacks. This is additive after mods, not before. Does not apply to Abilities or AOE damage.

Impact Changes:
Stagger Status Effect Changes:

• Reduced the maximum amount of stacks from 10 to 5.
• Increased the Mercy Threshold from 4% to 8% per stack.

Functionally, this allows for players to trigger early Mercy kills with less stacks required!

NOTE: These changes should not affect the functionality of Impact Stacks for Mods such as Internal Bleeding or Hemorrhage.

Cold Changes:
Freeze Status Effect Changes:

• Increased the maximum amount of stacks from 8 to 9.
• Increased the additional per-stack Slow from 3.5% to 5%.
• Increased the maximum Slow effect from 75% to 90%.
• While we previously mentioned buffing Cold Slow Effect to 85% in our Citrine’s Last Wish update, we mistakenly only increased it to 75% instead.

Freeze Status Effect Additions:

• Increased the Critical Damage taken by an enemy by 10% on initial Status Effect Subsequent Stacks increase this debuff by 5%, up to a maximum of 50%. This is additive after mods, not before.

 

ADDITIONS:

• Added a “Drifter Mastery” category to the Mastery Breakdown on player profiles.
  • Previously, Drifter Intrinsics were counted in the Railjack Mastery category.
• Added on-hover tooltip in the Melee Combos screen to provide more details (Stats, Status Effects, etc.).
  • 
• You can now purchase additional Appearance Config Slots for your Operator/Drifter! Click on the + icon next to the ABC configs to purchase with Platinum.
• Added a new “Hermit’s Landing” label to the Duviri Minimap.
• Added a pop-up countdown message when players are being teleported to the Confront Kullervo objective in Duviri.

 

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%
  • Sawtooth Clip – Increased Slash Damage from 30% to 90%
  • Shredder – Increased Slash Damage from 30% to 90%
  • Concussion Rounds – Increased Impact Damage from 60% 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.
  • 
• Updated the Platinum and Regal Aya purchase screens to be more streamlined.
  • 
• Common Cambion Drift resources (Ganglion, Lucent Teroglobes, and Pustulite) no longer trigger the special resource notification when picked up in the landscape.
  • These special resource notifications are meant to highlight uncommon or rare pick-ups in-mission. Players will still be able to see common Cambion Drift resources via the regular resource pick-up notification — we’re just saving that special pop-up for harder to find items!
• Removed a feature where certain bosses scaled their level based on your equipped Mods.
  • This is a remnant of an older Warframe system that scaled difficulty based on your Mod loadout. As a result, enemies like Captain Vor might be anywhere from level 10 to 30, depending on how “powerful” your equipped Mods were during your encounter.
  • With this feature removed, now all bosses will always spawn at a consistent level on the regular Star Chart.
• Increased the size of the Polychrome context action so that it’s more accessible at odd angles.
• Blitz Eximus will no longer target Defense Targets with their shockwave attack, but the Defense Target can still be injured by it if hit.

 

OPTIMIZATIONS: 

• Made micro-optimizations to memory footprint in the resource system to save over 70 KB.
• Made micro-optimizations to engine startup and level loading.
• Made systemic micro-optimizations to level loading for all platforms.
• Made optimizations to sound pathing.
• Made systemic micro-optimizations to rendering performance.
• Made optimizations to level loading.
• Made systemic micro-optimizations to the content update system.
• Made small performance fixes when playing The Duviri Paradox Quest.
