Operator

Focus

  • Unairu allows you to be immune to certain controls (Poise, first talent) and self-rez (Last Gasp)
  • Vazarin can make you invincible (Protective Sling)
  • Zenurik for energy regen if needed (find other sources as soon as possible)
  • Madurai useful for operator damage later in the game (boost Tenno damage + power/speed cast for frame)

Survival

The operator can contribute to warframe survival:

  • self-resurrection:
    • via the talent Last Gasp of the Unairu Focus school
    • allows bringing the warframe back to life by killing 3 enemies as operator within 15 seconds
    • available for all operator branches: unlock the passives linked to the path concerned to access them permanently (max rank). Other Way-Bounds passives allow increasing operator damage & survival making resurrection easier.
    • Madurai active skills facilitate operator kills for rez
    • the glaive (Phahd, secondary attack) from the amplifier facilitates rez
  • preventive protection:
    • via the Vazarin talent Protective Sling
    • allows making allied targets (including your warframe) invulnerable for 5s after "dashing" through
    • use Magus Cloud to facilitate the operation
    • very particular / repetitive gameplay & requires Tektolyst unlocked for lvl cap (enemies lvl 9999)
  • enemy control:
    • via the operator arcane Magus Lockdown
    • an operator dash allows creating a mine (max 2) that blocks up to 10 enemies each for 4 seconds within 15 meters

Amplifiers

We describe amplifiers by the number of the Prism, Scaffold and Brace parts, example 111 = Raplak Pencha Clapkra. Meta amplifiers:

Code Part Names Utility Usage
123 Raplak Shraksun Lohrin get started (just Certus rep) beginner
177 Raplak Propa Certus single target / launch an AoE for Vomvalysts pref Eidolons
147 Raplak Phahd Certus single target / launch a glaive for self rez pref Cascade
547 Cantic Phahd Certus single target (multishot) / launch a glaive pref Cascade
747 Klamora Phahd Certus multi-target / launch a glaive SteelPath comfort + OK Cascade

Arcanes

This will mainly be the operator that sometimes needs to be adapted to the content.

Tektolyst / Tauron Artifacts

Tektolyst artifacts are "ultimate weapons" for operators:

  • give access to new mods and arcanes applying to operator weapons:
    • big damage boost, makes "viable" all operator schools at lvl cap (enemies lvl 9999). Without Tektolyst, Madurai is "mandatory" for Cascade cap.
    • arcanes impacting warframe weapons (fire boost on secondary weapons)
    • buffs and ultimate attacks interesting but too random / little used as is
  • accessible after completing the quest The Old Peace, in drops from the gameplay mode Rebellion Perita and Marie's shop
