Warframe 1999, the latest expansion from Digital Extremes, introduces an exciting new character for players to farm and craft: the Cyte-09. This adept marksman comes equipped with a formidable sniper rifle and supports teammates with powerful ammo drops that enhance elemental damage. For players seeking to inflict high damage from a distance, Cyte-09 is undoubtedly a top-tier choice.
This guide aims to equip players with the necessary steps to acquire the Cyte-09 Blueprint and its parts, alongside a look into the new adventure that unlocks this unique Warframe. Let’s first explore the new adventure and how to successfully unlock the Cyte-09 Blueprint.
How to Obtain the Cyte-09 Blueprint in Warframe 1999
To initiate the journey for acquiring Cyte-09, players must first complete the new adventure, titled “The Hex.”This mission transports you back to an alternate reality on December 31, 1999, where you’ll assist Arthur Nightingale (the original Excalibur) and his team as they race through the chaotic streets of Höllvania to find Albretch Entrati.
While the Hex mission is relatively straightforward, players should be prepared for a lengthy experience—lasting around an hour—during which other game activities will be temporarily inaccessible. A password is required to start the quest: KALYMOS.
Upon entering the mission, you will assume control of Arthur Nightingale, equipped with abilities of the standard Excalibur Warframe, an AX-52 Rifle, and a Vesper 77 Pistol, among other gear.
How to Complete The Hex in Warframe 1999
Completing the full questline can be done within approximately one hour, and here are the key objectives players must complete:
- Happy Y2K!: Locate Albretch Entrati while fending off Scaldra forces.
- Exterminate: Eliminate all Scaldra foes to clear a path for Arthur and his crew to rescue Entrati from Rusalka and Vodyanoi.
- Hell-Scrub – 10-Minute Survival: Hold off Techrot (Infested) enemies for a specified time and use beacons to restore life support.
- Chase The Prisoner Transport: Use an RPG to blast the convoy and rescue Entrati while taking cover from Rusalka’s assaults.
- Decision Time: Make a choice from three options; the endings will not differ significantly.
- Who’s On Point: Select any Protoframe for a subsequent Extermination mission.
- Utilize Eleonor to destroy Techrot Pods and confront the hivemind queen, Legacyte.
- Cutscene in the Zariman: Follow echoes while exploring the Zariman, revealing deeper truths.
- Party of Your Lifetime: Join Amir and the crew to infiltrate the reactor until you reach the final cutscene.
To craft Cyte-09, players will require the Neuroptics, Chassis, and Systems along with one Orokin Cell.
Farming Parts for Cyte-09 in Warframe
To acquire the necessary components for Cyte-09, players should return to the Höllvania Shopping Mall and complete the new syndicate missions. These missions offer players an opportunity to gather special materials vital for leveling up Faction reputation as well as crafting Cyte-09.
The following missions are crucial for farming each part of the new Warframe:
- Energy Overload (Enemy Level 65-70) Survival – Potential Reward: Cyte-09 Chassis Blueprint
- From On-High (Enemy Level 75-80) Survival – Potential Reward: Cyte-09 Neuroptics Blueprint
- Energy Overload (Enemy Level 85-90) Exterminate – Potential Reward: Cyte-09 Systems Blueprint
The advantage of the first two missions being Survival style is the increased chance of obtaining the required parts, given their rotation drop rates. However, Exterminate missions may prove challenging since obtaining Systems can often take longer than the other blueprints.
Crafting Cyte-09 in Warframe
Upon collecting all necessary blueprints for Cyte-09, players can proceed to the Orbiter’s Forge for crafting. Here’s a breakdown of the requirements for each part and the respective crafting durations:
- Cyte-09 Chassis Blueprint: Requires 200 Höllvanian Pitchweave Fragments, 6 Experimental Arc-Relays, 8 Techrot Motherboards, 1000 Alloy Plates, and 15,000 Credits. Crafting time: 12 hours.
- Cyte-09 Neuroptics Blueprint: Requires 60 Efervon Samples, 40 Techrot Chitins, 2 Neural Sensors, 1 Argon Crystal, and 15,000 Credits. Crafting time: 12 hours.
- Cyte-09 Systems Blueprint: Requires 20 Efervon Samples, 500 Circuits, 4 Experimental Arc-Relays, 6 Techrot Motherboards, and 15,000 Credits. Crafting time: 12 hours.
- Cyte-09 Warframe: Requires the completed Cyte-09 Chassis, Neuroptics, Systems, 1 Orokin Cell, and 25,000 Credits. Crafting time: 72 hours.
While the Circuits, Credits, and Orokin Cells are relatively easy to acquire even for newcomers, the other components must be harvested from within the Höllvania environment. Be prepared for extensive grinding, but prestigious rewards can also be attained, such as blueprints for weapons and reputation points with The Hex for additional vendor goodies.
Keep in mind that the Argon Crystals needed for the Neuroptics have a 24-hour shelf life in your inventory, making it critical to craft this item as soon as possible.
