How to Earn Frost in Warframe

There are two main paths to obtaining a base Frost Warframe: you can either purchase one from the in-game Market for Platinum, or build one in your Foundry using Blueprints from specific Missions. Frost's Blueprints can be earned by defeating Captain Vor and Lieutenant Lech Kril — dual Assassination Targets at the Exta node on Ceres!

To reach them, you'll need to unlock Ceres on the Star Chart. You can do so by completing the following steps:

Unlock the Venus Junction

  • Complete the Saya’s Vigil Quest amongst other tasks to access this Junction!

Unlock the Mercury Junction

  • Complete the Vox Solaris Quest amongst other tasks to access this Junction!

Unlock the Mars Junction

  • Complete the Once Awake Quest amongst other tasks to access this Junction!

Unlock the Ceres Junction

  • Complete the Heart of Deimos Quest amongst other tasks to access this Junction!

Finish Missions on Ceres Until You Reach the Exta Node.

  • The optimal path is: Pallas > Cinxia > Nuovo > Extra

For more information on how to finish these quests and unlock Junctions, see our Warframe Main Story Quest Guide.

The villainous Captain and Lieutenant will need to be defeated multiple times to earn all of the Blueprints necessary for Frost's construction. Vor and Lech Kril are guaranteed to drop a Frost Component Blueprint upon each defeat:

  • Frost Neuroptics Blueprint (38.72% Chance)
  • Frost Chassis Blueprint (38.72% Chance)
  • Frost Systems Blueprint (22.56% Chance)

Frost's Main Blueprint is available from the in-game Market for 25,000 Credits.

Please note: each Frost component (i.e. Neuroptics, Chassis, Systems) requires 12 real-world hours to craft. Frost himself requires 72 real-world hours to craft once you have all three of his Components in your Inventory. You can pay to speed up this process at any time with Platinum.

The Duviri Circuit

Frost's Blueprints are also available via The Circuit after completing The Duviri Paradox Quest. Frost Blueprints can appear as one of three available rewards on a rotating weekly schedule. You will earn these after reaching the following reward tiers:

  • Tier 2: Frost Neuroptics Blueprint

  • Tier 5: Frost Chassis Blueprint

  • Tier 8: Frost Systems Blueprint

  • Tier 10: Main Frost Blueprint

How to Get Frost Prime

Frost Prime can be purchased from Varzia on Maroo's Bazaar (located on Mars) during Prime Resurgence. You can either buy him directly with Regal Aya or use Aya to purchase Void Relics containing his Blueprints. Earn Aya by completing Bounties, Missions in The Void, and more.

You can also trade with other players for Void Relics and/or Blueprints. Check out the in-game Trading channel or ask your Clanmates to find and trade the items you need!

Prime Resurgence rotates every few weeks with a fresh slate of Prime Warframes, so be sure to check back often for the one you want!
