How to Earn Nyx in Warframe

Like all base Warframes, Nyx can be purchased for Platinum via the Market, or built in your Foundry using Blueprints earned from specific missions. Nyx's Blueprints can be earned by defeating Phorid — a unique Assassination Target that appears during Phorid Manifestation Invasion missions.

Unlike most bosses, Phorid's location changes depending on the location of the Phorid Manifestation. You can check for a Phorid Invasion by going to the Invasions tab at the top of your Star Chart. You may need to complete certain quests and unlock different planets in your Star Chart first to reach Phorid's current location.

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

You will need to defeat the Phorid multiple times to earn all of the necessary Blueprints for Nyx. The Phorid is guaranteed to drop a Nyx component blueprint every time you defeat it. We've listed the drop chances below, but you can check the full drop chances for these and other items in our Drop Table.

Face off via the Phorid Manifestation Invasion Missions to earn the following blueprints:

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

To obtain the Main Blueprint for Nyx, simply purchase it via the Market for Credits!

You can craft all of these items from the Foundry aboard your Orbiter. Each Warframe component (i.e. the Neuroptics, Chassis, and Systems) requires 12 real-world hours to craft. Whereas Nyx herself requires 72 real-world hours to craft once all three components are ready in your inventory.

How to Get Nyx Prime

Nyx Prime can be purchased from Varzia on Maroo's Bazaar (located on Mars) during Prime Resurgence. You can purchase her directly using Regal Aya or buy Void Relics containing her Blueprints with standard Aya. Standard Aya is acquired from many different activities, including Bounties and completing Missions in The Void.

Likewise, you can trade with other players for the proper Void Relics or Blueprints. Check the Trading channel or ask your Clanmates to find and trade for the Blueprints you need!

Prime Resurgence rotates every few weeks, bringing different Prime Warframes with it, so be sure to check back often to see if the one you want is available!
