In order to open it you need to have the correct Dragon Key equipped.

You know you’ve found one when you see this fancy looking door: Keep your eyes open and search every nook and cranny as they are quite well hidden at times. You can only find these in Orokin Vaults, special treasure rooms that spawn inside all Deimos missions (formerly known as Orokin Derelict) except for Defense, Assassinate and the Cambion Drift.

Especially the frame-mods, of which there are five as seen above, are must-haves for any frame that benefits from huge amounts of a certain stat while not really needing or even not actually wanting one or more of the others (Nova comes to mind, whom I usually mod for maximum Ability Duration and as little Ability Range as possible).

Keep in mind however that not every mod will be on this list, not even close these are just the ones that any Warframe player should aim to get – in my personal opinion – because they make life much easier and/or enable builds or tactics that aren’t possible without them. So without further ado, here’s my little guide to rare mods in Warframe, rare in this case meaning You need to know how to acquire them, not necessarily that the mods are of gold rarity (many of them are though). Of course I could just point you to the game’s excellent wiki, but since I’ve already done the legwork I figured I might as well spare you the hassle.

You can play the game for months and still not own even a single copy of a specific mod, even though it might be a supposedly ‘common’ one. Turns out though that many mods don’t just drop anywhere. When I wrote my beginner’s overview of how mods work in Warframe I knew that, up to that point, I’d barely scratched the surface.Īt the very least I’d grasped the system of mod rarity – bronze for common, silver for uncommon and gold for rare – or so I thought.
