Changes

• Made the following changes to how Mod Configs appear in Teshin’s Cave:
  • Warframes and Weapons now default to Mod Config A if it uses 40+ capacity (raw drain of Mods installed), rather than defaulting to another Config with the highest capacity. If Config A is not using 40+ capacity, it will default to the highest capacity Mod Config as before.
    • Our original intentions were to always default to the Config with the highest capacity with the theory being that Config was the most effective. After reviewing feedback, this choice caused some confusion, so we have swapped Mod Config A to be the default as commonly Config A is the “main” Config.
  • Mod Configs with Aura and Stance Mods that cause capacity drain are no longer disqualified from being the default. 
• Added the total number of active Decrees when selecting a new one to better see your collection at a quick glance.
• When “Melee with Fire Weapon Input” is enabled in the settings, using the default Melee input will now trigger Drifter’s Quick Shot while in Duviri.
  • This is a follow up change to the fix from Hotfix 33.0.1 (Fixed “Melee with Fire Weapon Input” preventing Drifter from being able to perform Quick Shots), as Quick Shot was able to be performed but was still using the fire input instead of the intended melee input while this setting was enabled. 
  • Also fixed the Drifter Melee “Combat Tips” incorrectly saying to use weapon fire input for Quick Shot when the “Melee with Fire Weapon Input” is enabled.
    • It will now correctly call out the Melee input binding when toggled on. 
• The Prisma Lenz is now tradeable! 
• Added an “Add Friend” button to the profile on-hover dropdown.
• Added a “Copy Suit Colors” button to the Drifter Syandana and Attachments customization screens. 
• Changed the descriptions of the following Decrees to highlight the differences between their mechanics and improve readability (shorten):
  • Venomous Touch:
    • Old: “Every third melee attack deals X% Toxin Damage with guaranteed Status Chance.”
    • New: “Every third melee attack deals X% Toxin Damage.”
      • Note: The guaranteed Status Chance still occurs! 
  • Critical Frost:
    • Old: “Critical Hits deal X% Cold Damage with a guaranteed Status Effect.” 
    • New: “Critical Hits deal an extra hit with X% Cold Damage.”
      • Note: The guaranteed Status Chance still occurs!
• Changed Luscinia’s line after being defeated as Orowyrm – you’ll just have to fight her again during the Sorrow Spiral to hear it! 
• Added weapon name to the confirmation prompt when installing an Incarnon Genesis.
  • Ex: “Are you sure you want to install an Incarnon Genesis on Prisma Skana?”
•  Improved the VFX on Drifter’s “Guiding Hand” ability.

Optimizations

• Made broad game optimizations to save 10 MB of memory. 
•  Fixed small hitches caused by transmissions during Steel Path Void Fissure missions. 
•  Fixed long hitch that would occur when loading into the game with the Dark Split-Sword equipped

Fixes

•  Fixed being unable to interact with the Kaithes that spawn in the second phase of the Steel Path Orowyrm fight – causing inability to complete it. 
•  Fixed Clients getting stuck as Duviri Drifter (instead of Focus Drifter if unlocked) in the Undercroft after getting pulled in from Landscape and using Transference. 
•  Fixed the following issues when melee blocking as Warframe using Drifter Melee weapons (e.g. Syam):
  •  Fixed damage from enemy projectiles not being 100% blocked while blocking. 
  •  Fixed enemy projectile weapons bouncing back at whoever fired them (intended only for Drifter for Parrying Dax arrows). 
• Fixed pick-up rewards from completing the Enigma near The Archarbor falling off the island, leaving Clients unable to recover them. 
•  Fixed case where some of the co-op bridge Enigma VFX elements would not show up. 
•  Fixed some Enigma interactive elements having a very small trigger. 
•  Fixed the Rank 2 Endurance Drifter Intrinsic “Restorative Decree” (gaining a Decree fully restores Health and Energy) not applying to Warframe in the Undercroft. 
•  Fixed the Rank 1 Endurance Drifter Intrinsic “Fortifying Decree” (each active Decree grants +25 Health to Drifter) not applying until after you dismount from Kaithe. 
•  Fixed the “Irresistible Bombardment” Decree (each shot briefly increases fire rate by +10% cumulatively) increasing fire rate from melee attacks.
•  Fixed Clients at times seeing other players’ Drifters without bodies after loading into the Duviri landscape or Undercroft. 
•  Fixed Kaithe remaining in the landscape without a rider after Client leaves the squad.
  •  Also fixes Host being able to ride the Kaithe and it going invisible and returning Client going invisible after dismounting that same Kaithe. 
• Fixed dead players seeing the Undercroft countdown timer (as they cannot participate themselves). 
•  Fixes towards enemies not spawning in the Undercroft (Circuit and Duviri) after Host Migration – causing failure for missions like Survival and Excavation that require you kill enemies for Life Support Capsules.
  •  More fixes to come for this as it has not been fixed 100% – there is also the related issue of the UI objective text disappearing as well that we are looking into. 
• Fixed the Sprint binding for Kaithe not updating in the UI callouts if changed to something other than the default. 
•  Fixed binding callout to throw Enigma disk being incorrect while in Melee-only mode in Duviri. 
•  Fixed Drifter spawning on the other side of the bridge with no Kaithe in The Duviri Paradox Quest after jumping off of it – causing halt in quest progress as Kaithe is required to complete further stages. 
•  Fixed the Primary and Secondary weapons in Teshin’s Cave not being selectable when standing right on top of them in “The Prince of Fire” stage of The Duviri Paradox Quest. 
•  Fixed previewing Protovyre customizations on your Drifter in Teshin’s Cave granting the ability to make progress on and even complete the associated challenges. Completing the challenge would send the next evolution’s item, even if the base version was not owned.
  •  We are working on a script to address affected accounts – we will update you here once we have the details and start time. 
• Fixed rare case of player loading back into Duviri (after rejoining session) with a completely random loadout. 
•  Fixed being unable to summon Kaithe after being pulled into the Undercroft while trying to complete a Ghost Mirror Enigma. 
•  Fixed double clicking the “Reroll Decrees” button displaying your newly rolled Decrees upside down.
  •  ¿uʍop ǝpᴉsdn sƃuᴉɥʇ pɐǝɹ oʇ ǝq plnoʍ ʇᴉ pɹɐɥ ʍoɥ ǝuᴉƃɐɯᴉ noʎ plnoƆ 
• More fixes related to the Komi issue from Hotfix 33.0.2 that was causing a script error when attempting an “illegal” move (diagonal placements for example). 
•  Fixed players being unable to summon their Kaithe after dying during the Drifter combat tutorial in The Duviri Paradox Quest.

  •  Fixed resources and rewards not saving after a new Host leaves Duviri after a previous Host migration. 
  •  Fixed Host migration causing the new Host to lose resources and rewards after earning a new Decree and extracting using the “Leave Duviri” option.

•  Fixed being unable to start the Steel Path Circuit if the regular reward path had not been selected. 
•  Fixed Grendel’s Regurgitate slowing enemies with Overguard.
  •  Enemies with Overguard are intended to be immune to slow effects. However, if Overguard is cleared while Regurgitate’s slow is active, then it will apply to the target for the remaining duration.  
•  Fixed Protea being unable to pick up her Grenade fans while in the Undercroft. 
•  Fixed Garuda’s Seeking Talons Slash damage triggering Exodia Force and causing significant lag issues.
  •  This was due to the hundreds of damage instances created by this looping interaction. Similar to the Update 32.2 change to Saryn’s Toxic Lash with Exodia Force, this was a necessary fix to prevent rampant performance issues. 
•  Fixed Voidrig and Bonewidow becoming disarmed after switching to Pugil mode.
  •  This was an issue with the “swap weapons” binding being unintentionally enabled for Necramechs – it is now disabled again. Swiping with Pugil can be done by using the melee binding as intended.
• Fixed unintended and extreme high damage from casting Thermal Sunder over and over again using Wukong (infused from Helminth) while there is a Gauss present (Player and Specter).

•  Fixed frame rates being out of sync on Cinematics and other videos when played at fullscreen, potentially causing visual distortions.  
•  Fixed several Syndicate Medallions and other loot spawning inside of the ceiling in the Corpus Ship tileset (specifically in Rescue missions). 
•  Fixed Maw Feeding counting towards the “Cold Steel” Elite Weekly Nightwave Act. 
•  Fixed the “Friendly Fire” Nightwave Act being a Daily instead of Weekly Act and vice versa for the “Confiscated” Act. 
•  Fixed the Nightwave Rank-up SFX and VFX not playing when opening up the Nightwave screen after gaining enough reputation.
•  Fixed Excalibur’s Purging Slash Augment Mod description showing 100% Shields Restore instead of the intended 70% after using Slash Dash on allies.

Warframe Update 33.0.12 – Full Patch Notes Listed

Alongside the beefy 33.0.11 update, the Warframe 33.0.12 hotfix provides some quick UI fixes and chat linking issues.

Fixes

• Fixed several soft lock issues caused by various UI elements, such as:
  • Inputting letters into numeric fields (e.g. when blending Drifter faces and making slider adjustments in Captura). 
  • Clearing text fields in settings. 
  • Adding decimal points in text fields (this was due to a fix from today’s earlier hotfix that rounded up crazy long decimal points, for the sake of preventing crashes, we’ve reverted this fix for the time being). 
• Fixed being unable to chat link the Belric and Rania Crystal Fragments from Mirror Defense missions.
