Ceres

"The Grineer have expanded their empire into this region."

- In-game description

 is a planet where the Grineer are the controlling faction. Ceres is also home to the Grineer Shipyard tileset, which was first featured in the Tethra's Doom event and then implemented permanently in Update 13. Ceres was also the first planet to have Hijack missions available, also introduced in Tethra's Doom.

The Ceres Nav Segment can be obtained, along with the Pluto Nav Segment, by defeating the Hyena Pack, located on Psamathe, Neptune. Note that when you install one of these two segments for the first time, you cannot install the other until after leaving the Liset and returning (either by entering a Mission or exiting and relaunching the game).

The vital target of this dwarf planet is Lieutenant Lech Kril, who can be found in the mission Exta and where the blueprints for the parts of the Frost Warframe can be obtained. He also has a higher than average chance to drop Orokin Cells.

Ceres does not currently have a Tenno Relay player hub.

Enemies
Invasion Missions: The Corpus will appear as a "Sideable or Opposing" faction while the Infested will always appear as an "Opposing" faction during Invasion missions. Spy Missions: Special enemy variants have a chance of spawning during Spy missions. Survival Missions: The following lists below do not apply to Survival missions.

Tips

 * Kiste and Nuovo are excellent missions to look for Orokin Cells.
 * Draco is an excellent node to obtain Syndicate standing as there is a high enemy spawning density there.
 * Particularly if you are playing alone, make sure that you have all four base elements (,, , and ) on your weapons, as Prosecutor Guardsmen enemy types are only vulnerable to one specific element
 * Try to build towards having one base element on your primary weapon, one on your secondary weapon, another on your melee weapon, and a final base element on your sentinel weapon.
 * Secondary, combined elements (,, and ) have no effect on Guardsmen.
 * In the event that players do not have the necessary elemental damage to attack Prosecutors, they are also vulnerable to damage, though not to the same degree as the element they are weak to.

Trivia

 * Ceres is the only known dwarf planet in the inner solar system, and may have liquid water, which is possibly why it was chosen as a planet with missions.
 * Missions on Ceres are named after different Roman/Greek-relations and numerous asteroids.
 * Ceres is the highest-leveled Grineer-controlled planet in game.
 * Ceres is a very interesting and strategic point for the Grineer to build their ship building operation. Due to the dwarf planet being located in the Asteroid Belt, the Grineer can easily mine the bounty of Mineral and Metal-rich Asteroids to fuel their operations. The small planet also has plenty of ice, and the Grineer have warmed the temperature to allow water to flow.
